So far no lags (ex 1080p)

ROM is ok,

1. But thrs a small bug, when you call a contact from favorites, you will see a black screen with white border for few mili seconds before dialing. (no biggi).

2. Wifi strength seems low, but my xperia V pickup more signals in same location.

3. battery seems to drian soon. but still 2days in this rom, so it might get ok next week.

4. Now camera is good. it captures fast than ICS :)

5. Walkman Clear Phase, Clear Audio gives me awful sounds in loud speaker. err :mad:

6. Brightness is higher than before in 60%, which i normally use in ICS. But now using 40%.

7. 1080p lag. even with stabilizer off

Install was very painless. Love the new look of JB! Though i did get an H instead of the i suffix in lt28. :(
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hotrodnc:
If it's rooted you can change it back to lt28i in build.prop. :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] konstantinos3:
Any news for ROOTing method? :confused:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
No news. Everyone just needs to be patient as from what I have read code is being redone and allot of devices and firmwares are being added. So we all need to hang tight and everyone needs to make sure they are not bugging the devs who are here working on the devices in this thread.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] luisoman2000:
In the meantime you can use spectre's pre rooted roms for jb.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] konstantinos3:
can't because i don't know how to downgrade to ICS...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
You can use flashtool to flash back to a stock ICS ftf.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Captain Droid:
If you are stuck on Sony Logo, there is a possibility that your KERNEL is busted. You need to flash a new clean kernel preferably stock.

You need to disassemble the phone, then disconnect the battery cable and reconnect. This has to be done before you can do anything on your phone.

You have to reset the phone.

Follow this tutorial

it helped me big time, when i bricked my phone. See post 2.

PS: Use HIDE tag when posting logs.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Droiiiiiiiiid:
I was able to get the phone into flash mode using the Hard Reset. Attempting to flash the firmware in Flashtool results in "Ending flash session" and always gets hung up.

---------- Post added at 04:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:20 PM ----------

Seems like its really dead now. Wont even power to Sony screen. Wont charge when plugged in either. First time attempting to do something like this (updating unofficially) and I end up with a bricked phone!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Captain Droid:
What ROM you were previously on ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
Looks to me like your missing drivers or they did not install correctly.

Bummer but don't get to down as quite a few of us have had this issue. Look for the bricked thread in general and follow the steps. Or like has been said you can take it apart and undo the cable. You will get it going again though so don't fret to much.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Droiiiiiiiiid:
Stock AT&T.

---------- Post added at 05:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:40 PM ----------

So let me get this right:

I have 2 options:

Either A: Leave the phone on the charger until I get a steady Red LED (I had about 50% charge before the brick so how will this work exactly?)

or B: Take apart the phone and disconnect the battery cable? What exactly will this do to help me?

Right now my phone is completely bricked. Absolutely no response whatsoever to being plugged in, power button, vol buttons etc.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] luisoman2000:
keep calm and charge your phone. You will need to leave it charging for as long as it takes(Ive read about people who had the phone plugged in for a day till the solid red led appeared). Once you get the red led, flash it with flashtool with a rootable ICS ftf (it could be for the lt28i or h, doesnt matter), afterwards root, install cwm and flash spectre's rooted firm. then install cwm.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Jim-X:
This literally happened to me also, I'm on AT&T also, and I've somehow paperweighted my phoned.

Any luck with resets?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Droiiiiiiiiid:
No luck with resets. Im just gonna leave my phone on the charger until the magical red light appears. Luckily I have an iPhone 4s to hold me over as the guy who Im reading about which did the same thing said that it took 51 hours for that light to appear.....
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Droiiiiiiiiid:
What does it mean when you get the red LED for about 7 seconds and then black again? This has been happening repeatedly for the last 20 some odd minutes
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
Okay to all of you having the issue hear my warning " The more you mess with it the longer it will take" so put it on the charger and leave it alone. Eventually it will get to a point where it will boot loop the Sony screen. So like I and other have said just leave it and follow the instructions in the soft brick thread in the general section.

For what it is worth I know of only one true hard bricked Ion on XDA. One of the original devs was trying something and bricked his but he knew the risk before hand of what he was trying. If it will give you a light it can be fixed. It took me 36 hours before I got mine running again.

Another thing is never try to flash with less than 60% battery as it will lose big chunks of power during a flash.

SD card stuff missing?

Did anybody else get stuff deleted from their SD card when they flashed the JB firmware using CWM?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bwyan Benton:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] luisoman2000:
No way to root yet. Only way to root is to flash spectres prerooted rom (you must be on ICS ROOTED rom with cwm) and then use flashtool to flash jellybean kernel.

Jelly bean update

Hi to all, i want to know how can i downgrade xperia ion Jelly bean to ics cause i tried to do it by flashtool and it keeps rebooting after the AT&T logo, my phone is an LT28AT, i upgrade the phone via flashtool with the LT28i firmware.

