I also hope your useless feedback is also fixed in future versions.

I am filling in VOLUNTARILY for bagyusz until he is back, not my duty ... and people askedme to port 4.4.3.

Stay away from this development threads if u are allergic to bugs.
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Thanks, The sources are UNMODIFIED. Its something to do with releasetools maybe

The only change i do is delete the line:

TARGET_RELEASETOOLS_etcetc..... Could it be the reason?
[Xperia SP Android Development] Treboeth:
Thanks given for [MENTION=4350492]neXus PRIME[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5579865]MrSteve555[/MENTION], appreciate the efforts.

Would love an update on LBL Slimkat if possible:)
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
[MENTION=4350492]neXus PRIME[/MENTION]

If you didn't touch the dev trees, CM sources, and you only modified releasetools, I'd suspect the root of the problem there.
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
But it has nothing related to baseband... i searched and lot of threads tagged cm11 unknown baseband many xperia phones too. There is a fix floating around. Please help me search it.

Flashing LBL Cm11 via Twrp and Philz gave me no baseband only via Cwm did it work.

But I had no WiFi Hotspot on any.
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Which CWM made it work??? I can fix hotspot but need to know the CWM version.
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Same baseband issue here too:

This is the one I used but may have caused confusion I meant this rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2735975
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
I found that:

There is a fix in the first post, maybe it will be helpful.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2762703

Also, we should have in mind that the ramdisk changes when the Android build changes, and running new build on kernel/ramdisk can lead to weird issues. Maybe not in our case but worth checking.

I know the releasetools aren't connected to baseband but it's the only thing that was changed by you.

Also, flashing basebands after flashing the ROM doesn't do anything, it still stays unknown. So the issue really goes deeper than the baseband.

One thing to note: When FXP320 was released, the ramdisk was broken and baseband wasn't working, but flashing kernel from FXP319 fixed the issue. But when someone combined FXP320 kernel and FXP319 ramdisk, everything also worked fine
[Xperia SP Android Development] peters.:
Its not stated in the non-working section, therefore I'm asking...
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
How do you know its not working here?

FXP uses cm modified ramdisk.

We are using stock kernel and many of the init files are from stock rom. All sensors should work fine.

Have a conclusive test and i'll add it to non-working list.
[Xperia SP Android Development] peters.:
Anybody willing to make a quick test: record video and cover front mic with finger. If there is silence (or very very silent voice), back mic doesn't work.
[Xperia SP Android Development] MK99:
Yes, back mic doesn't work.
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Ok, good. Back MIC added to non-working list. and i wont try n fix it until after PA is here.
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
[MENTION=4350492]neXus PRIME[/MENTION]

The microphone issue is there from 10.2 LBL builds. Bagyusz "fixed" it, but it still doesn't work...

Anyway, I've opened another pull request with some random fixes.
[Xperia SP Android Development] J0kker:
I'll try this one, but just because i'm a fan of your nexus navbarz :highfive:

I'll probably encounter the same issue as every other CM rom, as my ISP router (freebox) isn't able to use WPA2, i won't be able to connect to wifi.

But i'll try and see.

Btw, a little question, a little off topic, but maybe you could answer me, mahdi and slimkat don't have this issue with WPA connections, don't they use same wlan drivers as CM ?

I've always wondered why CM devs don't care about that issue... i know most of us use wpa2 but for those who simply can't, that's a big problem :-/

I'll be back soon to report my experience :p

Error statut 7

Hi,

I tried to install the build 4 over the build 3 and had "error staut 7", bootloop and lose the cwm, so impossible to restore or anything else. Can't flash the firmware to have a phone and restart everything because I can't install flashmode drivers on the office computer!!! Damn sh*t!!

So I think that i'll spend all the day long without phone...
[Xperia SP Android Development] Oblox:
Great work again Nexus and Mr Steve, is it possible to update the ROM (and future ones such as PA) to include TWRP? I was testing out 205 ROM and then flashed latest build in CWM touch and it lost baseband. Is a pain to have to flash other recovery and go through that process to restore it.

