I would suggest you to be on 6.2.B.1.96 rooted stock before flashing this rom. Or else you'll have to flash the baseband and kernel from .96 separately later.

Try placing ChromeBookmarkSyncAdapter.apk in /system/app. Then set permissions on the apk like this -

X X -

X - -

X - -

Then reboot and try if it works

Oops.. Didn't notice the alarm clock problem. I didn't get you on the recent apps problem. The recent apps doesn't open in the lock screen for me.

You can flash it on locked boot loader but you need cwm. Without cwm you can't flash any custom rom.

Hi,

I'm pretty sure that the alarm clock works fine. I've been using it since two months now and it always rings on time. Could you please re-check the alarm volume in settings-->sound--->volume and also make sure that the ringing tone is not selected as "None"? If nothing seems to work, kindly try re-flashing the rom. I'm sure that it will work:)

I flashed this according to the instruction and upon boot I find my phone doesn't have settings, the phone app (when I get a phone call it just rings and nothing shows up). Now I can't get into recovery to restore my nandroid, I can't install a recovery as I can't enable USB debugging since I can't access phone settings, my phone is pretty much useless now. I can't even access the Play Store, there is no status bar...

Please help.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nisu4717:
Reinstall the rom by fastboot mod.or flash boot.img with the help of flashtool.than go to recovery and install.

Do a clean install
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zgomot:
Since my phone has a LB (allowed=NO) what you suggest is impossible.

Flashtool doesn't even work... it says I need to install drivers, which I have... I do have root access, and busybox installed, anyway that can be useful?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nisu4717:
U can't install any custom rom on locked boot loder.flash stock ftf.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zgomot:
But I flashed the LB version in the OP.

And flashing stock.tft is the first thing I tried, but how can I when I can't even tick USB debugging to let Flashtool connect to the phone.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nisu4717:
Switch of the phone(power + volume up)

Then connect in flash mode.

And ya first install adb and other drivers
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zgomot:
I'll try.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nisu4717:
Try emma or repair.this 2 are another tool to flash.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zgomot:
Yeah, but since there is no settings app and since I can't enable USB debugging, isn't any flashing software useless?

Hi.

At the moment, the Xperia Nexus is the best rom i have tried (and i have tried a lot). No problems with Titanium backup, speed, good battery... I use Rayman kernel.

Only I have 2 bugs:

-Handcent SMS doesn't work. When i try to open it, it closes automatically.

-When y'm using (bluetooth) headsets, i can't up the volume at full... it stops about 60% and don't up more... =(

-not more for now.

Gratz for yout rom ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
Don't know about Handcent SMS but another user has also said that music volume doesn't go beyond half the volume. Will check out this bug.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
All those who have the volume problem, please download the attached apk and place it in /system/app. Set permissions like this-

XX-

X--

Then reboot!

Please let me know if it works. :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ruvelro:
Nop, it doesn't work...

About Handcent SMS i'm using noy Go SMS Pro without problem, so it's very stange :S
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
I don't experience this problem at all so I have no idea why this is happening. Would this happen with you even on stock .55 ics or is it only on this rom?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ruvelro:
Handcents works without problem in other roms and in .55 original... I dont know whats happening...

The volume apk you uploaded doesn't work, i cant rise volumen over 60%... :S
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
Okay. Please go to settings--->sound--->volume and tell me if you can increase media volume ( the first volume bar ) above 60%.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
Maybe got an idea why Handcent isn't working. Postviewer.apk and some other apks are not included in the rom. I never chat and use social apps so I considered it to be bloatware. To fix all these missing apks, I will mostly use Aroma installer in V2. That way each user will get to chose what all apks he/she needs.:)

Hi.

I can't increase the volume with headsets connected.

I can put the bar at 100% but the volume don't up over 60%...

In stock rom appears a message that sais if you raise the volume you can damage your ears or something... and you must click ok on this message for increase the volume... it looks like that it should show the message, but it don't appears...

Development

Hi there @abcdjdj!

I installed your ROM 2 days ago and am loving it so far,

I would love to contribute to the development of this ROM...if you get your phone working again ;)

I am just about to upload a screenshot to your other thread with the eMMC bug checker on my xperia S.

Personally I don't like the font, but I would love to have to option to choose between that and the standard (if that's possible).

I have 2 fixes I would love to see implemented either now or in v2:

1.

When I pull down the notification bar, my screen moves up about 5mm.

