Do you want want to extract only recovery?

It will be supported in the next release I think.

If you want to flash an aokp 4.1.2 kernel with embedded recovery it will not work.

Yup, support for extracting custom recovery ramdisks from FOTA images is added in 0.3.

Last actual update before 0.3 release:

V0.3 currently uploading.

I am right now starting to work on Ubuntu Touch; shouldn't be long to an actual release!

It's only me currently, and I guess I am one of the first android developers to start porting this to a non-nexus device.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] elfeneco:
Well I've downloaded the rom but I will wait other feedbacks before installing... Thx.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RaymanFX:
This might occur sometimes, as the recovery is still semi-broken.

Please fastboot-flash another boot image (

arkamar stock kernel

would be good or anything with

TWRP

) and boot into recovery afterwards. From there on, install the OpenSEMC OTA ZIP; it will be all fine this time.

EDIT:

it could aswell be a bad download (more likely, actually) so please compare MD5 hashes.

To the one who asked about mirror policy:

I shall never limit my work to anything (money, profit, etc), so everybody is allowed to share and mirror all of my work, regardless of what it is / how old it is, or anything. Do what you want with my work, except for claiming it being your own work :).

to stop screen flickering you have to turn off/on the GPU overlays in developer settings.... at least that's what I've heard, however I can't access the developer settings screen for some reason.

Yes, I did it and no problem !

Thanks for the camera drivers updates, the photo quality is the same as stock rom ?

Unfortunately, the rear/front camera has always the picture distorted and only 720p video recording instead 1080p ;).

How to resolve screen flickering problems without turn off/on the GPU overlays in developer settings ?

Is it possible to include the function (like in the stock rom) to take pictures directly from standby mode with a long press of the camera button ?

I always think a Xperia Z (for ex) launcher with Sony application (album widgets etc.) would be very good on this rom.

Last thing, every time I install a rom or I do an update of rom, my battery tends to discharge more quickly (or the indictator is wrong ) ?? How to resolve this problem ? Just charge to 100% ?? Thanks.

And special thanks to :

Problem solved for me (after reboot).

Thank you in advance !
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nhnt11:
No clue since I used the stock ROM only long enough to ensure my new device booted ;P

The picture preview is distorted when taking widescreen pictures due to a bug in the way Camera renders it. I've been meaning to look into that. As for 1080p, from what I saw it's not supported by the current camera driver we're using (correct me if I'm wrong) so it may take a while before we get that. (perhaps it's worth looking at the libs from the 4.1.2 leak?)

Rayman has answered this multiple times. Screen flicker issues will be solved after the official Sony release.

Something I've been wanting to look into. I'll submit a patch to CM if I get it to work. Should be easy since volume buttons to wake already work.

This will never happen. This is a clean, no frills distribution of CyanogenMod 10.1.

It should settle after a couple of charge cycles.

Just one thing about the answer of my question about Sony features like Xperia Z launcher, Sony features (widgets, album etc.) :

For me that's not frills! Besides, I do not see the point of buying a Sony smartphone for its features if it's for having the same as any smartphone (that's why I buy Sony smartphone like tons of customers)! The Sony launcher and its widgets are better than the original ones on JB, Sony worked very hard over many years to deliver it. It would be interesting to find a way to include them like I saw on several roms, with the quality of "Open SEMC".

---------- Post added at 07:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:40 PM ----------

Do we have to follow the same procedure?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MadCobbler:
Just flash it as you would any other rom.

A dirty build is when you compile a rom, and then when you come to compile the next rom you don't clean the build directory out so all the files are there from the previous build, and in theory it only updates the files it needs too. But if there is anything in the previous build that was a problem, that problem could remain and you're more likely to have problems.

A clean build is where the build directory is cleaned usually with the 'make clobber' command and the compile starts from fresh and all the files in the build are new and there will be nothing leftover from previous build

The reason I mentioned the dirty build was the fact that the previous build I did didn't boot, like the one from the OP...
