On 2.1?

Which systemUI are you using?

If you choose transparent UI (from Aroma)

just open zip and go to folder IHackers/mods/systemIU/stock

And replace that systemUI.apk with your in system/app (don't forget permissions)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Furma:
yes, using 2.1 + Xperia Home launcher

problem occurs several days after clean install of ROM

i press home button and then it lags, whole UI crashes (including background apps) and sometimes it cant recover (keeps crashing, phone becomes pretty much unusable, cant enter apps and recent apps menu) and i have to restart phone for it to be okay again
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] :
i am about to test the 3.0 with etc from Monx .136 ROM i'll report back after test is done! but DAMN NOW THE ROM IS 1.63Go :o

EDIT: [MENTION=4976309]iHackers[/MENTION] i have finally got a fully working 3.0 using etc from Monx ROM i was able to have my C6903 boot without any bootloop! also the sim card is now fully fonctional.

only problem here is the size of the rom but anyways it's working great
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] iHackers:
Thanks for letting me know. It would be great if you could post a detailed test report too. Don't worry about the size problem, it won't cross 800 MB in the public release.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] :
Ok man i'll play a little bit with this till the night and report back to you :)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Ferranza:
Yes, please, more details and where did you get a 1.6 gb rom? I have a link that point to a 798 mb rom...
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] :
3.0 is 800MB if you replace the ETC that is on 3.0 with one like i did from Monx ROM (you can also use the one from NUT's thread as long as it's a .136 ETC) it will give you a 3.0 rom and a 1.6Gb size! :)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Ferranza:
Thank you, but I replace with Mr flashable zip

Use this etc folder instead of the one that you are using and let me know if it works fine for you.

[Xperia Z1 Android Development] :
Luckily, there is an app for that :D

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nkahoang.screenstandby

Best part of this app, and you will love this, is it lowers the actual backlight of the device. No filters! You can literally turn off the backlight completely! You can do that in manual control.

Have fun :D

My first post in the Z1 forums :D

Sorry X10 :(
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] :
1- Boot time is 32sec according to LBE

2- fast and responsive

3- Battery and signal Improved

well what can i say this is by far my report for now!

waiting for others to post their's :)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
I just realized that I don't have any other ROM to extract "etc" and I just prepared to ask someone to upload it - and I saw your post....

Great and tnx...

I'm ready now to flash - ;)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] :
[MENTION=4976309]iHackers[/MENTION] i used your ETC and it's working also fine!

EDIT:

1- you'll lose ROOT do not worry if you're coming from a version that has the latest recovery from NUT installed you'll be able to reboot to recovery and install it again using PHILZ OPTION on his recovery!

Dirty Flashed 3.0 over Monx Rom

So far it's working great.

Could be possibly because I have locked bootloader, but had to flash Xposed Framework with Monx's zip file to get it working

I replaced the etc folder with the one you supplied and have full reception on my 6903

Overall feels quite quick and responsive.

First thing is I'm glad to report that hangouts is working on this rom (wasn't before on monx, kept getting FC)

Will report again once I've used it for a while, but so far really nice work!

Thanks!

Hi mate...

For now, I found two bugs...

In Aroma, navigation bar chooser is wrong (check script and you'll get what I mean)

And systemUI (stock) is somehow messed up (back nav bar icon is larger or not aligned with others)

Solution is to select transparent systemUI in Arome or to move systemUI.apk from iHackers/Mods/SystemUI/Transparent

to system/app with right permissions...

All navigation bar icons will be good then...

Everything else, for now - very, very nice ;)

Finally, Z1 runs like it should...it's very fast on 136 firmware...

And I haven't wiped data :)

edit:

somehow I managed to lose root but flashing superSU from recovery fix it ;)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Ferranza:
with nut etc file doesn't work. I'm at home, finally, so I can paste the etc ihackers file...
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] deftoner:
Hello! I flashed IHakerz 3.0 but I guerr errors even in the first time wizard!. You guys flashed the kernel too?

PD: I'm on 6902 phone

---------- Post added at 07:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:02 PM ----------

Ok, I flashed the kernel an now everything is working like a charm :)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Ferranza:
I'm stuck at bootloop with new etc file from dev... why? do you guys install also the stripped or a different kernel after flashing the rom??
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Yocto69:
me too.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Ferranza:
probably I solved with these steps: wipe all, flash rom, then the nut stripped file (20mb) then the advanced stock kernel...... do you want to try?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Yocto69:
I did it and I failed again..

:mad:

Dunno what else I can do.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Ferranza:
follow my instructions...I did it... rom is smooth and fast!
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Yocto69:
I followed your instructions. Don´t know what I did wrong
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
I just upgraded 2.1 and it's working without any problems. (preserving all data)

Try this - first start flash tool and select all for flashing stripped ftf, start flashing without connection device (you'll get that note to connect device)....

Go to recovery, wipe all, format data, flash ROM, (don't restart - of course) hold power+vol up).

Connect device holding vol down, flashing will start and your device should work...
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Yocto69:
Jippppy. Finally. Wipe all, flash rom and than only flash stripped.ftf, helped me out.

Thx a lot
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] :
So here's my Second EDIT and report:

1- if you're coming from a ROM that hasn't latest recovery from NUT install the latest one it is highly recommended

2- i have flashed 3.0 coming from a fully rooted .534, then flashed the stripped kernel as im on a locked bootloader!

3- lost root, but rebooted to recovery PHILZ's and reinstalled from there

4- download SuperSu by Chainfire from the Play Store (it's because after you install the root from the recovery it will delete the app) no worries your phone is rooted but you won't be able to see the app till you download it from the Store

5- you'll be prompt to flash the binary, once you're on the App! just choose TWRP/CWM it will reboot again to recovery and do the magic

6- THE ROM IS SO GREAT!
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] LLars_PL:
My Second report :)

Thanx to the etc files, got it workin, (coming from Honamz1 rooted .136) with dirty flash(no wipes), ihackers kernel, nothing flashed (no nut stripped ftf`s,.. nothing)

Just booted up, got lucky today. : D

I can say it`s really nice work done here, bootup time is f**** awesome!

it`s smooth and fast, really fast. Awesome !

Even without Wipes, i really can feel/see much of difference in speed and smoothness.

some apps got somehow deleted, like Facebook, Viper4Android, Root app and so on, but reinstalled, fully working :))

Cant see any issues till now, everything working much better than expected :D

-No reboots, no shutdowns

-No naviigation icons problems like was mentioned above

-Xposed working as it should

(Edit- Heavy Games like Gta San Andreas working much smoother on this rom !)

(Edit- Recommend to use Pencil Mod, working great on this rom)

Thanx for your awesome work!!!!.

Running C6903, Unlocked, rooted, with Ihackerskernel :) I`m really happy with this!

Will report back as soon as i notice any bug-

Is this rom (3.0) for UB or LB?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] LLars_PL:
it`s for both :)

But i guess flashing the stripped kernel is a must with locked bootloader
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] varun.gid:
Hi Guys. I'm totally new to flashing on xperia devices. This is my first xperia device and everything seems little more complicated than nexus 5.

I have the C6903 version and i have unlocked my bootloader and installed TWRP 2.6.3.0 monxfied version. How do i flash the ROM?

Standard way? Like Boot in recovery, factory wipe, flash ROM and thats it? And also: Stock ROM 4.3 JB .136 firmware
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Ferranza:
feedback: really impressed by new version of rom. fast and smooth. I'm used to have some xposed modules so i didn't have bugs. Tests still continue today.

For those who want the procedure... but please remember this is my process (the dev may explain other way):

Wipe data cache dalvik and format system.

Flash v3 rom.

power off and put in flashmode

flash the stripped file (about 20 mb).

put in fastboot mode

flash the kernel you want (if you have an unlocked bl).

I'm using the doom advanced stock kernel....
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Tboyroy83:

Question:

The caller picture is distorted and fullscreen.

Shall it be so?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Mighty_X:
I d guess the fullscreen caller is a mod feature and since the contacts are synced with google it heavily reduces picture size in order to save data traffic i guess. these poor picture when stretched to fullscreen then look even way poorer/ distorted.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
Simple add new photo or edit photos you already have...

If someone is using my themes with this ROM , I'll add white icons for full screen call images (for speaker, menu....) to be visible a bit better...
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Yocto69:
Sure, but I already got good pictures for all contact synct with Google.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
Me too but that's the way it is...

You could edit contact or use Phonebook.apk or semcphone.apk (can't remember which one is responsible for this) from 2.1 version (or stock 136) to have "normal" call image.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Tboyroy83:
Hi guys Sorry to be a pain, but how R we replacing the etc folder? Do we just extract with 7z, replace then compress with 7z or do I need a different compresion method? Sorry never done it B4 :-S
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] :
on the 3.0 zip file that you have downloaded open it and go to system you'll see the ETC folder, just delete it and replace it with the new one! that's all :)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] iHackers:
Open the zip with 7zip and drag my etc folder into the system folder. I have removed a few folders so if you delete the whole folder you may run into unexpected issues.

Anyone got battery indicator issues?

I disconnect the charger.. some minutes after that go 98%. and some hour latter got 98% too. When I connect the phone to charger few second shows the real number.

---------- Post added at 05:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:54 PM ----------

Reading some old post I saw that som ppl flashed striped tft (i'm not really sure what is it) and merge the content of the etc folder on the rom's zip.

I come from 2.1 I fullwiped, flashed (including kernel on aroma installer), wiped again (just in case) an reset the phone, and the rom is working for me.

Should a flash tft and/or the update on etc dir for some other reason that boot up the rom?

thanks!

There's many files in ETC folder specific for each model (radio, wifi and many others) so it really has to be the one iHackers uploaded.

I'm really satisfied with battery and whole ROM...

I keep brightness on quite high level (about 70-80%) and I get 5-6 hours of screen time.

Yes its in beta now, ask the dev for link- or wait till full version will not be long anymore
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] deftoner:
I know I know.

The resumed question is: My phone works just fine, with the original zip that iHackers sent. Should I merge the etc zip that is in this thread with the rom? or if it working no need?

thanks!
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
If you have working radio, wifi and others things there's no reason for changing anything...

Basically it'll work without any problems even if you add ETC folder from NUT ROM.

Hi all, had a couple of issuse at first but got there in the end. First install whent like this.

1) wiped cache, dalvik and data

2) installed v3.0

3) installed kernal and baseband from global ftf

4) reinstalled advanced stock kernal.

Problems encountured were

1) initialbootsetup failed then if I got past this error the phone was unresponsive and slow

2) there was no network signal, no sim detected

Solution was

1) reinstalled v2.1 as if a new install as per the original op for unlocked bootloader

2) wiped cache, dalvik and data

3) installed v3.0 rom

4) reinstalled v2.1 advanced stock kernal

Conclusion

I love the rom, its quick and responsive. The boot time is amazing and it still smashes the note 3 in Antutu.

Only 1 bug So far which is if I power off my device while it is on charge (wall or pc) it will power back up and not remain off.

Awsome rom yet again [MENTION=4976309]iHackers[/MENTION] :D

First, battery, for example i have 48percent battery. When i Reboot my Phone, it says 24 :o suddenly..

Second the known ram problem, in apps info every app says *restarting*, i have 100mb free ram, and the Phone is unusable.

Keyboard doesnt open, launcher takes 5sec to reload icons.. Only Reboot helps for Couple hours, then same story again

Please help its annoying :(

And one more Little problem - hot Reboot sometimes Ends with bootloop.

Did you replace the etc folder in the v3.0 zip with the 1 ihackers linked up a couple pages back?

Also if you try installing v2.1 as directed in the original op then just upgrade to v3.0 by

wipe data, cache, and dalvik

install v3.0 rom

DONT flash kernel and baseband from original or NUT stripped ftf

reflash ihackers advance stock or doom kernel

reboot and enjoy

At least that's how I got it to work for me.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] LLars_PL:

hello my friend :D:D:D:D

didnt realise that where you hiding these days................................

right i am about to flash this on my Z1 but i am on BeerGang rom as yopu know so do i just flash the ihackers kernel boot.img vioa fastboot then in recovery flash the rom as normal? i was initially on stock 4.3 before flashing Beer so i shouldn't need stock 4.3 and kernel before reboot!

Install Kernel.ftf for C6903 (.290) or Kernel.ftf for C6902 (.290) with Flashtool to get compatible Kernel and Baseband. - i should be able to skip this step?

---------- Post added at 02:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:22 PM ----------

i flashed and boot successfully..............everything else works except phone calls. doesnt even dial out. in settings says mobile state - disconnected but i receive texts and have data connection. please investigate this thanks

i chose C6903 in aroma as have UK model
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
Ola amigo ;)

That's odd...

Could you try with Doom kernel?

I just joined to iHackers and I'm in LB :P. so I'm not sure but I would try that..

And yeah, that "stripped" ftf is for LB to get kernel, you covered that with fastboot.

Wanna try 3.0? I'll send you

link in PM...

BTW - you can choose kernel in Aroma so ne need to fastboot it ;)

a few suggestions.......... remember i said suggestions......

- remove LBE guard option in aroma as we as user can choose to install it or not. i am aware its an option in aroma and you can chose not to have it but why is it there?

- also in aroma break up the options that you cant have both like stock UI and translucent so you can select one or the other. if not sure you will tick one you want but stock remains ticked.............when tick translucent it should deselect stock etc. this needs to be done through out as present in kernel options and others

Rom seems ok for now with calls working

Try Greenify and Bootmanager. There are some options in the LBE Security Master that can help you to optimize the RAM Usage. Have a look at them too. The RAM issues are not ROM related, they totally depend opon your installed apps combination and how you use your phone.
