[Sony Xperia ZL] Nimche:
Nice!

Did you mention how nice the power button is? Its the first time that Sony has got it right and maybe used it part of design feature and as far as I have tried it, it works really well.

While I do agree that things coming with phone should work (like iPhone) in this case without use of 3rd party apps but after using android for long time, I think I like to have my phone customized whenever I get a new handset. Swift-Key Keyboard is first thing to install for me and I usually root the phone and put stock email app back as I have no idea what Sony has done to email app that doesn't function right specially with Google Apps accounts.

For many gadgets are only based on power of software and some hardware and few power of both, but if anyone see this as power of 3 components of physical design, software and hardware, it should say that Xperia ZL sits in a comfortable place. There are flaws but also there are lots of good features.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Hamodi:
i need your experince guys wich JB rom had the best camera around on the xperia S fourm ?!

is there any one with stock camera ! i know its impossible since there is no jb source for it
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
The camera is the same on all actual JB ROMs, AFAIK. It will be better with Sony's JB.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Hamodi:
Yeah I know but Sony jb no one knows when it comes out.. March passed and no sign for it yet xzx is prety lagg with me sometimes I dont know what I don wrong
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
God damn it. Wait a bit... It will come in the following weeks, you just gotta be patient. The best things comes for those who wait.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Hamodi:
Yeah I know thats why I didnt ask if its out! I just wanted to know if the rooms around had a good camera even with third app
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RazorMC:

I got my xperia arc s today and I have unlocked the bootloader still if I want to flash a rom do I need to root ?? plz help :confused:

I'm on 2.3.4 stock rom and kernel
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
Do what the instructions say of the ROM. Install kernel, install ROM, done.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Destroyedbeauty:
Sv: a bit of help

Just flash Blend kernel (for battery), Advanced Stock Kernel Gingerbread version by Doomlord (Battery / performance) or Doomlord kernel v22 (performance) and you're good to go because those auto-roots your phone for custom ROM madness flashing!

Hi folks,

regarding this rom:

[ROM][Acro S] XZXperience 2 | Official Sony JellyBean ported to ICS [02/03/13]

I have the following questions:

Starting the ponebook and also the camera is sooo slow, it takes at least ~ 2.5 sec until I see contacts in the phonebook and another ~2 seconds to start the camera application.

How are your starting times of these two apps? I installed again my stock .55 rom and both apps, phonebook and camera were much quicker.

Can you recommend other apps for replacing these both apps?

I wanted to post these both questions directly under the development thread but I´m not allowed to...

Thanks for your support.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Vaith:
Odp: [Q] [Acro S] XZXperience 2 - slow phonebook, slow camera start

It takes that long because this apps starts first time. They will be in memory and next launches will be faster 0.5-1 sec.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Hamodi:
Its not for me I have the same problems too
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Vaith:
Odp: [Q] [Acro S] XZXperience 2 - slow phonebook, slow camera start

This isn't "problem". It's normal. It's opening like in Windows.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Siggmaster:
Nope, always takes a long time after I wake up the phone while the display was off. This is quite annoying, especially the dialer. I tested again and it took 4 seconds until I saw my contacts....
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] AntaresAntares:
Slow starting camera is a huge usability fail

I have same problem here on Acro S. In most cases camera starting time is 5 seconds. Phonebook is slow too.

I think that's crazy. Things like camera and dialer should be instant. For me slow-starting camera is useless.

I hoped that Sony would fix it in the new firmware. But last two firmware updates changed nothing. Now at 6.2.B1.96

Is there a way to setup camera app to be always running as background process?

ps: I've found that there is same issue on Xpreria Z: (search for "xperia z camera slow lunch" at xperia support forums. cant post urls)
[Motorola Atrix 2] Night_wing:
Right so I was using this app "clean master" from the market, but instead of cleaning useless stuff, caches etc. it wiped out my all of my sd data! wtf?? now what am I supposed to do? its 32gb class 10 micro sd so alot of my stuff was in that! especially the in-game app data which you have to download via wifi-hurts the most am literally crying :c ... dunno if this was posted before and I'm a total noob, is it possible to get my **** back ._.
[Motorola Atrix 2] 1BadWolf:
Re: [Q] lost all my data! &gt;.&lt;

There are several apps in the playstore that claim they can recover deleted files on an SD card. I keep multiple backups so I haven't tried any of them out, but it might be worth a shot.

Brought to you by time and relative dimensions in space.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Lifehacker7:
Re: [Q] lost all my data! &gt;.&lt;

Undelete for root users.( one such)

It recovers out of cache I believe.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] johnnybwoy:
Hi all,

I installed CyanogenMod and played with it for some day and now i would like to restore my backup.

I installed gooManager some days ago, because ive seen allot of people saying that is was awesome, so i gave it a try, and now i can't boot my phone in clockworkmod. I installed ROM manager 5.5.2.3 in hope to get my phone to startup in clockwork recovery, but no succes.

Can anyone give me advise how to remove "team win recovery project" from my phone? or a way to force my phone to boot in "clockwork recovery"

I am new to this forum, so i hope this is the right place to ask this question.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] budzylikessoup:
When you open up ROM Manager, tap "Recovery Setup". Next, tap "install or update recovery" and then confirm that you have the Verizon GS3. Click "OK" when given the warning. Finally, click "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery". It will download, and next time you boot into recovery, it will be CWM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XdrummerXboy:
Did you update to the newest cwm? The gs3 only supports up till 6.0.2.8 or something like that, which is not the absolute newest. ROM Manager will check for you based on the phone, so that's a good app to have.

Sent from GS3 runnung CM10.1 and blacked out theme.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] johnnybwoy:
Hey guys thanks for the information. With this information i managed to get clockworkmod to boot.
[Sony Xperia ZL] bothfly:
So I'm using the stock SMS and eMail and not getting the notification light to come on with a message. Anyone else getting there's to work??
[Sony Xperia ZL] Dpk1:
Notification light works here without any issues. Make sure u don't have stamina mode "on". I've read somewhere that restore from google account backup messes up the notification led. So, u may try a factory reset without backup restore if anything else doesn't work out.

This has been discussed before, try searching the forum before posting. Also, I think its the wrong section for Q&A / troubleshooting.

Yeah I typed before I searched.

PiB
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Febby:
Thank you! Please, please, please, Make a back up before you flash this tonight on his/her device as I no longer have a epic 4g touch to test this. Worst that can happen is a flash abort due to a mistake I made in the updater script. :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cerj:
Febby, when Boost Mobile first dropped the E4GT, you were one of the few (very few) that had insight on how, what and why, when it came to rooting and MMS. I thanked you for that back then, and I thank you for this right now. Thank you
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Febby:
Thank you for the kind words my friend. I just tested this on a friend who ie flashed to boost mobile. Confirmed working. =))

edit: I love how someone is hating on my little work by leaving a one star on my thread. Coward! :P

How long does it usually take to boot?

Wanted to try it out but I waited 5 minutes and it didn't boot.

Did I miss something or..?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Febby:
Did you get to the boost mobile load up screen? Perhaps bad download or flash. If you got to the boost screen it was loading.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dypraxxx:
I did see, but I waited 5 minutes as stated before. Does it take longer?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Febby:
Try waiting a bit longer as it does take a while (huge file size to load and cache). If not try redownloading.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eisawi99:
hello, i was wondering if i could use this as a base rom for a rom i might make. it will be my first rom and i would like to use this because it is pre deodexed zipaligned etc. i look forward to your reply.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
I have a 19 month old, so I feel your pain brother. No hurry. Just did it from my laptop via pdanet at work, wanted to make sure it went through. And you've seen what I'm trying to do, is it exactly like this ROM in your OP?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Febby:
Give that updater script a try brother it should work! Looks good to me from here. :))
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
Really? No way! I'll give it a try then. See what happens and let you know
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
Yeah, that didn't take man. I tried just wiping cache/dalvik, then flashing through agat and el26, then complete wipe, flash, nothing. Still status 0 error. Then I ran into all kinds of issues trying to restore. Still working through those. I must have borked something up in the kitchen trying to play around with the boot image tools. Think I should just start from scratch?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Febby:
Yes sir, I would suggest starting from scratch and don't link the data/app option where it shows in the kitchen, also set the API level to 16 (i think default on the kitchen is 15). Also upgrade the script this time when it allows you to do so. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattweed9:

Will ComaDose v1.3 (tweaks) work with this ROM?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
They should. However, if you are using Agat's kernel/recovery, you might want to read through some of the threads because there have been fc issues because the two conflict. There are several posts outlining which one of the tweaks are conflicting and what to delete and keep.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jburke90:
This is where I'm at. The ROM is running smooth! Have ComaDose 1.3 flashed, and running stock kernal. (Flashed coma with recovery then flashed stock kernal). Everything seems good so far. My only issue is that I need hotspot... and I don't think it's hacked on this ROM (correct me if I'm wrong). Is there a way to get hotspot (wireless tether)?

Other than it's great! I can finally send MMS again! :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mister7000:
I guess no one has flashed this gc01 modem yet...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
I have...using it now. Works just fine :thumbup:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mister7000:
Thank you for that speedtest. That confirms there is something wrong with my phone.

I also flashed this modem but I can not get pings lower than 700ms and my download speeds are never any higher than 300kbps.

I have flashed a whole bunch of different modems to no avail.

Can any one share some light on this ?

I have a sprint D710 flashed to boost using incognito Donor that I have been using for about 3 years.

I used to get about 1.5 Mbps downloads but since I moved to Jellybean it's very slow.

Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
Hmmmm, have you tried updating your PRL and profile after you change modems or ROMs? Always a good idea. If it won't take, Terry flashing to stock, get prl and profile update, then flash back to whatever ROM you're using(if not this one). Good luck!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mister7000:
I have never updated my profile or PRL since I got the phone flashed to Boost mobile.

Always thought it could mess up the service on the phone. Being that's flashed.

I'm in the New York area and the PRL on my phone is: 61007

It says mobile network type: EvDo rev A:8

Is that not the right PRL ?

Is it safety to try to update PRL on a flashed phone (I don't mean flashed ROM I mean sprint phone flashed to BoostMobile) ?

I was looking for the profile but don't know what that is.

Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
Hmmm, being that you flashed your phone, I'm honestly not 100% sure. But I didn't flash Sprint to Boost, I just switched carriers. My prl is 61009. If it was me, I'd try to update. But that's just me :). Or maybe try GB08? Or both...let me know what you decide. I'd be interested in seeing if it updated on a flashed phone(hence why I'd do it if it was me, in just curious like that :). Good luck! Don't forget to thank those that help you out along the way

I am being very cause as i have read through so many threads of people bricking their phones because of firmware/ or cwm updates.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boog316:
If you flashed that and it booted up... that's it. You should have an apk SuperUser or similar or just download an app like Titanium backup to check it. Other that, that's it...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
In the app drawer, look for the superuser or supersu as stated. To check root, download root checker from the play store. It's free! And have fun!

Try turning it on from the boot loader and see if that helps.

Do a soft reset while holding down the power button, once in boot loader mode press the Calender button.

BTW confirming you do have service, right!

[Nexus 10 General] Slin1402:
Hi all! That`s what i want talk about. In some themes I saw some interesting type of ROM. It is PACman ROM (I think you know or heard about it).

For others: this consist main features of Paranoid, AOKP and CM 10.

I was surprised, when I couldn`t find this ROM for our premium-class device.

I understand that there are not high amount of Nexus 10 owners, but we are ahead Android-comunity.

I believe that among you will found some developers who works with ROM`s. If here no such people maybe we collect some money and employ developers?

For example the main path required for ROM it integration in AOKP (a lot of features, functions and high stability) ParanoidAndroid - Settings (most wanted PA colors and DPI settings) and CM 10`s cifs.ko and utf8.ko (really working, on AOKP it doesn`t work) for mounting share or take this modules from last PA build, but I don't sure in it's efficiency.

And very important part - alleviate system (delete all wallpapers and other garbage, who need deleted apps can install it apart)

Also we can build in some interesting and important function - calibreting ROM at installing it (for example SuperSu or Superuser, install or not install some not needed system apps like Gtalk (in Russia and Ukraine it mostly doesn't uses, but it comfortable for you). We can choose what we want), Tablet, Phablet or Phone UI, Nav. Bar color, Nav. Bar button color and other that we can discus later.

I'm sorry for mistakes, I'm not english-man.

I'm (obviously) having severe difficulty trying to figure out how to install a custom recovery (specifically TWRP).

Instructions here just say "Install using your existing recovery like you would any other zip.". What does that even mean?? How does one use the existing recovery to install a zip?

When placed in root of internal or external SD, when I try to "apply an update" from stock recovery I get an error about verification failed. Same error if I rename it to update.zip. There's no option to turn verification off.

If I try to use GooManager it says successful, but then when I try to boot (vol up + pwr + home) it just takes me to the stock recovery. My device isn't rooted, maybe that matters?

Instructions here call upon a command that doesn't even exist—install zip from sdcard. Wrong device model?

I didn't have this kind of trouble on any other device (OG EVO, EVO 3D, Optimus V, TF300T). What am I supposed to do to install this recovery? I'd like to "use my existing recovery like I would any other zip"...any idea how to accomplish this?
