So is it possible that trying to turn speaker on screwed everything up?? Because I am not getting audioe even through headset.... I will try a reboot or reflash!!! Any other suggestions...

Btw thanks for the quick reply :)
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
Yes the audio goes completely mute if you turn on the speaker during a call. Reboot and audio should be back again. No need to reflash. And as of now just use the earpiece for calls.

Also, how about adding speaker during calls to the Not Working list in the OP?

Done, is there anything else that should be added there?

Did the modded play store fix your issues?
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
Yep, play store seems stable now :good:

The auto brightness goes either to max or min. Everything else is working a 100%

I have abandoned stock SONY completely :D
[Sony Xperia ZL] shivindera:
Thanks guys...

Btw, anybody found a remote control app for zl?? Except touchsquid one which is for 1k.... I tried using titanium backup to backup and then restore the remote control apps from stock.... But sadly they don't get restored.

Also why did the phone model change from c6502 to c6503??

LASTLY, sexy ROM :)
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
Regardless of whether it works or not, I have never seen such atrocious UX EVER as Touchsquid! If you want to give it a go, they have a gratis demo version and also a full 20 day money back offer on the pro version. And the TiBu method wont work for obvious reasons :rolleyes:

Yeah, for some reason the model shows up as 6503. Even my google play account shows my phone to be 6503.
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
It shows up as 6503 because that's the model number on the cm devices trees. It's actually going to change to 6506 on the next build.
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
So it reports 6503 to the play store too?
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
Yes, I guess it does
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
Is anyone else able to change nav bar color for phone app in tablet mode? It keeps reverting back to black for me. I am able to change nav bar colors for other apps though. Only the phone and the widgetlocker apps dont seem to be taking custom colors
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
yep, just noticed also
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
There's a fix for the auto closing play store and other apps. Also camera focus modes and storage location selection for pictures.
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
New build up. Changelog in third post
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
Had the play store crash on me several times last night. Will check the new build and report
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
For me so far so good. Let me know
[Sony Xperia ZL] shivindera:
When we update an existing ROM... What all do we need to clear like cache dalvik etc.??? If possible put it in the main thread of installation... It would help everyone :D

ALSO - If u need another tester then I am available... Too jobless
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
I was about to suggest this to the OP, but its the standard drill. Upgrading would need you to clear cache and dalvik. If you face any issues, then do a clean install. Report problems if they still exist.

Everyone is a tester. No one has special privileges :o We all report issues to make this ROM better than it already is
[Sony Xperia ZL] shivindera:
Lol sure... No problem!!!

On that note:- The facebook sync of contacts in the facebook app does not work in this ROM due to some google issue as explained here:-

http://niranjanthilak.com/facebook-sync-for-android-ics-devices/

So here is the modified ContactsProvider apk I found for CM 10.1 that allows the sync and goes in system/app, I suggest you put in all your further releases rather than each user performing copy paste on their own and change permissions :D

Here is the link - EDITED - Moved to this post here

I have tested it and it works...

EDIT - For those who use copy paste method, here are the steps (IMPORTANT - Your contacts will get deleted so back them up if not already on the cloud)

- In setting->app->all->contact storage->clear data in orde to clear old database

- Simillarly, clear FB data

- backup ContactsProvider.apk in system/app

- put attached ContactsProvider.apk in system/app overwriting the old one, and change permissions ro rw-r--r--

- restart the phone

- resync contact and FaceBook in accounts and you will get your fb contacts
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
@shivindera does it give you the option to sync with existing contacts already on the phone or will it add every single "friend" to your contact list on your phone?

Has the play store crashing been resolved?
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
I see you have defaulted to tablet mode :D

No crashes so far, but i'll keep checking for the next couple of days. Also, the GSM issue seems to be fixed? Camera icon shows up with a fresh ROM install.

Is it me or doesn't the 'qemu.hw.mainkeys = 1' code line not work anymore? Tried that to remove nav bar, but no change :confused: Its worked on all ROMs on all phones in the past before.

Oh and BTW, when trying to change nav bar color of the phone app, it just doesnt show up in the dialer as I mentioned in the past, however, when you place/ receive a call, the nav bar shows the changed color. Crazy!!

As for FB contact syncing, its always been borked for me. I abandoned it long ago in favor of haxsync. Simple interface and works every single time
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
Yes, haxsync is my choice also. AOSP doesn't support Facebook contact sync.

