?

I searched the forums but didnt find a specific tool persay.

#I have adb but how am i too use it in relation to acquiring my MSL..
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Did that tool not work? Why haven't you posted in that thread?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Bdadd34:
I have had problems flashing and restoring Roms both stk and aosp. By problems I mean getting stuck at boot screen after flash and backups failing at data and if restored without data stuck at boot. The only remedy I have found is a total internal memory wipe. I have tried many wiping techniques none worked long term. Last night when I had these problems again before I did full internal data wipe I used twrp file manager and looked around and notice after factory reset wipe which is suppose to wipe all data but data/media I still had data/app and when I tried to manually erase it failed. even with system mounted I couldn't delete. Maybe someone else having troubles can also check to see if data/app is still there after wipe. I dont know if its recovery related or caused by the aosp sd format. Maybe a combination? I don't think im the only one having these problems so I wanted to start a thread to try to figuer this out. Any help is greatly appriciated.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
yeah just happened to me just now too dammit... tried to restore my lifeless backup to update prl and profile... restore went fine but i get the lg logo flash then blacjk screen....going to try again but damn this is one issue that need resolving.. usually i have no problems which is weird cause im not doing anything different maybe been couple weeks since my last restore to lifeless using same backup that wont work now
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Bdadd34:
I'm going to try deleting data/app before booting to recovery when I flash from now on to see if it helps. I think something to do with the size of that folder is corrupting data in recovery as it seems to happen only when I run a rom for a few days adding apps. If I flash right away it works fine.

spleef..If you can check data/ folder from twrp before wiping internal data...I wonder if the data/app is from backup or previous rom as I believe it is being corrupted to not be wipable.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
I'm seeing this happen to a lot of people and I don't understand why. I've been flashing all the ROMS and restoring from backups for months now with no issues. Maybe I just got a lucky phone.

Maybe this will help many of you.

In TWRP 2.5.0.0

Click Wipe

Swipe to Factory Reset

Back button to the Wipe menu

Advanced Wipe

Tick all 4--

Dalvik

System

Data

cache

Back to main TWRP menu and restore/install

Like I said, I've had no issues doing it this way. May the Force be with you. ;)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Bdadd34:
thanks for the advice but I have wiped every which way including rebooting recovery after wipe before installing..no luck

I think it started from initially wiping internal memory and reloading data from pc backup to get rid of the aosp stuff on the sd card..

My advice to anyone else who wants the sd card back to stock is to leave it alone.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] spleef:
normally i have no problems going back and forth.... want to hear something even weirder.... restored my aokp and it booted into lifeless.... now either i restored lifeless again...which us possible big fingers and always in a hurry... or something very funny going on in my recovery i am on the older version 2.4.4 i think it is haven't updated it yet cause of all the issues people are having and the different wipe area... just seems weird top me but guess its time to do it and at least see if it will help
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Bdadd34:
OK this is crazy...deleted data/app with ROM manager root browser..then entered recovery wiped everything in advanced wipe..system..both caches and data..then rebooted recovery checked data\ there was nothing but \media and a config XML file..then flashed a STK custom ROM...got stuck at lg boot logo. Got back to recovery went to filemanager and there it was data\app with all the apps had had installed in my aosp ROM. Loaded aosp backup and all is fine....but I deleted data\app with root browser and in recovery and still there.. :banghead:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sharkboy0901:
I usually wipe all data by all data I mean including data/media then I have no problems. Keep in mind this erases sdcard so you need to have rom on computer and adb push it to the sdcard to flash
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Bdadd34:
I think I will start from scratch with lgnpst and leave the internal memory alone this time and see if that was the cause.

