Casper_windy (xperia z2 tablet WiFi), touchscreen fix hasnt been released yet...

Hi,

I probably missed something, but exactly where do I get the boot.img from for first time install?

Roy
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] bacon612:
You don't need it. Just flash the zip in the download link in recovery. There are touchscreen issues after sleep with the build however, so I would nandroid your present config if you would like to revert.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] fleckdalm:
So a unlocked bootloader isn't required if I have root and recovery?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] kbroh:
Bootloader/Recovery

If you have root and a recovery installed on the xperia z2 tablet, then you have your bootloader unlocked already.

Root just gives you higher privileges in the running state. To install lets say Clockworkmod recovery, you need write access to the boot partition, which comes only with an unlocked bootloader.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] michalst:
I´m not sure, but my LTE Tablet have Dual Recovery installed and rooted as well.. But still locked Bootloader. I need to unlock them to be able install any custom ROM.

For now i´m on Sony Stock ROM.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] kbroh:
I stand corrected, your tablet can have a locked bootloader with XZDualRecovery and root. Sorry for that...

You can install a custom ROM however make sure you create a backup of /system/bin/chargemon in a location you know it keep secure, then just flash the locked dual recovery beta zip.

I had xzdualrecovery on my xperia z2 tablet with a locked bootloader but it would not stick when I tried backing up or flashing a custom ROM. I went ahead and unlocked the bootloader and installed a CWM recovery in order to avoid loosing a recovery because of bootloader errors/bugs.

[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] bacon612:
Thanks for doing the work. Its really appreciated. Any word on the battery drain? Its pretty bad. Is it kernel related?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Kali-:
odd, battery was not bad at all (if u dont hit the camera bugs)

plz try upcoming nightlies and report back
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] kbroh:
My full apologies! Rcstar6696's forum on the Casper_windy announced the fix yesterday. I was not aware of the fix earlier than that. Anyways thank you and anyone else involved. Didn't mean to not give credit where credit is due!

BTW battery drain is apparent, looking forward to the night lies.

Thanks!
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] bacon612:
Will the nightlies show up in cm updater? I will definitely test and report back

Thanks again everyone, downloading to test now!

I have grabbed the experimental build from get.cm

All working spot on so far (castor_windy)
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] coreo:
Just about everything works well in this one.. camera is now ok for pictures and video. Having a few issues....occasionally keyboaard double types some letters but is heaps better than stock(I've tried a few different ones,thumb keyboard seems to be the best for me...particularly the "a" key double types weired) and the battery is still screwy, i think it last longer but it takes ages to charge(still need to test longer)..overall heaps better than stock. Sony really need to pull there finger out!

Thanks everyone good job so far:good::good:

[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] timscha:
Yep. New nightly working really nice on castor. :) I only miss nfc. :angel:
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] thomholwerda:
The new nightly is great, but I do wonder why the 3G stuff is still visible on castor_windy. Does everyone have that problem?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Kali-:
this is odd, u picked the castor_windy zip ?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] thomholwerda:
Yeah I did (and just double-checked in "About tablet"). Before I continue pestering with questions and waste your time, I'll do a full-wipe+reinstall - just to be sure!

---------- Post added at 04:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:45 PM ----------

So yeah did a full wipe and reinstall, with the proper zip, and it still contains all the 3G stuff. During initial setup, it even asks me to refer to my tablet's manual for proper SIM installation (because it obviously doesn't find one).
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] pupy991:
The same happens on my castor_windy (fresh install with double-checked proper ZIP). Additionally Android OS is sucking battery that hard, that even if my tablet is connected to the charger, the battery percentage is still decreasing slowly while reading some pdfs or stuff like that. Even if I lock the screen, charging takes ages and tablet never sleeps because of Android OS.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] coreo:
yes charging is really slow if at all not shaw its actually going up or not i'm using my dock charger and it's just holding at 27% for like 2 and 1/2 hours.. bit worried I wont beable to fully charge it.. anyway going to turn of wifi and leave it over night see how it goes...
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] kbroh:
Same here. Castor_windy. Full wipe and flash, still has the 4g data.

Battery is being drained faster than normal as well. Putting it on airplane mode with WiFi on helps however.

no other bugs so far
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] coreo:
I've gone back to stock to charge it, for the minute.. left it over night and only gained about 25% charge..
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] vyruz1986:
Could someone clarify which device is 'castor' and which is 'castor_windy'?

I tried flashing official CM11 experimental & nightlies after CM's announcement yesterday on G+, in which they said 'castor_windy' is the Wifi only version, but were corrected in the comments afterwards.

According to what I'm reading here, 'castor_windy' is also wifi-only version, but I think it's wrong, no?