Why don't you use hybrid properties to remove navbar?
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
Did that, but then the PA Pie pops up automatically and I dont see any option to disable it. I want to use LMT as the PA pie doesn't offer many customization options.
[Sony Xperia ZL] shivindera:
i know haxsync is great but does it sync fb contacts along with their phone numbers??
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
I believe it does numbers, birthdays and events
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
Set the trigger area in pie settings to None. That will take care of that.
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
You sir are pure genius! :highfive:
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
Shouldn't this thread be moved to Original Dev Section? Or am I just being stupid?
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
I guess that's for the mods to decide.
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
Ah! I thought the OP had to decide which sub-forum it belongs to.
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
They're the ones that would have to move it if I started it in the wrong thread
[Sony Xperia ZL] shivindera:
Where did the status bar go?? Why is everything on the navigation bar in the bottom??? how do u get the old status bar back... i tried finding the setting for it but couldn't :( :'(

Also another BUG - in call volume does not work... it is stuck at a particular volume.... any way to fix that??
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
Ha ha! It didn't go anywhere. Apascual89 has the ROM default to tablet interface. Don't you like it better this way? Anyway, to get the standard look back, go to settings>hybrid properties and select stock UI
[Sony Xperia ZL] shivindera:
not exactly... I use pie control... so everything disappears
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
Yes, just change it to stock ui and it'll be back to normal.

Just to report that there has been a lot of movement on the cm side, but I'm going to wait to release more builds until it all gets finished merging.

I have a new build that feels more responsive, but graphical glitches are present when unlocking phone, etc.

The current build out is super stable as a daily. I'll keep you posted.
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
Sony released AOSP build for the Z. Here come the good times :good:
[Sony Xperia ZL] shivindera:
When we getting the updated version of the ROM??? heard that video recording got fixed and also a few other fixes?? i know asking for ETA is not gr8 but stilll... :angel:
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
I'll update tonight, cm is merging a bunch of stuff right now. I'll sync up tonight and upload.
[Sony Xperia ZL] shivindera:
If CM is merging a lot of stuff then let them do it.... then afterwards update the ROM... We can all wait some more for perfection :)
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
That's what I've been doing, you were the one that asked for ETA :D
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
Thats what he meant by sync up :) He said he'll merge the latest changes from CM (which is still in process) and make a new build.

BTW, is anyone else having to make multiple attempts to call someone? The call just disconnects without reason. Same with texts. I need to resend them a couple of times.

[MENTION=3515982]apascual89[/MENTION] Are you going to integrate the new AOKP sidebar? Its quite an awesome feature!
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
AOKP ribbons is being merged into PAC. I'm not having any connection issues.
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
Hmmm, this is getting quite annoying now. i just restored to the .434 US FTF and continue to have signal drops and call/ text issues. Would the basebands of that particular ftf and the stock Indian ftf be different? Sorry for being OT.

Any way to restore the phone to a brand new state? Using Flashtool would mean I would have to select a FTF to flash and I dont have the one that came with the phone initially.
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
I'm not really sure , but there's a few ftf around. You should be she to find the one that came with your phone?
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
:confused:
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
Sorry I was falling asleep when I typed that! Did you resolve you issue?
[Sony Xperia ZL] coilbio:
I cant wait to get this on my ZL

I loved it on my Nexus 4
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
New build is done! Link in the OP
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
Alright, for anyone who is interested, I relocked my BL. Successfully restored to "factory state" using PCC. Curiously however, I dont think it restored to an Indian firmware because the stock apps (read bloatware) that came along with the phone initally arent present. My phone continues to have issues with sending texts and making calls requiring me to try multiple times.

I could no longer bare to subject my phone to the atrocity that is stock SONY :silly: so I said to hell with it and am flashing the new PAC build :good:
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
PAC Team is working on an inverted or dark toggle!
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
Gotta love the darkness!
[Sony Xperia ZL] shivindera:
Maybe your network is giving the problem and not the phone.... Did u try using another sim??
[Sony Xperia ZL] coilbio:
Ive only had phones with completely free hardware and no locks of any kind.

the flashing process was also mostly automated with tools.

tell me if this process is right

well since the bootloader unlock completely wipes your phone, after bootloader unlock:

1st, root it

2nd, install clockworkmod recovery

3rd, fastboot the boot.img file using the comand: "fastboot flash boot boot.img"

4th, reboot into clockwork mod and flash the rom and gapps

Ive never had to flash a boot.img before

I'm used to my nexus 4 when you just unlock the bootloader, flash recovery, then just flash the rom.
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
If I remember correctly, the BL on the N4 was already unlocked?

Anyway, the process is mostly right. However, you need to install recovery first and then root. Also, before flashing boot.img make sure you have the ROM copied to your sd card.
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
After its unlocked just flash the boot.IMG reboot into recovery wipe all and flash.

The ROM is rooted. It includes TWRP recovery not cwm.
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
Oh yeah! Ha ha! Forgot one could do that too :silly:
[Sony Xperia ZL] shivindera:
Hey [MENTION=3515982]apascual89[/MENTION] could you edit and add this in the first page??? I literally had to bang my hand to solve this when the turn off airplane mode way did not work. It would also help others out. :)

For those facing issues with signal not coming after a new flash, reset or after an upgrade:-

METHOD 1(@anirudh412)

- Hold down the power button and bring up the restart menu

- Switch on Airplane Mode, restart your phone.

