1. Download terminal emulator from playstore.

2. Go to build.prop adjust your dpi to 370.

3. Type su in terminal emulator.

4. Type wm size 720x1280.

5. Reboot.

That's all. :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] MafiaManV:
Yeah you can. Just use NOMone resolution changer from play store ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] imm1304:
Thanks.. I tried this app because I thought it would be easier. But, launching this app causes the phone to reboot. Will try terminal emulator now.

This worked. Thanks! :)

370 dpi was still too big.. I changed it to 320 now. And I am tempted to try 280 like you had posted earlier. :good:

[Xperia Z Android Development] shorinryu:
I have seen in other forums where people have just flashed the newer kernel from. 292 firmware on the 283 installation. Maybe that is all you need as Niaboc said there are no features or official changes to the rom itself.
[Xperia Z Android Development] niaboc79:
I will take a look ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] benzcomp:
I do not know why, from the beginning of 233 ROM version, set the default application can not be saved, and had flash official ROM, is the same problem, niaboc79 can fix this problem?

I just got a chromecast and was wondering if anyone else got screen mirroring to work using the mirroring enabling app found here: http://xdaforums.com/hardware-hacking/chromecast/experimental-enable-mirroring-device-t2812193

It lists Xperia Z as a working device but I do not see the screen mirroring option in the chromecast app which is there on my nexus 7.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Trehjulingsleffe:
I can see the option screen mirroring, but the mirroring doesn't work anyway. Try out some different options in the screen mirroring appm remember to reboot every time you change some settings.

Hi all,

I have flashed a fair number of phones and roms now for work and hobby.

I ran existenz v1 and ultra xz black etc all were great, my little boy nuked (microwaved) my xperia but I just got it back from insurers, trying to run up[ this rom but I have twice flashed and ended up with just a black screen after the sony logo. I left the phone booting for ages but it never went further than the black screen after sony logo, I tried 3 times now.

I brought phone up to .283

flashed .230 ftf

rooted with towel root

flashed .283 to get back wifi

market installed supersu

installed dual recovery

booted to recovery factory reset

flashed rom

Any thoughts anyone?

**UPDATE**

Working now, I flashed again using philz touch instead of TWRP, also didn't bring stock up to date think I based on .101 in the end.

Thanks all, time to go customise!

Thanks so much for your awesomeness in creating this rom. I trully appreciate how easy the whole process was to install this rom especially after the hours i spent to root (thanks to Doomlord) my tmobile sony xperia z phone. I had TWRP recovery installed and had tried to install CM11 nightly yuga but i kept getting errors and i just couldnt get my bootloader to unlock, so i am so greatful to find this rom here. I hope you make a rom based of Android 5.0 lollipop for the sony xperia Z. I am definitely going to donate to you some money soon if later after i get my tax refund, i am kinda broke from all the christmas shoping. Again thank you niaboc79, i feel like a brand new enthusiastic adroid addict trying out new roms all over again.

4) i am getting fc for google chrome browser..not sure why..did uninstall clear cache still i do get fc..what happens is whenever i open google chrome and type in browser sometimes it stucks and gets stuck for 5-10secs and then fc..not sure why..i think its not related to rom but if it is..what to do..so posting it here..as i am unsure..

Plz help me fix this probs thank you so much in advance..
[Xperia Z Android Development] dream2poet:

I have been facing this problem also, it's in the STOCK ROM as well

this because the version 4.4 is too much heavy (for XZ) I think !

At first boot it was ok but after some days it becomes slow and lags >.<

this problem can be solved by downgrade to 4.3 :p

Did the procedure change from existing v. 7.0.0?
[Xperia Z Android Development] androidfreak70:
Hi!!!!

Just want to ask you before i flash XZ kernel 24 :D

Do i need to wipe data or just dalvik and cache or nothing???

Please answer me fast!! I cant wait to flash i i see now!!!

Edit: i dont want it anymore....

I never flashed any kernel before.....

This is first time i flash kernel and its also the last time i do it...

