in your rom, when i make a call, everbody doesn't hear me

i extract the boot.img from the package.

put boot.img in your fastboot directory.

fastboot flash boot boot.img
[Xperia Z Android Development] Droidphilev:
what a shame. i can't get it to work anymore :(

first i excluded al except baseband when the problem started.

afterwards i tried flashing the whole 253 stock rom and flashed the latest kernel from your zip, your rom and gapps.

because of flashing the stockrom i lost my backups so i had to start freshly :(

even then: other side doesn't hear me in an empty Carbon (stockrom worked fine) :(

any other ideas please?

EDIT: it's the mic that doesn't work. recording doesn't work either. stock rom works fine

EDIT 2: started all over. stock rom and afterwards 17th may build. mic works fine (no apps installed). updated to 19th may build > mic dead. i wonder how you guys get it to work
[Xperia Z Android Development] krabappel2548:
Just found out the same about mic... So I'll try to fix it tonight ')
[Xperia Z Android Development] elroy944:

Any way to switch on LTE on for the c6602 model? It uses the same exact chip as the Nexus 4 so it should have the same LTE chip.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Osyx:
If that's the case, just search for how users enabled it on the Nexus on Google, there has never been an option for that in any Rom.

So.. using this ROM for a whilw, and found out NFC is not working, i have read your post about it, and i don't know what build im from, i do know that it was Stock 4.2.2.

Tried the NFC fix here, not working.

What do?

Thnx
[Xperia Z Android Development] krabappel2548:
Try placing one of the 2 NFC files from stock in /system/vendor/firmware

Don't forget to rename them and delete the current file for NFC :)

I'll place the right NFC file on first post later

Or take mine, it's renamed and ready :)

Hi! With regards to the battery "bug" where when we are down to around 20-30%, when we reboot we will get back around 50+..this reminds me the days of the HD2'sbehaviour where it does not detect the full capacity of a extended battery.. Do u think the XZ is behaving this way or it just gives a false reading when we reboot?
[Xperia Z Android Development] krabappel2548:
Stock 4.2.2 also has this bug :(
[Xperia Z Android Development] scpion:
Had used up the "reclaim" 50+%... It feels like a genuine charge so I think the system is not detecting the full capacity of the battery... I think.. In layman term..
[Xperia Z Android Development] Hellscythe:
is this just a sony 4.2.2 bug or a universal 4.2.2 bug? :S
[Xperia Z Android Development] ckyy:
It's a universal bug. It happens in Stock, CM, AOKP, Pac etc...
[Xperia Z Android Development] ILikeTheWayYouMove2:
First Thanks for the awsome rom ive tried many roms for the Z and i keep coming back to this! I love how fluid and quick it is but i do get alot of failed msg in TWRP even though its not failed for example when i factory reset it fails bit still has factory reset (maybe because of cache bug?)

One feature i would like is to centre the clock and maybe if possible to change the main theme colour of blue to maybe other colours

But again thanks for the rom my daily driver look forward to future updates!

Hmm. How to send a multi SMS without sending it as an MMS and without splitting it up in the conversations?

Can't seem to get it right. Either send +160 characters as an MMS or either as a split sms. Want multi sms in one big text. As it used to be in the past...

Any clue anyone?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Osyx:
If you've as split sms it's as it was in the past, it will just be one big box but the network will pay you for multiple sms.

if I recall well, if i select split part sms (160 chars= split) it does send them as 2 texts and it shows as 2 texts, I had one yesterday, split up for the last 2 words (in overview of all messages to that person)
[Xperia Z Android Development] rustybathtub:
In sms settings, just tick split sms and multi part sms and it should send as sms and not mms

First of all I would like to say that i bought my XZ two weeks ago and been running this rom since.. I absolutely love it!

However, I have some minor issues:

1. I'm yearning to change the signal icons color on the statusbar to white. Couldn't find any MOD that will fit your rom so I edited SystemUI.apk and

after I replaced it my phone wouldn't boot (stuck on carbon logo).

2. That brings me to the second issue. Tried to backup in TWRP recovery but it failed, don't know why.

3. Finally, if i set a number of different led pulse notifications and i get more than one, the led lights up in colors it shouldn't be light on.

For summation I would definitely recommend this rom to any XZ owner, it's the best option ;)

Would appreciate any help.

Thanks in advance,

Shaked.
[Xperia Z Android Development] broke23:
Thx mate. Didn't see it changing to sms when you select both options. Thx a bunch
[Xperia Z Android Development] Osyx:
The recovery has nothing to do with the kernels ability to undervolt, that's a feature of the kernel it self. But you need an app to control the kernels features.

[Xperia Z Android Development] Lyechee:
Check whatsapp krab ^^

Smoother Roms are nice, but what about a better interface?

This is my personal point of view, but:

-Carbon is extra Smooth, but camera and stock apps are kinda ugly. The Pie and the notification bar in tiles and the possibility to move things in the statusbar like the hour, hide the navbar and the beautiful lockscreen, these are the things that I love in Carbon.

-KA Radioacative (Honami), less smotth and lees battery time than Carbon I guess, but a application package with a beautiful design, and easy to use (I've always found the Sony apps more beautiful but classy, not too much like Sense or the colors of Touchwizz)

I'm looking forward to see a mix by you of these two roms appear on XDA.

The performances and the ergonomy of the system of Carbon, with the ergonomy and the design of the stock apps from the Honami.

You need to unlock bootloader first and flash boot.img through fastboot for this rom to boot.

Not me.

Battery life is excellent I must say.

[Xperia Z Android Development] sebastianlow:
Weird, last night I decided to wipe and flash the rom again. When I entered recovery, TWRP showed 58% when I was told by the rom I had 30% just before I rebooted into recovery. I reflashed the rom and battery life is back to what I would consider normal again :)

Would anyone agree with me that if Krab can work his Magic and make purexaudio work on this, it would hands down be the best rom ever?!?!

Or would anyone know of any other ways to get awesome sound quality like purexaudio?
[Xperia Z Android Development] AlienCraB:
Doesn't it already work?

I have it flashed and knowing that the pureXaudior mod doesn't have any ROM limitations and that it only is limited by what audio hardware exists in the phone, I see no reason why it shouldn't already work.

For me, it does. After flashes, it even replaces my default eq settins, meh, and I notice tweaks in build.prop etc.

I don't have the measuring tools required to actually show you the difference but even if not fully, it works.

In the worst case, there's always the lite (universal) version of pureXaudio anyway, just go with that.
[Xperia Z Android Development] sebastianlow:
Weird, I after flashing the ROM again, I experienced the problem again. Apparently the ROM won't display the actual battery stats :/

I have tried to flash Doom Kernel V9 with this ROM via TWRP recovery and it just keep reboot at the start up screen. Guess Doom Kernel is not compatible with this ROM? Or do we have to use fastboot to install the boot.img for Doom Kernel for this ROM?