No problem if not would be a nice to have.
[Xperia SP Android Development] sanjayatlive:
I've been using CM 11 LBL. Can I flash nexusCM 11 build 4 over it? Or should I perform a full wipe before flashing?
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
I personally will try adding TWRP, because it isn't convinient to flash recoveries and reboot to flash the ROM. I will try to release it here(it will be untested, because I'm away from home and I don't have a PC here on case I screw something up) today or tomorrow.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Oblox:
I can test today or tomorrow if you need a tester.
[Xperia SP Android Development] J0kker:
So, after testing, wifi works... maybe because i flashed .205 tft for locked bootloader ? (even though i'm unlocked)

Anyway, the rom is working flawlessly after a reboot.

The only thing i miss in CM11 (compared to mahdi or slimkat) is the ability to define shortcuts for long press on navbar buttons (it's awesome with darker or screenfilter when playing games at night hehe) and the dark mode (i love the phone and sms apps dark styles).

I wish there would be a slimkat version of your work.

Anyway, thank you for this rom, it's kind of you to keep up to date since bagyusz has some trouble with his laptop ^^

:good:

Edit: After downloading and installing Dark Holo Theme for CM11, i'm pretty satisfied =)

I'll keep this rom for the next days, even if i'm lacking the long-press navbar buttons feature :)
[Xperia SP Android Development] Valaran:
You can set up a "kill app" on long press in developer parameters.

https://mega.co.nz/#!mMRFlB6S!u-WBfwzGLT5abmcVz06S3H-5qvrbObpW8uiDQmHZ6og

As I said earlier, untested.

Push to /system/bin.

Oh, and you can enter TWRP by pressing camera button.
[Xperia SP Android Development] J0kker:
Yep, i know that, and it's one of the first things i do when performing a clean install =)

What i miss is this ability for other navbar buttons, like home longpress => recent apps.

But i can live without that :)
[Xperia SP Android Development] Oblox:
[MENTION=5579865]MrSteve555[/MENTION] Ive pushed with ADB to system/bin and set permissions, when I reboot it goes past sony logo (no lights whatsoever) then hits boot animation then just freezes and fades out before rebooting.

Restoring my phone to 4.3 then will restore nandroid if you need me to test something else in a while.
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Guys, status 7 error comes in CWM when you manually mount system before flashing a zip. DON'T DO THAT.

Just let recovery mount system during zip install.

Secondly, due to the nature of locked boot loader, I CLEARLY STATED USE LATEST LBL RECOVERIES. So they work first time without error.

Lastly, don't install during office time... And to avoid stupid mistakes, I told to WIPE COMPLETE SYSTEM TO BE SAFE before install.

lastly,
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
why would you do this at office. and use philz from now on. ok???
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
merged... why removed camera hack???
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
ok. but no promises. mrsteve555 will help me with it.
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
as always, your choice. should work, but be safe and wipe.
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Build # 4 is as good as it gets... I'll look into the Hotspot and 2nd mic bug during paranoid android and later merge here if it works..

Need suggestion, shall I lock this thread until return and open a general for discussion or keep this open???
[Xperia SP Android Development] Oblox:
Just make a big red text post at the top of the 1st post saying this is as good as it gets for now and leave it open for now.
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
Because it's not needed anymore. That commit was for cleanup purposes.
[Xperia SP Android Development] J0kker:
Just tried and ended in bootloops too.

<off topic>

Btw, i've always encountered lil "touch troubles" with twrp, sometimes (not to say often) twrp takes me back when "clicking" somewhere, like i clicked the back button.

Is this the same for every body ?

I used this recovery for previous phones (atrix 4g and xperia X8 mini) and i didn't have this issue.

</off topic>
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Mrsteve555, let me have a look at your TWRP zip... Maybe something is missing
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
[MENTION=5579865]MrSteve555[/MENTION] , the hijack tar with TWRP you made was wrong. It would not work

"busybox cpio -i /temp/recovery.tar"

but there is no file named recovery.tar. Its twrp.cpio.gz and then inside ANOTHER zip twrp.cpio....

@ all...

Try below zip fixed with TWRP... it should make twrp boot on camera key press. But let me know if it doesn't.

https://mega.co.nz/#!m9IRlK7J!zBBSGVGfJ8Mc8i8f2qq4eGAV2jqTqRo6h0BD5UCaick

Push to /system/bin

and set permission as the old file.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Oblox:
Just making a nandroid then will test.
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
I really wrote that line? I thought I wrote twrp.cpio.gz, which should work. .cpio.gz files extracted with cpio will work fine. Also, there is a file recovery.tar, but it's just CWM.
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Yep, u wrote recovery.tar instead of twrp.cpio.gz. Maybe that is the only typo which, if corrected, would have made it work.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Oblox:
Still bootloops for me.
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Then forget it people. Instead, go to the thread which has these 3 recoveries and use that if you want...

