Planning to give OTA updates on this one also...

[MENTION=4985895]golfgtiedition30[/MENTION]

Maybe u wanna give a go on this one also :cool:
[Xperia Z Android Development] leongzxc:
hm but function-wise seems to be the same as your carbon build but with a combination of slim features.

only thing that i can see from the feature list is hover and peek

but anyway i will still give it a go tmr. very late here

kernel is the same as your carbon build btw? because i really love the battery life there. :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] Alx31:
its slim based so...fusion3, kernel and tree from slim...i tried it fast fast, but i will flash it soon as i have 5 minutes to restore all my things
[Xperia Z Android Development] leongzxc:
alright. i'll report how things are tomorrow.

worst come to worst if its still not as stable yet. i'll just use back your carbon rom. :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] Alx31:
I flashed it for few hours and it was stable enough...even network povider's apn was found automatically, anyways i tried main functions and all was ok ;)

tested the rom but not to my liking.

everything was okay. no major bugs or anything. phone was usable.

prefer your carbon build more. already reverted

thanks tho! :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] Alx31:
well its different, slim based...and fast :D

Tapatalked with Yuga
[Xperia Z Android Development] leongzxc:
yea noticed it was really faster compared to the others.

btw mind helping me out in your carbon thread? i kinda asked a question :)

but its okay take your time!
[Xperia Z Android Development] akisg:
Playing around with this rom for a few hours and it looks really good and fast. Coming from a CarbonRom the only feature i miss is double tap to wake and sleep (not only in statusbar for the last one). I'm gonna try the sweetener pack now. Btw, your link in OP is not linked right, had to make a search to find the right link ( Sweetener Pack XDA Thread )

Keep up the good work!
[Xperia Z Android Development] Alx31:
i didn't noticed it...thank i will correct it =)

Yeah its sad that feature is not implemented...i will see what i can do for that cuz i actually miss it also x)

Zip file no opened. Please fix zip file.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Alx31:
Bring back logs please

Sms/data works but calls are bugged.
[Xperia Z Android Development] hunting_:
when i receive the call fone reboot and now receive the call but no voice
[Xperia Z Android Development] elias234:
Will it work as a secondary rom on multirom ?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Alx31:
im pretty sure if u ask to people who made multirom...they will say lp5.0 roms has to be primary rom but i never tried multirom by myself i don't have enough of 24hours in a day
[Xperia Z Android Development] danny19901:
Great work mate I'm using Candy ROM 5.0 Android L and it's amazing no issues yet flashed it earlier just curious though is it possible to get the user in use icon to go in status bar ? To stay I'm sure I saw it in early L release that was dev preview
[Xperia Z Android Development] Alx31:
bro its real painfull to build it, everyday is different; ril is not working anymore here so...spending countless hours on it.

im first of all trying to make primary functions works, then i will see for other extra stuff, but now its beta stage and will be like that a while...
[Xperia Z Android Development] greglord:
screenshots aren't working in first post. thank you ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] Alx31:
Wich screenshots?
[Xperia Z Android Development] danny19901:
Just noticed android 5.0.1 is on AOSP sources as google have released update and so far I have literally no issues at all except odd sound glitch when playing music but only happens when installing apps screenshots work fine here

As you can see with this screen shot

Have to say android L so far I'm enjoying it very much and ril seems to be working perfectly here

Also screen brightness seems to be working fine here manually works perfectly not tried auto brightness

Damn can't see differences in screenshots but screen brightness does change when set manually
[Xperia Z Android Development] hutilicious:
hard screenshot fail :D
[Xperia Z Android Development] Alx31:
Anyways ril is about to be fixed by cm team...i will use it, but i just made a build and its not done yet

i also made validus with same kernel...
[Xperia Z Android Development] danny19901:
For me ril seems fine however when I answer a call I can't hear anyone on the end of it ?
[Xperia Z Android Development] elias234:
I tryed multirom and this what i did :

*i extracted boot.img and from multiboot recovery i injected the boot.img

*i flashed this rom , i booted normally

* i flashed the injected boot.img

* i get to multiboot and i selected android 5.0 and booted normally but when i select my secondary rom android 4.4 i get an error saying the primary rom should have kexex multiboot patch

My request : can someone make the kernel with this patch so i get working multiboot

