hi, after updating to the Xperia S to ICS 4.0.4
screenshot function is gone from the powerbutton menu.
i read that holding down power button and volume down, should make a screenshot, but this doesn't work on my phone.
anyone know how to capture the screen from the device ? or is this builtin option lost?
Hold power button plus volume down together for 2 seconds.
that doesn't work!

Than you're doing it wrong, or you removed the apk responsable for that (can't remember if it is an apk, anyway).
the phone is stock 4.0.4, only rooted with 1 click root method.
and sure.. doing it wrong, pressing power & volume down?!! you explain to me how pressing those 2 buttons can be done wrong??
i read elsewhere that other people also have this issue, it simply doesn't work on some Xperia S devices.
apparently mine too.
thanks anyway for your insight...
maybe someone else knows more?
Works fine
i dont know why it doesnt work for you but works for me.

Don't press one then the other... do it at the same time. Also I can't explain why but try volume up and power once and see what happens... but its a native function of ICS... should work on all devices.

This is will reboot the device. And OP, you surely is doing something wrong. It works perfectly for me on stock ICS and PA.
ok guys , thanks for advice!
i'll keep trying, hope i don't break the buttons )

If you're rooted and can't get it to work just install a screen capture app?

Which firmware are u using?
And u root it with root many droid or other 1-click method?
How do u take a screenshot as told by others? When do u take it? Which scene are u at when u take it?
This happened to someone back when I had the galaxy s2 it's just like an odd one out of the bunch I guess

It is because those apps are running with Hardware decoding, not software.

If you're on unlocked bootloader, no known way to recover it for now. I don't know exactly on how to make it software rendered on Movies App.
"What really matters in this world, anyway?"
I find this coincidence too hard to believe, but my volume "up" key stopped working right after updating to Jelly Bean. I also checked in the service menu and it doesn't recognize when I push it there either. Anyone else find this too big of a coincidence?
I suffer from that sh*t too bro. A lot of bugs in this firmware. Shame on sony. I thought they put a lot of effort into this

Yeah same here, frstily i though it's hardware problem, but after i turn off phone button work for some time and than after few minutes it's doesnt work again.
Same for my Acro S
I hate the JB update now
it very annoying and full of bugs
Sony has become a Sh*T for me now
Touch also has become non responsive especially while games and home screen
I've had the same problem. I'm thinking of just unlocking the bootloader and installing Cyanogenmod. I don't think Sony is going to give us any more bug fixes or updates after 211. The whole Jelly Bean update has been half ass. They are more focused on their newer phones and on getting sales revenues on those devices. After the marketing buzz wears off you're on your own.
Me too
I have same issue, at mo i press volume down then slide it to higher volume touching the screen, but would like a proper fix

I am also thinking about unlocking the bootloader. Just typed in : *#*#7378423#*#* and went straight to the rooting status. It says bootloader unlock allowed: no. According to these and what i've read on the forums, I will never be able to unlock my phone (i have rooted it but that had also some problems) and install a custom rom?
I have the same problem but I downgrade my phone to 4.0.4.
I suggest to downgrade and wait for anthor firmware from Sony

Volume up button issue has been solved
There was a problem in functioning volume up button in xperia s after updating jelly bean and There is no Refresh option in the music library ( Walkman) so that there is a issue in updating after adding or removing songs. Now these two issues will be solved if you follow the following steps.
To Refresh music library in walkman and to funtion volume up button, follow the following steps:-
(1) Settings -- Applications -- Internal -- Running -- All -- Walkman (152kb) -- Clear data
(2) Settings -- Applications -- Internal -- Running -- All -- Walkman (4.18 MB) -- Clear data
(3) Settings -- Applications -- Internal -- Running -- All -- Play Now -- Clear data
After doing all these steps, my walkman music library has been refreshed ( after adding or deleting songs) and Volume up button has been started working properly now.
I hope this will help for all the xperia s owners.
Wishing you all the best
I also have some minor/major bugs since the JB update,with ICS I had fast charge, but now on JB I dont have it...and it drains my battery, this new Power saver is not any help...I hate it,It must be inactive for a while to work(?!) f*ck this sh*t...and same problem with wolumen key, I don't even want to mention gaming and userface problem while charging...