Anyhow, who told me ParanoidAndroid github is github/AOSPA.... that person shall burn with the flames of thousand sunz:(:(:(....

Its github/AOSPA-legacy

You have wasted 20GB download on a CRAPPY SLOW internet:(:(. and now i have to waste ANOTHER day downloading.

DIE B*TCH... ;p:highfive:
[Xperia SP Android Development] Oblox:
Cant use the three recoveries on these roms or id have done that. Thanks for trying anyway guys.

4.4.3 PA was at RC2 stage i believe as of this morning when I read flipboard. So then you'll have another big download :p
[Xperia SP Android Development] J0kker:
+1.

I tried both [CWM][LB][4.3]Philz, CWM Touch and TWRP for Xperia SP LB [2014-06-16] and [DEVDB][TWRP][PhilZ Touch][CWM] XZDualRecovery 2.7.1XX RC and they both result in a bootloop... :cyclops:

Sorry to hear about the wrong 20GB, let's keep the faith ! :silly:
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
I have an idea about the recoveries(just a temporary thing(or not if you like it)):

We could make modular script: in hijack.tar there would only be ramdisk, and in hijack.sh we could add some code which would execute "recovery.sh" on power button press, so it would look like this:

1. No key pressed -> boot into OS

2. Power button pressed -> option to choose vol +, - or camera button -> camera button - CWM Touch, vol + - PhilZ, vol - - TWRP.
[Xperia SP Android Development] bushladen:
Just because I thought it was easy and without any issues... I was wrong. I'll never do that again SIR!! SORRY SIR!!! ;)

I've just tried to install the build 4 by Philz and "statut 7" again... The weird thing is that i success to install the build 3 but going from the 3 to the 4 brings me a "statut7" (weird for me maybe not for you...)

I follow steps by steps the instructions but no way... Can you post us the link for a LBL recovery plz, we can find so much of different recovery...

Thank a lot!

Great work!!! even if i face some troubles...
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Use recovery which is included in Build # 3. But use Philz. Volume Up key.

Then just flash build # 4 zip. No wipes, no mount anything, no nothing. Just go to zip flash.

[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
I was wondering today that how come when it comes to petitions and news n stuff, there are hundreds of people clamouring shouting moaning and cursing SONY to give this, give that etc etc.

I was one of those who was satisfied with 4.1 FW, then 4.3 FW, and when i heard bagyusz 10.2 cm, i was ecstatic because having a LOCKED BL for life meant i had to accept whatever came towards me. Can't be too greedy.

But now when 4.4.3 cm, cm11, slimkat, etc etc are available for all, there is subdued atmosphere. No, i am not talking about few posts in threads of these ROMs. I am talking about FEW downloads of these roms.

XSP is sony midranger, just like desire x was of HTCs. When i was on that set, since 2012 february, TILL NOW !!!! there has not been a SINGLE AOSP daily driver capable rom for that set. It like those people (including me at that time) are cursed never to have cm. And still the forum members there trying desperately to make something work but not having any knowledge of development.

And then i see this place. Unhappy with minor bugs. constant complaining for battery life. never getting satisfied with anything. And all of this arrogance on a midranger phone (in terms of price).

My posts is not specifically related to context of this thread, but i do wanted to share my thoughts since a long time. People should be more thankful for what they have. Some lesson in humility. Thats all. Rant over.
[Xperia SP Android Development] air001:
For some people nothing ever is good enough. These roms didn't made for them.

They just only can crying always something instead of using the phone. They always be unsatisfied. You don't have to care about them.

I'm going to install your rom this morning in office time! :D Because I've spare phone for installing time, and I can install anything on my office computer. :o

[MENTION=5579865]MrSteve555[/MENTION]

Review thee commits which i have made to PA branch. apart from pa-specific stuff, i have added optimizations from CM huashan tree as well.

