Sorry for nagging you!

The nAOSProm says ** (Needs reflash). (See attached picture)

Is this normal?

and Thanks! :good:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] vishals16:
After flashing the overclocked kernel, doesn't it show the overclocked value? Or does it say disabled. You can select the value manually and check in trickster mod whether the max cpu speed is shown or not.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abhinavjoshua:
I manually selected the third value (1.51-2.05 Ghz). It was disabled by default. Thanks!

I need som help with flashing...

Hi,

Whenever I try to flash the ROM through TWRP, it flashes successfully. However, when I try to reboot to system, the screen does not come on and the sony logo is not displayed.

I managed to flash the ROM earlier and it was amazing, but I had to reflash due to running out of space in the phone storage because I tried to reflash my apps from an update.zip made using Titanium Backup. I am using exactly the same method as I did when I managed to make it work, but now the phone will not boot (even to recovery) and now I keep having to reflash the stock ROM using flashtool.

When I try to flash the boot.img through fastboot, both before and after flashing the ROM, it says "FAILED (remote: the device must be rooted first) even though I have rooted the phone.

Can anyone help? It would be much appreciated.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Salvien:
I have a problem.

I installed this rom/ gaps.

Later i Installed super SU and my phone stop on SONY logo.

Help me with this problem. I can open only CWM, which name is TEAM WIN Recovery Project.

Please fast :C

If it's the second boot, it takes time (upto 20 mins). Be patient. It will boot up.

help me

please help me, my sony XSL still original from the factory, I want to turn it into Android 5.0 lollipop, what should I do & can gime me tutorial?﻿
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Technologicfuture:
Hi @ All, :)

i have some questions to you smart peeps ;)

1. can someone please tell me what the main bugs or problems are with this rom?

i read that Battery Drain is an issue...

2. Also i would like to know if you people would recommend this Rom for everyday use, so is it stable? i am currently using stock .96 jb 4.1.2

3. what is the main difference between this rom (naosp) and pure aosp lollipop.? do they have different bugs? and is one of these two roms more stable?

4. will all my data get deleted if i flash this rom? do i need to backup all my files from the phone?

Thx in advance

keep up the good work peeps..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] karasu1024:
1. The idle/standby time for battery is good but while it's on using wifi/data, it can consume a lot (i think that's normal)

2. I use it everyday, there are some problems like the default email (not gmail) not taking password. Everything else is fine. You get a few hiccups nothing major.

3.This rom is from pure aosp but has more features.

4.Once you unlock your bootloader, it will wipe the data (restored to factory settings). The sdcard data doesn't get affected though. So back everything up before changing anything.

**I'm using Xperia SL, so this ram slows my phone but this has an overclock option which I now use.

Hope this answered your questions.

I'm testing b18 and I find it slowly and with more lags, more than b17, wich was quite smooth. I tought it was because of dirty flash, so I did a clean one, but it's the same... :(

It's only me?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] pejman97:
Yes..you're completely right..I did both (dirty and clean) and both of them were slow on b18..altogether b17 was very smooth and fast..hope it will be fixed on next version
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] schumifer1:
Try the new version then guys!

I am though very pleased with 17
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] pejman97:
:confused::cool:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] patrick4a17:
b18 is more laggy than b17 in my opinion.

And one question : how to enable fast charge?

I have the same problems. It has become very unresponsive.

The lag in opening apps is very unbearable.

just flashed b19alpha boot.img and it's better! Though I think b17 is still smoother.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] pejman97:
I flashed b18 and it's too slow..even I tried boot-b19-alpha and that's the same..is the problem of this version because of the kernel? I used b17 before with nano gapps and that was perfect..is it OK that I flash the kernel b17 (boot-b17.img)of b17 on b18?will my problem solve?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] pejman97:
Use "Kernel tuner" app. It has a lot of options for your kernel like fast charge;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] patrick4a17:
Thanks for the suggestion. Besides, I have enabled the softkey, but I can't disable the hardware key.... just wondering how.

I think you can't disable the hardware keys..they're so useful on necessary times..I suggest u not to think about how to disable them..only enjoy software keys just like me;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Technologicfuture:
Hey :o:D ,

i flashed b 18 and have a several problems:

- mobile data doesnt work!!! same problem as :

ALSO:

-the Browser (firefox) is very slow compared to jelly bean stock.

-Camera is very laggy

- this 'illumination bar notification' app that doesn't work.

the Illumation Bar doesnt light up for this app.

