OK just wondering: Does everyone still get relatively high Android OS battery usage? I'm on the 4/26 nightly with 4/26 PA Gapps and Android OS is generally either my highest or second-highest battery drainer, depending on how much I've been using my phone...

Just wondering if this was normal or if I should try a clean install to fix it.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] seeker07:
in 27/4 call sound is too low

is there any patch to solve it
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] cetronix:
I can confirm this too. Today I sound like a deaf person always repeating the other side to speak louder :laugh:

Otherwise perfect ROM. I tried almost all others and Omni is thanks to Tilal still the best :good:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] bartjeh1991:
Had the same problem, seems to fix after some hours (20+), also a reboot fixed it for me once.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] MrKwint:
For some reason OpenDelta doesn't find update's. I'm running yesterdays nightly (28/04) and when checking updates manually it goes to "download" then for half a minute it doesn't do anything, then it says that the rom is up to date, last checked on bladiebla. But on dl.omnirom.com/mint there actually is an newer version of the rom.

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Note: I have a zip in the FlashAfterUpdate folder
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] mrkaehler:
Seems that OpenDelta is fixed. Now it works.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] zandm7:
Yay! So happy about that :)

On a side note, what is everyone using for an I/O scheduler? I had noop for awhile but it seems to be worse than the default deadline, just wondering if anyone experienced anything similar...

Gapps are gone? How can I download them. Is it the same as the Paranoid Android gapps? And if so then which ones?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] scanno:
Strange I always had a pretty good deep sleep time. I just checked it again and am seeing this

I cannot remember when this started though.

Try with better battery stats, to see what is causing wakelocks.

Try wiping dalvik/cache and installing the ROM again (a proper download, not a file from OpenDelta). I've faced this issue sometimes and this way it was (somehow) solved.

And which Gapps should I download? This rom is a 4.4 but the kernel is 4.3 so if anyone could point me in the right direction that'd be great... Thanks
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] pieceofphil:
4.4... I really don't want to be rude but this is something you can google or is stated in OP

Gesendet von meinem Xperia T mit Tapatalk
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Budgiemanr33gtr:
-_-

I don't mean to be rude but you are wrong, the OP has a broken Gapps link and nothing written about an alternative.

The XDA community is not supposed to be an elitist group of people who tell you to "Find it yourself" and its

people like you who cause noobs such as myself to break their phones because they did find it themselves but

came to realise that it was in fact the wrong zip. etc, etc.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] xxfraxx:
Is indifferent but for me since i used gapps by banks i recommend you those, go HERE and flash gapps minimal then aosp calendar sync and then aosp browser sync
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] zandm7:
Now, I agree that people on XDA should be more open to giving simple advice, but this is just a ridiculous statement. Nobody's forcing you to take actions that, when executed incorrectly, can "break" your phone. That's on you, and it's a crucial part of learning IMO. Because most stuff is relatively low-risk; even when your phone seems "broken" it's almost always fixable and then you know what you did wrong so you know what to avoid next time. How do you think those of us who are knowledgeable turned out this way? We didn't just magically have the answers, we have to find them and that involves taking chances and experimenting by trial and error.

So in general, try things yourself BEFORE asking questions. If everything is just handed to you on a platter then you can't expect to learn anything or actually be proficient with Android modding.

And as to your specific question, it's pretty easy to find the right Gapps packages. Just because the one linked in the OP is wrong doesn't mean you're just totally lost...it's not that hard to just Google "PA Gapps" and find the relevant thread on XDA with download links.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Antiga Prime:
Ok, I have nothing do to with this thread since I have TX, but I was bored and opened this and I can't help myself from commenting.

First, true, XDA is not supposed to be an elitist group, but then again, if you're here, you should have at the very least read the rules, in which the first rule is:

Now true, I've already known about Gapps for 4.4 given that I have different phones, but come on, searching isn't hard, and there is a search option on each page. It didn't take me more than 60 seconds to input "Gapps" in the search bar, which showed this post in the first search page, which clearly shows that you're not the type of person here that has an interest in collaborating, but want things handed to you on a silver platter, because, as stated in the first rule quoted above, "it's very likely that someone has already asked that question or shared that news."

