Hey guys,

first thanks for the nice words :)

so I want to do a small summary about reported bugs:

- transparent statusbar on lockscreen sometimes does not work

- mouse cursor is not visible (this is more a feature then a bug...plain AOSP does not support it but I will look into it)

- for some the camera freeze problem on 12Mp after some days or a lot pictures taken)

- wake up on lockscreen is laggy sometimes (I think only combination of secure lockscreen (pattern/pin etc) and slider lockscreen (you can turn on optional to show before the secure lockscreen), am I right??)

- recents is sometimes empty (do not have it here but can someone confirm it??)

- HDMI is still not working (I tried now a lot....but to be honest I do not want to go away from caf because of too much benefits at the moment + that the mako repos as well are not really 100% stable on HDMI)

that were all when I remember right....did I forgot something? At the moment I am fixing all the smaller bugs to push out a final stable SlimBean build.6 before the crazy work begin with the new AOSP version which should be announced today from google and of course hopefully sony will release the JB sources

cheers and thanks,

Lars

PS. How is the build.5 so far for all other?? Saw that it was not that much downloaded then build.4.2 and the one before
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] brown_89:
There's a kernel that supports overclocking and offline charge that i can flash on this rom?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bhavikgupta:
how do i install this on my SL

PS : I am new here
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] wargre:
Same as the S : read the 3rd post of this thread (but I recommand to put the rom zip and gapps zip in the sdcard before reboot to flash the boot.img)

We've noticed :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bhavikgupta:
After i flash this kernal on my stock phone .. the phone froze after the sony logo and before the Xperia logo ( blank display )
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anightfire:
Have u unlocked your bootloader? do u see a purple LED light at sony start up logo?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bhavikgupta:
Unlocked Bootloader = Yes

Purple LED = i don't remember ( flashed back to stock ROM )
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anightfire:
If u get purple led that means recovery is installed.... Once u see purple led u have to press and hold volume up button... It directs u to recovery either clock work mod or twrp... From there u can install custom rom... Be sure to save ur desired rom on sd card
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bhavikgupta:
Is it necessary to install the kernal 1st

I read somewhere that the ROM contains the kernal
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] brown_89:
If you flashed the kernel and turn on the phone it is normal that stay stuck on boot because the kernel works only on jelly bean roms! Continue the entire procedure and you are ok!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bhavikgupta:
I am on xSl, last time when i was trying to flash MIUI i read that on SL i need to make some changes to my built file.

Do i need to do the same here also .
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anightfire:
yes u have to fastboot kernel first if u are coming from stock kernel. From then on if u want to use any other ROM u can just flash via recovery.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bhavikgupta:
wat about the buit file do i need to change that too
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] sayyouwill:
This ROM is very smooth. However, I have trouble with battery life. The ROM drains too much. My phone can only live for only a half of day.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bhavikgupta:
Thanks a ton all of u guys

I finally installed this amazing ROM .. loving it

I am still having some issues, i'll ask if necessary

people here love to help, thank you XDA

Some Question coming ur way

1) How do i get stock walkman and video app

2) How do i get xloud and Bravia Engine to work

PS - Is it me or the battery charge is seriously slow for everyone
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anightfire:
Check themes and app section for mods and addons..

Did you mean battery charging or discharging.... Charging is fine for me
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bhavikgupta:
Charging

Its taking longer than usual
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anightfire:
It's working fine for me.... It depends on your battery too and whether your charging via adapter or laptop.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bhavikgupta:
I am charging via the charger provided with the phone.

M using wifi with charger and the battery is still draining.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anightfire:
Guess u should calibrate your battery. There are many calibration apps on playstore... Download and calibrate ur battery for 2-3 charging cycles... And review what they have to say.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] sirius_gamer:
Happened with me too when I flashed the ROM without formatting cache and data. Try to flash the ROM again by formating data and cache.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] gajer:
Thanks for help it works. One more noob question. There is a leaked stock jb rom for SXS by DooMLoRD. Is there any chance to change the slimbean camera for stock jb camera?

thanks

[ROM][4.2.2] SlimBean - nozomi - Xperia S [Build v2.1][UNOFFICIAL][UPDATE]

Great rom.

Just have little issue (maybe due to kernel because I have this issue on Rayman's as well).

While playing game, I noticed a sudden lag so I quit the game and saw in the performance menu that the "Maximum CPU Frequency" had been set to 1134MHz (and the current cpu max out at only 1134MHz which I assume causing the lag).

I open and close this setting and the max cpu randomly set back to 1512MHz. Is there any reason to this?

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] martinko23:
My 1st impressions on this rom.

Excellent.

No bugs for me, battery life excellent ( on open semc in 4hours with no use i lost 40%, here 6hours of no use i lost 5% :D )

Smooth like butter, customisable, and.. AND .. CRT ANIMATION IS HERE :laugh:

Thank you guys.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dhilluk:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dhilluk:
Yes, It is unlocked.

Edit: Could it be because I didn't fix permissions? (I wiped everything and formatted system)

Re: [ROM][4.2.2] SlimBean - nozomi - Xperia S [Build v2.1][UNOFFICIAL][UPDATE]

Now even semc will lose the same battery.. Rayman fixed the drain and slim rom uses his fix so battery is wonderful on both :)

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] xmixmaster:
put the files of rom in your SD then flash via fastboot the kernel go into recovery wipe data/cache/dalvink/system install the rom+gapps reboot and enjoy :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dhilluk:
Thank you, I did wonder if that was the way to do it, I had to do that for FXP CM10 a while back!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] denaz:
Please, tell me which governor and scheduler you use, because i'm really far from these result. For example, tonight my phone was in aero mode for something like 7 or 8 hours and it losts nearly 10%. And looking at the stats the deep sleep works.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kufikugel:
:good: absolutly right as I mentioned now several times :p Without a good kernel no good battery life as simple as it is. The rom which is working on top of course does also have something to do with it......but without good kernel it is useless ;) And believe me Raymans kernel is the best here available!!!!!

Beside that CM (from rom view) in general is battery friendly like Slim is also. You will find more on not optimized roms (I do not want to say names) more battery drain because of not good resource handling of the mods included in there.

But to speak for nozomi.....Raymans CM and Slim here are both on same level.

check for apps which are causing wakelock etc with BBS. Google Now, google maps and especially facebook like to drain battery.

cheers

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bhavikgupta:
Sry but i didn't understand wat u mean

Can u give me the link for the app
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Nek0x90:
You can search for an app on the Play Store, that's what he told you.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bhavikgupta:
Lol that was funny

I meant to ask wat calibration is
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anightfire:
Battery calibration is an app to calibrate your battery when u feel it's performing bad.... Just search in play store for battery calibration there are many, download the one that's recently updated.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] martinko23:
It will delete a file from the system and in this file there are informations about the battery. As soon as it is deleted the android system will make a new one. And then you will have a good battery life :)

Send with my awesome
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bhavikgupta:
It says battery should be 100% charged

Is their a problem if i force it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] martinko23:
I don't know, but I think you should be patient and wait until it charge to 100% ;)

Send from my awesome Nexus 7.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anightfire:
for the app to calibrate ur battery correctly its very important to follow the cycles....1. charge completely to 100%....start calibration app... u can use the phone how ever u want, 2. charge the phone again once it reaches 15% to a complete 100%

i believe 2 cycles are enough for the results to show
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] brown_89:
I think that isn't normal. Also for me the battery drains very very fast and i have recalibrated the battery twice...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] CKal:
I had a clean flash. Or I think I did.

I wiped data, wiped cache, wiped dalvik-cache, formatted system, then flashed.

But I didn't use it much - I installed Titanium Backup and restored my data. Then I began using and then problem starts to surface.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] gajer:
I think this rom is one of the best, but i still miss, the hdmi support:(
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Everlasting:
Try a clean install without restoring data from TiBu. sometimes sh*t happens when restoring data.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kufikugel:
hmm that is indeed not normal....but a bit more information....which govenor etc you are using....how much screen time....install BBS to checkout what is draining your battery exactly etc etc

easier to localize it then what is the cause on your phone ;) Most user has normal battery life (still not like ICS stock of course but not that far away)

We published today a new weekly on slimroms.net....try it with this....I fixed something on recents which should make it better/fix it

a bit patient please....working on ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] agentinani047:
Very very stable. Only two issues I have

1) battery drain (doesn't last more than 10 hours)

