[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mickybart:
Selinux rules are the same between Acro S and Xperia S but if you have a doubt it is possible to check dmesg output :

dmesg | grep avc

You should not have a lot of denied but by default you will have some ones for Bootanimation.

If you rebooted your device twice, that means that your issue is not due to selinux because selinux is enforced at every reboot if you disable it.

It seems that your issue was due to something flashed. If you want to be sure, you can backup the ROM, flash the ROM + Opengapps and nothing more to check that everything is going well. After that you can try dirty flash again and if you have an issue, try to isolate the problem (take a look on logcat).

But it is not possible for me to provide you the reason of this issue and why you don't have it again because there is too many software configuration possible (Xposed, supersu, all modules...) that can change the ROM behaviour.

Hi Mr mickybart

I have installed last release today

I found thiese bugs:

1- when I am useing the radio and at the same time by touch the home key I want to do another job for example work with file manager the radio program goes to halt mode and do not work I should restart the phone only for solve

2- some times the # icon shows in status without any reason ( do this mean I use root function)?

3- pickup sensor work well but how can I find that significant sensor is working and has any effect in battery drain of phone?

4- some times I have antena icon from operator but a massage will display that sim card has not been detected and you should restart phone ,why ?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mickybart:
1- Can you provide a logcat please (it's working fine on Xperia S)

2- if # is displayed this is for a real reason and because an application/service is using a root shell. Check your "root" applications and you will find which one causing that quickly.

3- take a look in Xperia S thread. Everything is explained to check/calibrate etc the sensor. Pickup and significant sensors use the same bma250 interruptions so there is no significant power impact to use it if you already use pickup sensor.

4- You should have NO signal if simcard is not detected (try to do a call, that should fail). If this is not the case, take a logcat -b radio of the issue

Thanks
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] h15.niazmand:
this is the logfile that you want with screen shot.

is there any command to find and copy better file that is created by phone to send for you?

when i want to enter logcat command in shell after 5 second phone can not take screen shot and after 20 second phone restart , during problem in radio i have no sound in earphone and can not close the program by phone ,only way is restart the phone to go in normal mode.

another question : i saw that you change supersu in this version , by reading the xperia s forum i saw that you told them to flash rom two times ,what is the correct way to do a clean flash for this version in acro s ?

i flashed this rom as follow :

wipe cash, devlic cash,data,internal storage

then install rom,install micro version of gapps and finally wipe cash and devlic cash

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mickybart:
Thanks.

The double flash (with a reboot in the middle) is just for the more lazy of us.

You have the complete procedure already mentioned to migrate to b12 in the good way with custom gapps setup. Someone else posted just after my post (Xperia S thread) a procedure for those which are not using already a gapps-config.txt to tune their Gapps installation.

The flashing procedure was updated with detail about gapps flashing too. (see link in OP of Xperia S thread)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Crachketo:
Do you plan to launch android 7?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mickybart:
Yes I plan to work on nAOSP 7.0 when Android 7 will be released (for Xperia S in first place but I should be able to keep Acro S in sync)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] vsergeyev:
I installed b12.

Problem is (I don't know on which verison it's appeared? I work on b12) with charging. When I sweep to wake up phone in cradle or connected to usb charger, charging indicator switched off, phone stop charging and began to drain battery.

really I should reconnect charger after wake up using sweep (or may be double tap).

Another problem - FM radio work, but I don't hear anything , I hear it only on first test version. Unfortunatly I didn't hear from anybody about this problem, Does it exist only om my phone? I hear FM radio sometimes on b07 only, but I didn't hear it on upper versions. ( Evening Update - Suddenly I check FM Radio again - it works just now, but I'm afraid that it will stop as usual :)? I don't know the reasons why it work/doesn't work. I tryed to go out from FM Radio, it's appeared as background, but without any sound, then phone goes to reboot after several minutes. It doesn't became working after reloading - I didn't hear any sound.

Third problem is with term manager config, I suppose that thresholds should be higher then current settings, for example I have ASUS TF700 and it processor works nicely on 60-70C temperatures. I see that Acro S usually works in active state (hearing music) on 52-56C and so it lowers proc freq to 1536, sometimes it goes to switched off . This problem also existed on previous versions. Unfortunatly I don't know which levels are acceptable and which levels were used on stock ROM to conrol overheating.

