So this basically is the ultra edition but themed black right? Anything different? I would love the black though, more classy
[Xperia Z Android Development] Kocane:
Is it just me or does it look kinda.. browny?

[Xperia Z Android Development] Kocane:
How dependant are these black APKs (like SemcEmail, Phonebook and so) on the modified framework-res.apk? Can I install them over my install of the regular ExistenZ ROM? (Meaning, pushing each individual APK that I want "blackified" thru adb)
[Xperia Z Android Development] niaboc79:
All is inside each apps ;)

Parts related to framework-res are volume, permissions and power menu icons.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Rajeev:
[MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION] bro

Anyway to get a normal framework-res.apk ( i mean without honami framework all over the phone) as an add-on.? A humble request.. Tomorrow will download Blacky... Ur rom is completely stock rom. Cool that. But if u release a normal Framework-res.apk as an add-on means i wil b 100% happy..
[Xperia Z Android Development] elias234:

Can i flash it over the ultra? And do i need to wipe cache and dalvik
[Xperia Z Android Development] elias234:
read full op , it is stated that u can , and yes u need to wipe cache and dalvik
[Xperia Z Android Development] AnubisNefer:
I came from another 4.2.2. rom (bootloader unlocked) and did the following....

Asuming you already have a backup:

1. reboot to recovery

2. wipe dalvik, cache and data

3. flash rom

4. flash superuserfix

5. turn off phone

6. flash stripped ftf (kernel/baseband)

7. let it boot (this takes a while, it will look like its in a bootloop)

And you're good to go. All of which is mentioned in the OP.
[Xperia Z Android Development] troyism:
well actually no; it always states to flash the current firmware in full; re-root, install recovery etc

but thank you for the answer

I performed the same steps as you to install the new v5 Black Edition because I came from the Ultra Edition v5 eXistenZ but i also had force closes. I went to install the Rom doing Wipe Data, Cache and Dalvik Cache, and now works perfectly.

Niaboc, congratulations for this great rom. Very smooth and nice with the black color. :good:

Thanks.

[Xperia Z Android Development] Lawliet918:
so does that mean you had to re-install all your apps again? darn. i tried to check into it and, apparently, you need to clear the cache and wipe the data of xposed installer. after that, do another reboot. walkman should be working. and other apps force closing, for that matter. :o
[Xperia Z Android Development] The Big Z:
Thanks for your help but it's done. I wish I had read before but nothing happens because I'm used to change rom and re-install all my apps again.

Thank you again.

[Xperia Z Android Development] Rajeev:
Ofcource... I hav a lot of lags in ES file explorer, root explorer and some other third party apps while scrolling. Its because of the Honami framework All over the Rom. I am not complaining.. But its better for me if u release a Normal framework-res.apk as an add-on. Always respect ur works.. But some times root explore makes me very angry... Pls help...
[Xperia Z Android Development] totzkitotz:
Ive flashed the Black edition now..and its freaking awesome sir :good: :highfive:

[Xperia Z Android Development] mohdsubaie:

[Xperia Z Android Development] Akil97:
did you wipe Before flashing or after flashing rom ? Or Try reflashing the rom Wipe Data dalvik then flash rom

Just give it a try
[Xperia Z Android Development] sensei_sai:
Hi. just before flashing, may I ask a simple question. t may be obvious, but not for me :D

I've got already the eXistenZ V5 white on my Z. If I flash this black one, and wipe cache and dalvik, will I loose my apps and config? Or this happens only when wipping datas?

Thnaks for reply
[Xperia Z Android Development] nielneal:
no you will not loose any data so dont worry just wipe cache and dalvik cache and when you wipe data everything will be wipe all data else it wont

and do backup before flashing in case anything goes wrong

cheerz;)

Hi guyz and [MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION]

Im not using this rom (not because i dont like it just because prefer aosp roms :p but still thanks for this work) but one of my users told me on last build v5 he has z1 white settings/ backgrounds menu and he prefer black one from previous build, so my question is: is it possible to replace framework res.apk with obviously right perm. from v4 to v5, and if yes...someone please could provide it? or i just have to download rom and extract it?

Thanks a lot by advance for answers ;)

Message Volume

First off, thanks Niaboc79 for a great ROM. Diggin all the black! I came from Nut's 4.3 ROM (wiped dalvik and cache) and everything is working great and smooth on my C6606.

Not sure if anything can be done about this, but noticed when using GravityBox there seems to be some interference with the volumes.

If I turn it to vibrate when volumes are expanded it will just vibrate as it should, but turning it up one notch results in full volume. I disabled GB and volumes worked as they should.

Is there a system file I could remove/freeze with Titanium to avoid this when using GravityBox or is this just something baked into ROM? Either way I can deal with it and will continue to enjoy your work!
[Xperia Z Android Development] Rajeev:
Yea. I can See the difference.. But still i need the normal framework-res.apk as an add-on... Plssss plsss plsss. " Without Honami Framework every where in rom... " A humble request...

