Anyone got this working on XZ running stock 4.2.2?

I'm running a stock, deoxed and zipaligned 10.3.A.0.423

I've been trying to install V5 but it's simply not installing. I've read and reread the OP but it's not installing.

I've installed the following via CMW as well as TWRP (using the zipalign fix):

Xperia_Z_home_V5.0_Home_Base_Xperia_Devices_ThilinaC.zip

Xperia_Z_home_V5.00_Widget_Pack_Xperia_Devices__ThilinaC.zip

Xperia_Z_home_V5.00_No_Desktop_Stage.zip

Does anyone have any tips and suggestions?

[Android Apps and Games] layup23:
I'm not sure I understand something.... the V5 ( the Honami launcher), right now it's only for 4.2.2? That's what I understood from the first post.

I've got an Xperia J running on 4.1.2( hdpi) and from what I read the only available launcher is the Xperia Z, am I correct?

Thanks !

[Android Apps and Games] :
If you, like me, are not into the pagination icons shown on the desktop (telling you which homescreen you are at), there are 2 ways of getting rid of them:

1. Using the autohide feature - this will hide the pagination selecting the homescreen

In values/bools, set

<bool name="desktop_pagination_autohide">false</bool>

to

<bool name="desktop_pagination_autohide">true</bool>

Given this is a setting in values, it has to be combined with the correct drawer dimensions and autorotate feature (I used 6*5 and autorotate enabled)

2. Use an empty png for home_pagination_deselected.png, home_pagination_selected.png and home_pagination_drawer.png for the correct resolution (this will work on all variations of autorotate and dimensions and is safe to be flashed on top of these. It will always hide the pagination indicators

I have taken the liberty to do those changes and upload for the users:

DOWNLOAD 6*5 drawer with AUTOROTATE and AUTOHIDE enabled

DOWNLOAD no pagination images (safe to be flashed in combination of any mods and settings)

Both files have the updated zipalign included and will work flashing with TWRP recoveries.

Dear,

Thanks for this great mod

I have xperia pro running stock ics. I had installed your

Xperia_Z_home_V3.5_No_Auto_Roatation_HDPI_5x4appd_ThilinaC.zip mod

But I have problem in landscap mod. App drawer work as 5x4 in portrait mode, but in landscap mode it cuts the fifth line. So I cant access the app that are in fifth line. Please fix this issue.

I have attached screen shoot for your reference.

I'm on LG P700 running V10K and everything works fine, Launcher, Weather Widget etc. But the Clock widget: I can add the widget, that's fine, and no display problems but when I tap the clock, rather than opening the clock app (alarms, timers etc) it just creates and activates 1 or a long list of alarms set at the current time. I have to use the clock icon from the drawer to go in and delete them all.

I do like the look of the newer Sony devices, I just worry that they won't get the developer following that Samsung phones have. Wait for MWC and see if Samsung announces the Galaxy S4, it's only a short time away and you see something other than either of those that you like.

I have an LG Optimus L9 P765 (Indian variant) with Stock ROM v10d on it.

WiFi on my set seems to be misbehaving. It connects to my network and works fine for sometime, but when I leave it unused for about say 5 minutes the mobile does not connects with my WiFi network.

In notification bar it shows that it is connected but actually there is no data transfer occurring.

Its very irritating as I don't get instant emails, whatsapp chats etc.

Is anybody else facing the same problem ? Please suggest any remedy for this problem.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] dz007:
Yeah, same problem here.

I've got an Indian P765 with V10d stock ROM as well. If left idle for sometime, the wi-fi seems to be connected but no data transfer occurs.

The small upward pointing triangle is shown on the wi-fi icon in the notification area, but the data transfer LED of the wi-fi modem doesn't blink, and so no webpage loads.

But if the wi-fi is being used continously, the problem doesn't occur.

Looking forward to a solution, thanks.

Edit: Reduced the Beacon Interval of the Wi-Fi modem to 100ms. The data connection is maintained now.

Problem solved. The phone's working fine afterall. :)
