I highly suggest everyone (who can) to do the same, I know (I'm a dev too) behind this there is a ton of work, this rom is the most updated and with few sweets things like kitkat apps ... he deserve it ;)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] DjTony90:
i had the same problem & i get it resolved by installing AFTER INSTALLING THE ROM, the dual recovery AGAIN! ( thanks to auras )

[Xperia Z1 Android Development] vtec303:
hello mate, thank you very much for the awesome update, everything working nicely for me with no problems including the camera and the rom is quick. I was wondering if you have a look at the link below this guy has done an awesome job on toggles and is compatible with 4.2.2 but not for Z1 though, I flashed it and got a syetemUI force close, I am sure it can be tweaked to our phones, Kind Regards.

auras or ANYONE else who knows... im wearing this rom... is there any way to O.C my phone ?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] kkd28:
oc is something with kernel work. you will have to unlock your bootloader and flash custom kernels. cant see any point in oc this phone, it is already smooth enough.

auras76, i just installed this (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47519003&postcount=366) for transparent status and nav bar in Nova launcher, everything`s just fine, the bars are transparent now, but because of the new "Menu" buttom the "Back" button bacome too far from my finger, haha )) Man, could you, please, swap "Back" buttom with "Tasks" buttom ? It would be great if order of the buttoms will be (from the left to the right): Tasks > Home > Back > New menu buttom.

Would you, please, do that ?

Or just remove the "Menu" buttom ;)

Hey Auras,

Nice to see you here too and congratulations on this ROM, it's awesome...

It will be my daily untill the unlocked BL problems get solved!

Hi!

Sorry if this has been discussed before, haven't read the entire thread yet.

My xperia z1 pops up with the following message upon boot: android is upgrading programs. It counts from 220-252. It does this on every boot.

Is this normal behaviour?.

I have installed the gravitybox and odex script in addition to the Rom.

Freddy
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] auras76:
On odex its normal.

Volume boost v2 its up on themes section.

I can't seem to extract the ROM. it keeps giving me error message. I downloaded directly.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] DennisDD78:
Auras76, sometimes there's a glich with status bar, please, take a look at the pic

This is a stock deodexed rom.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] DjTony90:
why u guys want custom roms ? Battery in custom roms sucks... really... Stamina mode helps A LOT
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] DAddYE:
Can't wait to have KitKat and 4.3 freaking api for better notifications. Right now things like notifications counter or simply the smartwatch sucks a ton of battery.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] B1nny:
Do you realise that Aura's ROM is a custom ROM as well?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] kkd28:
it is based on stock
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] B1nny:
But it's still a custom ROM.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] DjTony90:
Stock Based... i mean why guys want CM BASED.... that havent that divine stamina mode...

I came to Z1 from Galaxy S2 and believe me i understand the great job that stamina mode do.... very well...

Other than that, people want to run their OWN software, they compiled themselfs, they've written themselfs. They want to run a fully Open Source OS. That is why people want AOSP/AOSP-based roms.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] peteri8706:
Hey guys, got my head around the Z1 now and all is as good as it should be.

Quick question. I turn wifi off to save battery. I don't mind using data to surf the net, I'm on a 3gb plan per month. But, after surfing for less than a minute wifi turns on by itself on my 'known' network. Is this normal? I find I have to turn it off manually (again to conserve battery) because wifi tends to stay on even when the phone is asleep (and I have it set to 'wifi on on when plugged in') I've never seen this before on other branded phones except for this Z1.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] B1nny:
Check the "Power Management" settings in the settings app. It has an option for location-based wifi, maybe that option is turned on?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] amm009uk:
Is anyone using Gravity Box app? The status bar--> quicksettings don't show up although other options do work.

First time trying it do I might be on the wrong path.

Generally what is the battery life for most people on this ROM? I'm on monox's ROM and I got 4 hours screen time at best on 60% brightness... I even did battery calibration but it didn't help...
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] soulzero:
5h+ screen on time for me. Yesterday I had 6h flat, heavy use of browser, music, downloading, that's data on and wifi.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Sean473:
Do you know how to flash kernel?

P.S:I rebooted after installing ROM and its bootlooping now.. How to stop this? Also how to install kernel? HELPPPPP!
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] soulzero:
I did it with a guess, I come from Samsung galaxy which is much easier to flash so don't ask me m8.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Sean473:
Anyone helppppppppppppp?

---------- Post added at 11:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 PM ----------

Ok all issues fixed but how to flash kernel?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] peteri8706:
If you are doing this through flash tool and flash tool is coming up with an error, go into flash tool folder and clear the 'prepared' folder (or something called like this) - all contents found in that folder.

Then in flash mode, flash the 257 kernel. This should do it.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Sean473:
How do I flash the kernel zip?

Edit: I'm currently installing ROM... After installing, how do I restart and then install the kernel? I really am getting stuck at these steps :D
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] peteri8706:
Get the phone back into flash mode and flash per my steps above (clear flash tool folder) and you'll be right.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Sean473:
I'm talking crap... Ok I flashed kernel but bootlooping... Wtf?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] peteri8706:
Ok. That's the issue.

Look for Xperia Z1 C6903_14.1.G.2.257_unbranded.ftf (assuming you have the c6903 - check your model and download the correct 257 file) in the whole Z1 forum and flash this after flashing the ROM from Flash Tool and you'll be good to go.

---------- Post added at 01:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:04 AM ----------

Did you flash the right one for your phone model. Also clear cache/dalvik, might help if it is the right kernel.

Good luck.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Sean473:
Its failing.. Wtf... This really pissing me off... I've followed every step... Tried flashing kernel but keeps bootloading....
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] peteri8706:
You might have failed the process first time around. Clear the flash tool prepared folder and start the 'whole' process again if it keeps bootlooping even with the 257 kernel.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Sean473:
How do you clear this? Restart flashtool?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] peteri8706:
No, you have to go into the folder on the hard drive and delete the folder' contents yourself.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Sean473:
I am a tool.. Kept selecting the unlocked bootloader option.. Its working perfectly now lol...
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] peteri8706:
Glad you sorted it out.

I had issues from the 'power device down and select no to enable init.d support'. Had tried everything to flash 257 kernel, and from Flash Tool saw it was something to do with 'preparation of file process'. So finally worked out to clear the folder manually, and it worked!! Flash tool is great but doesn't say much when an error occurs, so personal trial and error prevailed.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Sean473:
My main issue with this ROM is that there is no options under the mobile network for LTE only as monox rom did... [MENTION=2112104]auras76[/MENTION] if you can take note and plz add it in the next release I'd be grateful... Because of the way LTE and calls work, I need that option to force LTE data sometimes...

Guys I want to how it make my battery better

Most users of this rom are saying they get 4-5 hours of screen time. Me on the other am getting max 2.5-3 hours of screen time. This is what I am doing.

-full charge after the battery goes below 20%

-have the display set to auto brightness and with the mannual slider set to around 25-30% only.

-I don't use Google now

-use wifi around 60% of the time and 3g for the rest.

-I don't use key vibration, only use vibration for ringtones and notifications

-maximum gaming done for 1 hour and that also one game only, Dead Trigger.

- browsing below average use

- phone calls below average use since I am leave from work :)

I will post my battery usage screen shot after today's use.

So guys any hints or advise.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] amm009uk:
I'm still on 3.2 by the way...
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] DjTony90:
Use titanium backup delete bloatware, and use greenify to hibernate running apps.. Then close automatic sync... That's what I do and I get excellent battery life...
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Sean473:
Faceplam.. I know that.. What I said was that I want an LTE only option just like there is a GSM only and Wcdma only option...
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] jagdesh:
Already using TB auto backup feature.

Downloaded Greenify app and hibernated some running apps and some more from the all apps menu. Did not install the exposed version so the system apps cannot hibernate.

Can't stop auto sync since need my email to sync automatically

Hopefully these new change will help save some battery for me.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] christian_a_torres:
I have installed this without any issues except the loss of vibration. Doesn't matter what settings I have there is no vibration at startup nor any vibration with keypresses or anything. Anyone experiencing this issue?

There are updates available for Xposed Installer(v. 2.3.1 > 2.4) and App Settings(v. 1.5 > 1.6), but it's not possible to update them via download tab in Xposed Installer. The installer says, there's a conflict with the signature; I think, that's because both apps are implemented in the ROM respectively the system settings.

Is there another way to update them?

This rom does not work for c6906, unless aura decide to input an option for c6906 unlocked/locked during the aroma installer. Phone will bootloop on sony screen. Any changes aura?

Update -

Flashing complete, and successful!

The only problem now, is to access LTE network.

If you flash c6906 .257 baseband. you will get a bootloop.

When selecting from aroma installer, check off c6903 settings. not c6902.

Aura, any details on how to get c6906 basebands to work on your rom, i want to access LTE.

Update again,

LTE working but sometime. Random reboots
