The weird thing is that the zip file is certainly not corrupted on my pc and can install just fine on my Xperia z

Would u pliz give us a Mirror link?

Also, i saw a mod in SGS4 camera: dual shot, can u put it in our XZ?

[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
What's wrong with dev host?

SGS4's dual shot mod I don't really see any point. In what situation would you need to record the front and back camera at the same time? :p

Anyways, we would need to port the whole camera app over which is very hard. It's just like porting the Sony Camera app to AOSP roms, it's possible but no one is able to do it.

[Xperia Z Android Development] danw_oz:
I am not sure if someone else has noticed this, if you flash from rooted .253 with softkeys size mod, it throws an error about UI failure, and no softkeys, if you power off and flash the soft keys again all is fine.

Hello all,

i want to say that : This rom rom is great, but i have a problem with the battery drain.

This morning i have 100% battery, i use it to look some news (10 min), and i lost 5% battery...

5% in 10 min, i have test it on wifi yesterday, and in 3G this morning, i have the same issue.

And now in the train (20min), with google music, i lost 5%.

Can you fix that?

Thank you for you hard work.
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
I've been trying to fix this stupid issue since the start of the new firmware!

Haven't found a solution yet but it seems like new firmware even on stock is a battery drainer...

I suggest you download greeify root to save your battery or Snapdragon battery guru

70%?! My Android OS Normally takes 30% MAX. 70% is a bit extreme. Maybe you have too many apps installed? Or maybe too many apps running in the background

now i on 2.51

found problem with sound while listen to music (walkman) sometime sound silent for 0.3 s

after that sound seem work for while
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
You are talking about audio skipping right? It doesn't happen as often but it is still there because of this stupid new firmware.

.434 firmware with v15 PureXAudio did not have any audio skipping issues at all! but new firmware made audio skipping worse.

It's not all the time but it happens more often when louder volumes, my suggestion is that you set your I/O scheduler to "Deadline" using No Frills to reduce the chance of audio skipping.
[Xperia Z Android Development] vincky87:
Hi,

I lost the theme after flashing this rom. Is there anywhere I can flash back the default all theme?
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Sigh... If you READ the first page you would know what to do...

Isn't the 'Tablet of contents' enough of a hint for you???
[Xperia Z Android Development] Hellscythe:
hmmm, another theory is that the battery is calibrated incorrectly in the 253 firmware :S

because when i use my device, the battery lasts really long till about 55percent, then it drains really quickly.

it drained from 15 percent to power off in about 2 hours in my pocket.

although, i still managed nearly 4 hours screen on

EDIT: upgraded to 2.5.1 OTA and now it is on Android is upgrading, starting applications, for like the last 5 minutes

EDIT 2: nevermind, powered off again and powered it back on and it works

Also, i think it has already been mentioned before that volume down doesn't change the volume while the screen is off :S

apart from that, i like this rom (:

The audio mod is great

but for some reason my equalisers reset :S
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
The volume down bug is because volume key fast capture mod

Still trying to find a solution for audio not setting, if I set permission correctly, the whole equaliser resets to stock...

Not on this firmware, I mean the next firmware has already been announced...

It's annoying to do for every firmware, maybe someone else can do it :)

EDIT: New OTA Update releasing in a few mins/hours

2.5.2 is out! after flashing, wipe dalvik cache ONLY and reboot :D
[Xperia Z Android Development] Lyin729:
nice! just installed it and found the home button has been replaced by sony logo :D

but it would be better if you can change it to XPERIA logo because we already have the sony logo on the screen(protector)
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Haha, you know what? I actually forgot about adding that to the changelog! :laugh:

I didn't make the mod however, I could try to resize a xperia logo somewhere on google images but I prefer the manufacturer's logo since it looks more like on HTC One (HTC logo)

Also, when you say " XPERIA logo because we already have the sony logo on the screen" then how about "Sony logo because we already have Xperia logo on the back"? :p

Just joking, I'll try to find a xperia logo and put it on the navbar when I have the time :)

EDIT: Added to changelog now :p
[Xperia Z Android Development] Lyin729:
Haha, just do it when you have time, I love the SONY logo too :) it makes my phone looks way different from other who are using stock rom XDD

Just tried to flash this rom, but after rebooting I got system ui force close...

I'm on .253 rooted with NUT's instructions and didn't wipe before or after flashing anything.

Even though I don't know what "3) Install Excelsus Z like normal" is supposed to mean, since I never installed it before...

I'll probably try it again later, maybe it's a TRWP problem...

It means flash it like you would on any other mod or rom...

U don't see how you would get such problems if you followed the instructions properly

Swiped from my Super fast XPERIA Z C6603 powered by EXCELSUS Z ROM
[Xperia Z Android Development] FingerMove:
Hmm... I'd make a factory reset, wipe cache and/or format system.

Afterwards flashing the rom and reboot without wiping anything... or wipe dalvik cache for the updates.

But good to know that I should follow the extremely detailed instructions first...

Oh well, I'm on unlocked bootloader, there are no detailed instructions...

Nevermind, I'll just try again later.

I keep getting systemui fc, started all over again, flashed .434 rooted it then update to 253 with root and recovery. flash 2.5.0 reboot, systemui fc expected, bacl to cwm flash 2.5.1, still systemui fc, am I missing something? I did wipe dalvik

Not this again... READ BACK A FEW POSTS to find your answer...

I don't know why you get system ui but there is already a fix,

People just need to read back a few posts to see...

found it, by the way that didnt show up on search results when I searched "systemui fc", wouldnt be asking otherwise, I'm here over 3 years i have very little post as I'm one of those who reads
[Xperia Z Android Development] Faelz:
I thinking of using the rom but i got some questions:

1- The V2.5.2 fixed the systemui fc problem or just installing the docomo?

2- I need to install the base version, then v2.5.1 and 2.5.2? or the last version comes with the previous updates? thanks!
[Xperia Z Android Development] El.Guaje:
Download DocoMo Status Bar V7 and install it :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
1. For some reason some people still get system fc and I do not know why. Systemui.apk is not corrupted in any way in my rom. I have never gotten this issue right from 1.1.0

2.yes you need to install 2.5.0 and then the OTA updates in order
[Xperia Z Android Development] eric1214:
Hi this 2.5.2 ver. Is build in 2.53 ? My devices today say have new ver. , is 101.1.a1.253, can i update there one?

Thanks reply
[Xperia Z Android Development] deconfrost:
this is based on 10.1.1.a.1.253, if you currently on .434 and you update through sony you will lose root, i assume you are on locked bootloader, there's a guide how to update to .253 and retain root, then you can flash this after installing recovery. link to the guides are in OP
[Xperia Z Android Development] Hellscythe:
Hey guys, is it just me, or does 2.5.1 and 2.5.2 have audio skipping issues?

i didn't have any of these issues on 2.5 :S

also running RomAur 4.2 and im also getting audio skipping.

can anyone confirm if its a firmware issue or a specific rom issue?
[Xperia Z Android Development] long2905:
maybe you should post up a FAQ ZeroInfinity?
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Just you, I have had no skipping issues, I thought I fixed it all??

Try adding Walkman or whatever music player you have to Stamina exclusion list so it won't get inactive when screen is off.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Hellscythe:
oh im not pointing the finger at you haha

and im not using stamina mode :S

maybe ill try again with a full wipe (:
[Xperia Z Android Development] eric1214:
why my xz have more problem at flash to 2.5.2, i take the 1080 HD Movies, that is no sound for normal, just the big noise, the sound like the raido,,, too bad lucky..
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
speaker volume? it does that.

My Volume boost increases speaker audio by a few values, this also increases noise level. It is not as noticeable if you have loud audio/sound coming from speakers with relatively low volume but it will be very noticeable if you have your speakers on high volume with not a lot of audio/sound (for example, just voices talking on high speaker volume)

If you have a problem with this, I recommend you to either use headphones (There is no noise in headphones) or download "Stock volume patch" in my PureXAudio Xperia Z thread (Link in my signature below) to restore original stock volume (The audio will be a lot quieter like in stock).

Most of the time, I don't really take notice of noise unless i put my ears near the speaker. Viewing movies in high volume with slight noise from speakers is not a big deal for me (As I mainly use headphones when i watch my movies for awesome sound experience!) :) Games do not produce a lot of noise either for me.
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
There will not be any OTAs until I have rebased this rom onto the new firmware when Central Europe or UK FTF is released :)

Hopefully, battery life will be better in this new firmware and screen won't drain the battery that much.

[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Need opinions guys. Since the other two new updates have been certified (thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2315888) Do you want me to update to new firmware or wait for next firmware?

[Xperia Z Android Development] brockyneo:
It's a pain zero I admit but it's nice to be running the latest version and it might be better on battery too

[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Depends how long the other 2 new updates will be released, we don't exactly know yet.

Upgrading to new firmware is good and all with great improvements but it's a pain to upgrade the whole rom. And hearing about the other 2 new updates makes me more annoyed lol.

If more people say yes to upgrade then I will do it ;)

[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
If you are on .253 firmware then just wipe system, data, dalvik cache (avoid wiping cache on locked bootloader or it will mess up your recovery) and flash the rom :)

Hi ZeroInfinity, it would be great if you could update to the newest .307 firmware. After all the updates are there to improve performance and stability and being on outdated firmware is not what flash-happy people like ;P

So yeah, when you get some time please consider an update. Thanks for your great work
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Of course mate :) I will update to 307 asap (I will find some free time today and tomorrow) and probably release somtime next week :)

I flashed the Belgium .307 FTF (as suggested by DoomLord for his new rooting toolkit).

Did a full flash formatting everything.

Later rooted using the toolkit.

Next, installed CWM v4 released by krabappel.

Next, installed Excelsus 2.5.0 and rebooted.

Upon turning on, SystemUI force closes (so no status bar and touch icons, obviously)

Am I missing something? Or is it the case that the ROM is based on .253 and am in .307 and it causes the problem? (.307 was an incremental update to .253 right?)

Should I be waiting for your next version to be .307 fully compatible or any suggestions?
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
If you are on 307 then I don't know what problems you may have with this rom as it is based on 253.

I have already made a 307 version, just need to find to to release it is all ;)

I might release it on the weekends if I have the time.
