Is there any way to recover sms backup made from cm12 messeging app to this rom? As this rom is AOSP and doesn t have any cm app, and i ve seen the stock app for sms doesn t have any option for import/export.
[Sony Xperia M] coolboyforeva:
For that ,u can use any 3rd part app from google playstore to backup call log and messages , and restore it on new rom.
[Sony Xperia M] PecanCM:

and about cm13: going to try in coming days.
[Sony Xperia M] kh34d:
Awesome [emoji122]

good thinking about Cm13 and good luck with it[emoji106]
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
Thanks alot pecancm!!
[Sony Xperia M] icoolguy1995:
PecanCM to get doze enabled, is it necessary to enable it from overlay/frameworks?
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
Alpha 2 already come :laugh:, downloading now. is this need full wiped too?
[Sony Xperia M] icoolguy1995:
If you are coming from ALPHA 1 then i don't think that you need a full wipe. Just flash it.
[Sony Xperia M] babyyeobo14:
nice work. looking fORward to CM13 :)
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
Okay thanks for your suggest :),cause i'm lazy to do that thing :D. i will try it and if that error only wipe data is solution.

but have anyone found stable gapps for our marshmallow?:confused:
[Sony Xperia M] XtremeWave:
you mean stock stable gapps? not sure about that but i'm using this one - http://downloadmirror.co/android/JN...=5LtgReCsv37yuTfHTO3YdZbGpXXPp/ziV/UrTIfHUwM=
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
benzo gapps ya? hmm, okay maybe i will try it too.
[Sony Xperia M] XtremeWave:
i'm not having any issues with it. try it.
[Sony Xperia M] FakrudeenAhamed:
Stuck

Hey, I flashed alpha 2 ( from cm12 ) with delta gapps , and it was successful but after booting into system ,it asked me to connect to wifi and after connecting , it showed "Checking Connection " ,"This can take a while ". Its been really long time since it showed like that .

( I tried going back ,pressing forget and reconnecting

and also skipping wifi didn't help )

Any help would be useful :) .
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
that problem from your gapps problem i think, try to change your gapps package that from google play service issue.

here try this SlimGapps https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=41043
[Sony Xperia M] elmkzgirxp:
Open GApps have officially launched their marshmallow builds (experimental) today, but the ROM has to be patched to grant the proper permissions.
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
what patches need it? is that from services.jar? :confused:

but thanks for your information:D
[Sony Xperia M] babyyeobo14:
Any mirror link for alpha 2? MF gives me slow downloading :(

Any help ? :confused:
[Sony Xperia M] Vlad2013_4pda:
its bug from Alpha 1, PecanCM has not had time fix it for now.
[Sony Xperia M] PecanCM:
mic working fine here in call and sound/video recording. mic broken in google now but never faced mic problem with calls/sound/video. are you running stock aosp ? if yes then need logs, will see when i come back to aosp.
[Sony Xperia M] FakrudeenAhamed:

After formating sd card as internal, How to access sd card files in twrp ? It shows just 15mb as sd card with no files. Any workaround how to do this?
[Sony Xperia M] XtremeWave:
after upgrading to alpha 2, gapps is having some real problem with the "Google" app itself. keeps crashing. should I try some other gapps package ?

---------- Post added at 04:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:25 PM ----------

what cm13
[Sony Xperia M] Agu_Ra:
Waiting for TeamWin to enable this functionality. I will let you know in TWRP thread when they'll release this feature (and now there's no commits about it).
[Sony Xperia M] Garv Maggu:
Browser crashes whenever I try to download something from browser. Anyone facing this issue?
[Sony Xperia M] Bonoboo:
Yes, all.

This already was mentioned few times in thread.
[Sony Xperia M] xfr33style:
It's a bug known from Alpha 1, just download a 3rd party browser from Play Store like chrome and the problem it's solved.

