PA nozomi v4.6 beta won't restart into ROM

When I installed the v4.6 beta PA phone started and it booted into the Rom but second time when I restarted it's stuck at the Sony Logo and won't boot into the ROM.

Please help me. :confused:

Keep calm. It's normal.. Just wait or force it to reboot again (with power + vol+). It will work then

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hmillos:
Ok guys,

I just wanted to share this with you,

first, thanks [MENTION=5169817]bamboohao[/MENTION] for your post, I came to great help when my xperia was on that horrible FXP recovery.

unfortunately, I flashed "fastboot flash boot flashed openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.1-LT26i.img" (don't do this) and my phone was stuck at TWRP after that, the only way to correctly flash this is using the shell/terminal emulator command. it's the same file but if you flash it wrong you will get bricked.

I just want to write here what I did, in case someone makes the same mistake. also, I must say tthat I didn't have any file in my phone, becasue they were downloading when i flashed twrp.

1. Flashed kernel.sin from stock firmware (extracted ftf) using fastboot flash boot kernel.sin, you need to know that your phone won't stick in fastboot mode due to that damaged recovery, so you need to send the command with your device disconnected, then you go to recovery and turn off the device, after that, you press vol up key and connect usb cable, after that you'll have stock kernel again and that recovery would be gone.

At this point you would be able to enter your ROM and flash TWRP correctly (remember that it won't work with stock firmware kernel, so better flash Kernel from this ROM in step 1)

Guys any news on update to android l??
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mobfest:
New Issue

I am using this Rom from 3-4 days, quite happy with it. found two bugs (may be):

1. The screenshot taken is distorted.

2. The small previews of the open application in the task manager is distorted.

3. When I call any numbers (Sometimes) the call will connect but the screen will remain blank. The In Call options appear after 1 minute or so.

Beautiful ROM, but these things trouble in real-time scenarios. Please let know if there is a work around for this. Can it be fixed?

Thanks

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
First of all, as long as you didn't mess up with TA partition fastboot is going to stick.

If it isn't it's just broken windows drivers that decided to *****

Then, our phone has no dedicated recovery partition, the only thing you can flash from fastboot is the kernel.

To access FOTApartition and flash external recovery you need either adb or terminal emulator
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hmillos:
Well, youre definitely right, my drivers didn't work so well last night and I had to do many things in order to make it work. Speaking of drivers, I installed Beta 6 but my computer doesn't recognize the pone, not as mtp device nor adb (it worked in ICS stock ROM) so, I'm sorry to ask this, but didn't find anything related in my search, is there any other drivers that should be installed?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mirhl:
No, drivers are more or less always the same.

Check Windows's device manager for problems

What's the app with the shortcut? With some apps, if you transfer them to the mass storage, sometimes the shortcuts disappears..

---------- Post added at 04:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:39 PM ----------

For the issues n. 1 & 2 you just have to flash the screenshot fix (use the search button in this thread)

For issue n. 3 there is no solution, it's a bug of the rom. Try to press the on/off button (but first disable the "ending call" function of it) or to put the phone on a table and then lift it in vertical again.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mr.sky10295:
Actually its not about the app. No matter Whichever app shortcut I keep there same thing happens.

I request everyone, using this ROM, that plz check whether this bug is with you also or its just me.

Pink static screen in camera

Hi,

I have installed PA 4.45 on my father's Xperia S. While everything else works fine, when I open the Camera app, all I see is a screen with pink static, with only the click photo button visible. What should I do to resolve this? This issue persists with third-party camera apps too.

Thanks,

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] GjorgiDxc:
Install the latest beta, this prob was fixed for a long time. why did you flash such an old build ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] parag14:
I flashed this build just because it was the last stable release, and was a bit apprehensive installing beta releases. So there aren't any huge bugs in the latest beta release?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] GjorgiDxc:
Yup, it's the most stable build of the rom, everything works fine and smoothly, there are few features missing, but i'm sure your dad wouldn't mind, go find it a few pages back it was posted by deedwar.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dumbl3:
I just installed this ROM yesterday, for now its working great. Ill post back later, to see what happens after some time. There were some issues at installing (black screen, recovery not working). But it seems these are known issues. It would be helpful if someone puts install instructions/ FAQ in the second post of this thread which is been 'reserved' since December 2013. It would help people asking the same question all over again, and also the people complaining the questions have already been asked.

Here's a start, just have to copy/paste it:

Some install tips:

- Do not fastboot install boot.img first, which I commonly do. As you won't be able to enter recovery to flash the ROM.

- I used twrp stock kernel to be able to flash the ROM. Won't be necessary if you already a working recovery..

- Don't forget to flash GAPPS right away, because after you flash the ROM you won't be able to enter the recovery. And without PlayStore and a file browser its a pain to install TWRP again.. Although you could use adb shell commands via the PC to install twrp.

Black screen while entering recovery!?

See the above, install TWRP. And specifically version 2.8.0.1. Newer versions of twrp don't work, as of yet..

How to install TWRP?:

Put on your .img on your SD-card. And either use a terminal emulater from playstore or ADB shell commands:

'Clear recent apps button' is behind the apps?

It's because you activated 'recent card stack view', and stack view does not work properly. You can reset this preference via Settings > 'Backup & reset' > Reset preferences > Recent card stack view. Just make sure you click No next time it asks to activate 'recent stack view' :cyclops:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] vishals16:
If you mean without wiping data, I don't think so (may create problems).

Otherwise, install it normally. Wipe data, cache, dalvik cache. Then flash the rom and gapps. You can use the same gapps you used for carbon kk. You can just backup your apps and data using titanium backup etc and restore it once you switched the rom. Will save you a lot of time.

I have the xperia s only a week, so I don't know if this device always was sluggish.

I compare it to my Nexus 4 or even a cheap Freelander I10 1Gz dualcore.

I'm running Beta 6 and as people have said, the new build seems smoother. However, I think I'm suffering one or two gremlins:

I'm noticing problems switching between WiFi and 3G in that the phone is not always getting an internet connection from the 3G signal despite good signal strength. I can text and make calls and I have data in my plan, just... no IP address.

Second is that the new build does not seen as happy switching to and pairing on Bluetooth. I use Poweramp and whereas before I could switch on my headset and listen straight away, I now get the pairing and Poweramp starting up - even showing that it is playing - but no sound and the track seems frozen in that the time indicators do not change. Plugging my headphones directly into the phone makes it play normally as you expect.

I'll try to get a logcat of these and submit, but wondered if anyone else had noticed this???

The mobile data quick settings button has always acted odd for me, at least it works a lot better now than in beta 1 or 2. Sometimes it takes a few presses on and off to get data working. But data doesn't work for you at all? Quick settings is one of the things that the PA team mentions almost every time in their changelogs, it's a work in progress.
