[General Questions and Answers] SugarTree:
I would really like to create my own themes & icons & Skins.

I used to theme my Blackberry.....But that was at least 5 years ago and I know this is a whole different animal.

I have the ADT Bundle Installed.....Signed up as a developer etc etc....Im all set up I think...

Now that I did all that.....Where do I go from here??

Desperately trying not to sound like a noob. baha....

Hi

Can anyone tell me if this is right, I have a mda compact on t-mobile if I was to flash with the o2 mini rom would this turn it in to a o2 mini so I could use it on o2?

also can any one tell me what the lastest english o2 mini rom & ext rom verion is?

many thanks
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] LumpiStefan:
No, it's not right.....

If you could use the device with o2 depends not on the ROM. It depends if the dveice is locked by t-mobile or if it's unlocked......

So, if your device is unlocked, you can use the o2 network with any ROM available for the Magician.......

Latest english version should be 1.12.00 .....

Stefan
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] easy123:
please help

Thanks for info,

The mda is currently simlocked to t-mobile.

So even if i was to change the rom to o2 mini this would not mean i could use my o2 sim? is this correct

If so is there any way I could use my t-mobile mda compact with an o2 sim?

Thanks

[Rom][20/08] SkyDragon XZL V2.0 (C6506) |4.2.2|New .244 (Locked Bootloaders)|Smoothness-Sweetness SkyDragon Style

(THIS ROM IS PROPERTY OF SkyDragon Team)

Rom Base on last 10.3.1.A.0.244 Unbranded Generic US (Thanks to dragonesdenano, patensas and HackitZ for teaching me and letting me steal some code, hehehe.)

For Locked Bootloaders Must be on .244 stock before flashing
[Sony Xperia ZL] alainmona:
This looks promising, thank you so much for dedicating time and effort ! I'll test out the ROM once I get back home and have access to internet. Only thing I ask, do you mind if I remove some apps you included since I'm a huge Nazi on wakelocks and battery consumers haha. Anyways thanks once again man!
[Sony Xperia ZL] patensas:
Another chapter added to the Skydragon range. Good to see you have taken the lead and started to support another device. Keep it up mate and remember we're ready to back you up any way we can :cool:

[Sony Xperia ZL] ATRIXXIRTA:
Do we HAVE to be on a locked bootloader?? lol
[Sony Xperia ZL] pm2gonzales:
No, the only reason you'd ever need an unlocked bootloader is for a ROM that needs a custom kernel (ie. CM10/10.1/10.2 usually need custom kernel).
[Sony Xperia ZL] ATRIXXIRTA:
OK thought so. Just wanted to make sure there wasn't a specific requirement for whatever reason.

I don't know that we can use it with 1920x1080, but I can try, if it works, I will create a "modded" version of the rom only for people that really want it.

I'll ask the modders in the team, see what they think and what can be done.

Very thankful for the tip, the point is to make as many people feel comfortable with the rom as possible. :good:

[Sony Xperia ZL] vette95:
I'm almost sure you can use this with all the versions .244 (C6502, 6503 and 6506), and you can totally flash with unlocked bootloader, there is no change in the kernel, so it doesn't matter.

Go ahead and let me know how it goes. :fingers-crossed:

since u are making mods i thought to make things more interesting maybe u could add the honami home launcher by ra3al or zeroinfinity .. just a matter of permission from them :) just a suggestion don't mind ;)
[Sony Xperia ZL] alainmona:
Honestly this ROM is absolutely incredible, it has stunned me so far on its stability and smoothness! I love it, only thing I ask for whenever you do some mods is for a reboot function in the power menu. Anyways thanks for your hard work and dedication I appreciate it a lot ! This is so smooth its unbelievable it feels too good to be true xD

Edit: I found a method of installing a reboot function via xposed framework

Guys, I have just been informed of 2 issues by other users of the ROM.

To be honest, I haven't experienced any of them, but I would like you guys to post it in the thread.

1 is a wake lock issue which I understand has to do with the 244 base itself, I have not have any issue with it, but promise to look deep into it tomorrow as soon as I have time.

2 there seems to be an issue with sound enhancement not working for some users in Walkman. For me it's working great, loud and crisp audio all around, but, I believe it could be happening to some other users, again, please post it here as well. If you can post screen shots and even Logcat, even better.

Thank you all for your support on this ROM, we are striving to get a perfect rom for our ZLs.

[Sony Xperia ZL] viniciusnc:
Oh, all right. i'll do it soon. My C6503 is unlocked bootloader. Can i install this ROM?!
[Sony Xperia ZL] vette95:
Yes, it will work just fine.

Make sure you are on 244 before you flash, and you also need to wipe Data/Cache/Dalvik.

Hope you enjoy.

If you want, wait until the end of the day today, I will be releasing V2.0 by the end of day. Working on it right now.
[Sony Xperia ZL] vette95:
I really would like to help there, and I promise to research it and add if I hit a winner. But since my company email does not require a PIN at all, it will be hard for me to test if it works for Sony. If you want to test it, I will gladly try the AOSP version while I research a workaround on stock soy mail app.
[Sony Xperia ZL] weezill:
I tried the AOSP version, and exchange kept force closing.

RomAUR 7 has the exchange bypass, but it's on an older build.

Hi guys, sorry about this, I am having very bad internet issues right now.

I already called my ISP and they said it's a massive DNS issue they are having.

I will be uploading tomorrow (or tonight if it's fixed).

[Sony Xperia ZL] vette95:
Sure thing. A rom has to be to the user's taste. Most apps I added (if not all) you can just uninstall after flashing, the rest will zip align after reboot.

Thanks for trying our rom. Hope you like it.

[Sony Xperia ZL] vette95:
Try using the greenify app and hibernate whatever you don't need, that'll save lots of battery and data waste....
[Sony Xperia ZL] alainmona:
Yeah I was thinking of that yesterday but I didn't want to stress you out with more stuff to work on man xD I think in order to create an incremental you'd have to isolate the updates (only) that you are making via cwm flashable zip. Such as a patch like update if I am correct :P

Yeah I love greenify, only problem I have with it is that on our Xperia Home Launcher the widget for the Hibernate Now isn't even listed or recognized. Yet in Nova and Trebauchet its instantly noticed. Also I recommend the donated version for greenifying system apps :P yet its a bit dangerous if you don't know what your greenifying huh xD. Anyways man I wanted to let you know I'm reading some editing apks threads and that thread you pm'd me which I'd need to practice on my laptop but I'm not near it at the time so I'd have to wait a bit more lol. Keep up the good work bro! Can't wait to test out v2 man :D oh also this might seem off-topic/random but do they have croquettas where your at xD

SkyDragon Boot Animation

AMAZING!!!

My phone is a C6503 model, i've flashed C6506 stock before installing this ROM and wi-fi isn't working -.-
[Sony Xperia ZL] alainmona:
I assume it works fine with unlocked bootloaders, the only difference between locked and unlocked bootloaders is that you can flash kernels while a locked bootloader cannot.

Did you backup your data via CWM, then factory reset/wipe the entire phone before installing .244 then after installing root and cwm recovery for the newest firmware did you clean flash the ROM onto your Xperia? Then after you can take your previous backup and advance restore the data only in order to get all your apps, contacts, messages, etc. Unless you use Titanium Backup method which is rather the same.
[Sony Xperia ZL] viniciusnc:
i only need to backup the data or the boot and system too?
[Sony Xperia ZL] spamam1:
Hello,

Guessing just a cosmetic issue.. Installed v2, but in Settings.. About phone.. Build number, says v1.

Just a build.prop tweak?

ROM itself is good so far, thank you.

Edit: typo
[Sony Xperia ZL] vette95:
Yeah, I messed up the name on build.prop.

But it's tough to replace the name and then re-upload 950MB, LOL.

It will be fixed for next version, I'm currently trying to get mods and make it swifter by taking advantage of RAM.
[Sony Xperia ZL] vette95:
Backup everything (system, cache, data, etc) then after full wipe and flash, boot to new ROM (twice) and then advance restore ONLY data.
[Sony Xperia ZL] viniciusnc:
Now it's my 3G connection that's not working, wi-fi is normal!
[Sony Xperia ZL] vette95:
go to settings/more.../Mobile Networks/Access Point Names, and see if your APN to your carrier is correct and activated.

What's your country and carrier?

Maybe it's missing in the APN list, so that I can add it.

According to Google translate, it should look something like this in portuguese:

settings / mais ... / Redes Móveis / ponto de acesso Nomes
[Sony Xperia ZL] ellcid:
This rom is 6506, so you have to add the apn by yourself.

or you can try by (configurações/mais/configurações de internet) this method will add your apn and 3g will work
[Sony Xperia ZL] alainmona:
This person could also use build.prop editor to edit the version name xD its only cosmetic though. It truly doesn't matter or benefit your phone in any other way :P Also that sounds sick, can't wait to see your mods :)

I ported a systemui mod my post is located right here
[Sony Xperia ZL] viniciusnc:
Podemos falar em português? ._.

Eu acessei as configurações -> Xperia -> Configurações para Internet e meu problema foi resolvido;

Can we talk portuguese?

I acessed Configs -> Xperia -> Internet Configs and my problem was solved.
[Sony Xperia ZL] vette95:
I'm glad it was solved mate. I'm sorry, I only speak Spanish and English, but I will surely use google translate if I don't understand anything, hehe

Please tell me who your carrier is (Claro, Orange, Telus) to get the correct settings and add them to the next version.

Hope you enjoy the rom :victory:

Flashed Rom runs awesome I love it. Only thing was no rogers apn had to add manually. People don't get picture messages apn is all there not sure what the issue is
[Sony Xperia ZL] vette95:
Hi man.

What version of the ZL do you have? It's weird only some people are having issues with pureXaudio, most it's working fine, I would say even TOO loud.

Did you fully wipe? (data/dalvik/cache). Maybe try fixing permissions from CWM would do the trick. All I have in purexaudio is:

Equalizer set to purexPsychoRealism and in setting only purexintenseBlast is enabled. Have yet to try other settings.

As for the lags, only thing I can think of is also the wipes and fix permissions, mine is flying. I'll still take a look into the init.d and bild.prop tweaks, see if maybe I broke something.
[Sony Xperia ZL] vette95:
I haven't used MMS at all, I'm thinking it could be an APN issue. I'll look up current APN for Rogers and compare to APN xml file, maybe something has changed or something is wrong in file. I'll let you know in a few minutes.
[Sony Xperia ZL] zombiej79:
Found the apn.xml file it has rogers pan it's missing the ltemobile.apn but when I flashed my phone the apn area is blank