Regarding this problem, if now I want to do a clean install from Alpha 1 to Alpha 2, what's the way to go if i had mount from MM the function to mount the SDcard storage as internal storage? I have to do a full backup of SD card and format the card in order to work as a normal card so TWRP can read the memory from it? Or is there any other option?
[Sony Xperia M] Vlad2013_4pda:
I saw somewhere that just need to give permission to access the sd card menu permits
[Sony Xperia M] SunitTalwar:
apps uninstall automatically

do any one else also experience that after some time the app installed on sdcard automatically disappears or gets uninstalled even though data (obb) remains there

till now asphalt 8 thor and a lot more games and apps including microsoft excel word etc have vanished from my app drawer and are not even found in settings apps no trace at all :confused::confused::confused:
[Sony Xperia M] Garv Maggu:
Can somebody give me the the pico gapps for alpha 2?
[Sony Xperia M] RaviKumarMeena:
Yes after moving apps to sdcard and restarting the device some apps gets uninstalled
[Sony Xperia M] Godwin Lewis:
Which gapps package are you using? initially I had the same problem, I then flashed the gapps right after the alpha2 and wiped cache/dalvik.. Now it's working good for me. BTW I'm using xorg gapps. ✌
[Sony Xperia M] Bonoboo:
Note to my old post about force-moving apps to SD when adopted.

Actually, it's possible, even for apps with widgets.

Settings > Apps > select app > Storage > Change > your SD-card
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
try to reinstall your gapps again on recovery, or try to move to SlimGapps ;) that's stable for me

---------- Post added at 04:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:38 AM ----------

use 3rd party browser app, like chrome or anyelse. and try to use 3rd party downloader app to if you find error again when download. now i'm using chrome with loaderdroid and not find any problem with browsing and downloading :)
[Sony Xperia M] Garv Maggu:
Can someone give me right version of gapps for alpha 2? :confused:

I installed 'gapps-mm-fix.zip' and I am getting "Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped.' error and I am not able to open any apps and go to my homescreen. :(

Please give me a link for a stable GApps for alpha 2. :(
[Sony Xperia M] RaviKumarMeena:
Here you go download slimgapps which is stable for almost everyone.
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
This isn't a rom issue, its because the app hasn't been updated to properly support marshmallow permission feature. To stop crashing, go to Settings - Apps, and select the browser, and inside 'Permissions' enable 'Storage', and you're done! :)
[Sony Xperia M] Garv Maggu:
Thanks :)

CyanogenMod 13

auto rotation working in cm13, looks like r26 fixed auto rotation issue.
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
Wow! Is Cm13 stable enough for a Beta release? Or is there any major bugs? As far as I can say, Alpha 2 is good enough for daily use.
[Sony Xperia M] kh34d:
Good progress
[Sony Xperia M] babyyeobo14:
Wooow! Thanks!

CM 13 is coming......

"Winter is coming...." :D:D:D
[Sony Xperia M] icoolguy1995:
For me CM13 is working fine no bugs detected yet!
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
Is Cm13 released? Or are you running your own build?
[Sony Xperia M] icoolguy1995:
No, my own build compiled from PecanCM's source.
[Sony Xperia M] Rajesh_m:
Ok, thanks. Hopefully PecanCM will release it soon :good:
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
cm 13 review with auto rotation fix :D, that's great i will waiting it and i hope that will add music visualizer option too for lockscreen :laugh:
[Sony Xperia M] ardon8292:
[MENTION=4701561]icoolguy1995[/MENTION]

have you enabled doze in your build of cm 13?

if so.... is it working?

and also mtp bug is still there?
[Sony Xperia M] icoolguy1995:
For me MTP was working fine in aosp, and it is working good in CM too.

Can't say about doze now. Just enabled it. Waiting for PecanCM's build.
[Sony Xperia M] ardon8292:
how about 'now on tap' and "ok google" ??

and in alpha2 i find mtp a little buggy, in dev options, after changing it to mtp... it reverts back to charging.... and i have to change it every time via the notification drop down to mtp....but it's no biggie.....oh and one more problem i faced .... when i re-scale my dpi via buildprop, "phone.apk" and "contacts.apk" foreclose.... tried using google dialer but to no avail.... :(
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
Now on tap and ok google i think that bug from gapps package for marshamallow instability problem. cause our microphone is fully working when i test it for making a call and answer it. so know this report as gapps problem not rom bug.

and for mtp , you need to set to mtp mode on dev option before you connect your phone to pc. that will give you option change back to charging mode when first configure. try to set it again untill set to mtp but please to not connect it to pc first. after successfully set to mtp now try to connect it to your pc without change any option on there. and that problem solved.

( you need to set like this in every time you want try mtp on your pc, this feature still not stable but work correctly on transfer data or adb command using this method)

and for dpi i don't know about that, but i think don't try to set or change any value on that cause this rom still alpha. that will make bug or problem if you try it :)
[Sony Xperia M] Bonoboo:
I already wrote this: try any dictaphone app. Mic not works too. So it's ROM bug.

BTW "Now on Tap" works well.
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
So microphone isn't work too? But yes Google now on tap is working correctly

Thanks for your suggest sir
[Sony Xperia M] PecanCM:
using cm13 from 1 day and it's stable like alpha 2 so releasing cm13 for public.

doze is enabled but it's completely untasted. cm13 come with new ril blobs so dual sim users try it. (flash ds patch from this thread)

http://xdaforums.com/xperia-m/orig-development/rom-unofficial-cyanogenmod-13-0-t3245573
[Sony Xperia M] mankokoma:
So fine, everyone will switch to CM13, also I'll try!

Just wanted to mention a strange behavior of bluetooth here. I got a bluetooth-headset (stereo) which connects to the phone without any problem. But the Music is coming from the phone speaker, not the earpieces :-/ ...at least you can switch songs and change volume from the BT-device which is not satisfying at all.... tried with stock- and nui-kernel.

I didn't try to make a call, so I don't know the microphone's behavior. And no, i did not take a log. Immediately went back to last 12.1 nightly for now...

Available Xposed Framework for Marshmallow
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
it's worked correctly on this build MRA58V :)

Thanks for your information sir
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
android 6.0.1 is start rolling for android one device and next is 6.1 for big changelog. is this can be our fix too? :confused:

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Google-starts-rolling-out-Android-6.0.1-Marshmallow-updates-only-to-Android-One-handsets-for-now_id75990
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
Is that any effect if we use Linux kernel v3.4 for marshmallow? If I check from another ROM that running on marshmallow almost all is run with Linux kernel v3.10?
[Sony Xperia M] SunitTalwar:
maybe but xperia sp has kernel v3.4.110 and xperia sp and xperia m both have s4 processor so it wont be difficult to port it to our m but all we can do right now is to wait for [MENTION=4343949]PecanCM[/MENTION] reply

maybe he's to busy right now just wait for him and i believe he will return with a big surprise ;)

anyways there are roms with kernel 3.0x and are running lp5.1 so i guess kernel version doesn't matter most of the features can be back ported like zram swap from 3.10 kernel
[Sony Xperia M] Agu_Ra:
As soon as Linux kernel version is more or less up-to-date, it doesn't affect Android functionality even for latest Android version. As you can see on GotHub, changes in kernel soursces for different Android releases are not so big for our device. Android versions are more about runtime, not kernel, kernel is more hardware-related component, so kernel version is more tied to hardware than to Android system version. And porting new kernel is such a difficult process as for gadgets Linux kernel is not unified, almost all modules/drivers are integrated, not like on PC where we use a bunch of external kernel modules. And, as far as I understand, there are some things that are controlled by BIOS on PC, but on smartphones/tablets/watch we don't have BIOS, so these functions are handled by bootloader and kernel. It also makes porting more difficult. But maybe I'm wrong, I'm not in kernel developement.

P.S.: sorry for my bad English/mistakes/typos, I couldn't get asleep this night, so my brain is barely working.
[Sony Xperia M] Tu Dam:
hi there guys, is there new alpha coming up :D?

Marshmallow won't support write access as like in kitkat :(
[Sony Xperia M] oorvashe:
Hi all,

I am using Android 5.1.1(cm12.1) Today I downloaded the AOSP ROM and tried flashing from Cyanogen recovery. I wiped data/wiped cache.

When I install the ROM I get "Signature verification failed" Installation Aborted error.

Do I need to download ROM again.

Or do I need to fastboot boot.img
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
but i don't have a problem with cm 13 beta 1? and old aosp build (alpha2). okay i will test new build tomorrow if i can, and if i found same bug too may be i will report it and check it why can be happen. but if not try to clean install your rom and use compatible gapps for this rom :)

---------- Post added at 11:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:56 PM ----------

try to change your recovery, cm recovery can't access custom zip or another that not provide to cm build. you must change your recovery mode and try to reflash your ROM again. here look at here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=61626285&postcount=1 maybe that can help you
[Sony Xperia M] nirmal471:
You can't download and save files in external SD card.. [MENTION=5608002]Nicklas Van Dam[/MENTION]
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
i think that problem from marshmallow permission. try to use party browser app or downloader app, and give permission for access file and let's see it's work or not. but is that titanium backup screenshot?:confused:
[Sony Xperia M] nirmal471:
Yes titanium backup ss only
[Sony Xperia M] oorvashe:
Thanks Nicklas :good: . I installed TWRM and successfully flashed the ROM.

Can you suggest gapps for this ROM?:o
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
okay, that's great if your problem solved :) . here i've two recommended gapps

1. Slim Gapps

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53632481&postcount=1

2. Open Gapps

http://opengapps.org/

just choose one from this, but now i'm use slim gapps :)
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
are you sure you can't get write or read access on marshmallow? i'm try it with clean install and it's work correctly here

btw are you sdcard is formatted as internal or only as external storage?
[Sony Xperia M] oorvashe:
I flashed Slim gapps. when I reboot I get "unfortunately setup wizard failed error".

I wiped data, reinstalled gapps, reinstalled ROM.

When I reboot I see only ROM and no gapps. :laugh:
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
hmmmm can you tell me which file did you flash it? :confused:

EDIT : did you flash this file? https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087015871

i'm just want to verify are you flash gapps for 6.0 BETA build and latest version or not.

and did you try this with clean install? i mean full wipe of /data and /system before install ROM and gapps
[Sony Xperia M] Devtaji:
Are both aosp and cm13 going to be maintained?
[Sony Xperia M] oorvashe:
I flashed Slim_zero_gapps.BETA.6.0.build.0.x-20151211.zip.

Yes I did wipe data/cache. I did install ROM and Gapps again. When I reboot, I see ROM working fine without any errors.

How ever I dont see any google apps .:silly:
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
try BETA Package, btw if you want full of gapps experience try OpenGapps with stock or aroma package.

i use slimgapps for minimal feature of gapps :D
[Sony Xperia M] nirmal471:
Used as external storage only and in ur ss, you selected phone memory only, I am talking about taking backup in external SD card, it's reading data but no write access
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
That's actually my external sd card but have to adopted to internal storage by marshmallow feature. And that's is in select folder for backup location in TB. I'm able to create and browse in anywhere, try to make your sdcard as internal storage and try to move internal data to external storage. I think that will be solve it
[Sony Xperia M] nirmal471:
Yeah I know that, but I can't access my SD card in pc after formatted as internal storage, and after formated as internal storage, how can I copy my backup files without pc.... :rolleyes:
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
you still can access your sdcard after formatted as internal storage using mtp feature, change usb feature on your dev option to mtp and connect it to pc and let's see what happen ;)
[Sony Xperia M] joe321:
Dude, which dual sim patch that support for beta 1? Is it same like lollipop patch? or it doesnt support for dual sim yet???
[Sony Xperia M] nirmal471:
Okay I'll try it, internal storage options is very good feature in Marshmallow but if I want to back to lollipop means again I have to format my SD card and again have to copy my backup files, that gives me a headache :confused:
[Sony Xperia M] Nicklas Van Dam:
yes if you want back to lollipop you must format your sdcard using any windows software to FAT32. if not your sdcard won't be read it by android :)
[Sony Xperia M] oorvashe:
I did wipe cache and wipe system and flashed ROM and slim gapps. ROM is working fine and I have google apps. Initially my SD was not detected when I connected my phone to the computer. But now it is detecting SD card and i am able to copy files and move files.

Thanks for detailed instructions. I am able to enjoy MM on XM.:good:

Request

[MENTION=4343949]PecanCM[/MENTION]

One request from my side. Can you please upload your AOSP source or the changes made by you to the AOSP source on to your github ? If this is done, many more developers can bring their projects to Xperia M and make the development more wide.and broad.

I hope you understand and think about this request. Everyone here would be with me hopefully.

Thanks.