All this to say, search first, then ask your question. Also, if the XDA search doesn't give you relevant answers, you can always use Google. For instance, you mentioned that "This rom is a 4.4 but the kernel is 4.3". If you interest yourself a bit more on the subject, you might have read up a bit on kernels; or you can have just done a google search, which might have led you to this, which clearly shows that there is no 4.3 kernel, which also might have helped clear up any doubts you might have.

It's not that people are rude because they hate all noobs; we were all noobs once, and probably most of us are still noobs when you're compared to real developers who are actually building ROMs, but you'll get different answers when you also put in some effort to find a solution on your own, especially when finding the solution was not hard at all, and is given in the exact same thread you're posting in.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Budgiemanr33gtr:
Dude if you had a 0.5mbps download speed and a 15GB monthly allowance you would not be doing trial and error with 80mb packages.

I need my phone to be operational at all times and don't have the funds for a replacement so I need to be sure of what I'm downloading.

I understand the complaints you guys have about stuff not being handed on a platter but in my case I consider it vastly necessary for

me as I will suffer otherwise. Thank you all for the lectures but until I am able to become more prosperous I will remain cautious.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Budgiemanr33gtr:
It's not that I did not research, I knew all the options before I asked but did not know which one to choose... Like the OP does not say if Paranoid Android Gapps are compatible or not... And the OP clearly says the kernel is a Sony 4.3 variant. I am not asking for anything to be

handed on a silver platter just really confused as I have searched and came to discover that the more I searched the more confused I became between Gapps to kernel compatibility and incremental differences between the different Gapps releases. I see I have worded my initial

question in a slightly loose and problematic manner but my intentions were good. I just can't afford to experiment without reassurance and

therefore have the need to get all the info before I brick the device which allows me to work and schedule my life...

I'm not attacking anyone here as such, just am slightly frustrated at the generic "go find it yourself" statement even though I did in fact

look for the information before asking the question.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
What a load of useless OT..!

Btw I agree a good link in OP (a part from searching this thread, googling etc of course) could have avoided it, I tried to suggest adding banks' gapps in OP earlier with no luck..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] zandm7:
I can understand this, but at the same time it's not just about you. This isn't a commentary on you, because your specific question that you asked made more sense once you elaborated -- however, I think one should have enough knowledge to know that a 4.4 ROM can't run on a 4.3 kernel and that a "4.3-based kernel" is not the same as a 4.3 kernel, hence one should be using 4.4 Gapps from PA for a 4.4 ROM. But for the rest of us, we see updates to threads like this and hope for messages on development progress and instead we see the place flooded with many of the same questions, just from different people. Now, it's not like the questions themselves are stupid or unwarranted but 90% of them have been asked before in one way, shape, or form. So to those of us who have been participating in this thread or similar threads for a long time and learned a lot along the way, it seems like people are just not learning and are making all the same mistakes. Don't get me wrong, that's not WRONG by any means because of course you have to make mistakes to learn, and everyone starts out a complete n00b so of course they'll have questions, but it's just that seeing all the same questions is exasperating, whether or not it's really warranted.

I hope this helps you (and others) understand so you don't get the wrong idea, and don't feel discouraged when people lash out at your questions; they're not actually angry with YOU, they're usually just frustrated because they've answered that question many times before. I also hope that those who are capable of giving advice aren't as rude when answering questions at times, because we all started out helpless n00bs too.

