Guys in the nooby guide in the ICS root section, it says in the instructions flash the .bin file.

Does that mean I only flash the .bin file and not the .fls file?? Last time I done this it put 2.3.4 in my phone!

thanks in advance
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
If you want an ICS ROM, or JB, or higher, you only need to flash the .bin file. If you want a v20/GB ROM, you should flash the v20 baseband as well ;)

error in smartflash

Ok Thanks. I've tried pretty much everything, even putting the phone onto the official LG upgrader, the upgrader loses communication while its doing the upgrade, and smartflash comes up with errors and stops. Pretty much stagnant now dont know what to do.

any ideas??

P.S. my phone is dead from yesterday as i tried to stick a new rom in. not working at all!
[LG Optimus Black] ruiq1:
Try to flash Bin & Cp files from Preinstallation for IZS ROM (SmartFlash) HERE : http://huexxxtuff.blogspot.com.es/2013/01/izs-rom-links.html

Make shure to reinstall drivers before.

Then after this flash let it complete boot and then try to flash what you wanted.

Some times PCs are assholes.....and not just the phones....

As for rooting ics, just use http://www.unlockroot.com/ - (with usb debugging on)

Hope it helps, cheers!

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] penout:
It was unlocked and working perfect until the battery went completely dead and wasnt charged back up for a week. After pluging in the charger I was unable to do a complete charge as the pda keeps starting up. It runs for about a minute or two then restarts and boots back up, the cycle continues with no end. I got to work for about 10 ten minutes, the phone worked, the charger was active in the battery option menu, but then it started all over again. I've reflashed and changed roms. The amber charge light does appear. Also hard reset doesnt work. Please help, bought the phone used but only got to enjoy it for a day.!

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kri3tian:
Hello everyone

First i want to congrats all the persons how make all this tutorials, they really help me a lot.

And now the questions, i already read the forum and the rules and i know i cant ask for compare any roms or kernel (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2097137) but i still need a few lights.

I need a kernel and a rom that help me save battery and can be fast enough for applications.

The last 2 i use was CM10 and FreeXperia kernel, and now i am using kernel vengeance and Xperia Ultimate HD 3.0. I test both with Antutu Benchmark and give me 4800 with Xperia Ultimate HD, and 5800 with CM10.

There is any combination Kernel/Rom that can help me make higher score and at same time save battery?

Many thanks
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phenomzye:
Welcome to xda forums.

It's useless to say that you have seen the rules and you still make this thread, the only answer that you should get and probably the only one you will get, is this one:

TRY yourself each ROM from the Android Development forums, and then you will see which one suits your needs, and serves you the best.

Also, don't forget that AnTuTu scores aren't 100% reliable, and they're based mainly on Governors, I/O schedulers and CPU Frequencies, it's not that reliable because I myself get better gaming performance with a Governor that gave me 5300, than with one that gave me 6000, they are just numbers.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popthosegaskets:
Like above post said, try out the different ROM and kernel combinations yourself as the resulting performance is different for everyone because of the different settings you use and the different apps you install on your phone. If you want to find the most suitable kernel for your phone, check the ROM thread. Each ROM thread should have a list of recommended kernels that will work best with the ROM. For example, Jader recommended LuPuS kernel for his UHD ROM. However, if LuPuS does not work well for you, you can always try out other kernels in the recommended list. It differs with each user.

As for benchmark, it only gives a general idea of your phone's performance. It is not accurate enough to genuinely gauge phone performance. The one who determines that is yourself. Only you can tell if the performance is good by trying it out yourself.

Thanks for the replies.

I did like both sugested, trying. I tryied a ICS Rom and i didnt like it. So far the only one that i like most was CM10.1, the kernel i use was the included in the Rom. Work all allrigth.

Anyway sorry for the questions, i just wanted to make sure before starting flashing my phone.

Thanks ;)

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] windvanger:
I have installed the stable release of Cyanogenmod 10.1 recently on my Xperia T but one thing really annoys me.

The camera button is acting as the power button. If you touch the camera button with only a half press the phone awakes.

So when you have the phone in your pocket it starts calling, is sending messages or is selecting/entering stuff on the lock-screen widgets for example.

