Hi friends

I am new to Xperia Z. But not new to Xperia Family. Want to flash this ROM. All things i understand from OP . I am in 2.67 firmware. Do i really need to flash 10.3.1.A.2.74 firmware kernel and baseband for v5. ? Because i cant find a good link for 10.3.1.A.2.74 firmware. Some one please advice me... and i like DARK. Is this rom a pure dark rom ? I am in a Locked Bootloader...

Thanks in advance
[Xperia Z Android Development] lonelyindark:
2.67 and 2.74 are the same , this rom has dark theme as default

If you are on 2.67:

1/Root

2/Install Recovery

3/Reboot in recovery => do factory reset

4/Flash Rom

5/Flash Kernel & Baseband 2.67 or 2.74 using Flashtool

7/Turn on you phone

6/Flash update of this Rom (wipe nothing)

Hope this help

[Xperia Z Android Development] Rajeev:
Very very thanks for this.. Yes i am in 2.67 and have root and dual recovery... So after flashing the ROM i dont need to flash 2.74 kernel and Baseband right.? Just need to flash 2.67 kernel and flash .. Right ?

But i dont understand if i am already on 2.67 why we need to flash the kernel and baseband again... ??
[Xperia Z Android Development] lonelyindark:
2.67 & 2.74 have the same kernel & basaband, actually 2.74 is just a special version of 2.67 was made for some brands like T mobile...http://news.softpedia.com/news/New-...ia-Z-C6603-Version-10-3-1-A-2-74-388200.shtml

After flashing this rom you need to flash kernel & baseband of 2.67 or 2.74 whichever you like to have right kernel & baseband :D
[Xperia Z Android Development] Rajeev:
Yep.. I got it... thanks.. downloading.. Can u tell me whats the different between this rom and another one in there for v3..? i really confused...

[Xperia Z Android Development] lonelyindark:
I recommend another one because i don't see anything different of battery life & stability between two roms but the another one looks more beautiful than this one, full honami framework & app you know ;) and if you want more screenshot of monx's honamiz1 rom take a look on eXistenZ v4.1.0 threat, it is almost the same as monx's honamiz1 :)

Hi, I have problems with my mic, hence need to send the device for repair.

I am using this ROM and would like to restore to stock settings. I had unlocked the bootloader before.

Can anyone please suggest how to go back to stock other than just using the factory settings option?

Thanks
[Xperia Z Android Development] Rajeev:
Just flash the Stock FTF via flashtool mate. Its simple na.? And if u have ur TA backup means restore it and giv to Servic Center...

And If u dont have Warranty means no need to restore TA backup and no need to go back to stock rom.. Just giv to Service Center...

[Xperia Z Android Development] Destroyedbeauty:
Don't use ANY app rebooter / reboot button when below 30-40%, it will trigger the infamous 4.2.2 battery reading bug.

I don't get how hard it can be to shut down a phone the normal way and turn it on again..
[Xperia Z Android Development] Evil_Sephiroth:
It's simple that sometimes the reboot prompt came up and you are in frenzy button mashing.....and....OOOOOPS

BTW any way to fix the battery bug?

Already tried to wipe all +format system and to istall other rum then turn back to monxified rom.....nothing changed

hope to see one Essential release based on official firmware!

ur Rom is really the best so far.

battery saving, fast and stable.

Will send some beer over with the new update!
[Xperia Z Android Development] kingrion88:
You have to restore ur nav bar to default 48 in order themer to work. Otherwise you might have tweaked the dpi settings in build.prop.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Destroyedbeauty:
Don't think so, the battery bug seems to be related to the 4.2.2 sources (perhaps at kernel source levels.. Ask Doomlord or the creator of XzK-Kernel about this, he got good contact with Sony Mobile)..

Is it possible to get the dot overlay removal-mod as a separate modification? Because I like to maintain the current 3 icons in my navigation bar (stock)

I am currently using the following:

- v1.3

- Battery fix

- Camerafix

- 100 percent transparant nav and statusbar

But I very much like your clean interface with the dots taken out. Is this possible for you? Or do you need my home or systemui.apk

Hi mate. I dont really get what u mean. i didnt remove 3dots app overlay on standard transparent mod. Only on permanent key mods.

Are you using battery fix?

Min goes from 100% to 99% in seconds!

Then trough out the middle is much slower...But in the beginning is draining to fast :(
[Xperia Z Android Development] AnubisNefer:
Exactly ;)

I would like a mod which removes the dots overlay while keeping fulltransparancy on nav and statusbar and the "stock" 3 button navigationbar icons.

Did I explain it clearer? ;)

For example, my screenshot from one post earlier, but then with a mod to REMOVE the dot overlay without transforming the navigationbar to 4 button or 5 button-bar
[Xperia Z Android Development] ankabo:
I installed the Rom minutes ago.

From 253, rooted, stock rom, go to recovery (twrp), cleaned cache, dalvik and system (I dont touched data!!!) installed in one shot the rom, cam and battery fix, doomkernel.

Everything looks fine and smooth until now. All data available, no crashes.

[Xperia Z Android Development] Maetz3:
Edit: Post 2: Flash latest Sony's firmware (FTF) matching current latest monxDIFIED base rom using flashtools. Uncheck all WIPE options and exclude all EXCEPT KERNEL & BASEBAND to get latest matched kernel & baseband.

your Kernel have the wrong date (February i think)

Flash: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2282415

then Flash monxDIFIED

Now your Kernel and Baseband are Updated to A.253 and no Update notification pop out.

[Xperia Z Android Development] monx®:
Directory bind is very useful if u r playing games with big data files. It can save internal storage. Just disable SuperSU prompt for it or u can disable the app completely if u not using it.

■ Xperia™ Z
[Xperia Z Android Development] monx®:
By doing this, u going to have no access to “menu“. Are u sure u want this? :p

■ Xperia™ Z
[Xperia Z Android Development] Ape187:
I disabled it from the start 'cause I modded framework.jar to use the external sd instead for the internal. It then saves the app data, downloads and some other things on the external sd and leaves the internal almost untouched. Maybe you could make a separate add-on for it.

All you need to do is decompile framework.jar, go to "smali->android->os" and open Environment.smali and edit the lines highlighted in the pictures I attached. Left is after the change and right is the stock Environment.smali.

If anyone wants the modded framework.jar, feel free to ask and I upload it.
[Xperia Z Android Development] brockyneo:
Wow monx if I've just read right you are 82 years of age man that is amazing to see such devotion to this sort of thing for someone like yourself

[Xperia Z Android Development] monx®:
[MENTION=2125266]Ape187[/MENTION]

some apps better to have their data on internal sd for faster loading/performance. hardcoded swapping is not recommended as this rom might have some mods relying on framework.jar.

Hello. How can i delete all files related to custom recovery from your ROM?

I prefer to use one of recovery's from DooMKerneL...

Please provide a flashable zip package or tell me how i can do that with 7zip or other archive utility. :)

It's because your recovery conflict with builin into doomkernel...

Also please add battery with percentage mod in ROM. :)

Will be very good. Thank you for your hard work!
[Xperia Z Android Development] Ape187:
I see your point, but I haven't seen any slowdowns so far. The phone is fast enough for me already and games run perfectly fine and I don't really care if the app loads a bit longer. I mod the framework.jar every time a new version of your rom is released, or the file itself gets replaced due to a small update or mod, so no problem for me there ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] voyd:
hi,

What is exactly the Addon : "monxDIFIED-SeXZ-253 separate wifi & mobile"

is it a mod to change the base wifi signal ?

if yes is it possible to flash this on stock rom ?

thanks
[Xperia Z Android Development] E90 Commie:
No, that mod is a way of separating the WiFi signal icon from the mobile signal one. On this ROM, they have been integrated into a new combo icon - i.e. that the signal indicator even acts as a WiFi indicator.

So what the add on does is to restore it back to the stock ROM style. It has nothing to do with the WiFi signal strength.