I have a SGP-511 (16GB Wifi only), and when I try to flash the official CM11 'castor_windy' nightly (link) I get an error in TWRP saying I have a 'castor' device and am trying to flash the wrong rom ('castor_windy' one).

Anyway I tried flashing the castor build, but it softbricks my Z2 tab, I get a short vibration when I try to power it up, but screen stays black. The only solution to recover from this (as far as I've found) is full restore of factory image using flashtool.

What about the boot.img? I suppose I can only flash this with an unlocked bootloader, which I don't have, I have rooted my device using towelroot and installed XZDualRecovery from this thread.

Is the boot.img from CM11 needed or not? If yes I'll have to unlock my bootloader, which will delete my DRM keys, which I have backed up when I rooted my device, but I don't know whether I can restore them afterwards.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Kali-:
TWRP is wrong

51x is castor_windy - Wifi only

52x is castor - LTE
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] thethorgrin:
In addition to the 3G stuff, I can confirm the battery drain issue: https://www.dropbox.com/s/7sesr9sd7xitdcb/2014-07-13 10.42.53.png

Also, the seems to be a problem with user profiles. On the 2nd profile, I cannot install apps correctly.

The installation itself works, but no icon appears under apps (auto shortcut to homescren works, though). I can launch them via play store, but they don't seem to interact with android correctly.

Let me explain: When I install swiftkey, the wizard takes me to the input settings, where I'm supposed to enable swiftkey. But there is no swiftkey, only the default keyboard.

Same with gmail. I can install it, but unter accounts/google there is no option to sync gmail, so I never get to see any mails.

I did a full wipe + format system/dalvik prior to installation, gapps 4.4.4 minimal. Besides the battery drain and 3g issue, everything works on the main profile. I'm on cm-11-20140713-NIGHTLY-castor_windy

I have made a flashable zip that removes 3g stuff (Battery life shows better)

In settings you still see the option but if you enable it nothing will happen

3g is fully disabled and all apps for 3g are removed

Download it ,Boot into recovery and than flash it

there is no need

grap today experimental for windy, we have already fixed this issue :)
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] pupy991:
Does your fix for the 3G-stuff also fix the battery problems regarding excessive CPU usage by Android OS?

Thanks anyway! :)
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] rcstar6696:
OK perfect i found out that the Sony cover don't lock the device its on already

Hope you can fix it!!

Reinstall has helped now its working
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Kali-:
i cant follow

i have a cheaper cover and device wake/unwake on open/close
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] rcstar6696:

this is odd

fyi, we have found another issue with windy which is still including some phone stuff
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] rcstar6696:
Can you explain wich issue you have found ??
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Kali-:
3g options is gone

but some 3g thing is still included
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] dumbl3:
What about the battery drain & charging issue?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] vyruz1986:
Any way to fix/work around this?

AFAIK the XZDualRecovery is the only recovery which can be flashed without unlocking bootloader, something I still don't want to do.

And the TWRP recovery gives me the 'wrong device' error, as well as ClockworkMod recovery.

Which recovery are you guys using?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Bin4ry:
If you don't want to unlock bootloader you cannot use this ROM because it depends on flashing CM kernel.

Regards
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] fleckdalm:
That's really sad! Is there a possibility that this changes in the future?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Bin4ry:
No sorry. We do not work on ROMs without custom kernel. Just backup your TA and unlock ;)

Regards
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] vyruz1986:
If i understand correctly backup up the TA isn't of much use since if you try to restore it after unlocking the bootloader, it will just re-lock it right again after restoring the keys.

And using it without the TA keys means the Bravia engine will be disabled, which according to this post, absolutely makes a difference...
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Bin4ry:
Yeah but Bravia Engine does not work in custom rom. So if you want Bravia stay stock if you want custom rom there would be no need of DRM Keys. ;)

I'm sorry for my impatience. But can someone of the devs say when the think nfc will work? :) It's the only thing what I miss. :)
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] thomholwerda:
I installed both the experimental build and the following nightly, and I *still* have the 3G stuff enabled. Do I need a full wipe or something?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] coreo:
how's the latest nightly.. is the battery drain better and can you charge the tablet yet?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] pupy991:
{Z2 Tablet}[DEVELOPMENT] - CM11 - Android 4.4 - FreeXperia Project

Battery drain is better (still not near stock though, of course, in this early stage of development), charging is faster now. But some 3G stuff is still there and Android OS is still draining battery (but also less now).
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] fleckdalm:
Does Bravia really make a noticeable difference?

BTW, thank you for your work on this tablet! ;)
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Bin4ry:
Which stuff is exactly still there ?

No idea, never used it.

Also for you, which is exactly the stuff, also which build exactly please? Maybe it was not merged then?!

