I used this Rom for a few weeks now, this rom is good, I loved Honami Conversation and phonebook, after I wiped cache/dalvik and turned off my phone, the batterry is better now, it drained about 50% for 7 hours after fully charged, but I found some bug, when I adjust quick settings, system ui is always force closed, but it's ok.

It's very hard and time taking job.

I started to MOD framework then I discovered that I must edit apps - one by one and you can only imagine how many apps, pngs and xmls there is.

As Niaboc said, he has his family and job and he is doing his best to give us best of his work.

I kept my XS only to final eXistanZ Ultimate on it and I'm sure it'll be great.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] barret95:
people are saying their battery life is bad on this ROM, so I was just curious to see the difference between their battery life and mine.

I had my cable plugged into my Laptop as I was transferring files from the phone to the laptop.

What's the problem? please help.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] heross:
The Problem? You don`t sleep, or anyone use your phone over night? I see it drains constantly. :cowboy:

Here you can see a good acculife. :cool:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tOrNadO™:
Yeah.. Look at what is at the top.. Android System, which means the phone was in Deep Sleep for most of the time.. I'd say the Screen time would be around 3-3.5 hrs.. Since the phone charged again as [MENTION=4787601]barret95[/MENTION] was transferring some files.. Its like he got the screen time what i mentioned with 150% of the charge which is bad.. Because i would get this screen time with 100% in stock with stock kernel and no tweaks.. ;) Its just that he is using less.. Just low to medium usage.. ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] barret95:
you pretty much explained it. I looked at the screen time and it's 3 hours 9mins. ;)

I normally use my phone when I need to/when I get notifications. My battery usage may be bad, but for me, it's alright I guess :) anyway, I think these posts should go in the Discussion thread :) Don't want to spam the dev one ah ;)

Need your help buddy

I am on stock .96 but not installed using Flashtool. I have flashed a 4.0.4.55 using Flashtool(Bcoz i got stuck in bootloop) and later i have updated to JB .200 and now in .96 through Wifi. Do i still need to Flash the .96 using Flash tool or shall i skip the Step...

I am Fan of ur eXistenZ HDR and this one looks awesome..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dermaze:
I guess as long as you've rooted it and installed a custom recovery, you should be good to go with the next step.

But I do not have too much experience with eXistenZ so far...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] samsarab1104:
every thing is good but battery life is bad

thanks for your great rom i have installed and i love the look of honami contacts and dialer ,clock,

i remove the camera and install stock one,

only the problem is huge battery drain even more from stock rom,

i have used Trinity Vengeance RaptorXL rom and found this rom is consuming less battery even less from stock ,

i love your rom as it looks nice but can you do some thing like Trinity Vengeance RaptorXL so tha battery life also good and your rom become top of all rom,

i install lot of roms but i stuck at your rom only it is stable and look good , so i request you to look into battery life,
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] heross:
Hello,

i use eXistenZ now two weeks with Trinity kernel. In this Time i have found only two problems:

-from time to time generates the process "wifistatemaschine" wakelocks and prevents deep sleep. To solve this i must reboot. The problem described here is quite good.

-Yesterday the XS did not detect anymore plugin the USB cable and did not want to charge the battery. I turn it off and offlinecharge was ok. After the reboot to system USB works normally again.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kamui1407:
hw to do that plz ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dermaze:
Go to Settings -> Apps -> All

Choose the different camera apps you'll find there one after each other and select Force close, then delete data

The actual buttons can be named differently, as I did anticipate those names from my German handset, but the procedure should be clear I guess.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] stibuz95:
To have better battery life ;

Now i am downloading the JB .96 FTF going to try installing soon.. Kindly advice me why this problem is??? is this completely because of doing "Fix Permission"??

Hello Guys and [MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION] ...

1.Am I the only one getting a huge delay while opening the phone call icon on the home screen dock.....

On pressing the call button,It takes a lot of time to open and then again when clicking on some contact to call...it gives a considerable amt of delay!!!

It is kinda irritating...wen u r on a hurry to call someone...and then it just wont open easily.....

Is there any workaround for it...

2.And Yeah...d battery does drain a lot quickly...I charged till 100 % and den wiped cache , dalvik... discharged it till 0 % rebooted many times...still bad battery life... dont know y....

3.And ofc..the honami camera app is still dodgy...dinosaur and other features rarely come up quickly....

Just love the innovative ROM...this is probably the only true emulation of a honami rom out here...but the abv drawbacks

Please help with the abv drawbacks....I installed this ROM the day it was released...I wanna continue with it...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mechatronic:
And now it's time to niaboc returne and reclaim his rom's work with making some changes,and necessary tweaks;);):thumbup:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tOrNadO™:
Of course, he will make changes.. But no tweaks.. Its all a cliche.. Forget them.. Keeping things the way from Stock is much safe and better.. But u r always welcome to try any tweaks necessary for your personal use.. ;) Also i think the ROM's system_server is related to something inside framework, which will eventually be fixed when niaboc finds time.. ;)

Is possible to fix it?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] rampage2020:
same here
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] shorinryu:
I have been using this latest ExistenZ Ultra on my Xperia S locked Bootloader and it has been a great refresh from the previous .200 JB that I had. Sadly .96 is not officially available for update on unbranded handsets in the UK it seems.

I flashed the .96 kernel from an FTF that I found here on the forums and can say that overall it is a great experience. The Honami camera works great in 'Manual' mode and with a little patience related features such as the AR effects also work quite well.

I have monitored my use with BetterBatteryStats and found that I am not plagued by the phone not entering 'deep sleep' and actually when both Wi-Fi and 3G are disabled I barely notice any battery drain. However when using the phone and with low brightness settings there is still a great deal of battery drain above and beyond stock JB on my phone. That being said my battery does last most of the day until around the time I go to bed anyway. So 16 hours of normal use for me and about 3-4 hours screen on time is enough although not ideal.

The lag that people have been experiencing as I have seems completely related to the fact that many software features of Honami are optimised for a much more powerful quad-core SoC that the Xperia S does not possess. I am sure that with an unlocked bootloader and using a custom kernel some of the performance can be improved though.

I have had issues with the following specifically:

WhatsApp - I cannot open the camera within the app to take a picture. Must use the camera first and then attach or share the image.

DLNA - Accessing my home media server that is hosted through PLEX allows me to access the menus but no media is detected by the phone through the Album and Walkman apps.

Wakelocks - "wlan_rx_wake", "PowerManagerService", "NlpWakeLock", "NlpCollectorWakeLock" These processes are clocking a high amount of wake time and I am not sure how to reduce them.

I hope this is of some help to Niaboc79 and any of the other members that have been helping him.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
And that, Ladies and Gentlemen, is how you write a proper feedback. Congratulations, that's the best way to thank for (in this case) Niaboc's work and help him fix any possible problems.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] stibuz95:
I have a problem with 12mp Camera option. When i took the photo i receive a message "Unknown error", and the photo didn't taken. Anyone knows why? Thanks!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] shorinryu:
I used an app on XDA known as BetterBatteryStats.

First fully charge your phone and then open the app so it initialises. After that disconnect your phone from the charger and use normally.

When you see your battery percentage is low open the app and go through the categories like "kernel wakelocks" and "partial wakelocks". It will show you which processes and services are keeping your phone awake and using valuable battery power.

If you recognise the process or apps then close them or use something like Greenify to kill them when not in use. Otherwise report the name of the processes here and hopefully it can help future developments for this ROM. :)

I was wondering if you can include this on your ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2244886 I already got the app working on stock ROM. The only issue is that the controller draws too much power, and the phone blocks it. But it works fine when using a Hub. Is it possible to make it happen modifying the kernel or something like that?

Also, it would be awesome if you could make Stamina into this ROM. It is a great feature!

Which Program is the best to Save User Data?

Hi at you all here. I'm pretty new to this, and would like to try out this Rom on my Xperia S. I just wonder which program i should use to backup my User Date. I'm currently on Stock rom Jelly Bean 6.2.B1.96 and i would like to have the ability to restore my Data on this new eXistenZ Ultra or eXistenZ V2 ROM. Any Ideas?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Peter_95:
Your data, you mean your photos ?? If yes, then your photos, musics and videos won't get format and will be save ..... But it's still recommended for you to backup all your SDCARD files to your computer ....... We don't know what is gonna happen, so backup for the save.

If you mean the data is all your apps that come from the stock rom or that you downloaded from the playstore, it will be get format and you are going to redownload all of them again ..... And the settings of the app will be gone ......

But you can use a third party apps to backup your apps, the name is Titanium Backup, it is on the playstore ......

It's recommended to do a full wipe(format cache, app)before and after you install this ROM, to avoid not-mentioned bug as less as possible ......

So if redownload is not bothering you too much, then it's better to redownload ......

Hi guys....

I have installed this rom and tried several times to get into CWM but i just cant!!!

Before installing this rom, i had to push volUP button when the blue light blick... but now it does not blink and even pushing the button since i press power button, CWM wont open... phone just boots normaly... I have also tried to touch the SONY logo, but it also does not work... why is this happening?? :eek:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Ofcos:
as for me... you dont have a right kernel with a recovery. :)

if its that, you need to find a way to install recovery or reinstall a different kernel with recovery in it

PS:usually you se sony logo on stock kernels..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] someone2kill:
I have the same kernel i had before... I have not changed it... I've just installed this rom with full wipe, and now i can't access CWM
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Ofcos:
right...the rom has a kernel in it also.

ok...idkn how is it in this rom... but in Existenz v2 (previous) it was like that... you flash the rom, and flash a kernel with recovery... if not you will get a stock kernel ,with Sony logo like you,and no recovery. so im making decisions from that

Camera Button

Hello,

I was trying to verify why my camera button was giving FC and went to camera app and clear cache.

When I did it a used the camera button and it started to work. I was really surprised when I saw that camera had started and could take 2 pictures in auto superior mode.I played a bit with it and when I opened the functions it appeared the black screen with 6 squares. After this a couldn't get again the auto superior, unless I go to apps and clear camera cache again.

So if I don't use the functions (bottom left 3 dots) it works, even changing flash, frontal camera and video recording

Maybe everyone knows this but I had never tried to use this mode, just followed the rom tutorial and always used manual mode.

Additional question, why do the phone menu/dialer sometimes lag?

Edit: Do not clear cache for Camera Add-on, Common or extension. After I did it never worked again, only black screen.

Edit2: If you have black screen on auto mode do like this:

-Clear Cache and Dalvik Cache on CWM

- reboot and use camera in manual mode or other modes

- go to application, select camera 1.0.0 and clear cache

- use auto mode from button, not menu

If after reading this you don't believe let me help:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] corum3:
confirmed, works for me too, i have now been in and out of the camera 5-6 times and it works every time. rocking.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] yakupTR:
honami camera now superouto mode works bro :)? Report :P

Xperia S1 now Free
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] n4s:
Everything already reported.

Everyone that use this rom knows that Auto mode doesn't work so we can't say that it's working.

A workaround was found to use the Auto mode but it has some restrictions.

If you follow the steps and use only the camera button (physical button) you will be able to have auto mode but with some restrictions.

So yesterday there was no auto mode, today you have with restrictions. If you can live with the restrictions just follow what was written two posts before.

Enjoy ;)