But thank god the thing that i was fear didnt happened (hard-brick)

Got 3 kinds of soft-bricks when i flashed this kernel

First one : the phone turned off and the screen didnt lighted only i got is RED led blinking that was maked me feel i was near the hard brick...

Second one : after the device connected to flashmode. The flashtool is failed to flash the ftf for some reason. Then i got the SONY screen then nothing

Third one : after i successed to flash the ftf i got the bootanimation the nothing... That maked me happy little because the phone worked!

Then i finally finished flashing the ftf

So fast i rooted - installed dual recovery - installed this rom - restored my data backup from TWRP :D

Every time i do untrusted thing i got a loop made from scares from the hardbrick then i back to the thing that i was before before i do my mistake :D

flashed the rom some days ago and everything is working fine! :good:

But my volume slider (using the volume rockers) is not the advanced one which is shown on niaboc79 image (see below)... (Where you can enter the extended view with media volume etc.)

does anybody know, where I could activate / add this feature? Is there an Xposed module? :confused:

[Xperia Z Android Development] agha_jo0n:
hi

do not scare bro!

it does not need any wipe

just put it on your sd card and flash it through twrp or cwm ! but in installation Process use xperia advance recovery ! (this will be uninstall dual recovery)( if you do not use is you may have wifi problem same as me and you must revert to stock)

if you get sony screan if you can go to recovery revert to stock kernel the problem will be solved

if you could not go to revocery just flash stock kernel through fast mode or flash mode this can solved your problem too!

i scared too but if you want enjoy your xz do this!

i go to Border of soft brick too because after this kernel flash several times(because of using xzdual recovery in aroma installer) i see the sony logo but after this nothing just light of screan!!

i power off the phone with power + vol up and then power on the phone and from there i go to recovery and flashed it with xperia advance recovery and all my problems was solved!

i offer you to flash this kernel ! the possibility of hard brick is very low!

but it have the value of RISK!

Moreover after flashing this kernel my battery charges faster !

I have a micro USB to HDMI harness that connects to a HDMI cable that connects to my televisions HDMI input. For audio, it should normally play through your television set.

Since your stuck in boot loop your going to have to restore your phone. Download Sony PC Companion and go through the restore process. Here's a link that can help you through your restoration process. This should restore your phone to factory settings as well.

[Xperia Z Android Development] B8shT1m3:
Android would close the app if your RAM is too low, so the app uses this trick to stay active all the time.

It's propably your launcher or a batterie/performance tool.

Look in the settings of your launcher. Sometimes they have the option to disable it if you have root.
[Xperia Z Android Development] junkerss:
Thank you for your answer :)

I have tried different launchers; nova, dodol, go launcher etc. But the dot is always there :D

Can it be the performance control tool?
[Xperia Z Android Development] kevindeoz:
I have this dot after the device enters on fullscreen mode -not immersive- (with an app in notification bar of course)

I think is something normal of Android system :p
[Xperia Z Android Development] Hider141:
Hello fellow shipmates! It seems I've ran into some problems with my Xperia Z and I have to resort to your experience.

I don't know if it has got something to do with the current ROM (eXistenZ Ultimate 3.0), or with the SuperSU binary, but ever since the last update of the SuperSU binary I've been getting force stops from

com.android.phone
com.android.systemui.com

everytime I restart the device, or even when trying to send an sms or make a phonecall. I thought that maybe a reinstall of the ROM will fix this because from what I've seen the install process formats the system partition and reinstalls the system apps, but it didn't.

So I want to ask you what should be the next step. Do I need to follow niaboc's instructions for a fresh install, or there's a simpler way to fix this?
[Xperia Z Android Development] gamzekal:
Yesterday i have installed this rom on my new Xperia Z.It is awesome rom.Keep going bro.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Metallijim:
It's called lights out. Replicated easily by going on to a picture in album app and tapping to make a picture fullscreen then again to make it go to lights out.

And yes, it's part of the system UI and can be edited, themes or decompiling. ?
