I never intended to start a battery message spam I was only trying to get together all the information about this google play battery drain that I have collected and because I use this rom I asked it here to be sure. I have made my research before posting I am not a noob user but I am older now to not have that much time to deep research things as before. Yeah asking without any research is bad I always support that but also if you are not sure you gotto ask too. Anyways. :)

Thanks for all the info it seems my battery drain is now stopped after disabling the recommended settings. I hope google patches this soon.

I have found an downloaded this xz kernel V25. It is nice, but the phone doesnt recognise my 64 GB microSDXC anymore!

I there a fix or sommething?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Kocane:
At no time have I experienced play services even using a percent of my battery. It must be because I don't use location services? Not with the pre-v5 version or v5 have I had any kind of unusual drain with kitkat.

i am using Samsung 64GB microSDXC card,but my phone wont not recognise after i put this kernel.

PLS could you help ne with these?!?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Kocane:
First of all - why are you posting this here? It belongs in the XzKernel thread. Secondly - there's nothing for anyone, but the developer of the kernel, to help you with. As far as I know the kernel lacks exFAT support for now but I'm positive that the dev is aware of this and will do something about it.

Carry on with that rom then Bro!! I had a problem on the initial install but you should be fine if you follow the op properly

[Xperia Z Android Development] Stupidchavs:
No bugs for me.

Wanna say great work on the rom!

Are there any features you're planning to add?

Also, survey: any recommended xposed modules?

I'm running:

Anyone else have a centering wallpaper issue?

I emptied the cache of Xperia Home, so i had 5 pages again, tried to apply a new wallpaper and no problems.

BUT, when i remove a page and apply a new wallpaper, then the wallpaper starts all the way to the left. I even checked which of the 4 pages is HOME, and it was the 3rd, so i dont understand why this happens. Even when i tap (center wallpaper in Xposed Module) it starts the wallpaper all the way on the left page.

Funny, anyone else have this problem?

5 pages > no problem with applying new wallpaper (stays centered on 3rd page of 5 in total)

remove a page (having 4 or 3, with the middle page as HOME) > wallpaper not centered to home page, but to the furthest left page.

I really like this rom but I need to solve my GPS problem. On my old rom (4.2.2) It wasnt hard to find satellites and lock on to gps position. (checking with GPS status app) It could find 8-12 or more satellites before) Now after installing existense (1.5.5) I can never lock my gps it always goes on searching and only can find a few satellites. I havent been able to get my location ever yet for these 4-5 days I have been using.

I tried different ntp servers and different gps.conf files still nothing. I have a frend with Nexus 5 which found more than 10 satelites at the same spot my phone only 1 sat. and never locked where his phone locked in like 5-6 secs.

Anyone has any idea what is wrong with my phone? Should I just return to my old nandroid backup and check if my gps is broken?

Screen always on

Installed the rom on locked bl, the only problem so far is the screen always on, regardless of settings choosen inside Display->Standby

Any workaround ?

Thanks in advance

<EDIT>

After second reboot the odd behaviour has gone.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Artyomska:
The ROM is laggy, especially in the apps drawer, and the battery drains very fast (10% in 1 hour, with stamina mode on and no usage). I did a fresh install, I updated all my apps, I don't have facebook or google+ apps installed and I use greenify. Do I need to wait for ROM to stabilize or what? I rebooted my phone six times already, but it didn't help. Also the phone overheats to 60-65 degrees celsius without opening any app. I didn't had this problems on eXistenZ v7.00. :(
[Xperia Z Android Development] AltairFriend:

No recovery

Hello,

I recently installed this ROM (1.0.0) with CWM recovery, FreeXperia10.2.

Everything went alright, but when I tried to install the 1.5.5 OTA I found out i don't have a recovery anymore. I tried installing it with fastboot flash recovery but with no luck...

writing 'recovery'... FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)

Can anyone help me?

Question

Hi,

I am new in this, so I would like to ask "maybe" something stupid.

I have stock rom - 10.5.A.0.230

Rooted via Towelroot

Installed - NUT dual recovery

Do I have to do fresh install ( i mean flash official Sony's 4.2.2 10.3.1.A.2.74 or 10.3.1.A.2.67 with flashtool and Root using DoomLord method) or i can just reboot in recovery, wipe Data, Cache and Dalvik Cache and flash the rom.?

Many thanks
[Xperia Z Android Development] timchew:
Just flash the rom and reboot.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Sargos76:
Better to do all wipes including factory reset and install zip, follow aroma installer and then reboot

P. S : Don't forget to do a backup of your data first

Sony Xperia Z / C6603 LTE / Root/LB via Tapatalk
[Xperia Z Android Development] gjleonardo:
Thanks! how did you transfer? /system/etc is a read only directory :(
[Xperia Z Android Development] Aresmar:
First of all make a backup of original one. Than use a root operation capable file manager app like ES file explorer or FX file explorer or total commander etc...

Then activate root operation in the file manager if necessary than "mount r/w" and replace the new file over. Lastly set permissions of the file: "rw r- r-" or (644 in numeric code.)
[Xperia Z Android Development] gjleonardo:
Massive thanks, ES file explorer dont have the option to remount, hence I used total commander. By the way, it works now after copying your gps.conf file then reboot.

This should be added in the next release :(

lost wcdma connection

After last update, I can't connect to wcdma network anymore. I tried to insert my simcard to other phones ( I tried with 2 devices) and it can has H and or H+ signal. But when I switch back to my xz, It always lost signal after I chance mobile network to wcdma only, wcdma ( prefered)/gsm or LTE (prefered/wcdma/gsm). So, practically, I can connect to 2G network only.

I also cannot use *#*#4636#*#*. It always show error or force close.

I did wipe cache and dalvik cache but no luck. and always do fresh/clean install.

What should I do? :confused:

[Xperia Z Android Development] visualfighter:
still no luck. It wont connect to 3g network even I register the provider network manually. Always reconnect to 2g. Seems like it wont switch automatically when there is no coverage or failed to connect to 3g network. So when I push to connect with wcdma( prefered)/gsm mode, there is no signal at all. It only has signal if I use 2g only mode.

I think I'm gonna do factory reset :D

...or not :laugh: . I'll wait to next update of this rom and do clean install again

Thanx for the reply.