Whole impression from b12 and NAOSP - very very good work.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] h15.niazmand:
Hi Mr mickybart

I want to explain something about FM radio problem that possible to help you to solve it

If I turn on or off radio by its red icon in normal mode there is no problem and the sound and station search work normal ,another application such as MX player or music folder player ( video and audio app) work normal but when I want to send the FM radio to work in background and at the same time work with another program the phone goes to busy mode and the speed of phone decrease suddenly ,at that time no one of video and audio app can not run and FM radio app sometimes run without voice ,in this condition battery drain is more than normal and some times phone restart suddenly.

I think voice driver of FM radio does not run completely after sending it to work in background

Or the same problem.

May I take a better or complete trace for this condition by shell that make and record log file to send for you?

I hope that this explanation could help you to solve this bug soon

Thanks

Hi! I'm using this rom for about 2 weeks now and it's really awesome, but I'm facing one issue.

My phone shutdown frequently when using the camera, especially the mobile data.

Can I solve this issue by underclocking? If so, how-to? HAHA

EDIT: I restored back to stock and the problem still exist, so it's just really my phone. Sorry!

Hi Mr mickybart

If it is possible for you please pay more attention to our phone (acro s)

Radio problem most of the time make me to reboot phone .

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] vsergeyev:
Hi all,

I made some experiments with my phone and I've discovered that problem with My FMRadio appear in following cases

1) If I use nano GAPPS - in this case FM Radio is working until I select Home or Back . After that phone began to lag and sometimes goes to reboot. After reboot I don't hear any sound from FM Radio.

2)if I use micro GAPPS and Google Start Launcher. In this case I see the same behavior but FM Radio start working as usual after reboot - I began to hear sound after any reboot.

Now I install ROM + micro GAPPS . When I select Launcher3 as Launcher , after reboot I see that FM Radio works as it should. It works now always. I think it's a workaround for discovered incompatibility.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Apollon.Theos:
Now my AcroS with b12 (thanks a lot to vsergeev)

Any "English" language make keyboard "only English", without possibility add other layout.

"Russian" language with dual-layout keyboard, and I can't add third layout to keyboard.

Stock ROM has possibility to use keyboard with multiple layouts.

hello , just upgraded my phone from b9 to b12 , and now android doesnt wanna boot , tried goign back to b9 but that didnt work too(i get a wall of red text ,mostly with TWRP saying that it cant acces the dalvik cache partition) .. can somebody please help?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] vsergeyev:
some days I thought that I found workaround for FMRadio' problem - wneh it hadn't worked I changed Launcher (set Launcher3) and reload,

FMRadio became to work in all cases - including background,

but yesterday after some security setting that I made, I discovered that FMRadio appl. stopped to work in all situations -

I didn't hear anything even if I started it after reloading...

Today I tried to made some experiments with advanced configs of GAPPS,

first I again check FMRadio, it didn't work completely - after reload I tried to start FMRadio - I didn't hear anything,

I tried to change Launchers - and reloadings - without success,

secondly, I made TWRP backup (all without cache),

then I made full clear install of b12 and new GAPPS with my own gapps-config-hikari.txt file,

but It hasn't worked (during initial setup I saw Google Play errors, I decided to make full restore from last backup and made clear Dalvik/cache.

After reloading I discovered that FMRadio become to work normally - it work in background (I can touch back or home or power button)

I tried to use another application with sound - MX player and PCRadio, then I again check FMRadio - it work normally now.

So now I think, that normal state of FMRadio can be restored by Dalvik/cache clearing.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mickybart:
I understand that you want me to take more attention on Acro S phone but I have not a lot of time to do it !

I'm mainly focused on Xperia S (the only device that I have).

Android 7 code source will be available really soon too and I will focus on it.

So I will try my best to check thermal protection (because some of you seems to have issue with it. you can try to disable thermanager service for test purpose and at your own risk. - command: stop thermanager; ps | grep therm).

For FMRadio, I read the issue and workaround reported. I need to take some time to work on that but this will not be done soon...

