Anyone running this ROM please give me Settings.apk and SystemUI like ASAP. Even if you aren't flash it and give it to me. In return I'll give you a 4.3 Google Play Edition ROM. But I need these for cross checking.

How do you do that? Flash the ROM. Get any root file explorer. Go to System/App. Copy the two APKS to your internal memory. Upload it to DropBox or equivalent and PM me the link
[Xperia Z General] pabx:
And what are you planning to do with them? There is nothing special about Settings and SystemUI in this ROM:

System-UI is compiled from the unmodified 4.2.2 sources and my changes for Settings are here: https://github.com/adrian-bl-yuga/android_packages_apps_Settings (and 100% useless if you are not using qc-fqd)
[Xperia Z General] Stony-D:
You will give us the google play edition Rom from the Xperia Z?

I am dreaming? :fingers-crossed:
[Xperia Z General] DesertHawk:
For now im just playing around... Where ever it leads me too i guess. I ported 4.3 and it booted with FXP's 4.2 kernel so im surprised so im just going with the flow. Thanks bro
[Xperia Z General] Hellscythe:
could you perhaps upload a test build for us in a new thread? :D
[Xperia Z General] bariz143:
Yeah its a little bit laggy sometimes. And battery dies very quickly

Peace
[Xperia Z General] pabx:
Could you share some details? I don't have any lag and get about 4 hours of on-screen-time.
[Xperia Z General] bariz143:
I have lag when opening/closing app drawer and in various apps. And some fc's

Peace
[Xperia Z General] pabx:
Sorry, but that doesn't help much: which apps do crash? could you post a logcat?

Also: Did you flash userdata & what kernel are you running?
[Xperia Z General] Akiainavas:
Installed, works great. Can't get hangouts as a default sms app though. In settings > deafult sms app - it isn't listed, I see only Messages there. Even if I install hangouts manually ( because it's not there after gaaps instalation ) it doesn't appear on that list. Any ideas ?
[Xperia Z General] bariz143:
I don't have a logcat sry. Yes I flashed userdata. I'm using stock kernel that comes with your rom bro

Peace
[Xperia Z General] pabx:
Build 3.2 is now online. The location-provider issue should be fixed.

Note that gapps was also upgraded: Just place the new file at /sdcard/ before flashing and you should be fine.
[Xperia Z General] Knucklessg1:
I can't wait till kexec is figured out so I can try this ROM. Good job Dev!
[Xperia Z General] bariz143:
What do you mean with should be fine with placing the gapps

Peace

I can't hear thru ear piece when making calls. Oovoo works good. And headset but not the ear speaker. Anyone else having this issue?
[Xperia Z General] :
I made someone send me a text, I got a notification from Hangouts to make this the default text app.
[Xperia Z General] heubergen:
Have you edit the Energie Save Settings in Settings - Xperia Z Settings?
[Xperia Z General] :
Can someone tell me the difference between Launcher3 and Google Home in the new 3.2 version?
[Xperia Z General] pabx:
Google Home is the launcher that comes with the Gapps package

Launcher3 is the opensource Version of the 'Google Home' launcher. They are almost the same, the only big difference ist, that 'Google Home' has 'better' Google-Now integration (eg: scrolling to the left edge will launch google now)
[Xperia Z General] bariz143:
Hahha you never going to belive me but i got 3 different launchers after i flashed 3.2.

And no i didnt flash any other launcher
[Xperia Z General] :
So for a normal day to day user i'd pick Google Home because of the scroll?

Also, Launcher3 does nothing when you click ''settings'' on the home screen.
[Xperia Z General] bariz143:
Yeah i noticed that to. Im using the one with blue icon :P

Also reboot to recovery dont work either
[Xperia Z General] heubergen:
It works, thanks :)
[Xperia Z General] :
Sorry for so much questions :(

Any way to edit the quick setting tiles? Also, they don't really toggle but they are just shortcuts to the settings-category now, I don't know if this was a CM feature but is there a way to get this back?

Thanks
[Xperia Z General] bariz143:
Have you tried long pressing the toggles? NO!!

Try again ;)
[Xperia Z General] heubergen:
Long press don't help.
[Xperia Z General] bariz143:
It works for me :P

Peace
[Xperia Z General] beni8978:
Can I wipe the data with recovery?

C6603 ?