Regards
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] thomholwerda:
While running the experimental build (cm-11-20140713-EXPERIMENTAL-castor_windy.zip) AND while running the newer nightly (cm-11-20140714-NIGHTLY-castor_windy.zip), the mobile network icon in the status bar and the mobile network-related settings are still in the settings application.

Of course, it *might* be that the low-level stuff is properly disabled and only the user-facing UI stuff remains, but that I do not know :).
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Kali-:
now u can stop complaing about missing nfc :p
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Bin4ry:
Fun fact: on my device the sim&mobile icon are not there, but you are right i not saw the mobile settings in settings menu, they are still there. with the build you mentioned, kali- merged some values now, should fix this cosmetic too.

Regards
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Bin4ry:
So, i tested the latest patches. All seems fine now. For you impatient folks i triggered another Experimental build which should automatically build after the nightlys are done.

[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] thomholwerda:
Just installed the latest experimental build, and all the mobile network stuff is now gone. Thanks for all the hard work boys and girls! <3
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] coreo:
had mine on the dock all night for about 8 hours went from 40% to 75%..so it's not charging correctly or draining too high...

Also had it plugged in whilst using it last night and it was draining. so something going on..

I'm on the latest nightly 20140714...

thanks for all the hard work guys nice rom keep up the good work..

just downloading the 15th will give this one a go..

installed looks good.. but ive got it plugged in whilst using it and it's going down in charge..
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] thomholwerda:
Yeah the battery drain is still there. This will surely get better over time - it's early days still! It's already gotten a lot better from the first few builds.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] pupy991:
{Z2 Tablet}[DEVELOPMENT] - CM11 - Android 4.4 - FreeXperia Project

Just a short feedback on the newest test-build: It's great! All the (visible) 3G stuff is away and the Android OS battery drain, too. I lost only 3% in 14h standby and charging does also work better now (at least in standby)! Thank you for your work! :)
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] meteor999:
Defo considering this rom soon. Great to see bin4ry on the z2
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Kali-:
nice!
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] pupy991:
Ok after using the tab for a while under the newest test-build I have something to add: While using the tablet, the battery drain is (of course) still much higher than on stock and charging the tab while using it is still not really possible (battery percentage decreases nevertheless).
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] thethorgrin:
Can anyone tell me whether user profiles are working for them or not?

I still got the problem that I cannot install apps on secondary profiles. Those apps don't appear in the launcher and for example swiftkey isn't available under input settings.

[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Quipeace:
I'm seeing high CPU usage by netmgrd on windy. It's heating up the tablet quite a bit, perhaps the source of the battery drain some are seeing?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Bin4ry:
I just did a test here. Created me a second profile (but same google account) and installed an app only in this second account.

My tablet shows the app on the second users launcher but not on the first users launcher, thats what it should be.

Do you still carry your "installation" from the first install?! Maybe a wipe and fresh config would help you here?

Regards
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Kali-:
netmgrd is probably something we cant need in windy

if someone is running stock and can post the outpu of "ps" can be useful
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Quipeace:
I renamed the binary and killed the process. Everything seems to be functioning just fine, and the processor scales down to 300MHz as it should.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Kali-:
i looked the stock ramdisk and according to it, netmgrd should be running on stock too, it's driven by "ro.use_data_netmgrd" on build.prop and on both is set to true

what we miss, is

ro.radio.noril=true

anyway, if someone run stock on SGP51x "adb shell getprop" should be very useful

edit

probably rild must be stopped and netmgrd should be running

if wait someone with stock confirm that and collect ps and prop

Hi sorry if I insist there someone who has tried the GPS if it works?

Try it all but fails I can not understand where is the problem.

It seems to be working fine here. Forced it to use "Device only" in location settings, and got an accurate location in Google Maps.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] Bin4ry:
Was able to reconstruct the issue. You are right, it only happens on apps which are already installed in the othr account. Have to check this problem.

ok I hope that we solve the problem of the GPS that I will do much use for my own work.

I have to say that outside of the GPS, the decline of the battery and overheating of the tablet rom ritiena is very good.

20140720 nightly, battery drain seems like stock compared to 20140719 nightly (which is great to see)! However, very noticeable issue: double tap when typing. Cm11 had this fixed for me since coming from stock double tap issues.... Until this nightly. It has however calmed down a bit after use, but still noticeable. Thanks for everyone's contribution to the ROM! I'll never go back to stock!
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Original Android Development] alfa_156:
I installed the 20140720 from the same problem as the GPS does not work.

Let me explain what it does.

When I start the navigator igo (offline), the GPS icon on the notification bar is displayed but does not hook on satellites so do not give me the position.

As with the stock firmware gps works well that's it.

Then I wanted to ask you the owner of xperia z2 tablet to you there is ingobbato the tablet?

That is, it is bent?

Thanks I look for a good solution.

I apologize for my bad English.
