RRO layers should already work, this is integrated by default by Sony.

Have you tried to download some themes using layers ?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] niaboc79:
No more Black main theme. Something related using theme engine may comes later.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] ianrobbie:
I don't know what's more impressive. Your ROM or the fact you've found spare time with a new baby!

Congratulations and keep up the good work (when you can!)

Holy grail...you are the man ;)

Will it be based on .726?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] jimbo77:
[MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION] I don't usually ask for things to be added. But is there any chance you can add the option to skip songs by longpressing volume buttons? This is super useful and since Xposed is not working 100% as of now it will be something worth to have on the ROM itself :)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] spencerchong:
some help please!!

I just bought a Z2, so I downgraded to 0.314 in order to root.

then I install NUT dual recovery, but after the script cmmanded the phone to reboot, it doesn't go into recovery. i cannot do it manually either. what's wrong?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] TechMod:
Which option did you choose? Have you set the requirements properly?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] kennyjackson19:
Awww.. Others started to love your rom more cos of black stock Sony themed.. Cheers
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] m_k1815:
I love to see your ROM ,Niaboc.

when release it?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] gamer649:
Yet ANOTHER ETA, can you all stop asking for ETA's? It will get released when he damn well pleases to release it. He has more important commitments than this ROM right now (his newborn child). If you want a customised ROM that badly, learn to code yourself and make it yourself. If you aren't going to do this, stop asking for ETA's.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] dilema:
I tried one theme, but not much changed. Might just have to try different themes. I read that Sony hadn't fully implemented it, only partially.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] xtremepredador:
Counting the days Rom Niaboc79 Lolipop !! Oowwww
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] spencerchong:
yes definitely. hmm I got help from another thread, managed to boot into TWRP. I flashed the ROM, and followed instructions on Aroma precisely, now my phone seems to be in a bootloop @_@ Yes I've wiped data prior to flashing.. @_@ :(
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] TechMod:
You got locked bootloader?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] spencerchong:
Yes my bootloader is locked. I've chosen that option in aroma too
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] TechMod:
Try to reinstall and use recovery version 2.8.3. Then wipe cache/dalvik and reboot
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] spencerchong:
yes I've done that and it works :)

realised BUT recovery after 2.8.3 only works on Lollipop, and for some reason this ROM only works when NUT recovery is present. but it's all working fine now :D :D thank you
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] sublinker:
Uumh, [MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION], so how's our little eXistenZer doing?

You know I sense the name of this ROM might change in the future. Names like "the legendary eXistenZ", "the great eXistenZ", "eXistenZ! The future", and "eXistenZ of all time".

Your post keep reminding me that I will definitely be joining you soon late this month, and oh! for the second time too.

Considering how well you employ true creativity into your work, and how well you plan and organize your work, those kids are blessed to have you as a Dad. And I hope you employ these same tactics in moulding them. Just like this great ROM that will not develop itself without you, so are these babies. Their creator determine their future, but we're the tools used by their creator to show them the way.

Thanks for the time with us on this magnificent ROM, and God bless you and your family ? :D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] nohedah:
Congratulations

CONGRATULATIONS, we wish the best of all for you and your family .:highfive:

your work is awesome ;)

i hope you see this post :fingers-crossed:

i still using the v 3.1.5 because the good sound quality ;) better battery performance and higher camera frame .:good:

we expect you to work on the lollipop and make it very very better in every way such as sound quality of speakers and headphone . please active both speakers for call and notifications with loud sound .:cyclops:

and if there is any way bring back the xloud!!

i install the last build of 5.0.2 for a few hours and sound quality was disappointing :eek:

but take your time man no rush:cowboy:

your work is worth to wait for .

I'm currently on rooted lollipop with a working recovery.. is it necessary for me to downgrade ? Or I could just flash the zip file from recovery?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Abdl:
Congratulations [MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION] on your new child.

However I have one request please. Please if possible, incorporate Z3 camera in the new version of lollipop just like you did in v3.0.0 of the great eXistenz rom. Please please I beg you please do that.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] sublinker:
Downgrade, that will ensure correct partitioning and clean system.

This is kk ROM.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] suta:
Hi.. I messed my phone up.. I wipe the system and flashed the this rom all via twrp. but I was stuck at boot screen. We are not supposed to wipe anything on twrp? Was on samsung phone before and I usually wipe everything except for external sd card to reduce the chance of getting bugs.

we don't wipe anything via recovery when installing custom rom here?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Pandemic:
[MENTION=1309496]suta[/MENTION]

Flash rom then wipe data, cache and dalvik and better use cwm recovery because twrp give sometimes a bad situation.

Sent From MoonWalker Provolution V1.0 [Beta] Based On LP 5.0.2 !
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] icpart:
DO NOT DO THAT!

I doit and flash eXistenZ via recovery from LP with full wipe and after that i stuck on Sony logo after reboot. In that case you will have soft bricked device.

