amazing release

SlimKat RC2 is amazing. Haven't found any real issues yet. However, this is not really a bug, but is there anyway to get the Dashclock Widget to read in degrees Celsius instead of Farenheit? Thanks again
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Open dashclock settings, go to extensions then tap on the 3 dot for weather extension
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] TrialReg:
Report NEW RC2

Bluetooth -> works -> can be activated without error

NFC -> works -> gets detected but LLC Length error in log

GPS -> works

Sound -> works

Outgoing and Incoming Call -> works

Battery Lifetime -> amazing

Thank you again...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ilia1985:
This is not Rom related... Just open dashclock settings and on weather extension you'll see 3 menu dots press then chose settings and change to Celsius :)

I don't know if you can fix this but CM has a nice feature where you can pause music with the camera button when the screen is off.

Anyways thanks again :)

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Did you bother reading last few posts on the kernel thread? :p
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] husky69:
Yes, I did. But as sometimes people don't continue reading all threads I thought maybe someone in here has some experiences and doesn't know about my question in the kernel thread...

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] _Garry_:
Yes you can use the latest "Pimped Kernel".

On my Z1 it runs stable. So far I dont have any problems/bugs.

Here a little proof. XD

And here you see that SlimKat runs with f2fs on cache and userdata

Gesendet von meinem Xperia Z1 mit Tapatalk
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] zero_5:
I could say that steps followed to install the kernel SlimKat I just stay in slimkat logo.

I seguis these steps:

flashe rom slim kat

flashe GAPPS

Pimped Flashe kernel

Go to mounts & storage and select "format / data and / data / media (/ sdcard)"

Still in mounts & storage, select "format / cache"

where I'm going wrong?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] _Garry_:
You first need to install the Pimped kernel. This is the correct way:

Flash pimped kernel

Reboot recovery

Flash SlimKat

Flash Gapps

Flash pimped kernel

Format cache

Format data

Reboot system

Gesendet von meinem Xperia Z1 mit Tapatalk
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] zero_5:
Thank install Kernel pimped achieved.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] madalone:
hey Garry, what were the steps you took to install the F2FS Pimped kernel?

I followed these steps:

Flash pimped kernel

Reboot recovery

Flashed F2FS-cache

Flash SlimKat

Flash Gapps

Flash pimped kernel

(do I have to flash F2FS-cache again?)

Format cache

Format data

Reboot system

but my phone's stuck on the SlimKat bootanimation.. :/
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] _Garry_:
Since the cache flash zip didn't work on my z1 I used the cm-f2fs kernel from the pimped kernel topic.

This were my steps:

Flash cm-f2fs kernel

Reboot recovery

Flash SlimKat

Flash Gapps

Flash cm-f2fs kernel

Reboot recovery

Wipe data/media (sdcard)

Wipe cache

Flash pimped f2fs kernel

Reboot recovery <- this step I made to check if kernel was proper installed

Reboot system

Hi.

I tried the new 4.0 version honami. I tried as staded on previous posts the pimped kernel but in ext4 version. But the camera don't works.

I misse a white thema, and the radio. Is there somthing for this rom?

Thaks.

PS: i forgot, i have ubl.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Camera is generally flaky regardless of kernel.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] peddarson:
New stable release works like a charm. Only camera needs to start twice until it works.

Are the sources from the official kitkat implemented yet?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
No. The FXP crew is still working on that. My personal build is based on the kitkat release by Sony, still not right. Camera has its usual flakiness and there's a pretty bad memory leak that (I think) is kernel related.

Speak of the devil, 4.4 update got merged on CM.... Still think kernel has a memory leak. Going to get everything up to snuff on gerrit and test
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] DVDeus:
Hi,

is this rom applicable for the Z1 Compact version? Afaik it's only the screen resolution, that differs, right?

Thanks
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Not as simple. I'm not maintaining it but there might be some unofficial builds for it on xda.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] peddarson:

Hi.

