I was flashing a ROMfor the first time from Stock Eclair 2.1
So, as per the Instructions on Simply Honey 5.1 Revolution(JVR GB 2.3.4) Thread,
I flashed the light version ROM using Odin, after doing backup, and cleanup from CWM (so My phone was as from factory, when I was flashing using ODIN.)
The flashing was successful, and the phone rebooted but I saw a lot of pixel tearing during startup until the Android green monster was popping and everything was clear as the language selection menu came up.
I let the phone sit idle for 15mins, after this,, while USB was still plugged in.
I restarted the phone again, and still see the pixel tearing on startup until the Android Green monster pops up.
Iam going to select the language preferences and continue using my phone.
But is there anything which I did wrong, or is there any way I can avoid the pixel tearing during Startup?
Not able to even Receive Calls Now!
Guys please reply!
As I have insufficient no. of posts, therefore I can't post in the thread for Simply honey ROM...
Apart from ,
1.) the screen tearing at startup(as above)
there are other major issues:
2.) If I get a call, the phone would ring for once, and then call will get automatically disconnected with the Network service failing, and a notification would popup that com.android.phone failed or com.android.dialer failed.
3.) Battery is draining at a rapid pace! I know there is fix(/app) to calibrate the battery not showing 100% after full charge. But I observed, I lost around 38% (39 to 1) in around 5hours, with no activity whatsoever, except the alarm(which I think didn't ring when I woke up)
Hey sounds like you ate seeing the rainbow on bootup. You need to Odin the gingerbread bootloaders to clear that up. I believe the simply OP has link out you can search for the actual thread in development section.
As for the calls issue, I haven't had it but there are threads about it in the simply topic. If you search there they have a solution for it....
Hope that helps

You need the Gingerbread Bootloaders!
Please, contact explodingboy70 (my team mate) for further informations!
PS: don't contact me via pm if u have a vibrant, i develop only for I9000 and I9100

thanks for the confirmation. I was not aware u didn't develop for Vibrant as I saw u as one of co-developers of Simply Honey ROM under the Vibrant Thread,but now that u have mentioned I will make sure I don't contact u via pm.
Sent pm to explodingboy70 , waiting for his response now.
Have been almost a week, still haven't got any reply from explodingboy70.
Will flashing bootloader solve my dialer issue, was super busy this week, didn't get time to flash bootloader, so had been without any incoming calls for the past week.
Any pointers for going back to stock 2.1, so that I can start over this process from scratch?
Hi all,
Since I can't post in developer section the only possibility is here. Sorry for being noob
First I must say S2 is very good phone but I have some questions/problems.
I installed Vivaldi 4Seasons 1.1b ROM with siyah GT 2.5.1 kernel.
Must say it is good combination.
Lately I noticed some problems:
- when I long press home button nothing happen (it should open task manager). After power off and on few times this started to work but not after first. Question: is there any setting that I can choose what long press of home button does. Can't find it
- second my video player stopped to work. It is blank when I choose video I made with original camera software. After some time there is picture but if I click play nothing. I installed MX video player and all is ok without problem. What caused vide player to stop working? Also if I restore phone to latest backup which I made 10 days ago video is working? Didn't change Rom and didn't change kernel. I just installed some applications from market(games, some applications...). Any idea what can be wrong?
Thanks for your help and keep up good work with developing great custom roms.

Factory reset if that does not fix install stock rom .Or reinstall your current rom .
jje
there is no way to change the long press home button behaviour in android.
Clear the cache and data for the video player . it will be ok
Thx. Tried all this. In fact I wipe every time I have such kind of trouble. I wiped and cleared cache and it solved for some time but then appeared again. Home button now work as it should but dont know what is with video. Dont care so much since using mx player but still. I forgot to mention that once just started to work without anything and then after few hours again didnt. I know I sound like big noob but I know I didnt change anything in that time (my work is IT support so I would know . Thx and if someone would have same issue and solved please share( it might be some app)

Hi guys,
I'm new here and i've been using the xperia s for about a month now, really like the phone. However i want to try stock android ui etc and decided to flash fxp 133 . I just want to know if there is any issues with the unofficial cyangenmod 9. I know hdmi is not working but its not really a feature i use anyway. What about the rest like camera , nfc and all the wireless connectivity.
Yeah it's pretty much stable there's only one or two things that users have noticed I.e. you can't send sms with over 160 characters and perhaps a few other things but really you can't notice them and they don't impact performance. Bin4ry from FXP explained the SMS bug in the dev thread but yeah go for it, if you have any questions just ask
I recently jumped onto the Xperia S CM9 train and I must say our dev's did a VERY good job with it. The SMS problem is not even really an issue (hit send at 160char) so I wouldn't worry about that really.
I am usually very cautious when flashing beyond a modified stock, as a heap of problems can happen, but honestly, I am not looking back, and any small bugs that may appear later on, I have the confidence in the FXP team that they will sort it out.
If you don't really mind the HDMI and hitting send at 160 characters, I would say go for it..you could always go back, and it will keep getting better and better . Just remember to read through everything carefully and flash responsibly
Enjoy!
ok just want a few simple questions. On CM9 link, which one is correct for XS? I can see coconut, anzu, haida etc etc. And what exactly are the names stand for? It's again same with gapp.
Also anyone actually tried TV out? is it 100% not working?
Thanks.

My Problem Solved after Fully erased my Mobile...:laugh:
Hey guys so like what is so cool about the CM9 for xperia s?? I really want to try it but is it really with it? How unique is it compered to stock rom?

By poor response I mean:
- press power button, phone wakes very, very slowly
- enter phonebook/dialer/messages and the phone moves very, very, very, very slowly ( I can't dial or type or anything)
- phone rings and the screen doesn't go on for a long time, when it does I cannot answer the call for about 10 seconds
Restarting the phone doesn't help, reinstalling the software with SUS or PCC doesn't help. Deleting many apps doesn't help. Removing SD card doesn't help.
Why does it do this? How to solve? This has happened on every version of Sony ICS that I've used. Should I try to disable a core or what? I really don't know. I really have to ask this now because I can't figure it out, and I'm missing important calls etc.
Atleast I can solve phonebook and dialer problem
Use ex dialer
Its simple very fast and can be themed
M telling because m using

the best you an do is switch to custom rom and feel the difference......
Sent from my Xperia Sola using xda app-developers app
Thanks guys. I have only used Go stuff on custom ROMS, I'll try it on stock now.
The thing about custom ROMS to me is...you fix 3 problems and 3 new ones are created. There is a great and popular ROM available at the moment that I tested the last 5 versions of and; 1) it doesn't wake when I press power, 2) reboots often 3) lights don't work etc. but it is very speedy and smooth. Hmm

there's always two side of a coin..... so its same here if you want performance then you have to sacrifice something or other for it.....
by the way which rom are you talking about???????
Sent from my Xperia Sola using xda app-developers app
Two sides of the same coin...indeed, story of my life, I want everything lol
Maybe it would be OK to say the ROM. I've tried many, but most like CM9. There are so many things I liked about it, but not waking up was really bad and reboots is a little unreliable.

Honestly, I've tried about the last 5 of them...I follow the instructions as they are, and I always backup, wipe everything etc.
I set up another thread recently investigating the hardware requirments of ICS/Jelly Bean etc. to see from a hardware point what you need to get your phone running well. I think I know a bit more now thankfully but my next investigation is exactly what cars are crashing inside this damn phone...
I'm going to test another custom ROM today...here's hoping. There are a lot of alpha ROMS out there which look awesome but are very much in development...

You should flash stock firmware than flash kernel support inti.d tweaks add tweaks and add tweaks to build.prop delete apps you do not need on system/ app for more ram and
No need for a custom rom
And no bugs
And feel the speed
Hi everyone, Im a bit desperate right now, since Ive searched all the internet (or I tried) and all of xda, but couldnt find a solution to my problem. Also Im unsure what causes it (ROM, device, some app,...?), which is why Im posting in the general section. So on to my problem:
I have a Oneplus 6, with the most current official LOS release. Sometimes when I unlock my phone, some random app will start. I said semi-random, because its mostly Instagram or Authy, probably depending on which of the two I had opened most recently (actually sometimes both will open; I see Authy for a split-second and then instagram will appear and stay), but never (as far as I remember) other apps, even if I had antoher one open before it happens.
Now, I recently discovered that I can reproduce the behavior if I go to developer settings and change the display cutout setting to something different. It will reliably happen. So the screen goes black for a second, (probably re-drawing the UI) come back and Instagram will open. This led me to the idea that the UI crashes in a way. When it happens after unlocking the device, its always black for a second as well, while usually the screen is just there.
I only found evidence of the problem online regarding Samsung phones, mostly using Nova. Im using Nova as well, so that may be the cause. But I dont know for sure.
Does anyone know this problem? Why is it always one of those two apps, that appear? Can a log help me find the issue?
Things I already tried: factory resetting and setting up Nova from the ground.
Help very much appreciated
EDIT: I dug through the log file a bit and found something interesting (as far as I can say, Im far from an expert). I attached the relevant part, may be someone can tell me what happens?

You said factory restore not reflash buddy use the appporiate wording you have a expensive phone you want to modify it and when issues happen you come here if you stood on stock with no modifications or custom rom you wouldn't have this issue I would suggest simply using an alternative launcher

look, if you do not want to help me, thats perfectly fine, then please just dont post. I reflashed the ROM when factory resetting and flashed OOS in between.
If I wanted advice on which ROM or launcher to use, I would have asked for it.
