i removed it from the builds. trying to keep the code clean has possible.

users can still use a flashable zip with it or push the apk to priv-app and set proper permissions.
[Xperia Z Android Development] :
Thanks both for the info!

I got it working, and it's a keeper :D

Maybe I'm bein too nosy here, but I don't understand why you'd remove it. Users can disable/enable it at will, and I don't see how it will cause code mess.

Please disregard this if it's not appropriate :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] nihilista:
I read a bit about this feature, am i right, if fast boot enabled, there is no possibility to go into recovery from start? So what if system didn't boot fine, is there a chance to reset fastboot without going into system? Maybe stupid question but just want to know not getting into trouble if something fails ;)

Thx for all, waiting for new nightly (which hopefully has the fix for theming/xposed issue...)
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
CM will implement it on the source code...

check this PA commit on theirs gerrit: https://gerrit.paranoidandroid.co/#/c/4178/

its from CM.. so just a bit longer and we will have quickboot coded on the sources.
[Xperia Z Android Development] ZeRoWaR:
No, recovery still works fine. And you can boot into it while restarting and so on.

Thought this was already commited, but only for CM11S ... http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/61440 and that it wouldn't come to CM11 :confused:
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
well, you seem more informed about the subject than i am..

i will think about it, if include it on the builds or not..

Installed new build from 17/07, recovery says no root and i run into bootloop....

Tried dirty flash and fresh install...both didn't work...
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
here we go again...
[Xperia Z Android Development] Z O X:
No issues with stock 4.4 or 4.3 with stock or custom kernel.
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
the issue happens on official builds?

ps: official CM builds..
[Xperia Z Android Development] nihilista:
New uploaded build? will test again...
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
no.. its still 20140717 .. you had another 20140717 build? different time, i mean.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Z O X:
Yes. Yours M7 was and one with earlier date were the only builds without this issue.
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
sorry, then is something in the original CM 11 source code. can't do much thing about it..
[Xperia Z Android Development] nihilista:
Seems so, first downloaded build has same name, you uploaded different build at different time? Btw, downloaded build uploaded 9:49, that works now ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] n0p4rk1ng:
How do i install this? I'm confused
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_yuga
[Xperia Z Android Development] Richy99:
Install instructions:

first time

- power off the phone:

- hold vol+ and plug usb to boot into fastboot (blu led)

- fastboot flash boot boot.img (extract boot.img from an official cm 11 zip)

- fastboot reboot

- enter recovery, on boot led will be violet for 3'', during this period press vol+

- flash rom zip

- flash gapps zip

- wipe

- reboot

taken from the OP posts, you will need have your bootloader unlocked before anything of the above can be done
[Xperia Z Android Development] duki994:
The only thing lacking in CM11 is stereo microphone. It doesn't work with Audio Recorder app (former STM10 Recorder)
[Xperia Z Android Development] nihilista:
Didn't know that Yuga has a stero microphone... ;) I think it don't have 2 microphones, software only can emulate 2 channels. I'm using recforge pro here, which makes very good recording job under cm11, tested yesterday and was impressed :)

Is unlocked bootloader really necessary ?

Hi to all,

I'm on existenz 1.5.5 with locked bootloader and NUT dual recovery, I'm interested in trying this rom, is the unlocked bootloader really necessary or can I try to flash the cm11 rom with the TWRP ?

I Installed existenz 1.5.5 over Android 4.2.2, is it ok or I should upgrade to kitkat before installing this ROM ?

Thanks in advance,

Giuseppe
[Xperia Z Android Development] timchew:
Don't think you can try any cm 11 rom on lb as you need to flash custom kernel and that will soft brick your phone.

You need the unlock your bl.
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
decided not to include QuickBoot on the builds..

those who want to use it, you have several threads on XDA about it, or ...

https://www.mediafire.com/folder/fo4cilmpp8fea/QuickBoot

in that folder you have the quickboot.apk (push to priv-app) and the flashable zip file (flash on cwmr or twrp)

regards.

nightly 20140718 is up.
[Xperia Z Android Development] tomicop:

[Xperia Z Android Development] macia10:
Hi Infected,

I've installed twrp from this link http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/187. Is there any way to uninstall it and go back to cwm?
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
can't say on my behalf.. i'm running nightly builds on mine.

if you flashed has a FOTAKernel, following TWRP page instructions, then only flashing a stripped kernel, then cwm recovery and then build + gapps. if it doesn't work, then flash back to stock 4.4.2 using original Sony ROM ftf, and do the same thing like i described before.
[Xperia Z Android Development] macia10:
Ok thats a bit too time consuming. Bassically my problem is that I cannot update my nightly as twrp says that I have incompatibile dala and I need to do a factory reset first...
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
so do the factory reset... when i received my honami today, and i fastbooted boot.img, reboot into recovery, and when i was to flash the build zip, i got and error from the CWMr also saying i need a data wipe. so i did, to clear Sony rom, flashed build + gapps, and everything is ok and happy .. ;)

backup your stuff, do the data wipe, and come later saying the result.
[Xperia Z Android Development] macia10:
Well from the time it begun I do a backup of data then I format Data partition install the zip and restore data and everything works just fine but its troublesome ;p
[Xperia Z Android Development] tomicop:
i really want to install this rom on my xperia z. could u give me a direct link where i could see hot to install cwm recovery compatibel with 11? please

---------- Post added at 08:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:23 PM ----------

first time

- power off the phone:

- hold vol+ and plug usb to boot into fastboot (blu led)

- fastboot flash boot boot.img (extract boot.img from an official cm 11 zip)

- fastboot reboot

or in these 4 steps i install cwm recovery??
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
yep, follow those steps.
[Xperia Z Android Development] tomicop:
and, if i want to update to another nightly? i have to do the same? or straight from the cmdupdater?