-the system is slow as a whole while loading apps

- sometimes screens flickering occurs

- after a missed call the notification LED doesnt flash / stays off and doesnt light up

Thanks :good:

hey karasu, im using the default email app and it took my password and im using this email app with no problems. maybe you should try again or something ..just sayin.. peace
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] vishals16:
To enable softkeys you can edit the the build.prop using any root explorer. Under ADDITIONAL BUILD PROPERTIES find the line

qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 and set in to 0. It should then be

qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

And if you want to disable the hardware keys use the root explorer and goto system/usr/keylayout/ and open the file clearpad.kl. Open it as a text file and strike out the 3 lines of menu, home and back(don't strike out the power one). They should look like

#key 139 MENU VIRTUAL

#key 102 HOME VIRTUAL

#key 158 BACK VIRTUAL
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] karasu1024:
Hey Technologicfuture,

good for you! I have tried dirty wipe so many times and clean wipe about 3 times now and the email doesn't work at all.

It gets to the last part of the set up, the part where it asks you the intervals in syncing the emails.

As soon as i hit the next button, it says incorrect password followed by email app has stopped working.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] patrick4a17:
Moreover, I found that b18 has a more serious battery drain compare to b17. Anyone has the same feeling?

I have a small question, in the main thread I read about people installing xposed modules. But I thought xposed is not working on lollipop because of ART, or is this ROM still using DALVIK?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ZeligPC:
There's a new specific version of Xposed that works (with compatible modules) with Lollipop.

I haven't tried it yet on Xperia S.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Nikosvaio:
[MENTION=6043081]mickybart[/MENTION] I had the same issues with b18 as [MENTION=3365254]marshel[/MENTION], with random freezes, lagging and such. Using Chrome was almost impossible. I reduced the read ahead to 128Kb as you advised with ''aero control'' and, till now, it's like i have a new phone! b18 now works perfectly, and Chrome for example runs super smooth!Thank you so much for your amazing work! You are a great dev!!!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] patrick4a17:
I haven't tried it as well, because Xposed is still quite unstable on Lollipop. Another reason is that I think Lollipop is already good enough (exclude the bugs) :rolleyes:

Sent from my Xperia S
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ZeligPC:
I flashed back b17 kernel (on b18 ROM) and the phone is flying again! :laugh:

Maybe I'll try b18 kernel again setting sd card read ahead to 128kb, as suggested by Mickybart, because it seemed to have a better battery life (the phone becomes less hot too), but the old kernel solves the lagging issue for me. :good:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] patrick246:
So, which carrier do you use? Also o2? Which baseband version do you have? Maybe we can nail this problem down to something.

No it's just Say's flashing and nothing happens next
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
Weird, even Mine takes nearly 10 minutes, but it always flashes in a single go.

Try flashing kernel(boot.img) separately via flashtool and then flashing the ROM via TWRP.

Yeah tried that also but didn't worked it either . Now using Pure AOSP Lollipop test11 . Its working but not that well.

Hi guys, this morning I have tried to turn off airplane mode but data wasn't working and my phone was stuck on searching for a provider, so I soft rebooted it by pressing power and volume up, but when I turned it on all the apps that I had moved to the external storage weren't available anymore and I couldn't access any file on it. The phone boots fine and there isn't any other problem though, I can install apps to the internal storage but everything on the external one is unavailable. How can I solve this issue?

Thanks a lot in advance

About xposed. Works, installs. Used the classic Gravity Box and got amazing addOns. Unfortunately bluetooth and handsfree sound was significantly lower and i could not find how to increase volume. Uninstalled gravity box and could again hear from bluetooth and wired handsfree
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
You need to flash it via flashool, You cannot flash it directly using TWRP. No need to rename, it works directly.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Padreseed:
twrp version 2.8.4.1 can sew ".img", in the description of the installation naosp said that for flashing fast enough in the core twrp prescribe lines "echo" oc_ultra "> /data/property/persist.kernel.oc". In addition to that on the Russian forum 4pda indicated that the firmware kernel through twrp done after flashing rom, through it though. Why do I flashtool? Or describe then the process properly install the kernel and firmware on the newest twrp on our machine.

noob's questions from new comer about this "near"AOSP ROM for Xperia S

Hello, i'm new comer on xda forums and i never flash a complete ROM before (only Xposed mods) so i would get some help before do anything. I hope xda community will help me :D

I have a Xperia S and i am thinking about flash an AOSP lollipop ROM. I want an AOSP ROM because i use the Xposed framework and i think custom ROM are useless since we can add/remove/upgrade mods very simply thanks to it.

I wonder what "near"AOSP exactly means. What are the features that your ROM offers ?

I have already noted z-RAM, few apps from cyanogenmod and overclocking. Are there other features ?

