i have tried to flash 1021 2 times and everything when fine but when it is loading it showing a light blue screen with rainbow colour line.i have factory reset and flash the gapps.i have now revert back to 1004 custom build.
[Xperia Z Android Development] vincyi269:
I'm not so keen about wiping data on my phone either :( i'd avoid it at all cost if possible or just not update my pac from now on. lol
[Xperia Z Android Development] diabole:
No problem, let's wipe :) It just take 5 minutes to restore with titanium backup ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] jdjta:
Do you make a backup of all system data and apps or just user apps? I would say restoring system data will create FC's among other problems because of the changes in framework? (Otherwise I don't see the point of wiping it in the first place :confused:)
[Xperia Z Android Development] diabole:
You are so right :) I just backup user apps. System things take maybe 10 minutes to recreate :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
Guys, I don't want to sound like I'm making excuses, but the build from yesterday had some small errors I had to correct.

Since my buildserver is down currently, I'm not sure if I can make the new build today...

Let me promise this: I will build and release it as soon as possible and keep you guys updated about the situation :)

I want to apologize to all your F5 keys.. I hope they can forgive me :P
[Xperia Z Android Development] diabole:
No problems at all man :)

Hi everyone. I have a fiew questions. In the OP in Known bugs there's a info about not working headphones. Does this bug still exist? And does BT audio streaming work on this ROM?

[Xperia Z Android Development] Fisken:
Idk about headphones, but i use BT audio streaming every day and it's works flawlessly
[Xperia Z Android Development] webfreak1364:
Used both with 1013 custom and its working.
[Xperia Z Android Development] thx84:
I cannot answer calls when the headphones are plugged in. I'm currently using the custom build from October 13th.

Headphones with mic are working. Still don't understand why it is so hard to fix this....

nobody has a problem with the proximity sensor during a call?
[Xperia Z Android Development] 6961785:
Works fine with me on custom build released on October 13th.
[Xperia Z Android Development] alessa:
me it was almost every call, when I speak for more than 30 seconds the screen goes blank and I'm forced to press power to turn on the screen :(
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
It's the same for me. Thought it was an issue of gravity screen, that is detecting pocket mode by mistake!?

Gesendet von meinem C6603 mit Tapatalk
[Xperia Z Android Development] alessa:
and how to turn off pocket mode?
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
If you use gravity screen, just turn it off.

Otherwise I also don't know where the problem comes from.

Has anyone noticed that the ROM seems to become increasingly unstable the longer it is s used without a re flash? I've had it installed for a few weeks now and I'm getting screen freezes and random reboots a few times a day now.
[Xperia Z Android Development] guinhill:
I have similar problems right now. If the device has been idle for an hour or so the touchscreen does not respond after waking up. Only the buttons work.

Have to reboot to get the screen to work again.

Hanging on untill next :P custom build. tough the need to wipe before hand is getting bigger.
[Xperia Z Android Development] ianrobbie:
The full wipe before refresh thing is worrying me. I've spent ages trawling through all the settings getting the Navbar and Status Bar transparencies and colours right and now I'll have to do it all again!

Anybody know of anyway to backup your settings?
[Xperia Z Android Development] FateNozomi:
You can backup the settings in Paranoid Android but i'm not sure where the backup file is created in your internal storage for you to save it somewhere else.
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
It's save. I had done a full wipe before and the settings get restored automatically after some reboots! But I am using the donate version, don't know if there is any difference to the standard one.

Gesendet von meinem C6603 mit Tapatalk
[Xperia Z Android Development] Bloch_hd2:
The pa backup is stored in internal storage, so as long the interval storage does not get wiped then the backup is fine :) conclusion: the pa backup will survive a full wipe as long one doesn't wipe internal storage (not part of a full wipe)

eagerly waiting for the new custom build !! :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] dexteristheshiz:
Been using this ROM for months now but can't handle it since the last few updates. I can't get this ****ty tap-to-wake screen thing to turn off, results in my phone unlocking and destroying my battery. I turn it off, then next time I reboot (at least once a day because it's so unstable) it's back on again. Can't handle it any more, anything else I should switch to?
[Xperia Z Android Development] muddasir121:
use latest nightly with full wipe and dont flash meow kernel on it

---------- Post added at 09:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:40 AM ----------

latest nightly has almost no bug
[Xperia Z Android Development] ianrobbie:
If you've downloaded Trickster MOD from the Play Store to switch it off, then there is an option in the settings for "Set on Boot". Enable this and it'll stay off when you reboot your phone.

Quick question. Anyone having trouble accessing the Service Menu?

Every time I enter *#*#7378423#*#* the numbers disappear and the dialler just sits waiting for another number. Is there another way to access it?
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
The service menu is only for stock roms

[Xperia Z Android Development] ianrobbie:
Any news on the new Custom Build? I've had 12 reboots today due to a freezing home screen.

