Follow the CM10 FXP guide on their thread. It's the right one. If you do EXACTLY how it is said, on the said order, it will work. Just remembering you will lose camera and HDMI, and maybe one or another things.

FXP and get.cm builds are basically the same. If the FXP changelog said that it was updated to M2, it's exactly the same, so don't worry.

I'm trying to flash DooMRecovery, I just unlocked my bootloader but can please anyone tell me how I flash DooMRecovery ?

I'm so confused!

---------- Post added at 10:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 PM ----------

I downloaded the rom manager app and followed the steps

Start the ROM Manager APP

Click on Menu

Select Manual Flash Override

Click OK at the next prompt

Confirm phone model as "LT26i"

Confirm version as "ClockworkMod 3.x+"

Click OK at the next prompt

How do I boot into recovery though? :S

assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") error on acro-s

Hi,

I have flashed cm10.1 on my Acro-s there I found the speakerphone volume far too low, and also people could not hear me well,

so I tried to flash some other roms/kernels...

Right now I am (back) to some rooted .200 jellybean stock roms. because somewhere along the way, I could not flash (anymore) my .zip files with CWM anymore.

I got some error like this: assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "lt26w " || getprop("ro.build.product") == "lt26w "

Now I can and have flashed with newest flashtool the stock roms ftf lt26w acro-s alright, but how can I repair 'something' in my phone that maybe causes this error that I cannot flash the .zip files because of this assert error.

(and they are exactly the same files that I could flash maybe a week or a month ago, no error messages then...)

I hope someone knows how to solve this, I found some threads that say remove this line from this file in a zip, but that If i get it to work, would need to be done in all new zip's for the acro-s that I download. So I rather if possible get this in the phone right...

I have an unlocked bootloader, still have the unlock code from sony somewhere if I would need that.

And I am in search for the CWM for the .200 rom acro-s that is as stock as possible, for I have also had some other kernels that have caused me to not charge the battery, with searching and a lot patience and this trick I found on the forum (little charging with red light waith ten minutes, when reboot, then shutdown & reboot in fastboot and quicly flash a kernel...I got that finally fixed and the phone is working...

Regards,

Bernhard
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
The zip checks for Lt26w, while that might have changed in build.prop after you flashed CM10.1... Since it cannot find that, it blocks the installation. Try to open the updater-script and remove the lines that read LT26w... Make sure it isn't saved as .txt, put back in the right place inside the zip... Then try again...

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Lunatiic:
I'm having some minor issues with my XS lately, using the DoomKernel v5 and eXistenZ v2 rom.

1) Everytime I open an app, like Facebook or Instagram, i'm facing a force close of Xperia Home, so, when I press the Home button, everything has to load again ( icons, widgets, etc..). I've been facing this problem even when I was on the Stock .200, and I don't use any Task Killer or battery saving app.

2) Sometimes when playing games, using the browser or using any other hardware demanding application, the app closes from nowhere, and it's really annoying because I have to re-open all tabs again, or start the game all over from the last "save". :(

3) Google Services are draining my battery, even with Google Now, Sync. and localization settings off.

4) I had to use Google Maps for about 20 minutes, and my battery jumped from 95% to 69% ( -26% ). On the stock rom it was way less drain.

I have between 200 and 250 MB of free memory, using the "deadline" I/O scheduler, with "ondemand" governor. :confused:

Can someone give me a hand? :highfive:

Hey! So I'm new to the xperia thread, but not new to xda. I'm trying to fix a friend's phone (I'm pretty sure it's an Xperia Ion) and I can't seem to get it into fastboot mode. When I hold volume up and plug it in, the LED lights up red, then when it's fully charged, it changes to green. From what I understand, it should light up blue when it's in fastboot mode. What am I doing wrong?

EDIT: update! I think my problem is a lack of drivers/android SDK, I'm on a different computer than my home computer. So I'm going to try to install both and maybe that'll fix it.

EDIT2: Do I have to have USB debugging turned on? Because I am locked out of this phone, and debugging is off...

What I could think you could do is to flash a new stock ROM... You can dirty flash (without wiping data) or a clean one. If your friend can cost of losing his data, do a clean install. Only apps, messages, most games, contacts etc will be lost. Files in sd Card will not be erased (music, photos, videos, etc)...

AOSP ROM for SL with best battery backup

Dear All,

So far, I've been using stock rom's both native and custom made. But now I want to xperience AOSP ROM's. Can anyone please recommend me an AOSP Rom with the best battery backup for xperia S/SL?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
So the phone still turns on... You could try the force reset. While on, press and hold volume up coupled with power button until the phone vibrates 3 times shortly. (It vibrates once and a few seconds more holding, 3 times). That will do a reset. Though I don't know what it cleans exactly...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Ben36:
apart from moving apps to sd and text alert only vibrates (both to be fixed in the next release) letama's 4.3 rom is flawless
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Brooklnd:
This does not clean anything. It's just a way to manually force-shutdown the device. Pretty similar to removing the battery of a phone, if something goes wrong.:)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
No, up to 1 vibration is a force shutdown. Hold long enough to have 3 vibrations is a reset.

Root without PC, restore photo

Hello to everybody, this is my 1st msg.

Much grateful if anyone helps with:

I recently accidentally cleared internal storage with all photos (due to small font confused "internal" with "internet"). The storage is now empty, nothing new was written to the album. Now would like to check some "undelete / recover / restore" programs to try to restore photos. These programs that I came across in the market work only with rooted devices. Another problem is that it's a few months that I can't connect to PC (the phone only charges, not detected by PC). In the service center I was told that my phone'd no longer connect to PC in data transfer mode due to some voltage / non-native cable used / something wrong with some micro scheme...

So the questions are:

- Any way to restore photo without root / without PC?

- Any way to root without PC? In order to later use some market apps to restore photos, again without PC.

The phone is Xperia S LT26i, android 4.1.2, build 6.2.B.0.211, wi-fi is ok.

Thanks a lot

Try uninstalling Facebook app (root uninstaller-you must have root) then reinstall it as 3rd party app from play store. Then hibernate it with Greenify. Another solution is to go in settings/applications, find Facebook app then click uninstall updates then click deactivate.

I think it could be because your computer has to go through the USB interface on your android and then the external SD interface on your android. That's two bottlenecks. If you just take out the SD and put it in your pc, it should be faster.

Simply use sd mounter if ur rooted then there a few more apps that would let u use the device as mass storage.

You can reinstall Facebook again as a user app. Greenify can only hibernate user apps, not system apps. And don't think of Greenify as a taskkiller, it simply prevents selected app to run unless you open the app yourself. The resource drain is minimal, it's never in the top battery drainers and ever since I started using it Facebook hasn't been either.
