Ohai people.

After a long time bringing up the EOS platform again, I finally got around to working on the XS again.

App crashes with the new kernel should be resolved and a few camera issues related to ION allocation got resolved, too.

I'll post a new test build by tomorrow probably, so stay tuned for that :)

Also, having finished school now, I'm looking forward to university at the end of this year.

However, I felt lately my build machine (an iMac 21.5" late 2009 (don't hate plox)) can't keep up with my compiling needs and I need more power.

Sadly, I lack the needed money to build a new rig, not by mouch though.

So I came across the idea of putting a donation link on my xda profile, although I tried to resist this as long as I could as you all know, and by no means would I ever advise you to donate to anyone at xda. It's all free development here and we need to keep it that way and not make this a place for people with the intention to earn money (I'm looking at you, *** (you all know who penetrated the XS development forums back then)).

Keep in mind a donation will NOT speed up my Xperia S development or give me super powers.

Also keep in mind donations do NOT influence the way I develop for the Xperia S in any way.

It MIGHT however improve the speed at which I am able to debug all my devices (Nexus 7, OPPO N1, OPPO Find7, and the Xperia S).

I'm still not sure on that by now. Trying to finish my work on our new kernel now.

Hi Rayman,

great to hear. I'm a little bit excited to see how the new version works.

One little (big) wish: could you, or someone else look at the bluetooth stack and at best make rsap working:

http://android-rsap.com/compatibility.html

Best wishes.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tebra:
Is it also possible to fix sip audio bug. No sound during video call with hangout. Thanks
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RaymanFX:
Hey, I just met you,

And this is crazy,

But here's my gmail,

So logcat maybe?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RaymanFX:
Okay, so here's the promised test build:

http://d-h.st/Ee4

Flash via recovery, and when booted, please start the terminal emulator and run the following:

su
setenforce 0
getenforce

And it should say: 'permissive'.

If it doesn't boot for some reason, boot into recovery and grab the file: /proc/last_kmsg, paste it somewhere and link me to that fail.

Note that this only works when directly rebooting into recovery right after the failed boot attempt. Else that file is useless.

Awaiting your feedback guys! :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] vayavalla:
Flashed on recovery (wiped everything).

Black screen after reboot.

I am not able to enter the recovery, it doesn't light the led.

I can reboot the phone with power and vol+, but it remains on the black screen

Going to work, will try later.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] heavens dragon:
blank screen after 1st boot(right after flash) nothing shows up have to flash another kernel to start the recovery so last_kmsg is not there
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dotted:
Black screen confirmed here as well
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RaymanFX:
Hold on then, I probably messed something up locally.

I'll upload a new bootimage when I'm home tomorrow.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] linus207:
Black screen. No splash no bootlogo. Just pushed another kernel by fastboot.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] wzhy:
Will you upload this version of kernel to the github?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] vayavalla:
I left the phone charging for quite a few hours, and now I tried to recover from the black screen.

I'm not able to enter flashmode or fastboot mode (connecting to the computer with Vol + or Vol - pressed).

Now I don't even get soft reboot or hard reboot (holding power and vol +)

Is there any other thing I can try?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mnashfaq:
"Call waiting is active" toast.

[MENTION=3463426]RaymanFX[/MENTION] can you please include the "call waiting is active" message that you get when the person you're calling is already in another call.? please include that feature in the next build.

thank you. :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] darknessmc:
I used boot.Img from previous version.

When setting wallpaper, the device reboot also gapps force closing randomly sometimes

Themes doesn't work and force close
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Phantasm4489:
there were some changes to the android_build package that stopped it from building properly. Deedwars change that was pulled in yesterday https://github.com/OpenSEMC/android...mmit/8cbaea4311dd88b922e611409e6490e9b9b36471 should allow it to build correctly again
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RaymanFX:
Yeah, I got that flag set locally too.

Compiling issues are no problem here, I believe boot was broken due to my 8x60 clock changes in this version.

I've reverted those and the new boot image should be up in a second.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Sanderth:
Thank you so much for this ROM! I've had like 4 different ROM's now apart from the stock Sony ROM, all four had their own kind of problems. Now that I'm back to CyanogenMod, it just works flawlessly!

I don't even miss all the good features of other ROM's! Now I know why CM is one of the best Android ROM's. It just works, plain and simple.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Looking forward to everything getting pushed to github so i can compile for the acro s. Thanks for this.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RaymanFX:
Okay, here you go guys: flash this boot image via fastboot after the zip I uploaded a few posts before.

