Was trying to install RomAur and I couldn't get flashtool

working so I switched to installing this Rom.

I haven't finished setting it up yet, I'm having problems with the Wi-Fi.

Lte

is working fine.

Wi-Fi connects but doesn't work like there is no traffic. I'm not sure if it's because of early attempt with RomAur

Any help would be appreciated

-------------------------

After 3 reboots it started wifi started to work on it's own.

Hope this can help someone else as wellyet

Just want to tell you gem xperia xposed already update that suitable for xperia z3 launcher. .hope you can include latest update at your rom. .thanks
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] niaboc79:
Problem is from your side, not the rom.

Flash a stock ftf, then flash eXistenZ.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] niaboc79:
Sure ;)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Androidians:
Thanks. .your awesome dude ?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] funky0308:
If you have problems flashing ROM.

Don't change anything in Aroma, just hit next, next, next.

Restart and then reflash apps and data again.

The thing is, sometimes you get error "symlink failed" - DON'T RESTART IF YOU GET THAT MSG - FLASH AGAIN (without any changes in Aroma) and it'll flash correctly.

Where's the problem, in script, recovery or somewhere else...who cares...

You have to know one thing - error while flashing - don't restart - flash again... :D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] dyepnoodle:
i noticed that this error only happens (in my case) if you wipe system under advance option (twrp). If i do factory reset, wipe cache, dalvik and data under advance option the rom is being flashed properly but if i include system then flash the rom "symlink failed" shows up in recovery. :)

What's the easiest way to flash this ROM coming from CM11 ...I REGRET flashing CM11.

---------- Post added at 10:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 PM ----------

So in order for us to get philz or twrp we have to be on stock?

I'm on CM11 and tries flashing through CMW and nope...not working. I read that you have to use Philz or Twrp.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] BlackMN:
-Flash 0.314 FW

-Root

-Install recovery

-Wipe everything

-Flash rom
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] :
well my friend this is how it will be, first when you're on CM11 did you install at least M5 Kernel? if yes then all you have to do is go into recovery mode and flash first DoomKernel 10, and reboot to recovery then wipe data + wipe cache and go after to mount and storage, now wipe system and data and cache and if you see wipe boot do that also if not just wipe what i've told you at first, after that go to advanced and wipe dalivk, now flash the ROM and flash after you finish DoomLord v10 reboot and you're good to go! this is how i do i have no trouble going to cm11 or cm11s or even PA and getting back to stock!

that way you wont need to flash everytime the official ftf and root and stuff like that

hope this will help :)

Can't remember if I already said this but I'll repeat.

Niaboc was right about my (and others) LTE problem.

It's APN problem.

I tried many things.

Flashing new baseband

Flashing stripped ftf with baseband

Replacing etc files and folders

But nothing helped...

Then I, finally, listened him and contacted my carrier and guess what?

I had wrong APN address.

Check that if you are having LTE problems.

Simple downloading Internet settings from settings/more/Internet settings will just install same address (the one you already had in your etc/customisation folder).
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] roy8846:
I had no LTE when flashing this rom, nearly gave up. But network settings were set to WCDMA (preferred)/GSM and not LTE. That sorted it for me!
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] real77055:

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] sensei_sai:
If you want an update, do it yourself!!!!

Otherwise, just wait quietly. Niaboc will for sure release a great update, once it is ready.

Be patient.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] dyepnoodle:
check a few page back and you'll see that niaboc is porting a lot of z3 features to his ROM, give him time. its not an easy task. He'll release it once its ready.

Niaboc said (the other day) - update will be out in a few weeks.

At the moment he's working on porting new sound processing from Z3.

He ported new, super stamina, BT security screen unlocking, systemUI, new Z3 settings and many more apps and features...

He said that and it's confirmed everything is working without a single error...

You got kinda angry answer because Niaboc is a rear dev on XDA who is capable to port full Z3 ROM to Z2 (I hope someone will prove I'm wrong but I doubt) and we just have to leave him alone to work in peace...

One of the XDA "rule" is - never ask for ETA. ;)

ROM will be out soon and it'll be revolution for Z2 (maybe even Z1) users..

Xperia S users still remembers time when we got Honami UI and full ROM port (Z1 - XS)... This is even greater and bigger...

We'll have something incredibly very soon...

We'll have Z3 before anyone else :D

Depending the ROM content, there is specific information which must be deleted for compatibility purposes. In some cases, these partitions that we must manually delete, thend to keep information which may even brick the phone when it interacts with modified ROMs.

Using this rom sinve v1 and plenty happy with it.

I just have a problem: my smartband won't automatically connect if I return back

from plane mode

. It's supposed to reconnect itself automatically but I have to use NFC. Then, I can hear the "NFC connexion beep" but nothing happens.

I have to reboot my phone to reconnect it.

When It reboots, it reconnects itself without NFC, as expected.

I often go in plane mode for personal purpose so it's a bit annoying... :(

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] funky0308:
Not ROM problem.

I

Have using smartband and eXistenZ v2 and everything is working fine with smartband.

When I disable airplane mod it connects smartband again without enabling NFC.

Check your MODs and apps.

If you flashed some NFC mod try to disable that.

I had similar problems when I was using start NFC on unlocked screen

MOD.

Could be both

Depends what did you do.

If you set dpi to higer nr that's probably it but it could be something with xposed as well...

Maybe error in nav bar dpi settings.

But I would bet on screen dpi.

I use bluetooth audio (Spotify) with my JVC head unit in my car and have little-to-no audio quality problems. Sometimes the artist name does get stuck till I refresh Spotify but it used to do that with the stock ROM as well.

This fix completely sorted out the headphones / speakers volume problem without breaking it: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23578570567715685 (Z2 soundmod 1.3 KK_stereo+headphones boost)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] roy8846:
Is there a sure fix for low sound on headphones?

I flashed zip some kind member supplied but lost speaker sound completely

Edit... 1 post up it seems ha! Thanks

Testing now..
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] BobbyHenceMcGee:
Okay well that should be easy enough to incorporate into the ROM so thanks for that, the bluetooth audio problem was mostly the chopping audio. The overall sound quality was fine. However the problem with the inability to skip/pause songs and display the current song on there was fixed by installing the stock ROM, so it is definitely isolated to ExistenZ. Not to mention the fact I tried at least 3 full wipes (installed stock ROM, then flashed dual recovery and then ExistenZ with various settings) and the problem remained.

I'm assuming it is probably a tweak done to the build.prop. Seems the most logical.

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] funky0308:
You are asking for flashable zip of all eXisteZ features or what?

If you asked for that, yes, that could be created but all this mods and features are created for this ROM and I doubt niaboc want you to use that on another ROM.

And if you would like to use that on stock, that,if you ask me, doesn't have any sense.

You need framework and many other system files for all mods to work properly... and if you add all those apps you'll end with eXistenZ....

It's easier just to use eXistenZ ;)

I set ROM , finally, and now I'm more than happy with it.

I'll post screenshot later to show battery life on existenz...
