I flashed cwm without deleting recovery tar from the rom zip. It went to cwm but had the twrp lights, and would not mount external SD without rebooting cwm. Do we have to delete the recovery tar? And btw, the miui recovery in development is pretty slick.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MrGezz:
no you don't need to , but follow optimumpro post here
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:
Thanks for the effort, it goes into twrp recovery, but nothing works.I flashed cwm over it and everything works. Im using miui, so I flashed this fresh, but had to go back to cwm. If you start with cm10, the recoevery is fine.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
Just overwrite the step2 script with the one I attached a few posts ago and you won't have any TWRP lights. You will go straight to CWM.

---------- Post added at 05:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:51 PM ----------

I have run this ROM for a few days and the only issue I faced was Android OS taking 25-30% of battery life resulting in 5% an hour battery drain. This was due to overly aggressive OOM settings. Interestingly, making an init.d script with lighter values wouldn't hold after reboot, but I managed to fix that by using system tuner pro and only after ticking "apply values at boot" the values would hold. It is a good app, which unlike other managers, is extremely light and has virtually no foot print on memory or battery. So, now I am down to 2-3% an hour.

I won't look back at any other rom for a good while.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MrGezz:
could you share the script you're using , for us to use it too :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
The init.d script doesn't hold after reboot, (I checked parameters), so I use system tuner pro, because it has 2 choices: apply at boot and init.d. Apply at boot does work, but I couldn't find where it makes the changes, I mean from what script the call is made at boot. I just verified that new values are there.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] madmanj:
The BT xfer issue does not appear to be ROM specific, as it is not repeatable between several windoze machines I tested.

The MS BT stack is a bit flakey on recieving from some sources unfortunately. (go figure)

Sending to the phone from the windoze hosts with this rom is solid. :good:

Battery Life Fix

The same way as I did in my AobaPro rom, I am posting the battery fix for this one. The value in framework-res.apk for battery capacity reflect Xperia S. ION has a larger battery. As a result the system thinks our ION has 1750 battery, while in reality we have 1900. So, the percentages we see are incorrect.

Attached is the zip file with correct values. Just flash in CWM or TWRP, clear dalvik cache and reboot. In my AobaPro, there was a 10-12% gain.

working great for me, only problem I have with any international ROM is weird noises during calls, It gets fixed with a reboot. Other thing is that dsp manager gets errors when ever I play music on apollo.

Amazing rom. Almost perfect. Had some crashes but nothing serious.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dad2dj:
Recovery is still an issue even after trying recommended fixes. Ext sd not mountable sometimes and reboot to recovery still not working. Looking forward to updated release with flawless recovery. It's really exciting getting CM on my ion though. Thanks for everything.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:
About recovery, be careful. If you reboot cwm in advanced it will see the external sd card. I did this though, and had trouble, backed up cm10 to external, then wiped system, data, etc.to flash a rom from the external, well, it wouldn't mount, I ended up having to start over with stock, root, recovery.. Because wiping system wipes recovery.

This cm10 is a super rom, regardless of recovery.

Sent from my SeXperia Ion
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dad2dj:
Yeah, did the same thing. Had to start over just to restore previous rom. I'll just wait until this is ironed out.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] NITISH RAWTE:
[MENTION=4702456]anoevo[/MENTION] if you've downloaded .part files then place all of them in one folder. If you have winrar then just right click in any one of them extract.

If you still get an error then your download is incomplete as said by fernoct. Don't pause while downloading zip or part files download one time,complete.

Don't change file extensions.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
If you don't use twrp, you should really use my modified step2 script, which you can just manually transfer with right permissions. Otherwise, you will be mixing CWM with twrp. By the way, if you transfer your CWM backups to twrp directory, you should be able to restore them with twrp.

---------- Post added at 11:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:14 PM ----------

This ROM has no bugs other than non blinking LEDs and Android OS working too much. And I suspect stock kernel is responsible for the latter, because logcat shows continuous calls for nonexistent resources: think NSA..

Most other problems are caused by closed source Google thugs, oops, gapps, and FB. Also, Sony bloat and your nasty social apps. If you want this garbage, eat it, but don't blame this ROM.

