Add (activate) the Sony Bravia Engine in Xperia Miro / Tipo / J !!!

I'll leave here the procedure to activate the sony bravia engine on Xperia Miro.

I managed to do it correctly and worked with me. I can not vouch for any damage that may cause to your equipment. Do at your own risk!!



requirements:
- root
- Root explorer or equivalent
- Terminal Emulator


Extract the zip file with the name "Bravia"
Put the two files (be_movie & be_photo) on the memory card of the phone
Using root explorer (or equivalent), place the two files inside the folder: /system/etc


Now we have to change the file build.prop of the ROM
To do this go to /system and open the file build.prop (finger pressed on the choice and chose the option "Open with editor", go to the end of the file and add the following lines:

# Sony Bravia Engine Service
ro.service.swiqi.supported=true
persist.service.swiqi.enable=1


And we recorded the file build.prop


Now we go to the terminal emulator and write:

su (to give the root permissions)

And wrote the following lines:

busybox chmod 0755 /system/etc/be_photo
busybox chmod 0755 /system/etc/be_movie
busybox chown 0.0 /system/etc/be_photo
busybox chown 0.0 /system/etc/be_movie


Restart the Xperia Miro and Voila!!

Sony Bravia Engine active!!

If I helped, click the button thank me!

[App][Share] Gl tools. Increase Gaming performance

Hello everyone

I found this app named GLtools it can increase gaming perfomance by decreasing quality I play gta 3 on.my xperia tipo lag is almost nill by using 0.5x resolution
It works same as chain fire 3d

Its an awesome app everyone should try it
I tried on xperia tipo on cm10

Heres the playstore link
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...term%3Dgltools
Feature list
- Change resolution and rendering bitness in any app, even if it doesn't support that by default.
- Change GPU name and enjoy enhanced graphics even on a noname low-end GPU.
- Take full control over textures: now you can decompress/recompress them (even if your GPU doesn't support that
texture format) and resize. Note that decompression feature is available only if you'll install a plugin (internet is
required to do that)
- Optimize shaders on-the-fly for optimal performance (the same optimizer is used in Unity3D engine by default)
- Enable MSAA or CSAA in any app to improve graphics quality (make sure that your GPU supports that)
- Measure gained performance with a nice onscreen FPS counter (or you can output FPS information to Logcat if you
are a pro)

[App] Blink and Illumination Bar Notification

Hi,i found on Gplay two great applications.

1.Blink - Flash LED in Your Way

2.Illumination Bar Notification

The first application, we can change the notification Colors on LED near the front camera.

With a second, we can set the notification on LED at the bottom of the phone ( In general settings, i set Xperia U on select device).

I will not describe, how to set these applications, because they are very intuitive.

This 100% working on Xperia J
But I think it should also work on:
Xperia Tipo, Miro

Screenshots:

Illumination Bar Notification