See if this boots (it really should).

Once it booted, same procedure as described in the previous post please.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] genecis:
I can confirm that this one boots. Entered those lines too in Terminal Emulator and result was Permissive :good:

Edit: Used it for about half an hour and had three random reboots already. I managed to grab the last_kmsg via recovery after the last one and mailed it to [MENTION=3463426]RaymanFX[/MENTION]
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RaymanFX:
Thanks [MENTION=5484410]<(^^,)>[/MENTION] for being so fast!

Glad it works. Let me know if you still face random reboots and app crashes compared to the last test build I uploaded. [MENTION=1171001]deedwar[/MENTION], I need to figure out which of my clock changes actually made the device go crazy.

Once that's done, I'll upload all my changes and let you know.

I'll also upload a new test build that boots, for everyone, in one package.

Be aware video playback is still likely to be broken, but that's why I need you guys, to send me logs so I can fix that, since my father needs my Xperia S right now and I probably can't mess with it until this weekend myself.

Also, I got my things together and put up a donation link.

So if you want to help out an 18 year old teenager with his (sadly horribly expensive) hobby of doing android and buy me a new build box, that'd be appreciated.

However, let me be very clear with this from the start.

I encourage open source. I don't care what other people say, but my definition of open source includes zero restrictions and zero need to pay for anything.

A donation to me could by me my meal of tomorrow, or enable me to buy a nice present for my girlfriend. It might also pay my next paintball game or graphics card.

But it will not, in any case, influence the speed at which I will release anything, nor will it influence the quality of my work.

If you still feel like donating something, think about the money you're never going to see again.

You could also buy something nice for your wife, children or anyone out there.

I'm just a boy doing what he got into by accident, but grown to love.

And I don't like to see the Xperia S die. Why? Because android, just like any other linux distribution, should not require your device to be top notch and feature an octa-core that outperforms my PC's cpu. It should perform just fine on legacy devices as well, that's the gist.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] RaymanFX:
Hey,

weird, the log shows nothing suspicious other than some display issues.

But nothing that shouldn't have been around before...

Could you please do the following:

adb logcat &> logcat_crash
adb pull /proc/kmsg kmsg_crash

Let those two run in terminal while you are using your device.

Once it crashes, unplug the device, grab the two logs and send me those.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] cronot:
Sorry for the intrusion, just want to add a few more thoughts to further clarify what you said, because unfortunately some people in this forum is too dense to understand some rules and concepts... And please call me out if I say anything stupid.

So, guys, if you can and want to donate, please do - but keep in mind that buys you exactly nothing. To be clear:

You will not get privileged access to contact with RaymanFX;

Your pet issues / features on the ROM will not get priority over whatever RaymanFX is working on or has in his mind.

If you're going to donate, then think of it has a token of gratitude to what Rayman has been doing so far, and not for what he still is going to do. I know I will donate, I've done that before for other developers, and RaymanFX certainly deserves it - in fact, I have no other interest here but gratitude, because I've got another phone now and retired my Xperia S.

He being only 18, I can see he has a really bright future ahead!

Cheers!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] prohibeat:
Sorry to post non dev stuff in a dev thread but I need to say that people like RaymanFX make the world a better place to live. Good luck man, what you do is well appreciated beyond recognition.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Sanderth:
I agree!:)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
Just flashed the rom.. I was reinstalling my apps.. but weirdly after 10 minutes last 2 are still stuck

I'm using PA micro gapps

And in the logcat I even see lots of "W/NFC-LLC ( 3705): LLC length mis-match" errors.. If I'm not wrong these warnings were fixed with some updated blob included in 6.1.A.2.55 or 6.2.B.1.96

EDIT: phone just rebooted, last_kmsg attached

EDIT2: it's funny. Now I'm taking logcat and dmesg and no reboot has occured
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
So, finally after an hour phone rebooted. I took logcat and kmsg as previously said
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
Soft reboot this time

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] fer2503:
i have installed this rom on xperia s. I have 2 questions:

1. is possible to install the new theme chooser of cm11?

2. Is possible to install other kernel that allow overclock of cpu and gpu?

thanks :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] someone755:
For the first, no. It's a ROM feature, not an APK. Paranoid Android has implemented it into their latest Beta build though.

