Hello I have a problem like that with my battery time! My rom is Null_23! and I have GPS turned off and do not have Facebook or some app that eats battery! My kernel is Siyah 1 8 9 + Baseband i9300BUEMA1, Modem XXEMA2. And have tried lot of ROMS to be battery friendly! Still, I bat time minder than 12 hours, and then I might talk up to 20 minutes a day! and I have not changed anything in STweaks for I dare ite and understand me not quite at that. I have the Samsung original charger. Have heard that there are tweaks that you drive through CMW but they work and if they do it Vilen should I have and what settings you should run with the bat good time in STweak!

I've heard of news that XAS is getting a Jellybean update this march. But would Sony skip to 4.2 or just 4.1. Sony has very slow OTA updates. Jellybean has been out for ages but there is still no official JB update.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] soldiers33:
it will be 4.1 like the rest of the phones.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
4.1, as Qualcomm didn't gave 4.2 sources for S3 processors.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
The newest builds never make it to older devices. When the Nexus devices get a build no other devices get it and it has always been like that. Seeing as 4.2.2 just went out I would think it wont be long before manufacturers get more help with 4.2.1. As we all know it takes time to get it all right. The developers here and everywhere can afford to release a beta to us but for a big company like Sony to do that it would be suicide. They have to make sure it is right or we will hang them lol.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Rajeev:
Is anybody using acro s here.? Pls let me know the availabile free RAM ... I am using xperia s and its free ram is 230 to 220 always .. Going to buy acro s next week. Thats y i am asking... Pls some one... With a screen shot pls....

From My SXS with XTX7 ROM
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bluerain28:
Yes it's 200mb+ free ram. What do you want with a more free ram? In Android, Free ram is a wasted RAM. Even if my phone (Acro S) has 200MB+ of free ram. My phone can still do what I want it to do. It doesn't lag at all. So don't be afraid of that free ram. There's a memory optimizer with in the system. :eek:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Rajeev:
Thank u for the reply. One doubt. If free ram is known as waste ram means y peoples using task killers to kill apps and free up ram?

From My SXS with XTX7 ROM
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] fzelle:
Using a Taskkiller is only usefull in one single situation, when a missbehaving App has to be killed.

By missbehaving I mean running wild.

Otherwise the memmorymanagement of Android is robust enough.

I don't think the available ram on acro s will be higher, because they have same cpu, same gpu and the same running system (4.0.4).

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] syam7863:
I think using task killer gives more harm than good unless in dire situation where ur apps are running crazy.

Android memory management will kill apps when it needs memory accordingly.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] avik735:
I too am planning to buy the Acro S. It's available on ebay.in, u can get it there. Sony hasn't launched it in India, so u won't get manufacturer's warranty though. Some sellers on ebay are selling it with 1 year Servepro warranty, it's a third party warranty service, it's good. And u can also extend Servepro warranty when ur warranty expires. Take a look at the link below. (remove the dashes)

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Barleyman:
The beef here is what's using the ram you have and how much you have in total. The xperia T jellybean update apparently bumps total available Ram to 800MB from 640 or so that XS has. More usable ram is always a good thing. Second issue here is that if firmware loads bloatware, it will always be hanging there fighting for resources. Booting stuff out of ram and reloading that browser from flash is always slower than having the browser stay in RAM the 1st place. Task killers are not that useful, true, but stopping some Facebook helper app you don't want from loading at all is.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lewis021:
Yes it was, it will definitely be 4.1 . JB was released ages ago. Samsung had already released 4.2 on other devices. Sony is really falling behind.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bluerain28:
Can you specify which Samsung devices? And how many? :confused::confused::confused::eek:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mrpuppy:
I think you should skip Acro S and made it to T/TX or V. If you change to Acro S it'll be the same only with water resistance, waste of money. Or wait for other product in 2013 line.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bluerain28:
Why waste of money? Can you explain it further with a "valid" reason. Don't reason out the specification part. Thanks.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Redstarr1:
Samsung hasn't released 4.2 on any devices. Yes Sony is falling behand but not as extremely as you're saying. There has been a 4.2 leak for the Galaxy S3, but that doesn't make it official. I mean there's also a 4.1 leak for the XS.

Galaxy Ace was never going to get an update to ICS because it has an armv6 soc. ICS requires some armv7 libs, Qualcomm also never made OpenMax drivers for the GPU so YouTube would choppy etc. My previous phone has the same soc, you could easily install CM9/CM10/CM10.1, most of the issues surrounding missing drivers have been resolved, but the device still has a very limited amount of memory so GB is probably the best version it will ever get.

He's just being dramatic, there's a 4.2.1 leak for the SGS3 but Samsung hasn't released anything officially. I can take months before the official rom is released.

Because the Acro S is basically the same as the XS but with expendable storage (and less onboard) and waterproofness. It would be a bit idiotic to buy a phone full price if you already have exactly the same. And it would be even more stupid to buy said phone because you hope to get more performance, but it's exactly the same inside. I say that's a valid reason. If he didn't already have an XS, it would make sense, but otherwise you could hardly call it an upgrade. Better to get an XV or Z then.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lewis021:
Sorry my bad. What I mean by that is XAS doesn't have any android 4.2 based ROMs. And Samsung has alot of developer support so it receives a variety of ROMs.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bluerain28:
I flash and tried OpenSemc CM10.1 JB4.2.2 on my Acro S and it's working but orientation is inverted.