Also, I am going to retry FM radio port from cm10.2... Lets hope it works, otherwise we'll leave it dead.
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
The commits are looking fine, but if I remember correctly, there are more pa-specific things to add in dev trees like pa.adds and pa.removes. Idk if it's still used in PA4, but on PA3 it was in use. I don't think the radio will be ever working, but it's good to try :).
[Xperia SP Android Development] Valaran:
you're so right ! I'm an active forum user of the french frandroid forum and all you say is sooooo true ! But i'm coming from a galaxy nexus and i'm a little disapointed on how this phone works. I'm thankful regarding baguysz and your work, which just make my phone usable again.

Thanks again and keep up the (good) work !!

Build #4 runs smooth, no issue so far excepted wifi access point.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Oblox:
I agree with your sentiment Nexus but it tends to be the way with forums and anywhere on the internet, if people are happy they dont post. If they want something or are unhappy they post in abundance.

4.1.2 was fine, 4.3 was frankly terrible in 266, not much better in 201 but existenz made it bearable, I was really happy when CM appeared because like you I thought i was stuck to live with what Sony gave us. I think I tried every single one of his ROMS AOKP, PAC-man, SlimBean and CM 10.2 and the same with the Kitkat builds. Ive also tried out 205 and Sony have done a really nice job on it finally and its a good usable version but having CM11 just offers so much more.

So thanks again for the work from Bagyusz, Kieran, Harold, you and Mr Steve for getting us decent working versions of LBL ROMs. It really is appreciated.

To be honest the 4.4.3 version is going to be the one to watch as it brings Hover and CM theme engine to PA. Its at RC2 stage currently so hopefully not too long.

Good to have this initial one though to get any bugs fixed and see what its like generally though.

Anyone have yellow screen and restart?

Happened me once. For 2 sec the screen turned yellow than my phone restarted automatically.

I read that other users complained for it on other ROMs. Even stock ROM can cause this so I think this is a .205 kernel problem. (bug)

[Xperia SP Android Development] Raz9:
Flashed the audio fix with Phils.

In call I cannot hear anything and the caller cannot hear anything too.
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
You did something wrong. I and other people tested it and calling/Google Now/audio playback/video recording works just fine.
[Xperia SP Android Development] spicx212:
So this fix increases volume ? Or just when phone calls ? Brczuse the volume on this ROM is waay to low :(
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
It increases volume of speaker and earpiece(because some people are too lazy to use v4a), increases gain of rear mic and front mic and disables rear mic for voice calling and enables it only for recording.

Btw, the volume is like stock without xLoud. It's not "waay too low".
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Yes, this is original patch by Steve. It will be fine.
[Xperia SP Android Development] igor_anta:
Sorry to bother, I just had one thing on my mind concerning the rear mic. Isn't the rear mic used in calls for noise canceling and such?
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
I think it isn't used for such things, even on stock. Even Qualcomm fluence is disabled in build.prop, and I don't think Sony would make own implementation of it. Even logs are saying that only one mic is used.
[Xperia SP Android Development] MetalOllie:
Doesn't Viper only affect speaker sound for media files rather than in-call? I've been using it for some time and never noticed any effect on the audio relative to speakerphone calls, or in-ear for that matter. It certainly affects things like ringtones, but I don't think it does anything to calls?
[Xperia SP Android Development] muloarell:
how to change Lte to 3g signal cant find it in settings/ more?

thanks to this rom:)
[Xperia SP Android Development] MK99:
It killed all mics. Even the call-mic doesn't work anymore.

Have to go back.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Raz9:
MK99: That's what I said but nobody believe it.
[Xperia SP Android Development] spicx212:
How do you go back ? :(
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
Okay, to everyone who is using the audio fix: I need more feedback about this.

For now it's 4 people who say it's working and 2 people who say it's not working.

Could someone say a little bit more about that?
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Everyone believes everyone people. But we are speaking custom ROMs with custom features. We are not professional devs. Bugs are bound to happen.

AND

You go back by installing Build # 8 Zip over Build # 9 without wiping anything. Simple.

Please cooperate with us, with better reports, comparisons and facts. Saying this doesnt work is not very useful.
[Xperia SP Android Development] MK99:
I just flashed this zip via PhilZ from sd-card, reboot and tried to call several different phones. They did not hear me.

What you need to know? ;) Can test some more?

EDIT: Manually move that file to right path. Now rear mic works, google search works but calling does not.