---------- Post added at 06:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:41 PM ----------

What is the problem? I am using DoomKernel v7 and notice no differences when it comes to recoveries compared to ROMAur that I used before. I have both kernel recoveries in place as usual and enter them normally (reboot and then volume up or down).
[Xperia Z Android Development] voyd:
ok thanks.

So it is just to back to "normal", ok, but no addon to "re-back" to the original Rom merge mobile / wifi? ^^
[Xperia Z Android Development] shahulvm:
Read this before posting on battery life / battery drain etc

During the past few years, I have bought and sold many android phones. All my phones had always been rooted/modded, custom rom/kernel installed etc. Not because the phone wasnt perfect, it was really an enthusiasm to keep changing things.

In this process, I got to learn a lot of things. There were 3 reasons for my learning, 'one' I was interested, 'two' I wanted to know inside-out of the gadgets I use, 'three' not all OP's were as friendly as [MENTION=1062326]monx[/MENTION], [MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION] to address all issues or even respond. Common response on the top end forums were "Please use search button in XDA" or "Google it yourself" or "Dont expect to be spoon fed" etc...All this made me to realise self-help is the best help and when your are posting something, be sure to backup your claim with good evidence/proof . If your issue is reproducible easily or affects most ppl, then it would get immediate attn, all others are one-off. Your one-off issue needs to have a good backing for the devs to spend sometime to investigate on. Remember they have their own life, they do the development out of interest and in no way their service is obligatory to us.

Why do I post this, because in this forum I did realise that ppl dont read much, either because you have no time or not interested. The moment you take to root, you have started fiddling with your device and becomes imperative that must start reading little by little, as and when you get the time. This helps everyone including yourself.

Read this to know why your battery drops from 100% soon. Your battery is lying

Read this to know about prolonging your battery life cycle. For a longer battery life cycle

Pls dont focus your energy on every 1% of battery drop, but gauge it by your general use. Get to start using apps like BBS, GSAM, Wakelock detector etc.

Most of all...Read, Read & Read...!!!

Have a good day.........

[Xperia Z Android Development] monx®:
should be enough. what is the conflict issue if I may ask.

it just weird bcos doesn't relate at all. are u using custom kernel?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Kid141221:
No I dont, I use the stock Kernel, everything was fine yesterday. Or maybe because I flashed the XZDualrecovery and use CWM the most?
[Xperia Z Android Development] monx®:
that might cause the issue. can u share why u chose cwm over twrp?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Kid141221:
after flashing your rom, when reboot via the reboot option to recovery, I got into TWRP and tried to flash your addons, but it always says FAILED, I have to power off the phone and then go into TWRP again, flash the zip, then it work. It doesnt happen with CWM though.
[Xperia Z Android Development] monx®:
I never had this issue. all addons were tested by me & im using twrp all the while. just sharing my thoughts tho. I cant stop ppl to make choice :p
[Xperia Z Android Development] Kid141221:
no worries mate, I like TWRP, too. I just dont know why there is a bug like that happen to me, prob because I messed with the phone too much :)) . Anyways, might need to do a factory reset and restart everything again then.
[Xperia Z Android Development] E90 Commie:
According to discussions in other threads, the "reboot on r/o selection in Root Explorer" bug is common for locked bootloaders. It doesn't matter what the ROM is.

I have an unlocked bootloader and have never experienced this problem with any ROM, I gave up on locked bootloader very quickly.

My impression of the latest Monxdified 01-03 is very good, it is an impressive ROM and I really love the transparent addons. Keep up the good work!
[Xperia Z Android Development] B_sHorTy:
So if i'm on stock 253 firmware, I can flash this one on top of it, with the necessary whipes stated in OP?
[Xperia Z Android Development] monx®:
this issue has been fixed in this rom. I don't hv such issue with RE3.0 & any root apps. im on locked bootloader just for BE btw :o

follow CLEAN INSTALL method & skip step 6 & 7. after step 5, just reboot & done.
