[Q] Wifi iussi even with wifix

Hello guys
I´ve got 2 Questions:
1. When I installed originell ICS on my phone it was not as responsible like it was on Gingerbread and the WIFI was really bad. I tried it with das wifix-app but it didn´t helped. So I went back to gingerbread (TEAM Rom/Doom Kernel version 18/and some Mods) and everything is working perfectly). So why is my wifi so bad on ICS?
2. Do I have to stay on GB or will it be soon possible to have good wifi on my xperia arc s?

i will make every thing clear for you
1- i tried the official ics and same thing happens with me + poor battery life it's all about the proper baseband and kernel you can try ics custom roms you will find the right baseband and kernel included.
2- my advice is stick with GB VERY GOOD performance and battery life & as i tried every rom here i recommend you this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1565990
read it carefully and know what you are doing and you will have everything perfect

All right
I will try it out and will give a Feedback

It´s okay
Ok the rom is fast, stable and runs fluid, but the battery life is bad for me
EDIT: Alright with baseband 70 and doomkernel 18 it´s great
Thanks

You should try new ICS roms, especially Arconium 2.4. Since this last update, the rom seems a LOT more smoother, just like Gingerbread, and I'm having one day and a half for battery with intensive gameplaying (I'm Fruit Ninja addicted) and a few hours with Wi-Fi. And my Wi-Fi connection is great by the way. I'm on 70bb, DooMKernel v04, with SetCPU controlling my clock speeds when screen's off.

Better wait for a patch of the cm7 of phiexz cause im using it right now and its has a problem on sound. Its so much low. Everithing else its stable. If you choose it instal beats audio mod on Ace forums, the Ultimate Media Enchancement on themes and apps forums. With this two scripts the sounds back to normal but its a little low anywhere :/

The previous Phiexz 20120602 nightly is ideal, fast and stable.

phiexz now share his ROM at gio community, or you can straight download from his blog. http://android.phiexz.com
for sound problem in his blog phiexz got the answer.

there is hardly communication. about the rom
is a2sd. still proprietary?
is this kernel related?
copying. library. files from anywhere to anywhere is no solution just an idea....
a rom without. relayable sound. is not a phone so not a stable working thing
are the sound libs kernel related? or just. rom
is it rc3. or still old rc2?
are. we on a dead. trail, nothing. seems to live on gio anymore?

Hi there, u sound so... sad :laugh: be a little bit optimistic will ya? LOL I have a series of rom collection that is, according to me, stable enough: PX's CM7, Delano's LEWA, Delano's MIUI GB, self built CWM DXKT8, AOKP ICS B40, tioammar's Android X (my current rom)
Seriously none of the above came stable enough out of the box except PX's CM7 & tioammar's Android X (most stable, ready to use right after flashing), but doing some stuff to the rom makes them (those not too stable) stable enough for daily use
so keep ur spirits up :good:

i have not seen tips to make roms really more stable...
use a2sd to free memory but all but standard (public available beta) is stable, s2e made it to work for . 2. full minute's. and had to reflash...
problems with the later Rome with beautiful. cm menues is the entered. data is not applied..settings get corrupted and the whole thing locks up, leaving a completely. unreliable. phone.
a phone without sound is no solution then....
realty love the stability. brought by phietz
but not seeing any comments nor explaining. makes. me a bit sad.
with the other Rom believe. me i tried most of them but every,daily (required) reboot doesn't, warranty me the basics..... feel ashamed. to walk arround and can not pick up the phone in timely due to. one or other lockup or crash reboot in-between a call.

i will be forced to go back. to stock rom
as i was in the pre phietz. period

I see, perhaps there are some difference in your standards of requirement for rom spec and mine
Back when CM7.2 start to have stability issue with A2SD and S2E (2 months ago estimated) I started to switch permanently to Link2SD, but it wont free as much rom space as the other 2, then I started to open up the rom and bareboned it as much as I could go without damaging the stability, there are plenty of guide for this, cyanogen has his own barebones list, the OP for Adrenaline has his own guide for it too, those 2 were my guides, as for apk that I am not sure of deleting, I would google it up and do some trial n error, up to today, everything seems fine to me. A bareboned rom will eat up 45mb right after installation, that will leave a lot of space for Link2sd to work with the rest of the apps that I need to install on my phone.
init.d scripts: I have been using reference from zeppelinrox's V6, Adrenaline, and Pikachu's Thunder Bolt Package, but I do not use all of them together, Adrenaline is most suitable for Gio because the author wrote it for Ace, which has almost identical spec to gio, but I do not use all of his tweaks, instead, I opened up all the scripts written in the above packages and read the tweak sentence by sentence, I am not a programmer/ IT guy, in fact, I work in a hotel for a living, muahahahaha :laugh: when I started I dont have a clue about what is on my laptop screen, but I took my time and read through the entire V6, Adrenaline, Thunderbold thread, and slowly beginning to understand, and still am learning, muahahahaha :laugh: the scripts may not be perfect, but it does help in speeding and stabling stuff for the phone.
Sound: I have to agree with u that the latest release of PX CM7 has low sound, again, I use some available sound boost package available, well not @ XDA, but @ Delano's forum, it helps the rom "a bit" and frankly from what I have in my AOKP rom, none of the CM or even the STOCK rom's sound can compare to it, muahahahaha :laugh: but ICS AOKP port is still far from what I need from my phone function for my work, so I switched back to CM7 but due to missing AOKP setting style, instead of PX's CM, I picked tioammar's Android X because the settings panel is "SLICK" muahahahaha :laugh:
update-cm-7.2.0-20120602-NIGHTLY-gio-AROMA.zip from PX is a nice rom, to counter the camera bug (governor switch back to ondemand), u could flash his latest cm kernel px-kernel-20120606-cyanogenmod7 and the bug will be gone...
Its nice to see u pursuing high standards, I compromise some stuff off, muahahahaha :laugh:

cm9 AOKP a joke ?

All the effort i see invested in CM9-CM10_AOKP with as mayor problem that all the memory gets consumed so that only few applications can run ????
I ask myself why !!!
Tried out CM9/CM10/OAKP(franklin)) and installed a2sdx and int2ext4+ .... just to be able to get some applications running
Not only is the thing getting horribly slow and very buggy it is in fact completely unusable at this time.
Ex standard applications as Google play are completely failing ....
it is possible to download aps and install them manually but then you can not support it any more.....
These are NOT rom's for daily use. not in a long shot .
its back to good old Piethtz who took pride in finishing stuff untill it was WORKING AND STABLE.
Bugs in AOKP (franklin) just use it it fails and crashes
bugs in CM9 lagging like hell practicably impossible to use the keyboard
and do not tell me not to use a2sd functionality it's simply not worth it for 2 applications/not even for 30 ... then Stock roms are way better.
A long as that memory limitation problem is there android notebooks and phones are dead, not worth investing in not in 2012
If their architecture is such that this is killing the use we should abandon android architecture its mis concieved
this is not the quality of windows
this is not the quality of linux
this is not yet .....
if installing multiple applications use a simple symbolic or direct link is getting in so much trouble the real quality of the whole is not Good
with all respect for the work of ericas and ....
signing off

you should know there isnt an old windows phone or whatever that can run windows 8 via an unofficial way.
ics/jb is not made for our gio's, and so, it wont work as good as you want it to be. if you want that, buy a galaxy s3. they even give you a better screen and processor.
so stfu and live with it or get rich and buy high end smartphones.

Did you try link2sd?
By the way I've just installed this rom, and I think it's the first usable Android 4 for Gio.
Camera and camcorder working finally, everything's running stable and smooth (yet).
The only thing I haven't experienced yet is battery life. If it can take 1.5-2 days with average usage, it will pass my high standards that no other non-stock based rom have passed yet.
Oh, and after installing some basic apps(Skype, Maps, GMail, TC, etc...), I still have 108MB free on internal mem.
So no, it's not a joke, it's the best ROM out currently for Gio (a smooth camcorder like the TW Camera in stock would be good, but this is just a minor negative point if you take the features that ICS gives into consideration).
I say this after trying about 30 different ROM's in the past half year...

I'm sorry to ask you this: did you pay for his work? which makes you right for komplain about it?

installed a2sdx and int2ext4+ .... just to be able to get some applications running
this is your problem
two scripts that do the same thing
chose only one of them (i recomment cronmod int2ext+ if you want that kind of script, i use link2sd and link only the games)
and in developer settings choose force gpu rendering(for better battery aver all) and smartassv2 or interactive

