Xperia: Fidelity GX 4.0 – Improved battery life, performance, stability and audio performance

After releasing 3.0 with tons of new extreme tweaks, I experienced some serious system issues few days after. Not that I haven’t tested it before but maybe I was lucky to not get into anything serious for 2-3 days before releasing it and I didn’t use that much on those days. Now optimizations are finely tuned again and things should work right and better. Soon I’ll release seperate packs for other devices after Windows 8 projects updated.

This ROM is designed to work with Xperia P device but it should also work on other Xperia NXT devices too as most apks I added are working on Xperia S/Acro S/GX/T too installation is designed to work on any existing ROM. You can also try flashing on other ICS devices like Samsung/HTC/LG/etc. and let me know if it works on your phone. Don’t forget to make nandroid backup before flashing.

Featuring:
-Xperia Fidelity script
-Xperia GX/T apps and System UI
-Xperia GX/T sounds and graphics
-build.prop tweaks
-Thunderbolt v2.7.7 tweaks
-Partition remounting optimized
-Supercharger’s patched services.jar

-Powersave governor during screen-off
-Clear cache every 1hr for lag-free
-Zipaligned
-Audio effects bypassed
-Google Now

If you experience random reboots after flashing main ROM, please flash this generalization patch to fix this ROM to improve compatibilities.

If you aren’t using Sony Xperia phones, don’t feel down yet. Soon I’ll release separated CWM packages for tweaks and optimizations so you can test it on yours.
