HI :) I have a question for someone that's familiar with the FTF that the dev provided in the instructions that you should flash after this rom.

Question: Over in monx thread they also specify that you should flash latest sony ftf and exclude all except baseband and kernel, just as in this thread. Only there they dont provide the ftf in a trimmed form, like this awesome dev has :D My question is, if I were to flash monx rom, could I still use the ftf from iHackers thread?

In other words, is the ftf from this thread basically the latest sony ftf in a trimmed form?

And also: What is the "bootbundle" that is found in this threads FTF? should it be excluded as well if all you need is the kernel and baseband?

Hey [MENTION=4238871]kischde[/MENTION]

I am having similar issues as [MENTION=2567981]simahu[/MENTION] - The feeling like I have partial root, which is strange.. is it because I am on a locked bootloader?

Rom Toolbox lite works when freezing apps, but, I cannot uninstall them.

Neither of the Viper4androids work.

Adaway doesnt work either, stating it hasnt got route.

All these applications already have permissions in supersu.

I used the free version of Stephen (Stericson)'s busybox installer, which says that I already have it installed.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Ivyn87:
Hello,

All work very good for me on this ROM.

I've only a little problem in the home screen, after that i close an app, in the upper left corner of the screen i have a little part of the previously open app. For have a correct home screen wallpaper i need to re-set it. but when i enter into the app and return on the home screen the problem it's again here.

(sorry for my bad english)

Someone have my same problem?!?

Regards

Ivan
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] David78130:
I think issues come with UB is due to the fact that we can't write system, only read... Maybe will it be fixed..
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] jagdesh:
Have you tried reinstalling the rom again. Try that
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] slackerz_86:
this was replied by iHackers himself that he will fix this on the next release. i have the same problem, n i just restart ui from ihackers settings.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
Don't use that trimmed ftf's if you have problems with it.

I had problems with this ROM, (to flash it), then I download full ftf 290 EU generic, flash only ROM (without any MODs - graph, sound or performa.) I flashed full ftf (only baseband and kernel - of course, all wipe exclude, and , as I said only kernel and baseband flash)

I lost recovery but wifi and bluetooth finally working.

I'll try one more time to detect wich MOD is stoping WIFI to work...

But it could be that ftf provided in OP just don't contain right baseband for me (that's odd, but it could be)

I'm writing that here (not in general) becose it could help others.

And don't forget to flash superSu fix after flashing ROM (flash ROM, supersu, dualrecovery, power off, flash ftf)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] M-Dawg:
Why flash superSU fix? The rom is rooted and the iHacker advanced kernel has recovery.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
All other devs sugest that, why it lose root - don't know.

I'm talking about LB.

Something happens after ftf flashing and LB lose root after that...

Even I said : flash superSU after ROM.

I think it's better to flash SuperSU update after ftf - that have more sense.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] tsmt971@yahoo:
In NUT and Monx thread, there is a way for full root on LB. I hope this ROM will have it in next release. That may be a time to cheer up for a good ROM.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] iHackers:
Finally... The next version is almost ready and thanks to [MENTION=4904057][NUT][/MENTION] we will have Full Root on this ROM even for Locked Bootloaders. :D
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] iHackers:
[MENTION=4816245]funky0308[/MENTION] So, you finally managed to install this ROM huh..?? :p Well the next version is almost ready and to clear your doubts, you need to deselect both the Kernels for LB and you don't need to flash any SuperSu update after the ROM, I have already included it in the ROM's Installer.

Well, let me know if you have any other doubts or issues. BTW, let me know if you have any suggestions for the next release. :)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] slackerz_86:
iHackers, i hope so all bugs in 2.0 woll be resolve.... Like wallpaper, battery problem... I aimply love your rom... Just a question before u release the next one, will it be ok to flash over 2.0? Or preferably still fresh install?

---------- Post added at 08:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:19 PM ----------

I forgot to ask one more, how come i cannot get rid of NFC statusbar icon??
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] kischde:
[MENTION=1213715]slackerz_86[/MENTION]

With Xposed you're able to disable the NFC-icon. I think that was an option within gravitybox.

[MENTION=4976309]iHackers[/MENTION]

Well, if you wish suggestions:

You'd really satisfy some users if you can provide tap2wake / knock-on and maybe 2sleep, too :)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] iHackers:
Ofcourse. All the issues will be resolved in the next release and yes, you will be able to flash it directly over the previous version although the clean flash is always recommended. Although, half of the issues that users are facing are either because they didn't follow the steps and messed up somewhere. There can never be any solution to that.

For NFC:

1 - Open your file browser (Explorer) ex: Root Explorer

2 - Navigate to / system and find the "build.prop"

3 - Open the file with a text editor and navigate to the key "ro.nfc.icon.enable = true"

4 - Change the value "true" to "false"

5 - Restart the Device
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
Year mate...and it's very, very good ;)

I finally managed to wake up Xposed (I flashed Xposed and supersu binaries through recovery) and modules are working great.

All ROM is just awesome...but...

I lose wifi every time I use striped ftf and if I flash baseband from full 290 I lose recovery.

I'll find a way to fix that...

We have ETA for new version?

If it'll be out soon I'll wait and use mobile data for a few days...

Tax mate one more time ;)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] slackerz_86:
when i flashed 2.0, it was a fresh installation. but guess the battery drainage and wallpaper was just a bug. i really appreciate your rom and your work. thanks [MENTION=4976309]iHackers[/MENTION]
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] iHackers:
That WiFi thingy shouldn't cause any issues, but in case it is causing issues and you have the ftf that has the ones that are working well for you simply drag the baseband files from that ftf to the stripped one on the op and you will have a stripped one for yourself or you can make a copy of that ftf and strip it down yourself. A stripped one will always be better, faster and safer than a full ftf when you want to flash only kernel and baseband, plus you won't have to worry about selecting/deselecting stuff in the flashtool, you will be able to install it with a simple double click.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] slackerz_86:
[MENTION=4976309]iHackers[/MENTION] it is already on false... But it is still showing. Should i change it to true??
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
I'll try that, definitely.

If someone already have baseband zip for recovery flash, please post it.

The guys ;)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] M-Dawg:
I have UL bootloader
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
Then you don't have to worry about that kind of things. ;)

I think we should post things like this in general section.

But it pertains to this rom?

Does anyone else get a force close with Google now?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] M-Dawg:
Please no.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] hieuhd93:
Wait for new version rom with full-root.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] M-Dawg:
If I recall correctly, seeder is activated by default so no need to try and activate it. I think that's why it force closes.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] hieuhd93:
I just hope, man :D

It's up to Ihacker, anw.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] M-Dawg:
Thanks for the info, I think ill flash the superSU fix. do you have a link for it? also, why is did you recommend flashing recovery after installation?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
To see first do you even need update. (superSU)

If everything works well, you don't need to flash superSU update.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] :
Full ROOT is now possible! thanks to NUT we'll wait for an updated iHackers version :) thanks guys!
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] kischde:
When your phone is shut down, push power button to start it. when the LED lights up, press vol+ up or vol-. One starts PhilZ and the other one TWRP.

If you need the SuperSU zip, have a look in the Q&A thread where we should move to with our "chat" (this is development thread).

click me
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
Finally, finally, finally...

Everything is working.

Recovery stayed and I finally figured out how to fix WIFI.

I flashed only ROM and some apps but skip all MODs and it's awesome now...

Tnx guys...
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] M-Dawg:
What exactly is supposed to go in a "development thread"?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] kischde:
[MENTION=5251444]M-Dawg[/MENTION]

Follow the link I posted above. There is the Q&A (=question&answer) thread, where everything can be written, as long as it´s around iHackers ROM.

This thread here is just and only for things around development. Announcements of the dev, bugs/issues and so on. Really important things, to keep this thread tiny and packed with information. Call it an "information.zip" :)

If a mod sees us chatting here, he/she might spank our asses ^^
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
I'm not 100% sure but I believe there's something in Aroma installer that causing WIFI errors.

When I flash only ROM, without any MODs - I got working ROM.

It's still partial rooted but Xposed and every MOD installated from recovery works.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] kischde:
[MENTION=4816245]funky0308[/MENTION]

What mods are you flashing afterwards?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
None, except Xposed, what I tried to say is, I have system access from recovery but not from OS - partial root.

And that's all I need for now.

Now I can build/MOD few themes and try them ;)

As I said, every time I flashed all MODs (from recovery) I ended up with a blocked wifi.

When I flash only ROM I have working ROM.

I must check battery life but I like it for now.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] kischde:
[MENTION=4816245]funky0308[/MENTION]

Hm.. If you´re somewhat fine with your device, I´d just wait until iHackers releases the update. Can´t take that long ;)

Sounds curious though. Maybe one of the mods you tested contains anything that bothers your baseband or a file needed for wifi connection.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] rage77:
Full root on LB? Where did you read this? =)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
Yeap, he did that.

Read on his thread...but there's a lot of work to do.

Don't worry its FC for me as well

---------- Post added at 10:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 AM ----------

Dev, I would like to point out that on v2.0 the vibration for incoming calls is weak. Could it be possible to make the device vibrate more since it's difficult to know who the device vibrates specially when it's in the pocket.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] deli pastrami:
Awesome, thanks
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] colors:
I don´t get it.. i have unlocked BL with .290 stock and doomkernel for now. Would like to flash this rom instead.

1....

step 2. Install IHackers Advaned Stock kernel. In fastboot or what? shouldnt reboot in recovery stand before that?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] slackerz_86:
Kernel should always be install in fastboot.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
You have Dooms kernel?

Then you probably have recovery as well.

Just download ROM and flash it.

In Aroma select which kernel you want to use and finish flashing.

There's no need for any additional steps because you have unlocked bootloader.

If you want to use different kernel, just flash boot.img (any kernel you download for Z1) and fastboot it :

Fastboot flash boot boot.img

And that's it ;)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] colors:
Yepp i already have doomkernel and custom recovery. Actually i tried that. Did a factory reset and flashed the rom. Went great but after rebooting my pincode for sim didnt show so i had no signal. And there was a system apk that had FC all the time.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
Wipe all except system (from recovery) and you should be fine with FC.

For signal problem you should try to flash ROM again or uf you have backup, go to recovery/restore/advance restore/ system only.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] kischde:
What do you mean by "closed it"? I've put GPS toggle in the notification bar which you can pull down when you're on home screens. From there I enable and disable it and it's state is what the toggle shows.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
Anyone tried to flash latest recovery from NUT?

He just said that if I have this ROM and working recovery I should only flash latest recovery (70 or 71 - I'm not sure where's 71) and I'll have full root.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] tsmt971@yahoo:
I did flash ver 71 of NUT's recovery on top of iHackers 2.0. I have full root on LB. I deleted the XZDR.prop on XZDualRecovery on external SDCard before flashing the latest recovery.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
Yeap...

I can confirm too...

After flashing latest recovery (71) we have fully working root access.

DON'T FORGET

to delete XZDR.prop from external SD.

Big tnx to [MENTION=4976309]iHackers[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4904057][NUT][/MENTION]
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] kischde:
[MENTION=4976309]iHackers[/MENTION]

What program is used to unpack ftf files? You said "drag the file ... and put in another" - how can we drag files from one and put them in another ftf?

That would be really interesting :) If I can find out hof ftf-files work and what is/can be included I would make my own ones. That way everyone could make ftfs that fit his gusto.

edit:

Ah, nice :D I already had an assumption and tried it.. ftf can be opened with packers. Now I need to find out how I can work with those .sin files.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] [NUT]:
FlashTool can unpack them for you... and an FTF is essentially a zip file with some extra meta data...

Just remember that while you can decrypt the sin files, there is NO WAY to create your own sin file, it needs to be signed

BY SONY

to be accepted by S1 (the flash part of your phone).

help after flashing nuts latest recovery .71 and deleted the xdr.prop im stuck at sony's boot logo and my phone is just vibrating :(.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] aeron16:
can u share the exact steps?

I flashed on my Z1 (on RomAzur 4.0) latest recovery (71) and got a bootloop.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] kischde:
Thanks Maestro :)

Already found a converter that decrypts the sin files. I got tgz archives but couldn´t extract them as there were errors (Total Commander threw such messages out..). The converter I found was for Xperia X10. Is there eventually another tool for de- and encrypting for the Z1?

That means in the end I might exchange the sin files within those ftf packages. So I´ve got to find out what is in the sin files and if I want it I could integrate it.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] aeron16:
i have the same issue too (on romAzur)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] zyxel25:
its ok to me now what i do is reflash ihackers rom v2.0 then delete the xzdr.prop then flash nuts recovery :).

but how to remove the double vibrate when on sony logo?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] aeron16:
did you do a wipe of data or anything after reflashing ihackers rom?

for xzdr.prop was deleted from internal storage or ext SD?

thanks!
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] zyxel25:
no didnt wipe anything.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] aeron16:
Thanks for the tip on reflashing the RomAzur. I reflashed the 4.0 version without wiping data and managed to get back to the ROM.

Downloading the latest now 4.1 (with Init.d support) and will install the 70 recovery on that to try again.

Thanks!
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] deli pastrami:
where would one adjust the DPI of the soft keys like home, menu, and back???

Thanks!
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] [NUT]:
When using XZDualRecovery and seeing a second (amber) LED + vibration, you probably removed the wrong XZDR.prop file ...

When having a vibrate loop: take out your sdcard, put it in the pc, create a file called 'donotrun' without extension inside the XZDualRecovery folder: you will be able to boot normaly then. You can then open XZDR.prop and edit the setting 'dr.ramdisk.active' and set it to 'false'.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Indicious Flow:
Ok. Root definitely fixed with the new update of Recovery. Really thanks [NUT] for making this possible. Problem facing right now is that Viper4Android is still not working :p
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] David78130:
+10000 I can now delete system apps :D

PS: I can't go in CWM but TWRP starts fine. (I see a red light after press vol-)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] nadavgal:
why viper4android no working ?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] [NUT]:
Install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.camber.ndrutils

It will allow you to boot any recovery right from the rom.

Vol-down will enter twrp, vol-up enters whichever recovery you entered last using the app.

[Xperia Z1 Android Development] funky0308:
You lost root after you installed NUT app from store?

Strange...

But O.K, if you have recovery just try to flash last dualrecovery (.71)

Delete prop file from XZDualRecovery first.

2. Flash in recovery

Some report no issue with this, others are getting a boot loop.

What's the safest known method guys?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] shteren:
I did just that, but I deleted the. Prop file from within TWRP using the file manager. Works like a charm.

If you can flash ftf via flashtool then you'll be on stock ROM.
