Yes you can flash it with doomkernel. I have done it a number of times. Works just fine. It has CWM 6.0.2.7. Just copy the rom and gapps to sdcard. Reboot into cwm. Wipe data, cache and dalvik cache. Flash the rom. Flash gapps. Then reboot.

I used the pa lollipop gapps(nano package).

Hope this helps :)

Follow the steps here to flash the ROM. Just don't flash the carbon boot.img since You already have the a recovery.

How to install this rom on Xperia SL

Hi,

I tried to install this rom on Xperia SL

But it shows error that this is for Nozomi device

Please Help.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] vishals16:
I don't know why that is. I have flashed the rom in the past using doomkernel. It has cwm which worked for me. It would be better if you try via twrp.

Battery liife isn't bad. I think it is the same as the kitkat based roms available. Charging seems to take a bit more time i think.

Thanks for nAOSP

Thanks for the excellent ROM. It was either a flash for me or buying into a new handset. nAOSP feels like it is brand new again!

Some questions - tried to look for them, but didn't find answers.

Screen Pinning does not seem to work - rather the unpinning. It has to do with the hardware buttons or so I read in the main thread. Question is: is there a path identified to solution? ETA?

The swipe functionality, although clearly switched on in settings, does not seem to work. Are you guys aware of that?

I sometimes am unable to connect to WiFi's although they are known. Rebooting the device solves the issue.

Bluetooth keeps on connecting and disconnecting in my car. This didn't happen with the Sony 4.2 ROM.

edit: One last thing. The clock's night mode seems to switch off somewhere in the middle of the night - showing a black screen instead of the night mode clock. It does not seem to be a setting I miss... or is it... <_<

For begining you have released one greeeat ROM ! Thanks you very much !

But i'd like report one possible bug :-/

sorry for my bad english

good bye
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] vishals16:
You need to extract the boot.img from nAOSProm-5.0-b15.zip or nAOSProm-5.0-b16.zip whichever you like. Then flash that boot.img before flashing the whole rom. Then only will it work. And you don't have to flash the openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.1-nozomi.img with fastboot otherwise you will lose recovery when you flash the boot.img from zip. You need to install it in fota partition. If need an already rooted rom. Place openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.1-nozomi.img on sdcard. Then either install terminal emulator or get an adb shell through computer.

Then type

su [press enter]

dd if=/sdcard/openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.1-nozomi.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p11 [press enter]

(Provide superuser access when prompted.

Good Luck :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
After You wipe data, cache and system don't try to flash the ROM directly. Select Reboot into recovery . It will ask You to install SuperSU, swipe to say yes. Then once again when You are again in recovery, don't do anything else, just flash the ROM directly.

how to enable the "Backup Account" under Backup & Restore?

Thanks the ROM runs very well, the phone works as new.

Except I searched over the site still could not figure out the way to enable the "Backup Account" which shows "Backing up to debug-only private cache".

Used "ADB SHELL bmgr list transports", it shows

* android/com.android.internal.backup.LocalTransport

com.google.android.gms/.backup.BackupTransportService (some post says this works)

then designate transport to "com.google.android.gms/.backup.BackupTransportService" by "bmgr transport"

it shows

android/com.android.internal.backup.LocalTransport

com.google.android.gms/.backup.BackupTransportService

no "*" is shown??

The phone's Back Account will change to "No account is currently storing backed up data", still not working.

I tried different GAPPS

pa_gapps-modular-full-5.0.1-BETA5-20141225-signed

pa_gapps-modular-full-5.0.1-RC2-20150125a-signed

My experience

I did some tests with early releases of this rom and I had some problems, so I switched to Paranoid Android.

Now I've tried again with b16 and... WOW!!! It's almost perfect! :laugh:

I did a clean install, no OC, default settings in developer options, gApps micro package. I'm using it from days and never had a problem, a reboot, a crashed app, nothing!

I just want to thank mickybart for the great work and for giving new life to my old XS! :good:

I want also report some minor issues I've noticed (I'm new and I can't write in the developer thread for the moment):

- I can't activate vocal input button on the keybord (both on stock one and others): it says there's no vocal input method activated, but it is...

- Some lags when shooting a video.

