After updating to 4.4.11 my version is still 4.4.4 and it still norifies me about update. Anyone else?

Unlocked bootloader, if it matters.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] imm1304:
yes, this happened to me too. When I flashed the 4.4.11 update via cwm, aroma launched and confirmed the new update was successful. After reboot, the version still 4.4.4.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kin912:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] imm1304:
This worked. Thank you.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] 6thsurvivor:
Assert failed on antispam.apk during 4.4.18 update. Is this because the unwanted apk delete script?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kin912:
Yes,you must flash the fullrom if you delete the files.

wifi not working

wifi not working after 4.4.11 update . done a fresh install . done factory reset also . please help . its STUCK AT 'WIFI TURNING ON"
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] imm1304:
Try updating to 4.4.18. I did not experience this problem but just thinking that updates often help with such issues.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ben cherian:
where can i get 4.4.18 update file link ? i have edited system apps
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] imm1304:
As the OP has said, you can't use update file if system apps are deleted so you have to download the the full rom 4.4.18. Don't worry, the download speeds have improved compared to last few months.

An alternative would be to dirty flash the 4.4.11 (I assume you have full 400+MB file) rom without deleting cahe/data. Then apply the OTA update to 4.4.18.

Good luck. :)

The last few updates I've experienced alot of browser crashes. Also, my phone often reboots after a phone call. I've installed clean. Maybe my phones just getting old.

Sent from my SeXperia Ion
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] imm1304:
I am experiencing lots of browser FC's too. In two days, the phone rebooted on 3 occasions after a phone call. My phone is not very old.. just over 6 months of light use as a second phone line. So I don't think its your phone. Last night I tested a different rom and the phone seems to be back to normal.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kin912:
I think this week's release will be ok.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:
4.4.25

Calls are good so far, and the no force closing on the browser.

There's still the bad recurring recent apps tray popping up all the time, and the themes app is in Chinese, which affects the sound settings as well. Clearing data for themes app temporarily makes it in English, but a few restarts of the app and back to Chinese. Other phones with miui have this problem too so not just this rom, but the recent apps tray issue seems to be rare, perhaps it only happens on stock kernel?

Im having another problem that I've had before with this rom, sd card removed error when playing music, using gallery or titanium backup. This, and the recent apps tray problem have forced me to move on to stock rom where I never have this issue. I'll still test each release. Thanks to kin for making this available.

[MENTION=3996553]kin912[/MENTION]

good and difirence ROM. Feel difirence :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:
I rolled back to 3.11.22. The only problems with this release is occasional loss in signal, never during a call and only for about 5 seconds, only happened once today. The other problem is the time, it needs data/wifi to set, then it's fine until reboot.

The recent releases are unbearable, with reboots and recent apps tray popping up all the time.

Tested 4.5.9 for a bit. The Chinese language in themes is no longer a problem. I didn't test for reboots on calls because the recent apps tray kept on popping up. So, back to old faithful 3.11.22!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kin912:
updata 4.5.30.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:
No apns, can't add them either. Sure enough the recent apps tray has a mind of its own. I'll reinstall later, I miss miui.

I'm gonna test this with swap, which seems to work great on sirius v2. Might help with keyboard closing, and if I'm lucky if will eliminate the recent apps issue.

Sent from my SeXperia Ion
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] :
Swap elimates the recent apps and keyboard issue. But after installing a Good amount of apps even Swap doesnt work Good. I have tried that in this rom. I use Swap in Every rom. No problem with Swap in other rom.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:
I've been using this with swap, and changed the minfrees with unit.d. I made a few other build prop changes, removed some stuff, zipped signed and flashed. Running better than ever! 3 days not a single recent apps tray or keyboard issue, multi tasking better than ever! Running awesome. I'm glad to be back on miui.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] imm1304:
I am also looking to come back on MIUI but delayed it because of your previous post. It would be great if you could share your version or some details of what you did... if its not a problem of course.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:
I need to test longer, and I'm learning development stuff when I can. I'm hoping to support the Ion development. I might upload to my mediafire and share with a few people.

So far it's running fantastic, keyboard is very responsive, no recent apps popping up, no reboots after calls, browser is not hogging ram and bringing the phone to a crawl. The only issue is Chinese language in theme app, but that's common in other devices with recent releases.

Sent from my SeXperia Ion
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] imm1304:
Happy to hear that you're taking interest in the development stuff. Seems like you have taken care of the real annoying issues.. the Chinese language in themes app is bearable by clearing data as you told me in the past. If you do upload to mediafire, I will be happy to be one of the few you share with. Thanks.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:
Wiping data for theme only temporarily fixes it for me, its OK I'll just learn Chinese! :p
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] :
Please share what stuff you did even I want to come back to miui. It's feels really different and would be good use it. Thanks.

