[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] entermetallica:
Yes, I've done everything stated in that thread. I wiped/ formatted everything via the recovery, it said failed. Then I rebooted and am stuck at the Sony logo.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Ben36:
Right.... But on the phone memory you have the rom already downloaded yea?

If so... Go to post #4 of this thread. Download the opensemc kernel in the link. Fastboot it. Then boot your phone into recovery and flash the rom
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] entermetallica:
I'll check and get back to you.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Ben36:
Let us know
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Use search button.

It was on page 178, just a few pages back.

In almost all themed versions we have Sony Sketch fonts.

Just folow link to thread I gave you and choose another fonts (if you want to change them).

You can choose would you flash fonts via cwm or download batch file and install fonts via usb cable.

This thread is great because when you replacing fonts with font installer, sometimes, app can't change all fonts, but if you flash it this way, it will replace all your fonts.

I need to catch up but did U said you have SL or XS.

Search xda and watch which kernel you will download and flash.

If you have xs, download PAC, extract boot.img and flash it via fastboot code : fastboot flash boot boot.img

Restart, wipe all and flash PAC.

If you get some errors, let us know.

In a meanwhile Ben solved this. :thumbup:

But it's always goid, if you can't flash ROM, extract boot.img (or download it from Ben's post (#4 on first page), flash it, wipe all then flash kernel.

If you have unlocked bootloader it must work.

Good good! Check you have fiops scheduler in performance control. If not you need to flash the beta2 kernel for great battery life and set it to interactive and fiops
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] elation:
What's the reason behind not integrating the beta kernel into the Rom at this stage? Seems like it clears up a few issues and gives better usability, why not put it in to the main Rom?

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] shingers5:
Well have you changed the kernel? Have installed any other themes or made system ui changes in paprefs? Have you oc the rom or undervolted? So many thing you could have done to cause such issues....... we are not one to

know. As Ben said use update procedure and reinstall as all your apps on data partition will remain just system apps etc get reinstalled

great advice as usual mate. People need to remember that you cannot flash PAC or any aosp/ cm10 ROMs from custom stock kernels. You need to fasboot the boot.img from PAC first then press and hold vol up at purple led till recovery pops up

Man clearly you don't read so I forgive you. If you did you'd never post such nonsense. See my changelog on OP clearly stating what you mentioned
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] AnrgKrshn:
Yeah, I enabled PA Colors, but that's it. No themes, nothing. I was using a live WP, but I've removed that too. Drain still seems to be pretty significant. Using the included Beta2 kernel. I'm updating it now and I'll let you guys know. Thanks for taking the time to develop this amazing rom, and for helping me out with my problem. Really appreciate it, Shingers :D

Oh and once I update it, should I recalibrate the battery?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] asdfgj69g:
I used that apk on the Pure version I had before I upgraded yesterday to the latest Pure version. Yesterday I saw the Opensemc apk was already installed ino the latest version, but also the screen went black when I did slide the brightness a bit too far. So I am a bit confused; does it require the ambient light setting in that app to work? Or are there more shades of black (and what I saw wasn't the bug)? :rolleyes:

Never mind, if I am the only confused one, than there isn't a problem :p

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
You mixed up things.

OpenSEMC kernel is one thing and opensemc.apk is something diferent.

It's app (program) you install like any other app and with it you disable zero brightness issue.

You can also activate some other things.

openSEMC kernel is kernel ;)

Reboot into Recovery, flash it (same way as u did the rom. Just select it and flash)

Wipe cache and dalvik and reboot
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
If you falshed PAC 22.02 then go to settings, scroll down and you'll see performance control, open it and set what Ben told you.

Download battery calibration from market and calibrate battery.

And you have to wait for a few days to ROM settle down, then you'll see battery life.

Of course you battery drain quickly today, you are using phone whole day.

Aah wrong xperia launcher. need to change that but don't remember to which one. I'm not able to look that up for you right now. Can't remember either if that one was included too?!

You'll have to browse through xda threads, there are so many mods and mainly you can find does it works in cm10 or cm 10.1 in theri OP.

I tried old Fx and FHiFi they are very good.

Installation is very simple, install busybox from market and mod like any other app.

Set your tipe of CPU and you are ready to go. ;)

Well...that's the difference, it's basically same ROM with some add-ons.

It's themed by Sony's app and amnix theme.

On PAC 19.x.x I used power sawer from ICS, it worked o.k.

Only, I have to enable it manually, all other worked.

It's a great thing to preserve batrery over the night.

Salu,

i m using 22.02 themed v2 and i love it, just one suggestion and one problem i will evaluate today. First i think it could be helpful to have a short hint at the FAQ about which governor\io scheduler is the best (i think funky? uses sekurativ plus fiops?!) - and the Problem i had: when using Retune (Remoteapp for itunes) it worked some days and all of a sudden PAC turned off and i couldn't reboot - but it was possible to recovery with twrp - i had this two times a day, both time when using Retune - and since then i didn't tried, but today i think ill backup and try again if the prob persists.

So…mayb somebody knows about similar probs or had this too…

greez
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Just leave it on stock.

Rayman still works on it, and, as you can see in the name, it's still in BETA stage - so problems and issues are still there.

Kernel is really good and dev (and guys here) choose this kernel to be PAC kernel too.

You'll be more than fine with stock settings.(performance control settings)

You need Xperia z launcher from v22.0.2 themed as that is a full launcher not a port. It comes with icon set from Xperia t. Also themed version includes libs which the Sony apps need to work

3rd party apps can cause all kinds of random weird behaviour. You acknowledge retune being an issue so why keep using it. Also we have said many times now that interactive or on-demand and fiops is best combo. Sucrative is moody for now

Thanks for letting us know you've sorted it. Don't see how removing 20 apps helped as lag has nothing to do with how many apps installed. Data partition is used to install Alps from market. Drain on resources causes lags and 3rd party app conflicts
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] asdfgj69g:
I am experiencing nothing of the sort. This ROM is really smooth now (Pure I am using now). You seem to be the only one with those kind of troubles.

You have it with Pure, wiped and formatted everything as prescribed and have no other apps than came with this ROM? Then it must be faulty hardware. But, more likely, is an app or combination of apps that are misbehaving. Or you didn't wipe & formatted right (however, that isn't hard to get right, so probably you did that right.

In your shoes, I would do the installation once again, exactly by the book. One more chance on happiness! :D

Launcher is important too, I'm using Atom launcher and I have "slow" phone.

But as I really like that launcher I don't mind that, just want to tell - try to change launcher (if you are using something else - that could be reason too).

And for that 20 app, like Shinger said, uninstalling can't help BUT, I'll add, if you have some app (facebook, weather widget...) that takes 20-30Mb RAM- that could be a reason to lag, but number of apps doesn't have anything with lag.

a little issue here and there but still loving this ROM :D

Hi guys. :D been using the v22.0.2 just found out how to make screen entirely black xD used it to troll friends. Just scroll the notification bar to the most left and once you think its dark and can barely see...move ur finget to the left end.

Anyway I'm here to say I have issue on Atom Launcher :( It is alot better now. But a few days ago the wallpaper will suddenly turn into p.a.c wallpaper which is weird and is very out of place. But recently is not occuring anymore. :) hopefully never

And thest past 2-3 days? I change from sakuractiv/fiops to interactive and row. Whenver my phone goes to 14% it will suddenly turn to 1% and I had to avoid using it due or it will power off and die. :P

Not sure of it has anything to do with my performance control but will try to change to intelidemand :) used to b getting the best life/performance from it..

Other than all those ... this rom has been great :D and I love using it.

Just select "none" in trigger area and that's it - like you did.

I disable PIE like that and it's o.k.

PAC has tones of option (if you don't understand "developer options"don't change nothing in it), you can set almost everything like you want or need. (colors, dpi, dual screen, lock screen, tiles, toggles....)

You can't "break it"...

Read this thread and if something is told not to do , don't do it,
