Just to cut the OT, I just want to remember you that the 920 was one generation ahead, and besides I never asserted this switch, nor the OS difference have been downgrades.

If you want the most flawless experience, then I suggest nAOSP, rather than this old cm, and if you claim you don't feel you have more customization than WP, trust me, you are wandering.

You can fix partitions size with this, have search bar back with gapps nano package.. and while you are at it, why not, switch to F2FS

And if you don't want to mess up with flashing and all then, just stick with stock 4.1.2, which I'm pretty sure can still do more things than the microsoft operating system.

ps: i guess your snappiness has a lot to do with animations, if you still claim z5 hasn't.

Disable double tap to wake

Hi, I'm currently using this ROM and I love it, specially for an old device such as this.

However, I had to replace the screen a year ago because it broke, and the replacement screen might be somewhat faulty.

After a while, the screen will begin to register some phantom presses somewhere random in the screen (it changes every time), difficulting the use of the phone, to the point of having to force reset it, since it keeps dismissing the shutdown dialogue!

I still haven't pinned down the trigger, it may happen an hour after turning on, or after a couple of days, but it will happen eventually if I don't reboot.

Previously, before double tap to wake up, I would just turn off the screen and turn it back on, and it would work, but not anymore since the screen no longer sleeps fully.

Is there a way to disable it? I don't use it much anyways since it barely works on my phone and I believe is the source of these problems.

Thanks and keep up the good work

I'm noticing a slowdown in the initial boot, and just installed the rom was much faster, perhaps because of the installed applications. The FM radio does not let you use other applicationsAnd removing the headphones starts google play music, which is quite annoying, also to apply a new wallpaper you must restart the phone and sometimes loses the wallpaper applied returning to the stock one. Anyon has same issues? When next rom update? Will fix something of these problems? Sorry for bad english

Hallo everyone! First of all, I want to thank for this rom. I installed it yesterday night, and I must say that it is fantastic. But I have some doubts about it:

1. I have made a clean install. I have noticed that the device gets a bit hot at times, especially when I am downloading for a while. That doesn't happen with a stock or other unofficial roms... My question is: does this rom have overclocking? I have read here something about OC kernell, but, as far as I know, you have to install that kernell, 'cause it is a different one from the one this rom has.

Another question is: Does this rom admit layers? I am not sure about this matter...

Another point is that I have seen that this rom is not rooted... My question is, which is the easiest way to make this rom root? I have never worked with Android 5.1. before.

And, finally: is there a way to avoid that the lightbar turns on when a notification is recieved? I mean, independently from led.

I hope someone can help me. Thank you very much in advance.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] GjorgiDxc:
Rom has discontinued for half a year now. It was buggy at the time it got discontinued so I'd suggest trying oneofakind rom or better yet naosp rom by the same developer that made this one. Plus bot the other rom are on Marshmallow which is far better than lollipop
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] TXUTXI72:
Thanks for your answer! At the moment I am trying this one, because battery seems to last longer in this one. That's why I am interested to know about all those questions I made before.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] GjorgiDxc:
It's a CM Rom so Layers don't work here, and the rom is prerooted (enable it in Developer Settings). The light bar can be disabled in both the other roms I mentioned IDK if this one has it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] TXUTXI72:
Thank you very much indeed for your answer, once again! Yes, i am really willing to try marshmallow on my old xperia, but the installation process looks so difficult! It requieres things I have never done so far. But defenetly I will try!!! :o
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] GjorgiDxc:
Naosp has lollipop builds too, they're maintained with security fixes every month
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] TXUTXI72:
Yes, I know, but since the new release of Lollipop I think it is needed to partition the sd card, just like Marshmallow, so I guess both of them are now equally difficult for a newby like me to be installed...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] A6ekAK:
Everyone is n00b when trying something for first time. I've installed MM without thinking "ohh, I will brick my Xperia, better leave it on LP". Mickybart gave exact instructions on how to install MM, follow 'em carefully and it will work for sure :)

Ps. You can install nAOSP 5 without repartitioning like on Android 6, special version of LP will be released for people who would want to return to 5 without problems - for now it's good for you :>
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] GjorgiDxc:
Repartitioning is not needed on Lollipop, so you are safe. The repartitioning in Lollipop is purely optional, only if you want bigger /data partition to install more apps. If you're fine with the 2GB of data on your Xperia just keep 'em. :D I once again strongly recommend giving nAOSP 5.1 a try. :)

EDIT: I didn't see that b29 needs partitioning sorry. It's still worth a try. The procedure is easy. :)

---------- Post added at 09:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:14 PM ----------

Funny thing is you can't brick the device at all. :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] TXUTXI72:
I am not sure, but I think from now on (since yesterday's upgrade), whoever wants to upgrade naosp Lollipop will have to make the repartitioning process, am I wrong? (I wish I were :D).
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] verma.arun833:
Sadly u r not wrong buddy :(
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mickybart:
Guys,

The main problem is that people want me to continue the support of Android 5. So I'm happy to do it if I can but I have only 1 Xperia S and this is my day to day phone. Millosr who maintained nAOSP 5.1 since last 2 releases migrate to 6.0 too.

So it is really too long for me to support Android 5 without the data and sdcard merged because without this merge I need to backup my /data/media outside the phone to flash the ROM and run some sanity checks every time that I need to release a new 5.1 version. (And I'm not talking about TWRP that is not the same version)

With this merge I can switch quickly from 5.1 to 6.0 and vice-versa. This is the main reason about the new partition layout into b29 (without taking into account request of some users to have a big /data and possibility to move from 6.0 to 5.1 easily)

Anyway I have proposed someone else to take the lead to compile and test the noemulated version (support the old partition layout). The source code is ready and linked in OP. At this time nobody seems interested to do it. So if you really don't want to repartition your device... you know what you can do :)

Thanks

EDIT: I discourage you to use uCyan mainly for security reason. And I confirm that I have no plan to release CM 13 mainly because it is not easy to have an official support (but possible for this device because everything is working now on 6.0 - Bluetooth headset included) and because I will not use this ROM (and the time to do it).
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] TXUTXI72:
The repartitioning process is not a problem to me anymore. Finally I did it :D I recommend everybody to install Linux somewhere in their hard disks. With Linux everything is easier (with windows I was unable to enter the adb shell). Running and testing naosp 5.1 b29 since yesterday. Thanks, Mickybart :)

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mickybart:
Please stop to ask for CM13. I already explained why I don't want to do it.

Works to have an official support is now possible with CM 13 (Android 6) as all features of the device are working (bluetooh 3.0 headset is now working and was the last blocking point on Android 5 / cm 12.x). This is a long way to do it and I don't want to take that time on my side. So if you want it, you can start to work on it based on uCyan 12.1 and nAOSP 6.0 source code.

On my side I will be here to help and explain some specific code for Xperia S (lightbar, zram, bluetooth, FMradio etc) but nothing more. I will not do any integration code.

nAOSP 7.0 will be my next work
