Any fix for the time issue? Not a major bug but just wondering also sometimes if it goes into deep sleep won't wake up :/
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] CappyT:
[MENTION=3160680]DAddYE[/MENTION] For those coming from cyanogenmod or other ROMS, I suggest you to include in the first post to wipe /system, otherwise you get an instable, broken and buggy phone.

I personally tested and before report, I tested this way and (seems) to work fine (except for the fact audio volume is always maximized and the only way to get it working is to activate an effect in DSP manager)

Coming from cyanogenmod I also haven't got problem with deep sleep... because the phone will sleep... forever.

So, before have wrong bug reports, add it to the OP...

Thank you very much for your efforts, the ROM is rocking quite good.

I flashed this rom without problem in recovery. Is the first boot needed to take a very long time? My phone is still booting after 15 minutes
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] DAddYE:
Nope first boot should take around 5. Connect it to your PC/Mac and see through adb logcat what's wrong. Probably some old app?

...found another bug (maybe) on manual search for network operators (settings > wireless & networks > mobile networks > network operators).

After short search displaying "error while searching for networks"...so it is not possible to select the operator manualy (auto works).

Anyone can confirm this?

Anyway...wonderfull work, DAddYE...currently fastest rom for our z1 out there! :highfive:
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Ashray_Vk:
I can confirm this.

Anyways, its not a big problem at all I guess :)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] De-Nea:
Thanks for confirming the bug! I living in germany, at the country frontiers to austria and auto-changing network operator is a huge problem here! :mad:
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] subhramani:
First off.. thank you for an awesome ROM. I have a couple of issues though.

1) Hotword for search remains active only for sometime after the phone is rebooted.

2) Camera is pretty screwed up. It freezes as soon as I open it.

I tried looking through this thread, but couldnt find anything related to these issues. Is there any solution?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] 3r1k:
Fixed it!!! Thanks a lot. I appreciate your help.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] liqn7:
This is a CM related bug. Turn off HW overlay in developer options (press build number in about phone 7 times to activate) and the camera should work fine.

Can somone who has this installed please run CPUSpy to see if their phone is deep sleeping? I've had issues before on CM10.2 and GPE 4.42 battery life is so good currently I'm reluctant to change.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] subhramani:
Thank you. Didnt know that was related to HW Overlay.

Also, what info do you need from CPY Spy? I have just installed it shows that my phone has been on deep sleep for approx 2 hours.

EDIT: Also, maybe I'm asking for too much, but is it possible to port the Nexus 5 camera with HDR+ on to this one?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] DAddYE:
Find the apk for the nexus and u should be fine. However believe me this is one of the best camera app I tried.

Sent from SlimKat on Xperia Z1
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] subhramani:
I actually tried that but didnt work. Maybe there are a few other libraries that help in creating an HDR+. Not sure.

But now another concern/issue I have right now is that nothing shows up in my Google Now. Once I reboot the phone, it works for sometime and then comes with this. Search works fine though, just no cards.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] DAddYE:
Pretty strange, try flashing minimal gapps from here: http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewcategory/978-addons4-4
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] subhramani:
Sure. I'll try. Thanks.

LOL... now the camera issue still exists even after disabling HW Overlay. As soon as I open the camera, it freezes and the entire phone freezes after that causing an automatic reboot.

Edit: If I kill the camera app and start it again, I get a message "Can't connect to the camera"
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] DAddYE:
Okay, camera should be uber fast, or at least equal to stock (in terms of speed).

Seeing your gapps problem and this camera one I believe you did something wrong.

Dirty flash? Restored from titanium some app? Check you "adb logcat" and if you aren't able to find/solve the issue I suggest to wipe everything, cache and DATA then install.

On the first boot usually after you see the home is still setting up everything so wait other 2 mins then reboot and play with the camera, you'll se that is very very fast.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] rotorsk8r:
I found that if I reboot into recovery and clear cache and dalvik that all is fine from then on
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] subhramani:
First of all, what recovery do you guys use? I ended up flashing PhilZ first, but it wasnt able to detect my external SD card, so I flashed TWRP. That works well. However, CWM doesnt seem to remain in my phone at all.

Even if I flash CWM using fastboot flash boot name.img, after a reboot, TWRP comes back again. I have no frickin clue how.

I have wiped everything using PhilZ recovery first. I selected the option "Prepare phone to flash ROM" or something like that which formats all partitions. And then I flashed the ROM, so it wasnt a dirty flash. I shall try wiping everything again, flash the ROM and the minimal gapps this time and see how it goes. And I have not restored anything. Everything is what I ended up downloading again.

I just tried wiping Dalvik Cache and Cache. The phone optimised all apps during the boot and then camera froze again, but responded after about 15 seconds. It still isnt ok though.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] DAddYE:
this ^^^^^^ could be the problem. This rom comes with TWRP, try to avoid any extra step that could end with and bad behavior. Once you're confident with the rom everything it's fine, backup then do some experiment ;)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] subhramani:
The ROM comes with a recovery? :-s

This is my 8th Android phone and never heard of such a thing before. LOL. Ok, I wont disturb the recovery in that case. Thanks for letting me know.