Should i post this to multiboot thread instead of here ?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Alx31:
I will do it...but let me first fix these freaking bugs, driving me nuts actually, we working together with SuperHans and we still having hard times with cm's ril, and even Pabx one. CM guyz abandonning our platform i guess, or they wait we push fixes idk...nobody help us, beside cool guyz from rhine platform (non cm) ...as im having limited knowledge its taking ages.
[Xperia Z Android Development] elias234:
is there a way to gain root access ? i flashed couple versions of supers su but nothing worked , supersu says no su binaries installed and supersu can't install it , i searched and found nothing

is there any solution that i missed ?/
[Xperia Z Android Development] danny19901:
Flash SuperSU latest worked for me
[Xperia Z Android Development] elias234:
How did you flashed ? From recovery of this rom not working says can't mount something
[Xperia Z Android Development] danny19901:
I flashed with philz recovery as normal no issues I will get link for the SuperSU for you

Choose the cwm/TWRP one 3rd link in thread I think below the play store etc...

[Xperia Z Android Development] Alx31:

[Xperia Z Android Development] m1ko8:
What recovery can I install after install this ROM?
[Xperia Z Android Development] danny19901:
Philz recovery, CWM, TWRP it's up to you I flashed with Philz
[Xperia Z Android Development] m1ko8:
I cant flash anything in cyanogenmod recovery but when i flash recovery (boot.img in fastboot) system stop work.
[Xperia Z Android Development] danny19901:
Use flashify or rashr app on playstore :D
[Xperia Z Android Development] m1ko8:
Oh thanks :D, maybe U know when Xposed will be avaliable for Android L?
[Xperia Z Android Development] danny19901:
So far not sure it's still being worked on but may also never happen for a long time xposed as Google keeps changing ART runtime also 5.0.1 I have been using a while and it's brilliant but more slowdowns and audio issues compared 4.4.4 tbh with you random slowdowns in apps also few other odd issues I would wait for RIL to work in cm12 or candyrom etc... TBH but if you want to test then do a backup 1st unless you don't mind downloading everything 1st
[Xperia Z Android Development] m1ko8:
Thanks again for informations :D

I dont change installed back 4.4.4 for Walkman and Xposed Addons. Without this things i dont change Android (android 5.0 have 2 K more performance in Antutu , 4.4 19-20k 5.0 21-22 k)

[Xperia Z Android Development] hutilicious:

[Xperia Z Android Development] Karrammosky:
Can I flash it just wiping data/dalvik/cache and factory reset? I'm using CM11 now...
[Xperia Z Android Development] hunting_:
Yap
[Xperia Z Android Development] TrueFriend-cz:
Sorry this is bug. After format int-card starting ok.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Alx31:
no prob buddy, glad to see its ok now =)
[Xperia Z Android Development] w_ayon:
The probln is , in case of outgoing calls.. The opposite person repeatedly hear the first word i say .. Incoming call works fine. What i have done is. Open the catlog tgen press record from menu button then open my dialer and call. Den i hang up and end the recording. I dnt knw if its the right proccedure. I have installed it as secondary rom along with criskelos rom 4.4.4.which is my primery rom.providing the catlog
[Xperia Z Android Development] Alx31:
No...im not even checking, this rom is early stages, u install it without multi rom or no bug for me. As i said, i clean installed it, and i have any call or data issue, except the icon not showing signal despite there is signal catching.

U wanna use mods, fine; but don't come here to say this or that is not working, u have to understand i have something else to do than investigate whats wrong in the rom when MY install steps are not followed.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Karrammosky:
Using it since yesterday, I have not found any bugs except for the icon that indicates the type of connection, it properly shows the signal strength but sometimes "3G" or "LTE" symbol disappears even if it is still connected. Battery consumption is normal and in general the ROM is smooth. Thank you for your hard work!
[Xperia Z Android Development] danny19901:
I think 5.0.2 is out now hope google fixed the odd performance issue I get with some apps where lags to death but opening recents and going back to app fixes it also reported by other users with different devices running L
[Xperia Z Android Development] gh1234:
I installed the Rom yesterday and it works great. No lags or anything. However when I'm connected to a WiFi network the dns resolution is very slow. So I can ping my dns server in 30 ms or something but loading a complex website with different urls takes up to a minute. A speed test shows that I have a ping of 20-30ms and downspeed of up to 40mbit per sec.

The strange thing is, when I run nslookup (busybox version) it's as fast as it should be. When an app running in the vm triggers the lookup it's damn slow. Anyone else having this issue?

I started with the most recent version (16th I guess) so I'm not sure if this problem occurred in previous versions...