How are the new nightlies? Are they stable?

I take it I just flash the nightly then flash the Meow kernel in recovery? (do I need to allow the phone to restart in between?)

I'm still on 1004 Custom and it works flawlessly.

No reboots and no crashes whatsoever. Also great battery life and absolutley smooth.

It might be a solution for some of you guys to just go back to that build until we have confirmed bug fixes for the reported issues.

I'm positive jeroenqui will figure it out :) be patient guys
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
There are some problems preventing us to successful and good working builds at the moment. The PAC team is working hard to solve this. We're already very close to a solution, so it won't be long anymore. When it's fixed I'll release a new custom build and a new version of MEOW-kernel...
[Xperia Z Android Development] alessa:
great, try to see the concern of the proximity sensor.
[Xperia Z Android Development] golfgtiedition30:
Don't rush it take your time. Do not feal under any pressure to release your build until YOU feal it is right.

Okay folks, the new custom build is in test now.. Everything seems fine.. Testing a bit more and then it will be posted within 2-3 hours...

Of course this will only happen if the MEOW approves it aswell... It's looking at it now:

Yeah, that's why I'm asking if there's workaround on dirty flash. Then we have to clean flash at the moment to make it work.

The time consuming part is re-install our apps :p

Anyhow the latest rom should be the best, so.. let's give it a try.

I can confirm that phone call is working if you clean install (wipe everything, except your sdcard of course :D)

---------- Post added at 09:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:57 AM ----------

yes,but this is not a new feature in nightly.i enable it in latest nightly,after dirty flash 1027build,the phone.apk FC,when i disable it,all right now.

maybe you could try wipe before flash this build.
[Xperia Z Android Development] joelky:
still no luck on phone fc, I just tried clear all google apps, phone, phonebook's storage and user data then install rom and gapp again, when I dial a number I saw Game Over screen :eek:

I wiped EVERYTHING and install rom and gapp = phone fc

Without gapp = OK

With gapps without ticking restore in google wizard = OK

ticking restore in google wizard = phone fc

im using gapp 0813

For those having a problem with the phone force closing on incoming call/dial out:

I believe the problem is "PAC in Black". Try turning it off and see if it is fixed.

I've tested this on both a dirty flash and a full wipe and can consistently reproduce. PIB on = phone force close, PIB off = works normally.
[Xperia Z Android Development] chienline:
Yes, confirming that this is so true. PAC in Black force close the phone dialer.

Unfortunately I have wipes and re-install all my apps :laugh:

Thnx!
[Xperia Z Android Development] [-Amrish-]:
All good for now!!

Just want to say to others who are still on

custom 0916

, you can perform a

dirty flash

to the latest custom build (1027).

No any errors found...yet (pac in black is disabled by default). And no I won't turn it on to get fc's...I'm not that stupid :p

Anyways, I've downloaded trickster mod to disable the screen wake options (all of them) + to set it as boot...just for sure.

Euhm can't find it? Any help would be appreciated :D

Oh and [MENTION=2446348]jeroenqui[/MENTION] mate.....

You know what you are? A LEGEND haha :good:

I feel and see the difference between the 0916 and 1027 CB!!! Amazing improvement(s) mate...really impressive!

Well done!

If it is already ticked, untick it and tick it again. You need to do this everytime you reboot.

Haven't tested the brightness slider. Then the systemui fc must be on my phone as well.

I'm on the latest custom 1027 with a clean installation and whenever I open gallery my phone freezes without any errors I have to hard reset all the time
[Xperia Z Android Development] [-Amrish-]:
@ All,

You can perform dirty flash by flashing the new one over your old PAC release.

No any wipe required...unless you get lots of fc's or an unstable system. Then it's necessary to wipe/ to do a clean install.

As long your phone is functional, do not wipe! (Latest custom build 1027)

For all the others who gets a phone.apk FC...simply disable

PAC in black

which is the cause of the phone.apk fc! For all who wiped their phone because of this...a pity. Hope you all have a backup. So do not wipe...just disable it.

Also the brightness slider for statusbar (in settings) has a bug which crashes the System UI. This won't get solved after a clean install (confirmed by BeDesires).

So DONT get confused or scared. Take a deep breath and read this...or get a coffee instead :silly:

Also sorry to text like this big....it's just no one reads the pages back and keep saying phone.apk gets a fc :confused:
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
Thank you for the usefull post!

Checked your carrier settings? Fixed permissions? This could be the problem.

And yes some people are facing different issues.

Thats why I said "if it doesn't function the way it has to be then do a clean install ;)

Anyways I came from 0916 cb. Pac in black was disabled by default. Flashed to the latest one and everything went well.
