Reboots Spotify

I'm having problems with spotify, when I try to login, the screen goes black and i can't do anything, I have to restart.

Anyone have this problem or something to fix it?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] perkabalo:
Go to Developer options, check Disable HW overlays, start Spotify and login, once logged in go back and uncheck Disable HW overlays in Developer options.

Hello deedwar!!!

Just wanna ask... Can we expect an update of your roms with working radio?

Just excited since I saw a rom on XS with working radio... =)

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
It is a completely different kernel and source i have had a quick try of getting it to work and while i can get it to load up it has ALOT of fc's ALL the time.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] teddy0209:
Ah... I see... Thanks for the reply! =)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] steveeJ:
hey deedwar,

really great that you're still around and working on new ROMs for the XAS!

i've done a fresh install of this one and the first impression seems to be good!

except for the still existing bug of all opensemc based ROM's:

setting a persistent/manual chosen mobile network fails.

steps to reproduce:

settings -> mobile networks -> network operators

wait until the search is over

select the network of choice

wait while it tries to reigster...

receive a toast that reports failure registering

the logcat is attached.

the bad thing about this is that if you live near a border, the phone will eventually switch to a roaming network if that has stronger signal, which is really annoying.

but still: thanks again for holding the acro s' ground!!!

edit

:

after a couple of reboots, there's also an annoying message popping up. it says

it has a restart button, which takes the phone into recovery which is strange enough.

it can be dismissed using the back button.

i have tried upgrading the baseband from

8660-AAABQOLYM-314010-35

to

8660-AAABQOLYM-314010-39

but it's not helping.

(in stock ROM I flash a new kernel that contain dual (CWM,TWRP) recovery then from twrp install this CM ROM but after loading CM my recovery is deleted

if I flash stock kernel again, my CM ROM has deleted)

what can I do ????
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Kyuunex:
This ROM has no FM radio

unexpected
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Kyuunex:
Hey if anyone knows how to get FM radio in this ROM and get it working, a help would be really appreciated.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] runekock:
Don't know about this rom, but nAOSP 7.1 has a radio that mostly works. And it is a very good rom in general.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Kyuunex:
I tried every rom on this site that's android 5 or up.

every rom has at least one thing broken.

that nAOSP 7.1 makes my phone behave weirdly, like the phone turns on by it self when I turn it off.

also this CM 12 ROM is the only ROM I found on this site that has a working camera focus.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DvDwx.:
i already worked in support to cellphones.. and in your case you need disassembly the acro S to access the battery Pins and recharge manually... i never disassembly my Acro S.. however I know that there blockades against water [IP57 (WaterProof)] for you to remove to access the battery ... if u find it too complicated you could take on a technical assistance and ask for them to recharge your battery manually to be able to give you reset via FlashBoot ;D ... i don't PM to you because i can be wrong and some one can tell you another way to do that work
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] iamadam:
@deedwar thank's for making CM rom for the the Acro S but i was wondering if this rom have the same issues such as the AOSP and BeanStalk roms like the random reboots when posting on instagram or playing facebook videos ... and what's the custom recovery that comes with the kermel ??
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] LippiVan:
thx a lot [MENTION=1171001]deedwar[/MENTION], seems like a great rom so far. i've had some random reboots at the beginning, switched to another launcher (Nova), since 2 days everything is working great so far. facebook videos work fine, no reboots.

the phone feels way faster and smoother now, really feels like a new phone.

thx a lot again, great work!!! :good:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] paijho158:

ART

Is ART supported in this version?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] xyrovice:
Officially? Never.

But I have been running ART for the last 6+ months with no issues. The key is the apply is when you first clean flash and boot up, before you do anything. Also, reboot immediately (the prompt should take care of that).

On a different note, how can you upgrade your baseband? I'm afraid that mine is so outdated it's causing stability issues...

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Greatrol:
#Deedwar You are great, excellent job, in my Xperia you this Rom is working fine, I thought to change phones but change but now it seems another phone

I have only two problems:

The first is that sometimes when I see a video on Facebook by the end of this or want to leave the phone restarts, it does sporadically but is a bit annoying, do not know how to fix this

The second problem I have is that the phone no longer recognizes my USB memory connected to the micro USB port, before installing this Rom if I recognized her, I do not know if you have to change something to make it work

I thank you in advance for your support and great work

P. D. How I can change the option to record phone call?

Sorry for my English of Google

Are you planning an M10 release?

[MENTION=1171001]deedwar[/MENTION]

- Now that CM11 M10 is out (and our beloved Acro S has been snubbed again), are you planning to put out an M10 release with the fixes you mention above?

- CM11 M10 specifically mentions working ANT+ support for a number of devices that support ANT+. Will your next release fully support the ANT+ features of the Acro S (hikari)?

- Also, would you please consider patching the ROM source with OpenPDroid before building (or producing a second/parallel build with OpenPDroid)? It has no effect (as long as ART is not enabled) for most users who either don't know what pdroid is or don't care AND, it encourages and enables those who do know what PDroid is to use your rom
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
Ok i just updated to the latest source. I dont think ant+ works but worth a try i havent got anything to test with it.

Download

Latest kernel version which means it will be a LOT ahead of the old one.

Plus all my important fixes which i honestly cant remember since my last update.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] csd.droid:
Thanks for the update. I've just installed it and it's working fine.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] perkabalo:
Thanks, working great as already stated, just wondering if your recent source changes/commits is available on github? Would be nice to be able to view/compile.

