You are one from the devs of the 4k and 120fps mod, so I think you could help.

With olokos "we're" trying to push up framerate on older devices like SP, T or, in this case, V. Just look few pages back.
[Xperia Z1 General] Luhccas-X10:
The problem with "Camera unnavailable" when choose 4k or timeshift video.
[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:
install the latest version and superuser mod from Sejar's module. You can find a how to install in the FAQ in of the first posts.
[Xperia Z1 General] Jiyeon90:
So can we get 4k & time shift video on 4.4.4?

Sent from my Xperia Z1
[Xperia Z1 General] Luhccas-X10:
Already have it.

The problem is when you use the camera for a while.
[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:
From what I've seen so far it works great on 4.4.4.
[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:
Please explain it a bit more...
[Xperia Z1 General] Luhccas-X10:
If i take some pictures/videos/timeshift video/4k and close the camera, use another things in my phone then back to the camera it normally show me the message "camera not available".

I'm on latest FW, rooted, everything running fine, no "tweaks" installed or any kind of modification. (in xposed i use just Serajr and Ultimate dynamic navbar. And tested with UDN turned off too)

By the way, thanks for your attention and all your efforts!

I just received my Z2 today and will sell my Z1! :good:
[Xperia Z1 General] play3man:
[MENTION=4300205]olokos[/MENTION] Do you still work on that mod for V or not?
[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:
I'm leaving to another country in 2 weeks time so I'm busy with other stuff right now, sorry. :(
[Xperia Z1 General] play3man:
Okay :)
[Xperia Z1 General] TheEndHK:
Since the software stabilization on Z2 is total new, I think we are highly possible need to do some kernel changes to use it or Sony does really implemented some new motion sensor in Z2.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezvq6DLn3ho&noredirect=1

Well, Z2 really ultra smoothing ....... Z2 vs S5 vs M8 in digital video stabilization test

Can you please update the current ver with color patch 1st? I think it is even more important for us who are still on 4.4.2...lol...

http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z2/general/firmware-17-1-2-314-t2819192/post54215474

Z2 today just released the new ver(17.1.2.A.314) but it is still stuck on 4.4.2 and no one know why. Maybe you can check out any lib files changed or updated in this firmware for 4K and Timeshift.
[Xperia Z1 General] vr2008:
is there any way to get official updates after installing this mod? I mean because of rooting phone.
[Xperia Z1 General] npoljak:
I just updated to the latest 4.4.4, via Sony PC Companion (Had trouble with OTA).

Some help..

So I was on an unrooted generic unbranded rom with locked bootloader.

Rooted through towelroot and backed up TA, installed SuperSU and dual recovery.

1st requirement, check!

Went to shem's video tutorial and downloaded everything (deodexed zip, 4K version 1.3, xposed framework apk and serjar's apk)

When I booted into TWRP recovery and installed the deodexed zip the phone went into a bootloop.

Big mistake: I didn't make a nandroid backup.

So, now what?

I guess that if I flash a generic 4.4.2 KK ftf file (C6903_14.3.A.0.757_Central Europe 1 (1276-4318), this ftf to be particular) through flashtool, I 'll get to ground zero again.

And then what?

If all goes well, I will meet the first requirement again.

But what about deodexing then?

Before or after installing this deodexing zip must I wipe something? (dalvik,system, factory reset)

And then reboot to system?

Should I use a tool, like Kamone's to deodex this particular rom?

Thank you in advance for lending a helping hand here!
[Xperia Z1 General] lagalaga:
In flashtool, you can choose to only flash system. Make Sure that you do not select the data partition for wiping.

You do not need to be deodexed for the mod.
[Xperia Z1 General] jamesbdx:
Deodexing your rom is not necessary at all, I'll never know why everyone always said to deodex their rom for this mod
[Xperia Z1 General] Steve_max:
Why did you deodex the ROM? The mod works just as well with an odexed ROM (and IMHO, you shouldn't deodex the ROM unless you absolutely need to: the speed degradation of deodexing isn't worth it just for a vague "better possibility to mod").

Also, if you had a .757 ROM and tried to deodex with a 4.4.4 specific ZIP, you will get a bootloop. You'd need a deodex ZIP specific for your 4.4.2 version .757 ROM.

If you're restarting from scratch, flash a .108 (4.4.4) ROM (don't need to factory reset), install dual recovery, install Xposed, install Serajr's module, activate the Superuser mod, then flash this mod.That's it.
[Xperia Z1 General] yngwie_m:
Done it!

So to sum up:

I flashed the .757 ftf through flashtool.

Having a locked bootloader I went through PC Companion and updated to KK 4.4.4

Rooted through towelroot, took another TA backup (don't know if that was necessary),

installed dual recovery and SuperSU.

