Im still stuck guys :(

I have put the nav bar from 0 all the way to 100% and very one in between many times, and my nav bar still will not appear.

It was working and then one day it ust stopped :( I am on v22.2.0
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Stupidest:
I know I'm asking a stupid question here, but which kernel should I use for this rom? Could I use the CM10 kernels? Any recommendations? Planning to try PAC and decided to go for it now :p
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anightfire:
It happens if you have pie controls activated.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] cities516:
Use the kernel provided in the zip.

It's the best kernel for the ROM.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dreezz:
on my xperia Ray i always flashed a new kernel via flashtool, went to cwm and installed the custom rom after that...

i did the same with my xperia s, but while flashing pac rom i noticed it flashes the included kernel too,

so... once you have cwm and flash a zipped rom with included kernel, i don't need flahtool anymore?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] cities516:
Well, it is always recommended to flash kernel via fastboot, because it will wipe whole boot partition.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
PAC 22 is Android.4.2.2 while cm10 based.ROM's are 4.1.2 - so NO, don't flash nova or similar kernel on this built.

Kernel is in zip file and it'll be flashed with ROM.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bkk99213:
So, we can't flash the stock kernel for .200?

I like the P.A.C. ROM, but the stock ROM's battery is more friendly.

Is this problem (battery drain) about kernel?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] cities516:
Of course you can't cross-flash kernel made for stock to custom ROMs! Never ever think of that!

For battery problems, try calibrate the battery.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bkk99213:
I calibrate already. but the stock ROM is little better. I know it's not more different..

If P.A.C. have new version , I must come back :p
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Battery is so subjective, everyone use different apps and settings and one phone will hold 24 hours and otger won't last even 12h.

But I agree, on stock JB your battery will hold few hours longer, but that's not same Android and it's not possible to compare two different OS.

Every ROM has benefits and flaws and it's up to you to decide which one is better for you.

Some guys doesn't like stock UI so they use theme manager, others like something else...it's your choice.

All I can say is.: custom ROM's have better support, ask Sony question - and wait for answer ;) (just joking, of course) :P

We will release PAC 22.3 as soon as possible and we'll work on it until PAC becomes perfect...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] shingers5:
you cannot flash aosp or cm based rom using advanced or custom stock kernels are the partitions differ. you need either raymanfx kernel or cm kernel to make it work properly. PAC already has the latest kernel needed so just flash the boo.img via fastboot not flashtool. flashtool is used to flash stock based kernels

in theory a stock based rom should be more battery friendly and work better................however with roms like PAC you get the latest cutting edge tech available right now for your device. this will always have an impact on resources. if you wanna play it safe stay stock but i have got better battery life on PAC than stock at times.

:laugh: stay stock but from experience i know stock battery sucks and at time PAC v19.3 based on 4.1.2 has had better battery than stock so use that one
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nrp31:
Flashed v22.2 on My XS! Did some customization and ended up with a setup like this.The ROM is smooth and works great.The only problem I have is random reboots sometimes :P

Overall,Loving the ROM
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Looking nice ;)

We are working on that issue and we will fix it soon ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dreezz:
why not via flashtool (fastboot mode/select kernel to flash)?

gives the same result as fastboot command shell i guess, and provides more flashing info?

or does fastboot do something else?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Flashtool is Windows app and it's for flashing official firmwares.

Open flashtool and try :P

Fastboot is command line program for flashing kernel, not flastool.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Ben36:
If you want to fastboot a kernel try this -

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=41969456
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
That's great program, but that's not flastool, that's. bat script which will do exactly same thing, write dos command fastboot flash ****** ***.*** and flash. iso or .elf file (I know you know that Ben, I was just quoting your post)

I really can't understand why is, for someone fastboot such a big deal?!

If you have PC with installed drivers, fastboot is 2 min job. :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] codyellow:
moving swiftkey to phone memory (rather than SD) solved the default keyboard problem for me. I think you can also disable all the other ones (rather than uninstalling) in settings>applications, but you'll have to disable google voice too I think.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dreezz:
it's not a big deal, i guess... but why not use flahtool's fastboot mode?

more information about the flashing process, i guess, and also done in less then a minute ;)

time to change my signature btw... on xperia s i think pac is the best rom!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Have you ever flashed kernel via flashtool?

