I have problems with fb notifications too, and I realized its not JB's fault, but Facebook's. Google it and youll find a few fixes. I haven't tried all but I couldn't get mine fixed
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
No I typed everything manually. It would never happen to me on ICS
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Lord Takyon:
The only issue I really have is the power button does not always wake screen/phone up.

Other than that the Rom is great.

Sent from my Sony Xperia S via transwarp conduit.

I'v done a repair via PC Companion but my pics and mp3 files are still there... Shoul I do now a factory reset or formate memory or it's not necessary to do that?

2G problem - set net.ppp0.dns1=8.8.8.8 and net.ppp0.dns2=8.8.4.4 in build.prop Should help. Connection establishment takes still longer than on ICS, but at least works...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bobeobi:
Bug: Broken LED, in ICS it was like this: rare blue flash for SMS/Calls, Rapid Green for Gtalk msg, social networks, and Rare White for Whatsapp.

Now it's only Rare White flash for everything, like it was with Arc S and 4.0.1 - the LED was completely broken
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] blakwhite:
Is this an absolute solution? I had tried dns setting applications but none worked. I then returned to ICS.

The internet only didn't work when it jumped to 2g with low connection; after it changed to 3g, it worked again. And since the phone had an IP, I suspected that it was something to do with the dns but nada.

I hope someone finds a solution for it, either within the kernel or the firmware. It might take some time till another upgrade.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kubekpop:
I need some ppl to test it. DNS set via app have some problems, once it works then it doesn't. Now I am on DNS set in build.prop and it works. But I am afraid it will stop working in the least expected moment as it was with settings via Rom Toolbox... But for last hour it works without any problems...

And if we have wrong DNS then why 3G/HSPA works? Why sometimes edge works 1 time taking a speed test and then stops and doesn't even want to repeat test? Really weird...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] beniamin24:
There is no fastcharge and yes i made a factory resset :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] spontigo:
On mine (Xperia SL) the LED notifications seems to be bugged

- Rare white flash for Gmail, Hangouts (instead of the green one)

- Whatsapp notification LED works perfect (i can choose the color without any problem) but it doesn't vibrate

- There's no blue flash for missed calls and sms
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Jackmax32:
I noticed just one bug --Shaggy 1080p video recording..

I don't know why other people arr experiencing so many bugs.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ConorCX:
On topic, do you this that this update has many bugs that would get in the way/affect a UK user? Has anyone else flashed the global ftf from an operator branded phone?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
Of course. If there's a few trolls who felt that the change of LED colour is a serious bug that requires immediate attention, you can imagine how much more nonsense is going to sprout here.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] blakwhite:
Yes, very weird. It might be some wrong kernel code related though.

I won't be able to test this for a week but would be happy to read the results.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
Anyways, there are not many bugs.

If you use your camera often, I suggest you not to upgrade till a fix comes. That's the only major bugs that affects functionality.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] SxperiaS:
I found a bug it is a bit difficult to explain.

In the stock SMS app, when i type a message with accents (ex: á) it uses to many characters and it requires to send 2 messages.

However if i use handcent this doesn't happen, same if i copy the message from handcent and paste into the stock message app.

Language: Portuguese Language
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ConorCX:
I can understand the frustration. I do use my camera quite often, so I think I'll wait it out until (or if) Sony releases a new update & I'll probably flash it then (I have given up all hope on my operator O2-UK getting a Jelly Bean update out anytime soon). Thanks!

Does anyone use Snapdragon Battery Guru app? Is it good for battery saver or it's better to only use extended battery mode in phone?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Th3DON:
Confirmed bug: plProblems with 'Facebook inside Xperia'

When you tries to sync, it'll stuck in the authentication at the browser.

Just found another bug while reading this thread, when your WiFi connection cuts off, the notification says 'Wi-Fi connection is available'
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MarkMRL:
Only bugs found here are the laggy video recording and of course the missing stamina. Everything else is ok here, using DoomLord rooted zip.

Some things that are not nice though are the home launcher which is kinda laggy and stuttering (like in ICS) and that the home redraws often.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kima_car:
...

