Nice looking icons, they got a name?

That's Chronus. It's part of Cyanogenmod. However, other ROMs have adopted it as well. It's also known as cLock now as well if I remember correctly.

Indeed. It's just called cLock now. :)

Xperia Launcher is indeed one of the best launchers out there :D

<snip>

It's okay, I've the Xperia S and it's smooth, but I still prefer having the functionality of other launchers like Apex.

Also what's with your notification bar? Looks so cluttered :(

Battery indicator, Auto Screen On indicator, Folder Player, plus wifi... I was using some other programs that moment.

But why two battery indicators? Why not hide one of them? Also the Network on the left side?

I hate having my bar full up, one thing I don't like about stock Sony is that even NFC has an icon! :(

That's because sadly there are no mods for that at the moment, I'm using the stock EU Rom of my UK RAZRi (x86 processor), so no cyanogen or any other good roms... barely some people have begun to play with the kernel... but I hope it will be soon enough.

The icon in that drop down is the ICS Android icon, pretty certain the JB one is just the Jelly Bean

i can't influence the dropdown icons... if you mean that "3" icon that's afaik not a specific android icon, rather a customized one, as i can chose from 60+ icons or so, could even add one done by myself.

No that's what I'm, saying though is that the Android icon for your USB Debugging is taken from ICS and not Jelly Bean. So whoever packaged the ROM for some reason went with that rather than the correct one.

oh i see. i didn't even notice that because i couldn't care less. the icons i care about are spot on, and all in all this rom is awesome with all tweaks included. i won't picking arround because of one unimportant icon.

Xperia S running OpenSEMC BETA the kernal on this thing is pretty much amazing now when the phone is asleep.

Looking to find somewhere to place upcoming appointment on homescreen too. Have an agenda widget on the left homescreen but think I would like one showing on main too.

    • It depends on how technical of an answer you want. Does it stop manufacture drivers? Yes, the universal driver is the only thing that interfaces with the printer hardware. However, print support apps (PSAs) are the new way to provide that functionality you speak of, and they integrate directly into the print dialog box, so the user doesn't see any difference at all. This is nothing new...this has been the preferred way to do print drivers for almost 8 years! The only thing changing here is that the older printer model drivers of the past are being deprecated. I highly suspect that you yourself have installed a print support app described as a driver package from the manufacture's support page, had it work exactly as expected, without realizing it was using the universal IPP driver under the covers. For example, USB keyboards have all used the generic HID driver for just about as long as they have existed, but that doesn't stop manufacture "drivers" from enabling more features.

    • Wow..... 1.8GB of RAM usage. That's just a bit more than MS Teams or VS Code uses.
    • its slower than ever. especially on mobile ios. really poor app. Slack is a million times better. shame the company i work for moved from Slack to teams few years back. was like moving from 2026 to windows ME.
    • Manufacturers will be able to ship printer-specific functions through their support apps (their companion software, in other words). But no, drivers won't be needed from them anymore, only the universal one included with Windows. Think about this as printers all agreeing to a stardandized API for common functions, all talking the same language and supporting the most common functionality via that API, so only a single driver is needed to talk to them. Any additional functionality not handled by that driver will be provided by the companion software for the printer.
