See, I have CWM 6.0.3 on my Z (6602) and it seems to be buggy. Surprisingly, when I tried to flash 425, it flashed quite fast, 10 minutes max (since I had on SD card) and without trouble.See, I have CWM 6.0.3 on my Z (6602) and it seems to be buggy. Surprisingly, when I tried to flash 425, it flashed quite fast, 10 minutes max (since I had on SD card) and without trouble.

But more often than not, it gets stuck on wiping cache (though it does fine when its part of factory reset). And when I flash PUREXAudio mod, it flashes fine but then it remains stuck on 'starting apps...' (optimizing apps part works fine). Every time. Cue wipe again and nandroid restore (which doesn't work the first time, stuck on restoring data, but does the second time).

I wonder how many other users are having flashing troubles like these.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Osyx:
There is none, the FXP team are working on it.

---------- Post added at 04:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:40 PM ----------

The cache just seems to get stuck I just noticed when flashing but it just takes an extra while and for the starting apps problem, I'd that with my sgs2 and the cure is to wipe dalvik to force it to reload the apps again.
[Xperia Z Android Development] talhamid:
You mean when it gets stuck on 'starting apps', boot into recovery again, wipe dalvik cache again and reboot? Just confirming. Also, it takes around 90 minutes for a nandroid restore (from internal SD). Is that normal?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Osyx:
No Dalvik cache which is found under Advanced -> Wipe Dalvik cache but otherwise right :) 90 MINUTES holy cow that's not normal it does usually take less than ~560 sec not longer thats around 10 min.
[Xperia Z Android Development] talhamid:
Yes of course, under Advanced. So in essence, wiping Dalvik twice will take care of this? Like everything else with this recovery :). Is switching to TWRP a good idea?

Yes, 90 minutes. I have never waited this long for a restore. Heaven knows - I have only 300-odd apps, maybe that has something to do with it?

By the way, sincerely appreciate your guidance.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Osyx:
Haha yeah it did at least on my previous phone ;) No not on this rom because you'll experience even more problems then, you'll have to wait for [MENTION=2446348]jeroenqui[/MENTION] to implement TWRP into the kernel, I do too like the TWRP better. Not sure, I've 120 user apps I think and that would be around 200 apps including system and it does take a really short time.

EDIT: It just got me I haven't used this recovery for restoring only TWRP and that was on stock rom so I don't know :/
[Xperia Z Android Development] Fasty12:
exists only on the xperia z version cm 10 or cm10 in general?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Osyx:
I think it's snapdragon processors in general by I'm not completely sure. Could be all since my sgs2 had it too.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Osyx:
A bug report when on a call I can't lower the volume, it's stuck at the highest so I need to keep it a bit away from my ear :P when on tablet mode, don't know about the others, and text with someone and then select IME changer in statusbar and then set up Input methods the settings app crashes.
[Xperia Z Android Development] mozzy:
sorry for the noob question but what kernel is recommened for this rom?

could someone please paste the link

kind regards
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
Thanks. Will add to the bug list

You can only use the included kernel at the moment. There are no alternative kernels for cm10.1 yet
[Xperia Z Android Development] mozzy:
and what about recovery?

which is the best recovery to have installed for this rom? or is that bundled within this rom?
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
CWM is bundled with the kernel yes. Soon I will switch to TRWP when I can find some time. Do not install the older version of TRWP, because then it overwrites your kernel to a very old version with many bugs.
[Xperia Z Android Development] mozzy:
just installed the rom and having the baseband unknown problem!

how do i sort this out??
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
Read the first post at the bugs section
[Xperia Z Android Development] vincyi269:
Real smooth !! im loving it too... smoother than a double malt whiskey iced. :good:
[Xperia Z Android Development] banny7000:
During calls my brightness goes to 100%.then I have to manually adjust the slider back down in last two custom builds.forgive me if this is known or a feature or sumat,if this ROM can stay stable I won't be going back to stock
[Xperia Z Android Development] venky716:
Disable notification brightness control form display settings.
[Xperia Z Android Development] jdjta:
As said before the new build feels faster and smoother :highfive:!

I love the new HALO feature: Ninja mode, which hides HALO completely if there are no notifications.

Had one problem using HALO though, when I received calls. First time I received a call everything was fine but HALO gave me a smaller copy of the screen on which you accept/deny the call (like HALO is supposed to do with the apps you open in it).

After this first call I got another call but my screen stays off...so tried calling myself from my home phone and screens stays off again. Had to reboot to fix this so I blacklisted HALO notifications for 'Phone' (in Settings -> Apps -> All). Maybe useful for others using HALO!

