R: [ROM] JB AOSP 4.2.2 alpha 4

You are right... :( ...

Btw, this evening i played with airplane mode on/off WHILE i was recording a logcat

And i made it! It crashed! (nice!)

I think 13806 line of logcat will be enough :p

But i have no computer around.. And im going to sleep.. So i will up the log tomorrow..

Finger crossed =D

Beta 1 out, most notable improvement is hdmi and otg bug fix.

I won't add FM radio, no aosp support, and it would be a bit messy with bluetooth.

Have fun!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] GiantAxe:
little question, uhm did you intergrate that newly discovered fix for screen flickering, and the real 60 fps butter thingy.?

never the less, HDMI working is great
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
No, I didn't change anything for flickering, hardware composition is not enabled.

Re: [ROM] JB AOSP 4.2.2 beta 1

Yep. Me too want to know about screen flickering and 60 fps.. And what about the battery backup Friends? Want to flash it in my uncle's SXS.. Pls reply someone? Any body tried the new beta 1 ?

From My Xperia S with XZX2 Jelly
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
Well, it doesn't flicker as hwc is not enabled. Regarding smoothness, well, it is, I don't see much difference compared to my nexus 7.

What is battery backup?

How about data loss ? Is it minimized ? Loving the speed :)

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] the_biu:
This looks really promising... Too bad about the FM Radio, it'd be just perfect to see it working on AOSP...

About hwc. Do you plan in enabling it any time?

Keep the great work man! :)

P.S.: and maybe think about FM Radio, hehe.

How do I flash that on loop when I'm on dualboot?

Already tried to repackage it, but it didn't work (kernel.elf?)

According to first post bootmanager is included, are there possible sideeffects?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Akhil:
Re: [ROM] JB AOSP 4.2.2 beta 1

You can't repackage it because it is already embedded with boot manager with this AOSP on native..

Wait for letama to release it for loop, keep checking the first page of dual boot thread.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
Well, it still happens, there is nothing new in beta 1 compared to alpha 4. I don't have it, data is rock solid for me. It seems related to android crash somehow or network, I still didn't find the root cause of the problem.

We'll see with Sony 4.1 release, FM is a bit complicated as it's linked to bluetooth and 4.2 changed the deal with bluetooth.

AFAIK, 5ghz wifi is impossible with XS, it misses the antenna ?

Yes, repackager script can't work with it. I'll add both loop and native soon in boot manager thread very soon.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
Thanks for the logs... both time it shows fence sync problem, and just before memory allocation failure. I think there is something wrong with Ion memory management, I'll dig into it.

Re: [ROM] JB AOSP 4.2.2 beta 1

Hi Letama I really loved alpha4 especially the fact that there was no flicker at all, and i will definitely try out beta1:).

What I really want to know is if this rom come with bootmanager does this mean I can easily have dual boot using the embedded bootmanager just by downloading a compatible rom to loop with?? :)

I have read the dual boot thread countless times but I just can't seem to wrap my head around it lol:( Please assist as I've always wanted to use dual boot functionalities, thanks in advanced:)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
Yes, exactly. You can dual boot easily as bootmanager is already embedded. It's easy, you'll see...

To do so:

1) When boot manager starts, go to settings, enable dual boot.

2) When you go back from settings, you will see that twrp for loop appeared

3) Start twrp. The first time, it will ask for system/cache/data partitions sizes, choose what fit your needs

4) Flash a loop rom and you're set.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] precardo:
Re: [ROM] JB AOSP 4.2.2 beta 1

Wow Letama thank you man, nice and easy to follow, cant wait to try:)... One more thing... as for the [ system/cache/data partition sizes ] I understand there should be three values to choose from if i'm not mistaken... Letama at your expert opinion, which of this values is best recommended??:) ...sorry to bother you;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
I'd go system 1G / cache 256M / data 1G if you have enough room. It really depends of how many apps you want to install on data and what kind of rom you want to use (stock based ones take room, JB 4.1 leak requires even more than that, cm9/10/aokp/pac/... can use 512 or 768 M).

It can be recreated afterward if you want to increase it for a specific rom anyway.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
today ril crashed 2 times, both times i had just switched off airplane mode
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
Thanks for the logs. It definitely seems to be related to airplane mode. I never use it, that's why I don't suffer from it, and I reproduced the problem by doing on/off few times... It helps a lot, I'll check that soon.

AW: [ROM] JB AOSP 4.2.2 beta 1

Beta 1 is great !!! Much smoother than cm10.1.

Thanks for your hard work!!!!!!

Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler. Albert Einstein
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
well, sometimes phone goes in roaming (and since i didn't enable mobile data roaming) data turns off

so switching on/off re-hook the mobile relay and i can come back to the internet :silly:

btw i have another logcat

today most of the time i was in airplane mode, because this night i couldn't recharge battery

during school break i was switching on 3G.. when (obviously .-.) ril crashed

the strange thing is that in the minute where i hard rebooted the phone.. i have lost 5% and maybe more of battery :eek:

is this normal?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] SnowOokami:
yah, it happens sometimes, it seems to be not rom related though.

had it with many roms :/ I think it's battery indicator software related.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Kagath:
Thanks letama for your work on the Xperia S, i love you :D

Do you work on a beta 2 or do you still kernel 3.4 ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
:)

Yes, I'm still working on beta 2. It's going very slowwww as work takes all my free time these days.

I'm concentrating on fixing bugs, I'm currently trying to fix the airplane bug, without success so far. I fixed a first issue with airplane, but it's now hitting another one and I didn't find any solution yet.

I'm not waiting for 3.4 kernel specifically, but it could solve the fence/3d issue. And new ril in 4.1 could behave better, but as current works fine with stock 4.0, we should be able to do the same with 4.1 and 4.2... We'll see.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
i can say there's even another little bug with kernel ril management

sometimes mobile signal gets low.. and the only thing that the phone can do is hook 2G signal (which unfortunately isn't covered from my data plan)

i disabled roaming and all goes good (i'm not complaining of this)

but when i return in an high coverage area... phone keeps staying in 2G.. so i turn on/off airplane mode (50% of times buggy :p) and i magically got a 4 bars 3.5G signal :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
Interesting one! :) I think I saw it a couple of time, I'll keep an eye on it.

What I'd try to recover from this is data off/on instead of airplane. If it works, this one shouldn't crash the ril.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
Yes, it's top priority currently. It's probably not kernel related as it charges properly in normal use and I didn't touch anything related to usb/charge in it.

I think there are ways to get it charge even without offline charging, but it takes forever to charge. I hope I'll be able to fix it soon, we'll see.

I'll try some day, I need to clean up the mess and make a proper device tree and appropriate patches on a separate branch. Currently, it doesn't build by itself, you have to manually build parts, and the proprietaries I grabbed from cm10 were copied directly, not through build.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] seahorsepip:
Devicename change and rebot didn't help, I even changed a lot of other keys too to sony and nozomi but still no luck :(
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] SnowOokami:
I softbricked my Phone with a kernel (nova) without offline charging support... god I almost killed myself :silly: but yea it takes about 30 minutes to charge up to 1 or 2%.... problem is, the phone keeps randomly booting after a few minutes, draining that 1% :P

anyway good job guys!

After 15 hrs of usage,

1.The ROM is pretty much stable , no red frame issues like in cm 10.1.

2. Sound,video,camera,wifi everything are working perfectly.

3.The brightness bar is not working.

4.I guess there are some errors in build.prop due to which i was unable to download games from play store.

5.The in call volume seems to be better than cm 10 and others ROMs based on it.

6.Sony apps like launcher, keyboard, wallpapers, widgets and some apps are also working perfectly.

7.OpenGL ES 2.0 apps are not working.

TIP:- Tapping the build number seven times in about phone will enable developer options in settings .(This is for those who doesn't know it.)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
Hi Guys!

Thanks for all the feedback.

First, concerning offline charging, I fixed the issue and will post a fix soon. JB 4.2.x init has the exec command support removed. I re-enabled it and it's now working properly.

Now, regarding your reports:

1) Can you give me more detail about the brightness issue that was reported multiple times ? From where ? I checked both Settings and big button, both are working on mine

2) Regarding OpenGL ES 2.0, I'll take a look, any free app that will show it quickly ?

For me brightness is working but auto brightness is not working, i tried both ways. For OpenGL apps i didn't tried them.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
I don't know, but it could yes. Bluetooth is partially working, it pairs properly with my headset and reacts to buttons fine. Audio is messed up, but that's it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
Auto brightness, I'm aware of it yes. It's very low priority for me as it's a bit messed up already in stock and cm, I'm using the als toggle app (Disable Auto Brightness Xperia in play store) to get rid of it and get the extra brightness. I'll keep it in mind though.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
Patch for offline charging uploaded to post #2, I strongly suggest using it, it's safer for your phone. It may also help with sensors as it's one of the execs that were not working.

Just flash it from recovery and reboot.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Akhil:
Re: [ROM]JB AOSP 4.2.1 alpha 1

About open GL apps , I tried next launcher but it is a paid app, if I find any free open GL 2.0 app I ll inform you ..

Brightness bar doesn't seem to work , moving the slider doesn't make any change , it stays at the same level..

