It is a question or a statement?
what is the purpose of your post?
I think you can safely delete, create, change the file system, delete and create again, you can even format, nothing can damage (if you won't try to delete other partitions, besides p14 and p15), you can bring all the original state, if you remember about it
procedure is described in great detail, but the steps are not really so much
This ROM is worth to try it.

Yeah! This ROM is worth to try.
I just need some enough free time for repartitioning and flashing. And for SURE I'll try it!

Bpaul mentioned that acro will be eventually bricked due to repartition procedure
No possibilities to restore

hello guys, great work you do here, question i have been reading a bit and try to use the CWM to flash my acro s with this file hikari-lmy48b-20150810.zip - 197.82 MB i first made a factory reset, a wipe data cache and then tried to flash, didn't work, my phone didn't turn on, all i saw was black screen, i manage to fix it with the PC companion but i want to know what i might do wrong? is just that right? put the file with the CWM flash and that's it, should i use the 5.0? i saw you put the TWRP but i dont see the acro S there eighter, well thanks for the info and sorry for the bad english or grammar

Question...
what is the kernel?
what is the firmware?

I re-partitioned mine twice and it's now working well with BPaul's ROM.

@stonemind can you tell me which file system you used for your /data,/system and /cache to use Bpaul's Rom after re-partition ?,i repartitioned but Bpaul's ROM cant work on the new ,always get the error "encryption unsuccessful" even i formatted and cleared all the partition before install the ROM :crying:

I formatted everything for nASOP 6.0 already.
I followed thread http://xdaforums.com/xperia-s/s-development/tutorial-increase-data-partition-t2821058/post60540140 for partitioning.

That means, only /data and /sdcard were modified. /system and /cache were left intact.
Why don't you try different file system for /data (ext3/ext4 or f2fs filesystem)?

Chúc may mắn hỉ. ;)

I appreciate what BPaul did for us in this ROM. But you should try nASOP, it's better than this ROM in all aspects although it's just beta.

Installed this ROM successfully... But I have little problem here. The brightness is too bright even it's already in the lowest level. Any solution to darken the brightness?

Use lux auto brightness app from play store and set brightness values according to light intensity.

To get into fastboot, it's normal as you do always.

To enter into recovery just touch your screen when you see the LED.

Thanks for replying me. But i have another problem now (2 for now, might be added more anytime).
1) How to fix the extreme battery drain after rebooting? When i reboot my phone (it was 50%) then suddenly it drained to (12%). Does the wipe cache partition in CWM fixes this?
2) Sometimes but rarely, i experienced the sudden death of my phone. My phone suddenly shutdown by itself even in the idle mode. Yes the black screen after you press the lockscreen button.

This ROM has enough bugs, that you can't use it as a daily driver.

I'm not using this ROM anymore.
To the battery issue, try to clean flash the ROM it'll surely help you.
