Problem with installing CM10 on Xperia Pro - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I was trying older and latest FXP 136, flashed kernel from zip, then put zip on SD card, then use Recovery to flash it, but on recovery ive got always same problem - the screen looks fine, then i press vol - to move line down and screen is getting splitted and moved on the screen, when i press vol- again its back ok, then again vol- splitting screen again, and it repeats...
Ive made a photo with screen splitted. Maybe can you tell me whats the reason? CM9 works pretty fine, but from first release of CM10 till now, i've got this problem on my MK16i...
Even when installed CM10 on this bugged recovery, Camera is not working

}

After it says "installing", what happens?

It is installed now without errors, after 2-3 wipes and installs and 3 or 4 times flashing kernel, because on first setup, i had messages about crash of setup or something like that, but after all it seems to be working, but recovery menu is still buggy as i've described above
Camera is not showing preview, but its taking pictures.
And there is again GPS problem - Google Maps can find the signal, but any other app, like Automapa cant get it and always stays at "looking for sattelites".
Also CM10 restarting from time to time, even when phone is locked, so i think ill be back to CM9...

arconium ics 4 problems

I'm new to this whole custom ROM thing so please bear with me. Okay, so I'll take it from the top. I first updated to ics. Then I updated the baseband to 72 using the Xperia Flasher by Androxyde. Then I installed the kernel. I got this one. I don't know if I did these right but I think I did... Anyway, so after that I downloaded Arconium ICS 4.0 and put the zip file in the SD card and then used the CWM (I think) to install it. Before doing that I cleared the cache, the battery stats, the dalvik cache and reset to factory settings. Then I used the zip file and did a custom default install (the first option). I did it and the phone rebooted. Now this is where the problem started... The touch screen has been acting wonky. I mean there is a little circle thing that you have to move around to make it work. I mean, I have to move the circle thing to say Settings and then click. I can't click the Settings icon directly. Is this a feature of Arconium or is this a problem? Also, whenever I open the camera, the screen gets inverted (180 deg). So I am completely out of ideas. What should I do? Are these problems kernel related or ROM related?

Much appreciated.
EDIT: You can see the little circle thing in the second attachment. Oh and I have an Arc S. And the bootloader has been unlocked (I hope)
What kernel are you using ?
And try reflashing Arconium 4.0.

unlocked and it become
choose any of the launcher, even touchwiz, it just crashes and loops back.
i can go into settngs by swipe top to bottom but it crashes at the settings screens and loops back as well
i can even hold the middle button and go the opened app/google seach etc
but same same crashes and loops back
possible cause?:
before this happened-
i was changing the ime settings for input, marking around the one-handed operational options.
WHAT CAN I DO?
any way to load the phone into a 'safe mode'
i have a feeling is the ime input crash, so if i m able to go into SETTINGS (without crash) then i maybe able to change/disable
phone is rooted so i went to the trouble to get CWM on it, and tried
wipe cache/date/factory reset all
and when the fone booted up, it says the 'setup wizard has stoped working'..
so it seems the crash point is still there... ><
next i'll try installing a custom rom over it and see what happens..
i hope this is not SDS....
anyone help?
i installed one of the latest rom over it and finally it works!
so it seems that for some reason my original (stock) rom got corrupted and caused all the crash... anyway now i m back!

downgraded now no gps and the phone is on the fritz

So about a month ago cm-updater for some reason came up on the notifications bar and told me there is an update i was running cm10.x , the update was 9.x.x. I though it was strange that it would show me this, so i just figured it was an update for the actual CMupdater. When i rebooted,my phone was stuck on the boot logo, so i rebooted into recovery flashed the latest nightly and recovered all my stuff. After a few days i noticed the phone would just freeze then reboot, then i noticed i had NO gps at all, not just an issue with GPS satalite Lock, but it wouldnt even see satalites. here is what i have done
INstalled the lasted nightly, latest stable.... no luck the phone is still acting the same
next,
googled "gps fix for Galaxy nexus"
tried a few GPSFIX.zip's in CWM
tried to erase data in services.framework with the reboot in each step
tried GPS fix and faster GPS
stilll nothing, its all the same,
then i ran the galaxynexys toolkit
locked and unlocked the phone (to erase everything)
install factory 4.2.2 image
NO GPS
installled cm10.1 lasted nightly
wiped all caches , delvik etc...
fresh install
no gps
tried to erase data again on services.framework.
no gps
left the GPS on all day, not one satalite..
Can anyone help shed any light on this issude??
\
As for the phone acting up.what will happen, i will open the phone, and after a few seconds the screen will flash black for 1/2 a second, then come back, then the phone will be SUPER slow, until i lock it and then unlock the screen again..
also random freezes and reboots.

Well, I would suggest a factory image flash, but you've already done that and gps still doesn't work. Sounds like your hardware is borked.

TWRP continuously presents the same message?

Hi Everyone,
I have unlocked the boot menu on my One M9, and installed TWRP (https://dl.twrp.me/hima/twrp-3.0.0-2-hima.img.html).
However I have a sneaking suspicion that the custom recovery is not working correctly. Every time that I boot into recovery I see the same message (shown below). Every time that I see the message I tick the 'Never show this screen during boot again' checkbox, and then swipe the 'Swipe to Allow Modifications' button.
Why am I seeing this message over and over again? Furthermore what does seeing this message actually mean? As a side note I appear to be able to install ROMs (Android HD, and Venom) - log files show successful ROM installation - however I cannot boot into them, instead I simply find myself at the bootloader screen whenever I start the phone.

Any help here would be great! I am currently unable to use the phone, and would ideally like to start using a custom ROM. However if doing so is not possible it would still be good to work out what is going on before I make the move back to the stock ROM.
Kind Regards,
Davo
that is normal, if you won't use stock roms again, just select never show this during boot again and swipe to allow system modifications. then you can normally flash roms without any problem
That is exactly my point! I have already followed your suggestion over ten times...but the message keeps appearing regardless!

Weird camera fail on HTC M8

Hi,
I have this M8 as a "testing phone" and I have changed roms time to time testing new android versions etc. In past months I have tested few roms, mainly android 11 and 10 versions. Found some things on them that didn't liked so I installed GPE MM back yesterday and them suddenly realized that camera won't work. I mean it won't start at all, it just says as in that picture. When I factory reset/wiped and installed new, not Sense, rom that whole cam app isn't even visible on app list in drawer or in desktop. But it can be found via settings/apps. And while I try to open it for example via gallery it says something like "can't connect to camera".
Then I wiped again and installed back that original MM rom and that camera icon exists again but it won't start but says still like in picture.
So do I have a situation that some camera chip etc or mainboard has suddenly failed without any reason or could this be software problem anymore since that cam won't do anything or even start with any rom?
I haven't dropped the phone or opened for a long time, I haven't even taken much pics with that m8 so it's quite weird thing. I have done factory reset while changing the rom and sometimes wiped cache, dalvik/art cache and data partitions. Twrp version is 3.3.1-3 it matters.

Try installing the camera application itself, this is how I got the camera to work