If you succeed, than o.k, I never tried that.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dreezz:
never done it another way.

nice to see that we can learn from each other :good:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Ben36:
I always use a command prompt window to fastboot

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Then I belive you deserve v22.4 ;)

It'll be out tonight - just waiting few more confirmations but fir now plan is to release it tonight ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dreezz:
euh... what happened to 22.3? :silly:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Only minor changes so we skip it ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dreezz:
can't wait! :good:

(tried a few roms the last week, but ended up with pac again and again)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
So boy'z and girl'z we present you new PAC v22.4.0

We decided to skip v22.3.0 and we bring new refreshed Android 4.2.2 ROM.

Enjoy ;)

OP refreshed, new download link (22.4.0 added) , changelogs updated.

Please, say tnx, it really doesn't cost nothing :D

Tnx to Vertigo, Shingers, Jonnie and Gimki - guys you are the best ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Jeremy0:
Nice ! Waiting the themed version.

Thanks again.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] carthage:
waiting too for themed version but do you know if the problem with 3G data lost every time is solved?

For trying i back to official 4.1.2 and they aren't this problem !

thx for ur work !
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dreezz:
downloading... (is slow this time)

coming from 22.2:

need to flash kernel, or is it the same?

can i just flash rom (boot) and gapps without wiping to keep my apps and settings?

or is factory reset/wipe cache/format system/clear dalvik cache necessary?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Try, I belive it'll be o.k.

But maybe it's better to fastboot kernel then wipe only cache and flash.

Or you can make backup, wipe all, format system, flash new version and then go to restore/advance restore and restore only data.

You'll have brand new ROM with all your files and settings. - Recommended
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Themed version will be out tomorrow ;)

Testers didn't report signal lost error.

But please, flash, try and report.

We found some minor bugs in settings/permissions and we'll fix that in next release.

But that's not important for ROM.

Enjoy ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MadCobbler:
Yeah you should be able to 'dirty flash' but there is a slim possibility that you could get some issues that wouldn't be there from a clean flash... try it and let us know. If you do encounter any issues you may have to do a clean flash :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dreezz:
i think i´ll go for Funky´s suggestion in #2939

haven´t used the advance restore yet (used app2zip restore before, but like to see how this works out)

thx guys!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] elkadeho:
i m just happy about the close themed-release date :) thanks guys!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dreezz:
your way worked great funky0308, thx!

i´m wondering what the exact differences are between the normal and themed edition.

is it a good suggestion to write a few lines extra in the opening post so people know what to choose?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] elkadeho:
themed has the sony-like look n feel (just better of cause). Xperia-launcher, sony-apps n lot more stuff to love.

but yeah, some infos for those who dont know would be nice.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
We will do it

Tnx for all your support, if you bump into some problems, don't panik, ask, we will help you.

See ya guys ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
It's still early for that.

Remember, after flashing a new ROM, calibrate battery and let the few charging cycles past.

Then you'll have real battery stats.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] clinta:
Too early to say but the battery life seems to have improved compared to previous version.

I just have one problem with brightness even when I have auto brightness turned off the brightness seems to change on its own I tried the open semc apk but no luck
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] AwesomeARC:

Screen Auto rotation is not working for me, :( can someone plz check if its working or not?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] red.leader87:
Dirty installed over 22.2 everything was fine until I accidentally checked the lock screen auto rotation tile in pull down menu. Realised this a few hrs later but after unchecking, couldn't get auto rotation working at all from anywhere. Am guessing it's isolated due to dirty install but may be bug? Thanks!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] clinta:
Anybody got this bug or is it just me experiencing this problem?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Try to wipe cache or reflash with only cache and davlik cache wipe.

If that doesn't help you'll have to flash clean again.

Nobody reported that...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] clinta:
Will try it.thanks for the reply
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] robotov:
Version 2.2.0 was better than version 2.4.0

Of course, it's my personal opinion. I've even decided to downgrade. Version 2.4.0 has some issues with my camera app and the Images store. Both of them hang time to time. Moreover, the camera has problems with orientation of photos and you have to rotate images afterwards. So, I'll be waiting for next releases.

Version 4.2.0 is simply perfect! Cool job!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] karasev1:
its not working for me too :(( i think there is a problem with acceltormeter driver or sometin, its not working in games like doodle jump, into the dead. :confused: pls check this developers. thanx.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
You checked all display settings and you have enabled rotation?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Panaroma:
+1 rotation dont work for me also.

And i dont know if this was asked earlier but for me the max brightness is a little bit low?! Its ok but i remember on stock it was "brighter" ;)

Thanks for this great ROM and the excelent support!