- Screencast function is not working (I know that probably it's not supported by the phone's HW, but if that's the case, maybe it's better to remove the option at all)

- Battery drain, even worse than the stock rom... I have to try to disable DT2W to see if it gets better.

[feature request]

Thank you for your latest very smooth Lollipop b16. I'm using it as my daily device now. I want to make a feature request. Can you make the calculator app like Paranoidandroid 4.4 with many feature like history or science calculator? I have to use calculator so much and sometimes it's very annoy because it dont have history function.

Btw, I find out that if I turn off wifi it cost about 1.2% of battery per hour (check by batterystats) but when I turn on wifi it raise upto about 5~6% per hour. I double check on other rom like Paranoid it about 4%. So can you config it a little bit to reduce the battery consuming. Sorry for my bad english. Hope that I can help.

Experience with b16

First of all big thanks for the Lollipop release! Keep up the good work.

I have installed this ROM two weekends ago, after struggling for many hours reading on the net how to do, as I have never flashed my device before. This is my experience this far:

- Much faster than the latest stock ROM

- Battery drains much much faster when using 3G VS stock ROM. Same goes with WiFI but things are better there.

- Some random flashes of the screen here and there. Have not concluded when happen so I can get a logcat created...

- Pulse light notifications do not work for missed calls. This would be nice to be fixed for next release. They work fine for SMS though

- Flash cannot be switched on within NeoReader app

- I loved that you get back to using Android 2.3 physical keys layout, as I do not use Google search etc

- I loved that you can disable system tasks from running if you do not use them. The mobile runs much faster if you do stop tasks you do not use (you have to be a bit careful of course..)

I have a n00bie question:

Is there a way to export all current settings of this ROM (ie changes you made on the options all over the device) . flash let's say b17 when this will become available and the restore back those settingns?

Thanks again!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] vishals16:
When b17 is out, you can dirty flash the rom on current one. Just flash without wiping data and your customization and settings will remain intact.

nAOSP Bugs

First of all, thank you for the effort in making this amazing rom. We truly appreciate the time you spent in making our obsolete xperia s and xperia sl still awesome!

I just recently installed the B16 Rom and found some bugs namely:

1. Low volume for loud speaker when playing music ( probably due to stereo settings) but using a headset or headphone is fine.

-this has to be the biggest problem, the loud speaker sounds like listening to just one stereo earphone when playing music

-i have used several music players and they're all the same, even with google music and the default player

2. Flickering on the screen especially if you're using live wallpapers

3. Battery charging would show 8hrs or 6hrs remaining but it usually updates after a few minutes

4. Light bar doesn't always work and no longer functions with Illumination Bar app

5. The Camera app doesn't have night mode, silent mode and the pictures are terrible ( it doesn't look like it was shot from a 12.0 mp cam)

- today I installed google camera from the playstore, it's butter smooth and I think it's a good idea to use that instead.

Everything else is perfect. The battery life is good.

I'm using xperia sl.

First of all, I like this ROM as it is much more stable and faster than the 4.3 based ROM I used before.

However I got one big problem: Mobile data doesn't work. There's an exclamation mark next to the connection indicator and I can't get it to register in the mobile network I use. Phone calls just work fine. I have to enter my PIN and so on and it shows the carrier name at various places. Just mobile data is not working.

I am from Germany and my I got a Kabel BW SIM which is using the o2 network. My Baseband-Version is 8660-AAABQOLYM-314010-39. I am using nAOSProm b16 with the oc_ultra kernel because performance was so bad on 4.3, but currently the max frequency is set to 972 MHz, I don't need more.

I already rebooted it many times, reflashed it, took out the SIM card and cleaned it and fiddled with the APN settings but no luck.

Has anyone experienced this problem and how do I solve it?

About overclocking

I'm on standard (no OC) b16 and all is working fine, but now I'd like to test overclocking...

Can I just flash the appropriate OC kernel (I can use flashtool) and then set the right value in developer options? Or I have to reflash again the entire ROM?

Another question: does OC have much impact on battery drain on normal use?

Thanks for help!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] vishals16:
Yes, you can flash the appropriate kernel directly via flashtool or fastboot. Overclocking the rom do have an impact on battery life. But on normal use you won't see much difference.
