Hi all. It's possible to install small apps in CyanogenMod 9 (FXP 150) on Xperia S?
Because CM9 is very fast, and with new Pimp my Rom I also can install Bravia Engine and xLoud. But i love small apps, and I would them.
Knows anybody something?
Thank you,
Stefano.
I learnt that it is impossible
The BRAVIA and xLoud for non Stock ROMs aren't the way they are supposedcto work (not work perfectly).
Also, the small apps heavily relies on Sony Framework, something CM9 doesn't have.
Hello
Today i installed CM10 ROM on my xperia S, + NOVA kernel. I installed gapps and everything is working fine i have only 2 problems, one of them is that when im in camera app and i want to use photo sphere, my camera app crashes(i have question here, i see camera app named cyber-shot in some videos; why is that??)
second problem is the keyboard i just cant find the option to turn the swype on, i searched the internet and flashed JB 4.2 keyboard but it isnt shown anywhere.
and just few noob questions:
is there anyway to get the stock walkman widget working?? beacuse i dont really like this apollo music player (i got the application WALKMAN tho, but i would really like to get the widget)
is possible to get small apps working on CM10?? (probably not i guess)
is possible to get the some stock wigets i had on stock SONY UI.
the thing is that i really like sony UI, but google's stock UI just feels so much smoother and snappier witch i preffer over the choppy sony UI.
Hey Guy
My xperia Ion was very smooth with ICS few days ago, but when i upgrade it to JB (i have been waiting it for a long time), it's getting lagger and lagger like below:
- APP DRAW : very lag, not smooth like ISC FW, what is the thing in JB called "Project butter"? I heard that it make android smooth as much as IOS. But i dont see this on JB Xperia ION, this is so disappointing.
- FACEBOOK, CHROME ... APP: disappointing again. They're so lag that i have to uninstall them immediately.
- WALKMAN: What happen with my favorite music player, the quanlity of music is getting so bad.
- CAMERA: capture movie add the highest resolution (Full HD) is getting lag, it dont happen in ICS FM
Please give me some solution to bring back the smooth i have had on ISC FW to the new JB FW on my ION
Thank a lot guy

The Project Button was a project to try to bring smoothness to the whole UI. It doesn't promise a lag-free experience. Did you made a clean or dirty install? Facebook app has been getting faster and faster with each update. Chrome is really slow because it was built based on PC's version, not a Android app. Also, you have a 2010 processor in your phone. It isn't one of the best. Walkman in JB is 10x better, sound quality wise, for me... Camera problem is because Sony implemented some new drivers that aren't really compatible with our processor, so it lags a bit...
Android JB in Xperia Ion is Awesome
I flashed Android JB in My Xperia Ion few days ago. It's really cool update. I installed PowerAmp for Music and it's the Best. Walkman is also good. But can't compare with PowerAmp. I haven't face any issue with Camera. Apps are working very fine (No crashing so far.) I tested Asphalt 7 Heat and It's Great. (No Lagging/No Crash).
Pros:
+ Better User Experience :highfive:
+ No compatibility issues (Perhaps I installed all apps which I had in ICS.)
+ SenseMe Slideshow in Albums app (I like it very much. :victory: )
+ Improved Notifications Bar
+ Customizable Wall/Screens (Can add/delete any no of walls which is not possible in ICS)
+ Familiar widgets
Cons:
- Booting time is more when compare with ICS. (It's not a Big Deal. I don't restart my phone every day. Who does?! :angel: )
- Can't Root the OS. (ICS was Rootable easily. Waiting for Firmwares from XdaDevelopers. )
- Can't uninstall/remove apps from Menu itself. (ICS has Blocks icon on top right which enables to delete user installed apps.) It's not a Big deal, I can uninstall via Settings -> Apps.
- Not able to find Direct call Contacts Widget.
I suggest to Flash Android JB on your Ion. :highfive:
Well, it can be done [root]

Jellybean is easily rootable via doomlords rootkit.
Tho i dont find the jellybean update all that great. Back on ICS for me...its better. Sony just cant get video recording right can they?!
Hello guys,
I have an old Xperia M kept in my drawer for a long time (running CM 13), but I would like to make it a little bit more useful, I thought in some things:
Make it as a security cam (low quality / I live in an apartment, so not so risky)
Make it as a "smart hub" for my TV (interesting, does it support MHL? it worth?)
Any more suggestions? Any clean/smooth/fast rom for the ideas?
Thanks!