- Then do the same again, this time disable Airplane mode and restart.

METHOD 2

- Turn off the phone.

- Remove SIM.

- Turn on the phone and wait.

- Turn off again.

- Put the SIM back.

- Turn the phone on again and it works henceforth.

If it still fails:-

Flash the stock roms baseband using flashtool. (Stock ROM's available in Android Dev. Section)
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
I will add a link to your post in the op. I should have an update ready in a couple hours with the new dark toggle included.

[Sony Xperia ZL] widezu69:
So a question regarding the camera, I know that the Sony app does some serious post processing etc is the Camera app in this rom a stock android camera app? Just shed some light on this. I have a C6503 coming and I'm confused.
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
Its actually the CyanogenMod camera. Its based on stock android with added features by the cm team.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=woa1rsatK44&feature=youtube_gdata_player
[Sony Xperia ZL] widezu69:
Thanks for the info. So does video work properly now? Also is this ROM now built on the CM nightlies or the Xperia Project CM versions?
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
No problem, you're welcome. This is built using the cm device and kernel trees, so the same bugs are there. It pretty much combines all of the features from the major ROMs in a cohesive way. You shouldn't find any redundant and/or repetitive settings.

The only major bug is you can't use the speakerphone during calls, if you do, all sound goes away until you reboot.

Video recording works. Not 100% flawless, so you might encounter some issues with it.
[Sony Xperia ZL] widezu69:
Thanks. Final question, just being a noob here. I understand that I would need to flash the kernel (boot.img) before flashing the ROM. Say I wanted to revert back to my stock ZL rom through a nandroid restore, that would cover whole process right? As in rewrite the kernel as well so I would need to reflash the kernel if I wanted to get back to PAC?
[Sony Xperia ZL] coilbio:
This makes sense.

I have time to do this tonight.

By the way, you can flash the boot.img with the flash tool right?

From what I read on the flash tool forum it has basic features at this moment.
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
I haven't done it, but according to the description, yes. Let me know how it goes
[Sony Xperia ZL] coilbio:
Didn't work, it wouldn't recognize the boot.img or something. I flashed it the old fashion way.

Now my radio says its off. I tried the easy methods posted but they didn't work.

Can you tell me how to flash the baseband?

--edit--

nvm, I got it.

now I can play with this rom.
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
Sorry I couldn't answer, fell asleep :D. The baseband issue only happened to me the first time. You should be good now
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
How's it going with the ROM?
[Sony Xperia ZL] coilbio:
Haven't done much with it. I'm heading into finals week so I just flashed it and left it.

Its stable, I haven't had any problems with the ROM.

I might get into it more tomorrow.
[Sony Xperia ZL] shivindera:

[Sony Xperia ZL] AndroidBR:
Thank you!

Sorry for sounding like a broken record, but would you be able to tell me if the speakerphone feature has been fixed/implemented during regular phone calls?

There's a lot of people saying that it is fixed on latest FreeXperia and Official CM 10.1 builds but loudspeaker just won't work properly on my ZL C6503 on neither ROMs... :crying:

Thanks in advance!
[Sony Xperia ZL] shivindera:
Well the speakerphone is not working but the in call volume now works!!! The loudspeaker problem is not only with you but with everybody... The moment it gets fixed the op would implement it in this AWESOME rom :)

[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:
Oh crap, my mess up, no, I'm not switching . I build for other devices and forgot to add twrp back in before building. Github is kinda flaky right now, but I'll put out another build asap. You can use the boot.IMG from the previous build for now.
[Sony Xperia ZL] shivindera:
Thanks for the quick reply :)

Btw, any plans for releasing any other new ROMs??
[Sony Xperia ZL] apascual89:

Its probably more of a limitation of paranoid, but Is there a way to mod/adjust the number of soft keys while in tablet UI? I've tried to change it to 2 buttons with home key and back key reversed.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] rene_canlas:
Just do a soft-reset to get rid of the stuck "sms sent" notification.

This happens when you have SPB Pocket Plus installed and set to close applications when you click on the 'x' symbol. If you close the inbox app before the "sms sent" notification goes away, then the notification icon (envelope) gets stuck.

You have two choices:

a) Remove SPB Pocket Plus or set it so that it does not close apps when you click on the 'x' symbol, or;

b) Wait for the "sms sent" notification to disappear before closing the inbox app.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] wayno:
Possible fix...

Hi,

I'm using an XDA 1 but should be the same fix for you luck XDA2 people...

Start -> Settings -> System -> Pocket Plus.

Highlight Feature "Close Button" then click "Feature Options".

Click on "Programs to Minimize".

Add "inbox" to the list and hopefully that will fix your problems... (it did for me anyway!)

Enjoy! :D
