1. Extract the boot.img from the zip and flash it via flash tool (only if you aren't running a custom kernel)

2. Flash the latest ThunderZap zip. The zip includes a boot.img and modules to get the WiFi running. The setup automatically detects if you're running kk or lp.

There are almost no changes, mostly fixes.

[Sony Xperia L] Nargacuga-XDA:
Fixed my wi-fi problem

I'm have done that and trying my score in antutu v4, everytime using fx347 and TZ4.9 in 1,6Ghz i;m getting low score and laggy in game, score : 11k Kernel customization using Varun recommended preset when flashing via recovery.

Like i mention before, i was getting 15,3k antutu score using tz4.9 with cm11 fxp 347 (with the wrong install guide, just flashing the bootkk.img via fastboot) but it strange the wrong installation give me better score (absolutely without wi-fi :v)

Currently just using cm11 fxp347 with the stock kernel from the cm11zip, running antutuv4 with 1188Mhz Clock and getting 14,7k, and games not laggy.

I'm enough with using this, but that just bothering me,

1. Why in 1,6Ghz im getting lower score and lag?? why when im selecting the 1,7Ghz clock using cm11 feature called "performance" my device go blank?? is that anything wrong with what i've done?? (cause varun tz4.9 should be better than stock, im onece getting 17,8k score using tz4.9 and cm12 beta2)

2. Is that tz4.9 kk not compatible with fx347 yet?? so, what kernel did you recommend me??

3. Any tips and tricks??

How to install this ROM

Hi! I I bought my Xperia L a year ago and now its warranty is going to end soon. Could you, kind sirs, please tell me how to install this ROM to my phone step by step? do I need root? unlock bootloaders?

please be kind to my noob self...
[Sony Xperia L] sal-neo:

Research, Research, Research. There is no alternative to that. Get yourself acquainted with Bootloaders, Recovery, kernel and taking backups of ROM's. Many people have made separate threads about installing a new ROM's, go ahead and read them, they are most useful.

But here are some general instructions.

You will need to install Vroot, Flashboot- for flashing ROM's. Download the latest nightly from cyanogenmod web site and extract it and use the Boot.img file from there.

You will need to Root the phone (you can use Vroot) and unlock the Bootloader using flashboot (Sony provides the code required to do so )

Then login to recovery and clean the data and dalvik cache then flash the ROM and then the Gapps.

Follow the video below but do not use any of the files, they are all outdated, instead use the one on cyanogenmod web site.

Note: Do take a backup of your current ROM you will need to flash it as the phone will be stuck on Boot loop when you unlock Bootloader, when it does flash your stock ROM.

Hi.

Latest CM11 build that I ever used was the official one from Aug 27 ! for no specific reason I never tried FXP or other Roms, and I also was busy/playing with Xposed modules, untill CM12 was released. so I don't know what is changed since then in CM 11 builds, except the improvement in call recorder. is it possible for you guys to inform me on this matter? or I'm asking for a lot?

Hi,

I currently have Windows 8.1 installed, I tried to install ADB drivers but but it showed an error saying Incompatible with Win8 x64.

I even tried to run it in compatibility mode with Win 8 and Win 7 but still din't work.

The ADB drivers worked perfectly with the stock rom on Win8.1

Any HELP?

Can you try to install driver which comes with flashtool itself.

After installing flashtool, you can find drivers for <Installation Directory>/flashtool/Drivers.

Also you need to disable "Digital signature enforcement" for win 8.1.

Hello [MENTION=4309448]varun.chitre15[/MENTION]

Will you release final build for CM11 before code freeze with fixed manual network search & MAC address?
[Sony Xperia L] EternalXDA:
Hey [MENTION=4309448]varun.chitre15[/MENTION].

Is there a reason that location services work better in CM12, compare to CM11? much better actually!

in CM 12, I was able to get my location in no time, with 'device only' mode. but now in CM11, it's not working for me, at all. not even with 'high accuracy' mode. it's the only bad thing that I know about CM11 builds. (location never worked for me in cm11 but as I said, it was working flawlessly in cm12).

I thought maybe there's some stuff that can be merged or something , so we can have solid location services in both cm11 and cm12 builds.

Thank you for your all works. the latest experimental build is smoothest and fastest I ever had.

Edit: also there's no scanning effect in the experimental build. for people who are interested. :)
[Sony Xperia L] Captain_Hungary:
I'm using the 04.01 test build and I can confirm that the scanning effect is completely gone. Also aosp keyboard is fixed (no more crashing when swiping in hungarian).

Location is slow, and as I've noticed this is the same problem as on 4.1 stock with the GPS. (It gets frozen for 30 secs before every fix)

Overall performance and stability is great.

But I still don't know how the hell can Google services keep the phone awake if I disabled it's ability to do so.

Do anybody know a workaround for that without installing exposed or not using network location? :confused:
[Sony Xperia L] EternalXDA:
the first night I flashed the experimental build, I had a battery drain too. (almost 40%) don't know what was the cuase, but now I have no problem with battery. so maybe it's the same case for you? if it is, give it some time, reboot a few times...!

I don't know about lacation services in JB 4.1 but in JB 4.2.2 it was working pretty good in my room, same was with cm12. it is cm11 that I have problem with :-[
[Sony Xperia L] lleuname:
Download 'GPS status' on play store. Open it, let it search for some satellites and lock down the device.

It always works for me on any cyanogenmod rom I've tested.

(after the first time doing these steps... I don't need to open up the app anymore. Example: geolocation in photos, location on Evernote notes... It goes automatically.

---------- Post added at 04:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:20 PM ----------

Are you sure you disabled EVERYTHING that can awakes the phone on privacy settings?

As I remember I disabled at least 3 things related to Google services in each 'service'. (cm11 here, but I think the rule is the same...)

Only the 3G connection drains my battery quickly... If I disable data, the phone runs 1,5-2 days without problems... Hope cm12 is better.
[Sony Xperia L] varun.chitre15:
You all will have the test build with Manual Network search and Wifi MAC-Address fixes shortly on

http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=taoshan

Once I get confirmation that the fixes work fine, I will turn ON the official taoshan weekly nightlies for CM11.
[Sony Xperia L] Captain_Hungary:
All right I'll give some time to it then.

I disabled everything, when I used kk last time I played around with it. Even taken away it's permission to keep the device awake and reinstalled it, yet it didn't help. Only the unbounce app solved it.

About the GPS: it works, but not exactly as it should. Open up any GPS app and wait. After a few secs it will find some satellites but then the signals will stop updating and stay frozen. Then the previously found signal will be dropped and a new search will be started. This time location will be fixed in a few secs and it will be updated until you close the app. But each time you reopen the app this process will be repeated. (So when a new fix is needed). The interesting part is that I've used the last 4.1 ROM recently and it has the same problem while on 4.2 GPS is fine.

Re- Unmount external sd card + create swap partition

I donno, does no where here is bothered about this. There used to be an option to unmount sdcard in stock rom.

I don't seem to find an option to unmount sdcard, using beta 2.

Plus, I was trying to create swap partition. But it failed

Commands were,

targ=/ext_card/.swapfile

dd if=/dev/zero of=$targ bs=$((1024*1024)) count=1024

mkswap $targ

swapon $targ

but swapon command failed.

[Sony Xperia L] DrXperience:
Same happens with me - Even Power button is laggy

Similar things happens with me. I guess it might be due to high ram usage or something else.

For swap kernel must support it so if it's failed that means caf kernel doesn't support swap.

Not able to turn on the phone while charging

While charging the phone when it's turned off, I'm not able to turn it on. I have to remove the charger to turn it on. Is this a bug in beta 2 or just happening with me?
[Sony Xperia L] DrXperience:
I get your point : but look from this point of viwe

Firstly thanks for infroming caf kernel doesn't support swap. I clears my stupid anxiety.

Second I wish to unmount it because I was trying to use AParted application which can create second partition in ext_card which is used by Link2SD application. Though this can be done manually over computer, but its a hassel to remove sd and do the stuff and re-insert.

I don't mind, if this is feature is not available, but I wish to know proper command procedure to be carried out to unmount and remount the sdcard. As AParted cannot work with mounted SD Card.

I used umount /storage/sdcard1 command. But it doesn't seems to make android believe that sd card is removed. So, even if sdcard is no longer mounted in system and not visible in File explorer, but AParted keeps saying that I need to disable the sdcard from settings->storage.

Lastly, in stock rom there was a option to connect usb as Mass storage. Which was lot helpfull in linux operating system.

Sorry, post became so long. And thanks for replying.

Hi,

hope anybody can help. i had cm11, one of the latest builds, and there was the notification that a new update was available, unfortunatly that was cm12, kind of buggy this version.

how do i go back to the latest cm11 version? i put a cm11zip on my phone and wanted to flash via recovery but got an error message. also the recovery seems to be a different version that i installed, not cwm.

however, i tried to delete all the caches and to flash with the cm11 zip. couldnt find the option to wipe dalvic though.

why was it even possible that a cm12 nighty was available in the update settings, despite having cm11 installed?

can anybode please give me a hint how to reinstall cm11?

thank you
[Sony Xperia L] mvv1277:
Since you are on CM12, CM12 recovery has bugs, It doesn't work at all.

So first you need to flash, Thunderzap's boot.img file, that'll give you working recovery.

After you get that recovery , You can do clean install of CM11.

Hope it clears the problem. :)