I passed on the deodex part, installed Xposed framework and Serjar's module

Went to TWRP, flashed version 1.3 of the port and here I am with 4K and Timeshift video.

Thank you all for your immediate and prompt help! Wouldn't have made it else!

Hello, im on z1 compact D5503_14.4.A.0.118_Vodafone DE.

[Xperia Z1 General] Stealthy Hunter:
Do I need to deodex my Z1 in order to get this mod??

I have UB KK 4.4.4...If so the patch is .757fw which is different of mine .108fw...what to do exactly??
[Xperia Z1 General] joecool666:
yes you need to deodex your rom, goto cross dev, download deodex tool ,extract into itself ,run program and its all on screen on how to deodex,hope this helps, regards joe
[Xperia Z1 General] jamesbdx:
Oh for god's sake, you just have to go back 1 PAGE to see that deodexing isn't necessary at all for this mod.
[Xperia Z1 General] joecool666:
my son i got f.c when i installed it on my device ,but when i deodex my rom it all worked fine no more f/c yeah get me ,regards lol
[Xperia Z1 General] jamesbdx:
Well something probably went wrong when you tried because it seems to work fine for everyone on an odexed rom. I dunno, you left steadyshot on, you didn't activate the module correctly in Xposed, could be a lot of reasons but it definately doesn't FC on a stock rom. Oh and I seriously doubt I could be your son :laugh:

Anyway, to Stealthy Hunter, you don't have to bother deodexing, just make sure Steadyshot isn't activated in the camera app and make sure the superusermod module is activated in Xposed aswell as in the actual Xperia Xposed app and you'll be just fine
[Xperia Z1 General] joecool666:
yeah i tried with it worked then i was getting f/c so reinstalled it again and again, still no camera ,so i doedex my rom a nd there we go work everytime , and i did have exposed installed , maybe the op made another with bug fix cause i dont need it anymore, i happy camper lol, regards joe and still now if i try and install it i will get an error on camrea, thanks for the info about the steadyshot
[Xperia Z1 General] Steve_max:
Absolutely no need to deodex. You can deodex your ROM if you like the speed hit or if you want another mod that relies on not having separate Optimized Dalvik EXecutable classes (also known as ODEX files), but every mod can be done for odex as well, just with a little more effort by the coder; or, as in this case, the developer can just delete the .odex when replacing the APK.
[Xperia Z1 General] joecool666:
yeah i think we have already found the answer for for this, thanks for your input, regards joe,
[Xperia Z1 General] CM17X:
That's what they say but is not tangible or perceptible on Z1. I was afraid of deodex for try [MENTION=5191347]Chocolatetrain[/MENTION] mod because of your state, but now that I'm deodex, screw odex.

[Xperia Z1 General] TheEndHK:
Many guys here are spamming wrong information regarding how bad of a deodexed rom, it's very weird. Indeed, I think mod should do little things to stop them.

The only advantage of odex is faster loading like apps first time start up time(not cached) and gaming during from stage to stage(loading). Deodexed won't hurt the OS & gaming pure performance.

Just to ask, in the latest build is the EV setting working in the Timeshift video or not?

For some reason, installation went fine on my z1compact, 4K works excellent but timeshift mode just records 120fps but i can't find an option to slow parts down, nothing pops up to edit it, it just saves my 120 fps video and that's it.

Am I missing something here

[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:
No and no. Sorry.
[Xperia Z1 General] Gamers33:
i wait other answers. Thank you :)
[Xperia Z1 General] tomascus:
Well, he gave you the only answer.
[Xperia Z1 General] Riyal:
Sad truth Xperia Z and Z Ultra won't really have any 4k support.

For Xperia Z the issue is the processor which is snapdragon s4 pro that doesn't really support 4k.

And For Xperia Z Ultra although the processor support 4k the camera can't. 4k video is literally 8megapixels of resolution and Z Ultra's camera is also 8mp. The problem is... Xperia Z Ultra's camera max resolution is 3264 x 2448 and the 4k video that snapdragon processors support is only @ 3840x2160

As you can see there... The width of the camera just won't work. The sensor should be a little bit more wider in order for 4k to work.
[Xperia Z1 General] Pablosch23:
And what about timeshift video in xz? I wouldn't use 4k anyways
[Xperia Z1 General] ruggyboss:
That could be possible, but still not working right now.
[Xperia Z1 General] Riyal:
I could try... But obviously need help since I don't own Xperia Z or Z Ultra.

Firstly I need some info if installing just the SuperVideoCamera.apk on your devices work or not? I mean yeah 4k obviously won't work but we only need timeshiftvideo to work.

In short I need to make timeshift video to work on at least 45fps on Xperia Z or Z Ultra. If any Z owners manage to make timeshift video work on their Xperia Z series devices then please reply to this thread and tell me how to make it work.
[Xperia Z1 General] Pablosch23:

Install, without root.

Is there a way to install, without root? I have it rooted, with XZDualrecovery and my bootloader is still locked, but the risk of losing warranty is very high.
[Xperia Z1 General] gregbradley:
No, and why ask when you are rooted anyway?

Look in the theme and app section to see the thread there on how to install it
[Xperia Z1 General] ruggyboss:
Actually I think warranty is gone when you root.. So don't worry, it can't be worse than this
[Xperia Z1 General] play3maniac:
24

I was only asking, because i was curious about it. Thank you for the answer.

I think, at least here in Portugal, that you lose your warranty, when you unlock the bootloader, speacialy because of the DRM keys. Unrooting the phone is easy, you only have to repair phone software, since i still have my factory ROM. I already did it. Rooted, went back to stock and rooted again, the bootloader was never touched, thanks to the guys who created the Easy Root Tool.
[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:
The only way they could be 100% sure that you've rooted your device is sending it in rooted state or with unlocked bootloader.

Ways to retain warranty of the Z1

Root with locked bootloader (that was never unlocked) :

Flash any stock FTF, latest one preferably.

Unlocked bootloader:

If you want to retain warranty whilst having unlocked bootloader then you'll have to root your device and make a backup of your TA partition. If you want your warranty back:

Flash stock FTF root it - restore TA backup flash latest stock FTF again.

This way you can unlock the bootloader whilst keeping the warranty.

Unlocking the bootloader without doing a TA backup before = warranty lost forever. No other method of relocking it will get you back your warranty.

That's pretty much it. :)
[Xperia Z1 General] play3maniac:
Thanks for the help.
[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:
You're welcome, also keep in mind that in some occasions it's better to press the thanks button instead of writing it. If you ask me, then I don't mind. :)
[Xperia Z1 General] ruggyboss:

[Xperia Z1 General] play3man:
So iPhone 6 has 240fps slow mo, so i think it's time to try push framerate in Timeshift video a bit up, like.. I don't know, maybe to 240fps :D

[YOUTUBE]ifQLHHqgjJs[/YOUTUBE]

As I sad before

Mathematical maximum for Z2 (or Z1/c) is 270fps in 720p HD and 810fps in SD (640x480) or in 1080p it is 120fps.

1080p is 4x less than 4k (4k has - 8294400 pixels and 1080p has - 2073600, what is exactly 4x) = 4x30FPS = 120FPS

720p is 9x less than 4k (4k has - 8294400 pixels and 720p has - 921600, so again exactly 9x less than 4k) - 9x30FPS = 270FPS
[Xperia Z1 General] alexissa:
Ok so maybe im a little new to patching and stuff, but I cannot deodex my z1(each time I try... With different patches I get a bootloop) and if I apply the patch without deodex I get constant camera crashes... Can I do something to either deodex or stop the camera crashes?

Thanks in advance!
[Xperia Z1 General] Anonymuszymus:
so is this possible on the z1?
[Xperia Z1 General] lagalaga:
How does the camera crash? What ROM?
[Xperia Z1 General] play3man:
I don't know, really. There is enough power to do that, but i don't know if devs here are capable/know how to edit maximum of 120fps in timeshift video to different value. It would be really nice if we could record even in lower resolution with higher framerate. Like 500fps in sub-hd.

So, this question can answer only [MENTION=4300205]olokos[/MENTION] [MENTION=4386647]Riyal[/MENTION] or [MENTION=3042330]lagalaga[/MENTION] , but i think their current goal is port 4k (and maybe timeshift video), from Z3 to Z1/c.
[Xperia Z1 General] alexissa:
It says camera is not available in all black screen, stock 4.4.4 rom
[Xperia Z1 General] lagalaga:
Do you have superuser mod? Does the normal camera Work?
[Xperia Z1 General] alexissa:
Yes, xposed and super user mod, when using the camera button I always get camera not available, when I use the camera app from the drawer It takes a while to load but it loads
[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:
Yeah, z3 libs is our main goal right now in the camera porting. I'm currently a bit busy with my other projects and life so I won't be doing this YET.

Try superuser mod from my thread. You will find it in the link in my sig.
[Xperia Z1 General] play3man:
[MENTION=4300205]olokos[/MENTION] do you think that there is still chance that SteadyShot will work on Z1/c?
[Xperia Z1 General] alexissa:
[MENTION=4300205]olokos[/MENTION] so far it has worked wonders!!! If anything happens ill let you know, thanks a lot!
[Xperia Z1 General] play3man:
Hey devs, [MENTION=4300205]olokos[/MENTION] [MENTION=4386647]Riyal[/MENTION] or [MENTION=3042330]lagalaga[/MENTION]

It is possible to add bitrate option into manual mode? It would be nice to choose quality right from the camera menu, like 10mbps, 15mbps, 25mbps, 40mbps, 50mbps, 60mbps etc... Cause in manual mode is only 1080p and 720p, the same option should be added into 4k app too. I really don't know why is Sony ignoring this option..
[Xperia Z1 General] TheEndHK:
It is because the newly Apple A8 CPU supports that(the ip6 sensor should be the same with ip5s, still 8MP with 1.5um and f/2.2) but S800 I think top out at 720p@120fps.

---------- Post added at 03:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:20 PM ----------

I think the chance is yes but will need to also port the kernel, not only camera libs in /system.
[Xperia Z1 General] ruggyboss:
+1 to [MENTION=5065622]play3man[/MENTION] request, I'd love to record at higher framerates :D
[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:
There's a edit button at the bottom just before you press play button on the movie.

I don't see a point. It might also break stuff.

Not in 4K/120fps, no.
[Xperia Z1 General] play3man:
I see, cause some videos i don't need in high-quality, so about 7-15mbps would be good enough. But some videos i need in HQ, so i would just set 40mbps. But now, if i want higher quality, i need to flash moded camera, which will still record with really high bitrate and take up a lot of memory even if a do not need them like that. After all, work with HQ videos isn't easy, uploading them somewhere takes much time and editing them is even harder...
[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:
I feel your pain, but if I were to really make it happen then I'd do some xposed module or other stuff that would do it on the fly without doing further modifications to the camera apk's. I might be wrong though, but that's just my opinion on that.
[Xperia Z1 General] HarryTheHoudini:
So i've done this method on my Z1C that someone had posted

1. Root (find the Easy Root tool for Xperia devices)

2. Install Xposed Framework (available on first post), install the framework then soft reboot.

3. Install the Xperia Xposed app thing (available on first post), enable the module on Xposed, then soft reboot.

4. Open the Xperia Xposed app thing go to System, enable it and checklist the Super User Mode, reboot.

5. Download the flashable zip, extract it, and install SuperCamera.apk in the folder priv-app.

6. Reboot just in case, then voila.

It has given me the TimeShift Video but the recording is no where near as smooth as what i've seen of other peoples on youtube, to be honest it looks no different to the slow motion option in the movie editor. What have i done wrong?

Here's a video i've uploaded [YOUTUBE]uFAZPI2tlqw[/YOUTUBE]

Compared to this one someone else has done [YOUTUBE]jonUBBM2-14[/YOUTUBE]

Can anybody help with this problem i did post it in the Z1 Compact thread, sorry if this isnt the right thread for it.
[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:
Get superuser mod in a .zip form and delete serajr module that does superuser mod (or any other module that does superuser mod). I can confirm that slow camera is caused by that. I already explained why somewhere. I'd you can't find it for your device/firmware then head over to my threads and you'll find it there or you can upload your file and I'll add it to my list.
[Xperia Z1 General] lagalaga:
Use the official method posted by olokos in the dev thread. No need to deodex. Don't use incomplete instructions posted by some random guy.
[Xperia Z1 General] HarryTheHoudini:
NEWB ALERT. How do i delete it? I currently have something called Xposed Installer and Xperia Xposed and i used the Easy Root Tool. Everything else is standard on my phone KitKat 4.4.4 build 14.4.A.108.

Step 5 should be boot to recovery and flash zip. That's what I did and it all works fine for me.
[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:

[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:
I thought you meant 4k@120fps as u wrote 4k/120fps. Nevertheless I haven't tried anything more than just throwing Z3 files on my Z1. I will try it again though, just not yet cos I mentioned that I'm busy with some other stuff ATM. It's not that I'll never touch it again. It's just I'll do it later.

[Xperia Z1 General] Ryuk_Zaraki:
Olokos, it's posible 240fps in 720p? :)

[Xperia Z1 General] HarryTheHoudini:
Does installing this effect the normal camera in anyway? Since installing this my normal photo's seem to be washed out (i might be being over observant) like its reverted back to 4.4.2?
[Xperia Z1 General] olokos:
Not really. The heat would be way too big even if we manage to do it.

I can't confirm that as my back glass is broken and there's dust between my camera and back glass now, but I don't think so. It'd be nice if someone would do a side by side comparison though.
[Xperia Z1 General] play3man:
240fps in 720p should actually produce slightly less or the same heat like 4k@30fps. But i think that push framerate a bit higher is worth a try. Maybe 180fps would be good too. But at least would be good to try to do that, whether it's possible to go over 120fps.
