Yes I did, Cache first, and then again with Dalvik. Why is that not possible to wipe Dalvik in CM recovery? This recovery is too light. I would have liked to have a nandroid backup in order to get back to August build.

I could find in the logcat the following error:

Hello guys,

why do we have to flash boot.img all the time?

i did as i changed from CM11 to CM12 but now when i want to change from 20150831 to 20151206 i see that boot.img is an old file 20080229...:confused:

Are there any changes in the file without resetting the date?

thanks to the developer for there great work!:good:

I have force closed with other applications, like sms for example. I will need to do a full clean install to get the rom working :crying::crying::crying:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Bernique:
It was a issue with the GAPPs. I was used to opengapps, but even a clean install with them led to many force closed. No problem with the mini GAPPs advised :D. thanks

Yes, the file is always different.

"Did you flash the kernel from the .zip file you just downloaded? Step 5 above? If not, you failed."
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Wheeljack2k:
So I upgraded my Mango from 20150830 to 20151206 which wasn't too straightforward since I borked up the previous installation by 1. forgetting to use the format_system.zip when I came from KitKat and 2. trying to integrate upgraded google apps into /system using Link2SD. Dirty flash didn't work - said not enough free space on /system -, so I used the format_system.zip during this update and installed the rom + gapps afterwards (didn't wipe data and cache though). To my surprise the system was working with all my installed apps and settings still intact.

Pretty solid rom, you got there :)

My only nitpick, when comparing 12.1 to 11.0, would be the phone's responsiveness during deep sleep. It takes about half an hour for my phone to realize that a known WiFi is nearby, if I don't wake up my phone manually (I'm using a tasker script to set my phone to vibrate, start a timer and send a message to my watch, if I'm near the WiFi of my working place).
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Pixelado:
Finally got this on my mango. Overall the ROM is surprisingly good considering how old our phones are. The only showstopper I've found so far is broken bluetooth file transfers.

Among the things that bother me but I can live with are:

- the sf limited alpha flag makes popups and fade-in/out transitions look weird. It doesn't look as bad as it did on Kitkat, mostly because this rom uses much less popup animations.

- enabling the development options and turning them back off literally destroys the ux because "high end graphics" gets disabled as well. Yeah, sure, I can always leave dev options on, but that triggers my OCD so bad hahaha. If anyone knows a workaround please fill me in.

- the camera app feels... more dumbed down than ever. Almost no settings compared to Kitkat

Aside from that, the typical stuff (such as bad battery life, as usual with modern roms on old phones) and the fact that I'm running it with a class 4 SD card (some might say I like suffering), the rom is pure awesome.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] JimmyRay:
Yes, I have the same issue, and already posted in Mardon's GApps thread before coming here to check the situation.

I flashed the 20151206 build on my Ray a couple of days ago (upgrading from 20150606), followed by Mardon's latest Mini-GApps package.

The overall performance feels very good, and the installation procedure went without a hitch. Everything works great, except calendar syncing - that's the only thing I'm missing.

Anyway, many thanks once again to mike and all who contribute to LX development for keeping these classic legacy devices alive!

Cheers!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] esemef:
I don't have that either, but in calendar settings the google account is set to sync. I haven't created any events since upgrading but all the old ones are there.

What exactly is your problem because "google calendar does not sincronize" isn't very descriptive.

I switched to f2fs and either this or the new build seems to be more responsive, however the last build was quick to start with too so time will tell. I found using adb to partition the card much easier than using the minitool partition wizard, which always ended up creating the partitions in slightly different places than I told it to. It's a pity you have to flash cm11 boot.img as cm12 doesn't have parted built in, but it was still far easier. The wiki is a bit vague and in some cases wrong though.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] atanganaa:
the issue is the following (i don't speak english.. sorry) when you go to settings --> account --> google --> you got a lot of options to sincronize: "web browser", "contacts", "etc", but the "calendar" option it's not available to sync
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Mardon:
No such problem with gapps, calendar is listed under accounts and syncs fine.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Pixelado:
Hello there, just wanted to report a couple of soft reboots, most possibly related to the wifi hotspot feature. Also had one while opening the physical keyb while using whatsapp. Anyways, there goes a log.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/czvrtwbnsil8ybr/bugreport_121015.zip?dl=1

CM12.1, dec 6 build, no mods, all stock.

