Extract boot.img and flash in fastboot, the same like you flashed previously boot.img
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Xploda:
Alright i'll do that now.

I'll let you know how it went :)

Thanks for your help.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kufikugel:
easiest way use adb over the command line during you are in cwm

adb push /sdcard/<filename>

and you have it on your phone

EDIT: btw of course the way mentioned above works as well
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Xploda:
I'll give that a shot first :P

I have tried it but it couldn't find any devices, i'll play around with it a little.

---------- Post added at 09:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:32 PM ----------

I think i finally managed to copy it by using adb.

I issued the command: adb sideload "Slim-nozomi..." and it seemed to copy everything.

Now if i go to install in the recovery, is it possible that this command renamed the zip to "sideload.zip"?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kufikugel:
yes.

As well a possibility to do it like that. Do not forget to flash the slim_gapps as well ;) you need them...all other addons are optional
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Xploda:
I just rebooted the device and missed entering the recovery. It booted into the rom already but it didn't really work properly (apps crashing).

Should i do the wipes now etc and then install from the zip file?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kufikugel:
yes to be now save that you really have all clean and you are so or so on a first install I would

push the SlimBean build and the gapps to your sdcard...

then go into recovery.....

wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvic, format system manually.....

then flash SlimBean build + gapps and reboot.

Then you have for sure an absolutly clean first install :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Xploda:
Got it all up and running now, it's running like a charm :laugh:

Thanks a million times for helping me out, it's kinda scary to be stuck in recovery :p

cheers

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] borgsta:
I installed slim gapps and have the lock screen.

Maybe I didn't explain it well. I have settings > interface > lock screen. However from there i have no options to add shortcuts to the lock screen. This is what I see, is it right?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kufikugel:
how this screen looks depends on what you have setuped in screen security (first point).

If it is slider....you have all the options you are searching for

for none, pattern, pin etc it looks like you are showing

for pattern, pin etc you can enable "show slider before secure lock" so that the slider is coming before the pattern, pin etc....and you have as well all the options (btw there we introduced a small bug...this combination at the moment forces two pattern entry to unlock...I fixed it yesterday...not a big clue but annoying lol)

and when you still have with all this possibilities the same screen....then please ask again.

cheers
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] borgsta:
That was the option, user error as usual. Thanks for taking the time to answer so properly.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Xploda:
Just thought i'd report back after a few hours of using the rom :D

I'm really impressed with this rom, with all these customization options i don't even want to go back to official jelly bean when it gets released :p

Rom is very smooth and battery life seems to be excellent, no bugs encountered so far.

There was one issue however, i left the phone on overnight and some battery got drained (about 15% in 9 hours, apparently by radio).

I rebooted the phone when i woke up and now the battery graph is almost horizontal when i'm not using the device :D .

If you're reading this and thinking of installing this rom, just do it, it's far more enjoyable than stock Sony ICS :laugh:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] HectorW:
guys any idea why i get FC with my Contacts? i get it every time and I can't save any number in it :(
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Everlasting:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] HectorW:
didn't really help, it's actually when I go to Call History and I try to call back or view or save the number I get "string empty" and FC :(
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Manos_the_Greek:
Hello guys, thank you for the awesome rom,

I;ve installed 4.2 but it seems that I can't play videos in the gallery is it a know issue?

When running 4.0 I had no problem with playing videos.

Thanks!

unlocked BL and all

Clean flashed 4.0 and dirty flashed 4.2
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Everlasting:
You could try installing another contact.apk from other rom. Uninstall the current one with Titanium Backup.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] martin366:
Im having super annoying reboots after reboots.

Like: Reboot phone - about 20sec after startup phone freezes (screen fades out) and does reboot, maybe then starts up good.

Using latest Slimbean kernel, sakuractive/fiops.

I try clean install, but i think thats kernel related problem :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Xploda:
I had a similar problem once today when i was messing around with the cpu governor settings, but i didn't get it again afterwards :eek:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kufikugel:
are you using polish language? The Call History problem is known on polish because of a translation error from crowdin. To solve it for first switch to english.

working fine here.

hmm strange never happened here or get reports about that. Can you try to get a logcat? Did you change govenour etc with a 3rd party app or with the performance settings? If first...disable it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Xploda:
Battery drain

It seems that somehow my battery is still getting drained, but i can't really figure out why it's happening :confused:.

Is this the battery life i should expect or is something wrong? If yes, what can i do about it?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] HectorW:
u r right, problem solved, if you guys want me to translate anything I can do that to make it work...

I miss some Sony stuff but I think it's the best ROM so far for ours phones!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kufikugel:
hmm can you give us a bit more information....like how much screen time you had....what is your usage etc. As well which govenor etc you are using. Also let the build settle down now two or three days that it got some cycles.

As I saw it here all are really happy here in the thread about battery.

for first you can do me a favour and flash this (btw for all with language problems just flash this without any wipe)

http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/all/viewcategory/432-fixes

this should fix your contacts problem. Maybe an explanation for all. We started some weeks ago to translate our rom with the community portal crowdin.net. There user can login and help to translate the rom into their language. This worked fantastic and we got fast a lot translations....on the other hand we had to learn that not all translations were right and caused some error when the language is choosen on the phone (eg a string was missing etc). We are working now every day to get all translation mistakes out....not easy lol but it is going step by step.

