[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] darrensumaoy14:
Do we really need flashtool to install this or can we install this via CWM. My bootloader is already unlock and have root access. Sorry for noob question
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hitman-xda:
You can't flash this via cwm. Flashtool is required.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Kusay_1:
Will test soon, once i have a pc in my goddamn house

Its amazing how this phone has a 5.1 ROM, OP is awesome
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] radiocity966:
here is flashable zip with ROM made by f1rex from 4pda Download it and install via cwm cheers!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Kusay_1:
Well, i installed it yesterday and so far, so good, the device is laggy a bit, but hey, its not particularly super duper uber killer flagship level

I like the feature where it wakes up when i pick it up
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mariovp:
Hi, which recovery does it flash, CWM, TWRP or both?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Kusay_1:
Apparently both since it also worked with twrp for me
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DvDwx.:
How to install Gapps? or it already come inside this ROM? (i already dont have time to install it)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Kusay_1:
You think a 200 mb zipnfile contains an os AND gapps???ofcourse you need to flash gapps
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] arvin393:
work on xperia ion?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hitman-xda:
Nope. You have to wait, he's working on it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Tuatara:
Hello again BPaul.

Quick update: Acro S on your ROM is running smoothly when set to: performance governor / row scheduler. While I note the battery usage is slightly higher, but with 70% remaining at end of day with my normal usage is excellent. It appears that the "race to idle" is effective, and the idle CPU usage - even at full clock rate (1.5GHz) is not as much of a battery drain as expected. The SnapDragon is quite efficient running at idle.

The UI and responsiveness of the phone is now excellent, and I don't experience any stutters or slowdowns. I find that there is no need to overclock or exceed the original Acro S design specifications.

Regards,

Tuatara
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] orangehk:
After two weeks of use, the experience was smooth and very responsive, seems no big issue.

But I have a little problem and don't know if this only happens to me. When I put my phone into my pocket, sometimes the screen is turned on by itself(or something wrong with the power button?).

With no screen lock enabled, the phone receive false input from the screen in my pocket and dial to someone through the quick unlock to phone app...

And also i couldn't wake the phone up in the morning if I set the minimum CPU freq to 192 MHz at night...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Tuatara:
I'm seeing the same ... smooth, responsive, and most everything is working for me. Some applications are having issues - but that is probably due to 5.1 issues than anything else.

I've noticed the same issue, but different. I'm still experiencing (semi) random restarts of the device. It is almost as if the power button is being scanned as "down", forcing a restart. A similar effect to your power-on issue.

There is a "wake device when you pick up device or receive notifications" option in the Settings > Display menu. You may also have this enabled. However, I've found that when a notification is received, the device still does not wake the display, even with the option enabled. There may be some (minor) issue in the wake/power/standby/reset handling.

I've given up on the frequency scaling. I don't use my phone much during the day, but when I do need to use my phone I need it to be immediately available. I've changed the governor on my phone to "performance", and keep the CPU running at maximum (normal) frequency of 1.5GHz. This has made everything "perfectly" responsive, and I've had no issues. As far as the battery life goes, I do believe it to have been affected, but not by a large amount. I can easily make it through an entire day without charge, and still have 50% or more left at end of day. You may want to try/experiment with that yourself and see if it's better for your needs.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bluechip850:
Why no screenshots for this build.?:confused:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Tuatara:
Do you really need to see more than what is available on the first post?

Only the version and kernel information have changed in the latest release.

How about the screencap from BPaul's twitter feed of the latest release?

Or where this very image is mentioned in the forum: only 26 posts prior to yours?

The changelog and updates are the most important things to take note of for this ROM. :silly:

This isn't a "how much stuff can be packed into it to make it l33t" ROM.

It's AOSP, and I for one am very, very pleased it is that way. (Thanks BPaul).

The information you seek has already been posted.

Search is your friend. Use it. Use it often.

Apologies for the tone, but the ROM details are patently obvious from the thread title -- [ROM][AOSP] - Android 5.1

Your comment is quite out of place when the information is already there, especially from someone who has posted on XDA as much as you have.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] adiawie:
hold (power button + volume down) together... u will get screenshot
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] rensaionji:
there is no sound come out from my hh after install this rom, only vibrate

what could be possibly wrong?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mariovp:
This ROM has been very smooth so far, but I'm also having problems with random touches on emergency caller while locked and some unexpected reboots.

Is anyone using Link2SD? I have experienced many times in which the phone says the SD was disconnected and my linked apps stop working until reboot, btw I´m using a genuine SanDisk 32GB class 10 from Best Buy.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DvDwx.:
Normally is difficult to compile some custom recovery alongside kernel when the whole compilation exceeds whole memory to kernel... sometimes is possible re-partition this sizes but not so much more space... who know get explain this doubt is [MENTION=4074348]BPaul[/MENTION]... he compile the kernel

maybe he could not get that work with our device... because have some minor issues comparing our phone and Xperia S about that peculiarities... =# that "PORT" is not so simple... have much modifications to do it work properly with our device...

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Tuatara:
Thanks BPaul!

I've unfortunately been unable to successfully perform an in-place upgrade using TWRP. The installation of your ROM, Google Apps, and SuperSU worked without any issues, however when starting to use the device, Google Play Services (and other services) crash at startup, and make the device unusable. I tried only an in-place ROM upgrade, without Google Apps, or SuperSU ... wiping cache and Dalvik ... no luck - always the same failures - crashes at startup. I believe that the network stack has somehow been corrupted for services. When restoring my previous running TWRP backup, everything is back to what it was, and is working properly. I then attempted a clean install of Beta 2, wiping /system /data /cache before ZIP install, and by performing a factory-reset on the upgrade - In both cases, everything appears to work and operate properly. I can only assume that there is some issue in the network configuration of my device which is preventing an in-place upgrade from working.

So, it looks like I'll need to spend the time to 'rebuild' my device, and re-install all the packages manually (i.e. get a non-TWRP backup). A bit of time needed, but I'm sure it will be worth it for all of the fixes you've done.

By the way ... the FM Radio ... works perfectly!!!

Cheers! :highfive:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] YoBob:
Link says nothing as to how to flash the image.

Can't we just download "TWRP Manager" or "ROM Manager" apps from the play store and press flash recovery to get the recovery back?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] eswawan:
How-to
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] orangehk:
I recently changed the /data partition size to 8GB and noticed the following in the new rom with the new kernel:

The phone system became unstable and freezing after I installed few apps on it, it was smooth when only 1-2 apps are installed.

It didn't respond to any button press or touchscreen input, and the screen sometimes stopped updating, or update after a few minutes. It happens so frequently and I have to hard-reset my phone.

In catlog I found something says

Tried reinstalling the whole thing from the beginning, and did the /data resizing, the problem still exists.

Will the change in /data and /sdcard partition be the cause of problem?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mariovp:
How did you repartition your device? I would like to do it too, link2sd isn't very stable.

I have noticed something regarding the QHUSB_DLOAD error, my phone appears to be detected by the computer only when fully charged, I tried connecting it after letting it a few days untouched and the orange LED turned ON but it wasn't recognized, then charged for some minutes with wall charger, the LED turned OFF and it was recognized again in the computer as QHSUSB_DLOAD. Just my two cents.