---------- Post added at 09:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 PM ----------

For me: Yes. ;) tried everything. Reflash, dirty and clean, wipe just dalvik and cache...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anightfire:
i can confirm the auto rotation glitch, havent come across any other issues as such ....battery is going pretty smooth( 9hrs since full recharge and still got 41%).....auto rotation is kinda important though.......overall still a good ROM.....thanks guys:good:

i clicked 2 pic one in landscape and 1 in portrait (my rotation is locked at portrait) but both images were in landscape.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Try this sensors test https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=zausan.zdevicetest

Or some else app for that and we'll see what's the problem.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] karasev1:
yeah bro i checked everythin about rotation and sensors also i wiped dalvik and chache and restart few times but nothing happpend and i tried the sensor test its says me it isnt working. it isnt about the rotation settings i think.

as u can see, my bro.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] asdfgj69g:
My sensor box app says almost no sensors are available. I have installed the Opensemc beta 3 kernel. That must be the culprit! Tomorrow I am gonna install the latest version again and keep the kernel that came with it
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] precardo:
Problem still persists for me:( auto-rotation is of high importance to me, it saddens me because I have to revert back to stock jelly bean, I will come back as soon as the problem is resolved
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] asdfgj69g:
I experience the same. I have tried 3 setups, which didn't work:

- dirty flash (only cache and dalvik cache wiped), with the Opensemc kernel

- dirty flash, nothing added

- clean install, as described in the first postings

A pity
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dreezz:
same problem here... no auto-rotation.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:

We are very sorry but in a compiling process, one bug has slipped away and causing this autorotation bug.

We are on it (at least Vertigo is ;) ) , he found a problem and soon we will fix it and release fixed version.

Any other bugs or wishes?

And thank you all for reporting, you are great guys, you didn't panic - you reported bug and we are fixing it.

That's the right way ;)

auto rotation is not working for me, but didn't work in previous version either... also ,I have auto brightness disabled, but sometimes it still changes brightness when i hold my phone in my hand... otherwise, no problems...

is there a changelog for 22.4?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Lile little flicker or?

[MENTION=323273]funky[/MENTION] another odd feature that did not need unnecessarily changes is the 'ribbon', the one from v22.2 allows me to add empty icons which then allow me to add any app I want in that placeholder of tha empty icon. (much preferred and easier)

Now on v22.4 'ribbon' not working in the same manor;:( on v22.4 when selecting ribbon it just gives a drop down list off apps( but not all system and user apps are available for selection):( :( I hope next release ribbon will work as same as on v22.2:)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MadCobbler:
Thats how AOKP have done it now, nothing to do with PACman I'm afraid, you'll have to have a word with them :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] precardo:
Oh :sly: thanks for response

Edit: or better yet I will stick with Pacman v22.2:):):)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
I don't know do you guys even know that PAC isn't exclusively on XS.

Pac-man team is big and lots of developer working on different devices so it's possible that guy who is responsible for ribbon decided to go in other way and leave some features behind.

But, as Vertigo said, he will talk to crew and see what will thay say...

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

That's cool man, but that's not screenshot from file manager where you show apk file, it's some pict with list if files.

I'm not trying to say you are not right but I heard that for the first time.

Do you mean that it has to be extract from stock Rom?

Because u newer saw that app in Pac (system/app)

That's why I said, if you know, write that, but I doubt it's so simple...

---------- Post added at 10:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:20 PM ----------

I know that its a list I dont use walkman atm neither the themed version.

I was just a hint for you to try slovinging the problem yourselfe.

I also dont know if you need to copy the files to system/app or if installing does it.

But you can try and report back here so you can support development.

Come on man, you want me to copy app from stock ROM to cm10.1?!

I doubt Shingers and now Phil copy/paste app from stock to cm.

That would be great but that's not how things work.

Some app have to be ported, you can't just copy keyboard from 4.1 stock and paste it to cm10 - that won't work.

Of course that you can find missing files in stock ROM, album is Sony stock app, but you have to port app to cm based rom to work.

And some app won't work even then without Sony framework or libraries....if that was so simple everyone would be dev.

Let's go again, that's like someone writes : do you know you can make 1500$ on web.

Tell others how and provide links.

99% of stock app doesn't work on customs ROM's without some interventions.

So if you found that some app could work, why don't you write a post and upload links.

You wrote ten posts but you couldn't wrote that info.

I wrote and I'll write again, app's from stock doesn't work if you only copy them to sdcard.

So if you found that something new work and especially if you found that you can expand functionality of the three app added few days ago.

Write how, post link and then you did something.

Claim that something work and post "some piece of paper" with list of files...

Well...sorry mate but I can claim I have millions that way.

We have a rep here for providing answers to question promptly but it consumes time and takes effort hence why I took some time off.
