I need your help guys..

I installed FXP 138 but the rom was damage, and now I'm stuck at recovery and can't connect the phone to the computer with the "mount usb storage", so how can I transfer another rom to the sd card?

Thank you!!!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] scook94:
Just restore the backup you took and then try again. Simple.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] NadavIs:
I have not any backup :/
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dreamz0r:
Use flashtool and re flash stock and you're back in business

Also ALWAYS make a backup!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] NadavIs:
Thank you.

There's not another solution?

Why the "mount usb storage" don't work?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] YousifNael:
Install a cwm v5 kernel , cwm 6 has problems with mount usb storage;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] piponxs:
Anyone....? I am tired of searching for (wrong) installation tutorials for this rom... I rooted my device, installed xrec and then v6 kernel, after that cm9.zip... All I get is black screen on my phone .. (afer that seus,rooting,xrecovery again...) I cant enter fastboot mode , so how will I install this rom through xrec.. Thanks

P.s I am not a noob, I was instaling roms on x1,x10 .. And I am here since 2009 so please...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] NadavIs:
Where can I find CWM v5 for the xperia s?

*Please it sooo important!!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Soheil_rf:
I enable soft-key button in Cm9.1 (138 ) , after that randomly Navigation bar and Status bar disappear by itself

here screen shot of alogcat app when this happens
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] YousifNael:
XperiaSSpeed kernel has it

if ur stuck on cwm 6 and cant access mount usb storage

then u HAVE to restore via flashtool , or restore a backup , or install a difrrent rom

---------- Post added at 11:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:56 PM ----------

Umm , if status bar and nav bar dont appear , that means that systemUI.apk found in system/app isnt wokring

I say dont use teh nav bar , cuz it sucks on xperia S , the screen is already small

But if u really need it

Make sure u followed all instructions of the place u got it from correctly

@FXP : Can you please make the Cm roms work on dual kernel everytime you release a new version ??
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Apology11:
They can´t do that, because then it wouldn´t work on normal anymore.

Do you need FXP139 for loop partition or do you run it as "Stock" ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] airwolf1544:
Any way to do that manually?

Yes letama explained it on his thread. It´s the third post.

No it´s just the method letama posted.

it doesn't work now? or only for me ?

Did anyone notice any issues in GPU?cause I tried playing few games that I have installed, it had some rendering issues!I used 138

I have weird problem on install this rom.

when i flash stock rom from flashtool, i can install this rom follow"1. wipe data/cache 2. wipe cache 3. install rom 4. install google"

however ,when using cm9, i can't install this rom again. There are many error when wipe data/cache and format/mount system.

At this time, i must flash stock rom from flashtool again, and install cm9.

why?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] keunhuvac:
It is impossible to download rom, any mirror?

Thanks!

Install JDownloader after that open web browser and go to your CM ROM zip file download page and copy address bar link. Then past it jdownloader link graber and fill re-chapter. Now your download start normally. But no resume.

HOpe that the ROM is OK ! :eek: Because all other ROMS Kinda dissapointed me..and all the developers are leaving ! :\
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] beup:
Yes, my lighting bar is not working too.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] YousifNael:
Download this app from play store , run it and it will fix ur brightness issue ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] beup:
As the name of this app is called, it disable autobrightness right ? Maybe i dont know how to use it but i tried it, and i dont know how it is suppose to fix the automatic brightness ...

It only disable it so the light is always at the same density right ?

Isn't automatic brightness suppose to change the density according environment light ? (at night the density should be very low so it dont hurt our eyes ?)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] YousifNael:
well the auto brightness feature doesnt work on the current bulids , and the brightness is always lower than normal even on the highest brightness setting

the app makes the brightness like how it used to be in the stock firmware

u can try it , and disable the app if u didnt like it ..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] beup:
Ok its more clear, from my understanding, in your response, this app was supposed to fix the automatic brightness.

But yeah i noticed the difference with this app, its sad the automatic brightness dont work, i like to have a nice brightness during the day, so i can enjoy the quality of our XS screen, but at night i have to change the setting so it dont hurt my eyes.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] igna.worn:
My notification lightbar is also not working.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] TyrionWarMage:
That requires some Sony-Ericsson libs that are obviously not included in Cyanogen. But someone made a package here on XDA (probably Xperia S apps forum) which will reenable that stuff. Just search.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] K900:
Wrong.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] igna.worn:
In FXP 138 it worked flawlessly...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] beup:
Yes i think it only occurs in this specific release, since im in FXP ROM since FXP133
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] imrock:
im having the always awake issue, it goes away for some time after a reboot but randomly comes back..all i could find on search was reflash rom, didn't help:crying::crying:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dm_alka:
This happens to me as well all the time. I have a habit of checking CPU spy a couple of times a day so I can notice when this happens. What I do is wipe dalvik cache and the problem dissappears for some time, a day or maybe more before it appears again. It can be a hassle but at least it's better than reflashing every time.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] babylonbwoy:
Just to confirm to FXP that issue 829 is fixed in 139 ROM. Now flashing, restarting or rebooting from ROM Manager works as ig should. Thanks FXP.

Next big bug for me (and few other) is network/sim detection when booting. Unfortunately Catlog can't start recording at boot so I don't know how to submit log to bugtracker. Anyone know how to use DDMS? Catlog dev told me that it can write a boot log...

Is there any way to not flash gapps after each update?

Do you flash recovery (doom / FXP recovery) again before flashing cm9 ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] establown:
no,

using cm9 recovery.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] aniket_:
Use Recovery

Then first flash recovery-nozomi (from here) using flashtool and then, using recovery flash the rom/gapps.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] establown:
ok

i will try it on coming 140.

thanks very much.

I think there is an issue with the wifi connection being reset when data is transfered with high speed over wifi. It happened every few seconds while I was trying to transfer a large file (~1GB) from my pc to my phone using airdroid. At first I thought it might be the program or my router, but then I tried using the ftp server of solid explorer and another router and the same thing happens, every few seconds the wifi icon disappears as if I had disabled wifi, then it re-connects.

I am using FXP 139, but I think this happened with 138 as well (don't know about previous versions).

Has anyone else noticed this?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] brenty108:
Hmmm....are you using your phone to download??
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] igna.worn:

Anyway, I can live without it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DeJe63:
Thanks. Well, I can live with that.

But I do have another really anoying issue. Sometimes the GPS is trying to get a fix or something but I did not started any App which requires location. If this happens, the GPS icon is blinking nearly forever in the status bar, even I am inside for hours.

Is there any work arround or is this a known bug?

After flashing CM9.0 on my Xperia S, I found that my LT26i just stuck on the FreeXperia Project logo after reboot, I've already tried manually flash kernel(boot.img), but that problem still exist, I still unable to boot into CyanogenMod by now...help...

I already wiped data in every step n already flashed 6 times, but nth solved...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mharckk:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tomfan203:
I've alredy flashed gapps everytime

Although yesterday night I've already flashed back to Sony official ICS ROM, but Sony's ICS ROM is extremely laggy...their GB ROM is much better, but seems that GB doesn't support my screen resolution...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] utsav911:
is it stuck at splash screen or bootanimation?

First flash kernel supplied in the zip.

and then try flashing the zip after you have wiped data/factory reset.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tomfan203:
I've stuck on the FreeXperia Project splash screen when booting up, it's not animation, it's just a logo with a big green X at the middle.

Any idea ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mharckk:
try this:

1. restore your rom

2. reboot to recovery, wipe data (factory reset)

3. install rom

4. flash gapps

5.flash kernel included in the package

6.wipe cache and dalvik then reboot
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tomfan203:
Need to exit recovery after flashed gapps then connect my phone in fastboot mode n flash kernel in cmd, then reboot back to recovery n wipe cache n dalvik cache, right?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mharckk:
yup

or if not working

dont wipe cache and dalvik.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tigerton:
May be you should mount system and then flash rom again.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mharckk:
did you format your system? you need to mount it again then install the rom, if you havent formatted your system, try to download other version, then see if it works,

one thing is your bootloader unlocked?

Led bar fix (139 & 140)

Seems automatic brightness is not compatible with our phone or something

to fix LED bar you have to edit framework :

1. decompile framework-res.apk , go to /res/values/bools.xml

2.search this : "config_automatic_brightness_available">true</bool>

3.change to ''false''

4.compile & push to phone

If you want i can upload the apk for you
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] beup:
It would be nice if you could upload it.

To install it i could just replace it by using root explorer or do i have to flash all the rom again by replacing the framework by yours ?

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] beup:
Thanks it worked, i dont know if it is the appropriate topic to talk about that, but if it's not i would not talk about that again.

I dont know if it always worked that way, but on the setting, the luminosity affect the screen birghtness and the LED brightness.

On CM9, screen brightness is not high, even by setting the brightness to max, i installed Disable Autobrightness for Xperia and the brightness is really good, even by setting it to low the screen is pretty bright and nice.

So my problem is the following :

Without Disable Autobrightness, i can't get a nice brightness the luminosity won't get bright enought, but by doing this the LED is really bright and looks nice.

With Disable Autobrightness the screen is really nice, but i can't set it to more than half or it will become really too bright, but with the luminosity set to less than the half, the the LED is not bright enough then ...

I dont know if im clear but i would like to know if i could set the brightness of the screen and of the LED bar separatly or it is not possible.
