No Bravia engine 2

No stamina mode like Xperia p

Poor camera quality and lags in 1080p video recording

No white balanced settings even every Xperia s display is yellowish :( white balanced make our Xperia s display realy improved and yellowish screen vanished
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
First two points are not disadvantages. They are just features not added by Sony.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] PLovrin:
Disadvantage is only 1080p recording for me.

Battery life is amazing so no need for stamina: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=42046505&postcount=1646
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MarkMRL:
Only disadvantage is 1080p video recording, and shutdown time which is a bit slower than before. Everything else is improved compared to ICS.

The camera has always been like this. Learn to use the advanced options to take better pics.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ItBankRock:
On my Acro S same, 1080p is WAYYY too laggy

Backup and restore app didn't restore SOME OF my games' progress, like Temple Run 2... anybody here with the same issue?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] FenrirMX:
That's not Stamina mode, that's Extendended Standby Mode. [You'd think this was obvious.]

As the names would suggest, they're different things
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
Nope. The fundamentals are the same. Extended Standby Mode blocks all data to your apps after 10 minutes while Stamina Mode let you choose which apps to block or not block. Other than that, there's no differences.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] remmyhi:
Same issue. Went back to ICS. Theres a possibility to patch the email.apk. Investigating.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hugorafael:
Performance wise the firmware is great, but they did not fix the bugs that we found on the first leaked version.

For e.g. Default keyboard settings does not hold up after reboot, i have to set up SwiftKey everysingle time i restart, also, admin privileges for a specific app are also not being saved, my kaspersky antitheft simply does not work because of this.

I do not understand why myXperia was not added.

When the leaked version came up i really thought sony did a nice job, but the more i use, the more it seems that they released it just to shut our pie holes

Do you guys think these are fixable on a custom rom?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Marsou77:
Try to use backup and restore app from ICS. It's better than JB one ;)

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
So the only major bug people reported is 1080p recording.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] alex.sg:
Well, that's not very helpful. It is like you keep you data/Wi-Fi connection off when you are not using it. I already do that. I do not need a program to turn them off for me.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
There's no need to feedback here. Tell that to Sony. Personally I find it helpful as I do not turn off my 3G during sleep. I still get SMS and extra battery life.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] jacker60:
Have these same problem with keyboard

I have these problem too, I made a clean install using SEUS, i believe that if you just update with PCC this bug its not present...

There are a lot of bugs.....

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
I clearly said major bugs. Those minor bugs are doesn't affect functionality and most users will not notice them.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] jacker60:
Uhm, well yes the video lag its important, I believe that your widgets dissapear every time you reboot the phone its important too, or you keyboard too, and at some point when you take a photograph and see a purple tint will notice too :p... just time, have already order the important and no important bugs
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
I did a impromptu test and my widget didn't vanish. Keyboard isn't important, most users uses stock. And it's extremely early here, will test the purple tint accusation later.

The only bug which affect functionality: 1080p video.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] jacker60:
Well that's why I said some, I have tested with a few, Beatiful Widgets dissapear, power toggles in other case didn't vanish at all, soundhound widget stays there too, another widget that dissapear for me its "homework" where I kept my schedule of my classes, will try a new fresh install and see what happens.

The purple tint its reported in my thread, and also found these one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2303851

Already try it, no matter what app camera you use, its present most of the times :(
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:
Hence, since only some widget disappear, it is not a major bug.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Ehablageen:
hahaha i didn't blame anyone :confused: i know this firmware that i have downloaded is not for my region and i'm ok with it because i fixed the wifi issue

you can ask someone else who used pc companion :good:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mehdicvl:
As I told before, there are two problems!

First, using ME or M unlocker needs a root Rom! (not a problem for me but maybe for the others)

Second, in a place with weak mobile signal quality causes problem and you have to restart the application time to time! :(

Be polite! It's a professional forum not a place to laugh!

Another one bug: Ive connected my phone with my in-car audio entertainment and i played music (so far everything worked fine), but since then, afted i switched my phone off the system, I still can see notification saying that it is connected. When i want to play music now nothing happens, no music as it thinks music comes out through the cable (but my phone is not connected to any device now). Bugs happens, so Ive restarted my phone and surprisingly it says im still connected to in-car audio entertainment (same icon as playing music through earphones) and again cannot play music. Restart didnt help, now im making reinstalation via PC Companion. It has to help, no doubts, but it shows me how full of bugs this version of jb is.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mehdicvl:
I think there are a lot of huge bugs in notification bar!

Hi, I just had a new HTC ONE, it's CID is ORANG202.

I want to get rid of all orange stuff and bloatware.

I wonder wheter or not i can flash a HTC_EUROPE ROm in it.

Of course due to different CIDs and the fact t'here s no possibilit of changing CID os SOFFing the device I know i can't use htc ruu.

Anyway, I did unlock bootloader and Installed CWM and rooted the device. Can I flash now a original HTC europ (not orange rom) via CWM. I know i won t get OTA update, but who cares, as soon as a new update will be available, i'll find the rom here.

nd how to flash with CWM given the fact that the device has no SDCARD ? I always did that from SDs in the past.

Thanks for any answers.

Wish a Good day to everyone.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matt:
Yeah you can. Download it onto your phone, go to CWM, install zip, install zip from sdcard (internal) and choose your download folder where it will be.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrTweety:
Thanks for answer. And this is coing to work despite of the fact my phone is orang202 and not the rom ? Which means I m looking forward to see the pure android rom without sense.

Without sense makes sense :)

And, by the way, still no way to change cid ?

I m sure changing cid would allow me to use ruu s from HTC an ever get OTA...

I think you cant change the cid since we dont have s-off by now.
[General Questions and Answers] chuSmu:
Hello there,

I got a problem with installing Open Pdroid on my Galaxy s I9000. Its rooted and running on CM 10.1.0-RC2 and Android 4.2.2.

The thing is, I can't figure out what exactly I am doing wrong.

I used Kobik77's ApG to create the update.zip and restore.zip and had no further issues with it.

On my phone I entered CWM and installed the .zip without any error.

I installed PDroid Manager via Google Play.

So far so good. But now PDroid Manager says: "The PDroid Core has not been detected on your device."

As of now I am not sure whether the patching Process via ApG has been a failure, something went wrong

when installing it via CWM, the PDroid Manager has been buggy, or none of it and I just missed

some detail, like the version I am using is not supported (though I am pretty sure I read somewhere that 4.2.2 and CM 10.1 are supported).

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Edit: my problem has slightly changed. PDroid manager now always asks me to configure it when i install a new app. But when i attempt to do so, it says: "PDroid Manager has been closed."

When i open PDroid manager via the apps icon it still tells me that open pdroid Installation cannot be detected.

- If there is any additional information u need, I'll gladly provide it.

- I hope this is the right place to post it.. I already tried to post in

the dev forum (permission denied) where an information kindly

directed me here :D.

- And one last thing .. go easy on me I am new to smartphones

in general and have only aquired some basic knowledge through

reading.

[General Questions and Answers] SimonTS:
Hadn't seen these posts before, sorry.

You are only flashing the update.zip file, and not the restore.zip as well?

I use ApG to build openDroid for my LG 4X HD and it works fine.
[General Questions and Answers] chuSmu:
Hello, first of all thanks for the reply! Yes i only flash the update zip. Flashing the the restore zip would defeat the purpose right?
[General Questions and Answers] chuSmu:
Any other ideas?
[General Questions and Answers] SimonTS:
I can't think of anything obvious that would cause this. Are you running the stock Kernel? I would suggest trying a totally clean install of CM with the .zip file you created by ApG. Don't install anything other than the pDroid Manager and test it again. If it's still not working then try with a newer version of CM, possibly the latest nightly for your device.
[General Questions and Answers] chuSmu:
Actually i have no idea if i run the stock kernal, as I said, I am pretty new to smartphones.

