Is anyone else having issues with the camera?

if i take a photo it takes photos repeatedly until i press the home button - even though i only press the button once, the app seems to lock up
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] encryptioncsta:
is there gonna be fixes or not!!!
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] encryptioncsta:
Obviously this is a dead rom!!! I recommend using something else as almost every feature is broken is this garbage rom!
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] pandaball:
It would be nice if you elaborated on what you mean ;)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] :
There's still nightly releases on the cyanogenmod
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] gladiac:
The main problem here is that people don't have those issues of yours. As a result it is particularly hard to help you. I understand that you did a clean flash (as in not keeping any data from previous roms) followed by installation of the gapps package. Not sure what's wrong with your setup. What gapps did you install?

Well, does not look too dead to me ;) : http://www.cmxlog.com/11/honami

Who can help me bring Walkman and others Sony app (Album, Video) back to CM?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] araemo:
I had the exact same issue with google sound search. If you use the widget, it just straight up fails, and screws up all voice recognition until you reboot. Using it as part of google now seemed fine... though you have to hope it detects music quickly enough to give you the music option.

Has M10 fixed either the camera bug or the wifi tethering bug? (Camera bug shouldn't need explaining.. yes I have z1camerabootfix, but it's not ideal..) Wifi tethering bug is that wifi tethering doesn't always work when you turn it on.. repeated toggles will make it work.

I've switched back to stock, after getting fed up with something that has bugged me in CM9/10/11 on several devices: Bluetooth streaming 'skipping'/dropouts. Using the same playback app (poweramp) on stock has not had this problem at all for me.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] NanoSurfer:
Hey Bro, sorry you feel this way about this ROM. I know how frustrating it is to have to deal with stuff that is broken. This ROM definitely isn't dead though, as mentioned already, the nightlies are very much alive on CM!

With that said, I would like to offer you guys a taste of the current state of the rom (for those who rely on this thread or FXPblog for updates) with the latest sources synced and a few cherry picks! :) If you have been following cm gerrit lately, you will see that there has been a few merges regarding Bluetooth, whether or not this fixes the issues I cant say because I don't use it. But overall, I have to say this rom is pretty damn fantastic! Battery life for me is better than stock and its smooth as silk!

The reason I'm posting this is because I wanted to share a workable and almost perfect (in my opinion :angel:) CM11. It's no secret that the camera is buggy on custom ROM's with this device, but there has been a lot of work on it and I reckon its at a point where its definitely very much usable! And thanks to Chirayu Desai, he has a workaround hack for the camera crashing (which I "personally" think won't get merged in CM as that's not the best solution for this problem.) I don't really like this kind of hack either but it actually works very well! So I have built this ROM on my own private server with the following cherry picks and latest sources sync'd and felt like sharing it with everyone :)

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/73062/ - camera: add a workaround for slow camera startup

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/73835/ - CameraWrapper: add support for metering mode

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/71677/ - rhine: Enable audio offload

This is 100% pure CM, nothing added (except for the cherry picks), no custom kernel or any alterations to the kernel, stock standard CM11 Kernel for this device and standard CM toolchain. Bear in mind that the cherry picks will probably get merged soon in the CM tree anyway, except for the camera hack maybe :confused: Also this is working for me but your mileage may vary. I personally recommend a clean install as well, especially if you're coming from another ROM, but may not be necessary.

cm-11-20140927-UNOFFICIAL-honami.zip

I am of course using this ROM on my own device and I haven't encountered any issues at all yet!

PS: Sorry for hijacking this thread, it was pointless opening another so I thought I'd just post it here. All the thanks goes to the guys at CM and the community for the amazing work they do!!!
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] encryptioncsta:
ok Can someone please post the correct GAPPS that are meant to work with Official CM11

on Cyanogenmod downloads section they don't seem to have GAPPS 4.4.4 but only have 4.4.3 and it's making me think why the hell is 4.4.4 not listed?

can someone please post the official link to GAPPS 4.4.4 that indeed will work with CM11
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] NanoSurfer:
Actually the 4.4.3 GAPPS on Cyanogenmod downloads is the one I am am using :) Haven't had any issues personally whatsoever, but everyone's use case is different

edit: I am using this one, gapps-kk-20140606-signed.zip

Hello everyone, just wanted to drop by and ask if the camerabug is still present, or if it has been fixed?

I know i can use Tasker and the apk file., but I'd rather not.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] pananza:
The camera bug is still present. But I use a "Z1CameraFix.apk" that was posted somewhere on XDA (do a search) that runs once when the Z1 is booted. It displays the text "Fixing camera" and that's it. Never had an issue with the camera since.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] :
The bug was already fixed on Paranoid Android. Shouldn't CM get a fix already?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] cdesai:
A workaround for the slow initial camera startup issue has been merged, http://review.cyanogenmod.org/73062

It is based on the Z1CameraFix app, but the code has been cleaned up, and modified for inclusion in CM.

You can now open the camera after boot and won't have to wait for a few seconds to get a preview and take a picture. :)

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] andyjrobinson:
What are the advantages of this over using Cyanogen?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] peddarson:
I guess there is nothing much of a difference anymore. Only the sources are built in faster as the normal cm version if a new firmware comes out.