I choose an Xperia S because of all the cool features this smartphone offers like bravia engine, HD camera and microphone, HDMI out port, ... Will all this works using your custom ROM ?

(for bravia engine, i see threads on xda forums to flash it)

Likewise, i live in France, will i be able to send SMS and call anyone with your custom ROM ? (I know that the answer is "YES" but I just want to be really sure about that)

Finally, many thanks to everyone who will help me ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
Well, flashing a Kitkat ROM directly is a big step, You need to unlock bootloader, backup stuff using different apps, and all. I would recommend You use a stock based custom ROM for some time, then come to this these types of ROM's.

If You do want to flash this types of ROM, then know this, these types of ROM change Your phone's software entirely. They are not like Sony firmware, what You get is most basic Android, with no coating, just like nexus devices. And these ROM's are stable, but not always.

So even then if You want to go on. following are questions to Your answers:

1. AOSP is entirely basic. So in AOSP, You get stuff like more options in Power Menu(reboot), some handy items like quick settings pull, pre rooted, etc. These stuff although seem normal, are pretty needed and missing in pure AOSP.

2. Bravia Engine, HD Camera won't work. In fact, as soon as You unlock Your bootloader, You loose Your Bravia engine, and Bravia engine works only on stock based ROM(In Xperia S's case, the Android 4.1.2 based.)(You need to backup DRM keys before You unlock bootloader.)

Camera works, but it won't be as good as Sony camera. HDMI seems to be working good although. You cannot flash bravia engine stuff later on, at least for Xperia S.

3. Yes, calling and SMS work, most of the people use this ROM as daily driver, meaning for daily use.

So if You want to flash this ROM, backup Your DRM keys first. Search for TA partition backup. Do it before unlocking bootloader.

Then unlock bootloader using official way, and then follow procedure from here to flash the ROM.

a gr8 rom

i installed this rom on xperia acro S and is working very well,but i encountered a big problem,as this phone don't have an external slot for memory cards,it has just internal,after a while the rom stop seen it and even if i reboot the phone is not seeing it again,only after i flash the rom again,so,if is any way to fix that can i ask for it ? oh,btw,i tryed to install the boot-b19alpha3.zip file and it didn't worked,gaved me a fail install,dunno why,but the phone is working gr8 with it,ty,i will be very gr8ful if the problem that i said could be fixed,i don't like to keep flashing the rom over and over again to have access to the internal memory
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] SweetlowDjo:
I don't know about internal storage. But for the b19alpha3, I just extracted it and flash via Flashtoot in fastboot mod. Worked great with OC to 1,836. Hope it helped. Xperia S
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
Read the title, this ROM is for Xperia S, not Xperia Acro S. If You cross flash, ROM will work, but You won't get external storage, Your phone won't charge and many other stuff as this ROM is not meant for Acro S. And also, the boot-b19alpha3.zip is not a flashable zip.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] appollokillers1:
well,even so,is not for xperia S either,is actually for xperia SL or to say better 26ii,so u didn't read it well either,i did found out what was messing with that thing,i am installing always the softkeys on my screen coz the real keys r not working gd anymore and for some reason that make it lose the rom to read the internal memory drive,very wierd,my phone do charge,my memory is working well,and if u had any idea of phones,u would know of the specs of this phone has no slot for extended memory card,but ty for the info about that zip file,i will flash it separatly in diferent way and try it,even the the 1.7 overclock is working well
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
I did read the title and wrote it. Its is "[ROM] [5.0.0] nAOSProm for

Xperia S

". Also, You mentioned You flashed this ROM on "Acro S", which is not the correct device.

Also, Xperia S=Xperia SL, so it doesn't matter if the ROM is for Xperia S or Xperia SL.

The problem might be due to the app You are using as said by You.

And that is plain rude.I do have ideas about phone and own a Xperia S, so watch what You say.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] vishals16:

internal memory problem

I've Xperia S with b18 rom and b19-alpha3 kernel. Non OC. Repartitioned to ~8Gb for data and ~20-21Gb for sdcard0. After some time after clean-flashing rom, gapps, kernel and using phone as usual I've found, that internal memory is not mounted. Still can mount it with

mount -rw -t vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p15 /storage/sdcard0

But system and apps don't see this correctly.

I've tried to edit fstab.semc to mount it directly from mmcblk0p15 and not from

/devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0

, but it regenerates everytime from fstab.dynamic

Then I've tried to find dynamic file in kernel ramdisk. With no luck. Found it only in sources for kernel wich I don't want to compile myself.

Any help, please?