I'v done a repair via PC Companion and I have a volupe up problem again... It's definitely a firmware problem...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MaxPayne3004:
I used Snapdragon and I have not found a big improvement, I think extended is better but no miracle ^^
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] jacker60:
All of these confirmed many times, thanks for the feedback, that shows that its not only "few phones related" with these bugs

Many people started reporting these, will add it :good:

Yes, we have different problems, but many problems repeat a lot of times, have you read all the thread? because I read it everyday, all the bugs that are in the topic have at least 3 or more reports of the bug, so I dont see a inconsistency there... anothers are just one or two, at the moment those I think are caused by another reasons, but who knows...

Doesn't have this problem at all with Xperia S

Bugs that are from apps will not be considered in the main thread :p, as you say its a bug from the play store apps, not for the firmware itself

BTW Backup & Restore app works, but at least doesnt let you do a backup of apps downloaded form the market in the internal memory, this is specified in the main thread, clear already app data

Very interesting, as you said its mainly with paid apps, free widgets always stay there, annoying anyway, besides Galaxy SII of my sister doesn't show that behavior :eek: she has JB too, I dont know... a little weird for me

Only one time using the camera

I dont think that the rest of the bugs are negligible, a lot of users are reporting them, maybe could be just a little bugs, but for some are annoying, just because maybe doesnt affect you, doesnt mean that are disposable, many of these bugs are reported at least 2 or more times, so its affecting some of us

I dont believe this is a bug, just they change the color of the LED for notifications :p

The same from above, don't believe that there is a bug, just a change in the LED, the whatsapp vibration notification its already aware of that, but I believe its more fault of the whatsapp itself app

These is because special characters, accents and symbols like ñ or "¬" are special and its counted in a different way, if you copy and paste maybe the app doesn't count it, but your operator will do :p

Walkman update music info. issue

I found a glitch of updating music info in walkman.

When I tried rename, cut, or copy any music file in ES File Explorer on my phone, after that, Walkman will deny downloading the music info with an immediate message says "no album art or track information found".

I am not sure whether other file manager apps will cause the same issue.

I guess it refers to some cache files of walkman and googled some posts as well. Someone said it should delete following folders:

/sdcard/Android/data/com.sonyericsson.music/

/sdcard/Android/data/com.android.providers.media/

However it does not solve the problem: Walkman re-scans the music files but it still refuses to update the info through net.

At last I have to copy all files to my computer and then over write them on phone..... it works :silly:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lewis021:
I don't know. But happened to me when I was on ICS. Does it happen recently?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
Happens all the time on .200 JB with me:(

Also, Walkman sometimes becomes really buggy.. Basically there is a problem with the layout of most apps.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lewis021:
I'm using a pre-rooted ROM. Did you wipe?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
Flashed the FTF by Zhuhang. Wiped everything and currently using DoomKernel:D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lewis021:
I don't know. But I didn't do anything else with my ROM.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] grgana:
Guys do you have superior auto feature in camera app on JB .200 or not?

I dont have it, im worried but not shure if its a bug or normal?

And the little thunder icon next to battery precentage [like its charging but phone is not connected to charger]on lock screen not on stat.bar when battery go below 15% ? Greets
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
Superior Auto is not included in this update. The little lightning is normal and it warns you it's a great time to plug me in the charger. Btw, you can't see thunder :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] grgana:
Big thax for answer :) i can see it, i was not shure if its a bug or not, solved!

New feature when writing a message and using pen and hold on him a loop appears
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] jaxzkeren:
hi, mobile data sometimes is so slow .....

for example, when instal apk from market, it's just downloading ... but not install . Or when i open kakaotalk, the loading of the picture is slow ( about 1 minute, in ICS there is no lag / no problem )

i did clean instal with SUS, so i guess maybe because of junk apps the system is slow .....so i instal prerooted jb from doomlord, and remove unnecesary bloatware .....but the problem still persist ...

is this known bug ? any way to solve this problem ?

thanks ....
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MarkMRL:
I found a small bug with the timescape widgets. If you add them to your home, then clear data in Xperia Home, and then try to add them again, it will say that the widget was already added, even though they aren't there. To add them you have to find them in the app list and clear data.

can't disable auto-sync
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
You guys should research before posting...

It's here at accounts...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] xminirom:
I Flashed it to see what happens. Disappointing very disappointing. I didn't expect something like that from SONY. Moreover When I flashed MY SL it said to restart phone. I restart it - SONY logo came - Then exclamation icon with settings like icon on it with a blue bar below, it filled then- boot screen....... What just happened between sony logo and boot screen? can any one tell me? It happens all time when i restart.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] sonus:
So what's the word on this update? Should I even bother flashing it? Or should I wait for the bugs to (hopefully) get fixed by Sony?