Can anyone who installed the update tell if it still there random reboots sometimes or after watching a facebook or snapchat video ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] PoohTech:
i have a question before i flash this ROM. Will it remove my recovery program (like CWM) after flashing this? because some ROMS deleted my recovery program after flashing it. If not, can i just flash this like an update? because im from CM11 "Beanstalk" version 4.4.4 ROM.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] andacro:
It comes with TWRP as all new roms do these days (at least for lt26w). Flashing stock, rooting it and then installing CWM I have been thru too many times.

Do the camera and GPS work? No random reboots?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ejstubbs:
I was wondering how I would revert back my current ROM (based on stock JB) if I decided that CM11 wasn't for me. So the process would be: flash stock, root it, install CWM*, restore last CWM backup. Is that right?

* Per this thread. Or maybe this one - although I note that one also has a TWRP installer, so maybe a better idea would be to install TWRP, take a backup with that and then do the CM11 install?

(I guess this is aimed at deedwar, following his sterling work to date keeping our phone in the game.)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MiyagiSan:
Why TWRP? I get why it must come with a recovery but why not the last stable version of CWM?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MiyagiSan:
Does anyone have a link to a CWM recovery that can be flashed in recovery?

Incidentally, can the TWRP version installed by this rom read existing CWM nandroid backups?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] andacro:
No idea about one for CWM, but use this with ADB: http://www.4-shared.eu/download/bB84o8VOFX3HtdPEA4fibW/CWM6-cDM-v2-5.html

No, sadly that isn't possible.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MiyagiSan:
Thanks. I suspected TWRP would mean losing the use of the CWM backups.

Have you flashed this rom? I find that flashing boot.img does not give me a recovery. Flashing the boot.img from [MENTION=1171001]deedwar[/MENTION]'s Beanstalk rom does give me a recovery as expected though. I note there's a ~1MB file size difference.

Sadly, the Beanstalk kernel seems subtly incompatible with this rom. I can't reboot for instance...just hangs.

EDIT: It's not the Beanstalk kernel - flashing the full rom would have replaced it with the Boot.img from this rom anyway. And, I can reboot. I just can't reboot to recovery because...there is no recovery included with this rom. At least that's what the evidence of my initial testing suggests. The rom itself seems fine (although I haven't tested extensively).

Also, how to enter recovery mode from boot? Assume I can't select reboot-to-recovery in rom.

EDIT: Would still like to know the answer to this (for when I do have a recovery to boot into). I suspect I've been doing the right thing all along but was just missing a recovery to boot into! :o

[EASY] [GUIDE] status 7 error in CWM/TWRP while flashing Rom/Mod [UPDATED 23/05/14]

Flashing CM 11, I get `set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed`

If the error log mention set_metadata_recursive, you just need to update your recovery - it's too old (the version installed by CM10.x on the Acro S is generally too old).

The recovery is typically changed by flashing the boot.img from your new rom since they usually have an updated recovery. You do that in fastboot mode:

fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot

After rebooting, flash your full rom.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MiyagiSan:
[MENTION=1171001]deedwar[/MENTION]

Does this rom contain a recovery? When I flash boot.img from this rom, I can't enter recovery. However, flashing boot.img from your Beanstalk rom gives me TWRP recovery. Is that kernel fully compatible with this rom?

In an effort to cover all bases, what is the procedure for booting into recovery for the included recovery?

[MENTION=5208174]andacro[/MENTION]

Have you installed this rom? Did you flash boot.img first as is usual? Were you able to reboot into recovery afterwards?

[MENTION=1171001]deedwar[/MENTION].. On Chinese forum they posted somethings about new sources and lasted Cyanogen updates ported from other device.. Maybe i wrong but they say something about CM11S-M11... And with that they have made CrDroid port* too
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
The cr-droid ROM uses my 2.5 evolve kernel that after a while would cause FC until you rebooted. It is a newer CAF but I couldn't get it to work without issues.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] deedwar:
To be honest i thought it did. I know in a previous version it didnt and i had to re-compile the ROM and add it. Will be doing a recompile within the week anyhow and i will see what it is doing.

I have unlocked/locked it many times, and have never noticed any difference.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MiyagiSan:
Did you mean with the camera quality between stock and custom roms?

If yes, I can't say I've noticed any difference in camera quality too.

Then again, I have different expectations from a smartphone camera compared to a dedicated camera. A $100-200 dedicated camera should easily outclass the camera on a $800-1000 flagship smartphone.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] andacro:
Thought the poster above me said that it got worse by unlocking it. Can't say I have noticed any difference between stock and not too.

I agree. A dedicated camera is preferable. I try to never forget it when going out, even though I have my phone with me. :)

Help me, Please!

I have downloaded the ROM and when I try to flash it through my CWM recovery (CWM v6.0.3.0) it says:

(bad)

installation aborted.

What's the problem? Could it be my CWM recovery version? or what...?

Further info:

Device: Xperia Acro S (LT26w)

Android version: 4.1.2

Firmware: 6.2.B.1.96
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] MiyagiSan:
Remember, this rom has no recovery!!

.

Your recovery is old. With older recoveries, you need to flash a boot.img with a combined kernel/recovery that is compatible with the rom you wish to flash.

Now, this CM11 rom doesn't seem to include a recovery. My workaround was to grab the boot.img file from [MENTION=1171001]deedwar[/MENTION]'s BeanStalk 4.4.x rom. That gave me a version of TWRP recovery that I used to flash this CM11 rom.

You use fastboot to flash the boot.img file (make sure phone is in fastboot mode):

fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot

Once you've got the kernel/recovery flashed, then you flash the full CM11 rom (not the BeanStalk rom) after the reboot using the TWRP recovery you just installed.

After you flash the full CM11 rom, you will have no recovery again (the BeanStalk boot.img will be overwritten during the full CM11 rom flash). If you aren't comfortable with a situation where there is no recovery, please wait for the next version of the CM11 rom.
