[Q] Cyanogenmod 10 camera problem - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi everyone. I'm new to this rom installing thing. I installed cyanogenmod 10 yesterday. I'm glad about it.
But i have a camera problem. My cam saves videos perfectly. But when i take pictures, application freezes and don't save the photo and shutdown.
I tried zoom camera fx app to. it says 'saving photo...' and i waited about half an hour but nothing happened.
Can you guys help?

CM10 is not really stable in this state and I'm sorry. It would never ever be stable for this world to Xperia X8. CM7 is enough stable for X8.

perfectly stable on my x8. tried a few cm10-based roms as well. not as fast/responsive as cm7, but just as stable.
@op: what rom+kernel combo are you using?

yeah. i noticed some people having issues now. maybe due to the unified kernel? i don't know. the only bug i have is bluetooth which i don't use anyway. it's also present on cm7 for the unified kernel.

Thank you for your answers. I think i will try CM7. Hope it fixes the problem.

[Q] Help. Phone reboots without reason.

My friend's samsung galaxy mini, running on cm9, sometimes reboots automatically... this heapens every time when he preforms an action wich takes some cpu. (Like whatsapp, playstore or sometimes even when just unlocks the screen. We tried a clean cm7 rom and a heavily tweaked cm7 rom. So they are very different roms, but still same problem.
Is this a common problem and does somebody know a solution for this?

Yea still CM9 is buggy and is stil nt gud for daily use. N rest of the roms are working fin like CM7 stable version or Cyanmobile experience or new experience by autoradio
Coz we nvr experienced des probs. These probs wil b in the initial versions of certain roms. So try stable versions of roms and you shouldn't get reboot probs..

Well that is not common, maybe he should not overclock his phone. try Cm7 by mebitek or creeds 4.0 rom. Maybe apps force close as he is doing heavy multi-tasking. If u think its hardware defect, u can flash a stock rom and play the dumb at service centres.

i think it's a rom problem,i face it when i'm on that build,but now i change to gueste.. and everything works,try to change kernel.. or rom..
I also had this problem on Parandroid CM10, no sign of life from the phone at all.
However, I reflashed the rom and now it works great.
Ok rom issue then. I will reflash it with a different one and kernel. Any kernel recomendations?

Happened to me on gueste2x v3.8 last night while I was USB tethering...and I was just pushing for a record time running made it to 160 hours and had to pull battery out to get it working again. As mentioned already, it's probably something to do about background data/wifi activity.
Nevertheless, I still recommend gueste2x v3.8 :thumbup: Give it a try

[DISCUSSION] CM 10.1 for Xperia T

This is a general discussion thread for "Cyanogen Mod 10.1 (CM10.1)" for the Sony Xperia T (LT30p)
Development thread here
I started this thread as there are some differences between CM10 and CM10.1. The aim for it is to disucss CM 10.1 for Xperia T roms, to ask questions, share knowledge or just state an opinion - so long as you are not inconsiderate, condescending or outright rude - anything goes! Just follow XDA rules.
Be aware that at at this stage CM 10.1 is work in progress and the build available is still a test build. I don't think that the ROM developers will follow this thread regularly so any questions to them might not be answered here

HDMI is not working for me... it was working in CM 10 so I don't think my MHL convertor is the issue (tried on both TV sets I have at home). For sure it's phone related because I cannot charge through the MHL adapter. Is there any setting that I need to do in the phone that I'm missing?
NFC works, I tested with an HTC One X yesterday excanging links, contacts, addresses and pictures

Voice calls was only 25 minutes and screen 1h and 20 minutes (with 50% brightenss). Same settings with CM 10 or stock ROM my battery was available 16 - 18 hours
Few force closes on Chrome.
Sometimes my files seem to disappear. (Happened yesterday with a video, and later with several images)

Should be, as there is no baseband/modem/radio firmware included.
Wouldnt worry too much, if you **** up you can always flash back to stock or CM10 using fastboot or flashmode.

No, CM10.1 is not released, it's a I-am-so-nice-you-may-have-a-preliminary-look-at-how-we-progress-but-we-are-still-not-nearly-done kind of release by the FXP group. Feedback is not endorsed (as mentioned earlier) and instructions definitely do NOT exist, apart from being identical with CM10.
As soon as you see 10.1 builds appear on get.cm you may pose your question again, before that it has to be looked at as - probably best described as - "internal project"...

It works reasonably well on my phone on both builds. I get an occasional hiccup or FC, but it is usable nonetheless.

i used CM10.1.13 time ago, and the performance in games is little poor. has low fps rate for games in general.
i came back to 4.1.2 only for games, the fps rate is little better, but the interface it sucks (for my)
i was enchanted with trebuchet <3
i will test CM11 soon! when it is more stable

I've tried DH on stock and CM (without changing kernel) and it's totally fine for me when the phone is cool.
The problem is WHEN THE PHONE IS COOL! put an ice bag to the back of the phone should solve the throttle.
jk, I have a small netbook fan and put the phone on it every time I play game
Another point to consider is check if you set the GPC frequency to too low, I use the setting: CPU 1000MHz x4, GPU 225MHz

Some custom kernels (e.g. werewolf) allow the phone to operate properly at higher temperatures (i think sth. about 80°C, LG standard is about 70°C).

I know, but it will kinda not good for the battery, the skin temp default is 43 but kernel starts to throttle at 40, werewolf kernel push it to 50 (as far as I remember). anw, it still produce a lot of heat and might potentially throttle again. Raising the alarm threshold is not a cure, just make the phone not throttle easily. Ice bag is better

[Q] What is the advantage for choosing CM

What has CM for advantage above fw or other rom's?

A clear difference is speed. No more lags in opening anything which is the major drawback of official jb.
How about battery performance. I now use dxamd1 with cocore 6.8. And I charge once a day in the nightly hours. And use my phone freqently the whole day

Battery is quite good for me. A good start considering the rom is not optimized yet.
Sent from my GT-I9070 using xda app-developers app
Battery life is amazing, considering cm10.1 is still quite raw. I've just plugged my phone in after 2 days.. 15% battery left. Some whatsapp, some messaging, some browsing, some music... the usual stuff. Wifi on 100% of the time.
So is speed, smooth as butter. The only drawback I was able to find so far is benchmark results... ran antutu and scored 5030 points, while the better stock JB roms are near or at 7000 points. Mind you, if I hadn't run that benchmark, I wouldn't have noticed there was a performance deficiency.. no lags, no hiccups, nothing.
If you don't use video recording, and don't mind turning the volume down then up during a call to solve the low volume problem... then yes, go with CM10.1 as it is right now, it doesn't dissapoint. It can only get better!
So wich cm Rom version comes out best out of the box here. And can i flash it over all fw versions?

Well, there are a lot of CM10.1 nightlies... Have a look in the archive, I've personally had excellent results with the 20130621 one. Don't flash the latest 20130627 since it's corrupted (it weights 94 MB and a full rom is about 165-170MB)
From what I've read so far, CM10.1 works just fine if flashed over XXLQE firmware, but could have problems if using another one as base. I used polish XXLQE as base and it worked perfectly, apart from the two or three bugs CM10.1 still has.
I think cm 10.1 and pac 23.0 works well with any other base too. I'm using indian ddulp8 and got no issue at all. But better install from fresh stock firmware to avoid any problems.