:)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Budgiemanr33gtr:
Thanks for being considerate in your reply, I have been stuck on one ROM for a long time with this phone because as you all know dev support

for older Sony phones is atrocious and so I have not done any ROM installs in a while. Gone are the days when my trusty Galaxy S2 was bricked over and over trying to find the best ROM and at that time I learned a few things, but as I am in college at the moment and working a part time job, time is scarce and so is money. I searched through the thread (maybe not well enough) and found no exact answer to my question. The other threads on XDA had slightly convoluted info for me to be truly satisfied (I apologise for being so demanding but I think most people have at one stage been in my position. So yeah, thanks everyone for the nice comments (and the not so nice ones) and I will make myself scarce as of now as to not attract any more attention to myself...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] immerblind:
damn stop that discussion :eek:

i am on nightly 20140503.

am i the only one having a little bit trouble with GPS?

for example:

- open GPS (exact localization)

- then open runtastic

- runtastic isnt able to localize me (no GPS Signal)

my workaround:

- close GPS

- open runtastic

- then go to omnirom settings -> location

- open GPS

- then go back to runtastic

- now the application finds GPS signal without problems

so, dont get me wrong, GPS is working, but it seem to have a little bit trouble to start properly.

am i alone with that? is it a problem of the runtastic application maybe? has someone similar problem in another applications?

(clean installation of omnirom, pa gapps)

i try it out today again and try to catch a logcat...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] harowa:
No, but I have not investigated in detail that behavior.

I use my Xperia as a drivers logbook. Each first GPS lock after an interruption (pause, shopping, departure from somewhere) takes longer than a minute.

Stock ROM behaves promptly and earlier Omnirom versions (Android 4.3) also get very fast GPS lock.

You do have a working recovery right? Are you sure that the zip file you downloaded is alright?

If all fails you can always flash the factory 4.3 image from Sony. You will go back to stock, but you will have a working phone. From that point you can start fresh.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] scanno:
No you did not brick it yet. Do what I told you in my previous post. Flash the stock 4.3 rom and make a fresh start. If you see the Sony logo you still have your bootloader and you can use flashtool to flash the stock ftf

Thanks for the help. My phone was sitting there after I tried to get into the recovery and lo and behold, TWRP fires up,

So I said I'll give it one more shot and guess what? I got Omni on my phone. Who knew it would be so hard (not me anyway)

Has anyone problems with charging on phone off??? I see bootanimation but no charge indicator. Thanks.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
when I was with omni, it didn't work for me either. it started, but then black screen

strange thing was, that phone was actually on, pressing power button did show some life signs, and I could even call my phone and listen it ringing, but then still problems with the screen..!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] DontFadeAway:
I get something similar, if my phone fully discharges it starts to show the boot animation then the screen goes off and I just need to leave it to get some charge before the screen will stay on, this has been going on for quite a while as well so I just don't let it go completely flat.

Can the developer of this rom please implement faux sound capability into this kernel? And why am I not able to chose any other dictionaries in language and input settings?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Budgiemanr33gtr:
HELP

Ok, another problem, my PC can't find any files on my Internal Storage or my SD card, the two folders are just blank although windows says they are nearly full. I think it's a driver issue but I went through a few drivers (even PC companion) and nothing... Any help anyone????????????
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] thedisturbedone:
Open the folders and stay for a while. It will naturally refresh itself. This is what I have noticed at times.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] immerblind:
whats wrong with the rom's sound and dsp manager? :confused:

dictionaries? what u mean? i can choose different languages, and also i am able to see my dictionaries, add words etc...nothing seems wrong there
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] istux:
I think he means he needs having more than one dictionary in keyboard...

For example: I use Swiftkey as keybord and I set 3 languages, so when I write the first word in another language, it understands I've switched language and begins to suggest words/sentences in that right language.

