Hi.

I can't get tethering wifi works... any idea?

Anyone knows how to install bravia engine?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] SaZh047:
Search Button man.. It's currently not working on this ROM... But Rayman said it will in the next version...

SEARCH & READ !
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Redstarr1:
It's not possible to use Bravia Engine on anything but stock-based roms, and if you want BE in your Album app you also need a locked bootloader.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RaymanFX:
Here's a quick fix for WiFi tethering :)

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] alex.tartan:
another quickfix?

Hi RaymanFX,

Any chance the 1px offset issue is fixable with another quickfix? It's driving me nuts. (don't know how other users 'see' this, but for me, it shows up in every application - browser, gmail, google play, xda, 9gag official, settings...)

One thing that 'fixed' it was adding the navigation bar to the bottom. This would push a black 1px line to the top, and was making it 'bearable'.

But it was too high to keep it always on. I tried to mod it, but couldn't get it below 20px height. So i disabled it...

Any help (zip, tutorial link, code lines...) would be greatly appreciated.

Keep up the great work!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] alveos:
I am using black wallpaper, and there is no 1px line ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Gallardo994:
1 - man, are you serious? Try to scroll settings.

2 - one hint: screenshots will never show such offsets. Never.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] sneaky55121:
Thank you,

I have found many options of BE in the forum, but I don't know which of these should I use, have you tried any or could recommend me any?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ciaastek:
You didn't understand what he said, don't you?

IT WILL NOT WORK.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mat2057:
Hey, this sounds good!

However, I built CM 10.1 with the kernel of the "jb_mr1_chocolate_staging" branch. It seems that MDP composition works not as good as in the previous kernel. The screen sometimes flicker when apps are updated (like Flickr, Twitter...) but there are also random crashes.

For example, in the SMS app, if you want to use the smiley panel (by holding the smiley key on the keyboard), this panel isn't visible. You need to move your finger to make it appear. Here is the logcat of what happens when I hold the "key" (edit: with chocolate-mr1 too):

And in the text file you can see what happens when I open the Application settings for the first time (a crash in the Adreno driver).

Despite it's not related to your RC-1 version, I can submit what I find on the Google website. Just tell me if you want.

Good luck

Rayman, is 1080p recording and camera working on 4.3?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Android_UK:
From what I can tell from using letamas version most things work but then again its experimental.

As for 1080 recording its in there but until Sony release a fix for the stuttering it will be ad is across the board for jelly bean on our devices.

how is the battery life in rc1
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] darkado:

This is my battery stats on RC1:

In first case battery wasn't even full, it was on 90% when I unplugged it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] alveos:
Any info about new update? Rayman, how is video recording? Still laggy on 1080p?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Redstarr1:
Are you going to ask this every day? Stock 4.1 is getting an update that should fix the laggy 1080p recording (hopefully soon, a screenshot has been leaked). Once that's out, maybe RaymanFX can get it fixed over here.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kin912:
I want to know the single of aoba can be fixed？ [MENTION=3463426]RaymanFX[/MENTION]
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] switzerland92:
I think 4.2.2 is on hold because Rayman works on 4.3 so I wouldn't be surprised if this thread locks and new one appears ( CM 10.2 ).
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] cronot:
Link please?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RaymanFX:
RC2 incoming!

It will mostly contain the following:

CyanogenMod upstream code updates

WiFi tethering fixed

New kernel with undervolting support, optimizations, various new ioschedulers/governors

Camera crashes fixed (finally)

1080p video recording (laggy until we get the update from Sony)

Refined video drivers (still not perfect, but a good step ahead)

Awkward battery drain should be fixed (atleast a few scenarios have been ironed out)

Please note that it is late in the evening and I am yet to push some of the latest source bits.

So when building OpenSEMC right now, you'll not get the exact build I will be posting later.

Since I am moving on to integrating our sources to 4.3, things could get a bit messy the next few days and I really recommend waiting for the 4.3 build until building the platform. It will contain all the latest fixes, the newest kernel and more goodies!

I'll broadcast again when the new ROM is fully uploaded and good to be flashed!

Hang tight :)

Oh, and a 4.3 (MR2) build will be following shortly.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] seahorsepip:
Same fix as letama has in alpha 4 I guess?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RaymanFX:
nope. in fact, all the recent fixes (hwcomposer, vsync kernel patches, data connection fixes et all) were developed/brought to OpenSEMC by me to 100%.

Actually, all my source is open and on GitHub, so everyone can help contributing, whereas he did only put his kernel on GIT (and without wanting to insult him here, he commited in a really bad and messy way so hardly anyone can understand), making contributing/collaborating with him really hard.

