Or is smaller and black navbar not compatibel with this rom?
[Xperia Z Android Development] zanndoth:
Thanx man!

I've always been wondering why you haven't published a ROM for Z yet, and have always been waiting. Your ROMs always have the best battery performance. As they said, good things are worth the wait. And I'm glad I did. :laugh:

Does this ROM swap External SD for Internal SD? If this option can be made available, it would really be great! If not, I'll just install it separately. It's kinda irritating having to move everything you download to the external SD every single time. :p

Other wish list: PureXAudio, Auto-rotate Homescreen.

Thanx again!

Hi, thanks for your work on this amazing ROM -

- is there any possibility to turn off landscape lockscreen? it's annoying when you pull the phone out of your pocket..
[Xperia Z Android Development] dyepnoodle:
This rom has hiccups, did a clean install. Reverting back to previous rom im using. Installed this before (v3) and its very smooth, i think that is because i was using a custom kernel that time

waiting for doom to release a kernel based on 4.2 source since sony has release the source already so i can flash this rom again. Btw, great work niaboc!
[Xperia Z Android Development] Phat-T:
Which version are you using? v4 doesn't have lockscreen rotation anymore

- up

on V3 - abd I have not seen info that it was removed in changelog. Thanks for a confirmation ->starting to upgrade;)

Do I have to use dual recovery? or can I just flash cwm and flash it through that?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Richy99:
should be able to flash via CWM without the need for the dual recovery
[Xperia Z Android Development] [-Amrish-]:
And what about TWRP recovery? Also possible with it? Cuz if I'm not wrong there's an twrp.apk to install the recovery.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Richy99:
flashed this rom earlier all is working ok... except now I have lost recovery and when reinstalling the 2.5beta dual recovery, it no longer boots into recovery upon install and thus recovery is lost

I had a similar issue when I forgot yo flash the recovery zip after flashing the Rom.

Open the flashable file for the dual recovery using any file management application such as ES explorer extract and copy the files under the system folder and paste them under the respective folders under device /system. Change permissions of the copied files to rwx for user owner and other. Reboot and you should get the green led to go into either cwm or twrp

I didn't read properly is all, forgot to flash the recovery zip file as op states

when you port Honami things... please leave out the bold clock - it's very ugly

you must download both files in the order that you read them. Here's a tip: rename the file when the download is finished so you won't be confused. The files are named almost identically so I recommend you rename it first before doing anything else because you might flash the wrong zip

Ok thank you two for your comments. If things go wrong I will do like you said.

For now, I think I've pointed out the problem with my Sd. it appears taht the permissions for the SD are ---r-xr-x... it may be why I can't delete a file, or copy one or do anything with it... Is there a way to fix the permissions of the SD? Ican't do it with Root Explorer as it says it is unable to change permissions as the SD is read only... Am I totally f**ked up and need to format the SD?

I can not format the SD in windows... I don't know why, but this silly machine say it's unable to format the SD... I'm going crazy...

When is the estimated time for v5 Honami? I'm eager to this version. Your Ultra Honami is really nice but in my point of view, it is too white for me
