That's posible, Vertigo added new version of google market and sometimes it behave strange (only after flashing ROM, it works excellent later).

Download this http://d-h.st/JY1 (play store app) and install it like any other app.

If Market persists in FC, go to recovery, wipe cache and davlink, flash gapps (2013) boot then install this app you downloaded.

If you using on screen buttons I would say you change functions assigned to "back" but this....?!

Your explanation is hard to understand, only I coud advice is wipe all, (ALL) and flash again.

You are the first one with this issue.

[UPDATE][ALL][PORT][APP] Snapdragon Battery Guru

Works for our xs without build.prop edit.

Just extract apk and install it.

Don't know how much juice it will save but, hopefully some. ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
It sounds interesting... ;)

Will it work? We'll see :D

I'll try on ICS first...and when weekend comes PAC will get this to deal with it :D

Tnx for pointing this ;)

Haven't try without editing build.prop.

I always folow instructions, maybe won't work like it should without that lines in build...

Just reading one local tech rss and found one interesting thing.

Sony released "optic internet" in Tokio (only for Tokio) which is even faster than Google's fiber in USA.

2 Gbit/s download and 1Gbit/s...

I guess, now it's not problem with internet speed but in the bandwidth of ours network cards - I will not even mention the Wi-Fi ;)

Regardless of all that, it's nice to see that fantastic speeds..

Especially when I look my speed. :cool:

Boot into TWRP recovery from power off?

How do you boot into recovery from power off?

Here's what happened... I've been trying this ROM for a day, mostly tweaking because it's laggy and slow for me... Now I turned of the brightness slider from navigation bar...BIG MISTAKE...as I adjusted brightness in menu,it wen't completely black and now I can't use the damn phone..!!! :mad:

Only way to get it to work is to get into recovery and flash a backup...

Force restart your mobile by pressing power and volume for some time.

When your phone is restarting press your volume up button until you sees blue led
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] wernerzero:
Thanks!

Don't know if I just found a serious bug, but that was not fun at all...

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zaidx:
happened to me yesterday

i solved it with some smart and some luck:o

i pressed the home button to make sure i'm in the homescreen

(slowly) pulled the notification bar and i pressed on the brightness button (i know where it was)

and put my finger in the middle of the screen and BOOOOM it worked !!! haha

try it couple of times until it success

for me i did it from the first time:laugh:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] shingers5:
Weird i dont have that so cant offer any advice.

Already advised to use interactive or on demand and fiops. I use on demand and fiops and have no issues

First of all I don't like the tone in your first post so I ignored it. You have not found a serious bug as if you read the thread you'd see that this has been mentioned and a workaround was posted about this. Also if you read you'd know to go in recovery from power button is to press and hold vol up at purple led till recovery pops up. So in future check before posting angry faces etc. Read first then ask politely. Furthermore this ROM is anything but laggy as I use it myself!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Jmjguru:
No that is a known bug, a fix was posted some pages back. Or you could use a flashlight or equal and you would see the screen as its not completely black.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zaidx:
hi

is it just me or the brightness of the screen is low ? and the sound too?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] shingers5:
There are 2 ROMs so which one are you talking about? Pure or themed? I have no volume issues on any of the v22.0.2 ROMs
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Same story again...

Read few pages back and you'll find all your answers.

Or just use search button.

These questions were answered 15 million times.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] wernerzero:
...my tone..?

You don't call it a serious bug when your screen goes completely black?

I have read almost every post of the 1600, but must have missed or did not remember the post about this issue. Search did not come up with any answers.

I tried the vol up at purple led SIX times...did not work...the seventh time it did..!?

When something like this happens and you panic...I wonder how many of you can leave out the angry faces..?

But I DO APOLOGIZE for not asking politely, I usually do...but again, in a panic you sometimes forget...

You should also know that ROMs behave differently on different phones...I did not accuse the ROM itself to be bad...it's an Android thing.

Also the XZX-ROM is laggy on my phone, tho others say it's not. That's why I'm trying different ROMs and tweaks. Stock-ROM with Elite-kernel is the smoothest and fastest for me...but it's ugly and I like the extras in the custom ROMs.

I'm installing this ROM from scratch now, just to be sure...I always give the ROMs a few days or so before I decide whether it's any good for me or not.

But big thanks to all who answered anyway.

W.Z.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] shingers5:
so much better now that you have clarified things............... i never panic as with android there is always a way to revert things done! also remember it was your choice to reduce the brightness to that level hence the blank screen, well at least you are now trying the rom again so hopefully you know what to be mindful of. there is a post to fix that brightness issue and that purple led option works 1st time for me everytime. you see the open semc bootsplash then soon as purple led lights up just press and keep holding vol up. recovery always pops up for me without fail! after flashing change launcher to nova or apex so can customise as you wish. funky like bazooka though :p in performance control i use on demand and fiops and that for me is lightning...............looking fwd to your feedback good or bad!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] matthewsucks:
Hi there buddy! Is it right if i flash the rom before flashing the g apps or vice versa?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
How can you flash gapps ih you don't have system?