2) there is just a little bit of lag in the app drawer and while scrolling in home screen. Since everything else is so perfect that really bothers me (I'm using nova)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anightfire:
Battery is not as good as jb 4.1.2 or even ics, we'll have to wait for Sony kernel sources for that..... And if u feel your transitions are not smooth then make changes in Nova settings > look and feel>here u'll find options to set app and transition animation speed, chose what fits best for you.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] agentinani047:
Did that. Still it takes time to render. The widgets especially.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bhavikgupta:
Try stock sony launcher

Works perfect for me, no lags
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] AnrgKrshn:
Hey

I'm running eXistenZ and already have a custom recovery. Do I still need to flash this?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tradingtoms:
On their homepage it is said that if you come from a JB ROM, then you can skip this part - just flash the zip files. It worked like a charm for me.

Just started testing this ROM. I like that the ROM actually stands out (interface, different kernel and drivers) unlike a lot of other ROMs. Will try to give a more detailed feedback after a few day usage.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anightfire:
In Nova settings go to advanced and select aggressive desktop.... It keeps nova in memory so that it can load fast
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Memethecat:
Does that use more battery?

Sent from my Xperia S
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kufikugel:
no should not drain the battery.

so guys for first some news....I worked now some days since google IO on the complete new stuff from google and published it today. Mainly it effects the gapps due they pushed a lot new apps. Worked in the inverted TRDS option as well the new libs etc etc

News article you will find here:

http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/news/316-google-io-meets-slimbean-new-gapps

For the guys who just want to update can use the upgrades packages...just flash wipe dalvic/cache and you are fine to go.

Then some other good news....I think I fixed the camera issue (freeze after some days of not using it) and as well HDMI ;) Tester builds will go out tomorrow or latest wednesday to confirm it finally.

and about battery as I said give a bit more information....it is no problem to use it over a full day on normal use. As you saw some guys posted here their battery stats which confirms that...so we need to find out the cause.

Cheer and thanks,

Lars

lockscreen dots over the display

hello guys. I just installed and adapt this great ROM the way I like. I use the pattern for lockscreen. In other ROMs the pattern dots are stretched over the whole display, but in Slim ROM the dots are too tiny, not over the whole display (the attached photo is for illustrative purposes only). I have no idea where in setting to tweak it. Any idea? Thank you
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] wargre:
Did you set the screen to 320dpp ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zliffer:
Hi mates,

I have a Xperia SL, same lt26ii and im thinking on flast this ROM, it is possible? i have listen that both phones are the same hardware with some overclocks,

Thanks in advance!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] onlavu:
Currently on 280, but I also tryied 320 and no big difference. There is still a lot of unused space below the clock, so dots dont occupy the whole display, e.g. as known from stock ICS.

Further, Phone encryption doesnt work for me (even though the phone is fully charged and connected to charger). Everything goes fine (entered the PIN, then restarted as required) till the next boot. After the signing in, nothing happend. I repeated the process several times, no success.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kufikugel:
thats a 4.2 related change from google due that you have now the possibility to add wigets (clock, wheather, sms, gmail or whatever widgets you want) on top of your pattern/slider/pw etc. So the top half is used for widgets the bottom half is for the security.

add eg on top the dashclock widget with some settings....or add the sms widget you will see why they changed it
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] onlavu:
thanks for explanation, [MENTION=4790322]kufikugel[/MENTION]. Now I understand. But what if I dont want to use any widget/app/whatever?

Battery drain

About the battery drain,

I tried to investigate the problem a little further.

It seems that the radio is draining most of the battery for me.

This is something that is also confirmed by GSam battery monitor.

I can get about 2 hours of screen time with moderate use of 3G/WiFi and i would be down to 15% after just under 24 hours most of the time.

I did find something that seems to contradict this, as the draining remained when i put the phone in flight mode (as you can see in the screenshot).

But you can clearly see that it really goes down quickly, even when the phone is not being used at that time.

Speaking of flight mode, i did find a bug there. Sometimes the phone will require a (couple of) reboot(s) before flight mode can be switched off.

Sometimes it will just keep jumping between on and off when you try to disable it again.

I have just charged the phone, so i will keep an eye on what the battery does today and report back with more accurate information.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anightfire:
media volume is by default linked with notification sounds, but there is an option to unlink it and adjust notification and media volume separately, just see if u have unlinked it. And if u have then ur good to go.
