I install the rom yestorday,till now,there is 10hours, It work fine,till now nothing didn't work,At least now I don't see any bugs.But just I want to install the GAPP,but can't download what uper-floor posted.If I can install PA-GAPP for this rom?

And also when I content the phone to computer,the phone only charge,the computer can't onpen the SDcard as USB dist。Is this a problem?

Did you reflashing the recovery after flashing the kernel into your cellphone?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Great_Geek:
Enable ADB , then charging will work fine. Need to talk to [MENTION=1171001]deedwar[/MENTION] , his commit breaks this
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Will push a fix if great geek doesn't fix before I get a chance away for a couple of days. I have been lax in updating the opensemc sources.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DoNuT_1985:
Thanks! ADB does the trick (till the next reboot) - I was sitting in front of my device, waiting for the indicator to jump from 91 to 92 percent... :D :D :D

So, we're back on 3.2 again... lets hope, its stable beside that. 3.2 isn't just kernel changes, there are also some upstream changes in it, right (not just a new kernel)? Noticed the new Trebuchet launcher as well as upgraded CM binaries (file manager...).
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DoNuT_1985:
As you can see from the posts above, there's a workaround for the charging issues - enable ADB and it charges as it should.

Beside that, I'm fine with it for now - it will take a few days of usage to judge battery life, which is really hard to do on Android in general due to our beloved Play Services, changing network connections and various other factors. :)

[MENTION=5022578]Great_Geek[/MENTION] Why aren't we allowed to restore Titanium Backups? :confused: :( I really need to restore a few apps.

---------- Post added at 04:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:30 PM ----------

I tried restoring a few apps and it worked fine :D :fingers-crossed: :good:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Yndi:
Thanks for the ROM, all of you working on it.

Some thoughts here:

First of all, if sb from Sony is reading this: It would be awfully nice if there was a hint on the bootloader unlock page, that it will delete user-data.

But to the ROM.

Nicely working so far. Had one crash(reboot) while trying to play a video and I see the SEMC screen when freshly opening GMaps, but apart from that, great.

Screen drains more battery then on latest stock jelly bean, probably due to HW-vsync. I see the same behavior on my Evo 3D. If the screen is of, the system does barely eat up battery at all :)

Thanks for the charge workaround. Does it really only work till next reboot?

How does it come that I cannot receive files without file extension via bluetooth or unpack such files from a zip?

To the devs:

Is there a reason why we don't use dalvik.vm.dexopt-data-only=0 and move at least the system dalvik to /cache? I mean we have nearly 250MB lying around there.

Also, since we have a dualcore phone, we should at least use the dexopt flag u=n!?

How come that we have so few RAM? Transition to ION? sultanxda has done some great remap for the Evo3D, we have 860MB there, however he already stated that it might not work on a 3.4 kernel...

And one more question/request: could you set the fstab parameters to data-writeback?

Thanks again!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] someone755:
I can confirm that the bug I've experienced in the version before (and posted about under "Bug Reports") has been fixed.

TiB restores also work flawlessly, as noted by the user before me.

Yeah, sure, blame the Aussie :P

I do have to ask though, which kernel branch was this built from? Kk_elite?

Looking at deedwar's fork, there's like a dozen of these elite branches xP

I have not encountered any problems with playback of youtube videos (or any other video sources), could you please post the link to one of the videos you've got problems with? So I could countercheck it.

I have to add that I'm using the beta 3.2 as a loop partition in a dual-boot setup, but that should not change anything about the video playback problem I guess.

Hello guys :) I successfully flash this to my xperia, so far i found some quite fix for camera here "credits for the owner" and i notice before when playing 1080p video the phone restart itself, i download some 3rd party apps in google play, that works fine. and i found out that we can install (my favorite album apps from xperia and walkman, sadly the movie didnt work) here "Credits for the owner" , and i dont know about someone who cant play video on youtube ?? mine working fine.

Battery not charging

Running this ROM for one day now, but my battery isn't charging anymore (never did). The phone is upgraded from OpenSEMC-U (Android 4.2.2 with TWRP recovery with kernel included). I hope the phone doesn't get bricked when the battery is dead and I can't charge it. I turned it off now, because I'm at work and can't change the ROM now.

(Facebook video and Instagram is fixed with editing a value in the build.prop)

Anybody know?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hmzuleta:
Don't push him. He's most likely still dealing with his exams. If he had left this project I'm pretty sure he would have let us know.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] someone755:
^ I don't want to be mean, but he doesn't feel like he'd do what FXP did, no matter anything. His surname is Hesse, damnit, he doesn't sound like a non-noble person.

Also, just this morning I got a message that my "storage space is running out". I'm guessing this is why we aren't supposed to restore TiB backups.

Though, a note to [MENTION=5022578]Great_Geek[/MENTION]: I had this message appear on Beta 3.1 with a clean flash and a single app installed (plus Gapps updates from Play Store). I'm not sure we should blame TiB on all this.

(Apologies for the spam and the tag, it's not fully un-important...)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] genecis:
Look at his signature though... The 'Sony Fuji Devices' is replaced by Nexus 7, Find7 and N1. I fear its only a matter of time until he says he's too busy with other devices to find time for our Nozomi (Not that I'm looking forward to it :p). His priorities have changed maybe. But I'm sure he'll inform before completely abandoning us.

Anyway, I flashed Beta 3.2 exactly as mentioned and I'm having problem with the battery calibration. Once it goes below 14%, it randomly says it's down to 1% and switches off. Then when I switch it on again and plug the charger the battery level is definitely more than 1% (last time it was 12%). Anyone facing something similar?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] m1st3r1:
I restored from tibu and didnt have this problem (using 3.2). What's the free size of your /data partition? If it less than 200mB then the warning will be shown. My guess it's the lost+found folder. Just delete it (i know it contains nothing, but it's taking up space).

This folder only takes space after first reboot. That's why first reboot usually takes more times. Nothing we cant do for the longer first time boot. But we can free up some space as been discused some times ago.

Other than that. Idk. It works fine with me.

[MENTION=5022578]Great_Geek[/MENTION]: Sorry for bugging you, but what are the prospects for a new build fixing the ADB/battery issue in Beta 3.2? :confused: I'm assuming, keeping your device in ADB mode on public networks isn't the best thing you could do... e.g. if you forget to disable it after recharging. :rolleyes:

When disabling ADB, my device is showing such entries in logs - not continously, but at least once when changing the setting...

Just posted my fix for the USB issue up to great geek to accept it, I dont see a problem with ADB being enabled all the time you still have to accept the connection request.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Great_Geek:
Thanks, Warren !

Hopefully, that'll fix it.

To the others, a new build from me will be pretty far off.

Besides rebuilding my linux based OS, I'm syncing the EOS sources and working with those.

RaymanFX hasn't finished his exams yet, so be patient.

He will focus mostly on the Oppo N1 & Find7, but I doubt he'll drop support for nozomi.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hmzuleta:

I have the option ticked at Developer Options, but it's still not charging. Do you mean something else?

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Redstarr1:
Why do you rely so much on someone else to maintain your phone? You could take responsibility yourself. You have to be less demanding.

And open your eyes, development is continuing. Deedwar has just made some new commits, it's not as if rayman is the only developer in the world.

Forcing responsibility on someone will only push him away. Rayman has never posted much, only when there's something to announce, and there isn't so don't panic. Do you not understand how much work exams are?

Not sure if Standards at xda are lowering or my understandings of responsibility and maturity are outrageous?

Anyways, to those of you who are not intending to push me on doing what I call an 'unpaid hobby', I am working on a new kernel.

All the new stuff is on my local hard drive obviously, since I don't push broken and useless code to GitHub. Long story short, I am working, but you won't see any of these works until I am satisfied with the outcome.

Nobody is going to be satisfied with a device performing mediocre than on previous OpenSEMC versions.

Alright, stay tuned guys. I'll be back :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Oscar96:
Rayman,please, DON'T listen these worrying people. There's a lot of people that is waiting you patiently. Our device couldn't be good as it is now without you. Also the other developers are going on working with your sources so no hurry. You're young and exams are an important step in you're life,you're future work will depend from this. So,don't listen about complaints and go straight! ?

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] xXFlippyXx:
the black screen before the opensemc logo is still there. it's even there, right after i have flashed the kernel.

what i have tried so far:

- normal installation via recovery

- install extracted kernel via fastboot

- install another kernel via fastboot and flash the rom

- install another kernel via fastboot, flash the extracted kernel from recovery, reboot, flash the rom

i've doublecheked on the file: it's not corrupt or something like that.

all there is left is restore stock fw with flashtool and then try again. but i can't do this at work :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tOrNadO™:
Guys i have a doubt.. This is for [MENTION=3463426]RaymanFX[/MENTION] too.. One S got a pretty stable CM11 build.. which has video playback working and other stuffs too that SXS don't.. Is it possible to port GPU drivers from that device? Both devices have same H/W right? I just thought may be we can be able to get rid of few bugs if anyone who knows about development just take a look over the coding... Just curious.. :/
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] heross:
I coming from 4.1 and have flash the uploaded kernel_a0.zip from CWM.

i can`t confirm a black screen on any boot.

first come opensemc logo->red LED->bootlogo and after ca.40sec it is full boot. :good:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bamboohao:
I had that black screen before kernel logo when i tried 10.2 last time, then i switched to omni 4.3, which solved the black screen thing( i flashed the boot.img in the zip) then i came here, which don't have that black screen either, i thought rayman solved it but it seems not. Maybe some of you who really want to get rid of that black screen could try flashing omni before this. :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RaymanFX:
Ummm, what exactly are you referring to?

1) Users say that ROM is laggy as hell. Checkout the thread.

2) They are using Linux 3.0 (kernel), whereas we are using Linux 3.4 (kernel). If I'd go back to Linux 3.0, we'd be having the same RIL issues we had with cm-10.1 and the 3.0 kernel, because I would need to use the elder propietaries (and move back to PMEM most likely).

I really don't think this would be any good, I might give it a try sometime, but not now. Also, if I wouldn't lack time so hard and if other developers could stop putting up stock roms that don't really differ from others (no hate here, just wondering a bit), we could be a dozen steps ahead.

Also, as I am using CAF display drivers, this has a future. One S C2 doesn't, because it uses legacy display drivers. These are facts.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tOrNadO™:
Exacrly bro.. Even i wonder.. If other devs were to join u and support u, may be we would have had been further ahead.. But sadly not everyone is interested in CM.. And thanks for clearing out my doubt.. After seeing your reply, it seems we are ahead of One S.. I personally feel your ROMs are a lot stable even for alpha builds.. And i have also noticed there are only major issues like camera, hdmi but never any small issues.. It seems you have perfected the ROM in every way possible.. Ofcourse we all know future builds from u are gonna rock and make our SXS feel alive.. Great work mate.. Cheers.. :)

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DoNuT_1985:
I wouldn't take the 'responsibility' thing too serious, there's no 'responsibility' for maintaining inofficial CM forks on unsupported devices in your spare time... without OpenSEMC (and FXP), we'd already ended up when an even more mediocre stock Sony 4.1.2 experience, and that ROM (beside its quality-checked stability) never felt as good as one of the OpenSEMC builds did...

Thanks for that, without your support I'd probably went for a new/Nexus device already, I clearly prefer custom ROMs over the sh*tty Sony software that was wiped off my device immediately after unlocking the bootloader on day one... :D

I'm keen on the new builds and (of course) understand your technical/challenging approach - OpenSEMC still needs some polish under the hood (though it works quite well in general), but please keep in mind that 'end-users' like us could live with 95% performance for the sake of stability - or in other words: everyday usability. ;)

Let's hope you get your local code mess sorted out soon - looking forward for new builds and an even improved performance on our beloved Xperia devices... :D

Does anybody use ART with beta 3.2?

[MENTION=3463426]RaymanFX[/MENTION]

Really nice to hear this.

You should takge a look at johnnyslt's(evolved from mirage666) kernel for the Evo 3D(although it's only 3.0). Since it's the same platform and I can compare these phones directly I have to say, that it works better. On the Evo I can use Interactive govenor(it's backported from 3.10, I think) with min_freq 192 MHz just fine. While on the X S interactive ~works~ but with pretty much battery drain. In fact battery drain of CM11 with screen of is notably higher than the latest original ROM. On the Evo, I nearly loose no battery with screen of.

I went to ondemand gov. for the moment on X S, but get pretty much lag when unlocking the phone or switching between homescreens.

Anyway, thank you very much for doing this!

Viel Glück noch beim Abi!

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DoNuT_1985:
As far as I can remember, you need TWRP (2.6.3.0) at least for the Beta 3.x versions.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] someone755:
The recovery version doesn't (shouldn't) really matter. They all write the files where the scripts inside the zip tell them to. The end result is the same: files are where they're supposed to be.

These kernels have TWRP in them anyways, don't they? They'll overwrite CWM iirc.

I've been flashing these with TWRP ~2.5, only updated a few days ago to 2.6.3.0. Though I'll bet even older versions and even CWM would work.

[MENTION=3004048]Homurato[/MENTION]: make and backup and try with CWM. If it works, it works. If it doesn't, you can restore the backup.

I've also found something for all the people who want more "free RAM" from the kernel: zipalign. This also increases smoothness, since less CPU power and RAM are needed, which also results in slightly increased battery life.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DoNuT_1985:
that's what I thought, too... maybe it's due to bugs or different file system handling... Nevertheless, I wasn't able to flash the first OpenSEMC KitKat Beta with the TWRP version I was using before (of was it even CWM, no idea, weeks ago...)

After I flashed the recommended version (a few pages ago in this thread IIRC), it instantly worked... So - if it doesn't work for somebody else - he should give it a try. There's so much more you could spend your costly time on. :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hmzuleta:
