Hi, i updated to v2.0 and now everytime i reboot my d6503 x-reality is deactivated in display options and i have to activate it manually.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] The Peterle:
It seems u have a locked bootloader. The fix for x reality only work on unlocked bootloader.

Regards Peterle
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Bavarianguy:
Thanks Peterle, can u tell me what benefits ill loose when i unlock bootloader?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] alinghi100:
It only works on ub only because if you have lb you don't need it, xreality works (because you have drm keys).
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] blyndfyre:
So are you claiming X-Reality works on locked bootloader then?

---------- Post added at 08:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:25 AM ----------

I noticed this ROM incorporates "Double Tap Status Bar to Sleep", which is glorious.

Does this ROM still include "Double Tap to Wake"?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Bavarianguy:
[MENTION=5282519]blyndfyre[/MENTION]: Yes, double tap 2 wake works.

I got one more issue. So i installed Z2 Tweaks with scripts and since then im not able to install apps because system says there isnt any free space available. thats impossible cause there are 3 gigabyte free space and i got 32gb free micro sd.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rintala@hakunila.com:
This rom rocks!! everything works fine! :good:

I am trying to install theme, and phone ask xposed install, and warnings after that..

do i loose root or recovery if i install xposed? What that is?? Sorry i´m kind of noob for custom roms...
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] blyndfyre:
Can we customize the notification LED in this ROM?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] dd66:
Not native.

I use Light Manager, it does the job!
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] blyndfyre:
I'm guessing I could just install "Gravity Box" module and use that.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rappa619:
How do you make a flashable zip with baseband files?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] zadusimple:
If it is a normal theme then you can directly install the apk via file manager or play store. If it requires xposed than you need to install it from there, however you need a rootes phone to do that. Hope this helps.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] alinghi100:
That's what I'm saying. I explain better to you:

Inside the phone there are the DRM keys that allows you to use xreality and some other features I don't remember now.

If you are on locked bootloader and you install a custom rom the keys will remain untouched and xreality still works without a patch. The problem is when you unlock bootloader because doing this you lose the keys (infact before unlocking bootloader you need to backup keys) but some rom such this or monxDified contains a patch that make xreality works without keys. Don't worry about your keys when you unlock bootloader you can restore them (if you backupped) whenever you want and relock bootloader following the guides inside z2 forum here in xda.

Hit thanks if I clarified ;)

Do you use luckypatcher? Common issue caused by it...
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Bavarianguy:
No i used XperiaTweakz from nreuse
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rintala@hakunila.com:
xposed installer says "the latest version of xsposed is currently not active

did you install the framework and reboot?"

do i have to do something else, than push install button?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Bavarianguy:
no just install and reboot. just make sure u have rooted z2
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] nreuge:
I've googled my issue, and it could be due to the fact that recovery in this rom has been modified for OTA updater.

As already said, I've now flashed the latest original XZDualrecovery. And I've uninstalled the OTA updater. My last restore was fine.

I need to do several backup / restore to be sure that the problem is definitely fixed. I'll keep you informed.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] niaboc79:
The rom is using old files for recovery, that's all ;)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] BobbyHenceMcGee:
Rightio then.

I've only backed up using PhilZ via XZDualrecovery. So I can't really comment on the restoring aspect.

Typically I just do a fresh install and then restore certain apps using Titanium Backup.

I've had bad luck regarding nandroid restores on previous devices so I tend to avoid it at all costs.

So you'll update for the next release? How often does XZDualrecovery update? I'm new to the Xperia Z2.

By the way Niaboc I left a DevDB review for your ROM. I'd donate as well but my credit card bill scares the crap out of me.

I will definitely down the line.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] gravtec:
You can flash manually XZDualrecovery new version...
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] nreuge:
Yes, I've installed Titanium Backup and scheduled a full backup in my extSD every night. I've lost all my SMS/MMS for 2 years and it won't happen again.

Last NUT's XZDualrecovery is Z2-lockeddualrecovery2.7.151-BETA.flashable.zip. I've never had issues with this one.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] funky0308:
Download zip and check which files I have put in and you'll get it.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] nreuge:
This is a comparison of 2 shots taken with the same low light conditions and superior auto mode. The top one with the stock camera and the bottom one with the modded camera (full resolution).

You can clearly see a purple coloration at the periphery of the bottom shot. This issue has already been reported elsewhere, it appears in low light conditions. So, if you want to take good shots in low light conditions, I think it's better to keep the stock camera.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] blyndfyre:
Could you try setting the modded camera to 8MP in the options when taking low light shots?

I definitely see the purple hue, but the bottom shot does look more detailed.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] BobbyHenceMcGee:
I'd also like to see whether the problem still occurs when using the modded camera set to 8MP.

AKA whether it is the app itself or just the resolution setting.

If it's the resolution setting it is a problem for Sony to work out (my god I hope it is just the modded app, Sony are slow as hell)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rappa619:
Where's the zip?

Ooh...sorry mate...

Dead

Sir...after flashing your rom i got a dead phone...i cant charge, use flashtool to install ftf....even power on.... :crying::crying:

now icant use my cp :(

help pls.

(from v1 of existenz rom i flash v2..)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rintala@hakunila.com:
Not even vol up and power button abaut 4sec wont work?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] BobbyHenceMcGee:
How is that even possible?

Existenz doesn't touch the bootloader.. Either your device is just faulty in general and decided it was going to pack up at that specific moment or there is more to this story.

Either way I would contact Sony or the place of purchase and get a repair job/replacement.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] NHOman14:
yes sir..i tried to charge it last night cause i thought it was just drained...but it doesnt even work...even led lights doesnt work :'(

I dont know also what happened :( because v1+ is working fine on my phone..im planning to go sony center to check if they can revive my phone... :(

F*ck...my bad guys...i thought i was for xperia z but when i read it carefully...it was for z2!!..that's why i got a dead phone...

SORRY..please understand how noob i am..IM VERY SORRY :(

now, can anyone know how to recover my phone :(
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] BobbyHenceMcGee:
Yep knew there'd be more to it.

If your phone won't turn on and won't charge or go into Fastboot mode or flash mode then the only option is to call up Sony and get them to replace the motherboard. Best of luck guy, we've all made mistakes. Hopefully it turns out for you.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] NHOman14:
thank you sir..i just thouth it was the v2 of existenz for z...im not reading it carefully..

now for motherboard..hmm..i think its expensive??..but i will try if it is the only way but if there are other way..ill try :)

Thanks and sorry guys
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] mrpeev:
I have a problem... After flashing v2.0.0 on top of v1.0.5 my camera won't turn on, and I don't want to make factory reset... Any suggestions?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] gravtec:
Try clear cache & data camera
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] madmax916sps:
Anybody who use this rom with different dpi? Did it work, or problems with apps?

Best regards
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] funky0308:
You can try to leave it on charger for a day or two and then try to repair it using SUS or PC Comapanion but if you can't charge it - there's actually no help.

If you have unlocked bootloader, you can try to prepare fastboot and hit enter and then connect USB to PC (first connect to device, of course) while holding vol up.

All these are desperate moves but you can't lose nothing...

Or you can go to Sony store and, if you still have warranty, play stupid and try to get device repaired...

BTW - it's interesting you even succeeded to flash Z2 ROM on Z...

If there wasn't kernel in package you would be fine but you have flashed kernel for Z2 on Z and that's probably end of your phone...
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] bLack_Q:
No problems on 420 DPI.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] BobbyHenceMcGee:

That's what I'm using. Perfect balance between screen real estate and keeping everything touch-friendly without having to use a tooth pick to tap on buttons.

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Mazellat:

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Zetinal:
Love this ROM, but I have a quick question about the dark theme... If I go to 'Show All Folders' in the email app all of the text goes black on me. Anyone else having this issue and anything I can do other than change themes or squint really hard? :)

Thanks!
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] sensei_sai:
320 dpi is perfect thanks to niaboc hard Work!!

Even the phone dialer is perfect.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] schwags:
Going to try this ROM as my first custom on my Z2. I did not unlock bootloader, not sure the advantage to that, I guess it would allow custom Kernel's and Radio's. Not sure I'm ready to blow my warranty unlocking the bootloader, although I'm in US and don't think I can get a warranty anyway.

I didn't see checksums for the latest v2.0.0 version, I downloaded from two locations to make sure they matched and match on my phone before flashing. In case anyone wants them:

LTE wasn't working at all but that's baseband and firmware base problems, not ROM.

Other than that - great ROM like always... ( on other devices)

Hi everyone

I bought a new phone Z2, of course, my phone has not needed a lot of applications. I'm new when it comes to android 4.4.2.

I would like to ask you about some things. thank you in advance for your reply

If I root or Install NUT dual recovery to device lose my warranty? Can I clean it later the system so that there is no trace?

Thanks:)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] niaboc79:
If you're not unlocking your bootloader, you will be able to flash a stock ftf then your phone will be fully stock.

But it depend of what problem you could have, if your phone is dead or with a broken screen you won't be able to do anything.

Also I have never seen anywhere in a warranty that you can't modify the software.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Ambor:
Thanks very much. Probably be seduced. I thought so too but it is worth to ask :)

It is possible?

call recording

Hey everyone..

I'm minutes away from buying this awesome phone, but have one question before I do though:)

I'm on windows phone right because of camera quality (Lumia 1020). But I must admit that I miss android and roms like these too much to stay on that system:)!

On my previous galaxy nexus I had complete call recording, directly from the line, and not like a lot off apps do, record from the speaker..

I remember I had to chance my kernel in order for it to work though.

I would really love to know if true call recording is possible with this rom??

Thanks in advance!