So, if im on the homescreen and I pull down the notification bar, all my apps jump up 5 millimeters

Or, if im in an app and pull down the notification bar, the screen will jump up about 5mm.

This movement really kills the whole smoothness of your ROM.

2.

I see you have chrome installed as default browser.

I LOVE chrome, who doesn't? But I can't update the version you install with the ROM.

If I go into play store, I have to download a standalone version of chrome, which I don't want as I don't want 2 browsers running in the background plus I find it messy to have 2.

I don't know much about developing ROMS so I dont know if you can make it possible to update the one you include but I would really love it if you could because I like to keep my apps up to date.

P.s I have confirmed that there is a volume with headphones bug and I will flash your fix now and check if it works.

Thanks for reading!

- Budleighs

---------- Post added at 08:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:06 AM ----------

Just installed the volume fix with CWM, wiped cache and then wiped delvik cache.

I can now tell you that the fix works perfect.

Went into walkman, had headphones in, volume went to 60% (or whatever) and the warning message popped up about hearing, pressed okay and it let me go to full volume.

Thanks for the fix.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
Thanks for the feedback. For the status bar problem, just pull down your status bar, and press the menu button. Then go to SystemUIPreferences and search for an option - Fullscreen mode. Uncheck that option and then you will get a popup. Just press yes and allow superuser access. Enjoy! Btw, there is no chrome included in the rom. It is just the stock browser with chrome's icon..:laugh:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] budleighs:
Well, thanks for making me look like an idiot ;)

Thank you! You have fixed my problem haha,

Im tired and going to bed but I have a suggestion or two for v2 if you are still developing
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ruvelro:
Hi again!

I have notice 2 more little bugs:

-Turn On/Off Data Connection from the notification bat, sometimes it doesn't work. I press the icon and nothing happens.

-Some widgets works bad, it looks bad or ir looks good and after some time part of them dissapears :S It happened me with Audio Manager and Bluetooth Widget.

The rest is GREAT !!! Thanks, i love mi Xperia S again ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
I know about the Data Connection bug, but the button actually works. Do one thing, please go to settings and enable data connection from there. Then use the button to disable it. Even though the button seems to not be working, you will find a notification in your status bar - "Data traffic disabled".

The widgets disappearing is a problem with Nova launcher. I am looking for a suitable replacement for it.:)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] grgana:
@abcdjdj, looks like your rom isnt so unpopular among XS users :), numbers of pages are growing,and people are talking about it, so you have every reason for v.2 and more...keep good work, i hope taht you will hear good news from sony sevice about your phone, fingers crossed!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
Bad news from Sony - they say that I will require a motherboard replacement (so I am assuming that this is a hard-brick) which will cost me approx 222$ (12000 inr). I am getting it changed but before I start developing any ICS based rom/mod, I will first check the kernel source for any kind of bug which is causing these bricks. If my XS gets bricked again (on its own) then I don't think that I will ever get another Xperia phone.:crying:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mondenath:
I was wondering why the ram is 634 mb stuck in all stock based roms while aosp , miui and cm9x all have 716 is int unchangable as even Xperia P have 800mb from stock rom.

I dont understand why sony market it as 1gb ram.

I know os loads and apps loads but not always and keeping it resevered will render useless when its is really not required to reserve 335 mb ram as reserved.

I dont like that alone may be in future models it will be rectified.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
Don't worry about the free ram. Free ram is ram wasted. Memory is reserved for various phone functions. Read this for more info - http://www.androidcentral.com/ram-what-it-how-its-used-and-why-you-shouldnt-care

As long as the phone is smooth, nothing really matters. Benchmarks also have no real value. They don't measure real life performance.;)

Is this ROM already supercharged and have Project Butter ?

This ROM got my attetion, a friend of mine have a Xperia S asked me to install better ROM i can find.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
Project fluid by mv_style (now Spex) is for all devices. No I have not supercharged the rom. Project Butter is nearly impossible to implement on ICS devices as it requires major changes to be made in the kernel. As per the rules of XDA, there is no such thing as the best rom so you will have to try the rom and read the reviews if you want to know more.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
Well yeah it is easier for me. As I have not programmed TWRP or CWM, I have no idea what is the difference in the two. As for the CWM problem, just flash advanced stock ICS kernel. Arakmar has fixed the CWM bugs in the kernel. It formats properly without giving any error.

Well build 17 has an updated version of recovery. Just check the OP for the changelog. Just copy the ROM on the internal storage and then flash the kernel. I have experienced no problems in cwm so far.
