Yes, Rom is good, but not perfect for me. With active performance Control (192/1512) i had now two reboots.

And charging is verry slow. Akku charge now 8 hours, is a little bit hot and is now only arrived at 68%. :confused:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] witti96:
I don't think that your battery problem is a problem of pac. Maybe you can try to use another charger?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] heross:
I think is not a chargerproblem. it must have to do with offline charging. Now i have device reboot without charger and then plugged in. and now it loads normal.

Yesterday the machine was empty and i actually wanted to load it offline. However, it was booted this morning, a bit warmer than normal and only at 68%. Is there a problem with offline charging known? see attachment.

PS: thing I also noticed.

-autobrightness is significantly darker than in PAC 23 THEMED WALKMAN powered by 3.4 kernel

-PAC 23 THEMED WALKMAN powered by 3.4 kernel drains the akku only with 180mA. NEW PAC 23 PURE need at same situation 300-400mA. (idle, WiFi on, Screen on)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Jmjguru:
This is due to no modification on the hw_config.sh file. Change these values 1,51,255,39,20,6,84 to

1,255,255,255,255,255,255

And your screen will light up after executing the script..

Hi, I flashed PAC V23 pure with 3.4 kernel, the last one, and I have battery problems, drain to fast, what can I do? change kernel? some values? I like it a lot and everythings is fine but the battery problem is driving me crazy. Thanks...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anightfire:
fastbooting the kernel fixed the issue for me
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] K3n H1mur4:
Definitely latest v23 w/ 3.4 kernel has memory issues. Chrome closes all the time (ridiculously, had a single tab opened and the only other app opened was whatsapp), Instagram too, it seriously needs to be checked and, if possible, corrected. There's no use in 1 GB of RAM if one can't have two apps running at the same time without the system crashing.

Test with Kernel from Themed Version. I found accudrain decreases by half.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] logicaldeveloper@live.com:
With latest fixed version..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dreezz:
i'm having a very, very slow phone at the moment.

for instance in whatsapp keyboard is very slowly responding.

after reboot problem starts after a few actions.

switched kernels, but problem remains.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] John Strijke:
I see a lot of problems with latest 4.3 version in this forum.

I don't encounter these problems. Batery life is execellent. Today I did a 4,5 hour biclycle tour with Strava ans GPS turned on. After 4,5 still 70% baterry, that's great.

I have no random boots or memory problems.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] heross:
I can now confirm the good battery life. I have installed the potato755 kernel :) with fastboot, clear Cache and Dalvik and twice drain accu to 0% and then full charge. Now is O.K. , with 3G, Wifi and GPS on, Screen at 30% it use 190mA. :good: not fully perfect is the Flightmode with 12mA, here we must come to 2-4mA as Stock, but is o.k. for new Rom and Kernel. any 3.0 kernel for CM10.1 drains more in flightmode.

Not so good is offline charging. after a while the device will boot automatically and loads more online. :confused: so i can`t charge to 100% offline.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Jmjguru:
Same here, no reboots, no crashes and no sluggish behaviour what so ever.. Ppl with those problems should check the build date. It should be Aug 20 13:47:29 2013!! I have a hard time believing you're running the latest build!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dreezz:
i was definitely on the last version+kernel. never had these problems (extremely slow keyboard) before.

tried potatoe kernel, no improvement.

(am now checking out beanstalk rom, but will problably return to pac on next release)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] stavca:
CHECK these options in Developers section in Settings: (don't know exact names, but you'll find them)

- Disable HW layers

- Force GPU for 2D

this helped me, but the first option is resetting its state after reboot so I have to check it again after rebooting...so I can ask maybe if there is possibility to set it after boot with some script or so on?? :)

Tired downloading from link getting Aug 18 with same timing.

My phone is Rebooting every 1-2hrs.please helpppppp
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] stavca:
I have a few other points from using this ROM:

- when playing "heavy" 3D games, phone is not so warm as it was with FXP and NOVA kernel (I had CPU OCed, but even with stock freq, phone was warmer with the same governor)

- to be able to play "heavy" 3D games it requires to allow some options in Developes section in Settings, but some of them are resetting their state after reboot so it has to be set again after each reboot

- I have a feeling that "edges" (especially the bottom one) of the display are less responsive than the rest of the display, could it be because of PIE controls??

- random reboot occurs once a time, about 3 times per week maybe

- Real Racing 3 can't run sometimes, it's loading and then it closes and can't be run till reboot

- Chrome is very unresponsive and slow even with only 2 tabs opened

- how about USB OTG?? I can use mouse but I can't mount flash discs :(

- anyway the speed and smoothness of this ROM is very good

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] perroncho2:
After a few charges and discharges the problem persist, baterry drain fast, and sometimes i got reboots, taking photos, on internet with the browser that cane with the rom.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RichyRicho:
Hi all. The new ROM is 10x more stable :) No random reboots so far :)

The only issue im still having is that the flash light goes off when the screen goes off. Anyone have a fix for this? or know how to fix it...I cant find any info on how to fix it.