"3.0.76-gc0a8d45

build02@cyanogenmod #1"

..is what it says in the phone's settings. Doesn't sound like a stock to me.

I will install the latest nightly build first and try it again. If possible i want to avoid to go through the trouble

of reinstalling all my apps. Seems like I have to find a good backup solution earlier than expected if I

want to keep as much of my data as possible >.<

Well thanks again for taking the time to deal with my problem!
[General Questions and Answers] SimonTS:
The kernel sounds stock - if you don't remeber flashing a different kernel then you're fine. If you're that worried about losing your apps then just flash the latest nightly and use ApG on that version to try - but do a NanDroid backup of everything first, just in case.
[General Questions and Answers] chuSmu:
OK i screwed and bricked my phone :D Anyway i managed to try a few things:

I flashed latest CM nightly and tried to get Open PDroid via the update zip from ApG --> failed

I did factory reset and wiped the cache / did a clean install of ONLY (I just tried randome stuff here) the update zip --> failed

I did factory reset and wiped cache / did a clean istall of latest CM nightly, rebooted and installed the ApG update zip --> failed

Each time the PDroid Manager wasn't able to detect a, in my case Open PDroid, installation.

I noticed that it took especially long to initiate the download of PDroid Manager, I mean the bar before the actual download starts. It took a few minutes until sth. happened. Though i doubt it has anything to do with, I just wondered if it may be conflicting with anything in the system. But probably just due to the reset.

I am getting desperate here :D

Well anyway.. I may have done a mistake,but realized it too late: Did u mean to install without the gapps? .. I did install CM with gapps...

If I was meant to install CM without gapps i will try that tomorrow!

If any different ideas come to mind.. I will try anthing else too.

thanks again..
[General Questions and Answers] chuSmu:
Hey, my phone's fixed and my problem changed a little, but i dont know if i it is any

progress.

PDroid Manager still displays the same message, that Open PDroid core could not be

detected, but whenever i istall a app now, it asks me to configure it.

When i press the button in the status bar, where it appears, it just says: "PDroid Manager has

been closed".

So basically i can't do anything with it, but it sometimes tells me it's there :D

any suggestions?

If OpenPdroid isn't working, have you tried Pdroid2.0? It's not the best solution, but it is one.
[General Questions and Answers] chuSmu:
Thanks for your reply. I might actually try that. I'd really like to get open pdroid working though or at least understand why it doesn' t. So if there are some other solutions i'll be happy to hear about them.
[General Questions and Answers] SimonTS:
I've been offline for a few days so am only just catching up on stuff. Given the problem you are now having, I'd suggest run ApG and copy the entire text output from the log. Post that along with a description of the problem you're having onto the ApG Dev thread, and also a logcat if you can.
[General Questions and Answers] chuSmu:
Hi SimonTS thanks for directing me to the dev forum. I got my Problem fixed. The reason it didnt work is pretty embarassing though :D.

I had a old version of apg and/or the open pdroid Version that comes with it. everything works just fine now. Thanks for your efforts.
[General Questions and Answers] capfirepants:
Why don't you post the solution here? It might help someone else.

Edit: Sorry my bad, I just can't read :p
[General Questions and Answers] chuSmu:
:D

But actually i could add that the update function of apg somehow didnt work properly. I had to check the logs to find out. Reinstalling apg fixed it for me. Hope it helps :)
[General Questions and Answers] capfirepants:
What do you mean by reinstalling? It dosen't need to be installed....
[General Questions and Answers] chuSmu:
It kinda does. Even though the apg.exe itself doesnt need to be installed. The Java and cygwin it needs to run properly need an Installation. Its handled by the apg.exe though.

By reinstalling i meant deleting those packages and download them via apg again.

Sorry if my previous post was misleading.