My main issue with ICS was speed (or rather lack of speed). I could constantly see screens being redrawn/populated. And now to make things even worse, every once in a while I have to wait 2 minutes for random apps to start... this even includes starting a phone call . I'm guessing a ROM flash or a full reset might help. But these bugs seem pretty unacceptable given the amount of time it took for Sony to produce this update.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
Jelly Bean comes with speed. It is close to perfection. If you do not frequent 1080p recoding, it is perfect for you.

Just remember to wipe data to get the fullest experience.

You know what? If I could, I will give 2 tight slaps. The part where you talk about "disappointment" is totally useless and not needed. One slap. And the blue icon appears if you previously flashed all those whatever ROMs and didn't wipe data. Stop blaming Sony for your mistakes. Wipe data before flash if you have custom ROMs or have those weird mods installed.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] chifosu:
I meant that you can't disable auto-sync for one or all the accounts without deleting them and re-add when i want to turn on.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
You can. Go into the specific account and play with the options there.

Google services draining the battery.. And preventing it to deep sleep.

I am not the only one.

And it is probably a Sony problem as my Samsung has no problems with Google services
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
http://www.intomobile.com/2013/05/2...ates-version-4110-fixes-battery-draining-bug/

Hey wait:

https://www.google.com.sg/search?q=...k+battery+drain&aq=0&oq=google+framwork+drain

Seems like only the S4 is not suffering from it. I managed to get into deep sleep. 3% drop only. Impressive job Sony!

Those who got battery drain, download Play Store 4.1.10, it should help.

There's an option to do a fresh install. It is called "Factory Data Reset".

Post reported.

It's your fault you ignore "Factory Data Reset" option. You are shooting yourself on your foot.

Only major bug is the 1080p bug. You guys at XDA have a habit of sprouting stuff like "The change in LED notification colour from blue to white is a serious bug" or "My update isn't ready, so I flashed someone else's FTF, and my 2G is not working" (Please wait for your official variant to come).
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] HellRoot:
Thanks.. Should it not update play store by itself?

If it works it will be great... Will see if I can find it :)

Thanks again and you are the man :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
No. Play Store update is country by country. The latest for mine is 4.1.6. Just Google around. Im confident you will be able to find it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] darkerm:
is the video lag bug fixed yet? this is the only thing that holding me to update form ics :(

can anyone one tell me a Stock rom that is the Generic version+ Rooted+ Deodex + bug fixed? I want offical rom with nothing removed but more added tweaks and error/bug free.

Can some one help?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ItBankRock:
Facebook app is laggy (scrolling, transitions, etc.). I know the app sucks(full of bugs) but it worked pretty smooth with ICS firmware.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Late Scapegoat:
Hi,

I'm using GoSMS for messaging and I can't have vibration along with sound when I receive a message... Seems that this is the same issue as the one reported for Whatsapp.

I also have microphone malfunctions, (very) laggy video recording, purple tint in photos taken with flash.

Home screen often has to redraw when leaving applications...

Scrolling in some apps like WeChat has become sluggish, it was smooth on ICS.

I now have to set the proxy in Wifi and APN for Adblock to work with error notification.

Something which I can't say for sure if it was here before or not: If I use my phone while recharging (with the Sony charger), the battery still goes down, and pretty fast actually! Is that normal??

All in all a disapointing work from Sony, absolutely not up to the satus of flagship that the Xperia S was supposed to be when I bought it.

Surely my last phone from this company.

I'm having an annoying bug when I have music playing through the AUX port.

Hangout not connecting

Anyone having problem with Hangouts? It's not signing in, saying "couldn't reach google". Any solutions?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Xadious:
This is for the Xperia S. Anyone else experience higher battery drain in IDLE mode?

If i have data/gps off and just wifi on, i get about 1.33% drain per hour of no use. Before in idle mode it was about 0.75% per hour with data+wifi on.

Also, for some reason i'm not getting the blue light notification when i receive texts. Instead, after a long delay i now get a white blink that seems to blink more slowly than the blue one, so it's easy to miss (blinks seem more spaced out). Not sure why it changed from blue to white :confused: I didn't even know the light could change to white.

Edit: Also, Gmail notification light is now white also. Before Gmail notification was green while SMS was blue, now both are white :silly:

Confirm 2G bug

I can confirm this 2G Bug. In my office there's no 3G around and I don't get internet access via 2G. This bug seems to be cell dependent because in another area I got 2G access :eek:.