Edit: The second part was NOT directed at you, but rather a general post to all, but for some reason my post got coupled with this one. Sorry.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MrGezz:
there is a reason why even letama use TWRP , check his post here
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dad2dj:
TWRP working fine with ext_sd but still wont reboot to recovery. Minor problem to have to hit vol up and down.

Haven't tested cwm backup moved to twrp directory. If someone could confirm that works, that would be nice.

There is a bug though with dock icons disappearing. It's annoying but rom is great otherwise.

Does this CM support icon changes in themes? Also, can someone recommend some themes to try out.

Edit: Camera does not have ext_sd default save location. That's important.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MrGezz:
still don't know why some of you have to press vol + and - , as for the backup , it won't work , use tb for backup data, I really recommend that , I use circles theme for this ROM ..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kin912:
"reboot to recovery" only work with the recovery in boot.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MrGezz:
I exprienced the same bug for cm10 (UB)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ioner:
great rom great work...but i had to install it fresh 3 times

as after flashing the battery fix it wont boot at all

and i did clean cache

has someone else experienced it too?

update -V3-

v3 will be up this night or later (uploading in process) ,

-latest version from FXP

-framework patch from optimumpro does not included because it lead to bootloop (thus the the battery capacity still 1750)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
There may be issues with this patch if flashed by CWM, however, TWRP does it fine, confirmed. However, here is the latest patch:

http://d-h.st/9Zz

Both files confirmed working when flashed in TWRP. Just clear dalvik cache only.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MrGezz:
btw , just wanna inform , I'll be uploading the file needed to patch CM10 to work for LB , it's up to you to tweak it and test on how to make a ROM :) hahaha, just saying
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
I am not sure what you mean. This rom does work for LB...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MrGezz:

next one, for who ever that want to try, download this patch

please do read this post here
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Najuto9tail:
whats the difference in v3 from v2? The battery patch? I have noticed that my phone battery does not last long enough. Even though the phone have never had this experience of deep sleep, and low cpu use. Rom is great. :)

I am downloading v3 to try out... for what is the patch included?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MrGezz:
the battery patch is included , and the ROM now based on latest FXP release.. and some change in build.prop .. the patch download link , is for those who want to build their own CM10 LB version , or something like that.. haha
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Najuto9tail:
Can we just flash over the previous version?

Another thing, I love twrp recovery, it works better. :) Thanks
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MrGezz:
yes you can , glad someone say that , thanks :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
The patch is not downloadable. You have to share that folder. :)

Tried installing v3 and got stuck on cm boot animation. Has anyone installed it successfully?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Zorbeyd:
Hello, i couldnt try it. But did you do

Wipe Data and "FORMAT SYSTEM" before flash new one?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dad2dj:
I wiped dalvik and did factory reset with twrp. I also wiped dalvik and cache after install. That might have been my problem. I'm still getting to know twrp.

Edit: Can v3 be installed without having v2?

Android os and Android system using too much battery for me. Went down 30% in 5hrs of not using phone. Any thoughts?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
Stock kernel is constantly calling a nonexistent resource number 0x0000000. That is causing a battery drain.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dad2dj:
You think that's fixable?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
I am not sure. What I have found out it is that this is connected to 2 apps: Settings Storage and Keychain. Disabling both gets rid of the drain completely. The phone works, while it is on, but without Settings Storage, it won't boot...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Najuto9tail:
Ok, so thats the problem... I was wondering the same... Battery does not last long enough. Android system is taking to much battery juice.

I changed my minimun cpu to the lowest value avaiable. It helps a little...

As a tribute to CM guys, I am preparing a slim down version of my Aoba Pure Black. This will have about 240 mb in zip and be almost as snappy, fluid and fast as CM, but with the benefit of good battery life. I am almost done and will post the rom soon...

So now that we have twrp recovery working on locked bootloader, does this mean that this version of twrp will work on any rom?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MrGezz:
kinda have special way to include it thou .. haha
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dad2dj:
Without a doubt, this is the best rom for LB Ion.

*Positives*

It's CyanogenMod on a locked bootloader!

