[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] halifage:
All good on official 6. Simple and efficient. just waiting on the battery to calibrate in a few cycles. Thanks OP :good:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
Weekly is rolling out with new heads-up and reworked quite hours
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] halifage:
Can I flash it over official release 6?

Thanks.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] :
yes u can :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] halifage:
I did and it's working great. can wait for notifications to start HEADing UP ;)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
You can also go to settings/apps to enable for the apps you want
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] halifage:
That's exactly what i did. Looks awesome. Great work :thumbup:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Feodorus 4PDA:
Guys hello all. Whether tell it is possible as that to increase volume of the external speaker? And that volume of sound very silent.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pemell:
Yes. The kernel supports fauxsound. Look for it on play store.

Weekly 6.4 is building!

http://slimroms.net/index.php/changelog/489-pending-weekly-6-3-changelog
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] dbolivar:
Great, thanks! I've been following Slim's thread here and in the Z1 forums, and it seems a lot of interesting stuff has been done recently.

One question: do you build it using any compiling optimizations, such as Linaro and compiler flags (like the ones from JustArchi's thread)?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
Nope Archi's flags/optimizations do a lot of things that are red flags for us. He disables a lot of compiler warnings/errors to get it to work. Just dirty and calls for problems. That being said Rhine honami kernel uses linaro 4.8 toolchain from April of 2014 and besides being ran with O3 optimizations and some other gcc flsgsflags including -ffastmath (which basically means it's compiling with Ofast) and some others

Edit: So it seems I never enabled O3 on togari for w/e reason. Will correct that soon. Hopefully next weekly togari and Honami (my honami is running as such right now) compile with -Ofast
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
So it compiled fine, anyone interested in a test build to be sure it doesn't get stuck on Sony screen?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] dbolivar:
I am. BTW, I've just built it using JustArchi's optimizations and some other personal hacks. Built fine, but I haven't tested yet. Will gladly test both yours and mine and report here.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
I'm sure it compiled fine he disabled error and warning flags lol. I'm not saying it won't work I'm saying his implementation can cause issues in the long run, and if things do break because he disables the flags we will have a hard time debugging :p.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] dbolivar:
Got it... Yeah in fact I would never ask for support for such an experimental build. I also disabled debugging symbols (-g) and some other stuff that would make debugging nearly impossible. :) So, back to -O3, feel free to PM me with the download link and I'll do some testing. Thanks!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] S.D.Richards:
Am I missing a special reasoning or why do weekly updates not show in SlimCenter though I'm currently also running weekly? Couldn't there be just a toggle (show only stable/show all)? I find it a little tedious to look up the thread or the homepage.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
Our update notification needs revamp. Initially we didn't want notifications for weekly
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
New weekly is out. Enabled some things I never did for Togari, specifically it is now using GCC Ofast (O3+ffast-math) and enabled Motorola memultil. I'm working on updating the kernel to be compatible with Linaro 4.9 and possibly add graphite flags.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
Weekly is rolling out. Kernel switched to Linaro 4.9 from June and added some graphite flags
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] :
meh.. jouse .. three consecutive posts :laugh: :p
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
Yea but 5+ days apart lol
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pTeronaut:
It does appear that the forum software has stopped merging consecutive posts.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] xpdragon:
Just curious if the current SlimKat Build supports GPe version. Is there any plan to offer SlimKat version for GPe? SlimKat ROM is my first choice for all of my devices. Thanks.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
Sorry mate tried this in the past. Got almost no feedback so I dropped :/
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] xpdragon:
Thanks. Will try other ROMs then. There is good price drop on GPe version, hopefully there will be more interest in GPe SlimKat.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] appleknight:
Hate that I can't get into cwm with this! Only twrp, not a fan, is there a way to get into cwm with this guy?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] skarfreak:
hi everyone..

i got my sony x zu rooted, unlocked bootloader, and dual recovery..

Kernel: dOOMkERNEL V20... I am interested in this ROM. The question is am i good to go? if not, what should i do first>? Thanks so much...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
Flash another aosp kernel with cwm?Mind you of you do and things start misbehaving don't expect support here ;). Blame Sony for making recovery part of boot.img lol.

As long as it's unlocked with custom recovery you should be fine. Dl rom and gapps, verify sha1. Factory reset, format system cache and dalvik flash rom once. Reboot in to recovery rewipe everything and flash rom and gapps.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] appleknight:
Haha no doubt brother
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
as [MENTION=3877985]prbassplayer[/MENTION] said you could flash the the CM kernel from any ROM zip or even the Pimped port, but prbassplayer has made lots of additions to his kernel and I doubt that Pimped or CM will run Slim as well as his kernel. You can also get [NUT]'s dual recovery installed I think if you follow his instructions, just have Slim's boot.img at hand if it all goes wrong
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
New Stable!

http://slimroms.net/index.php/changelog/493-build-7
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] S.D.Richards:
Already flashed(dirty), seems smooth so far, good work.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
[MENTION=3877985]prbassplayer[/MENTION] did a build of my pimped port with most of your slim kernel commits, man it honks along. About 10% up on antutu at a guess
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] santzia:
I just installed the stable build 7. But my touchscreen isn't working I can't press anything. Any ideas. I really want to go back to slim again. It works flawlessly with every other room.

And I am on 6833. Tried re flashing but still no joy.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] appleknight:
Here's a straight up cm11 kernel ripped from 8/11/14 nightly for those of you who would rather use cwm! http://www.mediafire.com/?epudwce7gt8b0ks
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
CM kernel and my kernel is not even close. Just as a fyi. Lacks features and optimizations.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] appleknight:
Don't get me wrong, your kernel is great! I just don't like the blue flower, I like plain
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
um... the blue flower is my kernels and carbon, sure you are in the right thread?

Unless [MENTION=3877985]prbassplayer[/MENTION] has 'stolen' my hard work
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] appleknight:
Maybe fvck I dunno haha
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
Well guys unfortunately my device (honami)went screen first to a table leg and broke the screen & digitizer. Due to how difficult it is to service the device and how expensive it is to pay someone to do it, I will no longer support this device. However OmarEinea has stepped up to take the task of maintaining the Rhine family in general. So Welcome him and goodbye from myself

Cheers
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Triflot:
Thank you

Sorry to hear about your phone, and sorry you're leaving the family, so to speak. Thank you for excellent support, and best of luck in future endeavors! I assume you'll continue Slim development? :good: :)

Welcome, OmarEinea! :highfive: :cool:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
Lol yea I'm still working in slimroms, just not on Rhine family due to I don't own a working device lol.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] dbolivar:
Hey [MENTION=3877985]prbassplayer[/MENTION] , thanks for all your work, and sorry to hear about your phone! You've done a great job maintaining this firmware for the Z Ultra, and were kind enough to find another dev to take over your work. Cheers, and best of luck!

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] deadlyff:
Help me please !

IMEI deleted. What can i do?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] OmarEinea:
Unless you have a backup of your efs data, there really isn't a way to fix this. Best bet would be to flash the factory image and hope that fixes it, though I think the odds are low. If that doesn't do it, only Sony can fix it.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] deadlyff:
:(( Fvck :(( There is no information about backup of efs data! Or i can't see. Where is it? Damn it i have to do something.

---------- Post added at 11:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:18 PM ----------

Oh thank you. I flashed carbon rom But still same no imei. Now i flash original ftf i believe it's done. I'm sorry for bad English .
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] deadlyff:
Thank you bro problem solved! Now i wanna flash carbon rom. But i'm afraid to lost imei. How i can backup imei?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] nedooo:
I don't know sorry :(
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
you cant as far as I know, just do a nandroid or restore with a FTF like you just did.

What Sony firmware were you on when you flashed Slim?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] deadlyff:
Thx for help. Before i had .757 original firmware. Now i flashed original .757 ftf and imei came back. But now i flashed carbon rom but imei deleted again. :( how can i flash rom without deleting imei? Or how can i backup imei? Thank you. Now i Flashed. 757 Original firmware but i Wanna Flash carbon Without deleting imei.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
Nope
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sithu Htun:
Btw, I noticed that I could move app to sdcard but the apps, game data like 'obb' couldn't be moved to sdcard. Is it normal?

Hi,

I have problem, after installation via TWRP phone not boot up. Only black screen and vibrating once :(
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] OmarEinea:
Give me more details, did you try installing it again?

Did you wipe system and data before flashing?

And most importantly does your phone have an unlocked Bootloader?

Regards,

Omar.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ziaba:
Hi thanks to quick response the bootloader is locked
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pTeronaut:
Only ROMs based off of Sony's releases and a special version of the GPe port will boot on an Xperia Z Ultra with a locked bootloader.

To run any ROM based on AOSP, PA, CM or Slim etc, you will need to unlock the bootloader to do so. Whether that's possible for you is another matter.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] OmarEinea:
Well as mentioned in OP your device must have an unlocked bootloader to install the ROM,

so you have to unlock it if you wonna install this ROM or any AOSP based ROM.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ziaba:
worked:good: thanks

I want to know if i can use the doomkernel with this rom??? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2705130

No, Doomkernel is for sony firmware. Mind you Slim kernel isn't stock CM, you should use it a while.

Cool, I have a question. Is there a possibility that Slim Kernel for Sony Togari will get display gama adjustment ability?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
I'm fairly sure this isn't available in any Rhine kernel. Correct me if I'm wrong
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] nedooo:
I'm not sure what is Rhine :)

But Pimped kernel used it from Doom Kernel :)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2660679

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2705130

LCD color control, maybe it is not full gama etc control but still any adjustment is better then none. I hope soon it will be standard for Phones-Tablets like it is on TV set.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Triflot:
This is already working for me - granted, I'm running CandyKat at the moment, but I'm fairly certain it uses an identical kernel. I can use Trickster to set the colour channels.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] nedooo:
Just White balance...that seems poor..
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Triflot:
Is this not what you were referring to?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] nedooo:
More like this:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
As far as I know DoomLord has RGB control, not gamma. And that is implemented in the kernel iIrc
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
Thats from a Togari kernel? o-O
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] nedooo:
Ok, I was just asking, I never tried Doom Kernel.

But on Nexus devices gama tweak can do wonders, and Xperia Z Ultra has better display than we can see without this...now it is rather crippled...

Thanks for fast response.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
Thats all fine and dandy but you can't just apply nexus 4 or nexus 5 gamma control to Z1. Hell nexus 4 and Nexus 5 hacks aren't interchangeable. Needs a lot of ground up work, that no one is doing, or at least hasn't been successful.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] nedooo:
I know it is like coal mining :) and I know it is not cross device mod, still this thing would be great...more then great :)

I should get Z Ultra from my wife and I will give her Nexus 4, but it seems all non nexus family is handicapped.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
Small handycap for a superior device. I loved my Z1 while I had it. Camera alone blows away N4 and N5
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] LightningKitsune:
Is there a way to only have the percentage to show? I currently have the percentage and battery icon showing in the status bar.

While I'm here, how can I remove the 4G LTE icon to only show when I actually have data toggled on? I know it animates when data is on, but it's clutter in my eyes.

I would like to add that I get 3 or more icons that show up and completely fill my status bar when I'm charging my phone on my computer.

I find I have lots of icons on my status bar when I'm charging my phone, if it helps, I'm using the ATT version of my m8.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] dtblair24:
I noticed this too. That was one of the many things prompting me to turn mine into a Google Play Edition. So much unnecessary clutter. And something about AT&Ts LTE icon pissed me off lol.

Besides using different roms I'm not sure of a way to change that though...
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] LightningKitsune:
I got the Best Buy edition. Amber Gold doesn't look half bad, but yeah, if getting the Google Play Edition means that, should have gotten it.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] CraigP17:
No. You did the right thing. Just as last year with m7, you can fully convert it to a GPe
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] LightningKitsune:
How do I do that then?

[M.O.J.O. General] AmigaWolf:
How long does a repair take, i sent my M.O.J.O. back to the store (bol.com), because he was friezing and was getting hot.

It is taking 10 days now and still no word, i hear from them (bol.com) that it can take up to 4 weeks, why so long, are there so many

broken Mad Catz M.O.J.O. out there to be fixed?
[M.O.J.O. General] rickyd1982:
mad catz mojo freezing

Hello have you heard anything from them mine is doing the exact same thing freezing up getting really annoying now would like to know if its a software problem or hardware
[M.O.J.O. General] AmigaWolf:
I think it's a hardware problem because i don't get it immediately.

And if i take out the power cord and put it in again immediately he will freeze even faster, if i do nothing for a while (without the power cord) he will work again

for a short time, so i think the CPU or GPU or both are overheating, and thats a hardware problem.

And i hope i will not have this problem when i will get him back or get a new one.

It's been 2 weeks already and i still have not hear from them, how long does it takes to fix a dam Android TV BOX???
[M.O.J.O. General] rickyd1982:
mad catz mojo freezing

Mine seems to only do it when I'm using Ethernet to download from like the play store or something I know they said the new update causes problems with ur internet I'm sort of hopeing it can be fixed with a firmware update cause that is along time to wait hope u get it soon keep us posted ?
[M.O.J.O. General] JulianH:
mad catz mojo freezing

Mine also freezes when downloading from the play store and locks up completely when I am playing Walking Dead. I have opened a support ticket with Mad Catz and am still waiting for a response.... Hopefully it is a software issue and not hardware.
[M.O.J.O. General] AmigaWolf:
Ok rickyd1982 i will let you know how it went, and JulianH you also have it wile playing games like Walking Dead, then it also sounds like overheating.

But how can you bring out a Device that has Freezing problems, and why have i heard nothing yet from Mad Catz, it is normal they answer questions, or are

they the same as MeLE?

This is bad advertisement for Mad Catz.
[M.O.J.O. General] christoph80:
Let me know what they say. I started playing the Walking Dead and it freezes on me as well. That is the first time I've had freezing. I have had apps crash occasionally, but not freeze like this.
[M.O.J.O. General] JulianH:
Waiting for repair

My ticket is now at "In Progress" status. I will keep you all informed when/if I get a response from them.
[M.O.J.O. General] christoph80:
This very well may be the case, it was noticeably hot when I checked it after it froze both times on The Walking Dead. I haven't noticed it get very hot at other times.
[M.O.J.O. General] AmigaWolf:
Yes he can get hot, i hope i get a new one soon, because i just sent my MeLE M9 back to the store, for money refund, i was getting sick of all the

problems he had, there were 12 BIG problems i and others found, and non of them are fixed in mounts, after many firmware updates.
[M.O.J.O. General] AmigaWolf:
Unbelievable i am waiting 3 weeks now, and still they have not fixed him.

Wow are there that many broken devices at Mad Catz repair service, thats not good news for us.

Can you please hurry up Mad Catz.
[M.O.J.O. General] AmigaWolf:
So i have received an e-mail from Bol.com, and they say:

After investigation has shown that your article according to the guidelines of the manufacturer, unfortunately not more can be repaired.

For this reason, we will refund the amount you paid on your account back. Please take this with a maximum processing time of five days.

A new article unfortunately we can not send automatically. If you prefer, you can order it yourself again www.bol.com.

Sincerely,

bol.com Customer

So they (Mad Catz) can not repair the freeze problem, so guys this is not good news for you to hear, it means you have to order a new M.O.J.O.

Because it can't be fixed, and it takes 3 to 4 weeks till finally Mad Catz will look at your device and sees it can't be repaired (but it means it

costs too much to repair it).

So i think i now go for the Tronsmart Vega S89 2GB RAM, 16GB ROM with Android 4.4 KiKat, Costs almost half of what the M. O.J. O costs, and he is also fast, gets about 25000 a 30000 points in AnTuTu Benchmark 4.

And it supports Dolby Digital (AC3) 5.1 / DTS 5.1 / DTS-HD HRA 5.1 / DTS-HD MA 5.1 with HDMI passthrough in XBMC.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLwc6COFQ24

Or i go for the Minix Neo X8s, has the same hardware and cost the same, and comes in may, or i wait for the Rockchip RK3288, and that chipset is gone

have a ARM Cortex-A17 2.0GHz processor and Mali T628 GPU and it has H.265/HEVC support for 4K2K videos, and HDMI 2.0 for 4K @ 60 fps video

output, and Gigabit Ethernet.
[M.O.J.O. General] JulianH:
I'm getting nowhere with Mad Catz support.

They think my problem is not hardware and keep asking me to factory reset it and clear data!

I have done this but it still freezes/lock during downloads and in game.

Looks like it's back to retailer for a refund (and possibly buying a Nvidia Shield)

not looking good for M.O.J.O.
[M.O.J.O. General] rickyd1982:
new firmware needed

I'm not an expert but I have had other boxes and have had freezing in them to and a firmware update helped them I don't think it is hardware either I'm sitting tight till the new firmware comes out cause apart from the freezing this definitely is the best box about look at the trouble the new console s had at launch day these things happen its how they sort them out that counts
[M.O.J.O. General] AmigaWolf:
Sorry to say but If you BOX freeze every time it's NOT the best box out there, and sorry but Freezing is not a little problem that you can have if you

have a new Android TV BOX, but it's a BIG problem, because of that he is unusable, and Mad Catz is very slow with Firmware updates, only 1

firmware update in mounts.

It's a pity it could be a great Android TV BOX.
[M.O.J.O. General] rickyd1982:
I agree I never said it was a wee problem remember I have the same problem I said that it is the best box out of the many I have had and I have had a lot of boxes but I'm trying things here like adding fans and freeing up memory I have only 4 GB left on my internal memory so I am moving all my apps to SD as we speak to see if that helps did you have much memory left on urs when the freezing was happening my last box MINIX x7 when it was low on memory it had a mind of its own I also agree that we need firmware updates out quicker but ones are asking for kik kat I think this next firmware will make this box sing fingers crossed kik kat, ouya store, and an end to this freezing
[M.O.J.O. General] AmigaWolf:
No i had almost nothing on my M.O.J.O., so Storage was empty, and also memory was empty, I hope for you guys that there i gone be a

Firmware update soon like Android 4.4 KitKat, and that everything works as it should be.