Each manufacturer makes it work differently I guess. This is my first Sony phone. Gotta learn how this works first then.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] peddarson:
it is a sony-thing. on Sony phones the recovery is always integrated in the kernel.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] subhramani:
Scheiße!! Alright. Will keep in mind :)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] abbychauhan:
I have got the solutions of Camera Freezing I know nothing will work.. Just wipe everything.. Install the ROM again.. And most important when you Open the Camera in Newly installed ROM Don't press Yes when it asks for To remember Photos Location.. Because the GPS thing is still little buggy and it Freezes the camera.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Ashray_Vk:
This battery life for me is amazing :) thank you very much :)

battery life is great and i think u can do better m use greenify to stop some app refreshing

well [MENTION=3160680]DAddYE[/MENTION] I think u should include the flashable file that u posted which fix the sound picker

2.5 version won't be stable without it , i tried the rom today with clean install every time i use volume rocker i got freezes

rom is very stable and i cant use the official sony any more , believe me i tried :D , u did well increasing the volume ..

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] torjohron:
I was just thinking that the devices are viritualy the same, the only difference in specs are screen and battery. Maby all the roms work or are the framework different?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] DAddYE:
Yup, but I think at least you need a different kernel.

[MENTION=2784807]DooMLoRD[/MENTION] can you give him some advice? Can he boot our kernel?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] shteren:
i had an xperia ZR before my Z1, it was virtually the same hardware as XZ just with a 4.6 720p screen, excatly same story as with Z1 and Z1 compact.

as it turns out all XZ roms whould work on XZR with slight modification of build.prop to update screen density and adjusting the gyro, because XZ gyro was placed differently from XZR.

i'm not sure it's the same as z1 and z1C but it's worth trying, but yet again i don't really understand anything about this, so brick at your own risk
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Ashray_Vk:
Any chance of adding the Faux kernel Sound control support in the next updates ? i just love it and i think it would be very useful for the music freaks out here :P :)

Tried full wipe, flashed ROM, full Gapps and mininal (different occasions) and the phone keeps freezing on me. I had no option but to flash stock back.

Xperia Z1 (C6902)

I have been using this fix to run CM11, AOKP and SlimKat. Everything works fine. I have used ParanoidAndroid GApps and as the package is independent of ROM it works just fine.

Only issue I am facing is copy speed of SD Card and sometimes it just wont work properly (it is in FAT32). But in Stock ROM it works just fine ... no issue with speed.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] abbychauhan:
About Gapps I told him only because we can always download the required Google Apps from playstore so i personally avoid unnecessary flashing though its a matter of choice( i think playstore provided with ROM can Conflict with the Gapps one) and about SD card I had the same problem but i solved it by flashing it on win7(earlier i was flashing with xp) to FAT32 with Allocation Size of 64 kb(not the default one) and whola.. it worked
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] subhramani:
I just did a full wipe again, flashed the ROM and monx. The ROM works pretty well without any freezes. That is awesome news.

But camera froze as soon as I opened it, responded after about 10 seconds and the now it wont even work. Comes up with "Cannot connect to camera". :(

adb logcat

You rock man :) this by far the best 4.4 ROM available
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] aidicula:
So..i finally decided to unlock the bootloader and install a custom ROM. I was bored with Sony's offering and the custom ROMs based on it. I always preferred Vanilla Android...so after a lot of reading forums..i finally decided on Slim. I used to use slim for my HTC One X and other phones before it. I am really glad I installed this ROM. Its fast, battery is good and till now I didnt have any hangs/crashes (2 days use). The first thing I did was switch off location in Camera and HW Overlay.

I did notice one thing...the Mobile Data connection...(I am on LTE..using C6903)...I can see sometimes there is no H or H+ or LTE, but the net is working! Thought it was strange..anyone else noticed this?

The DSP Manager...does it work? I dont hear any difference with it switched on either on...using headset and Poweramp. Any ideas?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] rotorsk8r:
I do know that the data connection not showing is a feature on android 4.4. God knows why, I see no advantage?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ploopower79:
Maybe you could add the network speed indicator from xposed so you could see when it's doing something?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Superbia:
Is there any kernel with tap2wake enabled that works well with this rom? The placement of the power button on the Z1 is not very left handed friendly and that would really help things out.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] DAddYE:
Quick follow-up, I built a new version with the latest patches on kernel and thanks to [MENTION=2492127]Kali-[/MENTION] HW overlays now works!!!! The general feel of the rom is that looks More snappy.

Now we have a 100% working rom!!!!

PLEASE consider a donation for [MENTION=2492127]Kali-[/MENTION] he is the only Dev behind our device and he is working hard for us.

It's very easy to do it through Sony's website. There is no other way. Just get your IMEI and input it in the website. They send you the unlock code via e-mail. Follow the directions on their site. It should take you 5-10 minutes. It's very simple. Just make sure that you back up your /TA partition before unlocking, just in case something goes wrong, you can restore that. There's a really simple to use tool in this forum that can do this for you.

Thanks mate!! TA already backed up, will unlock the bootloader as soon as the latest build is released.