Sv: Jellybean 4.2 Update Acro S

If you try to open up many apps and then look at your free ram, then open the multi task manager and swipe(remove) running apps you will ofcourse see a lot of free ram, maybe 300,

Now wait looking at the free ram without doing anything, you will soon have the same amount of ram as when heavy multitasking

Explain: android fills up unused ram,

when ram is needed, android smartly clean up enough ram for your tasks, with that said don't worry about ram at all,

using task managers will only drain battery as apps continuously restarts after you close them
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] thanitos:
I dont know enough to say this is 100% correct you can find arguments each way for any issue but, a task killer is good for killing any rogue apps that are just off to the races and unstoppable. That said we usually dont get that and honestly what I find uses my battery the most is our big beautiful screens, and data usage. If I leave data on and set my phone down I can use 10% easy but with data off that number drops less rapidly. I've slowly been disabling apps and from the ones I've stopped I've noticed a huge increase in speed on my ion. Namely the stock message app (for texting) lagged any app that used my keyboard so I DISABLED it, never uninstall of you can freeze it. I also disabled all facebook extensions I think facebook apps are the devil but that's only my opinion. I've stopped a lot of Google stuff too. You just gotta do a little at a time

Our phones arnt built with this community in mind, its all about the mainstream consumer who isn't looking to squeeze every last drop of performance from their phone but just wanting to have it do what all other phones do and honestly that's why apple does well. Here's a phone with limited options everything links to everything no issues. Good battery ok display ok camera good phone for mainstream. Android developers for phones are trying to cater to both sides they give us open sorce while the mainstream gets what we call bloatware. As my wife says it's comparing apples to oranges. Android cares for developers and users while apple just cares about consumers, not to say that is bad. In the end, for guys and ladies like us it's up to the great developers we under appreciate for all there hard work that gives both android and apple a place in the "squeeze out every drop" group like US. I kinda forgot where I was going with this I just wanted to post before work! Please note I'm not bashing apple or android or anything I just see both for their strengths and weakness like we all should see everything in life. I will bash LG though... The LG thrill< any flip phone from 1995....... Later all! :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
Ok, in part K agree with you, but just a bit. Task killers are meant to kill misbehaving apps, and that only. But it decreases performance and battery life, as most apps Will restart after a big. That consumes CPU power, that uses more battery life.

Also, if you start disabling all the apps JUST for battery life, then you shouldn't have got a smartphone. Buy a dumb phone and battery lasts 5 days+...

I disable some apps, such as Maps, DLNA service, because I don't use them, not because I want more battery life...

I always try to equilibrate battery life and usage. My screen isn't almost never over 50%, even because I don't need much. Data, most of time isn't on, but I always turn off when not needed. Etc and etc...

Hello all , im having a hard time to find some acro s users who are willing to run one test to confirm that my phone isnt malfunctioning.

Im also waiting for 4.1.2 so im not going too much off topic.

Anyway this particular test crashes on my acro s, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.into.stability&hl=en

second from above, it says cpu + gpu. Crash is manifesting in that that time freezes and when u want to go back it says "app stopped responding" and i have to kill it.

Tried it on S2 and some alcatel it passes more than 10 minutes. On mine crash is in first 5 minutes.

Pls can someone confirm that app is bugged and post it here or in PM?

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ItBankRock:
Right. It's hardware related... I have an acro S too but the 12MP quality wasn't all that impressive(I'm on XZXPERIENCE 2 ROM w/ Cybershot 5.7.2 mod). The phone's cam sensor is too small for 12MP... Heard of Ultrapixel from HTC? 4MP for such a good sensor size... Makes it capture more light and reduce noise.

Sony should use OIS (Optical Image stabilization) in their next smartphones, their Digital Stabilization is horrible I must say.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] boyheadkick:
ultrapixel photos aren't all great as well..remember we're using camera phones with small sensors, not digicams :p

and besides sony is bringing back cyber-shot phones
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] avik735:
I installed Xperia V camera app on my Acro S and the image quality has significantly improved. It's the compression that was faulty. The original Acro S camera app compresses the photos too much and loses a lot of details. Average file size in 12 MP mode is around 1 MB; whereas the Xperia V camera MOD is saving files with average size of around 3.2 MB, and the quality is a lot better as well.

I recently discovered the wonderful backup and restore tools for WP7 and was able to use them to backup my Lumia 900 when I lent it to a friend and successfully restore it when I got it back, perfect!

My main phone now, however, is a WP8 8X and it's having some troubles. HTC have helpfully suggested I reset the phone to factory settings..

I obviously don't really want to do that just yet as I don't want to lose four months of app data and game saves etc.

Is a full backup and restore in the works for WP8? Or does it backup the game and app date properly with the regular SkyDrive backup?

I'm thinking things like my Cut the Rope game saves and the various custom news lists I've set up in Weave, will I lose them?

Thanks for any help you can offer!
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DavidinCT:
Microsoft built in a app for backup but, it seems to backup everything BESIDES app settings (my accounts where there but, just had to put in passwords), Not sure why Microsoft did that but, it works... It will restore accounts and mark all your apps that you own(from the last backup) to start installling.

I am still upset about the backup not restoring my games (yea, I had all the achievments on Cut the rope and was almost at the end, no way I will go through every level again) with plenty of other games....grrr... Not sure why they did tha...

Otherwise there is NO 3rd party app that does backup. In a nut shell, there is no current way to backup your save games on Windows Phone 8.

I had a HTC 8x that just went off and never turned back on, so I had to test this...and still are upset a month later...
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corktrek:
Thanks for the info (and apologies for the really late reply!), such a shame as it's looking like I might have to switch phones and while a lot of stuff can be brought back or re-set up I'll lose the game data and I've since found out that what is backed up can only be restored during the set-up of the phone before WiFi is connected.

Absolute madness!