And as i saw a few posts up...an fm radio :) But im getting my new car,WITH a Radio, so I wont really need that anyway lol :)

Great work guys :)

As for battery...im not 100% sure...but after a day of whatsapp, a lil internet and some GPS usage, it doesnt seem that bad...seems normal to me :)

The camera is also awesome...focuses much faster and better than ever before
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] stavca:
- run terminal command top and see, if there is something which uses a lot of CPU, it could be for example mediaserver

- install wakelock detector and see what doesn't allow your device to go into deep sleep

Hey guys i've a small question :

I noticed that the status bar of PAC rom is slightly different than the "vanilla" one :

Grey is less dark and there are gapps between signal bars.

I provided screenshots so you can see what i mean (1st pic is PAC, 2nd is vanilla).

Does anybody knows how to get the pure "vanilla" status bar as shows on the 2nd picture ???

Any new info / progress of 4.3 version ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
O.K guys...

Even I swear I won't reply a single post here again I have obligation as OP to explain few things.

Even everything broke after one stupid argue here and even moderator had to intervene (posts were deleted and that's why you probably don't know that) - that's not only reason why we are stopping development.

We just had enough, we never asked for anything else but "tnx" and we decided not to tolerate bad and rude behaviour (and as you all know- we had that every here and then).

Vertigo, Shingers, Jmjguru and I agreed that's it.

And even we were angry, in some moments, while we were reading some comments I have to say it was a great ride with all of you.

Thread will stay opened and we will continue development but just not for XDA.

I must say it was our decision and we all agreed that's the best.

Maybe sometimes look like we don't like someone or someone doesn't like us - but I assure you we are all friends and this is only forum, we all have our lives to live and this is our hoby...

In that last line lays answer why are we stopping with PAC. ;)

But if I know "my" crew I'm sure that when we get working and fully functional 4.3 - you will get it too ;)

But that doesn't depends only on me, of course.

I'm not saying that and expecting you to beg for ROM - I'm writing this because I think you deserve to know...

If you need some help (especially new users) fell free to ask - if I know I will be happy to help :)

See ya all guys.....

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MadCobbler:
Its not just because of 'stupidity' or 'non appreciation'..... its mainly because it had begun to take over my life/our lives and we have all had a good talk and decided that it was time to call it a day as we all have families and kids (yes believe or not we are all old enough... I have children that are older than some Devs on here) and we don't want to miss them growing up by being too busy all the time... we've not stopped completely, just decided to slow it down a lot... don't worry about it though, because PACman is so popular, it won't be long before someone else is doing it and you won't even remember us lol

We will always be here though and we 'MIGHT' make a comeback, but for now we're having a break and bloody enjoying it ;)

Fair enough, its understandable and I, as possibly every one else here, respect your choice. Takin your words into account, I believe that you should do a last fully working version of 4.3 or fully working 4.2 with their drivers and all. Make that, and leave a legend behind you.

HEllo funky

Waiting for an update as i m worried about the speed of my phone,its just too slow,i m not talking about benchmark but on a normal use!

Please give me a tip,i got very less games like about 3 and 4 apps,thats it !!

Phone is not even going into deep sleep for some reason i even calibrated. :confused::confused::confused:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] stavca:
I don't know if it improved speed because I was on FXP builds before and this is the first version of PAC I tried, but I have to say it's amazing!! FXP wasn't bad, but this ROM is way better, it's very smooth, newer version of Android gives you some advantage also and there are so many options!! you can customize your XS and that'll make you happy :D

but back to the performance, I am playing games like Real Racing 3 every day and they are working just fine, no problems at all, but I don't know ANTUTU score, I was curious about it before but who cares about some synthetic values?? I think the real experience it much more important and I say it once again, rom is smooth, games are running very good so there is no need to be worried, give PAC a try and you'll see :)

I use, as my signature says, the latest pure version, so v23 with 3.4 kernel and yes, I am sure, because I play these games every day, I played Real Racing 3, Dead Trigger, Modern Combat 4 and other not so "heavy" games like Osmos HD, Apparatus, Spirit and all of these are running ok, I would say they are running as good as on FXP ROM

the only thing I had to do was in settings, developers section, ENABLING some options:

- disable HW overlays => enable it

- Force GPU rendering for 2D => enabled it

- Force 4xMSAA => enable it, but I think this one is not needed, but it looks better (it should be antialiasing??)

and I have one problem with it, I have to enable disabling of HW overlays after each reboot of the phone, because its state is resetting and I don't know why, but I can live with that :)

Now after some reboots, everything works flawlessly.

Only one thing bother me : it seems I can't install any app from

Install doesn't do anything.
