[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SPV2010:
I have been having problems with my phone recently. It's a galaxy note 2 and has Phoenix ROM on it. It's using a 4.4.2 ROM, but it was upgraded from a 4.3 ROM. I was using my phone on 4.3 ROM and after a while it started to get problems with restarting randomly and it kept losing root permissions, so i decided to try to fix it by putting a new ROM on. That didn't work, so i rerooted the phone and, reflashed the recovery formatted my entire device and fixed partitions. This fixed the permission problems, but my phone still keeps having issues. It keeps restarting randomly and the phone often won't respond when the power button is pressed, whether or not the screen is on. I also have a gesture suite that allows me to turn off the screen if i do a gesture, but this isn't working to turn it off either. The ROM also flashed a new kernel, so it can't be the kernel.

PLEASE HELP ME!!

When you go to option in call history, it give you the option NOT to delete call up to a year old...or never. I had mine set to never...but it still deletes the calls. it seems to only be keeping count for a week or two. is there any way to make this setting work?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] silent_killa:
Cant say i've noticed this since i've flashed my ROM so many times to test out the different Roms, lol.

However, one would presume that the registry entry for this would be the CallHistoryMax DWORD under HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone.

I have change my call History settings numerous times to test this theory but it has no effect on the DWORD value.

Anyone else have similar problems??

S.K.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ramontrotman:
i have 4 friends with the 8125, they all have the same problem. i too had this problem with my 8125...i was hoping it would go away with the 8525...but no luck. im thinking its something in the OS and not the phone. what you guys think?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ramontrotman:
any one? try it yourselves guys. this option never works :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Interesting just looked at my call history and I suspect a sim card issue/setting may be the root of your problems.

The reason I say this is that my call history extends way back to January this year long before I even got the Hermes!! Info is therefore stored on the Sim. In addition there are gaps in the dates when I would certainly have made/received calls. This inconsistent recording of the info on calls I believe is related to whether the number dialled or received is recognized by the SIM the Phone memory or both. The longest remembered ones are obviously from the SIMs memory.

Not sure where this gets us exactly but my albeit inconsistent record certainly pre-dates this phone and back to my Motorola days.

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ramontrotman:
funny you should say that. i just got a new sim card with the 8525...they gave me the 3g sim card. Thats kinda odd it would happen to two diffrent sim cards. i had 3 8125's and they all had this problem. now the 8525. the only phone it worked for was my ipaq 6515....and that was wm2003. It sucks because this is a reeeally good feture to have, you always have a number on file.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Yes it is strange. I don't think I'm suggesting any kind of fault on the SIMs. But you know how you can save tel numbers to SIM or to Phone - (I always forget which mine is set to) well I just wonder whether this has any bearing on where the call history is saved and or affects how long it is saved for. If it's the SIM and not the phone then there will be limits on storage space for the records. The question then is if it's the SIM which mine must be - how can it be changed to save on Phone memory for a longer record?

Sorry - more questions than answers!

I have installed that rom on my ace 2 everything works fine but no signal, tried searching phone network manual and automatically didnt work, also noticed airplane mode activate and deactivate random every minute.

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliiahmed.20:
IS there any good roms for this phone seriously ?

every rom i try has alot of bugs and problems and devs release updates every 6 months and most of them drop the development for the phone anyway

i cant find a single rom that combines performance with battery without sacrificing the LED notification abilities !!!
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranavthombare:
I've seen comments saying "the best rom" in every rom OP

If 'you' don't like it, it's your view. But don't ask for the best rom as its a violation of xda rules. I hope you get my point and I'm not being rude.

There are many great roms out there, try them for a week or so and then see what's good and what's not, help the dev by reviewing it honestly(not being biased like 'this rom is nothing like xyz rom') this way the dev will help you get a better rom.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrSteve555:
First off - respect others work. Everyone puts a lot of effort in the ROMs.

1. The ROMs for SP are nearly bugless, only stock based ROMs have stock Sony bugs.

2. Of course - updates are released every 6 months - how is that possible if PA, AOKP, PAC, FXP CM are weekly-built, and we also have daily-built CM nightlies. Also who dropped support for a ROM? Last time it happened for OmniROM. After that no one dropped ROM support.