I now get "Phone has stopped working" every 5 seconds and 3G is gone, it's like the antenna isn't detected.
[Xperia Z General] Anobiz:
Rooting

Is there any way on how this rom can be rooted?

Is there something like an universal way that works on all devices for AOSP based roms?

Kr,
[Xperia Z General] Xanathoscl:
how root this rom?

how install cwm?
[Xperia Z General] heubergen:
[MENTION=2208406]bariz143[/MENTION]:

It's work, I'm just to stupid to do what you say :)

[MENTION=4853108]beni8978[/MENTION]:

NOOO!

Flash the three img files with fastboot, copy the GAPPS in the path /sdcard/ (can you do manually) and the finish!

[MENTION=4575175]gFrenken97[/MENTION]:

Do you use the newest build from tonight?
[Xperia Z General] tjackbjorn:
Just flash this one in recovery guys: http://download.chainfire.eu/351/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zip

Recovery is included in the boot.img, so just boot in and flash, don't wipe or anything :) Good luck!
[Xperia Z General] heubergen:
[MENTION=4711140]Anobiz[/MENTION] [MENTION=4891896]Xanathoscl[/MENTION]:

Just flash this zip in the CWM => http://download.chainfire.eu/351/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zip?retrieve_file=1

[MENTION=4891896]Xanathoscl[/MENTION]:

By me, the CWM was not touched or include so flash a kernel with cwm, flash then the three img files an see then.

Edit:

Here's someone quicklyer then me.
[Xperia Z General] GrimTech:
I'd use this Rom, but sadly my bootloader is locked :(
[Xperia Z General] Xanathoscl:
thanks! how I enter recovery mode??
[Xperia Z General] Anobiz:
Thanks for your help but as far as I know, no recovery is included in this rom, so how could I flash SuperSU zip?

Can I do it through fastboot, just the same way as GAPPS are pushed?

Kr
[Xperia Z General] GrimTech:
I wonder when there'll be a Locked Bootloader version, I'm really eager to use 4.4
[Xperia Z General] venky716:
CWM Recovery is included.

Reboot and keep pressing volume up on seeing the Sony logo.

Also great work [MENTION=3911109]pabx[/MENTION] thanks a ton.

Although its laggy appreciate ur work to bring 4.4 to XZ so soon :)

Notes: Gravity box doesn't seem to work.

Xposed framework does work.

SuperSu 1.65 works.

Brightness levels are a bit off.

No random reboots or major Fcs just apps tend to lag here and there.

Battery life is normal got 3.5 hrs SOT on second charge cycle with 12h standby. 3g 50% brightness.

Tasker not yet fully compatible with 4.4 many functions don't work like GPS, 3g.

All other apps I use seemed to work.
[Xperia Z General] Anobiz:
Ok, I've entered recovery mode, and I flashed the zip, but could you mind have a quick look at my latest question?

If I have a rom without a custom recovery, is there a possible way to install a zip package (by using adb push) and root the phone like that?

Kr
[Xperia Z General] jdjta:
When you reboot your phone you'll see a pink led, push volume up and the led will turn blue and CWM will be started.

CWM is included in the boot.img, you have to flash this using ADB (See OP!). Afterwards you can flash the zip to gain root acces.
[Xperia Z General] heubergen:
[MENTION=3634760]GrimTech[/MENTION]:

Then unlocked it! => http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/

[MENTION=4891896]Xanathoscl[/MENTION]:

When the LED blink, press the [UP]-Button.

[MENTION=4711140]Anobiz[/MENTION]:

On the best you flash first a kernel, that include a recovery (4.3 oder 4.2).

Then flash you over fastboot the three img files, then boot into the recovery and flash the zip.

No, you can't flash the ZIP with fastboot or adb.

Edit:

To late!
[Xperia Z General] GrimTech:
[MENTION=4304415]heubergen[/MENTION] Can't, I already tried, it says I can't unlock it anyway. I would have done it already if I could :3

Rooting Status:

Bootloader unlock Allowed: No
[Xperia Z General] Anobiz:
Thanks for this answer.

But, in this particular case, boot.img contains a recovery, is that correct?

Sorry for the dumb questions, I'm fascinated :D
[Xperia Z General] Xanathoscl:
work for me!!!

