I think it is to people that not have a CWM installed. Example Stock 4.3 without root and CWM AND have a Blocked Bootloader.

If you have CWM/TWRP then do a Full Wipe and Flash 201 directly.

If you have Stock 4.3 with Unlocked Bootloader then flash a Advanced Kernel and flash this awesome ROM.

Good Luck.

About The v3.0.0 Of eXistenZ Ultra Rom:

After v1.0 of eXistenZ Ultra (At the time, it was wonderful) ;I installed v3.0 in cwm easily!:o and the rom work perfect and work every things. But the free ram than the stock .201 is Less! :rolleyes:

The xperia Home from z2 Is an excellent and very smooth!

Big thanks to you buddy... ;)

Okay, I flashed yesterday. If I leave my phone on charge overnight and I caliber once in the morning, I'll just have to continue to use my phone to calibrate the battery end? Or do I repeat the calibration for several days?

What application to calibrate the battery do you recommend?

Thank you for your great ROM, my Xperia SP reborn! :victory:

IN FRENCH / EN FRANÇAIS :

Okay, je l'ai flashé hier. Si je laisse mon téléphone en charge toute la nuit et que je le calibre une seule fois dès le matin, j'aurai juste à continuer à utiliser mon téléphone pour que la calibration de la batterie termine ? Ou dois-je recommencer la calibration pendant plusieurs jours ?

Quelle application pour calibrer la batterie me conseillez-vous ?

Merci pour votre superbe ROM, mon Xperia SP renait ! :victory:

1) All "smart" things will never work because we don't have requested hardware.

2) Answering machine, I am even wondering if it works on Z2...

3) Lockscreen need too many works, we must rewrite all keyguard management !

I have already ported all apps and features, there is nothing else ;)

[Xperia SP Android Development] niaboc79:
Thanks for link ;)

For the ram you are wrong... Nothing have changed between stock and eXistenZ and I haven't added any app who is running in backgrounds.

According to that, in. 201 Sony have reduced the number of apps allowed to run in background. User feels that the amount of free ram is better like that. Nice trick...

can i use Philz touch CWM that use vol up to enter?
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
Thanks for quick reply!

I've just found another bug:

Multiple users and restricted profiles aren't supposed to work on phones. I tried them a few minutes ago, and:

1. Creating a profile or user is working fine.

2. There is no way to switch between the profiles, so the only way to get to the main profile is rebooting, and the only way to get to the chosen profile is by configuring it via settings.

So it's not that usable and sometimes could confuse users. I would prefer deleting them from settings.
[Xperia SP Android Development] niaboc79:
No app needed, use your phone normally during a few days ;)
[Xperia SP Android Development] niaboc79:
Not yet fully usable ;)

HARD RESET - press power button together with OFF button (at the back) for a few seconds.

Now go and re-install...:victory:

[Xperia SP Android Development] echevierra:
so i tried to flash 3.0.0 existenz with Philz ... later it give me symlink error ... and then my phone stop at sony logo (not boot loop i suppose)

and as far i know ... my phone situation is :

-stuck at sony logo

-cannot enter recovery (no vibration)

-i can still hold power off button

-already did re-flash .266 and didn't happen anything

and when i flash that rom, i realized this problem has been posted AFTER i did the flashing thing ... it was bit too late for me

if there's no solution .. i guess i have to say RIP to my phone?

do you have any solution about this problem?
[Xperia SP Android Development] headache59:
I had problems entering into CWM or TWRP in PureXperience Sirius. Luckily Philz touch was working. Did the 3 wipes and installed, and viola - I'm in existenz ultra-man...

First boot was slooow. Reboot and now works nicely. Tested the dual recovery (vol up and down) - works great.

Thanks. Will report if there are crashes...

PS: so far CWM had always been faithful in all my ROMS and rooting adventure. This is my first try with Philz touch and I am already impressed.

Fresh install and I got 382MB of RAM free :good:
[Xperia SP Android Development] Androidkeeda:
Same problem as mine.... U also did "system " format??

Well i submitted my sp to service centre so i cant try as headache29 said.. Try to hold power button and back power point for a while and let it switch off completely... Then try to flash. 254 and continue the process... And plz report it get switched off or not by that method...

CAn't get it working!!

I was using Exitenz v2.15 so as the instructions said,I simply went to recovery and wiped data and flashed the v3 of Existez, but then the phone didn't even start up ( total black), so i flashed .201 stock =>root=>cwm=>flash rom=> phone dousn't start up(total Black).

so can any one provide me how to do a fresh installation here?!
[Xperia SP Android Development] niaboc79:

Follow install instructions.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Revontheus:
Well it's best to go back to 4.1 to avoid any bugs I mean it would be more frustrating flashing this ROM coming from your current ROM and getting a bootloop as the result

So either way go back to 4.1.2 to avoid any bugs and use CWM not TWRP :wink:

there's no Tasks app in app drawer (it's in system/app and in Settings/Apps/All) and you can't configure Tasks from Calendar app

the Voice Balloon app can't be used (it's in system/app but you can't install it and it's not in Camera or in Settings/Apps/All)

there's a visual bug in Movies and Walkman when you use the 48 DPI OSB (only in landscape)

Hello,

I have tried 6 times this 2 days to install eXistenZ 3.0. It always failed. First time from 2.1.5 and TWRP > failed. Second time from original .254 firmware and TWRP > failed. From .254 and CWM > failed. From .254 and Philz > failed. From .254 without any wipe and TWRP > failed and finally 10 minutes ago from .254 and CWM without any wipe > failed.

I tried to flash one time [ROM] [LB & UB] [4.3] Rooted, Deodexd & Zipaligned Stock .201 V1.1 with .254 and CWM > succes.

My opinion is the method of installation of this rom is not very clear and TWRP is a very poor recovery (no touch when flash and standby mode when we don't touch the screen).

I am familiar with flash of rom on many Sony devices but this rom is awful to install. Sorry for that, you can treat me of Noob or whatelse you want.

Many thanks to you Niaboc79 for your job.

The best rom so far but I have only tried Ultimate Black, PureXperience and CM10.2 (LBL)

FTP server crashed on Ultimate and Pure but I loaded it successfully in EU3 a sec ago.

I got between 200~300 Ram free on PureXperience - EU3 consistently gives me >300MB, and EU3 is even more 'bloated'...:laugh: I can already imagine its zippiness when I get through with these bloats.

[No, I am not dishing the other ROMs but just simply want to point out the stability - for my purpose, both Black/Pure and EU3 are very similar (new to android cooked roms, so I must assume that Existenz is the proud grandad of all these roms...) - I really appreciate these devs' effort to make alternative roms available to us]

A snag - I test out a movie with sony 'movie' against a third party - sony's is just as good and the audio is better. Unfortunately, every once in a while there is this green screen covering 1/3 of the screen that flickers in and out for a few seconds in certain segment. EU3 issue or Sony's?

Again, EU3 made me a believer in cooked roms. At this point in time I have not tested out with the usual apps at work (weekends) - most roms rarely last 2 days with me, always reverting to 4.1.2 rooted. EU3 gives me the gui of my choice (loves the Z2 look, and quick setting), speed of 4.1.2 (except when it is downloading something) and the smoothness of the gui. But the bottom line for me is "stability" due to work.

Gad - I am already sounding like a salesman here...but I'm really i-m-p-r-e-s-s-e-d (with apologies to those who are having troubles installing - I have been lucky so far... that or the rumours are true - all devices that pass QC were sent to Singapore. The rest went to you:cool: - just kidding)

Many thanks niaboc79!:good::good::good:

[MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION],

You forgot to add "run_program("system/xbin/busybox", "install", "-s", "/system/xbin")" in the updater_script.

That's why the applets are not symlinked.

And if someone wants to fix it yourself:

su
mount -o remount,rw /system
/system/xbin/busybox --install -s /system/xbin
mount -o remount,ro /system

Run it with a terminal emulator.