Some bugs
Can someone please post this in the dev thread? I don't have 10 posts yet...
So far I've found these four bugs:
-(MINOR) Ringtones play only once if there's no ANDROID_LOOP=true OGG metatag in the sound file. By the metatag it seems rather a feature than a bug, but in 2.3.x roms it was not needed, and it can really troll new rom users. Please fix if possible, or write instructions (convert file to ogg and set the metatag, that's all but it needed me a lot of googling to find it)
-(MAJOR) Init.d settings (at rom settings) cause heavy load, and settings won't stay (su permission request accepted of course). It can't be enabled at all because of this.
-(MAJOR) Google Talk from gapps-ics-20120429 FC with "Need GTalk_SERVICE permission".
Tried first by just installing talk.apk (extracted from gapps) as system app, then by flashing the whole gapps zip, then with full wipe, rom reflash and flashing gapps immediately after rom flash, but no luck. Tried CWM fix permission too (no effect), but couldn't try rom init.d feature fix permissions due to the previous bug.
-(CRITICAL) If I go outside the signal area of a WIFI AP (without turning off wifi) and there's no other available connection (I don't have mobile net atm), the whole system crashes when an application tries to initiate a connection.
No response to:
-Touch
-Back softkey long set to kill
-Pwr hardkey, home hardkey
Only removing battery helps, however my live wp (phase beam, the one that's integrated in the rom) moves until that.
It happened two times:
-Wifi dropped due to signal loss, unlock phone, push browser icon, browser icon glows, crash
-Wifi dropped due to signal loss, unlock phone, open wifi settings (with wifi powerswitch longpress), select another ap to connect to, start to enter wpa passphrase, crash after typing 4 chars (some process in the background may have tried to initiate a connection meanwhile)
If you can't reproduce tell me and I'll try in USB Debug to get a logcat dump.
I still say this is the best ICS/JB rom out for Gio, but if you can fix these it'll be completely perfect

installing multiple a2ad.. methods one after the other gives similar errors that disappear when not installed. Up to no one published this serious memory handling BUG in the center of ics cm9/scm10/aokp biggest problem area.
problems in the center area need to be solved if people want to believe in any future for the Rom.
why invest time in any os if people are not assured the main problem lack of memory handling poses a risk of complete failure
that is the reason for the"is this a joke?"
the hard work of the developers is NOT assured questioned nor diminished
I refered to linux and windows as basic fundamental robustness as a base.
individual apps anoi one person.failure into the core make everything fail

you have crash on my rom? R u kidding me ? R u using any tweak? I use that for gaming/internet and music at same time and no crash, try reflashing rom, also cm is bigger than aokp, that's why cm9/cm10 are laggier, but with aokp jb or ics rom isnt crashing

In my opinion I find your AOKP to be the most efficient and stable ROM I have installed on my phone so far. The battery so far has lasted up to 2 days while I have been receiving calls and playing games and its only at 66%! I am loving your ROM. No crashes so far. Thanks for all your (and erikcas, jellaxy's) hard work.

No tweak. Some apps uninstalled from system (trebuchet, live wp's), and link2sd that's all. With link2sd Google Maps is on SD, maybe it's background service doesn't like it, apart from it there's nothing wrong I could've done.
CPU settings: clocks at stock, governor is SAv2.
About 1 crash / day. Newer crashes seemed unrelated to wifi signal drop.

Set higher minfree value

CPU Settings? Because mine lasts only one day, but I use phase beam live WP, so that could be the cause if you use similar settings as I.

You can use linke2sd on AOKP(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1968537) it works for me.
And stop complaning in every thread. The developers are making their work for fun and most important for FREE.

about AOKP 4.1.2 JB

hi @all
i'm new to all this stuff.
i still own a Gio but would get a better performance. so i looked arround and found this site. i got the AOKP rom from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2075310 and it works great. only two little things are not working correctly. after a few minutes my wifi is disconnected. and i can't connect again unless i reboot the phone. and bluetooth isn't working.
may be some of u know how to fix it? would be great.
btw: it's an amazing work u all do here.

That stuff is probably the drivers fault, but have u tested to change the Wifi Scan Interval? That can be done with the Pimp My Rom app.

[Q] Bluetooth HID keyboard problem

Hello,
I've been using openSEMC for a while no on my Xperia S, and it works great.
There's only a quite annoying bug, which I can't resolve.
I've searched quite a lot but I cannot find a solution.
I can connect to my bluetooth keyboard, it pairs, and seems to be connected, but no input whatsoever is registered.
I just seems to be dead..
It's not the keyboard, because it works on other android devices, and used to work on mine before I flashed the openSEMC rom.
I found one more entry in the development section of the rom about this, but there was no reaction, or solution.
Hoping somebody can help me here!
Cheers,

Well opensemc is a beta(i think) so things may not work, and i suggest using the stock rom if you want everything to work
+ i personaly like the 96 firmware

even my personal opinion is use .96 stock or stock based rom.everything works and no problems.i used to use pac because ics seemed slow and laagy for me but now no issues so,its near abt perfect