EDIT: I seem to be getting high mobile radio active (aka MRA) times. Is it a long standing bug or am I just being paranoid? I thought they sent a patch for cm12 regarding high MRAs
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] JimmyRay:
Mardon, was your screenshot taken using 'Standard' or 'Mini' GApps package?

Unfortunately the sync option is missing on my Ray.

I am using the Mini-GApps package.

Is it worth trying to reflash just the Mini-GApps package?

Everything is working fine...just calendar syncing.

Cheers,

James

Can you check your second partition ? Is it formatted as ext4 or ext3 ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Mardon:
I use std. Package but calendar sync is in all packages same apk. So shouldnt matter if mini or std.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] esemef:
I used the mini gapps and although I thought yesterday that calendar was missing in the google sync settings, I can see it there now. So either I missed it or something has made it appear now, the calendar was synced yesterday though and showed up in the calendar apps account settings.

I vaguely remember that I had a problem with calendar syncing not working at all when I did a fresh install of the last cm12.1 build, but I cannot remember how I fixed it. I tried various things like deleting the account and adding it again & I probably reinstalled gapps too. I did a fresh install of this cm12.1 as well and it seems to be ok, but this time I used f2fs created using cm11 + adb instead of ext4 created using minitool partition wizard (well I told it to use ext4 but it seems to always report it as ext3).

Oh hai, just noticed a bug while using whatsapp: audio doesn't get routed through the earpiece when the phone is moved close to one's ear
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] amishxda:
Thats probably not a bug. Whatsapp audio stop playing when phone is moved closed to ear. (or finger is put over proximity sensor)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Pixelado:
Wrong. When whatsapp detects feedback fron the proximity sensor, it asumes you put your phone next to your ear, so it stops playing through the loudspeaker, darkens the screen (but doesnt lock, which is silly IMO) and resumes audio playback through the ear piece (which sounds much better). It stops playing audio as soon as you move the phone away from your face.

This is why people think whatsapp stops playing audio when passing a finger over the proximity sensor. They should put some sort of tolerance threshold IMO.

Back to the issue at hand: on cm12.1 build from dec 6, whatsapp does pause audio play and does darken the screen, but resumes playing audio thorugh the loudspeaker, not though the ear piece. This is not the intended beheavior.

Fun fact: on lx cm11, playing whatsapp audio through the ear piece sometimes caused all audio to play from the ear piece later on (including music and videos)

EDIT: now that I think of it, music volume on cm12 seems lower than cm11 or older roms. To me, it seems the phone is trying to pump too much bass through that tiny loudspeaker of ours (at least on mango)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Mardon:
Maybe because audiofx is default enabled on cm12.1 adjust afx settings ;)

Revert back to original partitioning

Hi, I partitioned the phone with the formatting tool, using a 32GB class 10 SD card some time ago. It worked fine for a while but then began to give trouble. Now the phone barely manages to boot past the legacy xperia logo, and when it does it fails to stay on, especially if I try to access anything. The screen becomes dark in waves of black, and then it reboots. I do believe the SD card in no longer functional and is the cause of the problems. My question is: How can I undo this new partition and revert to a previous version of android. (Note: I am unable to turn USB debugging on in the phone's current state)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] yurasik_687:
Flash stock or flash CM11 kernel, do format with the new kernel, then flash new CM11 Rom (you'll need a new sd card for files of new ROM before flashing).
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dreadknot:
I tried this but for some reason when I reboot after the whole process it returns to the legacy xperia kernel and with the new sd card it can't load further.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] yurasik_687:
Did you flash new kernel with flashtool?

Did you format system\data\cache from recovery on new kernel?

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Pixelado:
The ! on your signal icons means you're not connected to the internet (either because you have mobile data disabled or because google services cant reach google servers using your current data/wifi network). This is the intended beheavior on lollipop, google's way to make you want to stay connected IMO haha.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] JimmyRay:
Okay, thank you for your reply Mardon.

I just tried reflashing the GApps-mini package (11th December) in recovery, but Calendar sync is still missing.

I would be grateful if you could also try a clean LX install using the GApps mini package on one of your devices, just in case.

Thanks!

---------- Post added at 01:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 AM ----------

Thank you for your reply esemef.