Don't get me wrong now, I am sure he's capable of delivering excellent work, but if only he would share his goddamn source...

STATUS UPDATE ON 0.2: flashable OTA zip tested and confirmed working, just the upload takes a while...expect updated links in 2nd post in approx. 4-5 hours (got some other things to upload, first).

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Phantasm4489:
I've hacked around with the gallery2.apk and got 12mp, 9mp, 8mp and 5mp resolutions working nicely.

Its a complete hack of the apk using a hex editor and not built from the source but it seems to work ok for now. I'll build a proper version later on (hopefully) tonight

Just extract the zip and copy the gallery2.apk into /system/app and change the permissions to rw-r--r--
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nhnt11:
I've been wanting to look into this myself for a while now. What file is it in? I've cherry picked the recent software HDR patch from gerrit and also testing a fix to display all focus modes, might as well add the resolution fix and share.

Edit: Think I found it. Need to compile/test.

Edit2: Working. Will upload soon.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] seahorsepip:
Waiting patiently :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nhnt11:
Here's a modified Camera/Gallery app, it includes the following:

-- Auto-rotate both Camera and Gallery regardless of system setting (patch1, patch2)

-- Software HDR (patch1, patch2)

-- Support for 12MP, 9MP photos

-- Choose focus modes in camera menu.

To install: Copy apk to sdcard, move it to /system/app in file manager, set permissions to -rw-r--r--, reboot. Remember to make a backup first.

NOTE: This is compiled on a 4.2.2 source tree and may not work on 4.2.1. Not sure about this though.

Just too soon :P
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] seahorsepip:
Can you tell me what you edited in the hex editor?

edit2: it's not working :( >.<, it should work on 4.2.2 aosp too right?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nhnt11:
Maybe because I compiled for 4.2.2. I thought it may work since 4.2.1->4.2.2 wasn't very big but maybe you should wait till Rayman uploads the new build.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] seahorsepip:
I use 4.2.2 aosp so that shouldn't be the issue :/

Maybe you forgot to readd some files after compiling from the original apk?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nhnt11:
Nah. CyanogenMod/AOSP are not necessarily compatible. CM has a lot of overlays to support the plethora of hardware configurations that exist. Plus as I understand Rayman and LeTama are not using the same device-specific sources. Get me a logcat and I'll see.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zekozeko:
Would you describe current video drivers (rc2) as stable as those in cm10 by fxp or better or worse :) As always, thanks for great work on our device!

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] someone755:
[MENTION=3343145]zekozeko[/MENTION], I'd say that even the RC1 ones were better than any FXP ones (no hate, just a honest opinion), and, if I've learned anything from Rayman's releases it's that every next one is far better than any before. :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] cronot:
Hey [MENTION=3463426]RaymanFX[/MENTION],

I've seen you pushed a few CPU governors a while back (few weeks ago, but haven't checked since then), and I don't recall noticing the Sakuractive governor in the list - is it included? Since it's the only governor (that I know of - someone may correct me if I'm wrong) that has the feature of disabling the second core under low system load, I think it would be a great asset to have WRT battery life.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RaymanFX:
Just noticed TWRP has some big issues which render the recovery system unusable on the build I just wanted to upload ...

I think I found the issues though, need to recompile and test again. It won't take long, all the other fixes are good and in place.

I've been using OpenSEMC v4 (the version with volume wake) since forever, and it's still one of the fastest 4.2.2 builds I've ever used on my device.

Can anyone confirm to me if the current RC1 or upcoming RC2 is as smooth and stable as v4?

BTW, thanks a lot RaymanFX for your continued work on OpenSEMC!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] alex.tartan:
I've been using RC1-chocolate since it was uploaded. It's the smoothest 4.2 rom out there.

The only issue is the 1px offset (which some users here don't have).

RC1 doesn't have this glitch, but it has a bit (just a bit) more lag.

RaymanFX went a long way from v4. Try it out!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zekozeko:
OpenSEMC is based on stable cm sources or nightlies?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] cronot:
Nightlies.