I can't blame Sony for this one because the same volume-up issue that affects me on the lt28h stock Jelly Bean firmware plagues me on the Cyanogen 10.1.2 install on my Nook Color.
Testing it out on my Ion, I'm finding that the problem is not limited to the Walkman app. TuneIn Radio was affected, too.
It tends to repair itself after a reboot, but that's fairly inconvenient.
Just unlocked my bootloader yesterday
And I can feel i lost the bravia engine because watching movies or image is not as exciting as before (it looks pale)
Im using Viper V5 and luupus V15
bravia engine already included in the rom, so how I can activate it on the unlocked bootloader Arc S?
reply is appreciated :angel:

Bravia Engine is part of the system ROM.
Viper is based on stock ICS ROM, so you should be able to enable it from Settings - Display. Just tick Bravia Engine option.

If you unlocked using Sonys method then you should know you were going to lose it.

You can not see the difference like that. The difference is seen only when you compare the same picture with 2 versions of it next to each other, one with BE, other without.

No, I can see the difference clearly
I take a screenshot from my home screen and compare my home screen with the screenshot from the album (using multitasking), the screenshot looks clearly more green, more blue, more red (more saturated)
But now my home screen and my screenshot have no difference

If it was there with the ROM, and it is ticked, then it is working. You can not do anything further.

After unlocking bootloader
BE1 for videos should work
And BE2 works for photos
Its weird but thats what i learnt yesterday
Sent from my LT18i
That is rite one works with be2 and other be1 but x reality thread is what u need, check it out, it will explain how to get 2 b.e working as one
Sent from my LT18i using xda app-developers app
If you unlocked bootloader via Official unlocking method ,you lost your DRM as well as BE . its not coming back.i realized it after unlocking
there is another method ( Test point ) which can keep both BE and DRM.
Dont listen to the above post, check out the x reality tread and it will explain how to 2 versions of b.e working as one, so the answer is its bit more work to get it working with a unlocked bootloader. I'm not sure If its be1 or be2 working, it one or the other with working be3, just ur settings will only say be2 or be1 depending on ur Rom and settings apk

Dear all
After one month using my Xperia Acro S updated to JellyBean I realized that the proximity sensor is not working.
During a call the screen doesn't turn off avoiding touch on the screen, but before the update, with ICS, it was working very well.
What I tried to do, but without result:
1st recover JB by device
2nd recover JB by PC Companion
3rd flash JB by Flashtool
I tried to Google, but I didn't find a solution to fix this problem for Acro S...
I tried *#*#7378423#*#* and tested the sensor, and it always shows "off"
I tried lots of softwares that make changes to the sensor, and they don't work (recognize the sensor?)
After sometime I realized that the problem may be the JB and not the device, as the ICS was working, so I flashed to ICS again to confirm. As I expected the sensor was working properly: I typed *#*#7378423#*#* again and checked the sensor and it changes to "on" everytime I cover the sensor.
Somebody is experiencing the same problem? Could you fix it? How?
Thanks...

Hi...
I proceeded as suggested and it still doesn't work. I flashed with the new Flashing tool 0.9.11.0 by Bin4ry and Androxyde and the sensor is not working.
I flashed to ICS again and it works very well, I don't understand...
What I noticed is that the sensor seems to work together with the light sensor, in the same position. Somebody knows if the sensor is the same? In the ICS the proximity sensor works when I cover the same part of light sensor (left from the speaker) and not in the right between the speaker and front camera.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks

Hi bluechip850
Thanks for the suggestion, but as I told I tried this and the sensor is working well in ICS.
By the way, I'm still using ICS due to the sensor is not working in JB.
I really would like to use JB, mainly because I noticed that the battery in ICS gets low faster that JB.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks

My phone is a Xperia Acro S (LT26W) JB 4.1.2
I need to power the screen off manually every time I want to answer or make a call. I just fast press the button of the power just to turn off the screen and avoid to touch the screen accidentally.
When I finish the call I also need to fast press the button again so I can access the screen options again.
It is so boring, but I just found this solution until the next update. I didn't find any other solution or software to change or turn on the proximity sensor. I actually found some scripts, but I don't have experience to change the system and I don't want to kill my phone, so I decided to wait to the next update instead of downgrade to ICS again, which was working well, because of the improvements that JB provides.
If you find some information that can fix the proximity sensor, please tell me...

well forgot to say, was searching on net and got that infor about software "smart screen off" it is made by someone from here on XDA. Decided to give it a try, installed it from playstore, it makes one icon on deesktop which function like simple button, when u press button proxim. sensor starts working and acting normaly, when u press it again it switch off so proxim sensor again not working as it is JB bug so JB keeps it off all the time when there is no other software which will enabled it directly, so go go try it I hope it will work for you as well.

I wouldn't like to say that just the software couldn't work.
The proximity sensor in actually disabled in my phone. I need to turn it on first to use any software to manage the proximity sensor. I thought that this software you told would enable the sensor, not just manage it.
Anyway thanks, if you have another suggestion I would be pleased to try
It seems like somewhere in the system a value to have the proximity sensor on during a call is set to off, find where its located and copy it over from ICS to jb and you should be good to go

Nice idea, but can you explain or send a link how to access the system and make this changes?
Thanks
This is just an idea, if someone has a build.prop on the same phone and same version that has no issues with proximity post it here then OP flash to jb delete your build.prop and paste theres in your system folder. Else you could try copying your build.prop from ICS and pasting it in jb. Supposably that is where the issue lies on some phones. You may also want to flash a jb firmware that isn't stock, any ROM from the xperia s section should work. For editing the build.prop you need root and a root browser then go into system and at the bottom is build.prop. you may also want to read your build.prop and see if there are any lines for proximity in there
It seems as though you're not in touch with the android system, no offence, so I'd take the easy route and flash a jelly bean firmware from the across s section, this should work perfectly fine for you because its simply the stock ROM that's the issue and had a regression and most devs will fix this in their ROM.

Thanks for the explanation, but in my Acro S it didn't work very well. In my oppinion is more effective to press power button quickly to turn off the screen, because sometimes the software seems that is not running and it doesn't turn the screen off automatically....

Where I should type this lines? Can you give me extra instructions?
I have boot browser in my phone now
One of the reason I bought the ZL was the IR remote function, but unfortunately Sony didn't do a good job on it.
Only presets that came with the app worked, learning function didn't.
At first I thought that it was only my device that didn't work, but after searching a bit, I found out that
almost every ZL user faced this problem.
I gave up on the IR remote and went with a custom ROM.
Until yesterday I found this app that someone made for the Tablet Z.
It's called TSRemote, it only has the learning function for now.
The author seems busy and hasn't updated it for a while.
Hopefully someone can work on this project, it's opened source on GITHUB.
Link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2385277
The layout will be overlapped since it's meant for Tablet Z, you need to change the app DPI to 260-280 and it will look good.
Tested working with OMNI ROM 4.4
link is not working..
The stock IR app is functioning normally (including learning feature) under 4.3 10.4.B.0.569. If you are comfortable with the stock Sony firmware then you should consider updating to this firmware.
Really? Didn't know that...
Haven't gone back to stock ROM after flashing a custom one.
I'll try that soon.
Anyways, I think this is still good news for AOSP users.
Since IR remote is one of the function that haven't been implemented to the ROMS.
People might want to stay with AOSP rom and have an IR remote.
Well it's all about preferences.

So, you're saying that you can confirm that there are cases where Sony's Remote Control App's "Manual Setup" feature says it learns the IR command successfully, and then is also able to replicate that command to the device successfully?
And with the same device, it sometimes also states it learned the command successfully, while infact pressing the button doesn't seem to replace that command to the target device?

I was wondering because I know many people experience problems with the remote IR learning feature. In an attempt to get to the bottom of this, I was wondering if your case could be special.
However, in the meantime I received word that Xperia ZL units manufactured before week 18 of 2013 have a hardware production fault that prevents proper IR learning. I have yet to receive a working ZL (I sent it in for repair twice already).
For anyone in the same boat, check out the link in my sig.

So IR learning works on your device. What's the manufacturing date of your ZL?

You can find the date when unfolding the label where the SIM and the SD are. Mine is from 13W06 and IR learning does not work.