Usually the fxp-team looks more into Sony-specific bugs and problems

Does anyone notice the choppy scrolling in most CM based roms? It doesnt happen on Stock... I did some comparisons using screen recorder on full fps and it really does stutter when you scroll, and, the faster you scroll, the choppier it is... [MENTION=359497]jerpelea[/MENTION]

Yes, sad but true. Even my i9100 runs smoother on cm11. No clue what the bottleneck might be.

Touch screen

Hi,

I'm trying to find a fix to the touch screen issue with the Z1 (The Erractic One) Could you tell me whether anyone running CM is having this issue??

[MENTION=359497]jerpelea[/MENTION] I know that you arein touch with Sony. COuld you please find out if a fix is coming. Or if you could provide us with a fix.

Thanks A lot!

No signal (can't call, send messages)

Hello all,

after flashing the cm11 my z1 has no sinal. I can't call or send messages.

Anyone had the same problem? How can i fix it?

Thanks.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] araemo:
Has anyone had success using Tap and Pay from google wallet in CM11 on this phone? I used it successfully in the Sony ROM, when I was on CM11 prior to switching to the sony rom, and since coming back to CM11, tap and pay says it is ready, but the terminal and my phone never recognize each other. Android Beam does work between my z1 and other CM11 devices, so NFC itself seems to work.

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Duvel999:
I want to install latest CM11, FXP349 version.

Or is CM11 M12 better?

Which Gapps are advised?

And a possible Custom CM kernel?

Thx.:D

Sent by my Z1 with XDA Fax
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] mo120697:
this thread is dead, you cant find support here ^^

but for your questions: fxp builds are (in my experience) the better ones, better battery life and less bugs. so i prefer FXP 349 ;)

try paranoid android google apps from 06.06.2014, these are working good for me

and (good) custom kernels are

- x-Honami Kernel (CM Version)

-greatdevs kernel

-Pimped Kernel (light version!!!!!) works fine for me with good battery life :)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] mpkossen:
Could you tell me where I could find a support thread for FXP roms, please?

for now there is no real support. But you can post on fxp google+ page, there are many active users so maybe they are able to help you:)

then reboot

okay thanks was not sure if i can delete them :) the audio-caf is already in mainfest.xml so i don't need to add them either :)

my roomservice.xml :

no on CM11 we are using AOSP, -caf are not intended for 8974

hardware/qcom/audio

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] krabappel2548:
[MENTION=2492127]Kali-[/MENTION] could you maybe give me any credit for the stuff I already did for kitkat on rhine board before you started?

You guys used zero of my commits and didn't gave me a little thanks line in the cm11 thread here. I kinda feel a bit put aside. But you maybe could have used some of my commits or put a thanks somewhere. I know my commits may suck sometimes but at least I got most major stuff working except cam, BT and hw support. It took up a lot of my time.

Not that I'm blaiming only you, but there are a lot of other devs for other devices that have also been put aside although they almost did the complete device bringup from scratch. A big team like CyanogenMod or whatever rom should give credit to everyone involved.

And not just one line: "thanks to all who made this possible supporting us

contributing with code, donations or even trusting us"

Some people deserve more credit! But most of them don't have the guts to step up for their work I think.

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Kali-:
your is not cm-11.0 source and i never used it in 10.2 too (in 10.2 i have did the -mdss as -caf was not compatible with msm8974)

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_sony_rhine-common/blob/cm-11.0/BoardConfigCommon.mk

Hi [MENTION=2492127]Kali-[/MENTION], few questions:

Did u get my donation? (Just to double check isn't a wrong addrs)

What is the status of hw media decoding?

What about gps?

Torch?

How far do you think we are to have a solid base?

Thanks!
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] moritz31:
i can confirm what he said, but 2 thinks i get

1. change from wlan to mobile data take very very long

2. is it possible that the overheat is very high in that early stadium ?

[MENTION=2492127]Kali-[/MENTION] thanks for you're help

you'll get some money for beer from me ;)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Kali-:
y

no issue with hw decoder, is the hw overlay broken

we are looking on gps

i did torch in 10.2 and i should port it in 11.0 (dunno about flash)

base is solid, i'm using it daily, there are few bug (mostly this 3) to be fixed before go to nightlies build

Wait, are we supposed to get the experimental builds from CM's site or the FXP builds from OP's link? What's the difference?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
ON XFP builds can be experimental code that is not on CM builds
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] nardusg:
So, CM should be the one to use for daily driver, unless you want something specific in FXP

Now only issus：

volume in all music player keep in full and can't change,volume in video player it normal.

gps and hw composer issues.

I was just being a sarcastic smartass mate... It was meant to be an imaginary review for an imaginary ROM.. Fxp246 cm11 has been out for a while for all xperia that matters except the one we'd bought. 247 will be out in 3:days... We were hoping togari would be included in that.

Until an hour earlier when I saw two threads about fxp posted here with op write up as though cm11 for the z ultra's up for grabs right this second...

So what u mistook for a genuine review n gratitude for offering the ROM was in fact just my 2 cents about this situation.

Been visiting this forum like every hour every day for the last one month hoping for a chance some 4.4 kang's out for this phone.

Feels like **** when u see threads like this which basically could have honestly waited till the build was actually available, or posts like 3g charges in Germany... when every reply, every post stops our heart for a sec hoping there's a chance a 4.4 build has surfaced somewhere