The ROM is really getting better with every update, keep up the great work :)!
[Xperia Z Android Development] diabole:
Wonderful build again Mr. J :) but have a wifi problem. Sometimes wifi disconnects and it just saying obtaining ip adress. Only thing that helps is an reboot! (I think this happens when phone goes in to deep sleep) Somebody have any idea or solution?

My wifi problem seems to be solved by itself :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] venky716:
Really excited about the new build.

Want to check if the following bugs have been fixed:

1. Does the custom nav bar icons for recent and back stick or do they revert back

2. Does it lag when toggling auto brightness.

3. Camera black screen glitch present.

Please let me, cos right now I'm on a different ROM so just making sure before doing a clean install.
[Xperia Z Android Development] jdjta:
1. Never done this but I use a theme (Cobalt Inferno) and these buttons stick fine (no clue if they are custom or not).

2. Toggling auto brightness causes some strange behavior...it hides the statusbar and after toggling it dissapears when entering end exiting app drawer every time afterwards.And it's not as smooth as other settings but it does work alright.

3. No black screen for me using the Camera.
[Xperia Z Android Development] banny7000:
Cheers it was disabled but it was on.tick untick sorted it thanks
[Xperia Z Android Development] Juzman:
Good to see. Now just waiting for the kernel. :)

Hi settings app FC in tablet mode is still present in latest custom build?
[Xperia Z Android Development] diabole:
Yes :(
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
We at PAC team have decided to do a bug-fixing streak now.

So, the coming days, no (big) new features will be added but all bugs will be investigated.

If you encounter any bugs, please report them at the top of this thread, and they will hopefully get solved.

Thanks.
[Xperia Z Android Development] lhurtado:
Hi, it's more a performance issue than a bug, but if it is possible, can you check the time camera takes to be ready after it takes a picture? It takes too long! Is the only issue for me right now.

Thanks!

Hey guys, if anyone is experiencing the same?

I've noticed that this began happening on september nightlies and now on the latest custom biuld.

Everything is working fine, but only till first reboot (manual) and after that I end up with a boot loop. Have to install a build and gapps once again to fix it, and the whole situation repeats.

The message is:

That's not a bug.

Just clear data of design Speicher and design app,

[Xperia Z Android Development] ILikeTheWayYouMove2:
I have a small bug sometimes when in a call the other person cannot hear me but I can hear them, a reboot fixes the issue but its a totally random occurrence and I don't know the cause I think its too do with CM as I had the same issue on a old version of carbon but doesn't happen on stock

Never the less I love this ROM and thankyou jeroqui fpor your work

So Jeroen, you have two ROMs for Xperia Z (correct right?). Which one do YOU prefer most?!?? Difficult question perhaps so hope I don't put you on the spot too much :D

Well when I pick up a call, I don't hear the other side for 3 secs. I didn't reboot my phone today. Fladhed the 0916 build in the morning.
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
That's the same for me. After 2-3 seconds it's okay.

Beside some small bugs the new build is running great!

And I think the battery has also improved!

I am using Jeroens latest meow kernel.

Btw. Jeroen, the recovery install picture of your new kernel is a burner. LOL :D

Also true the latest build ROCKS! Battery is also improved. After flashing it drained quickly but few hours later it became stable.

Hmm maybe I'll flash the latest kernel tomorrow ;)

It's just...I'm not a flasholics haha.

I'm not going back to Samsung device.

Sony is back in the game with the big brothers!

Anyways thanks for this build Jeroen!

Can I just flash the zip with the modules or fastboot the kernel alone?

Yea, It's being worked on at the moment and if everything goes well, it should be solved in the next build.

[Xperia Z Android Development] TricE:
it all seems not so fast as expacted. for example: while im running an app, i press the home button, and it takes near 1-2sec. until i am back on homescreen.

or pressing the recents button (right to homebutton) it really takes 2-3sec. until it opens the running app list.

it takes too long!

the used ram is always over 1400MB

taking a picture with HDR option ON, takes near 7sec. without HDR 4sec.
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
I have around 800 MB when just using launcher. (smart launcher) and with 8 apps open in recent apps I have still around 1200.

The long times during opening apps are related to the new nexus animation, I think.

But beside of this, the ROM is super smooth!

800mb free, or 800mb in use?

Wouldn't we have mass battery drain with it, since we are not on amoled display?
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
It has an option called "Pocket mode" which only displays the notifications when you take the device out of your pocket. Also it will use the proximity sensor to detect if something is near, and if it is, it won't turn on the screen. I'm guessing the notification's won't keep the screen on untill you read them, but only keep the screen enabled for some seconds... I will have to verify this though...

And if you don't like this feature, and think battery is far more important, you can always turn it off :)