In fact I'm near to stop to try to support Acro S device... As already explained I released this ROM to help Acro S users to have Android 6 and to show that it was possible to run it on Acro S (done after few private messages of Acro S users). Unfortunately, no devs seems interesting to support Acro S (Have you tried to check with BPaul as discussed in PM ?) and on my side I have NOT the device to really do it in GOOD condition (specially because issues reported are NOT present on Xperia S, and so are only on Acro S !).
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] h15.niazmand:
Hi Mr Mickybart

Thanks for every thing that you have done for acro s users till now .

Your last release is enough for daily use and many people can use this old device again .

Thanks and have a good times

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] vsergeyev:
Hi all,

1. About FMRadio. I think this problem is appeared when something bad kept in cache after some application's crashes. Maybe we should to watch out using wiping Dalvick/Cache in TWRP when problem is appeared..

Another variant - we can try to clear cache for every application that you have and then try to check FMRadio after every application's clearing - to find which application can affect sound of FMRadio. We all have different application's sets, so problem is appeared only for some users.

2. About OTG - as I understang @Mickybart will try to check your suggestion about 5V, I have a new OTG cable and now I'm interesting in this feature and I can make some experiments by @Mickybart request.

3. @Mickybart near to stop but he didn't stop for a while. It's a good news. Maybe we will see nougat for Acro S from him - who knows? We will hope for that.

4. Termmanager - I see that when FMRadio is working as it should( in background , etc,), my phone temperature goes down, and now usually it near 33 and sometimes not more 53. Battery discharge also goes down. Maybe temperature is related to sound (FMRadio) problem.

5. May be we should look for good more fresh replacement for our phones with good support on XDA by devs ( maybe by @Mickybart).? Or we should try to check another devices for redundancy?

Best regards,

Valery

Thanks for the response! I tried going back to 0.35 to the version where safety net is not yet introduced but the problem is pokemon go will not let you play unless you update to latest version.

So my dream "to become the very best that no one ever was" will now die

I dont know why, I just got really attached to my almost 5 years old acro s and simply cannot replace it unless it blows up. My acro s, droped at chest level multiple times, used and abused but still alive and kicking. . bow

Android 7

Is there someone who want to build Acro S ROM, test it and push it to everyone ?

If yes, I can update the Acro S device tree to permit you to build Android 7.0 on Acro S. (It is working fine on Xperia S with 7.0 b05. I kept in sync kernel update for hikari).

I will not describe how to build a ROM (so you need to learn it) but I will be there to help a bit and source on my github permit to build the ROM with minimal effort (everything is available and tested)

So this is up to one of you to take the lead.

Let me know and I will do the effort to port commits of 7.0 to Acro S device tree. If nobody want to do it I will not release any ROM as already discussed (not enough time and not easy without the device)

FYI: Everything is working on Xperia S so no reason to have some issues for Acro S (except maybe the FMradio and OTG as now for Acro S)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hitman-xda:
Great idea! I'm interested in these stuff. But let me tell you I've never done this thing yet and I don't even know from where to start. But the good thing is, I'm interested.

I'm a computer science engineering student. I've basic knowledge about languages but I've never done anything by my own. I would like to do this time plus I've an Acro S and I could risk it. I just need someone to guide me. (optional: If you could just give me some important links that I'll should start from or learn that will be great). Also I don't know what tools to use, I've some experience with Android studio (tried to make an app, was succeeded)

As I have to start from first, it'll take some time for me to build a ROM that's boots and works well. If I learned well enough, I'll even provide updates and experiment myself by adding new features into it.

Also My exams start on these 18th to 1st of Dec, so I can't do it in this month, I'll be busy studying. But I'll do it. Let me know what you think.

PS: I can't see Acro S dying.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mickybart:
Please to find information about how to build the ROM

Google support only ubuntu environment (but on my side I'm using archlinux).

http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html

You need to download the command 'repo'

http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html

After that you have instruction to download source, and compile the ROM on the readme of my android_manifest (this is not the same instructions between 6.0 and 7.x branches).

https://github.com/mickybart/android_manifest

So you should try to compile nAOSP 6.0 for Acro S to test everything and to be in a ROM that is known to work but you can jump directly to 7.0 if you want (but the device tree is not ready for Acro S).

