SOLVED
CoolDesign started one of these for the Mini, although I love my phone I thought it was a good idea so decided to start one for the Mini Pro (2011 version). Check out the other thread too (http://talk.sonyericsson.com/message/107847#107847) as I'm sure alot of features will be shared, I've copied some into this thread.
Please post enhancements only, not bugs or issues with your phone... unless of course it is something that needs enhancing! I'll try to copy them into this post to keep them all at the start.
- Screen flickering - ambient light sensor on/off option, or not updating so often.
- Photos seem over-compressed - don't compress so much or give options.
- Video seems over-compressed - don't compress so much or give options.
- Fade-in alarm and fade in ringtones options. **
- Lock-screen "widget" for the music player. (Surprised this wasn't there). **
- Three settings on the "brightness" widget (dim, mid, bright). **
- Rotate home screen and app drawer. It does this when the keyboard is out so it can be done, if not by the sensor can we have a widget that rotates the screen. (Anyone know of one?)
- Allow for a preview on the lock screen of messages recieved (SMS, etc), theres plenty of space under the clock. **
- Use a long press on the included headphones button to activate Voice Search so you can ring someone or navigate somewhere without touching/unlocking the phone.
- Include the other two switches (Backlight and Data Traffic) in the Status Switch. (Because of its size it currently doesn't go in the middle so looks weird) Or reduce it to four and allow it to be configured with which ones we want. **
- Camera sounds. I know some places have to have sounds by law, but can we have a separate volume for it as I'm not sure which one controls it but its overly loud!! (shutter and focus) If I switch xLoud off it helps but I want this on...
- Allow the volume keys to be used for next/previous track/station or volume (setting, either or) when playing music/radio and the phone is locked.
Added (25/10/2011):
- Have a setting to control the timeout of the keyboard backlight.
- Have a setting to control the keyboard backlight brightness as it is difficult to see in low light (especially on the white Mini Pro).
** Just to add uliwooly-wooly posted some useful apps which provide this functionality (the starred items). See here and here or scroll down.
Oh ya... Sony can you put battery percentage on the battery icon?
Perhaps you can make a new icon like a rounded one with the battery percentage in the middle?
Cause I've run custom roms before in x10 mini pro and I am aware that inserting a battery percentage inside the stock battery icon will be very hard due to small screen size...
This would be a good feature as xperia mini and mini pro's battery is not very good...
So battery percentage will definitely help us to monitor our usage more accurately..
Thanks.
when compared to other xperias (Neo V, Arc etc) difference between normal output and output with XLOUD is not much in mini pro.. I don't use loudspeaker much, so it doesn't really matter to me.. But if the volume can be further enhanced, why not