Hope you can help me!!! thanx
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hotrodnc:
Did you make sure you checked all the "wipe " settings? I'm still kind of new to this as well, but that's the first thing I would check.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ernesto-galdamez:
HI, we all are new at this and yes i checked all the wipe settings, i did the flash succesfully but when i turn on my phone it reboots after the at&t logo so i upgrade to Jelly bean again.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hotrodnc:
Did you try flashing a generic international firmware? I personally prefer the LT28i 6.1.E.3.7 firmware over the AT&T firmware. Especially with the noisy AT&T boot animation. Other than that I don't really have any ideas.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ernesto-galdamez:
thanks for the reply... Not really, i tried to flashing the at&t firmware to take it to his "factory image" lol, i didnt know if its going to work with the international firmware flash cause of the BOOTLOADER locked do you think it could work?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hotrodnc:
You can flash any of the Stock firmwares with a locked bootloader :) I have the same phone, I was running it off of 6.1.E.3.7 before I flashed over to 6.2.B.0.211 about 24 hours ago. I was waiting on CWM to come out for it so I could do nandroid backups :)

Edit: For a list of flashable firmwares, go here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=28302842&postcount=1
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ernesto-galdamez:
Thanks again :) By any chance do you have the international firmware for jelly bean?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hotrodnc:
Actually, this is better: http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Sony_Xperia_ion Go to the "Stock Firmwares" section and all of those are able to be flashed. Remember when flashing a LT28h firmware to exclude baseband, otherwise LTE won't work. If you forget to exclude baseband, take an ICS LT28i/at firmware and flash with everything unchecked except for "flash baseband" and that will restore LTE functionality.

Edit: If you're looking to have root on your phone, flash ICS, root, install CWM, and flash a prerooted firmware. CWM is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1830170
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ernesto-galdamez:
Actually thats what i did to update the jelly bean firmware, the exclude baseband option and it works great but i was thinking about getting back to the factory att image to wait the official sony pc companion update but thats like a legend lol.

Again thanks my friend to take the time to answer my doubts!

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] konstantinos3:
Is it possible to flash the prerooted JB on the stock JB that i have already flashed???
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] jtr165:
yeah seriously...I went back and only flashed an ICS baseband over JB the other night on about 15% charge...definitely semi-bricked it, even though the flash went off in less than 5 seconds...the bright green flash mode LED light was permanently on no matter what i did...holding the power button did nothing, volume up and power button, nothing...etc...

so i just went to bed haha...and luckily the light was out when i woke up...plugged the phone in, charged for about 2 hours...and it turned on like nothing ever happened after the charge...

so not positive what happened...but it was definitely related to messing with it when it was nearly dead...

Rough translation of instructions.

Drop box link to skip the few steps needed to dl this file.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106774623/vRoot.exe

Make sure you go into settings and go to Developer options and turn usb debugging on, then go into security and turn unknown sources on.

Some tips- once you are rooted go to playstore and download busy box THEN OPEN IT. After that go back to the webpage and download the CWM6 folder, extract it to desktop and then click the cwm-install-en.

To get rid of the stock Superuser app after root-

Go to playstore and install either superuser or supersu and open either one.

Once you install make sure they are up to date or this will not work! For superuser go to Info then tap to update where it says tap to update.

Next install rootbrowser lite and go to System> Apps and find Superuser that has the blue icon like the Vietnamese one has and long press it, go to delete and then you're all set. You have root with an english version of superuser

Odd facebook bug

Found another bug, but im not sure if it's more related to the facebook app itself. Sometimes when i'm using the app the phone just freezes and takes a while respond. During the freeze nothing works, no capacitive keys, power button does nothing but you can turn off the phone with the vol up+ power button combo.

If I flash this version onto my phone and my carrier (Rogers) finally puts out the official update for my phone will it tell me the update is available or will it think I've already upgraded, because once it comes out I would like the proper version on my phone.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hotrodnc:
I think your carrier will send you a notification to upgrade when they get their hands on the firmware for OTA. :)

Don't take my word on that though...that's just what AT&T does. I don't know about Rogers.

Have you flashed it on your LT28at? (Assuming you have one)

Question for everyone. Does the LTE still work if you flash this on the LT28at?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] thanitos:
When you flash it just exclude baseband
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] jtr165:
yes, LTE works perfectly fine with the LT28h .211 JB firwmare on an LT28AT and AT&T's network...been using it for over a month with no issues...PC companion will not work for this firmware though...PC companion will still see the phone as an LT28, but when you search for updates, or try a repair or something...you'll be told 'we do not have any software for your device'...

just use flashtool...it takes just a couple of minutes...

although, recently...and this has nothing to do with LTE...but my GPS has started crashing the phone like crazy...not just a force close of maps or my gps status app...like screen fades and the phone reboots...I noticed this started happening when maps got the big UI update over a week ago, but thought it was just the update...and it didn't happen with after i rolled the update back to the older google maps...

but as of yesterday...it happens all the time...tracks, gps status, maps, anything that uses gps crashes the phone...has anyone else noticed this with jelly bean on an LT28at? So far a full reset hasn't fixed it...and wiping cache in flashtool hasn't worked either...just finishing a full reflash and i'll see...

I was having issues with losing my LTE and I have found that a bunch of un-needed files where being backed up by the Sony back up. My suggestion to anyone that has strange issues is use Titanium or something like it to back up your apps. Then manual install then on a clean JB.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] boredzter:
Thanks, I excluded baseband and deleted all the data so I could do a clean install, I only have one problem though. I can't use Mobile data. At all. Wifi is fine and I am paying for 2GB of data from AT&T, but everytime I turn mobile data on, nothing happens. And I do have it set to LTE preferred. Mobile data doesn't shut itself off, it stays on, just no data.