Is there a way to disable the camera button as power button in Cyanogenmod 10.1?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] thedisturbedone:
There is a fix for this in CM10.1 thread at Original Development. Search for "camera" keyword.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] windvanger:
Thanks, but can you give me a link to the thread or post?

I have searched the forum but can't find a solution on this one.

In my experience that is the case. If I install a kernel wich the people tells about good battery life, I have never experienced otherwise...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidcarp:
Experimentation is the best.

Make a backup, make another backup and save it off your phone... and test kernels for yourself, each phone and user are way too different for a specific recommendations.

Then, test kernels with different roms.

But always back up to give you some peace if mind if it all goes wrong.... But even that is no guarantee.

How To Use Android Tweaker pro

This Is my 2nd post on xda... i wil like to share some things which can enhance the perfomance on your mobile and can also give you a very good battery backup...

this is based on my personal experience so hope fully it wil very helpful to u all.. so follow my step to step instructions which is given below (nandriod backup first ) ;)

step no.1

install tweaker application in ur mobile set.

go to the tools and scroll down and then you will find the utility option,then instal init.d support.now you are ready to apply tweak.

step no.2

as soon as you open tweak you will see welcome,then perfomance ,then battery

then tick on increase wifi scan

tick on increase deep sleep where you need to select either on 1 or 2. ( i suggest u choose 1 , very effective ..)

tick on disable power collapse

then come to init.d and on the vm battery tweaks

if you want picture quality like Sony then come to image option, enable bravia engine v2 and also tick the increase photo and video quality

come to the tools and on the extreme lower memory killer.

now go to the kernel and tick on allow purging of asets

and then scroll down then you see a option called governer.if you know which governer you are using then you see they have seperate options like onedemad,battery performance and many more

just check and apply

(

now come to performence (if u want only battery backup n good perfomence den select all the option who given in bottom )

tick force render UI withGPU ,scrool down

see smoothness tweaks

improving scrolling speed (tick)

increase overall touch responsivness (tick)

scrool down ,come to init.d

ON strict minfree hadler tweaks

now d last one come to network

n TICK d default net speed

thats it

now soft reboot .... n njoy :good:

how to remove ur tweaks by @ avie vohra

If u guys used android tweaker, pimp my rom or android tuner or any other tweaks.... And if u want to remove tweaks, open apps n clean or remove tweaks n settings but dnt reboot after that. Copy ur original build.prop frm ur rom and paste it in system folder and change permission before reboot. Or u wip find aa build.prop.bak file in system folder, just rename it by removing only .bak

Reboot system once u r sure ur build.prop size is from 2kb-9kb

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cedropol:
I've got a doubt about battery discharging in my phone. When it normally discharges from 100 to 35% everything is in normal, with similar drops every hour for ex. 2 days. But (even in standby) when battery is on app 35% I see very fast drop to 25-20% in couple mins. At the beggining I thought it is maybe broken cell in battery but I notice that around camera surface is warm, not hot. So it is probably matter of software. What drains my battery so fast and always at app 35-30%? Do you have similar issues? I made factory wipe few charging cycles ago but it did not make any changes.

Sorry, it will not improve your battery, just if you have wrong indicated battery %,it maybe solve that. I solved a problem like that.my battery went from 50% down to 18 in a cuple of min.after deleting the stats and a few charges it was O.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
No. The batterystats.bin file has no relation to the percentage displayed in the notification bar. It is used to calculate the usage statistics displayed in the battery usage section of settings. Nothing more. The file is deleted every time the battery is fully or nearly fully charged anyway.

Hi,

My S4 has been playing up lately. If you restart, it runs out of juice etc, you cannot turn it on. it just vibrates and stays off.

I've found that if I leave the battery out for over an hour - I can get into recovery. If I select "Clear Cache" it starts to do something, then I get the droid fallen over with a red exclamation mark and "Error!" underneath.

I've done a factory reset (from settings menu) - I don't really want to root, or mess about with recoveries as I am still inclined to just send it back to Samsung.

If anyone has any ideas on what I can do to try and fix the situation - I would be most grateful.