Thanks for the offline charge fix..

Next thing I really want you to fix is the build.prop due to which many of us are unable to download any game from play store and I have tried editing it also but its not helping.

Re: [ROM]JB AOSP 4.2.1 alpha 1

How is performance? Is it better? ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Akhil:
The performance is great and yes it is better than cm 10.1 because of hardware acceleration ,if you don't bluetooth, hdmi, nfc frequently , you can use it as a daily driver and it is best to be used as a second ROM on a dual boot.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
another bunch of problems spotted!

so, the first problem happened while i was heavily multitasking between game, goggle maps (A-GPS + gps + whatever else) and some other which i don't remember.

screen stuck on, unable to lock and do anything else, but the 3 buttons at the bottom (the touch buttons) vibrate when pressed

the second happens while i was updating firefox beta and i had just opened a folder in quickpick (a gallery app) after i had sent a message on whatsapp

as soon as it was loading the thumbnails of the medias.. it has frozen, and it rebooted (displaying boot manager logo)

best :fingers-crossed:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] rolex0815:
I'm not sure if some stuff is not related to bootmanager (not bootmanager itself, but being installed in loop). For example, if I'm producing heavy stress on the phone, like opening apps, switching to playstore, upgrading other apps and that all within a short period, the phone is more unresponsive than on CM10 (native!).

No tweaks are used; no OC, etc.

On the other hand, I'm now using this ROM since 1.5 months and I never had issues with data loss here (provider "3", net type: HSDPA and also no problems if manually switched to 2G with edge).

It's pretty stable, can't remember one single crash or reboot.

:good:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
well, of course if are doing so much things phone will slow down

i mean especially updating apps (particularly if games). this make lots of intensive I/O operations, i think it's pretty normal if then other programs slows down

changing schedulers could help and yes, loop emphasize this type of problem
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
First log is showing fence problem, I couldn't see the usual memory allocation failure but if you were doing heavy multitasking I guess it could be the cause. I really hope that 3.4 kernel will solve this issue. I worked on a 3.4 kernel, it works quite well but I still have few drivers to port to make it usable. Hopefully with Sony 4.1. release, I would be able to use their and won't have to finish mine :)

Second one doesn't show much except some video decoding activity before reboot, no errors. Weird, could be baseband crash I guess.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] GoldenRazz:

It's not supported in AOSP but you can flash a mod but I don't know for sure if any is supported on this rom. Don't try it unless someone with appropriate knowledge regarding this advices you. For the time being, use dash clock with battery extension.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Scirwode:
I just wanted to ask here. I use to have an Xperia S and was happily using this ROM with little issues. However, my phone went kaput so to speak (apparently motherboard issue, one of the few devices to have it) and now Sony is going to replace my device with a small charge with the Xperia SL. I am getting the phone tomorrow so I was wondering if I can install this ROM on the SL. I know they are similar in terms of specs but do I need to do anything to get it working on my part?

Just an honest question :) .

Scirwode
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
Well, yes and no: development is not stopped, I'm still working on it, but very slowly, still no free time.

I didn't make any progress that would justify a release. The only thing I found is a workaround for the airplane bug:

setprop persist.radio.apm_sim_not_pwdn 1

solves the issue with my current telephony framework. I don't know if it works with beta 1 as I fixed few other things before finding this one. But except this, nothing. I'm toying with Sony leak proprietaries, RIL for now, without much success so far.

3.4 kernel is on my list, we'll see when it comes...

This is binary only, we can't use it like that, we need source code to be able to add 4.2.2 display driver from nexus 4 or caf.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] rolex0815:
Just a suggestion:

You can take the new baseband, but I think you've already done that. :)

I just replaced it in my own builds in CM10 and it's working fine.

Although I don't recognize any improvements or regressions with new baseband.

It will have the same quirks as Sony though: 1080p stuttering, volume up bugs are there. Voip is not working properly too, I removed it so Google now and skype are ok, but so far that's all I was able to "fix".

Will the next version have dual bootmanager built-in? I seriously don't need it. Is there any way to remove it and get simple 'Sony' logo?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] letama:
Yes, it will have bootmanager.

It's there to at least provide recovery. I don't want to deal with adding the recovery in a mixed cpio like it's currently done everywhere else, last time I tried to use a 3.4 kernel with twrp, graphics didn't come up. I know that bootmanager recovery is rock stable, I don't want to add potential instability there.

Bootmanager adds something like 5 seconds to boot time compared to the other solution, it's a small price to pay for peace of mind with recovery.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Aniket:
Ok thanks. If removing it is gonna make it unstable, i can live with the bootmanager :).