THanks all's =D
[Xperia Z General] tjackbjorn:
Yes that's correct. :) If you don't ask you'll never know!

which is the best resolution in dpi? just switched to the 410 and I walk faster, the other, as I can fix that nfc icon appears next to wifi connection
[Xperia Z General] bariz143:
HI i have pm you. Could you please read it :)

Peace
[Xperia Z General] fards:
whichever dpi you prefer is the best one for you!

personally I like 380dpi on this.
[Xperia Z General] Nolimited:
Data don't work for me. It can't even find LTE/4G or my 3G network anymore. Have i missed anything?

Flashed boot, system and userdata (come from stock w/ cmw).

pushed gapp, reboot. pushed SuperSU, rebooted to recovery and just flashed and reboot.

Nothing else done
[Xperia Z General] 5worthington:
Yeah there's something weird going on, I couldn't get any data either
[Xperia Z General] stoney73:
This thread is getting a little famous : http://www.androidheadlines.com/201...4-kitkat-rom-now-available-sony-xperia-z.html
[Xperia Z General] Nolimited:
I got 3G kind of working by going in and settings 3G as preferred network.

But it only connects to a universal 3G network, and not to my carriers.

And still no sign of LTE/4G.

3G is a dealbreaker, almost LTE also.

I want the ~60Mbit/s i get with 4G, not ca ~6Mbit/s that 3G gives me.
[Xperia Z General] Xanathoscl:
don't work gps =( can not find my location
[Xperia Z General] cavagnaro:
Maybe this ROM is for C6602 and not C6603...just guessing
[Xperia Z General] Nolimited:
The model-name says "Full android on c6603" :P

But yeah, maybe :(
[Xperia Z General] alex3305:
No, stop guessing. Otherwise you would get at least 2G and 3G.

If you don't have data, check your APN and APN settings. Your provider probably isn't on the list.

Regarding the DPI, just use whatever you want. I prefer stock so I leave mine on 480. But don't complain if an app is not compatible when you choose an non-Google alternative DPI (like 410). That's why PA was invented :).
[Xperia Z General] lhurtado:
Everything is working here with 3.2. I only had a problem with back key bit after a couple reboots it start working.
[Xperia Z General] Nolimited:
I must thank you, i had problems with 4G connection.

Your post got me thinking: "hm, maybe a reboot will fix my problem as well".

And it did :) got 4G connection now :)

So thanks ^^
[Xperia Z General] MattJaO3D:
Runs buttery smooth so far great job

Only problem is es file explorer don't recognize SD card1

Any chance add photpshere in cam

Also wats the best gapps to use

Anyways good work Guy's
[Xperia Z General] RdH2:
Xperia

can it only be used for Xperia Z???? Not any other Xperia model like ST18i Ray or so???? i know they are getting a KitKat ready for 2011 line models but you never know it works on other xperia then Z.....;)
[Xperia Z General] franklin93:
never quote the op,its too big :good:
[Xperia Z General] x10forevers:
First don't quote any OP

second it will run on only and only Xperia Z not any other model

Third Read OP than Quoting it...
[Xperia Z General] Hellscythe:
..

no. it is in the xperia z section because it works on other devices.

derp.

because clearly all the hardware is the same for all xperia devices

so all xperia roms are compatible with each other.

yes.
[Xperia Z General] RdH2:
bye bye now
[Xperia Z General] Hellscythe:
You must be having such a busy life to not understand the fundamentals :)
[Xperia Z General] greglord:
isn't there a way to upgrade this rom from cm 10.2?

if it is or not.. i'll upgrade it to 4.4 tho :) thank you.
[Xperia Z General] RdH2:
bye bye now...:)
[Xperia Z General] ckyy:
You just went full retard. Never go full retard.

[Xperia Z General] RdH2:
never going retard just following you all....being a good fellow hahahahahhaa
[Xperia Z General] pabx:
Maybe, maybe not: Nobody tried so far ;)

Keep in mind that 4.4 is a new MAJOR release, doing a full factory reset is therefore highly recommended.