Downgrade via Flahstool to 314, root it and install again eXistenZ 4.5.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] mrrflagg:
Is it possible to flash this rom to my Z3 compact? I love the look of this rom and would like to give it a go. (I'm rather disappointed at the lack of rom dev with the z3c)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] hzmenxd:
No
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Vivaz90197:
Why no? On Z3 thread I see package to port any rom from Z2 to Z3 and Z3C.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] hzmenxd:
Its a rom for Z2. There is no compatibility with Z3 or Z3c. No "port" here
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] suta:
so we are not supposed to wipe system partition? because on Samsung I always 'wipe system partition before installing a rom' and it worked without any problem. But not for this rom.

Both if you, do this and it will stop the FC. Navigate to /vendor/overlay and delete the SemcMusic-Overlay-300.apk file. You can then access the Walkman settings.

Also, there is a Q&A thread for questions. This isn't a ROM development issue.

2.The build,i thought i would be able to handle the back glass well but no i cant, i have replaced it 4 times.

3.Non-removable battery

4.Call quality;i still get complains from others saying they cant hear me well,even on stock lollipop,and i tried several other roms as well.

Im not a big fan of touchWiz but im gonna adapt:)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] ahmedyar91:

I Am Having Difficulties Setting Up Viper4andorid.. [MENTION=6035247]ArmedHitman[/MENTION] asked if busybox is installed or not..

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] TechMod:
I

The Problem with installing Viper4Android is the enforcing SELinux. Try to install SELinux changer from the market. You will be able to install viper then.

If it is the problem that viper isn't running you have to deactivate the sound-enhancements in the Walkman settingw.

And you shouldnt install busybox...

Poweramp more often and stock one rarely
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] sublinker:
To make poweramp work with viper4android you need to uncheck direct volume control in poweramp settings.

And on v4a change compatibility mode from normal to compatible.

Sort of an ETA post (Don't crucify me)

Hi [MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION] is there any possibility of making a separate locked thread in which you

could post updates on your progress, new features etc.? I reckon it would make life easier

for all of us including yourself and it would help with all this anticipation anxiety. Because

as you know you are currently the only developer making a stock based LP ROM in this

tightly wound community of Sony enthusiasts.

Thanks in advance and I hope you get where I'm coming from.

And all the best with the new bundle of joy. Enjoy it while it's small and innocent :D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] blackhawk_LA:
That would mean more work for him, so slower development and the most important, less time for how family.

So I think it's not worth a "news" thread just for all the impatient users.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Budgiemanr33gtr:
Well all it takes is making one more thread which is just a few minutes. It's not a monumental amount of work and it would

make all the impatient s***s happier :D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] alexs784:
"slower development [...] less time for family". Are you serious? Why are you so tragic? His request was really educated and hi is just asking for write two lines of words about rom state every time he CAN, is not asking to call every single user of the thread. Please..... :eek:
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] blackhawk_LA:
Well, this is off topic. I'll end here. He is already giving us some news, so you just have to WAIT until it's done or there are some news. But asking for "how is the development going?" just because you want the rom sooner (and of course you have no help to offer to the dev) is very childish and is like asking for eta.

Men, it's just a ROM. Ok, a really good ROM and we enjoy this things, but...

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] KevinB88:
How about just locking this thread. For all questions there is a Q&A thread.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Pandemic:
+1

Exactly and i agree about that, even i have it busy and have an 8 months old son, so family goes on the 1st place because that is the future of life instead hanging around on XDA 24/7, so family 1st then the rest comes later.

[MENTION=4562119]Budgiemanr33gtr[/MENTION]

Wrong !!

i am also busy with a new rom of MoonWalker, but less time to finish it due my wife and son like i said, so please show some respect and wait with patience otherwise build a rom by your own or do some school stuff.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Budgiemanr33gtr:
[MENTION=3390974]blackhawk_LA[/MENTION] I never asked for how it's going. All I did was make a suggestion.

And it's not just a ROM... It's either this ROM or me getting the OnePlus One as the

development is quite stagnant for this phone and it is increasingly harder for me to sell

the Z2 since they go ass cheap as 200 euro right now. Sony royally faffed this one up.

[MENTION=4150908]KevinB88[/MENTION] locking the thread might not be a great idea as not many people seem to use

the Q&A. But if my suggested Update Thread were to be made then I'm all for locking this :D

[MENTION=2902434]Pandemic[/MENTION] sorry for forgetting about you but I'm just not into your ROM and you have not got

such a monumental following (Hope more people start using your ROM).

I appreciate your effort but I still think this phone is going to an early

grave thanks to the disparity between the LB and UB ROM capabilities.

And finally, I asked to not be crucified in my initial post and you guys did just that.

Come on like, I just brought forward a suggestion. Not an argument or an order...

Thank you for your kind words and good luck :D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] niaboc79:
I am working hard actually, I have implemented interested things. I have many more ideas but time as come to publish a first lollipop eXistenZ build.
