Thanks waja for ur respond. Currently trying Paranoid ROm and so far very good. Very smooth on every aspect. I liked MIUI (used on my previous N1,NS and Desire HD) but the current MIUI for ION is not stable and not fully working. I got many error msgs here and there (I flashed twice).
Any good thing about Xperia NExus ? still ICS rite ? |

I liked MIUI (used on my previous N1,NS and Desire HD) but the current MIUI for ION is not stable and not fully working. I got many error msgs here and there (I flashed twice). After using this NeXus for more than a week, i can say nothing soo big about this rom...Any good thing about Xperia NExus ? still ICS rite ? Its just like stock, but with different Launchers, much more Debloated system, nothing much... What i dont like about this rom is, the Launcher and theme is much more worst than stock, currently now im using Xperia Z launcher....But this rom is mod-friendly, ive installed Cyber-Shot, QcAE sound mod, JB Tab n' Grid, Seeder...All works fine, no FC's But still i'd prefer XZXperience....I ran to this NeXus because XZX v2 is a bad dream for me... Check at the dev thread about v2, they changed the internal storage and SD Card setting, make it worst... But still XZX v1 is perfect...superb.... QUOTE(louneas @ May 11 2013, 12:49 AM) after turn off phone, im trying to push and hold volume up button but nothing happen? Maybe you do it the wrong way....Its like this :at the same time my phone connected to computer with USB cable, but not sony xperia usb cable. however my phone still charging? why it cant work? - Disconnect phone from PC - Turn off your phone - Push and Hold Volume UP button - While holding Volume Up button, Connect USB cable to PC, Done Im not sure what youre talking about that USB cable, what i meant about USB Cable is, the cable you received with the phone bro...Hope it helps...Any question just ask me here Ive already editted the tutorial for more easier understanding |

Open up " fastboot_with_Android_USB_file > fastboot ". Right click at the background of the folder while holding SHIFT button. -Select 'Open command window here' and Command Prompt will pop out -Make sure your phone is in Fastboot mode ( Blue LED color emitted at the Notification Light) |

Im not sure about windows 8 but that can be one of the reason....Can try it on other system? Win7/XP |
