Yeah mate, i was too frustrated because that's is my Work phone. i flashed Stock and flashed your ROM , using stock kernel now.

everything working perfectly fine for now.

when you get time can you do some tweaks ?

like, right now its 5 * 4 icon / page , can you make 6 * 4 ?

and can you bring back the "phone lock option" on search key which is next to the "Back key" ( physical key ) on our Ion ?

thanks a lot for the ROM :good::)

Installing aborted because bad file (symlink error...) . Flashing stock right now. Any idea for installing this update?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Chocklety Boyee:
Ok lemme check the file uploaded with that I have in my lapy...

But first check whether the downloaded file gets extracted or not...Are u on ghost kernel...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anhbinx:
I extracted the zip proberly. Im on stock => in CWM flash ghost-kernel-f then flash the zip. But it said some symfile failed ( error in file sdcard:/GF Rom ...)

Was i right ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Chocklety Boyee:
Hey I mean to say...if you can extract the zip correctly with any file explorer or winrar...the zip is not corrupted and can be installed properly... If you are on stock..u need to mount the system and install the ghost kernel otawise iy wont get flashed...or u can extract the ghost kernel...extract the boot.img and flash via flash tool in fastboot mode.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Chocklety Boyee:
Guys for conformation I reflashed the carbon rom...Flashed the zip again...it is flashing without any error...The only thing is flash ghost kernel..wipe all except boot and sdcard and below it.. I dont remember..the flash the zip...if errror again..try to extract the zip using esxplorer..the bad zip never gets xtracted..that means downloaded file is corrupted or there might be some error during uploading...but I compared the files uploaded and that in my lappy...both are same...so guys happy flashing good luck...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] :
The zip works fine. SS attached.

The things is that it doesn't get flashed with twrp. We get symlinks error.

To get it flashed properly first flash ghost kernel. Then with MI recovery wipe data, wipe cache and dalvik cache and format system. Then install the zip. It will work.

But after doing this my WiFi module broke.

I remember once [MENTION=5453015]Chocklety Boyee[/MENTION] you posted a method to solve the WiFi issue. Can you plz share that.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Chocklety Boyee:
Thanks [MENTION=5225837]dhruvmu[/MENTION] bro...You can flash the ghost kernel immediately after flashing the rom and the broken module will be back again...Told several but some people here dont follow the instruction and keeps troubling me..You can post some screenies for proof bro..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lonelykite:

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] :

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Captain Droid:
One issue will be corrupt Zip file. Re-Download and try flashing again.,

else the problem will be your phone model . i think the zip is corrupted.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] lonelykite:
zip file is not corrupted. its like, as said earlier, we have to flash ghost kernel n install this rom via MIUI recovery only n once again after installing the rom we have to flaash ghost kernel.

its working fine for me i am using this rom for more than 15 hours now no issues
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anhbinx:
Sorry. What is Miui recovery ? I just used CWM and TWRP before. Can someone give me the link of Miui Recovery ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Chocklety Boyee:
Check the flashing instruction on op..and pz guys dont act like noob..you can scroll few post back and there you ll be geting everything you want..[emoji111] [emoji111] [emoji111]
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] anhbinx:
I have flashed rom successfully and would like to share instruction for anyone who faced "symlink" like me. I was on stock rom.

The problem is not the Zip file. It because CWM and TWRP can not flash. Miui recovery intergrated in Ghost kernel final works fine.

1. Unlocked bootloader.

2. Go to CWM or TWRP, flash the Ghost kernel final. Then power off the phone.

3. Press Power button + Volumn up to see the Blue led to enter Miui Recovery.

4. Wipe data, cache, davik cache.

5. Flash the rom, then flash Ghost kernel final again.

6. Reboot.

Thank for your support. [MENTION=5453015]Chocklety Boyee[/MENTION]

So the new version is only for UB?! :S
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Captain Droid:
Not necessary. :)

You can flash the ROM on locked Boot loaders too. He is suggesting to use Ghost kernel because of the Free RAM & Extra Smoothness you get .

I'm using this ROM and on Stock Kernel and i'm happy. Battery is very much OK for me. :) :good:

Unlocking your BL and flashing ghost kernel is your wish , but not necessary to make this ROM run on your phone.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] raclimja:
I just purchased a 64GB Sandisk Extreme Plus MicroSD card (80MB/s Read and 50MB/s Write) and the performance on Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 WiFi SM-P600 is absolutely horrid.

I tested using A1 SD Bench and i got 34.44MB/s Read and 23.50MB/s Write which is significantly slower than what the MicroSD card is capable nor the built in storage which scores 140.96MB/s Read and 38.48MB/s write.

I am running a bone stock non-rooted 4.4.2 (build #KOT49H.P600UEUCND2).

So is the MicroSD slot on the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 WiFi SM-P600 bandwidth capped at 35MB/s Read and 25MB/s Write?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Paulx777:
From what I understand from recently looking into buying a new micro SD card for myself, that's pretty normal. I was searching through Amazon comparing the different 64GB micro SD cards and reading the reviews and came across a guy who wrote a review explaining why this is. It got way too technical for me so I can't recall exactly why. But he claimed that it's normal for any brand of micro SD to have read/write scores way below what the manufacturer prints on the package. Anyway, he seemed to really know what he was talking about and he recommended the 64GB Samsung Pro (I think that's the name of it, there's the Samsung Evo and then it's the one a step above that), hee claimed that was the best one to buy. From what I remember the SanDisk and the Samsung 64GB cards are pretty similarly priced as well. It makes sense, a Samsung Micro SD card working the best in a Samsung product I guess. Maybe try to return the SanDisk and give the Samsung a try?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] blindmanpb:
The read/write speeds quoted on microSD cards usually state UP TO ##MB/s. Just like with gas mileage and battery life, actual results can vary widely based on specific usage.

The methods used by most benchmarking tools to measure speed will not be the same as the methods used by microSD card manufacturers.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] raclimja:
Actually when I put the Sandisk extreme plus on my USB 3.0 card reader and benchmarked it on my computer using as ssd, atto and crystal disk mark it achieved 84-93MB/s read and 44-63MB/s write so there is question of the microsd card itself not being capable reaching those speeds.

Not really. As far is I'm concerned, all lockscreen data is stored in db stated above. The data I need is only to see if phone developer is putting their info in Android default db or not. If so, app will make backup of original and replace it with blank (no lock screen) values.

Hello Folks,

I'm helping a friend to mod his m8 , he has installed 4.4.3 OTA I know I can unlock the bootloader via HTC dev then custom recovery and wakesauce to gain su acess, but can I use firewater to SOFF the phone after installing 4.4.3 OTA , I have read somewhere HTC patched stuff and firewater does not work on 4.4.3 devices?

Please advise ...
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hdorius:
Use sunshine...firewater already outdated
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Yes go for SunShine.

You don't need HTCDev if you use SunShine, as SunShine gains S-Off AND unlocks the bootloader. Following this way HTC don't come to know that the device has been changed. Thus you would not have any problems regarding warranty
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muk12:
Thanks for your reply mate.Sunshine is the way to go ....however I have used HTC android devices in the past and I want to know can AOSP/GPE ROMS be flashed on m8 with S ON by fastboot flash boot.img after installing ROM ZIP from the recovery ?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hdorius:
Yep,still the same like previous HTC phone,S-ON still can flash any custom rom and just flash boot.img after rom zip
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Yes but to flash AOSP/GPE ROMs could easily lead to problems if it is done wrong. For GPE as far as I know a conversion of the phone is needed, as the partition sizes are different. During this process the hole firmware has to be replaced by the GPE one with the black HBoot as well. So do carefully read the conversion threads if you are coming from a sense ROM!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
The partitions are only altered if a full conversion (by RUU) is performed. GPE based custom ROMs will run fine with no conversion (no partition change or hboot change required); as will any AOSP ROMs.

If you like it leave a comment :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
I agree with you. Good pictures are possible. Some folks like to tweak the brightness and contrast, although I find the base settings ok. But I wouldn't try taking good photos in dark/semi dark conditions - it's not good. The Macro along with flash works ok at night for really close up stuff but the flash is of little use for distance pitures at night.

In good light it's really pretty good at 1 and 2 megapixel setting. Keep in mind the pictures at this definition also appear much better when transferred to your PC. I can get a full 17 inch screen size with little or no pixelation at 2 megapixels and also clearer and brighter than it appears on the Hermes screen.

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Guest69:
@mobilecat

I'm really disappointed with the tytn's camera - i have an Orange M3100 version.

Try changing the sharpness and contrast settings both to 1.

It seems to be a fault that they are factory set at +7 and +6, ruining your chance of getting a good photo. Much better set as 1, especially the sharpness as it will otherwise draw a bold line around the detail. Unfortunately a restart resets to default.

Not sure about the T-Mobile version but the Orange version also will not take pics on the 2M superfine settings in most light conditions, you either get a blank pic or the camera app crashes and needs a restart.

I do love the tytn, just disappointed with the camera app, I have to mess about more with this than I do with my Canon SLR!

I'm not saying this is the case with all tytns, but the 3 I have had and the 2 others I have handled (all orange spv M3100) all suffer from the same issues.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
I agree it's annoying it loses the tweaked settings you enter. BUT have you seen Sutheeps examples using his link - they're great!!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Guest69:
Hi, I just downloaded the CoolCamera app, pushed the settings to max and snapped away; no crashes, no blank pics. Can't test this properly until daylight but this does look hopeful.

Agreed, Mike, I do admit that I have got a handful of very decent pics but I generally stopped using the camera as many more crashes and I'm sure I would have ended up throwing the tytn at the subject!

Fingers crossed, this coolcamera might be the end of the only gripe I have. I'm sure the problem is something to do with the Orange software.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Hope it works well and the subjects are safe!!!!!:eek: :eek: :eek:

Anybody know where to find CoolCamera? www.ateksoft.com isn't a good url now.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Guest69:
@berdinkerdickle

as an update,

I'm still more than happy with the results using CoolCamera, I do occasionally get crossover on my images: the edge of a pic has a thin border on one side of the previous image. I do rarely get blank images when set to maximum quality. The interface, IMO can be a little complicated but once used to it, I like the extended settings options. The standard app on the m3100, for me, is not worth turning on: constant crashes and blank pics every time it's used. I know this is probably a fault with the Orange firmware, or maybe just my handset but the previous 2 units were the same.

I have had some fabulous, impressive results from using coolcamera in half-decent lighting conditions, without it I simply would not use the camera.

I know others are getting good results from the built-in app, which is why I feel it's an Orange firmware issue, but if you're having trouble getting decent results yourself, even after turning the default sharpness and contrast settings down (again and again - reboot resets to silly default), give coolcamera a try.

here's a zip of about 10 recent pics http://www.sendspace.com/file/3ox7rv

If you want to know what settings I use, give me a shout.