Fast, light and pretty stable

More customizable than any other rom, apart from MIUI

Lots of themes available

TWRP recovery

Auto brightness actually works(that's a first that i know of)

Lots of settings for everything

*Negatives*

Battery life is average

Occasionally hangs(maybe once every 2 days)

Reboot to recovery doesn't work(but a single tap of volume up button when light is blue gets you there)

Lock screen wake up takes about 2 seconds

That's really about it.

Positives definitely outweigh the negatives. Thanks OP and devs.

Edit: Reboot to recovery works with advanced power menu xposed module.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MrGezz:
did you try xposed framework for reboot to recovery ??
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dad2dj:
I tried it. Not working with gravity box reboot menu or stock reboot menu. I can't confirm if it works with CWM. Not a big deal though. I like TWRP and will stick with it for this rom.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MrGezz:
try the module with the "advanced power menu" thats one working for sure :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dad2dj:
Sweet, I'll try it and edit the post. Thanks.

edit: It works.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bugly Astard:
I agree this rom is awesome, very fast, but to say its the most customizable? You obviously haven't tried MIUI.

I don't have problem with the battery life on this cm10, but its definitely not what you would think for a rom that's so clean and fast.

Sent from my SeXperia Ion
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dad2dj:
I guess that wasn't fair of me to say. It's definitely one of the most customizable roms available. I've tried MIUI. It's a good rom but it's not for me. I edited that post.

Factory Reset is Not Enough. You should mount /System /Cache /Data and format each individually else you will get some unexpected errors.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Olivier:
No... A factory reset does wipe /data and /cache and /system gets mounted and wiped automatically when you flash a ROM (if declared in the updater-script, which is rarely not the case). Just do a factory reset and flash the ROM.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dad2dj:
Not a big deal, but when using cm torch my flash flickers a little bit(yes strobe is set to off). Anyone else's do this? Only reason I ask is that if it is stressing hardware, I would like to know what file controls it so I can maybe turn it down.

Are there going to be any updates to the rom? Like battery life improvement?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
I don't think an update is coming as officially there is no CM10 for Aoba. Apart from that I am working on a battery life fix, which is coming...

By the way, most of the problems are related to Trebuchet launcher. So, a light weight launcher like Nova, would do much better than Trebuchet (trebuchet is about 14mb, Nova is 3mb).
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Archector:
This rom has an excelent performance, but I'm having a bit of lag on the System UI (pull down menu) and I can't enter on service menu (*#*#service#*#*). Is there another way to enter in the service menu?

Thanks in advance for the hard work, excelent rom!.

Interim Android System overdrive fix

Battery life fix.

Two things you need to do:

1. Charge your phone only with OEM charger. This rom has a strange feature of reacting to non OEM charging (especially through computer USB) by creating all kinds of nasty persistent wakelocks that won't let your ION sleep; and

2. Unzip and put the attached script into your system/etc/init.d directory with right permissions (755) and enjoy much better battery life. It is working as confirmed on my ION.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] optimumpro:
Permanent Battery life fix

Here is a permanent solution to Android System overdrive and the resulting poor battery life in this otherwise amazing rom. A lot of adjustments has been done in framework-res.apk. Flash it in TWRP, wipe Dalvik cache and reboot. I have updated META-INF certificates, so this shouldn't cause any bootloops. Working fine on my locked ION. I now have about 1.5% battery drain in a quiet state with radio and wifi on, Sip client active and E-mail synching 4-5 accounts and brief web browser usage. I do have Nova launcher, which is a contributing factor. I have resolved multiple wakeups caused by different modules, including WIFI, BT and GSM radio. I have also fixed a bug (due to incorrect bool settings), which caused the phone to default to WCDM/GSM, as opposed to LTE/WCDM/GSM, which is important to North American ION users.

Edit: added some screenshots. As you can see Android System caused 17 minutes of wakeups during a 6 hour period. Sip client sends keep alive pockets every 90 seconds, E-mail synch, Wifi and Radio do the rest. I think it is a pretty good usage...

Edit: The original zip was corrupted during upload. Here is another link:
