[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EranTerran:
Hello :) when i connected my galaxy s advance to kies it notified me that there is a firmware upgrade, i pressed okay, when it reached to 100% it stopped and an error shows up "failed to run firmware upgrade unknown error occurred" how do i fix that?

P.S I don't want to update from ODIN, last time i hard bricked my phone and i'm really scared that it will happen again.

Thank you!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shut_down:
Did you tried to retry? Maybe your internet connection went down when firmware was downloading...
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EranTerran:
i tried couple of times, but i still get the same error
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shut_down:
I never updated phоne with KIES, sorry I can't give you some better advice.

How did you got your phone bricked with Odin before? You used wrong firmware or?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EranTerran:
yea, i think i used the P version and i didn't notice. well i will wait a few days and if it will not be fixed i will use odin.

Don't afraid from hard brick. Embrace the Odin you'll always need it. Do as this
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Parameswaran Iyer:
If you upgraded from Kies the you really dont need to worry. Kies has a option in it called "Emergency Firmware Recovery". Just connect your phone to PC. Start Kies>Tools>Emergency Firmware Recovery.

Your phone will appear in the list below. Just select it and kies will do the rest of the job.

If you are really afraid and you have your warranty then just take it to the nearest Samsung Service Centre and they must repair it for you since the problem was created from Kies itself.

I've try to upgrade my SM-G530F in samsung kies. But it said failed to run firmware upgrade unknown error occurred who can help me

[Xperia Arc Android Development] touns_j:
Any plan to support other 2011 devices ? Neo and Neo V ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] fakhrodn:
Sure,

Just let's see how it goes with Arc for now
[Xperia Arc Android Development] touns_j:
Great , keep up the good work
[Xperia Arc Android Development] AdibSul:
Great work, Downloading now, i will report later

Edit 1: my first impression: WOOOOW

I'll test everything and report again

Edit 2:

* ROM is very fast and smooth.

* Free RAM [130 - 140] Using Greenify.

* (Wifi, Bluetooth, Sound....) are working fine, no lag or bug. Battery drain a little more than AORP but it's OK not a big problem.

* All features are working good except: Navbar sometimes disappear, I think this because (xposed - Gravity). and Multiwindow i only can use a half of the screen.

* In general it's a great ROM and i recommend it. Thank you [MENTION=4365886]fakhrodn[/MENTION].

Edit 3: I forgot to say that font size in English is good but in Arabic it's small.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gabimx:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] kev_gordon:
Looks great, but there are lots of extras! Does this impact how much RAM there is? Can someone let me know how much RAM is available after install?

I've tried so many ROMs recently, I don't know if I can face yet another rebuild.... but this does look good.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] AdibSul:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Ackroyd:
Is this working/non-working of LegacyXperia related to this ROM?

https://github.com/LegacyXperia/local_manifests/wiki/CM11.0-kernel-3.4-status

For example, is wifi buggy?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] fakhrodn:
Yes!

I used CM11 sources to build this so there are the same

But for me wifi is fine

I changed my router security to wep and it's more stable than wpa and wpa2
[Xperia Arc Android Development] AdibSul:
I edit my previous post, hope this help

[Xperia Arc Android Development] troubled_android:
The last version works perfect for me, the only problem is:

- maps are sometimes a bit glitchy/jumpy (but it's not a problem for me)

Otherwise stock browser works perfect, active display working, also wifi is working fine, rom is really fast and snappy and I absolutely love custom progress bar and omni switch! :p

Just a question, which governor and scheduler are okay for battery drain? Im using smartassv2 and cfq and battery drains kinda fast even when idle.

Thanks for this awesome rom, fakhrodn!:good::D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] fakhrodn:
Thanks mate,

Unfortunately google maps flickering is a CM11 issue

About governors and schedulers both on-demand and smart-ass 2 give good results, also I personally prefer SIO (the simpler the better)

However, I believe that there might be some sacrifice on battery-usage point of view for amount of features you get and how the phone is snappy.

Thank you again
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Marchinho6:
the best battery life i've ever seen in 4.4.2 os.

thanks bro :good:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] pokemon1122:
Can you pls tell what performance settings you are using? And same kernel in ROM zip file? for me battery is draining little fast.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] robin236265:
it's quite an amazing rom! many features and almost all are working flawless...OmniSwitch,smoothprogressbar, HALO, etc~~and so far it's stable~except appbar seems not work, or i dont know how to use it...

thanks op for taking this rom to our kinda out dated device...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Marchinho6:
Hi man. I find bug.

HW acceleration dont work. Youtube and personal video dont work.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] fakhrodn:
back up your current rom then test it.

It should work
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ƒεηιx:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] trungduc5151:
how about navigation ring, how can i add app

it says" "Drag your finger to target ..." but how to activate the ring
[Xperia Arc Android Development] fakhrodn:
if you can't change navigation ring targets, here is a workaround:

first set LCD density to 200 then reboot

After that, set your navigation ring targets and then change your LCD density back to 240 and reboot

it's strange but it worked for me
[Xperia Arc Android Development] trungduc5151:
yes it's work but how to activate it from home screen :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] fakhrodn:
You have your navigation bars, right?