I saw this rom runs only with his own kernel, but if i install only the rom, i get no root. I tried to install the super su zip, but it doesnt work, to get root.

So please help me to optain root in this rom.

I have a unlocked bl.

Other roms work.

I tried the romaur, but with that rom, i get no access to external rom. All pictures taken and saved to sd, are all gone after a reboot. In this rom it doesnt happen. Is it dependin on root or kernel?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] madalone:
You can try and flash supersu.. Btw, I'm using SlimKat with Pimp kernel and it works great.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Rom has root, enable it in developer options
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] xneo70:
I tried the rom again, and sow the root to be activated.

But now i am getting weired. It doesn't see my sd kard with 64gb. It's a extfat formatted.

Because it's exfat. Use fat 32.

Every time I reboot the phone, it ends up being in vibrate mode and I have to manually increase the volume. Anyone else facing this same issue?

Also, camera stopped working. I rebooted it 5 times and still when I open the camera app, it would be on a black screen for sometime, then responds for one sec and that frame remains.

I then cleared cache and dalvik cache and camera started responding again. Not sure if this is common too.

Just flashed newest weekly build 4.4:

Everything seems to work fine.

Except for camera.

When it doesn't want to start and I close/kill app, the back of the phone becomes warm and the battery starts to drop fast. As I checked where it comes from it seems - to me - that Android-System is causing the problem. When I restart phone everything is fine,even when camera works. Only when the camera doesn't work.

Could only be me, dunno. Anyone has the same problem?

Ok I can confirm this works, had the same issue, unable to mount 64GB external SD, formatted to fat32 with Aparted app and it is now working.

I do wonder why it wouldn't have it at exfat, is that a kernel limitation?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ganeshbiyer:
The nightly is not stable. It just freezes out of the blue and the reboots. There is no pattern for the freeze. I am on the default ROM kernel.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
We don't do nightly you sure it's SlimKat?

without logs I can't help, it'd been rock solid on my device (xx06).do a bug report right after it reboots.

Exfat is proprietary from Microsoft. We haven't added it to Slim. Fat32 works just as good, as long as you keep file sizes under 4GB, and is more widely compatible (my 64GB Samsung sdcard came formated to fat32, not sure why people change it to exfat or its a specific brand that does it)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ganeshbiyer:
My bad. It is weekly and not nightly.

Next time it happens, I will post the logs.

I am on weekly 3781.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Zentac:
Ok clear, and fair enough i guess. I was slightly concerned about TWRP backups, but I see they are muti-file, so should be save.

Mine is a 64GB Samsung card as well and came in exfat, I guess they sell different versions.

What I have done now is format it in ext4, just as a tryout, although this will give the obvious compatibility issues with windows, it also seems not to be supported... back to fat32 and stay away from overly large files. Just out of interest, is the supported file system defined in the kernel or ROM?

On another note, I seem to have issues with getting Google Now to play along, I get "not available in your country" whatever I try - will try re-flashing next) (the background picture changed from blue to white as well, I am certain this is for a reason, but haven't figured it out yet :silly: )
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
The format is handled in both rom and/or kernel, depends go how you go about it. Gnow works fine for me, where do you live ?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Zentac:
Holland/Netherlands, but that has never caused me any issues... works fine on stock or my other phone (LG G2). But I will try a few things before I bother you with it again :)

Haven't gotten around to saying how happy I am with the ROM! :D

I enjoy it every second I am using it :victory:

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Factory reset, format system, cache dalvik and reflash. Maybe the recovery you came from wasn't 100%.

Proprietary so probably never, maybe in a distant future.

Flash a custom stock kernel with cwm or TWRP, then flash.

For stable build 4 you need a pimped kernel before April. The reason is because pimped kernel is now using CAF. And to use the CAF kernel with slim you need latest weekly.

Yes you can. Just flash like you usual do. But for latest weekly you need to format system manually.

After first boot to system you can flash pimped kernel and you can even say that you are official been pimped XD