---------- Post added at 09:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:21 PM ----------

it doesnt work. after i write fastboot flash boot boot.img it appears failed
[Xperia Z Android Development] nihilista:
First you need unlocked bootloader. if coming from stock rom. Then you can use flashtool for flashing boot.img, if you want you can flash twrp recovery too.

Btw, the steps explained before should work too, boot.img should have cwm inside, i prefer twrp but thats my taste ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] tomicop:
When i use flashtool, what i have to do with my phone? Switch it off? Connect to pc?
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
enable root on apps and adb, enable debugging, connect phone to pc, and run flashtool.

i still prefer the "old-school way"; sudo fastboot flash boot boot.img && sudo fastboot reboot

regards.
[Xperia Z Android Development] tomicop:
i dont have root on my phone? how do i enable it? i have the stock 4.4.2 firmware
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
then start here:

http://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/

follow the steps on the webpage. return when you have unlocked your bootloader.

then will take it from there..

ps: read carefully... you will loose your warranty by unlocking your bootloader. you can still repair your phone on Sony, but you'll pay.
[Xperia Z Android Development] tomicop:
i have unlocked bootloader
[Xperia Z Android Development] nihilista:
You have to connect phone in fastboot mode, click flash device button,set fastboot mode (not flash mode). Now take kernel image and flash it. Its easy and for that you shouldnt need root.

For fastboot mode power off, hold volume up and connecht usb. Then you can use "old school way" or flashtool, both do the same. Look at the tutorials here, if you want more information ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] tomicop:
After i flash the kernel img with flashtool, how do i entry cwm recovery to install zip?
[Xperia Z Android Development] nihilista:
Start phone, press volume up while led is violet, better keep pressing some time.
[Xperia Z Android Development] tomicop:
Another question. I flash boot.img from nightly18, if i want to update.to nightly 19, i have to do.the same.thing with boot.img?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Richy99:
no you dont
[Xperia Z Android Development] tomicop:
it is any problem if i have the adb drivers installed, its any problem?

If you install custom rom, you dont have this apps, if you need them you have to stay with stock. Maybe you find some of that apps for install, but thats not the ricght thread here ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] tomicop:

What is the other file on the download which have the .zip.md5sum? I want to flash this rom..
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
cm-11-20140718-INFECTED-yuga.zip.md5sum

checksum's the hash to see if it matches.

you can check the md5 of a file by:

$ md5sum filename.zip

or if you're in windows, theres lots of programs to check the hashes.
[Xperia Z Android Development] n0p4rk1ng:
Should I download that to flash the rom or just the zip?
[Xperia Z Android Development] dubist:
can you tell me where is difference between this rom and your nameless rom ?

I love you NamelessRom but now this Rom is turning me up :D
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
i am not building Nameless anymore, but the main difference between them, is that nameless has some more features/options, comparing to CM.

What does it mean by nightly? And is it safe to update it in the settings->about phone->cyanogenmod update and checking all update? Or just the release channel? Thank you.
[Xperia Z Android Development] nihilista:
Nightly is an unstable build (maybe call it beta). Normally it works fine but sometimes it could break something and not function properly. If you want an abolutely stable system for all day use and if you don't know about nandroid, flashing etc., don't flash it ;)

And you can't upgrade via cyanogenmod update, this is not official cm build. Just download from infected's server and flash in recovery.

You find tutorials here if you don't know how to do.

just decided to bite the bullet and unlocked my bootloader, and flashed this rom,

now i know 1st boot suppose to take longer but just how long ???

its been 10 minutes on the cm rotating arrow logo ....:eek:
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
did you wiped data, system and cache?
[Xperia Z Android Development] optiplex2012:
yes

let me tell u how i did the install, maybe did something wrong

i extracted the boot.img file from the lates rom, the one i downloaded here and flashing from the cwm , did the fastboot command to install it

in cwm i wiped data, i think cache and dalvik it didnt wipe cause couldnt mount \sdcard

than flashed the rom and gapps, and reboot

what am i doing wrong ????

and thx for the quick reply :)

---------- Post added at 09:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 AM ----------

i checked the wipe thing and it cant format data, cant mount it

is that the problem why it cant boot ???

EDIT:

ok i solved the issue, indeed the fact that data can not be mounted and format caused the issue

so i flashed TWRP.img and this one managed to format data, and CM11 is up and running :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
you didn’t needed to mount anything... :)

but ok, glad you sorted it out.