It's same as you trying to install MS office but you don't have Windows.

Maybe I didn't understand you...

Anyway...first flash ROM, then reboot, then restart to recovery , wipe cache and davlink and flash gapps.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] shingers5:

do as he says mate just flash rom in recovery ensure to wipe fully including formatting system and then reboot. let things settle the return to recovery and flash gapps!

Yeah, I guess, that's what he meant. I can't use the pie from the bottom, its very hit and miss for me :P Also, the hardware buttons get in the way. But it's very convenient from the side. I used to use LMT on Opensemc and came back to PAC after a long time.. Loving the rom, and the battery life is ridiculous! :D Never managed to get 17 to 18 hours, but now it's just normal :D Does anyone have this? When I open the play store, and hit search, it just closes the play store. I have to keep opening the Play Store a couple of times before I can search... Not a big issue, as I'm using Aptoide as a replacement, but yeah, just a heads up...

By the way, i have to thank you very much for your great rom. There are so many features included.

I have a little issue. When i plugged in the charger while the phone is turned off and switch it later on, the phone doesn´t go in deep sleep and gets no data connection.

But the workaround is quite easy.

If you want black screen I can show you how to do that. :confused:

---------- Post added at 08:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:20 AM ----------

How you guys even bump to that combinations?

O.K. this is relatively normal question :P but people manage to find combinations that average user never find :D

I really don't know for this, lit-ion battery don't like that (discharging to 0%) so I hardy let my battery drain that much.

When you reach 15-25% plug your phone to charger, you'll save your battery life (those battery have limited charging cycles) and you'll avoid problem you mention.

Vertigo is working on some improvements and fixes, but they will be available in next release - we won't get patch file or fix.

And BTW, that's the polite way to say what ever you want.

It's cool to say something doesn't work, but if you polite it's even better.

Whole crew was working on improving PAC yesterday (till 1am).

And at least we could do is - is play fair.

Write what's bothering you, what would you like to see in next relese, that's o.k. :D

And, yes, many thing will be better when Sony JB ;)

---------- Post added at 08:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:33 AM ----------

...first impressions...

Okay, I have now got almost everything setup as I want it, just some small tweaks here and there needed still.

I must say, this ROM is really good. Takes some time to get used to and to understand what all the setups and tweaks do.

15h 57m and still 68% left on battery, tho I haven't used it that much, just some email,sms,photoediting and small tweaks. I'm still letting it settle after hours of installing and tweaking yesterday..

Looks really good, especially with an all-black-theme... :cool:

It's smooth and fast enough for me. Funny, but it is/feels much smoother and faster after I installed it a second time (due to the brightness-black-out).

The camera is better than I thought and that was mainly what has kept from trying this earlier.

No reboots yet!!! That's excellent, and the first ROM to achieve that... :) (...knock on wood...)

No problems with any connections or volume.

And the much talked about screen brightness black-out... :p For me it happened so instantly, I tapped it once and it went black, that I at first thought it powered off. Now that I know about the issue it isn't a problem anymore. I use the Brightness Level app/widget anyway so...

An other stranger issue I have in this ROM is that it gets really slow and laggy when charging... :confused:

It might get better as it settles..? (And of course the usual Android-lag-when-updating-from-PlayStore)

Some apps needs several "openings" before starting, especially PlayStore and WidgetLocker... No big deal tho.

The screen/ digitizer seems less responsive than usual. E.g. when moving icons on the homescreen, sometimes hard to get the icon to go into "move-state".

Some of the issues might be solved with kernel-tweaks..? Now trying badass/sio.

All in all, this looks like a winner. :victory:

A big thank you to the developer. :highfive:

W.Z.

ps. And you should all remember that our phones are almost individuals...because they are Androids...what is perfect on your phone might be bad on another...

You are definitely doing something wrong so whatever it is stop doing it and follow instructions. It can't just be unusable for you only. Guess its time you moved on as pac isn't for you.

How can it work for everyone else apart from you? Explain that. Clean install isn't just wipe data but all caches and system too. Clearly you are doing something wrong
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MadCobbler:
Before you start attacking the rom, have you ever considered you could've have got a bad download, on either the rom or gapps? My suggestion would be download both again and check the md5's to make sure they're ok.

Also do you think if it was a major bug and made the rom unusable that everyone would be having the same issue... It looks to me like it is an error on your side my friend, something you have either done or not done, or like I mentioned before bad downloads.