[MENTION=3996553]kin912[/MENTION] good ROM but it must be root acces and xperia keyboard. I try two of them but didnt install. :(
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] :
Go to security app - permissions and activate root access.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Pro_SmarT:
thanks an keyboard :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] :
Now you have root. Get the one from themes section and check if it works or not.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:
Im still working on making either a full rom zip or just update zip. I've been using it for 3 days and no recent apps issue, no keyboard problems or anything ram related, no reboots, just much better. I'm also adding a keyboard. I would rather kin just add it if he wants, I'm not a dev, I got it to flash, but you have to set permission on a bunch of system six manually after boot for init.d to work, I also added brighter led, gpu rendering, removed unneeded apps and files, build prop changes, and added lt28at to update script.

I don't want to add to dev section, I have very limited knowledge, I am learning, and it's kins rom and the swap init script is from sirius v2 rom.

I can assure you, this runs great, I want you to check it out, its nice to have stable miui again, such a brilliant ui. Any help? Suggestions?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] :
Awesome. Thanks mate.

I think if [MENTION=3996553]kin912[/MENTION] doesn't have any problem then it will be fine for you to release this.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kin912:
The miui remove the baidu input method.You can install the keyboard by your self.If you can only use the stock kernel,I suggest you to open the swap by the script.

To make notification led brighter:

Use Root Browser. Navigate to system/etc/pre_hw_config.sh. Tap on pre_hw_config.sh, click view, click RB Text Editor. Now change the three values after the words "echo" to something higher. 20000 is max. Click save. Reboot. Done.

Brighter notification LED

sure,

go to system/etc/pre_hw_config.sh

open the file with text editor and write the following code in it (change only the last three lines)

echo 7000 > $dev/red/max_current

echo 7000 > $dev/green/max_current

echo 7000 > $dev/blue/max_current

save the file and reboot...

now go to service Menu and test your LED.. See the difference...

bro this process is to increase the max brightness of LCD not the notification LED
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:
Installed as directed, minus the language in build prop, I couldn't understand that so skipped it. I don't see any problems so I'm not sure what the purpose is. The only thing in the build prop referring to language said En, assume english?

I changed the LED values in system to 20000, nice and brought now!

I flashed gapps, after rom settled, no problems there.

Installed all of my apps with data via titanium backup. No problems

Reboot, fix permissions..

Lte: check, using rogers baseband

Wifi: check (fast)

Gps: works, but im gonna replace the gps.cfg with one from stock att.

Bluetooth: check, haven't tried music yet

Hdmi: check, no problems

Camera: not bad, but for camcorder, turn off stabilization, and go single focus, and no hd for smooth operation.

Call recording: check, although recording without speakerphone on makes it a bit harder to hear playback of the caller.

Haven't really encountered any problems, everything just WORKS. Of course the chinese apps are fairly useless if you don't speak it, but the stuff you need is usable.

After using miui v4 for most of my Ions life, I must say, this is a big improvement. It runs well on this phone, aside from the home screen not quite having that smooth glide that v4 had, its overall faster, no home screen redraw either. Im very pleased so far, actually that's an understatement. This is a much richer experience than any stock based roms.

Thanks so much for bringing this to the Ion!

& repacking the rom & installing..

Keep up all the good work !! :good:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Pro_SmarT:
Ok thanks. but dont install :(
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:
I got 4.6.6 zipped and signed with some "enhancements", It took me along time I'm not a developer, but it boots with swap working. init.d with a minfree tweak, which combined makes this run as good as ever and no recent apps popping up, no keyboard closing, no music stopping, just good stable operation. Heres what I did.

Added:

Init.d, swap and minfree script, confirmed working. I made adjustments to updater-script.

Added lt28at to getprop in updater script and build prop.

Build prop: Battery capacity 1500-1900, not sure if this matters but my battery is 1900mah

Android keyboard

X-plore file manager

Google text to speech (pico removed)

Weather BZ (like miui weather but more options)

User dictionary into system (some apps need this and will FC if its not installed)

Brighter LEDs

Removed:

Videos from system/media

Weather.apk

pico.tts

Tweaks from build prop

CANT REMEMBER!!

Tips:

Click "security" app, select "power" or better yet long press power to create shortcut on homescreen. Go to battery configuration, make a profile that suits you, but select "clean memory" and pick anything but never. This will clean up ram while screens off, just like long pressing the home key and doing the "sweep". Its not really necessary with the added tweaks, but no harm. The profile stays active until you select another one, not sure about rebooting though. I also dont know if cpu usage setting works or what it does, anyone??

