I did same. (ro.build.selinux=0)

It did not freeze for me.

But when running command "getenforce" it still shows "Permissive"

Anyway not a big deal.

May be developers (@mikeioannina) can "disable" SELinux completely for next release and try test if it makes things faster?

Thank you for your explanation. I thought sepolicy rules has been set up for AOSP and would be provided as part of AOSP...

Can't Update Cm 12.1 Live with walkman

Hi sorry to bother

So I was trying to update my LWW from 20151206 build to the 20160216 build.

I updated it by using a guide from youtube.

It went perfectly the first time when I first change my rom to CM 12.1.

But now, every time i tried to update it to a newer build, it keeps on failing to update, and in the recovery mode there is an android laying around with a big red X on his torso saying that the update has failed

And because the failed update, my LWW bluetooth isn't working at all. But before I tried to update it, the bt was fine...

Can anybody help on what i did wrong? Or maybe help me out for the bt problem, because I often use it in my car lol

Thanks before
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] TomTomcrafter001:
Did you flash the new kernel from the new build? Always do that for every build. You can find it in the zip as boot.img. flash it with fastboot. This is explained in the wiki under installing lollipop. You do not have to wipe data.

Try to flash the system-formattting tool. This doesn't delete userdata but can help. This is in lx's basketbuild in misc. Just flash it, and then the update.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DumDumBumBum:
Yeah I already flash the new kernel using fastboot. But it's still not working..

Don't know why...

Ok will try flashing the system-formatting zip... Thanks

Hello. I am using WT19i/coconut/LWW running cm12.1 lastest build. I am experiencing Bluetooth problems here. It causes my phone to freeze every time I tried to send a file. Receiving files and connecting to a device has no problems. Is this a problem with my phone or there is a bug with bluetooth?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] esemef:
I have tried random things like system-formatting, gapps then cm (which also fails). I normally then remember that the last time I flashed ok the phone was fully charged and on power. When I do that it seems to go through ok, although it may just be random.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] bykidi:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] esemef:
I'm already using a primary f2fs partition, I stopped using ext4 as it was too laggy. I don't see how a logical partition could cause an intermittent error though.

The main thing that appears to cause my 'bad disk' error is running on battery power. I'm already running the latest cm12.1, but the next time I update I'll make sure its on power the first time.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] filjusz:
F2FS is much better than EXT4 ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] TomTomcrafter001:
How did you format to f2fs?

Minitool partition wizard doesn't offer f2fs.

Did you left the sdcard unpartitioned? Or did you flash the f2fs formatter?

If mike manage to fix Bluetooth this month, we get MM officially this month.

I hope that get fixed soon. Otherwise I have to use my wired ear buds or use the HTC Sensation XE for Bluetooth music.

Although the HTC is more powerful, I prefer my ST18i with alpha Marshmallow.

I cannot say it enough:

Thank you Mike for that great Rom. ?

- Followed each step perfectly upto " Wipe SD card"

- But problem started in "" Flash the images using sideload "":crying::crying:

- Yes I followed,

- reboot again to recovery (Note: the "reboot recovery" option does not work. Do a normal reboot and press the recovery key instead)

- connect USB to PC

- Select Apply update > Apply from ADB

- Thats it.... My phone simply showing just two options like this > Apply from ADB

> cancel ABD

- I am stucked here....:confused: Dunno whats next.

- Actually I cant understand this step - 4. Sideload LX13 rom (takes 10 minutes). Example:

adb sideload cm-13.0-20160224-UNOFFICIAL-LegacyXperia-urushi.zip

My hallon killed my sd card! Suddenly reboots always!

I tried try format my card, but after the format all data were back and the partition as well!

I couldn't delete any data!

It was a Sandisk Extreme 32GB.

Is that's ever happened to anyone?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] vikusz:
This has happened to me several times. Once the SD card's firmware detects too high cell wear, it goes into read-only mode so you don't lose data. You'll have to get a new SD card.

Recovery OTA Update Package

I've been trying to install a package through recovery but I always get an error message:

My device is smultron. Normally I didn't get that error in CM11's CWM recovery. Should I use a different signer tool? If so, then what tool?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Falk2:
Hi,

on my Ray LegacyXperia cm12.1 runs pretty fast. So this is very fine!

Thank you guys. You have done a really great job!

But I still have an open issue:

LegacyXperia custom recovery does not seem to support Nandroid at all: there is no 'backup and restore' option of the recovery included in the Kernel. Why not? (isn't this option available at CM11/13 kernel recovery?...)

And where can I get and flash a sys recovery WITH this feature then?

Thank you very much for your advices!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] puszekkk:
I cant install this on my mango. I enter the recovery mode, try to install and when Installing update appears phone reboots :(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Wolfcity:
It should be part of every custom recovery.

Maybe extract the recovery out of another cm based ROM or try to flash a cwm.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Falk2:
So you run LegacyXperia cm12.1 on a Ray and this recovery actually supports backup/restore??...

Sure?

Would be magic then that I have not. This one expresses itself to be a 'Cyanogen Recovery'. No word about cwm or version no.

It should have a reason why JUST this recovery was shipped with this kernel and cm version, shouldn't it?

Ähhh, and I don't think that I can take just any cwm recovery for my mobile Ray for reflashing!?

The one shipped with this kernel is a special one, for any reason!...

Would you please inform me which criteria I have to care for when choosing a recovery?

I suppose the mobile model, the distribution (here cm), the Android version, stock or custom and ??...

(maybe s.o. can even describe the REASONS WHY those criteria are important!?... E.g. I have read that the partitioning of system and data of this version (XperiaLegacy cm12.1) is different than usual...)

I couldn't find a separate recovery version from LegacyXperia for my Ray...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Wolfcity:
Sry, messed a few things up, it's long ago that I used this device and any other custom recovery than twrp. It was not my intention to make things more unclear for you. I ran legacy Xperia on a smultron device (not Ray's) and I thought I was using the recovery it was shipped with.

That's not the case, I'm on a cwm recovery and surely you can't use any recovery for your device.

I extracted the cwm out of a ROM for my smultron. As I said it's a long time ago and I'm sry if I confused you by messing up things I wasn't sure about. Maybe you can find a cwm for your device by checking matching ROMs/kernels for your device.

See attached screenshots what combination of ROM/kernel/recovery I'm using atm.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Falk2:
Okay, now I understand better...

Are you more happy with Carbon than with LegacyXperia?... Differences?...

May I also ask you why you preferred to use your Xperia Mini against your Ray? Cause camera (resolution and sensitivity), accu/endurance, display resolution, etc. of the Ray are just better!... Just the smaller size?... ;)

Hope that there will be s.o. else answering my early question and how I can select an alternative recovery.

Thank you guys for this help.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Falk2:
Hello Wolfcity,

I would appreciate it to hear again from you considering my response. Would you do me that favour please?...

Best wishes to you
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Wolfcity:
I used both devices (ray and mini/smultron) as test devices, my main phone is a Moto G 2014 and I own a Nexus 7 too.

That´s why I was a bit confused in my first post about recoveries for Sony devices.

I like the Mini because it´s that small and handy ( I don´t own the Ray anymore) and I flashed a lot of ROM´s on it until KK like Legacy Xperia CM 11.0, Beanstalk Legacy,CrDroid and Carbon.

CrDroid and Carbon were the most stable ones for me also the features fit my needs, I don´t know if this ROM´s are available for the Ray too but I think Carbon and CrDroid should be.

I also flashed a different kernel as you can see on the screenshot in my previous post, found on XDA too.

If I remember things correctly I flashed the boot.img of some ROM with flashtool (I always used flashtool for ROM´s and kernels) to get CWM but I don´t know what ROM that was.

But you can do the whole thing with X-Parts easily too:

http://www.teamandroid.com/2012/09/22/install-clockworkmod-recovery-xperia-ray-st18i-st18a-x-parts-cwm/

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=45068100#post45068100

You should be able to do nandroid backups and restores then.

I hope I could help you a bit, as I said it´s been a long time ago that I did anything with these devices.

First of all, CM12 is not supported anymore. Pick either CM11 or CM13.

Also, you don't need to root your phone to install CM.

Trebouchet crashes when too many apps are installed

Hello,

meanwhile I tried CM13 and CM14 with LX kernel on my Ray/Urushi. But unfortunately both of them are VERY unstable (and also quite slow - you can notice very much that Lollipop was the last version that was made for 512 MB RAM).

They both crashed too often especially when you changed the orientation/rotation or used the camera.

This experience should have made everybody, I assume.

So I was forced to decrease the version.

Now CM12.1 is fine here! No (big) problem with stability.

But the following experience I made with any version (I wonder why nobody wrote about that):

The more apps I installed the longer I had to wait for the completion. The same with deinstallations! VERY strange.

I guess, also this experience should have made everybody cause it appeared very reliable at any CM version!

However, I thought I could live with that.

But now, after I installed about 15 own apps Trebouchet always crashed directly after I installed the 16th app. If I uninstall it Trebouchet is stable again.

Note: This happens with ANY additional app I install. So it is not caused by the app itself!

2nd note: I assume that this would have happened at CM13 and CM14 as well but I didn't install so many apps there caused by the mentioned unstability.

So please help me and let me know...

1) why the installation/deinstallation time systematically increases (up to 10 minutes and more) with the increasing number of installed apps?

2) why there is a limited number of apps I am allowed to install? (there is still enough space on my 6 GB ext3 F2FS partition left!)

3) how I can solve both problems but especially avoid the launcher crash?

Note: I tried another launcher but as soon as I call the app overview it crashes as well.

Thank you so much for your help!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Falk2:
One more thing...

If there is anybody who can give me a tip which navigator app (offline or online) works fine with Lollipop and a Ray that would be perfect.

The current GoogleMaps version needs too much RAM and doesn't work properly, unfortunately.

Maybe I should take an older GM version?...

And other navigation apps? Like e.g. Navmii or OSMand?

I don't wanne try everything now and hope there is s.o. who is happy with one navigator whichever it is.

Thank you very much again!!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] trax7:
To this day, I don't know a GPS app that would take less RAM than GMaps and be that good. You can try using the browser version maps.google.com tho :)

If not, well you're stuck with GMaps.

How healthy is your SD card, what type/brand is it? Are you sure its not the issue here or maybe smth between the phone and the card, like the driver? Some cards just don't play nice for whatever reason :/

Some slowdowns are to be expected since the system writes important data on the SD and also they don't have very good random read/write performance and that's important...

Try reformatting it with ext4 plus -noatime.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Falk2:
Hello Trax7,

thank you VERY much for your feedback.

Please let me know about your experiences:

1) Is the stability experience I made with CM13 and CM14 equal to what is well known?

Cause I wonder more and more as I cannot read anything about those unstabilities in the community. Instead it is said: "LX 12 is stable, but it is made obsolete by LX 13 (which is more like LX 12 reloaded)."

So this is ABSOLUTELY NOT my experience !!!

2) Is the experience/problems I made with the installation time and app installation limitation of CM12 (to CM14) normal or am I for all three versions the only one again? (which I could hardly believe as there should be s.th. specific with my Ray hardware which again I couldn't believe)

3) How can those app installation limitations have s.th. to do with the type of the SD card? I cannot see any relation between those two. Cause what you analyse can only have s.th. to do with time/performance delays of max. 200% but NOT with time delays of 10 minutes and more AND also not with fixed limitations and launcher crashes!

So I assume that the crashes should be independent from the SD card (which is a fast one by the way (Lexar High-Performance microSDHC 633x 32GB UHS-I/U1 )), shouldn't it?

4) Can the ext format have s.th. to do with my problem? Cause the system CM12 is stable, as I said. Instead I suffer under the installation and deinstallation problems at CM12 and higher (so also with no ext partition) related to delays and limits. But as I said there is still 3,5 GB of free space left on it. So the same to the launcher crash.

I even would accept the tremendous delays at install/deinstall cause this happens only once.

But of course we should find out why Trebouchet is crashing! And why nobody else seems to have this problem (is this really so??) although it seems that there is not ANY mistake on my side.

But however, I made those experiences also at CM13 and CM14 and this should happen to everybody, not only me.

But why doesn't anybody complain it then?...

Maybe you can comment between my lines at points 1 to 4 to better understand your arguments.

Thank you very much.

Best wishes to you.
