screen flicker problem solved in 0831 :good:

Really? ;)

I will try it! Thanks.

No much flickering Screen bug with the last built.

To resolve them I used this post.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1904827

Look working great for the moment. :good:

This last built is greatest! (the best of 4.3 for me).

No Fc, no reboot!!
[Xperia Z Android Development] aashgaur:
confirmed. screen flickering is gone in latest nightly !! great work :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] vincyi269:
Awesome build update!! :laugh: :good:
[Xperia Z Android Development] leongzxc:
anyone having FC while choosing ringtones/notifications?

i dirty flash from 0824 to 0831, both on stock CM kernel (unless 0831 is already on MEOW by default)

if no one has issues then i guess i'll just give it a full wipe.
[Xperia Z Android Development] gregland:
No problem for me choosing ringtones
[Xperia Z Android Development] leongzxc:
ok, a full wipe it is :)

thanks for letting me know!
[Xperia Z Android Development] gregland:
Yes, full wipe (factory reset)
[Xperia Z Android Development] Pondy:
I installed the latest nightly a few hours ago, seems very nice so far.

Smooth, no screen flicker.

Awesome :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
Latest nightly runs smooth but drains my battery like hell.

Sadly it`s still flickering for me, but I think this is related to swiftkey keyboard.
[Xperia Z Android Development] gregland:
the same for me...

I solved flickering problem using this post :

[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
I think the latest nigthly is really unstable. I got several fc`s in settings and some apps.

Will try this out! Thanks for the hint!
[Xperia Z Android Development] gregland:
No Fc for me for the moment, no flickering with the tweak, but battery drain.

3108 nightly was more stable for me.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Pondy:
I'm using Swype - no flicker. Will keep an eye on battery . Not a single fc yet.
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
Theme engine and display settings are force closing all the the time. Hopefully a new build will be up this evening.
[Xperia Z Android Development] gregland:
Someone use MEOW kernel or nightly kernel? (I use meow)
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
MEOW
[Xperia Z Android Development] Destroyedbeauty:
This is because something is keeping the phone awake at lowest cpu frequency - no matter what you do. Download CPU Spy and leave the phone with screen-off 15-20 minutes and you'll see.

Don't know if it kernel or ROM related though.. :/
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
I just flashed the CM kernel to test, but the fc`s still happen.

Lets see how the battery life goes with CM kernel.

Edit: You`re right. No deep sleep here, even with CM kernel!
[Xperia Z Android Development] golfgtiedition30:
I have stock Rom installed rooted with dual recovery.

I want to unlock bootloader and flash this.

Are the correct install steps for me...

Do all wipes factory reset,flash gasps,reboot.

Or do I need to fastboot flash the boot img first then install Rom.

I'm a bit.confused.

Sent from my Zed
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
If you have a recovery installed you should be fine with just doing a full wipe, flashing the rom, gapps and reboot.

But I dont remenber, if the recovery is still there after unlocking the device.

In this case you have to fastboot flash the boot.img of the rom first and then follow the steps.
[Xperia Z Android Development] venky716:
Both nightlies for 1st and 2nd show 'failed' in their build logs.

I'm curious how come they've uploaded the nightly for 1st if it failed ?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Juzman:
Works fine here on 20130901 + meow kernel.
[Xperia Z Android Development] golfgtiedition30:
Thanks for your reply.

I think to be safe then I will first flash boot img then install.

On nightly 0831 trebuchet seems to lose its data all the time. If you rearrange application icons, then change some settings that require trebuchet to restart then all icon placement changes will be lost.

Has anyone encountered this?

EDIT: Random reboots are a given at this stage.

[Xperia Z Android Development] Destroyedbeauty:
That's why I abandoned the PAC 4.3 ROMS and back on latest stable 4.2.2 instead. Battery life ftw!
[Xperia Z Android Development] gregland:
I just add them with kernel tuner

No battery drain for me with 0831 (4.3)
[Xperia Z Android Development] Destroyedbeauty:
Strange.. On every PAC ROM 4.3, battery drained like crazy for me. 4% in 7 minutes with screen-off. No deep sleep, just active at the 192 Mhz - 486 Mhz frequencies.. (n)
[Xperia Z Android Development] jdjta:
I just changed the line debug.composition.type from 'dyn' to 'gpu' in build.prop and screen flickering is gone for now in 0901 nightly...didn't notice any battery drain till now in 4.3 with MEOW-kernel.

Still running 826 here and everything is running flawless =p I plan to update again in a month or so, don't enjoy rebuilding my little UCCW setup too often.. no screen flickers or abnormal battery drain to be seen, <3 PAC 4.3
[Xperia Z Android Development] Juzman:
I don't know why others are getting abnormal battery drain either. I'm running latest 20130901 nightly. Battery is @ 52% and if I go into the Battery, says 21h 16m 47s on battery, Screen only at 2h 35m 41s but I don't use the phone that often. Nothing abnormal to report.
[Xperia Z Android Development] bmwessen:
hey guys sorry for the stupid question where is the menue to adjust the gridsize of the homescreen or launcher? thought i saw such menue but now i do not find it

.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Sunfl4sh:
settings (pac-man) --> hybrid properties --> apps --> trebuchet

or (depends on what you exactly mean)

settings (pac-man) --> homescreen --> Grid Size

:)

Hope I can help
[Xperia Z Android Development] jdjta:
You can change this under Settings -> PAC-man -> Home screen -> Start screen (not sure about the translation but it's the first option) -> Grid size.

Edit: LOL, just to late...
[Xperia Z Android Development] venky716:
?

Busybox still not working, tried uninstall and install still no use.

Any suggestions ? Other than reflashing the rom .
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
Hi PAC family! I'm back from vacation! Had an amazing time! I will be preparing a new custom build the coming day. I will release a new build with meow kernel and TWRP recovery included today or tomorrow with a lot of new stuff (since the last custom build) for which you nightlies users already have seen some! It was nice to have some time off and enjoy the sun, but now I'm very eager to work on my baby PAC for yuga again!
[Xperia Z Android Development] joejoe23:
Sorry off topic but i just realised tanoxx havent been here for awhile and just noticed that he already went to s4. Man, i miss his daily reports of the rom lol. He abandoned his beloved baby hahaha.
[Xperia Z Android Development] rustybathtub:
I've noticed that this Rom doesn't have deep sleep, or is it only me? I'm on the 0831 nighty.

And also, how does one go about changing the position of the unlock button on the lock screen? I like it on the bottom instead of the right. Many thanks.

Hey guys. Finally arrived from pac xs on pac xz :o using latest 0109 build and its quite awesome!

Thanks for the hard work ;) !

First thing setting a background for notification won't work :-/ any hints for that?!

And Is it possible to change navbar in landscape mode to the right side?

Thanks again :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] BoneMo:
not sure...but navbar at bottom means you are in phablet mode.... on the right side is in phone mode

Just installed pac rom.....I have to say this rom is just awesome on the XZ.

It doesn't need to be hard coded, we can apply it in setting.

Download the animation zip file.

Settings >> PAC-Man >> General UI >> Custom boot animation

Choose your animation zip file.

I have never tried it myself but I just see it in setting :D

Solved the 2g-2g issue !! (Tasker related )

I get this huge lag and System UI crashes when toggling 2g-3g.

Anyone has this problem?

Also any help on the busybox problem would be great.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Panaroma:
Not for me. Im on nightly 0109 and never had an issue.

Do you did a clean installation?
[Xperia Z Android Development] dekadence_:
I can't find where to edit my CallerID settings. It's not where it usually is on the ROMs I've tried :/

Also, when trying to select a carrier, it won't let me. The right one is selected, so I can still make calls, but would be nice to be able to change.

Anyone got any tips?

Phone/settings/additional settings / caller id

---------- Post added at 06:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:58 PM ----------

No problem with toggling between 2g and 3g only with toggling between auto and manual brightness.

Only thing that I know about busybox is that it should be under system/xbin maybe move that file and try to install again
[Xperia Z Android Development] xachiel:
no settings for autohide navibar??
[Xperia Z Android Development] XDA.AGM:
:D yep .... & soon some new options/features ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] vincyi269:
I love the new shortcuts in the recent apps menu! yuga nightly0904 :good::highfive:
[Xperia Z Android Development] venky716:
Yup thats the thing i have a tasker profile set up to turn auto brightness on when switching to 3g that's the thing causing the problem.

A feature to manually hide status bar on swiping up on status bar would be great like in Carbon rom. :fingers-crossed:
[Xperia Z Android Development] shahmirzadi11:
everything seems to be working fine, except I have no sound when making or recieving calls ....?
[Xperia Z Android Development] xachiel:
very nice. waiting for this!! thanks!
[Xperia Z Android Development] jdjta:
It's a nice feature but I don't think there are any options to change the apps (for instance I'm using a different clock app).

Another problem I hope will be resolved in next builds is changing themes. Theme chooser force closes unfortunately :(.
[Xperia Z Android Development] welshlad:
What do you think this this is, a phone or something?!! :p
[Xperia Z Android Development] XDA.AGM:
I no have these bugs with nightly 0904 .

I use themechooser without any FC only try one theme but.....:confused:

Yep also the new appbar with folders !! :D

the only thing I found is when you have activated "Auto hide status bar" & pie , I can´t show the status bar...would be good to do that .... :)

Thanksss all members of PAC-TEAM !!
[Xperia Z Android Development] jdjta:
It seems this problem started earlier. Can't change themes in 0109 backup either...Tried wiping data, system and re-install but no luck. I'll revert back to an older backup (I saved all my pac backups till now :silly:) and see if this fixes it...

Edit: I restored my backup of 2608 nightly and there I can use Settings -> PAC -> Themes to change themes. Then I do a dirty flash of 0904 but then themes option gets broken (FC when I try to start it) :S.

