[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] mpiekp:
Hi.

Did you not read the cm10 thread?

Camera's do not work, it's still early in the development.....

All working except HDMI on cm 7&9 series
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] alada1994:
Fixed

My camera with cm10.0 on the Xperia Play is now working video recording and normal camera front and back.

I fixed the issue by using the app root explorer and going to the folder "app" in the "system" directory. Delete the legacycamera.apk and gallery2.apk first in root explorer you will need to press the mount R/W button then delete the two apps then install camera.apk i have attached and then in the play store download gallery ics because the original gallery adds a second camera app which doesnt work. This is what worked for me and no I don't know anything about developing

Just realised this is for the Neo So I dont know if it will work but I came accross this fix using the camera app from fxp137 and put it in the new update and everything worked
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] TigerV:
Hay Bro....

As per my knowledge

The camera problem is a bug which cannot be solved without official JB camera libraries from Sony which is impossible as xperia 2011 series isn't getting JB official update from Sony! So we have to deal with it ! Till Sony doesn't release the libraries! :D

I remember to have had this pb with Chrome, so I uninstalled it.

Now, I'm on Jelly Sandwich 4.5, and seeying this thread, I just installed Chrome again, to test, and... it's ok now :)

I don't know what was solved (Rom version, or chrome itself), so, I can advise you to install the last Jelly Sandwhich (I don't know which version you installed), and to uninstall/install properly Chrome ;)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolnand:
Is there any method to dual boot android and wp7?? The animations are so cool and stuff in wp7. Is there any method known? I know in HTC hd2 it's possible. Other than that, in gs3 ??
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tectas:
No and it won't I guess.

At hd2 it has been possible, because it is a wp and the devs could port android, because it is open source.

The other way round is much harder.

And sry but for my opinion wp7 is crap compared to android, even when you compare it to good old gb and I guess most people here share my opinion (no offence in any way, I only want to point out that I don't think any developer is working or will work on it).
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolnand:
I never said wp7 is better. I'm quite intrigued by wp8. I just thought if there are ports for wp7 then, we can expect wp8also right? That's all. I know that android is the best now..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tectas:
I prefer android, best is something depending on opinions and use.

Even when there would be a wp7 port, wp8 is completely different and would need the whole thing ported from scratch.

And like already said, because wp is closed source it will be really hard to get it to work, I would recommend to not expect a working port for the gs3.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
There are a lot of current users of the Xperia S/Acro S/ Sola and a lot of new users coming through here aswell. There are also a lot of questions being asked time and time again, aswell as a lot of new users being flamed and/or trolled for asking a simple question. This is filling up our Q&A and Development forums with junk which doesn't need to be there.

Instead, just point them to this thread to get all the help they require, which in turn, lessens the clutter of the forums aswell.

In post #3 you'll find the links to different ROMs and kernels for the Xperia S. Links provided by Felimenta97.

ASK ANY RELATED QUESTION HERE,bootloader, drivers, how to root etc...... You will either get an answer here or will be given the best thread for you to go to so you can get your answer.

Even if you find your answer from one of the links provided, please come back here and look through the other threads, as you may learn something else you didn't know.

Boot loop Xperia SSpeedkernel

hello..im ed from malaysia.

i would like to ask..i just flash Xperia SSpeedkernel v6 from recovery mod and i followed all the instruction..but it seem that im trapped in the Xperia SSpeedkernel logo loop..Im on stock rom 6.1.A.2.45..how am i going to get this to work?:confused:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] KidCarter93:
Hi,

The xperia sspeed kernel v6 isn't guaranteed to work on stock ROMs, even though it does work with some.

If you're able to boot into recovery, flash the Advanced Stock ICS Kernel linked in this thread and it should work fine for you.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mred88:
thnx for the help..i guess i'll just be using the advanced stock ics kernel then..

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
To use Sony programs again (not including MEDIA GO) you would have to relock your bootloader. But you can download the firmware you want and use Flashtool to flash it on your phone.

I will add later a link to a thread with the stock firmware.

Hi all

I just flashed Advanced Stock Kernel on my Xperia S today, after I had a problem 'cause I flashed DooMKernel over ICS. I was wondering if the advanced stock kernel was pre rooted, 'cause it came with super user installed, but isn't giving root access or super user permission to any apps (including busybox) infact, after I installed busybox, random pop ups kept saying that root access was being denied to various apps. (I had Titanium Backup*Root and busybox installed) I'm really new to all of this, and would appreciate any help at all :)

Oh and also, Juice Defender detected a root and Apex launcher now allows me to add widgets from the app drawer, which required root access, if I'm not wrong. I'm wondering if I went wrong somewhere..