Everyone (HectorW of course we are happy for every help) can help us to translate over crowdin.net. There we add our project (search for slimbean or slimroms). If you have any questions just ask. We thought it is time to translate the rom into any language...especially because really less roms have this....cm partly, AOSP of course but that's it....and we have a bunch of user which are not native english speaker.

thanks and cheers

Problem in video playback

Hi guys,

I have installed slim 4.2.2 . Did a factroy wipe and davlc cache wipe. My phone freeze when i watch a video that was recorded by my camera on Xperia SL. The error occurs while playing the video in the built in video player and when you change the orientation of the phone couple of times. The phone becomes unresponsive and you have to hard-reset the phone. I was able to replicate this bug ever time i use the video player.

Rest of the things are fine with the ROM.

Hi!

I still not managed to have any hdr cam app working. Need confirmation for this one...

Tryed HDR Camera+ and Pro HDR cam.

Did use HDR Camera+ on AOKP. And it worked on this phone.

When installed any HDR Cam App on slimbean or cm10.1 cam freezes in HDR app and Stock Cam freezes too when taking pictures.

So... Im out of options for trying. Maybe its a conflict with the kernel?!

Can anyone confirm working HDR Cam on 4.2.2 Roms ???

Thx

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] wernerzero:
...first impressions...

Installed it yesterday evening...and so far...I'm impressed...

I've come from Stock w/Elite-kernel - XZX - PAC 22, and for me they all had problems, lag, reboots, FCs etc. One day they could be good, snappy and smooth, the next day they had all kinds of problems... Strange... I was going back to Stock, as it was the most stable and reliable of them all, but it looks dull IMO. Decided to give custom ROMs one last chance...and Slim gets the honour...

So far Slimbean seems to be all I want from a ROM...looks good, snappy, smooth, stable and reliant. It has a few quirks or misses a few things or maybe I haven't found the settings yet.

I'll be reporting and asking after some more use. I'm still setting it up and letting it settle.

So far, so good...

EDIT: Ok, first random reboot on this... :/ and all cameras freeze when taking pictures or rather when they are saving the photo...it's like they can't write to sdcard..? Hmmm...

W.Z.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anightfire:
slim bean has been smooth for me as i have switched between PAC n slim many times......as far as the camera is concerned i found camera faster on slimbean.....i once had a camera issue of burst mode clicks even if burst was not on and sometimes it gets stuck when i click and doesnt capture the image.....i thought it was my mistake as i had installed JB camera+ .....all i did was clean install this rom again and everything works awesome
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] wernerzero:
Yep, the camera is faster on this. Don't now what happened with the cameras earlier...suddenly they all (JB, CameraZoom and ProCapture) freezed and after a while it said "could not connect to camera"...

Well I have now installed everything again...clean install ofcourse...

That's really the only issue so far. This ROM is really fast and smooth. Looks good as well. :)

Waiting for everything to settle now that I've installed and tweaked all settings to my liking. Charging it to full and then I'll be testing the battery.

What Kernel-combo are guys using? Haven't changed it from interactive/row yet.

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

Hey guys....a small tease for build.5...beside that we have fixed mostly all reported bugs (especially translations) I had a bit time today to do a bit feature polish (and there are others on the way for build.5 by crazy mnazim)

let's begin the spoiler alert :p

SlimPIE....performance and sensibility increase:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106208842/Pie1.mp4

SlimPIE....new features:

what they can do:

https://github.com/SlimRoms/frameworks_base/commit/abb64ea09707e48a643f7df49603c3c244d7e0e9

due optimizing a lot + that we do not need any background service for SlimPIE it is really less resource using :)

and all other which will come....will be a secret till release ;)

Now, since I'm on leaked JB, I have installed the boot.img from the leaked JB, as adviced by doomlord, now can I install slim latest version on top of it or should I flash any specific boot.img and then flash slim as per the instructions... Please advice...

Yeah, follow this:

-Open camera

- Long press in whichever Place and slide to options ( 3 lines)

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] eletricx:
At first several times I flash this rom, I have the same battery problem, especially the draining in airplane mode. But, from the last restore operation, there is almost no battery waste in airplane mode. Do not ask me how to achieve it. I just back up slimbean, install pac, restore slimbean, install..... . In my view, this battery friendly situation happens by choice. Maybe I overlooked some step important in the installion steps. :victory:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Xploda:
Hmm I see...

I think i'll just wait for now and clean install the newest build when it gets released.

At the moment it's draining about 2% of battery per hour when doing nothing. Doesn't sound much but it adds up when you just leave it overnight.

In the morning it will have lost almost 20%...

But as i said, this won't stop me from using this awesome rom :laugh:

build.5

Hey guys,

we are ready and just release SlimBean.4.2.2.build.5.....a short note....we changed some fundamental things this time....eg the stock launcher changed to one which is less mem intensive and faster. We did over weeks now tests to find the best which fit our needs. Small hint...for the dirty flashers....we put in a script which keeps as well the old launcher this time...so that user are not directly shocked :p But as you know....if dirty flash did any problems....you need to do a clean flash ;)

As well we did a lot system core changes which increased the overall stability again. Especially nozomi profits a lot of them after we tested it deeply.

Beside that SlimPIE got a last overwork....and is now working awesome good with nice additions. As well camera got some new stuff...and all what you else could read in changelog :D

So here you go....read the changelog carefully:

http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/changelog

download the build and gapps....flash as usual and in changelog mentioned

and go :)

cheers and have fun,