No need to download apps that miui already has, like mail, music, texting, notes, launcher, etc. Everything is sorta meant to work together, and works extremely good for "stock" apps. The launcher is great, just learn how to use it, app drawers suck. If you get a different one, be sure to go settings/launcher settings/ and uncheck "keep in memory".

Be sure to select security app, go to permission, click root permission if you have root apps

Settings/security check unknown sources to lift ban to install apks.

Do not restore apns with an back up app, it sometimes makes the apn disappear and then you cant save any new ones, just do it manually to be safe.

I'm gonna try and learn how too make a flashable zip that just adds the changes, so that you can add this stuff to later updates.For now, Im gonna share the entire rom, first I have to find out if its ok to share on this thread, its uploaded to mediafire and ready to go. :D

With or without the changes I've made, the equalizer in miui music is not working, I also tried dsp manager, no go. Other music player like poweramp work fine. Any ideas? Anyone else confirm this? I'm a bit upset, I really like the miui music player.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] imm1304:
Just chekced, the equalizer levels do change depending on the different pre-set I selected. Also, I was able to manually adjust the levels. BUT, I did not hear the change in the sound. Seems like its stuck on one setting and changing levels in the equalizer has no effect.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:

There's a swap image in /data. I'm not sure if its working. There's a script for minfree entries, but in sys/modules/lowmemorykiller/minfree the entries were not affected by the script. I'm going to fix it all, anyone that wants it send pm.

Sent from my Xperia Ion
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:
I figured out why the scripts arent working. Im curious if the ones included with the rom would be sufficient if working, or if the swap and minfree entries are all that's needed. I know from my experience that I'm getting good performance with just swap and minfree (lowmemorykiller). I will try with kins tweaks, and with minimal tweaks. Im gonna conquer this. Im on limited time, and not a dev but this rom is awesome. Im gonna get it right. I have one ready now, for those that requested, its a minimal tweaks with brighter led, and some other stuff.

Volume up button not working for me in this rom, plz help, everything else is fine...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:
Volume up is a problem on all jb roms for me. I'm a copy/paste developer, I'm not a guru, but I have the will to learn much more. This is kins contribution, I do not know how to port. I added the swap script from Sirius v2, a few things like brighter led, slight debloat, and some other little stuff. Its a compilation I made for me but wanted to share.

As soon as 4.6.20 drops from kin I'll do the usual changes, I don't know how to add the update. So I'll have to wait for the full rom.

Use no frills and set minimum cpu to 486, on demand governor, and noop scheduler. This has so far eliminated reboots which were only occurring while using bluetooth earpiece for phone calls. Don't worry, battery life is good. Keyboards like SwiftKey may lag a little, so if it bothers you use Android keyboard or stock xperia which are going to be included. I use SwiftKey, it rarely hiccups. The rom is nice, I'll post the significant settings I use FYI.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:
http://www.mediafire.com/?ietks3vco7s9osx

Use no frills cpu control or something similar. Set minimum 486, i/o noop.

I've thrown everything but the kitchen sink at my phone today and not a single hiccup! Had tethering on for my tablet and Bluetooth earpiece making calls and doing work online all afternoon.

Some settings suggestions.

Sound/system, only have vibrate on touch turned on, vibration "light"

Turn on NFC if you use it, because there's no toggle, and it uses only 1 or 2 percent battery, may need Bluetooth on when using.

In accessibility/car mode settings, uncheck read sms unless you want people to hear your text. If you delete ASSIST 1.7 app car mode will not work.

Launcher settings, turn off app shadows.

Security settings, turn off "user experience program", not sure if it hurts performance but I turn it off.

Turn off sync, when you need it just tap the sync toggle, it will sync and turn off again.

If your battery is charging but the percentage does not increase, hold volume up and power to force reboot, problem solved.

Thanks to kin for continuing updates!

Thanks for your work kin.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:
4.6.27 has some nice init scripts, thanks. I do believe that atleast those of us on locked bootloader will need the swap file, or the recent apps tray WILL jump out at you randomly.

I will test with and without swap, but either way I'm gonna share a debloated version of this release with brighter led, swap, some UI sounds I like, and a few other things. Last release kins init.d scripts were not working, I'll fix it as well.

I'm going to test the rom as-is right now, and make appropriate changes. Expect it to be done in about 4 hours.

I've used Sirius v2 for about 3 days, no problems at all, but I miss miui. Most people have no clue the functionality and usability of miui, i might have to buy a xiaomi phone.

I'll post my best of this newest release later, I haven't yet because with an hour the recent apps popping up happened 3 times, even with swap. NEVER happened with previous releases.

First Thank you for this rom you guys do amazing work.

I need to know if you need to modify the zip before installing on LT28at or can you flash it unmodified?

If so what mods need to be made to the zip before flashing?
