Very bad news guys, my Xperia Z is dead :(

He doesn't wake up since yesterday, the battery is dead I guess. I have of course try everything ;)

I will send it to service center but it will take few weeks until (I hope) I receive a new or fixed phone.

Until that I can't do testing of news things who were supposed to come with eXistenZ Ultimate 2.0.0

So all is delayed until further notice.

Cheers

very quick question

I'm coming from PureXZ custom rom that is already .230 kitkat, and i really wanted to try this rom out.. do i still need flash official Sony's 4.2.2 10.3.1.A.2.74 or 10.3.1.A.2.67 with flashtool for a fresh installation or can i just flash the existenz rom through recovery? Thanks in advance

SOLVED

I'm not able to boot the ROM.

I'm coming from AOSP based ROMs.

I install and reboot but get stuck after the Sony logo, just a black screen after that.

Installation logs show 'symlink:some symlinks failed'.

EDIT: I enabled zip signature verification on TWRP and now I get signature verification failed, does this mean it is a corrupt download ?

Changed Recovery from TWRP to CWM and now it boots :good:

Coming from a HTC device so I'm unfamiliar with how Xperia Z works in terms of flashing a custom ROM. My Xperia is running 4.4.2 and rooted. I'm planning on backing up the TA partition after which I will unlock its boot loader and flash the dualrecovery. But once all this is done, can I flash this ROM or do I have to downgrade to 4.2.2 first?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Rajeev:
If u have root and cwm recovery installed in ur 4.4.2 means no need to downgrade . Just flash this rom as per the instructions...

From My Xperia Z With XDA App
[Xperia Z Android Development] kingvortex:
I will also add to Rajeev's reply above that you do not need to unlock your bootloader to install the dual recovery or use this rom.
[Xperia Z Android Development] DaRk MaDnEsS:
look the simplest answer is as long you have a recovery you can flash this Rom from whatever Rom you are on :D

and just a small tip (you don't need to unlock the boot loader to use this rom since is based on Stock Sony Android) you need only recovery.

Edit:eek:pps didn't see that there is a reply sorry :(
[Xperia Z Android Development] Bread123:
I have locked bootloader stock kitkat rooted if i have dual recovery can i flash it too without downgrade to 4.2.2 will works on locked bootloader??

This thread is reaching high pages of the same questions.

I'm not a moderate or anything but PLEASE people, do some reading and research before asking a question.

Some tips.

If your going flash this build

Read the threads first then Follow OP

After initial flash, update to ota

Then do your testing if bug's found (besides ones that has already been posted)

Then post a question

I really would like this thread to stay clean for everyone.

All aside, I understand everyone wants to know how to's, before they alter their phones but please do some reading first. I am not trying to be mean so I'm sorry if I come off that way. Please understand.

Does anyone else have problems playing Plague Inc on this ROM? Every time I open the game it shows me the opening screen for 5 seconds, then it is force closing.(Unfortunately, Plague Inc has stopped). I tried older versions of the game, but it's the same problem. I made a hard reset to my phone, reinstalled the game, reinstalled the ROM, cleared all the caches (dalvik, app one), restarted, but to no result. On Existenz 7.0 and SpikeLabs XZ Performance Edition V3 the game worked without problem, so I think it's a ROM problem. I am on version 1.5.5 right now.

Battery and "overheating"

Hello everyone,

After using this ROM for a while , i have noticed that (comparing to eXistenZ v6... )the battery life is not that good. Of course , maybe not all of you experienced the same thing , but.. First of all "Google Services" (and apps) are the main "eaters". I know that when KK official update for Xperia Z was released, users complained about battery life; Then Sony said they are waiting for some updates from Google for their apps and after that everything should be fine .

My question here .... Is there any way to fix this issue or we are still waiting on Google's updates?

Camera -- using the camera in any of it's modes is eating a lot of my battery.

Any fixes for this?

I am asking this because tomorrow i'm going in a vacation for a few days and using navigation and camera alot , i don't know how long it will last (even if when i'm in car i'll keep it plugged in).

And the last thing i have noticed is that when i use any app , my phone is getting very very hot, even when using apps like WhatsApp.
[Xperia Z Android Development] poopypoo13:
[QUOTEgabriel.bucur[/QUOTE]

Some tips I did for like 24 hours to get the battery drain to stop

Turn location off

Freeze Google services

Turn auto sync off

I did those for like 24 hours and it worked for me.

Plus there's more ways you can fix it too. Just Google it. I'm just lucky I think.

As of now, all those settings are turned on and I have no battery drain.

For the heat, well I haven't figured out how to stop that but I think it's okay because Xperia models have a built in cooling setting. So even if your phone gets really hot. You should be okay, I might be wrong tho. =P
[Xperia Z Android Development] gabriel.bucur:
Thanks, it's a bit late now to turn off all those , at 4AM i'm going to need navigation so ... i guess i'll pray at my car charger to work at it's best for the next 3 days.

The heathing thing it's more unconfortable than a serious problem ...i mean ..put an extremely hot phone in your pocket ...now that's summer ...it will be perfect during the winter though :))))

LE : I can't find " Location based WiFi" setting. I'm blind or this option is not available in this Rom version?

LE2 : How bad "Device Only" Location mode will affect the accuracy of a navigation app (i use Sygic) comparing to other modes??
[Xperia Z Android Development] poopypoo13:
I used device only once and it was slow. If u have the patience to wait for it.

Try just turning the sync stuff off and if u have TB, freeze Google services for now. But keep the location stuff on, since u need it.

I hope the best for u. =)
[Xperia Z Android Development] Chronic2k13:
I think you guys are off topic here!! There are other posts for battery drain issues!!
[Xperia Z Android Development] langeveld024:
Think you missed my reply, I was very fast ghehe :p
[Xperia Z Android Development] gabriel.bucur:
since my questions are related to THIS rom I don't see any inconvenient . Maybe another users did not faced the same issues, maybe is a thing that is well known by the developers and for now this is the way the rom works normally. Maybe there are particular ways to fix those things because every rom is built in a different way by different people.

Thank you for your understanding :) .
