Not yet, will release 4.1.0 ota tomorrow with these features and more changes :P
[Xperia Z Android Development] linx1287:
i wish there were some mirrors...Mega is very buggy in my region...always gets stuck halfway not to mention the sucky speeds -_- & i am dying to try out your rom ... i was wondering why no dev here uses the xdatorrents site? is it a samsung only place? i came from a s3 so that site was a godsend....
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
I use mega because it gives me the fastest upload speeds.

When I use other sites I get an average of 60KB/s (Speed test also says that)

When I use MEGA, it gives me 80KB/s which is a lot faster than other upload sites.

I tried androidfilehost once but upload kept on being corrupted due to uploading very big files

Dev host only allows 512MB per file and I don't want to split the rom into 2 different files or else people will get annoyed of downloading 2 large files instead of 1.

So yeah, MEGA was the best for me when uploading huge files like Full ROMs, MEGA also uses my download speed to the max of 800KB/s average so it downloads fast for me :)

Haven't used XDA's file server before but I can't reupload now. It takes 3 hours for me to upload and by then I would of gone to sleep lol

That is why I do not mirror my full roms, it simply takes too long for me
[Xperia Z Android Development] linx1287:
hey no worries mate... doing all this work for nothing is good enough :) ... using jdownloader on the mega link now...lets see wht happens....btw mate... i am currently on .307 monxdified rom....to install yours. i just follow the OP instructions for 423 right? i dont have to flash kernel ftfs? also i am on c6602
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Follow the instructions in the 3rd post saying "if you are on a previous firmware..."

If must flash the ftf for all new firmwares because you still need the baseband, kernel etc
[Xperia Z Android Development] Faelz:
Downloading...

At night i'll install. thanks! It looks great.
[Xperia Z Android Development] linx1287:
i found the stripped ftf but its for c6603...is it alright to apply in c6602? i read over there that it isnt for c6602 :confused:
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
I'm not sure about C6602 mate, this ROM is for C6603...

Try it at your own risk though, if you are not sure you should try searching for your answer on xda :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] linx1287:
rom installed perfectly Zero...everything works as it should... i was wondering if its possible to have 32dp navbars on this
[Xperia Z Android Development] Faelz:
So far so good here too. and i was think in asking that same thing :)

Just noticed that i have 2 superuser app installed... is normal?

How is the OTA going? Man, can't wait to use X-Reality in our devices after getting it ported successfully
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
It's already done but since I'm not home, I'll have to release it later today
[Xperia Z Android Development] Jberanek:
Hi ZeroInfinity

sorry my stupid question, but I am not sure (this is my first Sony)

If Ii have latest original firmware 10.3.A.0.423 T-MOBILE and root by DooMLoRD - what is RIGHT and BEST installation process now?

only:

1/ install some CWM

2/ boot to CWM and wipe only dalvik

3/ install EXCELSUS Z v4.0.0 from SD

4/ reboot

... no need re-flash any system, kernel etc after this ??

After boot make only re-root by DooMLoRD – OK ?

If will be OTA update EXCELSUS Z v4.x - install this from CWM directly without any wipe ?

Thx for your explain :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
No idea about unlocked bootloader dude, best some other person answer you question
[Xperia Z Android Development] DeathlessOne:
Zero where did he mention about unlocked boot-loader?

And the answer, you are correct. A little changes maybe.

1. First step is OK, after installing CWM don't wipe dalvik.

2. Copy the rom to SD and AFTER installing, wipe dalvik cache.

3. Reboot and it's done.

4. Don't flash any system or kernel.

5. Not necessary to re-root too. The ROM will be rooted.

I think you got mixed with all the guides posted.

Zero, at times it makes me confused too. Can you simplify the installation guide and remove one's that aren't necessary? Coz there are lots. It'll help beginners a lot.
[Xperia Z Android Development] link_one:
Waiting for OTA 4.0.1 A first port all. Sorry I can ask is that you never release it for sale??? :silly:

Haha my bad, I thought he said doom kernel lol

What do you mean
[Xperia Z Android Development] link_one:
sorry my english vid slightly less.

V4.1.0 OTA Update CHANGELOG updated in 2nd post :)

Will release in a few mins :D

EDIT: V4.1.0 OTA Update "Honami Edition" is out! :D
[Xperia Z Android Development] Jonster111:
Thanks but after flashing the OTA Update my navigation- and statusbar is gone... :D
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Impossible! mine are still here...

How did that happen?!

