ouch... my first bootloop on the Ray!

who can help me?

i was on JJ´s 3,2 (unlocked bootloader) and flykernel.

wiped everything, flashed this rom via x-parts, clockwork ´install zip´ but forgot to place gapps on the sd-card (was that what was wrong?) and after succusfull update reboot...

into loop!

started pc companion, not possible because not supported version.

Seus same...

so now what can I do?

---------- Post added at 08:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:31 PM ----------

OK, i had just made my my first nandroid backup ans was able via volume down during bootloop to re/enter CWM !

restore my backup is now starting... fingers crossed!

but why did i enter bootloop? because i´d like to give this rom a try!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] pluGinSz:
Do factory reset , wipe delvik cache. Flash boot.img via fastboot and then flash the ROM. It will take a hard boot at first. Flash Gapps.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] goodnightPal:
wish i had an unlocked bootloader:/
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dreezz:
still have troubles...

did factory reset, wiped cache, flashed boot.img but when i tried to install the rom via choose zip file i got an error (nr 7 i thought it was...).

so, via CWM back on my nandroid backup (jj´s + flykernel) but... when it boots it still has the pacman bootlogo and freezes.

what can i do?

@ goodnightPal: unlocking the bootloader was the easy part ;)

edit: do i flash the new rom via fastboot as well? i was doing it via CWM...

Make sure you've got an ics kernel when you're restoring your nandroid backup, flash that then restore
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] szl.kiev:
Maybe bro

because you haven't flashed the kernel yet

just unlock then, you can RE-LOCK after all. Make sure use testpoint method

Via cwm, mount system, format system, dont forget to wipe data/factory reset, then flash zip

I flashed the zips from the Arc thread as Szl mentioned. It seems it fixes YouTube's green line and random reboots as well as the video recording and camera preview using Camera illusion (camera preview works on Szl's ics camera app already). And if u still want the JB camera just copy from the system/app of szl's ROM and install it. (JB camera preview still not fixed). Zips can be downloaded from FXP's CM10 arc section thread #1280 by Bestt !

Thanks to Szl.Kiev to point it out !

I don't know if I'm allowed to attach some one else's zips so please get em from the original thread.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] demez:
This ROM is great but I found a big with lbe guard. Once I allow active protection the system reboots and won't let me do anything else once lbe loads after the reboots. Something like reboot loop once it loads. Other than that is OK. Oh another thing, would be nice to include Sony t9 xs keyboard since is one of the best suited for this mobile by far and I missed it too much. I will try the next release once is out to check for more bugs. Keep the good work man.

Its cm10 code fix by FXP that was already included in this build, all you have to do is just install any other camera app instead of stock camera that is builtin inside gallery2.apk

But don't switch to front camera cause it will give you FC, if that happened, clear camera data in Settings>>Application.

Front camera hasn't been fixed in all 2011 Xperia

actually video recording already fixed since FXP137, just do small edit in audio_policy.conf by adding sampling rate 48kHz, that's all...video recording work fine without need to set audio sampling rate to 44.1kHz like in CameraIllusion

I don't think this ROM is in alpha stage anymore, if you overlook the front camera's problem. And as i understood, this problem has been fixed too?

EDIT: new jb drivers are out! my nenamark2 score jumped from 28 to 30 with alpha10, not that much of an increase but it's better than nothing. just flash it then wipe dalvik cache and reboot.

The auto brightness dim level will depends on how is your current max brightness.

set the manual brightness to max (or your desirable brightnes level)>> hit OK >> set to Automatic brightness >> hit OK.

to check the result put it in sleep mode & then wake up

For paranoid settings issue, replace ParanoidPreferences.apk in system/app with the one in the attachment.

change attachment, now in update.zip format

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] justmpm:
One camera comes with gallery and it mostly works, preview doesn't . The other one works...including preview. Don't try and

use the front facing camera with any camera app, it will FC. Then you have to go to manage apps and clear data for the camera.

You can uninstall gallery and the extra camera will disappear and you can use whatever "gallery" app you like from the play store.

Gallery ICS is pretty much the same as the default one.....

anyone try it?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] justmpm:
It would be a shame to leave this ROM...it is really quite amazing! It will help if you are already familiar with one of the CM builds or AOKP...if you are coming from stock, you will have more trouble finding everything, so maybe it is best to flash CM10 or the JB AOKP build and play around with that one for a few days.

The rebooting during video playback can be stopped by going into system settings->developer options and then checking the box to disable HW overlays.

The paranoid settings may seem a little bit complicated but they are way better than before and it is really pretty simple....there are two parameters that work together: layout and size.

Here's how I set mine up:

1. Pick the Workspace you like best (system->paranoidandroid settings->workspace). You probably want to start with stock UI and then try the others...once you are more comfortable with the ROM. At least with the stock UI everything will more or less fit nicely. If you change to phablet or tablet mode, somethings will be the wrong size for the screen and you may have to play around with the User Interface settings (see below).

2. After the reboot play with the User Interface to make things look right (system->paranoidandroid settings->User Interface). If something doesn't fit on the screen go smaller with the bar. For example to see the bottom of the lockscreen you will probably have to change the size. Remember the biggest is 240 dpi, so changing to 230 dpi probably doesn't make any sense because this is less than a 5% difference. Use a little judgement for these settings. If it looks like 10% of something is cut off you may be able to get away with setting the size to 220 or 200, if more is cut off go smaller. Almost everything fits at 160 or 180. I think the defaults for stock are pretty good. I hate these settings because you have to reboot everytime you want to change something.

3. Now you can set up the apps (system->paranoidandroid settings->Apps). These are nice because you don't have to reboot. Select the app you want to customize....set the size to 160 then slide to the layout page. Try the different layouts (use the preview tab at the top and the back button to return). Once you choose a layout, slide back to the size page and adjust the size. For things with a side by side view (like the system settings) usually the 600px or 720px layout with a size of 160 will look OK....but it is really up to you. Hit the apply tab and you are done....

If you really want an ICS ROM JJs Hybrid is the best non-stock ROM....and for a stock based ROM I would try the Fly Light.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] MegaWath:
Ok.. I've tried this rom for 2 days and this is what I've seen:

1. LED toggles (CM&AOKP) are disabled

2. When I listen to music with Apollo, in the lockscreen there isn't the background.. is all black (not an Apollo issue.. also walkaman show a black lockscreen..)

3. Two cameras.. the one working, have still some issue (I had FC one time during focus)

4. I haven't tested Radio yet

5. Could you implement the sms.apk modded in cm nightlies?

6. Rebooting into recovery takes (sometimes) a bit too long (don't know why)

Still a perfect Alpha ROM!! Keep compiling xD

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] justmpm:
That's a really cool trick! At first it wasn't working because parts of the android-logo-mask.png needs to be transparent in order to see the shine. I screwed around with the mask in photoshop a little bit, but it would take some work to make it look right during the animation....too many shades of yellow, green, pink, and blue... it is a bit simplistic, but you can make the pacman logo into the shine and use a completely transparent mask and get a decent albeit very simple effect....