But you could just give it a try (after doing a full backup of /data) - but don't be surprised if you get random crashes.
[Xperia Z General] tintinez:
Could you make a port for Xperia ZL, please?
[Xperia Z General] tjackbjorn:
Nothing is wrong with the rom. Dial this: *#*#4636#*#*, then go to-> Phone Information-> LTE/ GSM/ CDMA Auto (PRL)

This way you'll get LTE, but you have to make sure you have the right apn settings. That's you mission to find :) ;)

Edit: woops, saw you had solved it.. :)

Like I wrote above, make sure you have the right apn. If you have, then it will work :)

pabx, 3.2 is way smoother than 3.1 was! Thank you for a great rom.
[Xperia Z General] Radixtrator:
Loving this rom so far :) But who of you has any suggestions on how to make the rom a bit less laggy, especially the dropdown menu and the app drawer lag quite a bit for me :( Its not bad, but its something..
[Xperia Z General] juzz|NOR:
Just tried to boot up with ART instead of DVM.. Did not go so well.. Currently restoring the glory. :)

---------- Post added at 09:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:01 AM ----------

I have not seen this at all on my phone.. Which launcher are you using?

I have no lag at all on my now that i've updated to 3.2.
[Xperia Z General] exekias:
Get root

Download Lag fix from Play store

Use it

Profit

It MIGHT help, do a couple of reboots otherwise and clear your dalvik, im like the others

, no lag
[Xperia Z General] fards:
Gapps is on the first post.

I posted how to get photosphere working a couple of pages back, it's not aosp, so not buildable from source.
[Xperia Z General] Radixtrator:
I will try that :) Btw what other kernels can we use for the ROM?
[Xperia Z General] exekias:
I would advise against it. this is the only Kit Kat rom Ive seen, and the kernels haven't been modified to work with 4.4
[Xperia Z General] ZeRoWaR:
Has someone tested MHL? Or can someone please test if MHL does work?
[Xperia Z General] S@mbaman:
Good morning PABX,

Any pos.to make it for the Xperia Z1??
[Xperia Z General] pabx:
To all people begging me to port it to some other phone:

This is unlikely to happen - i can not port (well.. test) Android to a device that i do not own.

So if you want 4.4 on the Z1, you have to do it on your own (shouldn't be too much work if you use my repos as a base) or somehow get me a Z1.
[Xperia Z General] zeroed:
Congrats you just made me unlock my bootloader,flashed the rom,loving it so far.Good job mate !!!Everything works perfect.
[Xperia Z General] fards:
just having a quick play with the ART runtime,

other than the gapps struggling, what issues did you see?

The only ones I have crashing are the gapps, everything else works a treat.

Will try manually running dex2oat on priv-apps
[Xperia Z General] Radixtrator:
Same thing hapened to me mate :) ANd he actually made me save money, because im probably not buying a nexus 5 now^^
[Xperia Z General] zeroed:
My thoughts exactly to be honest about the nexus 5. :laugh:

Viper4android works btw greatly enhances the audio if anyone is wondering.Just installed it and works flawlessly.
[Xperia Z General] bariz143:
I had problem to connect to my network so i flashed back to cm10.2 and it was no problem to connect there. I use same apn settings with both but this rom doesnt let me connect to my network :S

I have Tele2 btw and it connects me to S Comviq

Edit : I found the problem. As soon as i turn on 4g it connects to another network. If i turn on only 3G it connects to Tele2 :S
[Xperia Z General] juzz|NOR:
My phone did not boot at all..
[Xperia Z General] Nolimited:
I don't know where you're from. I'm from Sweden, and here Tele2 and Comviq uses the same network and apn.

I have Comviq, but my apn says 4g.tele2.se :P
[Xperia Z General] bariz143:
Yes i know but it shouldnt say S Comviq on network. Sweden 3G or Tele2 not comviq .

My apn says 4g.tele.se also

Could you please look if your icon in quicksettins are red on the network??
[Xperia Z General] hary232:
awesome rom. unfortunately, BBM is not working in this rom.
[Xperia Z General] kamalmawa:
[MENTION=3911109]pabx[/MENTION] what's the reason why some apps won't recognize external SD ? Did something changed on Kit Kat mount point ?

Thanks
[Xperia Z General] pabx:
That's because Android 4.4 now requires an App to actually request read/write permissions for the external sdcard: http://developer.android.com/about/versions/android-4.4.html

It's 100% the fault of the app.

That's a known Bug of BBM: BBM Doesn't even work on the Nexus5
[Xperia Z General] bariz143:
Back to stock for now. Because CM10.2 and All the other roms work with my network when im on 4G.