May I ask, did you flash the LX rom and gapps package back to back, or did you reboot once after installing/setting up the rom, then go back to recovery to flash the gapps?

To be honest, I always do full wipe, then flash the rom and gapps packages at the same time (i.e. without a reboot in between), and have never had any issues. This is the first time Calendar sync has not worked straight away, so I'm wondering what the cause might be. I think I only used f2fs once (when this functionality first became available), but have used ext4 (or ext3?) ever since. I'm not changing anything, just updating to the latest LX rom and gapps, so it's strange that Calendar syncing should no longer work as it used to.

Thanks!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] vikusz:
Try deleting CalendarProvider.apk from the GApps package (it rewrites the stock CM calendarprovider). Flash ROM, flash modified gapps and see if calendar sync works. This is how I use it and everything is working here.

edit: I use aCalendar and no other calendar apps installed (neither stock CM nor google calendar).
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Mardon:
There is only cm default CalendarProvider.apk my gapps packages doesnt replace it!

So this is a useless tip if he uses my gapps.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] vikusz:
There is a CalendarProvider.apk file in your GApps package and it is different from the CalendarProvider.apk in the CM11 zip. So how come it doesn't get overwritten?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Mardon:
Do we talk about cm12.1 gapps? Its not in cm12.1 gapps.

This thread is for cm12.1 not for cm11...

So i assumed we are talking about cm12.1.

Edit:

just checked cm11 gapps now.

You are right in mini packages i accidentially included calendarprovider.apk. will update cm11 gapps packages later today and also remove the accidentially added apk.

Sorry for the inconvenience

Done

Sorry, I didn't realize the CM12 GApps package doesn't include the CalendarProvider.apk. In light of this you were right that my advice is irrelevant.

Today I had almost the same issue. I noticed it by accident. I've two Arc S: The first has a fresh install with the CM 12.1 nightly 20151205 + HDPI_miniGapps-5.1.1-20151211, the second is an old nightly (20150831) updated to the December one with an older miniGapps package. The fresh installed has the calendar sync option, the old one not - but it has the Google Fit sync option. Strange, but not a problem. I really don't know what is the reason for it, but I'll do a fresh install on the second one, so it doesn't matter.

fastboot driver for win 10

migrating my system from transcend card (uhs-I 300x) to samsung evo uhs-I as sugested in this forum, both 16gb. I clone my transcend card using minitool partition wizard's copy disk, but using samsung evo card make my phone very slow and laggy. maybe because the clone process, so now i want to try clean instal using the samsung card.

how to install fastboot driver for xperia mini in windows 10? i've upgradded my notebook from 7 to 10 and now my device unrecognised by flashtool.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Faustop:
Different models of cards may have different underlying block structure (e.g. different sizes of the erase blocks) requiring different partition alignment, even if they are both 16GB. So it may be better to re-partition the Samsung Evo card taking into account its parameters. At the end of the following page from the wiki there are some links to guides on partition alignment:

https://github.com/LegacyXperia/Wiki/wiki/Installing-Lollipop
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] esemef:
I couldn't get the mini tool partition wizard to put the partitions where I wanted them, it wouldn't let me use the last few blocks. It also seemed to adjust the values I entered, so I had to keep trying different values until they were at least aligned (even though the last 16mb was unused).

I ended up flashing cm11 and partitioning using adb before reflashing cm12.1.

There is also the chance the trancend is faster, I have a brand new orange evo card to compare against the red evo+ card. The orange evo card is very cheap, so I'm not holding out much hope it's quicker.

But some random people on the internet says it is, so it must be ;)

I bought a red evo+ card because that link is very vague on how to calculate the block size and some of the values appear wrong as the start/end/size don't add up.

It feels like how to create the partition correctly is a carefully guarded secret, or people recommending cards have a different idea on how much lag is acceptable. I definitely have less lag with f2fs than ext4, although I never figured out how to specify the raid parameters (mini wizard doesn't let you do this). I have no idea whether you can tune ext4 to work better than f2fs, but like all the guides on the wiki for partitioning they are all missing various pieces and pulling them all together is beyond me at the moment. I assume everyone else is stumbling through them and either dropping back to cm11 or putting up with cm12.1

Hopefully cm13 will resolve some of the issues.