Did you wipe dalvik cache after update? because I have no bugs whatsoever
[Xperia Z Android Development] Jonster111:
Yes. Ive flashed it the second time now. Also with wiping dalvik cache no nav- and statusbar...
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Well that is VERY strange, try to install v4.0.0 again then the ota update straight after that and see if that works :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] marcoplo:
In my case i didnt wipe any thing what so every thing works great except album got FC! every thing else is pefrect !:cool::cool:

Wiping dalvic cache did not break anything in my case and album problem remains
[Xperia Z Android Development] Jonster111:
Hm no even after flashing v4 and then the update, no bars...
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Very strange indeed, I am perfect with no issues at all...

Well, I'm out of suggestions here...

Reboot in recovery

Hi,

I have EXCELSUS 4.0 - everythink work fine, but I can not reboot in recovery ?

In boot I feel the phone vibrate bit do not see the green led.

If I press VOL-UP for CWM booting system, if I press VOL-DOWN for TWRP booting SAFE MODE ...

pls, how is make this ?
[Xperia Z Android Development] spajder6:
Gallery stopped working any sugestion?
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Everything works perfectly, no idea what the hell is wrong with your phone...

CWM and TWRP works like normall, how the hell did you even get into safe mode...

Remember to press either vol+ or vol- AFTER the green LED light and the phone vibrates. that's how you enter a recovery.

If you still have this problem it is best for you to reinstall XZDual Recovery in the Xperia Z Android Development section

How the hell??? My Albums work perfectly with no problems at all...

I still don't get how some people have strange bugs which do not exist on my phone (Same rom and version obviously)
[Xperia Z Android Development] Jberanek:
I reinstall XZDual Recovery - after working fine and recovery open.

But after installing OTA update - MY ALBUM not work - FC :(
[Xperia Z Android Development] marcoplo:
Just word of WARNING

do not do factory reset (CWM)after applying 4.1.0 update because it will crash while turning on -> System UI FC and end up using flashtool mark my words ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] long2905:
so did anyone other than the ROM maker successfully flashed the new version 4.1?
[Xperia Z Android Development] marcoplo:
deleted
[Xperia Z Android Development] rayda:
first thanks for this rom but i have a problem with album app it crash
[Xperia Z Android Development] Faelz:
Seems the problem is in the v4.1.0...

i'm on 4.0 and had no problems!
[Xperia Z Android Development] peschka:
Same thing here. Flashed 4.0 without problems and then 4.1 OTA and here you got .. album FC :(
[Xperia Z Android Development] JPWOA:
Try clear data from Album.all, them replace it manually with the one on the zip file from the port thread and restart you phone!

That worked for me on 4.0 and I was getting those errors...
[Xperia Z Android Development] FiDra:
Thanks for this nice ROM, ZeroInfinity :)

The new launcher is totally awesome, no lag at all (y)
[Xperia Z Android Development] Hellscythe:
i want to get 4.1 OTA but, is there anybody here who hasn't had album issues? :S

i know i could probably use quickpic or something, but yeah ahaha

cheers
[Xperia Z Android Development] FiDra:
Me :D

Install v4 from stock, then reboot and wait about 10' for the ROM to settle, then flash v4.1.

There is no any issue so far :)

SYSTEMUI HAS STOPPED :mad: can't enter home screen
[Xperia Z Android Development] Mr.TheND:
I install Smaller Nav size MOD over 4.1 and status bar, navi bar are disappear :crying:

I reflash ROM but it stil disappear. Help me!!!
[Xperia Z Android Development] DeathlessOne:
Did you follow the instructions properly? If you did, it looks like bothe of you have messed up with the system partition.

Didn't you know that the smaller nav-bar mods are experimental for 4.2.2 and also this is a different launcher from 4.2.2?

Both of you should do a full wipe and start from the beginning or restore from a backup!
[Xperia Z Android Development] pattawongse:
same as me

flash 4.0 everything workfine but after

flash ota 4.1 found album Force Close issue
[Xperia Z Android Development] Mr.TheND:
Of course, I get flashable zip from: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=42962383&postcount=220

I reflash this ROM (i see it include a command to erase system partition) and nothing change, status bar and nav-bar still disappear. :(

---------- Post added at 12:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:26 PM ----------

Try this:
[Xperia Z Android Development] DeathlessOne:
That's what I said, the flashable zip is OK but the mode for 4.2.2 still in beta stages and not officially stable (It's stated there though). Though it can be used for 4.2.2 launcher, it can't be used on EXCELSUS 4.1. Coz our's is a different one from HONAMI. So flashing that zip is not advised. It won't support this launcher I presume. Get it?
[Xperia Z Android Development] changkho1908:
yeah i tried and status bar and nav bar disappear, why ZeroInfinity didn't add small nav bar mod into his rom?????
[Xperia Z Android Development] DeathlessOne:
Please follow the posts before reporting the same problem.

If Album force closes, do the following.

Go to Settings - Apps - All - SemcAlbum and force stop it.

