4.1 - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Rom 4.1 to be released in the Ark s?

Nope, not from SONY.
No one of the 2011 Xperias will get JellyBean.
You have to flash CyanogenMod10 (CM10) or other AOKP based ROM.
Look on the link in the first line in my signature, in this thread you find a lot of ROMs.

This ROM supports Bravia Thecnologie? If not, will them support in futere? It's possible?

Which ROM ? CM10? Don´t know, have not tested it.
But look in the threads of the ROMs, there you always find a Changelog, or can ask questions there.

Roms jb based. In changelog don't ever write about this

So then ask in the threads of the ROM you want to use

i tryed 50% of roms .but nothing found with this feature

So maybe Bravia engine is just available in stock-based ROMs.
Like HDMI....

HDMI can be replaced with DNLA server or antoher method. I put video in HDusb connected with router and i watch them on tv lcd 40" through router with server DLNA. There are more method for watch video in HD but Bravia engine is not replaceable on the smart.
So maybe Bravia engine is just available in stock-based ROMs.

It's available for all rom ics based but it's maybe not available for rom Jelly Bean based

Yep, that´s what i mean.
No original Sony JB, so no Bravia & HDMI on custom JB.
I really hope Sony will give the driversources to the XDA-Devs... would be great if they don´t want make a 4.1/4.2 stockROM. :fingers-crossed:
Well, DLNA is an option, and i also use it, but it´s cool to watch movies at a friend just using the miniHDMI/HDMI cable at a friend who has no network attached TV.

I agree with you though i don't think that Sony give their source, at least until they have updated their devices to jb

Yea, but i don´t think that they ever will do that for us Xperia2011 owner, even if the 2012 all have their JB.
Maybe they are afraid that the XDA-Devs do the better job than their programmers.... :laugh:
and there also will probably be copyright things with qualcomm and other companys.

here is rom with bravia engine in it.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1382174
I tried modding it and i bekieve its working . Its doesnt create wonders or turns your sgs into sgs2, but still will make ui a bit smoother and photos and icons a bit clear and crisper.
It really does improve video playback on your phone. I tried SGS1 and my videos are clearer and have better colors

Maybe i get the hole thing wrong, but is the bravia engine not some sort of image post-processing? so how can it improve ui smoothness? if at all, it should slow down the phone as it has to process the images before they are displayed

But voodoo colour ruins dark images
+1
totally support this.voodoo colour produces good results in some particular settings but bravia engine is way better and the colours are really vibrant.
how to install ? CWM ?

I dont have a flashable zip right now. I dont even have a rooted phone right now to make on. So ill include it in my next rom. Btw if someine has better knowledge about this then pls comment here as i dont feel that i enabled it properly.
Flash this via CWM This .zip works on every rom that is rooted ( AOSP / CM7 / MIUI ). It is universal CWM Package
It's a pity the stuff in the build prop, won't do jack. It sets flags on that which does not exist, but on Sony built ROMs IMHO. It's Sonys tweak mod for there ROMs... Like Voodoo, Neutral colors, Galaxian, Speedrom blah etc.
Perhaps a kernel dev could verify it. The missing swiqi links to nowhere..

Hi,
If you don't notice difference with Voodoo Gamma hack..
1- you have problem in your eyes and need glasses
2- you didn't touched the settings and left them as "stock"
Try the settings in the thread below and you wont talk about bravia engine anymore.

also
as has been noted in GadgetCheck's thread in the SGS2 development forums, while folks are loading the modules there is no service to utilize them, which is Sony Erickson proprietary... Even on AOSP ROMs on the SE phones, it can't be enabled... just on SE ROMs on SE ONLY hardware that it is already built for (though possibly not enabled, hence how this "hack" can work on certain SE phones!)

[MOD]Upgrading OpenGL to 2.0

Hi guys!.Managed to add OpenGL 2.0 driver support to our Heroes.Don't expect any miracles,our GPU can't support everything,that requires 2.0 graphics.The mod increases display performance,gives a high boost to Android 4.0 ROMs(turns on hardware accelerating) and maybe helps in some games.For those,who want to try it,flash attach from CWM Recovery(zip is not signed).In case if something goes wrong or you want to turn it off just delete file data/local.prop

Or something like that.On our local forum almost all testers on ICS reported,that their phones become much more fast and responsive.I tried it myself on ZeroHero,it increased scrolling speed a bit
I tried it on ICS now, and I got to say, it's a HUGE improvement! Really! Of course, it's not like VE, but for example pulling down the pulldownbar is about as smooth as it's possible. With this mod I think I can use ICS as a daily!
Thanks

[Q] Xperia S Jelly Bean With Working 1080p Video recording

Hi,
I'm new here. I searched lot of posts with ROMs and couldn't find some Jelly Bean ROM with proper 1080p video recording (without laggs like in stock) for my Sony Xperia S.
Is there some Jelly Bean ROM with all working functions? I really don't have time to search (kids,0-24job) more and I will be very grateful if someone give me some link for such ROM if it exist at all.
sorry on my English if I wrote something wrong.
Phone has unlocked bootloader, it's rooted and recoverx is installed.
Thank You.

Disable stabilisation feature and run something like niabocs Rom. Very little lag here.
Besides, I stand still generally when I'm filming.

I did that thing with disabling stabilisation in stock rom 6.2.B.0.210 and 6.2.B.0.211 what people suggested but that didn't work for me.
I'm looking for Jelly Bean without any lag in 1080p recording like in ICS where everything works but on Jelly Bean wifi, battery life,performance... are much better. I'll wait proper Jelly Bean rom for Xperia S where everything work without need to disable some feature to gain other.

Best keep the question threads in the Q&A thread, it's there for a reason.
Turning off stabilisation does reduce the lags a bit. But there's no Rom fixing the FullHD recording, we'll just have to be patient, if a solution ever comes. To be honest I always prefered to record at 720p. 1080p is just for bragging that it works, but it occupies so much space and didn't look that impressive from the start.

HDMI is ROM related. Unlocking the bootloader will remove the DRM keys so you cannot use Sony's exclusive features like TrackID.
A stock based custom ROM like UHD should still have HDMI functionality. Any other custom ROM like CyanogenMod will not have HDMI functionality.

when i search for uhd im flooded with hundreds of unrelated pages. would be mind pointing me in the proper direction?