Thanks again :)

Oh god, it's all on and off, I don't know what's happening.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
Try opening the superuser app to see what it says. Also, I recommend.SuperSU.

It says allowed in the app, but the logs keep saying denied. It's not giving root access to any apps. I don't know what's happening. Did I not flash it properly?

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] KidCarter93:
I'd suggest installing Root Checker to make sure whether you are intact rooted or not.

If it says you're not rooted, then simply root your device and everything will be fine.

If it says you are rooted, there may possibly be something wrong with permissions.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] AnrgKrshn:
Yeah, I tried Root Checker and it says that it's not intact. Also, the Apex launcher thing isn't working anymore (Adding widgets from the drawer, which needs root access)

But in Super User it says root permission granted to RootChecker and busybox, but like I said, the logs keep saying denied. So I'm not sure

I'd be really grateful if you can point me in the direction of a way to root my phone. I thought advanced stock kernel is rooted. Should I Flash KA S Speed kernel and flash Stock kernel again? I'm sorry if I sound stupid, this is my first Android...

Xperia Sola ICS drivers for flashtool/ADB

Hello, guys! I have a sort of a problem here. Since I've updated my Sola to ICS, flashtool doesn't recognize her anymore, so I can't root or flash her. I really need root, I've tried several tools, several drivers but no result. Those driverpacks included in flashtool contain only GB Xperia Sola driver, no ICS.

One more thing - I've had Sony Update Service and PC Companion installed and uninstalled on my PC, probably their drivers caused problems. There's a Sony USB driver installed and there's no way to remove it through control panel, a dialog window says it's impossible to remove the driver as some app is currently using it. It says so even in safe mode (with no apps running at all).

What can you advise?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] KidCarter93:
Guys/gals,

Please pay attention to the title of this thread. Specifically the part that says "[HELP THREAD][XPERIA S]".

This means that if you have a question about Xperia S, you can ask it in here and receive help with your problem.

If you are asking about another one of the Xperia devices, I cannot help you and will not help you.

This isn't just because I don't have the phone. It's because the title clearly says this thread is for the Xperia S.

So, to clarify, if you have any questions about devices other than the Xperia S first of all do a search. If you can't find what you're looking for via a search then post your question in the Q&A.

Thanks.

I started to have a huge problem today. I updated to. 50 fw Sunday. Everything is really smooth, except that today, when I tried to record a video, the camera UI would freeze, the phone would say that the camera isn't available, and got stuck there. Some times It says the phone got a memory error and not even a photo could be taken. Pictures work 70% of times.

I don't know if this is due I'm on dual boot kernel, or the new update, or anything else. Anymore else already got this error? How you fixed? Factory reset will be my last resource.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] fareeed:
My bet is that it's the dual boot, never had a problem on .50 with the camera. Also, how does dual boot run, performance wise, I was thinking of trying it? :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
Strange, because I've been using dual boot since v0.2 launched, and never got this problem.

Performance, it's great. I'm using Stock .50 with AOKP. Both run perfectly.

"I got my values. So you can keep yours, OK?"
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] KidCarter93:
Maybe a new version of the dual boot needs to be done because it seems like it's pulling a conflict like that.

Since my post yesterday about this thread being just for the Xperia S, I've received a couple of PMs asking me if I'll extend this thread to cover the other Xperia devices.

The answer is, I'd love to but with me not having the other devices it's not really gonna be possible for me to help out that much.

So, this is where I could do with everyone's help.

If we can find some regular members who own the other devices and are really helpful (preferably RCs but not essential) then PM me and let me know who they are. I can then PM them and ask if they'd be able to help out with this thread aswell, so that way together we can help out as many people in this forum as possible.

Thanks in advance for your support with this.

Remember, if you can help this get better it will also be better for all of you :)

Is it possible to flash Xperia SL with Xperia S custom firmware?? :confused:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] xyrer:
Where to begin

Hi, I had a Motorola Defy for the last year, using CM since day one, now that I bought my Xperia S I unlocked the bootloader and rooted it so far but with the defy I had cwm and flashed kernel and rom from there, reading the forums I have found lots of info about doing the same for the xperia s but some threads tell me one thing, others tell me otherwise, other contradict the firsts, etc.

So, my question is: at THIS day, what is the best way to install CM10 knowing what I have already done to the phone? I have found a lot of threads that say just "flash kernel" but don't specify the recovery method, why use one kernel and not other for that specific rom and so forth.

Also, with the release of CM10 M2, including xperia S on the list, but not on the get.cm website I got confused, should I get the Freexperia version or try to find M2 for it? do I have to go thru all the changelogs to know what works and what not in the last version of cm10 for nozomi?