Then clear data and cache of it.

Now extract the SemcAlbum.apk from EXCELSUS 4.1.zip (under system - app)

Now copy the apk from the zip, open root explorer, navigate to system - app and mount it R/W.

Copy the apk and overwrite the one already present.

Change permissions to rw-r-r and reboot the device.

---------- Post added at 11:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:17 AM ----------

Oh my god, that's what am telling you - That Mod won't support this launcher (it's for the stock Sony launcher) and that's why Zero didn't include it and he won't I hope. (This is from a different device) Phew!
[Xperia Z Android Development] Mr.TheND:
Ok, thanks. I got it.

[MENTION=4388232]ZeroInfinity[/MENTION], Why you don't make small nav-bar size MOD for your ROM? :D
[Xperia Z Android Development] Jonster111:
I had the Problem, that after flashing the OTA update my status- and navbar was gone... But after Flashing the whole v4, starting it, and then flash the update i worked.

Now I just noticed, that the pinch-to-zoom gesture to access the launcher settings isnt working. You have to make a long press on an empty place.

My Album app have forced-closed too. I just extraced the one from v4, deleted the not working one, pushed the extracted to system/app and restarted. Now it works :laugh: :good:
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
Because I don't know how to :p

If someone made it compatible with the Rom then I would add it to the add ons section of the thread :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] Hellscythe:
I also get album fc ;(

Is anyone else's scrolling a bit laggy in the settings app?
[Xperia Z Android Development] niaboc79:
To fix album force close:

Move semcalbum.apk from system to system/app

Reboot

Move back semcalbum.apk from system to system/app

Reboot

Is a full wipe really needed?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Vaith:
I installed clean stock. Rooted and installed Recovery. I installed your ROM but without succes. I only have black screen(I think SystemUI i s broken). I flashed again stock etc. I made factory reste, format /system, clean dalvik cache. Phone booted up but SystemUI is FC all the time... I cant do ANYTHING. COuld somebody post RIGHT instruction how to install this ROM? Instruction made by author is wrong and I cant install rom.
[Xperia Z Android Development] DeathlessOne:
If you think you're right, then I may prove you wrong because I have followed the same instructions made by Zero and am perfectly alright. First tell us some details before blaming Zero or anyone.

What firmware are you in?

What device do you have? (C6603/02)

Boot-loader status?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Vaith:
FW: Latest 4.2.2

Device:C6603

Bootloader:Locked

I followed instruction but without succes... I made clean install. Just installed this ROM on clean stock. I installed 4.0 and 4.1 then cleaned dalvik cache and SystemUI FC and I can't use phone... Its my 3rd install of stock so please give working instruction because I dont have to time to make it 4th time... Thanks :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] nielneal:
you installed 4.0 and before booting to 4.0 u directly installed 4.1...?????
[Xperia Z Android Development] DeathlessOne:
I'll Post all the steps and what I did. Please follow them carefully in sequence. Do not combine one with another or mix up. You can omit them if you've done already.

My device: C6602

Firmware: 4.2.2 Spanish

Bootloader: Locked

1. Do a clean installation of 4.2.2 firmware (Erase everything including internal storage)

2. Reboot and give time for the new FW to settle.

3. Then root using V15 of doom's exploit.

4. Install DualRecovery 2.5 Beta by NUT.

5. Copy ROM to SD or Internal.

6. Install 4.0

7. Wipe Dalvik and reboot.

8. Leave some time for it to settle.

9. Go to recovery again and flash 4.1

10. Again wipe dalvik.

11. Reboot and that's it.

Note: Take periodic backups if necessary

[Xperia Z Android Development] Vaith:
I installed 4.0 and directly 4.1 so maybe thats the problem. I will try...

EDIT:

As I expected... Recovery is not working... I just can't enter it with VOL UP or even VOL DOWN... I don't knwo what is going on...
[Xperia Z Android Development] DeathlessOne:
Use the dual recovery and that too 2.5 beta version ONLY. Other and previous versions won't work. 2.4 and before aren't supported.
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeroInfinity:
I swore that V4.0.0 uses V2.5 BETA Of XZDual Recovery? I haven't changed anything for the recovery in v4.1.0 ota so it should work like normal (well, it does for me)

ROM works on my Z unlocked bootloader.. No FC's for the v4.1 update after flashing v4.0. I did a series of flashing because i'd encountered some conflicts after the phone boots up. It says the android blah blah blah media has stopped. Anyways sound enhancement works perfectly fine here, however swype in keyboard doesnt work properly as what mentioned above but works correctly if you type in your word after. Somehow it does remember the word you type in there automatically.

Wiping cache on locked bootloader makes you lost recovery...

[Xperia Z Android Development] DeathlessOne:
