I don't really know. The rom is pretty damn fast though even with dalvik. I still have misplaced UI in settings though and chrome tends to chrash every now and then. This also did not happen a while ago.

[Xperia Tablet Z Original Android Development] blackassassinuk:
So after someone said ART was working then it wasn't, I gave it another try and bootlooped.

One thing I noticed was the tablet kept making a clicking noise, when I put my ear to it it turned out to be what looks like the proximity sensor on the top left corner making the noise.

So I force turned off tablet (Volume up + Power button held for like 10 seconds) booted to recovery and wiped cache and dalvik cache then tried again and this time no clicking noise, after about 5 minutes I was waiting for the 'Vanir is upgrading' screen and now all is well in ART.

Two nightlies ago had a weird bug where Bluetooth refused to turn on but next nightly fixed it and having the odd issue with clash of clans not loading until I reset tablet but all rest seems stable. Its now my regular daily ROM on two tablets and a phone.

Good work.
[Xperia Tablet Z Original Android Development] Jequan:
Thanks for sharing this. Managed to get ART working with this procedure.
[Xperia Tablet Z Original Android Development] GretaLewd:
Just to point out that to a native English speaker, "thanks a bunch" is a sarcastic way of saying "that was no help at all" lol :laugh:
[Xperia Tablet Z Original Android Development] blackassassinuk:
On ART now, getting occasional sound issues, like the sound is crashing slightly if that makes sense.... Kind of hard to describe but its not just on videos, had it on a few games and spotify. Read on another ROM about sound being given a higher priority fixes this, anyone know how to do this or managed to fix it?
[Xperia Tablet Z Original Android Development] GretaLewd:
So the sound problem is related to ART perhaps? Interesting.

I've just gone back to 4.3 because I thought it was a KitKat issue. I was running with ART - I didn't think of reverting to Dalvik :eek:

I'll have to try 4.4 with Dalvik :good:

[Xperia Tablet Z Original Android Development] Jequan:
Yes.
[Xperia Tablet Z Original Android Development] lupick:
can you confirm that sound issue has been solved on dalvik ?
[Xperia Tablet Z Original Android Development] GretaLewd:
Because of the feedback I had (see posts above) from others saying they had the problem on Dalvik also, I haven't bothered trying :(

I've gone back to a 4.3 PAC ROM. No sound problem and can also watch Flash without using workarounds :)

Maybe when I get time I'll try another 4.4 non-CM based ROM - though not many about for Tablet Z.

Next time I think I'll buy a Google device for more support

UPDATE : Out of all the Tablet Z ROMs, the only one I've tried that doesn't have audio stutter (usually happens when plaing youtube) is Fidelity. Someone on the CM11 thread said it is because of mods in the Meow kernel used by Fidelity. I don't have the skill to investigate this but it would be great if someone could introduce the same fix in other ROM kernels.

I've used full PA gapps and it seems to be working.

But the tablet doesn't receive SMS messages any more. It worked fine with the stock rom.

I've installed handcent SMS and I can send and receive SMS with it, but I want to use hangouts as SMS app which doesn't work.

Do you think it would be possible to get a pollux_windy build for Commotio?

Apps not starting after update to 5.0

Hi there,

I just updated the lollipop version ota. When I was asked in cwm: "ROM may flash stock recovery on boot. Fix?" I chose: "Yes". Then I was warned that "Root Access possibly lost. Fix?" I again chose "Yes".

After booting and after the apps were updated I am stuck at starting the apps. Was waiting for half an hour, but I can't get past this screen. Any ideas here, please?

Edit: Okay, I'm really screwed here I think... tried to reboot and got stuck at the vanir boot screen. Unable to enter recovery and when I connect the tablet to my computer and start the flashtool it says that root access is denied. Would be happy for any suggestions...
[Xperia Tablet Z Original Android Development] Jequan:
Oh a lollipop ROM by vanir. Vanir rom is one of the ROMs i used for a long period of time. I will give this a go and report back. I am curious if sound works on this one.

Edit: Same as cyanogen: Broken sound. The AOSP 5.0 is best with single speaker sound so far but that rom has a broken kernel that sucks your battery dry because of one core running on max all the time.

No lollipop for daily use yet sadly.

I hope they keep at it though.
[Xperia Tablet Z Original Android Development] pangiotis24:
ok so no speakers working

but when on headphones do you have sound?
[Xperia Tablet Z Original Android Development] Jequan:
Sorry i allready put the backup of my 4.4 rom on the tablet again!

I am 99% sure it wont work with headphones though because youtube and netflix wont work. Youtub just produces a clicking noise and then turns black.

I think the sounddriver is broken.

[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shangrila500:
Are you running a stock ROM? If you're running CM that's where your problem will be, CM doesn't have HDMI support on any device.

If you're running stock and a generic MHL to HDMI adapter doesn't work then Sony may have a proprietary adapter that you have to use like with Samsung devices.

Please post a link to the one you bought.

I remember from a while back that there was 2 versions of the wizard. One was the one that we are seeing now as the qtek9100 and the kjam and there was one that looked like the apache(cdma version) but it did not have the aerial stub so it could not of been the apache. Does anyone know if there will be a different looking wizard being made that looks similar to the apache? I am quite sure I like the apache design a bit better but I am looking for a GSM device.

I know what you mean , I remember seeing the thread somewhere when info was very scetchy. The pictures we saw if I have you right where the K-Jam or Wizzard and the Apache although minus the arial. The first shots I saw of these were like this . Saying that though Mobilefun.co.uk swear their K-Jam unit will be CDMA even after speaking to them and sending them the Imate spec sheet .. If so then it's the closest guarded secret this century.

The Apache has just been released on Sprint in the states .. You lucky things :lol: I think though the Apache is now a bigger device than was speculated .. Could be wrong though
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] audiblefrequency:
yeah that is the one. i am really looking forward to the wizard since it seems to have everything i am after with the exception of built in GPS which i will sadly have to live without.

it seems like the units that are coming out are all in the qtek 9100 style which i am not too crazy about. i plan on buying a wizard the second it comes out but i would like to buy the latter version if possible. trouble is that i am not sure if i will be able to contain myself from buying the qtek 9100 once it comes out. especially since we have not seen any of the companies use the latter version as of yet. who knows when it is going to come out or even if it ever will.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ShALLaX:
I always thought the alternative styles were prototypes. I do remember seeing different versions in the FCC database but the only difference was that one had a camera, the other didnt (to make the phone acceptable in areas where cameras are forbidden).

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laehtis:
Hey all!

First, I'm not a noob. I've flashed many phones succesfully and so on. I just say this to prevent "did you tried to flash stock rom" asks.

So, here's my problem history. I flashed MG4 Samsung stock rom. I've backed up my efs long time ago with Omega rom Aroma installer.

Then I flashed Temasek's CM 10.2 build. Working fine.

Then, I accidentally flashed XXUFME7 modem without thinking that I have efs v2. So, no network, imei still here. No problem, back to XXEMG4 modem, but now I notice that all other networking works, but I can't receive calls. So, full back to stock XXEMG4 with odin.

Still, no network, IMEI good, serial number 0000000 but when I changed to cm 10.2 serial number is there so no problem.

So, I can't get no network on any rom I try.

And whenever I flash stock rom with odin (tried XXEMG4 and 5) rom is very odd. It boots straight to the starting screen (no welcome screens,google settings etc.) and it shows strange information screen on start screen (see attachments). I've never encountered screen like this.

What could be the problem? Help appreciated:) Thanks!

Hello,

I was hoping to get some help with installing Google Apps and rooting ZTE Geek V975. It's an Intel Medfield device powered by Intel Atom Z2580. The device works great, but it's all in Chinese and I couldn't find any information about rooting and installing Google Play services.

I tried several rooting kits I found here, but they all failed to gain root privileges. I guess there is a x86 specific su binary, but I don't know where to get it from.

I was also able to install a Google Services framework and the Google Play apk, but it says it has no connection, same goes with Google+ and Google Drive. Other Google apps such as Google Maps and Google Translate worked well. I tried flashing a Google apps zip file from recovery, but it errored out. So far all zip files except from vendor firmware are failing from ZTE Geek's recovery. I couldn't find any custom recovery or ROM for the device.

Any idea how to make this excellent device usable outside of China? Thanks for your time.

I spent a few days trying to install Google Play the cyanogenmod way, following instruction on a spanish site similar to what other's have posted here. The idea is to mount the readonly systemfolder using the bootloader and insert/write systemapps into system/apps

I succeeded but for some reason launching google play was killed instantly by some resident app on the phone.

On the MIUI forum somebody called Eric Xiang built a google play apk that kills the resident blocker and installs googleplay !

xttp://en.miui.com/thread-3998-1-1.html

I now have a fully operational V975 (4.2.2) with the latest official build B06 and google play.

Out of the box the phone is unlocked but not rooted.

To root it, install xttps://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/15286951/update.zip using the bootloader (vol+ and power on, when v975 wakes up release power but keep vol+ pressed for a few seconds more, then browse to update.zip. Obviously you preloaded the zip on a sdcard.

If ZTE release firmware B08, you'll have to root it again.

Battery life is excellent, as well as speed, camera, GPS fix is instant. I had a iocean X7 that i killed trying to get the gps working, but v975 feels a lot faster vs the X7's MTK 6589 quadcore 1.5ghz. Granted there's less pixels to move around.

One caveat : iCoyote does not install because of binary incompatibility ? This is an x86 device.

I also discovered the existence of AmazonMarket. Not as complete as GAPPS, but a nice fallback market. And most of the google stuff is installable by apk anyway, so living without GAPPS was not as bad as it looked.

Thx to Eric Xiang, his app prolly opens up all androidphones to googleplay, chinese phones can flood the rest of the world now

the above was two days of research guys, enjoy it !