It's a very useful feature :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] immerblind:
ah ok, yeah i have swiftkey too.

for switching language in stock keyboard it needs only one second, just push the globe button on keyboard.

and there are more than one dictionary, for every language one.

the only stupid thing with aosp keyboard is, if i save a word in english dictionary, but i also use that exact word in my non-english native language, then i have to save that word separately in native language dictionary again. but i think this isnt a bug.

besides that, no issues with keyboard.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] istux:
Agree...

that's why I always use Switftkey (and its cloud service): best money I ever spent on google market :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Budgiemanr33gtr:
The roms sound is pretty quiet as compared to the stock hybrid rom that had faux sound implemented. Also pressing the globe icon lets me use foreign letters but there is no new word prediction and when I go into the language and input options there are no dictionaries available. Where could I download the dictionaries? And no, I don't wanna switch to a different keyboard app.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] zandm7:
"new kernel"? What's that? Sorry for the n00b question.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] bartjeh1991:
In the beginning they used the android 4.1.2 kernel sources. Because we are on android 4.4.2 the sources were outdated and were causing random reboots. With the new android 4.3 update sony added new kernel sources which are more compatibal with android 4.4.2. And this means, no reboots :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] zandm7:
Oh that's all they meant by that? Haha I thought it was a "new" new kernel, like something new other than just 4.3 sources.

Sorry for the confusion! Thanks!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Budgiemanr33gtr:
2 hours of screen on time on minimum brightness is not good, is it?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] immerblind:
sorry, such questions are totally useless. what answers you expect now?

i could answer, that this is awesome, because you maybe track your 7hour bicycle trip with exact gps, 3g enabled and playing music all the time + you shoot some pictures of the trip.

but who knows, you give nearly no informations....so its another useless batterylife discussion. cheers

As far as I know that has not changed. You can make a shell script, name it userinit.sh and put it in

/data/local/

make sure to chmod 775 and chown root:shell

/data/local/userinit.sh is executed at boot time (with root permissions) and this way you can change the sysfs values.

Sorry for not elaborating the last time. Here is a screenshot that might shed some more light on my predicament.

Please tell me this ain't normal...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] DS-1:
After a month of 4.3 stock ROM (with only one charge per day, the one I do everynight), I'd like to try again OmniRom, 'cause I really love it.

Is there any one that noticed if the speaker volume is higher then in the old kernel version? Everytime I updated my OmniRom I had to replace the snd_soc_msm.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] cetronix:
Omni is still very quiet.. That's why I went to FXP CM11 which still uses old kernel sources but I really cannot feel that something is wrong compare to Omni and I had only two bluescreen in the first two days. Since then no problem. I will go back to Omni when the volume problem is fixed.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Budgiemanr33gtr:
As the other guys said, the sound is really quiet. So quiet in fact that my alarm did not wake me up the first morning after installation. Also I already got a few random reboots which had to be rebooted again as the phone stayed on the omni bootscreen. And as I said already the battery life is abysmal. I have sent a screenshot although it might not have sent properly so I'll resend it...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] harowa:
With the last stock roms (I tried some different 4.3 versions) I have had the very same problems, except the noise problems we have with omnirom now. The whistle problem isn't gone but better then before. The sound loudness is a problem, that's realy true.

But, the omnirom team has done a very good work in the past and they will find a solution, I am sure.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Xperia-S-Tony:
Hi! i have cyanogenmod 11 (latest nightly), and sometimes it crashes after blue screen. How can i fix it? i have read that the kernel of Omnirom doesn't have this bug. It's possible flash omnirom kernel in cm11? omnirom is based on cm11... can i do this? thanx!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] _Raziel666:
OmniROM is definitely not based on CM11. Both are based on AOSP and have their own modifications.

I believe that you can't flash the OmniROM kernel on a CM build and expect it to work.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] matt4321:
I think they share some code contributions

afaik you can't cross flash kernels since CM has a CAF based kernel and OmniROM has an AOSP kernel

You should go and ask @ the CM forums. Alternatively, you can try installing OmniROM.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Xperia-S-Tony:
I installed omnirom this night. i dont have blue crash yet. I have installed cyanogenmod only for theme engine and apply oneplus one style theme. Anyway to install theme engine or similar? I failed to install theme provider and theme engine apks from the system folder of cm11.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] _Raziel666:
It was discussed elsewhere that (possibly) one of the reasons that OmniROM is faster than CM or other AOSP-based ROMs, is the lack of a theme engine.