PM me if problem is something else
[Xperia Arc Android Development] troubled_android:
Just reporting how great battery life is with this rom. I dont know if this is even real but here are the screenies. :D 5 hours of screen time! :thumbup:

Using smartassv2, sio, 122-1017mhz, balanced profile. And I calibrated battery few days ago + im using greenify on some apps.

Thanks dev, this is my new fav rom!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ngotrieu163:
I set nav bar to 24dpi..some time it restart to defaut

I thinks it rom bug
[Xperia Arc Android Development] fakhrodn:
I've been using it for three weeks now and never had such an issue

If you didn't wipe your data and system that might be the reason

Also, check if you have other modules of xposed which may interfere the Nav bars like gravity
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Bread123:

Stuck on boot screen, do not install, it uses that new cm 11 kernel with many bugs also...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] aria_kh:
The Rom boots fine don't spam this thread.

It's the best Kitkat experience for Arc S (In my opinion). It's near perfect.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] vipinrahul:
after flashing boot.img my phone got bricked twice. not sure why it happened.

---------- Post added at 03:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:18 PM ----------

i tried for the 3rd time now....after flashing boot.img the phone does not start. then i have to flash official .587 firmware and redo again. tried thrice and not working.

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot reboot

---------- Post added at 04:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:37 PM ----------

tried for a 4th time....not sure why the phone does not start after flashing boot.img...i give up now :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] troubled_android:
You say you flashed boot.img and then rebooted the phone. It might sound stupid but did you actually flashed the rom? Otherwise the phone will not start.

Try these steps, it should work:

-put rom and gapps on sd card

-with flashtool go to fastboot and flash boot.img

-go to recovery, wipe data, system, cache, dalvik cache

-flash/install rom

-reboot

-go again to recovery mode and flash gapps

-reboot

I dont know what you're doing wrong but its really simple as f*** and it works perfectly.

Good luck.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] vipinrahul:
yes! the first step i did is to connect in fastboot mode and tried to flash the boot.img file. it was flashed successfully as per cmd window. then when i press the power button so that i can go to recovery after the logo appears nothing happens. the phone is unresponsive. it does not start. the reason i manually start is the phone does not start after typing fastboot reboot in cmd prompt.

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot reboot

i have flashed CM ROM's many times. i have followed the same steps. not sure why the phone does not start, then i need to remove the battery and insert it again so that it gets detected in flashtool and i flash the stock firmware. tried 4 times but no luck!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DjDexter5GHz:
Maybe for you, but i tried several times from stock CM 11, and even stock ICS .587, but it just gets stuck on that animation...

(I followed instructions and wiped everything)

EDIT: My intention is not to spam, and i would like to help developer solve problem in any way I can. So any suggestions to provide additional info?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] M7ammad.eb:
have you tried volum up or down to get into recovery ?!!! I haven't installed it yet.. but I'm downloading it and will feedback again later ...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] iztnie:
after you go to recovery, i thinks you can wait for a while (i think it's bug for recovery) and on my phone after i flash the rom and need to reboot i take a long time to showing "yes"

edit 1 : this rom support dark kernel by raven. i already using for now
[Xperia Arc Android Development] vipinrahul:
hi, did you manage to install the ROM? how is it working?

---------- Post added at 05:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:10 AM ----------

your phone needs to start first for you to try those key combinations to boot into recovery! in my case the problem is the phone doesn't even start after flashing the boot.img.file. if it start i can wait till the sony logo appears, then i can press volume down to go into recovery. but nothing can be done if the phone does not start at all.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] iztnie:
try with different kernel,i'm using dark kernel by raven,

note : i can go to recovery using back button
[Xperia Arc Android Development] vipinrahul:
ok let me try different kernel!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] trungduc5151:
i'm using xperia pro, when my phone get low battery (under 15%), the led blinks, also the keyboard light blinks too ... It's the same as LX rom
[Xperia Arc Android Development] vipinrahul:
thanks all. i fixed the problem. installed the ROM. checking for stability now and will update later. :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] iztnie:
wow good, what i'm miss?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] M7ammad.eb:
feeding back ..

well it's good ROM, stable enough, smooth, has alot of features, but the only bad thing I discovered is the kernel

it's not a ROM bug but it's a bug must be fixed..

it's annoying that the phone restart randomly 3-4 times a day !!!

I've tried another ROMs with same kernel and have the same problem..

I suggest even to roll back to previous LX kernel (I haven't tried it) or to use another kernel..

will try anther kernel and feedback again later ...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] aria_kh:
I've been using the rom + kernel provided for 3days now and haven't faced this problem (rebooting) at all.

I don't use Halo, Navigation Bar, Active display or Appbar..Is it possible that the reason originate from one of these ?

I have an ARC S btw.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Danvid113:
[MENTION=4365886]fakhrodn[/MENTION]

The rom is very good and stable.

I uploaded the google now launcher, and everything works fine.

Apart from 1 thing, I can't get the "okay google" voice command work. It doesn't even give an option, although the phone is set up for US english.

Any ideas why it isn't working? (It was ok on the previous rom I used)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] fakhrodn:
That's weird!

I will look into it

Thanks for your report