update: Im back to stk going to root then unlock with freegee..Any advice for using freegee it soft bricked me last time and I had to flash tinybin
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Bdadd34:
Well since I went back to unrooted and locked and started from scratch..tried using free gee then flashed tinybins all has gone well..no flashing problems anymore..I think messing with the internal memory is what caused my problems. Been almost a week and I have flashed between several roms and restored from backup many times.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BMP7777:
I had not seen this thread before or I would have chimed in by now. My issues don't go back to the 28th; only over the last week. My issue goes like this: I built and flash my own Beanstalk 1.561 ROM, and had no real functionality issues. I played with it for a day or two before realizing I hadn't backed it up. Did that, and at reboot, got a loop. WTF? I immediately thought it was the ROM, so I wiped Factory, dalvik and cache, and ran one of my older back ups. No problem. Flashed a new build of JellyBeer, updated everything, and backed it up. Restart and loop. Now I'm REALLY pissed. Restored my original stock back up; no prob. Okay, now I'm more confused than angry. Go to update my recovery(already running TWRP 2.5, but wanted a fresh install) Install of fresh recovery fails. I forget what the fail was for though, I was spitting nails at this point. Soooooo, really long story a little shorter, I downloaded and reinstalled TWRP 2.5, no problems. Dumped all of my 'standard' flashing files(Banks Gapps, Smoocha kernel, newer ROM downloads, etc), and redownloaded everything. Installed a fresh download of Beanstalk 1.561(build 7/07; original problem was on build 7/05), updated it, and performed a back up. SAME ISSUE. I think you can imagine the string of curses I want to put here. So, for me all back ups older than last week work fine. ANY BACK UP MADE EVEN TODAY FROM ONE OF MY OLDER BACK UPS RESTORES AND BOOTS FINE. But, any back up made form any of my newer builds(7/01 to now) flakes out. I haven't had the time to try other ROMs, and to be honest, I haven't tried to run anyone else's work since trying to install Vectus a few weeks ago. Does anyone have any info, advise, similar experience? This is driving me nuts, so anything would be great. PM me if you want to :eek:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but from some of your posts, i never hear you mention wiping /system. That could be some of the problem. Even restoring should have /system wipes.

Also on your backups are there at least 7 files in each? You might have ticked a button and aren't backing up /boot
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BMP7777:
Thanks for the response. I'll check into that advice and post what happened.

Checking on my one back up that I haven't deleted before anything else.This is what I have:

boot.emmc.win

boot.emmc.win.md5

data.ext4.win

data.ext4.win.md5

efs1.emmc.win

efs1.emmc.win.md5

efs2.emmc.win

efs2.emmc.win.md5

efs3.emmc.win

efs3.emmc.win.md5

recovery.log

system.ext4.win

system.ext4.win.md5

It looks right to me, but honestly, I never looked that closely at the files. Looks the same as the other backups.....
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
Compared it to mine and it is. You just have the efs also. Maybe try formating /system then restore.

Also maybe try backing up without efs.

Just more options to try.

Also, have you tried a flashable TWRP?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] droidmk:
I have had this problem and I thought it was just my ROM, I have been making changes to different apks and then flashing and if it bootloops I restore previous working version. Several times however the restores work and then bootloop or they fail in recovery. When this happens I wipe cache, dalvik, system, internal memory, data, factory reset. Then I go into download mode and LGPNST and flash original stock unrooted, then root then flash teeny bins, then I'm ok. It's a pain, thought it was just from me tinkering with things. Anyway that gets me working again, then I can reflash the ROM.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] droidmk:
Update: More recently when I've had this happen I just format data and then push what I'm trying to flash into /data/media. Much easier.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Belbol:
Hi guys:

The idea is to make a bugs list to send it to Sony talk forum....

I did full wipe for all things before installing the rom so it's real bugs.

Bugs List:

1- WiFi stop working with some sim cards (redions) like Syrian Sim Card.

2- Scrolling up bar have some lags on home screen with default Sony wallpaper (comparing with ICS and Acro S JB).

3- RAM memory always between 220-350 I mean it's less than ICS.

4- Video recording is laggy on HD\FHD resolutions.

5- Album now shows all photos and images for games in Android\data that wasn't show it with ICS Album.

For me it's still better than ICS but it's not realy smoother.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Marsou77:
HD isn't laggy at all.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Toledo_JAB:
Why would you post that in a "What's wrong with it..." thread?

I think this should be talked about in the DISCUSSION THREAD.

However if you keep the posts STRICTLY bugs/issues wrong with the firmware, I will let it go.

PLEASE DO NOT POST WHAT YOU LIKE OR WHAT WORKS.

ONLY POST PROBLEMS HERE

The DISCUSSION THREAD is for ALL the rest.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
That is the whole point I started my thread that was closed. People are not reading the discussion thread and the ones adding seem to be spreading false information. From the looks of it is only a handful of users are even having any issue.

1. I have had zero issue with wifi but that's not to say other countries are not.

2. I have seen zero issue with scrolling after I have let my device settle. Though I do still get launcher redraws coming back home from some apps.

3. Indeed there are scrolling issues in some apps with the Play store being the big one. It seems to me the adds are the culprit on this one.

4. My ram usage is actually less than it was on ICS.

5.Camera is fine for me with the only issue being screen lag with movement while recording in full HD video but it does not effect the recording. Cyber-shot should fix this.

6. There is some extra lag in the power button and shutdown but do not really see this as being a bug.

7. Album is perfectly fine for me.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hotrodnc:
Nice to see some positive reviews of the new firmware. Personally I'm waiting on CWM to come out for the new firmware before updating, but all the negative reviews have definitely made me hesitant in adopting the new firmware. You would say you like JB more than ICS?

Edit: Also, like you said, if the ram usage really is between 220 and 380 mb, that's about what I'm seeing with ICS. I never see 380 unless I don't have anything running, and 180 isn't uncommon when I've been using it a few days and have something like Skype running in the background while using the home screen. Also is the screen choppy or is it smooth but just a bit behind where it actually is?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
To me it seems to run better than ICS. Not having a working recovery I have not been to brave at trying to change things. For what its worth I have been running it from they day it showed up and I don't get near as aggravated with it as I did on ICS. I did a Antutu run today and scored a 8647 and that is quite a jump from ICS.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] armando_rod:
1- My wifi is good (well the problem is region oriented so is not for everyone)

2- Dont know what you mean, I use Nove Prime and have 0 lag but redraws sometimes

3- You mean the Downloaded Apps in settings? Yes there's some lag due to been scanned for size listing.

4- Free RAM is waste almost every time, that doesnt mean the phone is slow, if the OS has good RAM manager doesnt matter.

5- Full HD video laggy / 720p less lag but still there

6- The same that ICS for me, I hardly turn off my phones.

7- Not happening for me.

Overall this update is good, I wont change it for ICS..

I dont know about the purple tint on photos with auto and flash, haven tested really.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
There is a small app on the market that shows real time free ram. I suggest everyone check it out as I was very surprised at what it showed me.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lee480:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Tharun1001:
thanks :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] 6thsurvivor:
Isn't 1 because you've flashed a rom for a wrong region? And for the bugs - are bugs are the same as the Xperia S bugs, no need for a separate list
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] luisoman2000:
I've had a few random hangs. The phone freezes and pushing the back, home or power button does nothing. The phone goes back to normal but it is annoying. Could have been a bad flash though, i wiped data, cache and dalvik but didnt do a factory reset(and didnt format internal memory which i like to do on a clean install).

Also camera takes its sweet time to focus on night shots(plus you need a steady hand or you get blurry pics).Got some redraws here also.

Overall i still like it a lot more than ICS. Rom is a LOT smoother and performance is a lot better, plus i like the new look.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
Okay to everyone if you don't want to have a bunch of bugs I would highly suggest you do a full reset before flashing JB. If you don't then your just asking for problems.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Belbol:
Still laggy for me and for many people.

1- Yes it's about the regions sims.

2- You just put the default sony JB Wallpaper and compare it with scrolling the up bar in Acro S "I mean the bar for bluetooth - voice - data traffic) you will see that Xperia Ion is laggy.

3- I mean when you press the middle menu bottom , but i will remove it because it is not so laggy.

