Pushed an update to PA with a new kernel that has the fixed freq (thanks to [MENTION=4275152]someone755[/MENTION]) also increased RAM should be around 720MB now let me know if there are any unforseen issues with this.

Still looking into the VOIP issues and things like Hangouts not working and it dont think my push with screenshots will get added as it is something that only effects us and it is in an important repo that every device uses.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] xyrovice:
Thanks for the update deedwar! Also, I really appreciate you looking into a solution for the Hangouts microphone. Is it possible that'll be in the next update? Could we see it in your CM11 sooner? Thanks for the hard work!

Future of Paranoid Android

Hi [MENTION=1171001]deedwar[/MENTION]

Your last build of PA for our Acro S has been Superb. Fast. Stable. Reliable. I was wondering if you have plans to continue your amazing work for our aging device? I hope I am not being selfish! But I am just too hopeful! :fingers-crossed:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
I keep the sources uptodate on Official PA and i always build for Acro S when im testing my next build for the XS because usually if it works for our device it works for thiers.

The next time i do a build i will upload and post a link.

When I flash your rom, I got error: "assert failed: (get prop...)". So I remove it from updater-script and reflash but still stuck at Paranoid logo.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Just flash the boot.img and flash the original zip the img should fix the problem of prop I'm not sure why it should be stuck technically what you did should work
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nqhuy90:
Thanks for your reply.

I did these steps:

1. Flash stock rom 6.2.B.1.96

2. Flash cobrato kernel.

3. Flash your boot.img

4. Flash your rom.

5. Flash gapps.

But it still stucks at Paranoid animated logo :confused:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tomest:
try to go in recovery and wipe all and reflash zip.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nqhuy90:

Formatted system, data, cache and flashed it. Bricked my phone. Wouldn't turn on.

Sony Update Service rescued it.

Press the volume up and power button for 30 seconds then plug it into a wall charger or the dock for a few hours and it should work. Nothing the flash does should effect the bootloader

Unfortunately i have a problem with this ROM.

At first i've tried to flash w/o wiping a Data partitions. Booted up fine, but android.phone keeps crashing. Tried to wipe contacts data, it didn't help.

Ok. Back to the Beanstalk, used a Titanium backup to backup my SMS/MMS and all the needed apps.

Performed a full wipe, flashed a Paranoid. Booted up fine, works smooth. But if i restore a SMS/MMS storage from titanium backup the android.phone starts to crash. The only way to restore it is to wipe all messages. The same thing happens with an omni ROM.

I don't want to lose my SMS/MMS. Is there a way to fix this issue? Beanstalk is a great ROM, but the memory leaks in a System_UI are a little bit annoying...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
No idea sorry. You could try installing another sms backup program and using that. I have compiled kitkat beanstalk and i just have one issue with sound that i will hopefully fix tomorrow (bit late to fix it tonight) if you want to wait and install that instead that is another option.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Manyak_izh:
I've tried different messaging backup programs previously, starting from a 4.1 android and it seems like all of them have issues :( But i'll sure try if there's no workaround.

WOW! It's worth trying :) Sounds great, hope there'll be no problems with messaging.

P.S. I've had a problem with android.phone crash on a beanstalk, right after i've flashed it w/o wipes on a CM 10.1, but i was able to solve them by deleting a contacts data and resynicing with my google accounts.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Not as easy as i thought to fix the sound issues will continue to try a few things but wont be out this morning. In the meantime you might have to retry some of those other backup apps.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Just a small update for this ROM, the kitkat version of it is very ALPHA. Doesnt have any advanced settings or per app DPI so will be a while before release. I can upload a ROM if enough people ask but the way it stands all it essentially is, is AOSP
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nqhuy90:
Could you upload the zip file of update package?

Hey,

I did a fresh install including full wipe/cache/dalvik. Was running FXP before. Anyway after entering PIN there is a box "Unfortunately, Setup Wizard" has stopped followed by gapps has stopped which keep respawning and no UI is loaded. Any ideas? Thanks!

EDIT: apparently gapps is not included, same as with CM? Strange though it block the rom from starting. Also, seems it replaced CWM with TWRP, I think that should be at least mentioned because I cannot use my CWM backup from old ROM now.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Cw

I haven't used CMW since my first rom days. Just flash your old rom zip from twrp and you will have cwm again to use your backup. But if you are going to use any of my roms your going to have to make the move eventually.

You will need to format system to or else it brings the old gapps that is why it is blocking start up
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] odtx1:
Thanks. After fixing gapps everything seems quite allright. Good job with this :)

EDIT: is there any known GPS issue? Seems enable GPS has no effect.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Maybe there is i will look into this.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Just uploaded the 4.0 Alpha it is very alpha in features but rock solid as i can tell.

If you install the 4.0 ALPHA it wont have TWRP so NO recovery you will need to install the BOOT.IMG from my beanstalk 4.4 to get it back i forgot to fix it before i uploaded it and i have to go to work so no time to fix.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] odtx1:
After running this ROM over the weekend I have only 2 remaining issues: HW video acceleration not working (green screen), GPS not working. If I'm the only one, please suggest ways to fix it as I definitely plan on staying with the ROM since its otherwise very smooth and stable with great battery usage (I havent had Screen as my main battery consumer in ages, always was Android System before :).
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tomest:
confirming GPS problem - does not work at all
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Yeah sorry i changed some settings and HW access wont work and i forgot to include the GPS drivers so that is why it doesnt work. Have been trying hard to get the camera fixed so i have been waiting on that before a release.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tomest:
I'm on 3.99 RC-2 , if i update to latest alpha, do i need to wipe everything or just flashing on top and where to get gapps for that alpha?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
I don't know sorry I always wipe to make sure there are no issues
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] odtx1:
I awent from 3.99 to 4.0 without a full wipe. Just the new ROM and new pa_gapps-4.4 and cleaned the cache. It took a while to upgrade all apps, but no issues other than what we already know. And by the way - It's very nice to run kitkat on our "old" device. Marvellous! :)

Deedwar: would it be possible for you to include stk.apk in /system/apk for your future releases. Its the SIM Toolkit app that does different things when you have toolkit-enabled SIM. Ie. it does not bloat the ROM when you dont have a SIM with support for it in the first place.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] PurlingNayuki:
I have to use AnyConnect to make VPN work. The build-in VPN manager doesn't seem to be able to set up a usable connection. It can only last tens seconds(and it's just lasting, no internet via the VPN) then it tells me it has disconnected.

I did state somewhere that ART wasnt working properly so probably a good thing it isnt possible to change anymore. Has a lot of fc's.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Ok just built a new version. Download.

Changelog is:

* version is 4.4.1

* fixed screenshots being blurry

* can record now but you need to download focal and use that.

I had to use my goo.im account again instead of xda download because over the last couple of days every time i try to upload it stops on verifying.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nqhuy90:
I have some bugs:

- Problem with thumbnail of recently running apps.

- Camera got freezed when using some 3rd apps.

- MX Player got FC when playing videos.

And could you bring back PA layout setting in next version?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
2 Of the 3 bugs i have fixed in the version i just posted before your report. The 3rd is because MX player tries to use the hardware decoding, if you tell it to use software decoding it will work fine. Trying to figure it out. I cant bring back PA layout because it isnt part of PA yet.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] nqhuy90:
Thank you for quick support. I used software decoding but still got FC.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
I personally use Dice player and by default it uses hardware on some file formats and not on others so i had to go threw and tell it to use software on each type. I havent used mx before but i imagine it would be something similar if i get a chance i will take a look at it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] PurlingNayuki:
Just use Xposed+AppSetting to enjoy some similar feature.

I have a problem with entering the play store on with 4.4.1 - something about enable background data (which is already enabled) and when I press Allow it just gives me a list of accounts on the phone. So I thought is a play store issue, but also with the gapps for 4.4.1 the issue remains.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] PurlingNayuki:
Screenshot is working properly now and it seems to be a little more fluently. Video playback is kind of buggy. VPN is still buggy(should I try a data wipe?) but in a word, it's fine to be daily used and worth a try.

Sent from my Xperia acro S
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Sorry i havent had playstore give me any errors so i have no idea. You can try using gapps for slimrom i have been using those myself for the latest release just to see if there were any differences.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Video playback is screwed. Definitely something that needs to be fixed. I only tried for an hour or so with my VPN provider Private Internet Access and it worked just fine and i always do a full wipe. I cant see how it would effect it but then it can do strange things.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] PurlingNayuki:
Back with a full wipe and things get a little bit strange. VPN is not fully working. By this I mean, when I use the VPN feature provided by system it lets me to connect but actually it isn't work. It just tells me that it's working and disconnect automatically within seconds or minutes. For the time being I use VPNCilla to manage my VPN and it just works fine.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tomest:
Youtube app not working. It shows the videos but can not play. Is that only my problem?

Nothing that i can see. I dont really go looking to much. Just see what they have changed in source. They have updated to the 4.4.2 branch and i have fixed up the video and camera to work fully. Cant remember what my last release had.

Just uploaded a new version with the latest updates and whatnot.

You have to extract and install "Boot.img" on fastboot, then you can install this rom :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
You will need to flash my boot.img file before you can flash the zip. The problem when you are coming from most of the stock roms is that the update-script has either had the prop details removed or are wrong entirely so it actually thinks you have a different device. Mine however is formatted the way it should and so it errors out. If you flash my boot.img file from the zip it will fix up the problem. That is why i suggest that step not because most people need it just because the few people who come from another rom need it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] andacro:
Thanks to both of you for the help! :)

Hey. The latest beta is pretty fantastic, only issue remaining I have is that it takes a very long time for the call display to appear (up to 5 seconds) - its just a back screen until then.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
I have noticed there is a way to make sure that the phone app persists in memory i will make sure that this is the case in the ROM next time around. Should be mind you.