But this rom doesnt. Hope someone can find a solution for this soon :P
[Xperia Z General] Zorua:
I'm on 3.1 and BBM's working fine here. Haven't updated yet, maybe it's something to do with 3.2?
[Xperia Z General] Nolimited:
4G works perfectly for me :)
[Xperia Z General] Xanathoscl:
no radiofm in this rom??
[Xperia Z General] Nolimited:
Screenrecord doesn't work tho
[Xperia Z General] bariz143:
Haha you dont get it my friend. I have 4G to. I have never seen comviq in my network before. It should say TELE2 and not S Comviq

This is how it should like. Had to flash back to cm10.2 to show you :D
[Xperia Z General] fards:
ok fac reset and re-flash

ART runtime working very nicely (takes a long time to boot while it dex2oat) and the XZ gets very warm while doing it, but so far so good, and quite a lot more responsive, which I didn't expect as build3.2 is pretty damn snappy anyway!
[Xperia Z General] fards:
try removing or commenting out the ro.telephony.default_network=9 in build.prop
[Xperia Z General] 5worthington:
I did and it refused to get any sort of data connection on 2G
[Xperia Z General] Nolimited:
Maybe they changes something in 4.4 so that the networks sometime get renamed?

Because that network if for both Comviq and Tele2, is has to contain metadata so that i can be identified as both Comviq Sweden and Tele2 SE.

So 4.4 might not read the metadata in the same order as older versions?

But as long as 4G works, what does it matter what it is named?
[Xperia Z General] Luinwethion:
Is also possible to restora an TWRP backup with adb or fastboot?
[Xperia Z General] bariz143:
Thats what i thougt to . Something to do with 4.4. Because when i turn on 3G i get Sweden Mobile instead of Tele2.

Something is wrong with 4.4 . I just want everything to be normal as before thats all.
[Xperia Z General] Nolimited:
But as i said, i might not be something that's wrong, but they might just have change the way they name the networks.

So i might be the same network as you get on Cm10.2, but 4.4 just has a different way of naming it.

It that case, if it works, that difference dose it do if the name isn't the same?
[Xperia Z General] bariz143:
Man its like buying a Nexus 5 and it says Nexus 4.

I want it right. But if you ask me something is still wrong. :D
[Xperia Z General] rodolfojr:
Can it be used on ZL, since they have pretty most the same hardware?
[Xperia Z General] juzz|NOR:
Do a backup, and try.

Worst case: Won't flash

2nd worst case: Boot Loop
[Xperia Z General] bariz143:
I wish i knew how to.
[Xperia Z General] Nolimited:
what? Did you get it to work? I can't find anything in that log that says either.
[Xperia Z General] fards:
nope not working yet
[Xperia Z General] F4113n:
About adb shell

Hello there!

I have tried to understand this adb shell run but i have no idea where do i find this adb shell.. is it in my phone somewhere or should it be installed in my pc somewhere?

I tried to find it from recovery but no terminal there and no terminal pre-installed in rom images.

I only have fastboot.exe and dll files for it. i tried to use that command line with it but ofc it doesn't include the commands.

so please little more info where do i get this adb shell(link maybe)? and how do i use it... Do i have to boot into fastmode like with fastboot.exe file or what?

I also tried to boot into bootloader but my phone doesn't react in any way after shutdown nor from recovery as i tried.

Is it also used with usb plugged?

and does this Gapps.tgz have to be in sdcard while you flash boot, system and userdata -images?

First i flashed only those images without gapps in sdcard and then i reflashed all with it but it didn't seem to work.

then i just took official Gapps package and flashed it using recovery after image flashes.

Thank you!
[Xperia Z General] FateNozomi:
Get this! http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html you will have the latest adb and fastboot together inside the platform-tools folder! :laugh:
[Xperia Z General] zeroed:
First of all your bootloader needs to be unlocked.You need to have adb drivers installed on your computer.After this is achieved read below.

You need to download latest android sdk mate.Its a .zip file which you extract somewhere for example C: . Here's how mine looks,inside that dir are fastboot adb and there also you need to copy gaps.tgz file and other .img files.

C:\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130219\sdk\platform-tools

After you do that you start cmd from your computer,put phone into fastboot mode,which is done by pressing volume up button and connecting it to pc usb while powered off (the phone ).You will get blue led on phone if succesfull.Start cmd on your windows computer,navigate to the correct path like the one i posted above and do what you gotta do :) .

Cheers.
[Xperia Z General] kamalmawa:
You don't have to download the whole damn sdk for adb & fastboot.. use this it's only 2Mb