The solution above at least doesn't work for me. I added the two lines to the build.prop and rebooted, no change :(

And yes, my apn is correctly configured, all other mobile access variants as 3G, HSDPA work flawlessly.

All of this happens in Germany using the Telekom network.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mrkidvn:
someone plz test, go to dialer and dial, *#*#SERVICE#*#* -> service test -> total time call, mine is unknow but in ICS i can know exactly the total time i've called.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Strayckler:
Yep, same
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] jacker60:
I sont have this problem in windows, it works normally :p

Superior Auto as already someone told you its not included in this JB upgrade :D

now it just come as "google ubication service" it says there "Wi FI data" so you are not missing nothing :highfive:

Yes you can, each app has his own autosync option, even just parts of an app like gmail account you can disable contacts sync and leave the rest on

these happen to me only the first time, its normal after an updgrade, but if tihs happen to you every time you reboot, you had someting wrong, do a factory reset :D

There are no need for being sarcastic, I agree with you that some reports from the LED for example sometimes are absurd, but apart from the 1080p bug, at least some bugs are there, for example the 2G not working, why before was working in ICS excellent? with the same variant of the software, its weird for me, the other bugs maybe are not important but need attention, in the main thread I'm not considering apps that now are not working correctly, even the LED "bug" (for me its not a bug, just new feature) its not being considered.... just the important things, and all the bugs in the Main thread have at least 2 or more people confirming it

Since ICS its laggy and slow, thats fault facebook app, not sony firmware, try to erase data, and will be ok (but just for a while)

Try do a clean install to solve the micro problem, when upograde from ICS seems that the micro gets sometimes broken, about the battery I didn't notice these, curios to see that other app apart form whatsapp doesnt vibrate when you receive a message, thanks!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] BoSib:
What I miss exactly is the possibility to have my phone connect to my WiFi automatically when I get home without leaving WiFi on all day.. So yes I still miss it! :crying: :highfive:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] macgloom:
I can confirm the microfone bug. Neither Google Now nor the included Voice Note app nor the included speech detection can access the microfone. That only happens after some time of uptime. The first minutes/hours it works. ( havent found a system yet) Reboot helps temporarily.

Also when trying to record video (also 720p) it fails with error "Unknown Error", but only if other microfone-accessing apps also fail to record audio.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bobeobi:
Can confirm 2G Data bug also, it's almost unusable, 3G works fine
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] skip0pot2mus:
is it just me or is the quick launch bug back?!

Also, lost mobile data two hours ago, no amount of reboots or airplane modes is fixing it!

It's not the network, I know that.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Th3DON:
No luck for me. Although Network messages appear for no reason
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Why So Serious?:
For the guys with the 2g bug... how many of you updated via PC Companion or SUS, and how many of you flashed a .ftf that wasn't necessarily from your region?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
India's update definitely haven't rolled yet. Source:talk.Sonymobile.com Those you got an update is probably holding an import set or previously flashed a FTF.

With my unlocked bootloader I flashed the DooMLoRD's prerooted ROM

I tried Emma today, but for my german phone it offers .45 ICS only.

SUS comes with this:

That means, devices has a modified firmware that couldn't be updated.

Has someone from Germany got JB by using Emma or SUS with

unlocked

bootloader?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] peymayesh:
Some options on Developer options, uncheck when rebooting.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bobeobi:
It's very interesting indeed, flashed via Flashtool myself, not my region
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Salinaa:
Updated it via DoomKernels rooted version, not Sony Update. (Austria)

Did the following and 3G is staying/coming back (and I don't need 2G anyway)

"Settings -> Network/More -> Networks -> Networkmode -> and changed it to WCDMA (3G) only"

It instantly closed the buggy 2G version which was not working and got 3G connection. May not be a solution for all the 2G users, but as I nearly always have 3G and never use 2G this was a perfect solution for me.

Hope this helps!

At least Sony recognizes 2G problem as a problem as it is not always reproducible, that's the good news.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Gloris:
not 100% sure, but I think that the volume up button getting stuck may be linked to clearphase somehow....since i've turned clearphase off, i haven't had this issue again, whereas before i had too restart the phone a couple of times a day because the button just stopped working.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] electrash:
I use clearphase, only thing im not using is clearaudio, it bring much distorzion to music.

I think i don't have that kinda problem with button either.
