you have to edit a file called gps.conf

it`s located in /system/etc

you have to change the first line, don`t rember what was written there exactly,

but for europe region it should be:

NTP_SERVER=europe.pool.ntp.org

or for Germany where I live =de.pool.ntp.org

This should give better result for GPS.

You have to look what Server is the best for where you live.

Or just search for FasterFix at Playstore, that does the same job,

but I don`t know if it works on CM!?

Hey,

will there come exFAT-Support for this ROM?

Seems, that there isn't one till now.

Thanks
[Xperia Z Android Development] krabappel2548:
New version coming up tomorrow or on Friday :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
Great! Any forecast for the update? :D

I tried the .423 Stock Version with Dooms new Kernel yesterday to test some things and compare the cam.

But compared to Carbon it feels so laggy with Stock, even with Dooms Kernel. :cool:

This Carbon Rom with the Sony media apps and cam would be the best I can imagine!

Hopefully Krab will fix the recovery issue with the update, TWRP in Dooms Kernel works fine.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Oxipitale:
Hi,

Here are the bugs I found in case you can look at those :

Noticed one bug with honami keyboard, the emoji button fc's the keyboard when using it.

Halo seems to show only the first notication.

Rebooting the phone makes the nav bar enabled again despite having the pie enabled and nav bar disabled before reboot.

That's all I found, I'm using apex launcher on last carbon rom.

Other than that, and sorry if it has been asked before,but is there any way to control voltage ? I saw it was implemented in last changelog but apps I used don't seem to work.
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
You can use kernel tuner for voltage control.

Btw. [MENTION=327875]krab[/MENTION]

Mabye you can have a look at the GPS. The fix is really fast after changing the server, but it`s not accurate at all.

The location is only set to a accurate of 10m and this is unusable when you drive in a car.

The streets are jumping around. :silly:
[Xperia Z Android Development] Lyechee:
Same, tried the KA01 Radioactive to take a look at the Honami apps.

Feedback: These apps are wonderful, that's not a scoop. The problem is that compared to carbon, everything seem to be laggy.. And I miss the PA Pie and status tiles. So I came back to carbon :P

Hte perfect rom would be carbon with the apps of the Honami. I definitely hate the phone and messaging apps..
[Xperia Z Android Development] meghanath reddy:
what changes we are going to find in new release bro

please try to update sound and camera bro

I flashed this rom yesterday and I have a little problem, the battery stats of the system doesn't seem to track how much screen time I get, or even seem to track if the device is awake. Any workaround?

[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
The stats are fine for me. Maybe you should do a full wipe and install again!?

Btw. For all with GPS probs. I found out, that the additional compass settings caused the unaccurat position.

Just turn off and GPS works like a charm!
[Xperia Z Android Development] DrKrFfXx:
I wiped and all that.

The first time I booted the rom, stats where there, I rebooted and screen stats were gone, hard rested a couple of times and nothing. Now it seems they are back, after a few reboots.

And I remember having this very same problem on an AOSP rom on my previous Xperia S.

I'm a battery life nuts, so I constantly calculate on my head how much screen time left I have based on what I've done, and that stuff, so this is quite an issue for me.
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
Hm.. That's strange. I remember to had one day, where I rebooted several times

and at the end of the day the stats where fine and showing every single reboot in the graphic without matters!?

But if you are a battery junkie, you should install better battery stats app.

It does a great job!

Stock Android stats are fine with me. But either way, I installed that app yesterday to see if it got a clue about the screen time, and it didn't, until I got the stock stats to show anything.

Maybe it's me being dumb but, where can I find that additional compass setting? Cheers for the solution though!
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
Oh yes, I am really sorry! I just saw that these settings are part of Sygic Navigation, what I am using. Sorry for this.

No, i mean without. In my opinion it's just loudness. Maybe my release was buggy, but i like the stock one more.
[Xperia Z Android Development] krabappel2548:
It has never been included and never will be included in the rom ;) everyone should be able to install a mod of their own choice :)

I'm uploading next version now, haven't tested it since I'm still working on Honami stock rom, but it should work good :)

Then i turned to Sgs3&sgs3LTE and missed the SonY device

And now im on xz and I hope your Rom for xz is nice too

I'm currently on cm but when the new update from you is out I will give it a try

And thanks for your Sony device support

Edit:

Download Rom :D

I've decompressed the rom .zip then flashed the boot.img manually from fastboot.

Then went to recovery and flashed the rom.zip + gapps.zip

[Xperia Z Android Development] krabappel2548:
EDIT: New version is released! :)

Updated to do list and changelog, TWRP still has the cache wiping issue, I don't know what's the problem, when I use PAC boot.img I also have the issue so I don't know what causes it. I'm uploading the rom right now :)

To Do List

- Port kernel Gamma Control

- Maybe even more CPU Governors

- Maybe even more I/O Schedulars

- tell me!

Xperia Z changelog
[Xperia Z Android Development] JPWOA:
So the cache wiping issue is related to your Rom right? PAC rom doesn't have it right?

Since you tried another kernel and the problem persists…
[Xperia Z Android Development] krabappel2548:
Yeah, it's kinda weird, the rom shouldn't cause issues for recovery, anyway, mediafire link added :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] tanoxxx:
maybe im lucky but using PAC ROM form time and i havent TWRP cache wiping issue..
[Xperia Z Android Development] jeroenqui:
Nope PAC rom doesn't have it.

Yea, it is indeed very weird. Maybe you should look if you somehow overrided values from the Boardconfig.mk file in the fusion3 common (android_device_sony_fusion3-common) device repo.

You shouldn't define them again in your device (android_device_sony_yuga) repo, I think that's what causing it.

Since TWRP also updated their sources a lot, I assume you're using the 2.5.0.0 branch on their repo?

Because that's the one you should use at the moment. They will release 2.6.0.0 soon, but the 2.5.0.0 branch is the one that's most up to date.

Hi, noticed there's a 4G, 3G and DC on the signal bar.. Dc is 2G? Never seen the icon b4..
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
No, DC is a kind of improved 3G.

I read something about it sometime ago.

If you are in an area of two mobile antennas, DC uses both for a sort of double connection, to improve the datastream.

But for me, DC is not so good as a HSPA connection.

Is anybody else having the probs with TWRP backup or just me?

Or does anybody has a solution for me?

[Xperia Z Android Development] Oxipitale:
I'll try a backup, I didn't have time to test that but wiping cache and dalvik worked fine.
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
When I try to wipe cache it just displays "unable to wipe /cache"

Wipping dalvik is working fine.

I am really confused.. what could this be!?

For you it works somehow and for me not.

Also I can`t backup boot partition.
[Xperia Z Android Development] rustybathtub:
As krab said. He is still trying to fix the twrp problem. So backups and cache wipes are still partially unusable
[Xperia Z Android Development] krabappel2548:
Yes, I also talked to twrp dev, but he also doesn't immediately know what the issue is, I'll check my device files like jeroen said, but there is nothing double I think
[Xperia Z Android Development] rustybathtub:
But even without the recovery this is still the best rom for the Z. Haha!
[Xperia Z Android Development] BeDesireS:
That`s right! ;)

I am just wondering why some people haven`t got the probs that I have with TWRP.

In the versions before, TWRP was just rebooting when wiping cache and now

it seems that it doesn`t even find cache and boot partition.

Everything else is working brilliant!

[Xperia Z Android Development] Psyklon:
Does anyone else have any issue with the phone heating up and draining battery?

I was previously on monx v03 ROM without any issue.

I flashed the boot.img from an earlier TWRP version since I was unable to wipe the phone through TWRP 2.6, installed Carbon along with gapps and left everything stock. The phone drains 2-5% percent every 5-10 minutes.

I charged the phone to 80% and put it in airplane mode before I went to sleep, and the battery was empty when I woke up 6 hours later.

When I look into battery settings I can see that "Media" is the culprit, with packages Download Manager, DRM Protected Content Storage, Media Storage and Downloads.

I have used Carbon earlier so I changed the I/O scheduler from ROW to CFQ which I used with Carbon previously. Hopefully it would help.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Hellscythe:

Managed to fix this myself.

While I was migrating myself fra Monx v3 til Carbon, my external SD card had been corrupted. This is why media scanner was running 24/7, heating and draining my XZ. This never happened before, this is totally unrelated to this ROM and I was just unlucky.

Formated the SD card and everything seems fine (also back on ROW).
