I'm getting FC when I going to open camera. any solution for this problem??? Other wise ROM works smooth. thanks. :D

Full wipe and reinstall my build.. never have FC on camera or any apps until now.. :p


Hey, Jerry, I remembered something...Try to make a NAND version of twizdroid (just for comparison) because the twizdroid was the smoothest SD-CWM build.
I'll wait for your answer.

Planning to change some system files or make a combination between all my CWM ROM series to made an ultimate ROM.. not confirm about the plan but once I done that will be a super fast ROM.. :D

Hmm.. can you provide me the details for the error message? what it wrote?

Ok so what it did today was that whenever i tried to make a call it would automatically hang up right away. So I wasnt able to make any calls at all until i restarted the phone. It would go from "Dialing" (or so) to the red screen "Hanging up" by itself

Welcome.
I gave my girlfriend my X1, but the Win is too slow for her and I want to upload the Android. Tell me, is this version which is suitable for everyday use? Can you recommend some other less problematic?

Mmm, not for girlfriend, the rom is amazing, for how has been made and put in our X1, but for example the camera , can't make focus, sometimes the system hang up, or have SOD, I suppose it can be used as second phone.
BTW you should try, and then decide, but do not give to the girlfriend ;) NOT YET

Haven't better Android rom for X1, Jerry developped a lots, mostly not NAND ROM, those works fine, but haven't camera. I suggest you to flash [NAND] IceDroid V6 and then stay tuned on the forum, every sunday Jerrytan93 has a surprise for us:p

I know i should have shared this earlier and i blamed myself for not doing that this was how i overcame the "memory card must be removed before boot" or "phone will be stuck in boot loader" problem...

after I install build i remove memory card to boot my phone 1st time. after that i do the normal set ups like turning off screen off animations blah blah then i insert memory card, wait for phone to finish loading the memory card then i reboot the device normally ... hold power key press reboot and press reboot... then leave the memory card inside upon the next subsequent boots the phone never got stuck in boot loader ever again...

I'd like to give thanks to jerry and all those who have made nand flash ROM possible, God bless you. I installled v6 yesterday, my 1'st nand atempt, everything was butter smooth and impressively unbelievable until today. Market keeps crashing everytime I try to download an app. I get an error: the process android.comm.media has stopped unexpectedly. Any suggestions on how to solve? Should I reinstall gapps? Another thing I'd wish to point out is the audio player, whennever I plugin earphones, skip the next song, go back home from the media player, disconnect jack, I get multiple vibrations. Is there a setting to disable them?

Go back to recovery mode and backup the ROM > FULL WIPE > Reinstall the build > boot into Android like the first time, no need to set up anything > Shutdown and go back to recovery mode > use Advance Restore for restoring DATA ONLY.. then you are good to go.. it seems like you had broke some system apps

Use another audio player as you like.. different media player have their own bugs

    *Features:

    - Based on CyanogenMod 7.1 Android 2.3.7
    - FULLY working Camera
    - Better WiFi signal
    - FULLY working Market (able to search and compatible will all kind of apps)
    - Working USB storage mounting
    - Ice cream sandwich launcher
    - Ice cream sandwich font
    - Ice Cream Sandwich AOSP theme
    - Ice cream sandwich bootanimation
    - init.d script support
    - Added Nano text editor, Bash shell
    - Further tweaks by using init.d scripts
    - Zipaligned with latest SDK to optimize RAM usage
    - Added data/app function to install user apps separately
    - All apps are up to date as the time of ROM updated


    *Notes / Tips:

    - Since I was using Zargloub's kernel, some problems/ bugs are kernel related so I can't do anything with it.

    Kernel related bugs:
    - Unable to boot if SD card inserted [FIX HERE]
    - WiFi unable to connect WEP protected network
    - Hardware acceleration (That's why you can't play HQ video)
    - Maybe more..

    - Open 'Auto Mount' app and tick 'Enable SD card Auto-Mounting'

    - When first boot into Android, choose 'Default Activity' instead of 'Setup Wizard' to prevent FC

    - Go to Settings -> Display and untick "auto rotate screen" to avoid wrong screen orientation

    - Go to Settings -> Cyanogenmod -> Display -> UNTICK 'screen-off animation' and everything EXCEPT 0° & 90°

    - Go to Settings -> Display -> Animation -> select 'Some animations' or 'No animation', you will get faster phone response

    - Go to Spare Parts -> Window animations -> select 'Fast' or 'Off' to get faster opening speed

    - If experiencing Wifi problem (unable to connect) try to change your router Wifi settings to WPA/WPA2, WEP WILL NOT WORK

    - GAPPS had already included in this build, so no need to flash the zip separately

    - GAPPS like Market will NOT showing out if you din't sign in to Google

    - You have to remove your SD card before booting NAND or else you will STUCK at the linux screen

    - System will be slower when first time boot into Android:
    ==> Open all apps, sync your phone with Google, then reboot your phone
    ==> Install 'Advanced Task Killer' or 'RAM Optimizer' from Market to free your RAM after heavy usage

    - Go to Theme Chooser and apply ICS theme to enable ICS style effect


    Battery Saving Tips:

    - Charge your battery until 100% before installing the build, after that go to recovery and 'wipe battery stats' and then install the build.. this will give you better battery performance and calibration

    - Close your WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, Data Plan and disable 'Auto Sync' in Account Settings.. with all these steps you can save MORE battery

    - Disable 'Auto brightness' in display settings and select your own brightness

    - Use any CPU scaling apps or directly from Cyanogen options in Settings to adjust your CPU Max and Min frequency