Is anyone here from INDIA and using AIRTEL sim? If yes means pls call to ur customer care number. 121 or 198. Then it will ask for press 1 for blah press 2 for blah press 3 for blah.. Press any number.. Its working or not? Pls let me know. Because mine is not working. Some one pls...??

Thank you for this rom, it's buttery smooth.

But I have a question, hope you know the answer...

Do you know why my battery percentage doesn't show?

EDIT: NEVERMIND

I completely forgot gravitybox ;)

Stupid me.

I did a clean install. I also have a huge mediaserver usage while I only played Spotify for an hour.

My battery doesn't last that long since the 100 %

The phone is just 12 hours on and my battery is very low.

Wifi: 8 hours

Screentime: 1 hour 10 min.

Autosync for Gmail on.

But I have a little question for [MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION] and all of you :o : Does anyone know if there is a custom version of this beautifull launcher honami ?

I mean a version that allows to put 5 icons per row for example ...? Or maybe there is a kind of mod exist to add this? It will be nice :good:

Thanks
[Xperia Z Android Development] AnubisNefer:
Thanks for answering, but that's not really an answer which gets me further.

(beetje kort door de bocht om het niet gerelateerd aan rom te wijten)

I did a fresh install and wipe all data, cache etc.

And after 1 day use, I don't even make it through the day?

I just charged it to 100% about 20 minutes ago and battery dropped 8 %.

Do you recommend anything?

A fresh install? Greenify? Wakelock?

You can't just say to every post which concerns battery drops, "its not rom related"

I appreciate your work, I really do and I would like to keep on using your rom, but with only 14 hours on a full battery, this is a no go.

Other roms on this forum I get through a day easily.

Typing this now, it dropped till 91%.

[Xperia Z Android Development] bor3d2damax:
[MENTION=4623226]AnubisNefer[/MENTION] 14 hours seem to be fine. You have to let the rom sit in for a day or two. Also make sure you don't have things in the background running such as Sync, Google Location services. Run greenify and kill those other apps that run in the background. Play around with the CPU and Governor settings just dont set them too low.

[Xperia Z Android Development] AnubisNefer:
Thank you!

I'll do that. It's just that I don't use the phone different and my feeling is that with this rom I have a shorter batterycycle.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Teo032:
Yeah maybe let it adjust a couple days. Could be a rogue app constantly running. In defense to this Rom, my battery has been stellar. I'm not sure what it is but prior to this running v4 other Roms including aosp typed ones, my battery life was so so. I would say "average". Now with the first v5 build, my battery life has been amazing. I'm not exaggerating, I've been using Androids for a long time and i have to say it's quite impressive from what it was stock to now. I kind of don't want to update it to the latest release because it's pretty darn good right now.

Tl;dr: my battery life is great on this Rom.
[Xperia Z Android Development] AnubisNefer:
Too long, but I read it all ;)

I guess I'll let it sit. It's just that I didn't install any other apps or whatsoever. Just did a fresh install and let my Gmail account sync everything, including my apps.

I didn't do anything else with it and then the first day, I didn't even make it through the day.

It said 14 hours and that's without even using it!

So, that made me worried. Apps that kill processes and all that I don't even use.

Will let it sit. Thank you for your comment.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Teo032:
Hmm try another fresh install? Maybe use some battery stat app to see what's running in the background. Although your Google account freshly restored your previous apps, a setting you applied before that helped battery life is maybe no longer set.

I'll stop cluttering the thread about battery life now, but there are many threads that could help you.

Same on BT-Headset.

On Ultra Edition works fine!

Second: Flash Player stop working after few minutes without any error. (Browser and Boat Browser)

On Ultra Edition no problem with flash player

Setup: clean flash Ultra Edition

clean flash Black Edition

Hi.

I know it is not ROM related, but is there a way to modify the rotation delay??

So how to change the value of the rotation delay?

[Xperia Z Android Development] Kocane:
Niaboc, I'm digging the dark apps you've made in this ROM. Like I said earlier, I've simply just pushed some of them into your regular 4.3 rom, including the Semcemail.

However, I was wondering... This sender name in an email is using the "dark" font rather than the light font in my theme... Is there a way to change this? Picture for illustration:
[Xperia Z Android Development] Dhickory:
I am experiencing just the opposite with incoming sms and posted about this a few pages back. I'm not trying to be bother, but will reiterate what I posted before. No matter what level I set volume at for incoming sms it is always full volume unless of course it's set to vibrate. Not sure about Bluetooth because I never use it.

I believe there is some interference with GravityBox, because when I disabled it in Xposed the volume adjustment works as it should.

Is there a system file I could remove/freeze with Titanium to avoid this when using GravityBox, or is this just something baked into ROM? Either way I can deal with it and will continue to enjoy this awesome ROM!

I came from [NUT]'s 4.3 ROM, wiped dalvik & cache and everything is running very very smooth:D (C6606)