In the case of CM 10.1, it doesn't really matter since it's now feature frozen because development efforts are now focused on CM 10.2, so current CM 10.1 nightlies are pretty much the same as the current stable, maybe with a few bugfixes. CM 10.2 technically doesn't have nightlies yet, and Rayman has yet to release the build he has been working on anyway, shortly after releasing his latest CM 10.1 build later today (hopefully). But since OpenSEMC is not supposed to be the "official" CM distribution for the XS, it will probably always be based off the latest CM sources pushed to github ( = nigthlies).
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] alveos:
I use black wallpaper, and i dont have 1px line there. Rc1 chocolate is one of the bests roms for xperis s. There is rom which uses android 4.3. Its fast, but it still has many bugs. Lets wait for an rc2 update and see if it will be much better than before.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] someone755:
Using a black LW still doesn't help, as it's not only a launcher issue, but rather the SystemUI's. Try opening an ebook reader app, it'll drive you nuts. :P

Awesome job there! Working as nice or better than chocolate. One small bug on the camera: Part of the preview area starts flickering after awhile; but it's not freezing anymore, so it's just a minor nuisance, the camera is perfectly usable now.

One question: from which branch (on github) you're building the kernel that's on this release? I'd like to poke a little at it, but there are so many branches - some appear to be related to Android 4.3 - that I don't know which one would be the correct one to use.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] smiechowy:
is there changelog anywhere?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] cronot:
That's as close as you can get until RaymanFX himself makes the official announcement. Although, in the scheduler/governors part, I've spotted only SIO has new, the CPU governors list still seem to be unchanged and we have yet to see how the battery will behave from now on.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] andrew259:
Should i flash this new gapps ?

Edit: The 1px bug is solved. Rom is smooth like hell. Tks Rayman, great work.

Finally I can get more battery juice by UC and UV, I usually UV high freq 150-125mV without problems.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RaymanFX:
Thanks for the heads-up! :)

Hey, I know, video drivers are still not perfect, I'm working restless on them and hope that one day, I can get them perfect. But that's just a dream for now, although I think I have reached quite a usable state here.

At first, I thought the flickering would be because of incorrect mixer (0/1) handling, turns out I was wrong, seemed to fail because of underrun issues on msm8660 this time, so I increased MDP ab and ibw vectors and bandwidth to no avail, now I think I narrowed it down to fence sync issues, we'll see what the future brings :)

The kernel source used for RC2 is "opensemc-rc2-release" in the OpenSEMC kernel repository.

Yep, there were various issues with the kernel I originally wanted to use, but as I said, it had issues with recovery and basically stabbed minui to death (no UI in recovery) which is not acceptable. And it was not an double-buffering issue this time for sure.

Battery should still be better though, because of better video drivers.

Newer = better for the most things, so why not.

The 1 pixel row bug has been fully resolved :)

So after this, consider RC2 officially released!

I think it deserves the 'RC' tag this time, or atleast much more than RC1.

Have fun and report back! :)

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] beup:
Just flashed your release for the first and i have to say that my first impression were really good, the rom is so smooth.

But i do have some questions (long time since i installed a CM based ROM) :

I wasnt able find where to enable USB debugging mode (it used to be on Settings>Application>Development, but when i go to Application i only have the list of all my apps)

Can we enable the wake display using volume controls ? (used to be on Settings>Display)

Otherwise everything is OK so far, i'll report later on battery life, i also encountered 3 times a UI FC (the notification bar disappear for 2-3 sec then reappear, not a big issue just to let you know)

Thanks for your work
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] someone755:
That was back in GB and Froyo. Debugging is under Settings>Developer options. (You enable them by tapping on the build number under Settings>About phone)

You should look into that volume rocker wake thing, I think you need the opensemc app for it (I'm probably wrong here). As far as I know, it's not a system setting.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Android_UK:
Hi Guys, awesome ROM.

Has anyone encountered a bug (the same one in RC-1 but not as severe) where the phone is in deep sleep and when pressing the power button it seems to take like 3-4 seconds longer for it to wake. At the same time this does not happen when the screen is off for a couple of minutes. Very minor I know.

A vast improvement from RC-1 though.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] entermetallica:
This problem occurs in a number of ROMS, most probably due to The internals of android/cyanogenmod.

minor glitch

i think i found a small bug: 180 rotation gives blank screen (sometimes gray, green... whatever color all across the screen and a 1px offset at the bottom - which is physical top of the phone ). (flashed after rc1-chocolate)

It's really nothing, just wanted to mention it here.

This aside, it's the smoothest rom out there. Great job RaymanFX! keep it up.

the new SIO scheduler is a real booster! (in my case)

waiting for your update, thanks

WRONG THREAD -- Removed
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] cronot:
No, and it's probably not a good idea at this point. RaymanFX is currently more focused on getting the ROM stable and fixing the remaining issues, and creating optimized builds with the Linaro toolchain has the potential (even if small) of introducing it's own obscure problems that may hinder the current focus. It'll probably happen at some point, but we're not quite at the optimization stage of development yet.