Something else: When I'm on 0904 nightly my USB connection to my pc is very problematic. I'm not able to make a solid connection, it's very slow and fails to copy larger files (like backups). I'll need to get back to 2608 for now I'm afraid...
[Xperia Z Android Development] vincyi269:
It's in settings> appbar :silly: there, you can change the apps you want
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
Just clear the data and cache of the two apps regarding theme engine (I don't remember the names). After that it worked again for me on 0901.
[Xperia Z Android Development] jdjta:
Thanks, maybe I'm stupid but I only see one app concerning themes: Themechooser, which is only 32 kb in size with 12 kb of cache and no data. It's impossible to wipe this cache and there's no data to be wiped :confused:?
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
It should be something like theme memory. In German it's called design speicher.
[Xperia Z Android Development] didicola:
my friend can you plz import philz recovery to xperia z

at the thread of philz at the second post there are some instruction of things to be made to have a working recovery by philz

[Xperia Z Android Development] jdjta:
You're the man of the match, working again :D! It's called 'provider thema's' in dutch (provider themes in english?)!

Sorry to bother you again but I meant the shortcuts in recent applications, not the app bar...
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
Sorry guys, having a small problem with TWRP.. Can not release a new update today..

I tried this, said couldn't read the zip file. So just flashed it via CWM.
[Xperia Z Android Development] dekadence_:
Yeah, that option's not there. I'm wondering if it has something to do with that carrier bug ..
[Xperia Z Android Development] Fasty12:
Dont know what im doing wrong

Ive been using this rom since april and for the life of me i cannt figure out why switching between apps take so long. When i press the multitask button it takes 1-2 seconds for the app to minimize to the multitasking window. No other rom i tried have this problem, be it stock, aosp, cm or aokp. I really want to use this rom but the slow response time has me duped. I tried switching to stock ui dpi but nothing works
[Xperia Z Android Development] liliha:
No such problems here on either 4.2 or 4.3 based PAC .. does this happen under a clean flash with no other apps running?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Fasty12:
Yep

Yep factory reset, wipe cache, flash rom, flash gapps. Its just isnt as snappy as other roms. I mean its smooth but multitasking and switching between apps take a fair bit longer
[Xperia Z Android Development] ckyy:
I can confirm this. This has happened on pretty much all 4.2 / 4.3 CM Based Roms. BUT, on this rom is way worse than on others.
[Xperia Z Android Development] EmeraldTimer:
Why when I take a picture with focal it appears Grey?
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
I have never really looked at it, because I didn't know it was slow. I never had a device where it was faster. I will look into it and see what I can do about it.
[Xperia Z Android Development] darebak666:
Is there possibility to include in this rom Location based wifi? I used this feature on my previous Xperia Arc S and it was so perfect...
[Xperia Z Android Development] jdjta:
Maybe this works for you: http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...canning-unless-you-find-the-special-checkbox/ ?
[Xperia Z Android Development] chienline:
The process is incomplete. It takes about 3-4 seconds to complete the photo, more over on high resolution.

There is a left swipe animation when it is complete, and you can see the view finder shown on your screen :)

But I think Focal is not fully stable yet on this rom. Sometimes the flash is not working and I should restart the app to make it works
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
Latest nightly runs really smooth and no probs so far! :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] vincyi269:
does anyone face any battery issues using nova launcher with the current latest nightly build? :confused:
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:

What's the issue? Does it drain the battery? How do you know?
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
Great! The boss is back in town. :) Can't wait for the new release!

I am also facing heavy battery drain with the latest nightly and meow kernel, but I don't know what that causes.
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
Try to use better battery stats to see what's causing it..
[Xperia Z Android Development] vincyi269:
:( was wondering if it drains battery still. Seems to kill my battery on the previous version of nightly.. just want to comfirm before using :silly: anyways, I got over it and installed it on nightly0905.. battery is all good. :victory:
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
Okay, let me know! Also, test the newest custom build I will release in a few, and see if it still occurs then...
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
I do. The process is power management service wakelock. But I don't know where it is related to.

Do i have to Factory reset or a dirty flash will do ?

Also is meow kernel included ?
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
Dirty flash is ok. Yes, MEOW kernel is included.
[Xperia Z Android Development] xachiel:
nice MEOW kernel is included now. no need to flash it via fastboot. btw your your MEOW kernel is good with minimum cpu load. wish you add some high frequency 1.6 to 1.8ghz.. :)

May I know if the wifi issues been fixed on the new custom build? :).

The wifi problem before this was after putting the device to sleep, the wifi can't seem to detect any signal upon waking it up

After couple of hours of sleep ofcuz..

I had to go back go stock rom as I need the wifi working properly. But if there's no longer any wifi issues, I might give it another go! :D.

Thanks!
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
Great update jeroen! And TWRP is back!

Thanks a lot!

But could it be that the theme engine is not working properly!?

My spinners are not themed as they should.

Can someone confirm!?
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
Over clock will be added some time when I manage to add it. It has become a bit harder since the latest rebase.

This was a rare problem with some routers. I had this issue too. For me it is fixed since the newest wifi drivers (which are included in this build)

Might be a problem because we recently switched theme engine. Please report it as a bug at the top of the page. Thanks.
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
Okay will do this tomorrow. But now it's time for bed! ;)

Really smooth update jeroen. Thanks for your hard work!