3. All ROMs for SP are nearly on par when it comes to battery and performance.

4. You can get the illumination bar features with Illumination Reciever + Illumination Bar Notification apps

5. Why do you put these exclamation marks in your sentences?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironshadow2:
try PA or PAC, smooth,fast , great battery life and stable

Also according to the XDA Rules asking for "What is the best ROM" is not allowed here ;)

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliiahmed.20:
hahahahaha you people are being aggressive and rude and i didnt say the "Best" anywhere i said a good rom

and no there are no good roms and i have used every single rom in the development thread and i know every developer and because i respect them i didnt mention their names but i know everyone who doesnt release a single update and leaves the rom to rot or just drops the whole development

everyone is just sensetive when it comes to respecting developers
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliiahmed.20:
5. because i can and its not against any rules !!!!!

4. Most of the applications doesnt work when you are on AOSP or CM they only work on stock

3. there are roms that are just slow like stocks and roms that eat battery like miui and aosp and cm

2. I Dont see any updates from any of these

1. Stock roms are the only thing we can call decent other than that its just an FC Festive
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jeik:
eXistenZ is the best stock based rom atm,AT LEAST IN MY OPINION,others may find other roms better.it has NO BUGS,it has speed enchantment,and when you turn Stamina mode On,you will have a hard time draining the battery
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrSteve555:
4. Okay, I can agree, but it's proprietary Sony technology so it can't really be used in CM without weird tricks.

3.Stock is pretty fast starting from .205 update. Eat battery? It depends on that how you flash the ROM, I can easily get 3-4+ hours screen on time.

2. I won't even comment about that, your ignorance totally killed me.

1.FC Festive? Custom ROMs based on AOSP are way stabler than stock ROMs.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliiahmed.20:
then you didnt tried them the only stable custom rom is AOSP by vanir and it lacks the notification bar controll and the features

and please amuse me and tell me what is the right way to flash a rom other than flashing the kernel , wiping data and cache and dalvik, flashing the rom then reboot ?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliiahmed.20:
existenZ is slow compared to every single rom out there and as i said we didnt get an upate in 3 months or more
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliiahmed.20:
i bet that ill find a developer who will comment right now saying that he does this for free and he has a life and he is busy and we should be gratefull

if you are busy and you are doing this for free then why you started it from the beginning ?

just drop the project and delete your thread instead of making us FC everyday and sink in bugs
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrSteve555:
[MENTION=4821008]aliiahmed.20[/MENTION]

I tried AOKP, PAC, PA, CM10.2, CM11, Stock odexed and deodexed, and also ExistenZ from the first version(based on 4.1.2). So yeah, I didn't try them.

Well, looking at your posts I thought you were dirty flashing from stock to CM11 and other ROMs, because with your issues it's impossible that you clean flashed everything.

And about the developers and their work - they can't do that, why? Because people like you will complain about no updates, bugs and no support...
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliiahmed.20:
Then please amuse me with how i do a clean flash like you ?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrSteve555:
Well, you wrote the correct steps earlier, but you didn't include formatting /system, so in the flashing process some files were left intact thanks by updater-script backuptool.

Anyway, it's not just about the correct or incorrect way. It just seems like a user mistake for me...

Let's end this discussion now, I don't want to fight with anyone about why custom ROMs on their phones perform worse than for happy majority.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliiahmed.20:
I do format the system and i do wipe battery stats i dont think you would add anything to my knowledge

and happy majority yeah right :svetius::svetius::svetius:
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrSteve555:
Wiping battery stats is completely useless step.

Yes, happy majority on(for example) CM/PA/PAC that enjoys the smoothness, stability and battery life of these ROMs(ofc you will argue about that these ROMs have no updates, no support, ppor battery life and performance, but as I said, the discussion about that is ended).
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jeik:
I dont even know why we are wasting our time on you...Pls buy another phone,leave us alone.However, I doubt that even the note 3 will be good for you,as you are lost in space and time.eXistenz was updated 1/7/2014,that was 1 month and almost 2 weeks ago,not 3 months.The reason it wasnt updated is that there is no reason for it to be updated at the moment.The illusion that you put yourself in is false and broken,as only ROMs which arent complete need updates every day,or if they added new features.All stock based roms give you the latest SONY UI,and if you dont like them,SONY isnt the right company for you.None of us notice lag on it,or on any custom rom.I dont know what your complex brain expects from a phone this good.If you arent satisfied,try unlocking the bootloader,and installing FXPCM11,that rom is blazing fast,but the bootloader unlock is the price for it.I am honestly using NexusCM11,and it is fast and smooth as butter.try following install instructions completely,and the ROMs wont lag.You cant just pop a thread,with a goal of insulting people who do much more for their property than you.If you think they all suck,you can make one yourself,so we can admire your ambitions.But the bigger chance is simply that you can not be satisfied,even if someone gave you a xperia z2/galaxy s5/note 3 or the lg g3.You would always complain.But I have an idea!

Care only for performance?

Because "on teh internetz" there is a simple rule - don't feed the trolls.

Is there a single good ROM?

Yes, there are lots of good ROMs.

Is there any good ROM seriously?

CM11 nightlies, neXus PA KK, neXus PAC KK, stock odexed with some mods and xposed modules(yes, I'm serious). It's only my opinion, but other people will tell you the same.

He either has a faulty xsp or just beeing ignorant, it's pretty obvious that xsp is pretty fast, only thing i've noticed is when installing apps it kinda freezes for some secs, not sure why (maybe slow emmc?) Every room seems stable, even stock is super fast, i had .205 for a week when i bought my sp before trying custom roms and lol it was fast and stable.. You either try a clean install with flashtool or just stop posting, and btw, you keep digging your own hole with the things you say
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruno_Puzoni:
I'm sorry guys, but I agree with OP. I can't find a good custom ROM. I tested so many ROMs here in XDA, none of them are good daily-drivers.

The only ROM I liked was AOKP, which WiFi wasn't working. I want to use a Custom like CM11 or Vanir for exemple (since I always used CM11 in my Motorola Defy+) but all of them become laggy after some time.

Currently I'm using Rooted, Deodexed and Zipaligned .207 Stock ROM from Dipesh, which is pretty much flawless. But is Stock. And 4.3!

I respect very much other developers, I think that without them I'd had already buy another device.

Remember, that is just my opinion, if you don't agree, reply me writing why. I'm not offending anyone, be gentle with your words. :silly:

try Nexus PA KK

Learn how it works. I use it as a daily driver and I believe it sees an update every week or so.

Single LED works as notification indicator. If you need all three, install illumination receiver and illumination bar control.

If you want louder sound, install Viper4Android.

Everything else just works.

Oh the 2nd mic is disabled intentionally.

If you are missing still missing anything use stock rom with xposed modules.

Time to become the annoyining wannabee moderator:

Where on earth did you the nerf and (other nts) to talk like this about the developers of the Xperia SP community. It is not only unwanted it is also very very very RUDE!!! ;) Dear God why are there still users with no respect :(

Here is a link to the XDA Rules: http://xdaforums.com/announcement.php?a=81

You are a member for two years now and you still don't know how to react here? That seems a bit odd.

So let me answer your question:

There is no good ROM.. Every ROM has its own issues, tweaks, mods and looks. It depends on your behavior with your phone. If you are a heavy tweaker CyanogenMod is the one for you. Want Sony look with extras try ExistenZe ;)

If you can't find a decent one then:

A: Use the Stock ROM

B: Create a ROM yourself

If you can't find a ROM or you can't create one.. Then option A with Root is the choice for you!

But please read the rules and have some respect for the work of others..

To the rest:

Rule:

2.4 Personal attacks, racial, political and / or religious discussions: XDA is a discussion forum about certain mobile phones. Mobile phones are not racial, political, religious or personally offensive and therefore, none of these types of discussions are permitted on XDA.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Jaxp3r:
According to the Sprint coverage, I should be getting solid LTE coverage in Hartford. I rooted my phone over a year ago (currently on BadBoyz Sense 6 ROM) and I believe I've done the proper maintenance, but the LTE reception I'm getting is abysmal. I can usually load things faster on 3G when I switch from LTE/CDMA to just CDMA. Not to mention the battery drain from lack of "coverage."

That leads me to question whether or not I've missed something I should have done for my phone, if it's just my location in my building at work (though it shouldn't be as I'm right next to a window), if Sprint is lying, or if I messed something up with my latest flash(es) of the ROMs - any ideas?

Thanks!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] gk1984:
Sprint and most carriers exaggerate their coverage to look better and different phones pick up different signals better/worse than others. I also get poor LTE in places Sprint claims ought to be excellent.

Here are a couple of apps that use the signal ACTUAL users are getting (crowd-sourced data)

Sensorly: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sensorly.viewer

Open Signal: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.staircase3.opensignal

You can help fight this exaggeration by letting the FCC run random network checks on your phone. They use this data to hold carriers accountable to their promises.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Jaxp3r:
Thanks for the info.

It's not so much that it's a poor (read: slow) connection, it's that it cuts out to the point that I usually can't even download MMS messages in my group chats. As soon as I disable LTE and switch to 3G, I receive them, but at a slow, expected, pace.