    *Huge Thanks to:

    - CyanogenMod
    - SP3DEV
    - Zargloub
    - Dsixda
    - RockoDev


    *WHAT CAN YOU DO IF YOU APPRECIATE MY WORK:

    - CLICK the Thanks Button

    - RATE THIS BUILD

    - BUY ME A COFFEE

    IceDroid V5

    - Updated Beats lib files.. more powerful bass!!
    - Added new keyboard from Xperia device
    **Experimental because the keyboard is for ldpi screen device so the layout was a little bit smaller on screen, but it's working perfectly

    - Main focus on performance more than graphical in this release
    - Optimized RAM memory, highest free RAM achieved on first boot 93MB!!
    - Better battery life because the processor does not need to load so much heavy proccess from apps.

    Apps Replaced:

    Go Launcher EX --> Launcher Pro (lower memory usage and faster)
    Original Gallery --> QuickPic (super fast picture preview)
    Original Browser --> Opera Mobile 12 (faster web browsing)

    Mobo Video Player - Supporting more video format

    Apps Updated:

    Google Music --> Google Play Music
    Google Market --> Google Play Store

    Tips:

    For those who wants more RAM, search Market for "Auto Killer Memory Optimizer" and "Advanced Task Killer" and install these two apps


    Work In Progress :

    - USB Storage will stop working in second boot after first time successful connected, means that USB storage will only work ONCE

    - I had contacted Zargloub and discuss the problem with him. Zargloub told me that it's NOT kernel problem, however he can't see any critical errors in logcat so we can't locate the problem. I know we can change the system/bin/vold file and also etc/vold.fstab file to make the USB work,
    so this will be a workaround and need some time to find a working bin file


    6/3/12

    Mod + Download Section:

    Full Wipe Script
    Introducing Full Wipe Script for Xperia X1 NAND, originally idea from Sensation forum and mod by jerrytan93 (ME!!).. :D

    The script was packed in a zip file and using updater-script to perform data wiping. Simply go to recovery and choose 'install zip from sd card' and then flash the zip


    What will the script do for you:

    - Remove old system files from older ROM
    - Remove old data files from older ROM
    - Remove old system created folders located in SD card, but it will NEVER format your SD card.. ;)


    Advantages of using this script:

    - Save your time, no need to wipe each partition one by one
    - FULLY CLEAN all the partitions so that you will get a CLEAN ROM installation (less bugs that caused by old files)


    Important Notes:

    - Since the script will format your data partition, means that you will lost ALL your user data like Apps, configured settings, account settings.. same meaning as 'Factory Reset'

    - This script is encouraged for those user who was having some 'weird issue' that did not happened on other users (including me)

    - If you want to keep your user data while cleaning all your phone's partition, you can choose to backup your ROM before applying the script, after that use 'Advance Restore' in Recovery to restore your data partition ONLY

    I finally got some time to play around and make my sdcard also bootable this is the way i made it:
    (I hope this is finally the way that works for everyone with every card)

    caution: backup your sdcard or you will lose content

    thank to Elibl about MBR

    I think i found a way to temporarily solve the problem boot with sdcard

    first backup your sdcard data after that download my file , and extract

    1) open iBored as Admin

    2) choose your sdcard (often is physicaldrive1)

    Noted : physicaldrive0 often is hard drive , don't mistake

    3) Disk -> view structure (or ctrl + d)

    4) choose disk1

    5) Disk -> Write File to Blocks...
    6) Choose BootwSD.dat (together with ibored)
    7) program show a windows, choose yes (don't fix anything) ,and yes

    8) sdcard needs now to be formatted normally

    it worked for me every time immediately

    it's somehow logic as it then writes the file to the very beginning of the sdcard which is the section which is also checked by HDHacker

    again iBored as attachment

    huge thanks to BrickPSP

    My final development post

    Alright so I'm sorry to announce that I'm leaving this project officially, however if someone are interested to continue this project, here's some info from Zargloub which you may want to fix if possible

    zargloub said:
    Hi,
    I'm coming back from hollidays.
    Having a quick look at your page "IceDroid".
    The video playing HW acceleration is done by dsp. kernel is not concerned.
    External libraries are used to give android access to dsp processor (somewhere like in /system/lib/dsp/*.so ).
    When he needs, Android checks if libraries for playing a type of video is presend (for exemple H.264, mpeg4, 720P), if yes, library is used, otherwise, if possible, he uses software rendering. You should check if dsp libraries are available for qualcom.
    For the wifi problems, i'll have a look soon .. lot of work when coming back at the office.
    about boot with sd card, if you have some time, it would be interesting to check removing all services in init.rc and init.kovsky.rc (axcept console one, to access with adb ;) ) and check if it allways block.
    Have fun ...

    For those advance user like CoolrunnerII and Elibl you can contact zargloub for further discussion, I believe in one day you all will achieve FIRST FULLY WORKING NAND ROM FOR XPERIA X1.. :)

    Finally, I will leave Xperia X1 development now and continue my Android journey to HTC Sensation as a themer.. happy to say that this place had let me learned many things about Android ( this is my first device running Android and the place I started to be a dev ), and meet some nice guys too! :D You guys are awesome and supportive! :D

    I will not replying any more PM about IceDroid and my other CWM project.. for newcomer if you are looking for help / support / tips you can contact those advance user as I stated above.. I'm sure they are always ready to help you. ;)

    Have a nice day and GOOD BYE ! :)