Second, yes! Deedwar, the creator, has it in his builds of Paranoid Android. Alas, there's no GPU scaling yet and there is a small bug inside (it's annoying but doesn't break functionality)(I have pushed a fix and added GPU scaling, he just needs to look through the files and merge them). Only 3D GPU OC and CPU OC to 1890 MHz.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] fer2503:
So if i want the new theme chooser and overclock i have to install paranoid android rom for xperia s? Is more stable and fast than this?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mithab:
Its definitely more stable but not sure if faster!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] saimsameer:
May i know the link of this rom which is working fine because i am confused after reading last 3 pages....could anyone help me?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] andreacorti:
read more than 3 pages.

there are almost-stable builds and tests builds.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Yndi:
OK, I finally installed the latest build (wanted to wait until a complete package is uploaded, but I had to try :) ).

Flashed over beta 3.2 and it's a LOT faster/more responsitive now.

I went to performance to switch from 'performance' to 'interactive' governor and hit my first reboot. Second try of changing it worked. From then on pretty nice experience, until now when I plugged it in:

adb has to still be enabled for me, in order to charge and worst: Phone reboots when I turn the screen of at the second time power button press.

One press: screen on

Second press: Nothing happens

Third press: Screen of, reboot after ~3s

I also had the feeling that the power button does not work every time in normal usage but I'm not sure about that.

I'll maybe try to get a log but I've not much spare time until next weekend.

Thanks everyone who reports here. And to the devs, of course :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] andreacorti:
leave catlog in background ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] genecis:
Was your device on airplane mode?

The device reboots when it's on airplane mode/there is no network and you turn the screen off.

And yes, the power/lock key certainly is less responsive. Often you have to press it twice to do the job. I thought it was the key itself but I used another ROM and it responds in the first try. So it's definitely the ROM.

I had sent the logs of both issues to RaymanFX so he knows about it [emoji6]
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] andreacorti:
I sent him logcats about the wake button problem (sometimes it takes a few minutes to wake up and sometime it doesn't ), but in my log only audio driver problems shows up ... Maybe you're luckier ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Yndi:
No, it wasn't. But it takes certainly long to connect, like 20s.

I heard the phone hat lots of reboots today :/

I'll go back to kernel from 3.2 and see how this goes.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Yndi:
And another one:

Old kernel does not work, phone does not boot.

The phone reboots very frequently, if display is off for more then 5s it is impossible that it stays on. for me.

Since it happens frequently I got a log, but I (am not a dev) cannot see anything at the end. Maybe a dmesg/logcat, but I have to flash 3.2 back in a few minutes.

[MENTION=3463426]RaymanFX[/MENTION]: What is this Setting for, you wanted us to set via terminal? SElinux? Is it important? If so, why did you not add an init.d script for it?

Best
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Great_Geek:
Okay, this stuff works without major f*ckups..

Don't ask for a release.

It'll be out when I fix random reboots & an issue with RAM being hogged
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] darknessmc:
thats great. CM11 4.4.3

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Sanderth:
ROM was working great for me at first, it still does. However, I've noticed since yesterda that battery drains insanely fast. It's like 10% per hour now when I don't even use my phone, first it wasn't that bad. For example, yesterday. I rarely use the phone from 8:00 till 16:00, however when I checked it at 15:30 it has drained to 30%!

Location service is off, Wi-Fi is on all day. Turning it off is no option, I still want to receive my messages and stuff.

Android Operating System is at the top of the list for battery stats.

Note: I don't mean this as a bad thing, just trying to kind of help. Maybe it is something in the ROM that's causing it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
This is a bad thing indeed

Install betterbatterystats and check your wakelocks
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Sanderth:
Thanks, I installed the free XDA version of BBS. Is this the one you mean or do I need the paid version?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] rolex0815:
Free version is fair enough.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Sanderth:
Okay, the problem solved itself (kinda).

Figured I haven't restarted it yet, well since I did it's good again. Lightly using my phone (just sent some messages, using 3G). I fully recharged it before doing that. It's been like 1 hour and 40 minutes and it drained to 94%. Great battery life, once again!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] chanchari:
Hi, I have the same problem as you, with battery drain. Plus, I installed the app "betterbatterystats", does it solve the problem itself?

What do I have to do? any sttings to chenge??

Thanks in advance...I'm a noob user in this matters..:silly:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Sanderth:
Well the reboot I did solved the problem. I'm no expert on this whatsoever, you'd have a better chance to just keep checking te stats. Maybe there's an app using alot of battery.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
Betterbatterystats gives you better.battery.stats

Open it, and check kernel and partial wakelocks.

There you'll find what's eating your battery. Give it root permission and move it in the system partition if you even need further details (alarms)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Iris Yuga:
I still got LONG REBOOT problem (~2 mins) on 3.2 Beta, any help will be appreciated :)

Edit: Problem fixed after 3 reboot :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
Logcat would have helped
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] chanchari:
Hello!

I have the lastest version beta 3.2 and it works almost perfect... I've got an annoying bug...and I don't know what issue is causing it.

I solved battery charge problem by enabling "debugging mode", however I never switch it off (Could be this?)

Then I noticed that my battery drained too fast, and I saw in the thread that an app called "betterbaterystats" solved this problem by showing you what is draining your battery.

But the most annoying bug I have notice in the past days is: the phone radomly switches off and phone calls sometimes cut off.

Sorry for my english.

NEED HELP!! :crying:

Thanks in advance.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] chanchari:
Hi,

Thank you for all your help. I've downloaded the app. I gave it permission but I don't understand what you quoted: "move it in the system partition if you need...." (move, what??) :confused:

Anyways, this what I see and eats my battery the most in my kernel and partial wakelocks, is it normal?

PARTIAL WAKELOCKS:

RILJ

MediaScannerService

*sync*/google.android.gms.people......

Audiomix

KERNEL WAKELOCKS

"msm_otg"

"PoweManegerService.WakeLocks"

"usb_bus_active"

"bq24185_watchdog_lock"

THANK YOU!!!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
msm_otg, usb_bus_active, bq24185_watchdog_lock wakelocks should be completely normal, since they are triggered by battery charging

PoweManegerService.WakeLocks instead should regroup all partial wakelocks

RILJ is the radio modem

MediaScannerService I think it's self explicative

and *sync*/google.android.gms.peoplee should be google contacts app syncing

But I'd like even to know which is frequent and which is rarer
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Great_Geek:
Okay, I'm going to need some dedicated souls to test a build for me & get logcats of everything that breaks

(I'm too lazy to get the logcats myself, after a day of work)

Random reboots here and there.. I use it as my daily driver, so it's pretty functional.

Especially need logcats & kmesgs of the random reboots.

Shoot me a message via Whatsapp / Hangouts if interested.

RaymanFX has a Nexus 7, Oppo N1 AND an Oppo Find 7 to work on

If you haven't been paying much attention, his father uses the XS now

And there isn't going to be much difference between the builds thanks to this wonderful thing called GitHub

Here is my build of kernel source code : https://github.com/wzhy90/sony_msm8x60 branch cm-11.0, which is starting with OpenSEMC's kernel source from branch kk_elite.

I didn't cherry pick some of OpenSEMC's branch cm-11.0 commits and cherry pick some deewar's commits which I need.

My kernel have not any random reboots at all!

sorry for my bad English

Hi, I'll add you to my whatsapp to chat about my ramdom reboots if that, doesn't bother too much :good:

Then you can tell what do I need or what should send to you in order to fix the problem, in order words, I think I'll be your "slave" or as you claimed you "test soul" hehe

Thank you very much for the such quick respond.

Using it for over a week...^_^
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
Radio as in "GSM radio", not FM radio
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] chanchari:
Hi,

Are you being ironical or the Rom is truly stable?

Thanks.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] piyush95:
Haha...

It really is very stable...

No random reboots till now...And tons of features..

Plus it's based on 4.4.3..

What else do you want?

XD

Sorry for stupid question..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] prohibeat:
Can you stop spamming this thread with things that are not related to development of this rom? It just clutters the thread and can confuse new users. Take you unofficial builds to new threads and newbie questions to discussion threads in general section.

Flash error

Hi everyone i' m having an issue with flashing the rom. I downloaded the beta 3, installed twrp 2.7.1 (the latest) using this command

su
dd if=/sdcard/fotakernel.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p11

but it fails to flash.. My device is running jelly bean 4.2.2 pacman rom. Can you tell me if there is something to do to solve this situation?? :( :(
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
Last stable rom version is this

Then what flashing fails? Rom or twrp ?

If it's the first try to extract the kernel (boot.img) from the zip file and flashing it via fastboot (fastboot flash boot boot.img)

If it's the second, well check if twrp is really there! Or just try openrecovery script included in goomanager app