You need to read a little bit about source control 'git' (git add, git commit, git push, git pull ...)

Android 6 needs openjdk 7

Android 7 needs openjdk 8

in both case you need python 2 (I'm using python venv as my default python version is 3)

You don't need Android Studio except if you plan to work on source code of AOSP but I will explain you that later if needed.

You can install fastboot on your linux box to easily flash a kernel. (do the same for flashtool to go back to stock if needed)

Install android-tools to have 'adb' (useful to upload content, have a shell on Android etc when your phone is connected by usb).

EDIT: If you are on MacOS, the compilation of the ROM is supported. read instruction on links provided. If you are on Windows, you will need a virtual machine with ubuntu but I don't know if performance are good enough.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hitman-xda:
Thanks. I understood most of the things. The first thing I'm going to do is, setting up my machine. I'll dual boot windows with ubuntu. Virtual box needs 16gig of RAM /swap, I don't think it'll work smooth.

Also after setting up I'll download source, jdk and android-tools. It'll let you know how everything works. I'm even watching videos on YouTube for building ROM for reference. I'll message you if I struck somewhere.

You can start working to device tree anytime. Although I'll need much time to setup all these things. Thanks.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mickybart:
Perfect I will port 7.0 to Acro S device tree and let you know when it is ready.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mickybart:
device, vendor and manifest updated for Acro S.

I have merged commits for 7.0 and 7.1.

7.1 is reported to working fine on Xperia S but with bug on FMradio and maybe an issue with clean flash and gapps.

I will really switch to 7.1 this month after 7.0 update with november security fixes + OMS support.

So as you want for the version (but keep in mind that 7.0 is tested at 100% and is working fine but not yet 7.1)

SuperSU is not supported and is responsible of bootloop. So do not install it for now. I need to update the boot.img to support systemless as SuperSU is not able to patch our boot image when it is flashing.

ROM Updater is not pointing to a valid url so we will have to change it later if you want to keep OTA update/notification for Acro S users. We can see that later.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] h15.niazmand:
hi mr mickybart

i am so happy to see that you want to make a new rom for acro s again,

as a tester for your new rom i am ready to check it in my phone for you to find any bug .

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] hitman-xda:
That's all do I need from you?

I'm about to finish setting-up. Almost everything is downloaded and ready. Maybe I'll start working as soon as possible.

ROM Updater is not an issue right now, I think I just have to replace links from source.

It'll take some time for me to post the links. ROM is yet to be compiled.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] rip222:
I found a solution to the problem when device doesn't recognize headphones.

All you need to do is download the app called SoundAbout, reboot your phone, open the app and choose the "headphones" option in Media Audio menu. That's it. If you again want your music to be played through your speakers choose "Speakers" or "Let app decide".
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Huxyr:
Good evening. In 6.0 I have a problem. After 2-3 weeks of stable operation of the phone ceases to comply with the power button, after a forced reload goes into eternal boot. Reflash several times, the problem persists. What could be the problem?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] runekock:
Difficult to say. You may be able to capture a log with adb logcat from a PC connected by usb. But I can think of two possibilities:

1) you didn't do the reflash right. Maybe you forgot gapps or something. Describe exactly what you did to reflash.

2) there has been reports earlier of file system corruption. Mickybart has tried to fix that in the latest release, but we don't know for sure. If that is your problem, you need to format data - wiping it isn't enough - and remember that formatting deletes internal storage as well.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mickybart:
This is due to an hardware issue on the jack. Some Xperia S users have the same (like me).

If [MENTION=6406816]hitman-xda[/MENTION] is able to compile the 7.0 ROM, you will find an option in Quick settings to handle that so SoundAbout will not be needed. It is possible to backport the feature to 6.0 ROM.

I have mainly patched the kernel to select a manual detection over the automatic one on the jack.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Huxyr:
I do everything exactly as instructed. Maybe there is a difference how to install GAAPS? I tried only PICO and NANO.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] rip222:
I really don't understand how it's a hardware issue, since the port works perfectly when a different software or rom used. IMO, it's a software issue.

P.S. How do I activate that patch so I'm able to select manual detection on the jack?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Signalrunner:
