I can't see why you then still trying?

You have XS that doesn't support cm based ROMs :p

I think only solution is to flash official ICS, if that won't work too, try to flash GingerBread - that must work.

no too serious as we know what to expect by now........its just bad hearing someone say stuff like that because he/she isnt getting what they expect from the rom. its so easy to blame the rom for every thing that goes wrong but state facts not conjecture and speculation! i am gonna chill now and play some fifa 13 :good:

Fifa14 will look awesome, just saw some screenshots today ;)

It's o.k if he's not satisfied with ROM, but one post with problem, someone answer and that's it.

Just like if someone like it, you'll not write 15 posts just to say something is o.k. over and over again.

It's absolutely o.k, you don't like it, cool, but you ruining our fun :D

That's so annoying...

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] shingers5:
No one ruins my fun. My motto is if its not for you then move on. Many other ROMs here to try. To stay and try be so negative with false claims is annoying. However I remain happy that for us who use the ROM daily its usable :D

I'm currently on battlefield 3. Didn't like the latest future based cod. Battlefield is just immensely better!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Jmjguru:
Its not ego, its experience.

And just a little word of advice. When you report something, be it a bug or strange behaviour of the rom. Be polite. I bet you would be treated in the same way back.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kajozord:
Ok I read again what I wrote. In my post Ive lost two important words. I wrote that ROM is unusable, should by "is unusable for me".
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Ben36:
I don't get why tho. No one else has had the issues that you have and there are a lot of users of this rom
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
As I said, only you can do is try to wipe all and flash again.

But, if I remember, you said, you have problems with every cm based ROM.

So you should look for some different solution(s).

Try do flash boot.img with fastboot (extract it from ROM with explorer) and then flash ROM.

Or try to download using some other browser.

Try to use ROM for a day or two without gapps and with only app that is crucial for you (don't install games, benchmark app, battery saver, themes or other lauchers) try stock.

Especially don't restore data wirh titanium or other app.

Then if everything went o.k, add app one by one and you'll find what was the reason in the past.

I think there is some differences between Xperias S, these produces in first half of 2012 and produced later. The same was with nfc, some users experienced not working NFC in all CM ROMs, some users not. Updated nfc blob solved this problem. I have XPeria produced in 11.2012. Ive done clean install (like in instruction in 1st post, nothing restored via TA, or flashed apps via recovery), I changed few thing like battery icon, clock position, resets layout dpi to default in gmail, gtalk, etc.

PS. I`ve not noticed zero brightness bug.

-6th of all i actually have this rom on my phone and i do not have any of the issues you mention

- 7th of all i have not seen any one else report this problem thats including the loyal user of this rom and my testers ben36, jmjguru, funky0308 and xmixmaster. how can they all be wrong and you the only one not!

8th and finally why not just say thanks and leave gracefully. hopefully you will another rom suiting of your needs.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Have you even look at that post I wrote to you?

I wrote halft of a page and you answered this?!

We reality trying to help, mate, but it's impossible like this.

Try something and report, if you even still want PAC.

I wrote three or four things you could do and you only saw line "if I remember, you can't install not even one cm based ROM.

I'm sure something will help, just look few pages back, half guys from PAC thread is trying to help, except Shinger, Shinger is too egoistic :P hahaha....

I agree, not every phone could be same but I really doubt it can be that different, we talking about ROM here, software...

Try that, what I wrote, flash boot.img via fastboot, restart and flash rom.

First wipe all, of course, but all - cache, davlink, system, factory reset.

And I'll work.

And I would suggest, if yoor problems continue, format sdcard, then flash from the beginning, I wouldn't be surprised if some junk left from other ROM's and/or app and they causing problems.

In case anyone is interested and missed it in OpenSEMC's thread: I am close to doing the first release of my

APP - OpenSEMC.

It allows you to convert your filesystems on /system, /data and /cache.

Furthermore, it allows for mounting these three filesystems RW/RO, modifying your ALS curve (brighter screen) and force enable a navigation bar.

As of now, FS conversion and navbar force options are non-functional, but I'd like you to test it for it's current functions and report back :)

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Themed version is quieter then pure.

Obviously walkman and his sound filters and enhancements causing some issues.

I can't see any difference, but as lot of guys confirmed that I belive that's true.

I don't use my phone as a mp3 player and I hardly use youtube so I'm not legitimate to judge :D

I think that's the problem that guy talk about, not theme for theme chooser, he had pure and then flash themed (as he said theme mod) and realized that themed has lower sound then pure.

Right?

Re: [05/03/13][Official][4.2.2] P.A.C v20.1.0 Pure + Themed

That's very inaccurate as in standby this rom lasts more than a day. 3 days on stock? Don't believe that for one bit. Flash the rom as explained and do your battery stats. Use it for a least 2 charge cycles before start reporting battery consumption. All roms even stock needs a few charge cycles to settle down. In future start your post with ' in my opinion' as not everyone has the same feeling as you
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] eumel79:
I flashed the v20.1 the second time at 5pm then install all apps and do the configuration, but all with connected charger.

6pm i disconnect from the charger and all i do up to 10pm ist writing 3 whatsapp messages and check the time 3-4 times.

On the next Day at 6am the batterystatus is at 38%.

And yes i do a full wipe etc. as it is described in the first post.

No i dont wipe the battery stats, i can't find that option in the included cwm.

I have to install another cwm version or twrp before i can wipe the battery stats?

Sorry, the last time i flashed a rom was a year ago and the many threads in this forum are confusing, especially the topicality of many threads, many things changes :D

It's true, i got 3 days with low use only a few messages and use of the calendar thats all.

Re: [05/03/13][Official][4.2.2] P.A.C v20.1.0 Pure + Themed

As you can see, nobody reports battery life - it's too early for that.

As Shinger said, you have to wait until few cycles passes and then we could talk about battery life.

Go to Market and download battery calibration, connect your charger and when it charge to 100% hit battery calibration then unplug charger and restart.

This app will delete battery stats. files and phone will create new one.

That's very important because old ROM could leave wrong battery stats. and you could have that kind of problem (you described).

Found an interesting glitch (nothing major).

Sacuractive puts me into the known boot loop, but interactive and fiops work gr8 so I'm happy using that, however, to stop IO reverting back to row after boot I turned 'set on boot' to on.

Thing is, after booting the governor changes my settings to sacuractive/fiops, thereby causing the loop!

This isn't a problem for me, I just leave 'set on boot' off.

Not complaining, just letting you know incase it happens to someone else ;)

Notifications sounds and in call vol are o.k.

Problem is only when you play mp3 in walkman.

Now you talking nonsense, notification sound is clear and loud, just choose good quality mp3 or try to use "old phone ringtone" and you'll see that not.sounds are o.k.

In call vol is o.k too, as I said problem is in walkman and xlaud.

It would be great if we could keep walkman without xloud, I like walkman and social network integration.

But if majority wants that out, I'm o.k.,with it ;)

Hey guys, I don't know why, but since a couple of days ago, my phone's been going crazy. Whatsapp kept crashing, the message history would keep getting corrupt.

But today, my battery's been draining a lot and it's been getting heated up a lot too. I rebooted, but it's still draining pretty fast. I'm thinking maybe I'll recalibrate my battery, but is there anything else I can do that might solve the issue?