4- That's what i mean.

6- I will remove it.

7- Just install games like "Draw Race 2" that require download data , after downloading the data to "Android\data" you will see that all data photos are in album , that wasn't shown in ICS.

2- No i mean middle menu bottom , while scrolling the menu you will find some lagg but not too much. i will remove it.

6- it taks longer than ICS but i will remove it.

7- You need a games that have data with photos amd it will show all data photos in album that wasn't in ICS.

1-2-4-7 are realy bugs. OIthers removed.

What is this bug? gime me more informations to add it.

Maybe it's for wrong region but it wasn't on ICS. There is some bugs not the same of Xperia S.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] w3nZ:
I wouldnt call it a bug

Btw, you can reduce launcher redraws by adding one setting to the build.prop .

In the themes section is a mod for better camera, which also reduces the time of focus.

Just video recording in Full HD 1080 cause a laggy, but if u record video with HD 720 it fine and the video is still good...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
I found a new one. When I make or receive a call after I hang up the network shuts off ( red x ) and takes a second to reset itself. Not a big issue but a bit annoying.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] raven4757:
I might have one sometimes when I make a call I get nothing but electric static everytime I make a call but a reboot fixes it
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
Seeing as you have a L28at try flashing the at&t .111 ftf base band. I have not had one issue with calls other than what I posted above.

That being said I may have found another one. But its erratic on when it happens.

Twice now if I back out of a video on youtube the screen does the black edge lit thing and you cant do anything but reboot. Its very strange and like I said has only done it twice. If I try to replicate it it will not do it. So not sure what the deal is.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] raven4757:
Ok thought I did that when I flashed jb but I'll try it again might have been a bad flash the first go around. Thanks
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] 0000alex0000:
then i don't think there's anymore bug. if the lags were less severe, this phone will be awesome
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
I have not really found much else and most the things that did not work correctly on ICS are fine on JB. After messing with my camera and using Cyber there for sure is a small issue with full HD video. I am very happy with my phone again.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ganeshbiyer:
What lags are you guys talking of. I find none. Its fast. Remove all the crap from the phone. Disable unnecessary apps and services from starting. You will find that the phone is very smooth.

I always install LBE security Master.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kathsfernan:
I've installed the pre rooted version, all fine till my phone reboot. That happened to many times as 4 o 5 in 1 hour.

I have flashed the firmware 3 times and nothing good, all with the wipes.

Can anyone help me ? Im back to ICS

(AT&T VERSION)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
After you flash the rom you have to flash the JB kernal with flash tool before it will boot.

Is any way to root the stock version ?

Without pre rooted ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] luisoman2000:
No way to root yet. To get rooted firmware you need to flash the pre rooted rom with cwm(while being on ics) then flash jellybean kernel with flashtool(if you dont you will get bootloop). We have cwm though for jb.

I have a vol-up Bug. The vol-up button doesn't work. Have anyone a idea what i can do? And a onther question. I had relocked my Bootloader some days ago because I have sent my phone to the Shop were I bougth it. Can I now unlock my Bootloader. Befor I had relocked my Bootloader the vol-up Button works fine.

Sorry for my bad English i'm from Germany :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] luisoman2000:
Vol up bug is a JB bug(got it here too). Funny thing about this bug, it acts up whenever it wants. Sometimes volume works just fine and then boom! vol up stops working. Personally if i need to increase the volume i hit the vol down key and adjust the volume on the screen once the volume control appears.

About bootloader unlock... I wouldnt know. In theory it should still be unloackable.

APN LTE issue.

So I was on a call and when I hung up it went strait to my network settings and mobile data was unchecked. Thought that was quite strange and then I notice its says wcdma preferred. I check the menu and the LTE listing is gone. I know for a fact it was there and working. It also reset my apn to AT&T Phone instead of AT&T PTA.

Well now it just completely froze and rebooted on me. It seems if I run a speed test it reboots the phone. Going to try flashing base band again and see what happens.
