Overclock/undervolt/Underclock guide on xperia device


Want to give your phone a small performance boost?Or save battery?

WARNING ! The following is done fully under your own responsibility ! Overclocking is a dangerous process and doing it without knowledge will end in FULL BRICK! Be careful with what you do and proceed only if you fully understand the process!

1. You need root, unlocked bootloader and custom kernel, that allows OC /UC /UV, installed.

2. Install app to edit the CPU, for example SetCPU, SetXperia, NoFrills CPU Control or another one.

3. Open the application on your phone.

4. CPU Frequency is the clock, how fast your CPU works. The faster it works, the more power it uses, more heat is generated, info is faster calculated.

5. CPU voltage is how much power the CPU receives. It can affect, how CPU works. Manufacturers set it to high enough for CPU to work properly. You can set it lower to save battery, however you might occur problems with your phone!

6. Search on internet for more information about overclocking to know more about it.

7. Do everything carefully, as a small mistake could result in serious problems (for example, FULL BRICK due to motherboard damage). Repairing can cost more than phone itself.
***If you brick your phone's software then try here.

Ice cream sandwhich update on sony ericssonlive with walkman



ICS update is already released. You might want to know, what you need to do to get the update. Make sure, that you have a working Xperia 2011 device with stock ROM and stock kernel installed(if you install via PC Companion or SEUS) and locked bootloader(if you install via PC Companion or SEUS). 

Root access doesn't matter(according to current information),whether you have or not. It is lost after update anyway. PC Companion and/or Update Service installed on your computer. Drivers working for your phone. Official update will only be available via PC Companion and Update Service. But you can also use Flashtool to install ICS.

Relocking bootloader for xperia device

If you want to return to stock and/or need warranty back, you should need to relock bootloader. First install stock ROM and kernel and then relock bootloader, else you will have problems. Depending on the unlocking method, there are 2 ways to relock.

1)TEST POINT METHOD
Start S1 Tool and click Restore button.
Bootloader should be relocked automatically.

Will not work on test point method,
because bootloader was patched there ant not unlocked.
1. Make sure you have installed Flashtool.

3. Enter Recovery(while booting, when screen gets brighter, press Volume Down button until phone enters Recovery).
4. Make factory reset, wipe cache partition and clear Dalvik Cache(under Advanced).

because some ROMs require files from system folder and installation will not finish if files are not available. Then you have to install stock ROM again.
5. Choose install zip from sdcard, pick the downloaded .zip file on your SDcard.
6. Wait for it to finish and reboot your
phone.

Installing custom kernel on xperia device

Most custom ROMs will require a custom kernel, some of these include it already (CM, MIUI etc), other you need to find yourself(Hybrom). Installation is done via fastboot. First, you need to find a custom kernel, that will work on your phone. You can find these from Development section.
1. Make sure your bootloader is unlocked, enter service men (*#*#7378423#*#*), Service Info, Configuration, if it says Bootloader unlocked: Yes, then it is unlocked.

4. From the downloads section, download kernel installation package and extract the folder.
5. Place the .img file inside the folder. If it's name isn't boot.img yet, rename it to boot.img.

7. Double-click on the flash.cmd file. It will start fastboot automatically and install the kernel.
8. When finished, disconnect the cable and turn on your phone.

Enjoy the game **we would be sadly disapointed if you copy this to your website...**

Increasing battery life on xperia device


Android smartphones like sony,samsung,htc, are really powerful, but unfortunately, they don't have endless battery life. Infact, many Android phone users wouldbe happy to make it through a singleday, hoping that a nightly recharge issufficient.Sadly, it sometimes isn't. A number of factors have conspired to reduce gadget endurance over the past several years. Thinner designs with less room for batteries, larger and brighter screens, faster dual-coreprocessors, more software that runs in the background, and power-hungry GPS radios all share responsibility. Themove from 3G to 4G networks—particularly of the LTE variety—has
also taken its toll. But there's much more to poor battery life results than that. Fortunately, there's plenty you can do to stem the flow of juice from your Android device. Try these tips to extend your handset's battery life: See what's sucking the most juice. Navigate to Settings > About Phone > Battery Use to see an organized breakdown of what's consuming your phone's battery. Applications and features will display in a descending list of battery hogs. If you see an application you barely use or a feature you never use, uninstall the app or turn off the feature. Turn unnecessary hardware features off. It's great that today's phones haveLTE, GPS, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth, but do you really need all four activated 24 hours per day? Android keeps location-based apps resident in the background, and the constant drain on your battery will become noticeable, fast. Some 4G and 4G LTE smartphones let you turn off 4G mode separately, which is a good thing, since LTE consumes extra power but has yet to blanket the country. If your phone hasa power control widget, you can use it to quickly turn on/off GPS, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth, and sometimes 4G as well (depending on the phone). Set display brightness to adjust automatically. Turning down the brightness is obvious—you'll be surprised at how much this one helps alone. But the automatic adjustment setting is less well known. Activating it means the OS will automatically dim its display in darker environments, including seemingly well-lit indoor rooms.

Dump unnecessary home screen widgets and live wallpaper. Just because they're sitting on the home screen, seemingly inactive, doesn't mean they're not consuming power. That goes for widgets that poll status updates in the background, as well as ones that just sit there but look pretty and animated—not to mention animated live wallpaper. (But don't dump everything, as part of what makes Android great are the home screen customizations; just remove theones that you don't use.)