Apart from that, tanks for the awesome work!
[Xperia Z Android Development] Alx31:
will provide a new build tomorrow, candy5 merged to 5.0.2 ....i worked whole night on validus, its building now but cuz of that freaking twrp build not booting =(
[Xperia Z Android Development] TrueFriend-cz:
Google is sh*t. Why many screens have White background only? Many People have problem eyes. SuperAmoled displays very draining baterry. Why Google step by step going to hell. Many users o I/O conference and on internet wanted black background for apps. Android 5.x no solved this. No respected requests by users and apply inverse solution - to all Google apps add White background without Settings to change black. Now, complete Android 5.x UI in White. Why? Sh*it why??

What are those conferences and sites on the Internet for that sh*t developers. Not on everything but the essentials yeah. What good is a wealth of functions and services, and I have benefited from their use when my eyes are glowing white eyes and it hurts rather than to have comfort. The worst thing is that in the evening and at night. I was a dim display is minimum.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Flashalot:
Take 2
[Xperia Z Android Development] TrueFriend-cz:
Why? You probably do not go anywhere. Enter your Google into play Dark theme. Same to gsearch, xda search (dark apps) or Team Blackout (many sw have old). Where can you find many many and many items with these themes. What do you think it makes sense to do such themes? Aesthetics, appearance, but a lot of people use these styles not because of the appearance but to not hurt the eyes. And on Amoled displays White background very draining baterry.

Why Google based system on White UI if many users on internet, forums, xda, etc. from Android ver.2.x wanted black Interface? Android is open source for open community, no monopol.

Example: Change color for developer have edit 0,0 line in source in SystemUI.apk (or framework for changes at all apps). #ffffff to #000000 for bg and inverse for texts.

Or add function for switch to menu. Suitable seems to combine it with profiles for day and night mode.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Cuzz1369:
Well why don't you spend a few thousand hours to learn how to develop so you know which 0,0 to change to make it all dark. And white background "very draining battery" stop sitting on the settings screen you hate so much.
[Xperia Z Android Development] TrueFriend-cz:
Because if every developer such generous and knew what brings into ROM here can bring directly to the development not only in the community XDA so it would not cover only this community but each user os android outside the root. Of course it also depends on whether Google's benefit. I present it here, because at the moment I do not have ways and means to do it and if you evaluate a creator that it is beneficial, it would be beneficial not only for me from the reasons already mentioned. Do you know anything about whether the XDA developers deal somehow with Android developers to add various features ROM from here?

Example:

Original YouTube

Black YouTube
[Xperia Z Android Development] Darknites:
I pretty sure this site isn't owned by Google or any of us so all of that moaning has got you no where. So why don't you go to Google moan to them about it since you know they own android. Or a crazy idea would to build a rom that's all black.
[Xperia Z Android Development] danny19901:
OK I'm using this latest ril is working but not showing any signal at all but data is working but it's not connecting to playstore oddly
[Xperia Z Android Development] Alx31:
mine connect just fine to playstore, change gapps, im using banks minimal ones.

and about signal icon its known and will see later
[Xperia Z Android Development] danny19901:
Flashed a banks and working now I dirty flashed over PABX 5.0.1 Android L and all is working great now I have flashed banks RIL is weird though LTE shows no signal but 3G, HSDPA+ etc... Shows signal not a problem though I'm glad can make and receive calls :D (My Daily Driver)

OK just curious but is it just me or does Music app FC for other users
[Xperia Z Android Development] TrueFriend-cz:
It is not complaining but recitation of the problem and its solution proposal. If you have a problem to differentiate and to return back to school. We are located in a community where such problems are solved. I am not here as long as I know what everything is possible, and I suppose Google does not produce a system depending on how it attacks but also used some channels for the possible development. Likewise you here. Otherwise, what you can do except cry. Certainly such cooperation was not hurt. Google Android is an open group, XDA group is open. ROMs from Google devs have many bugs. ROMs from XDA have many bugs. XDA rom updating ROM average every ° / week half-year. Google average every ° / one-four years. Where problem? I do not know if something like that here already somewhere in the background does not work. It is quite likely that it just occurred to me.
[Xperia Z Android Development] langeveld024:
Wear sunglasses and enjoy :cool::cool::cool:
[Xperia Z Android Development] Darknites:
Lol I don't need to back school but maybe you do since you forgot about rules which in this case is you been way off topic so please do everyone a favor and post that crap else where like maybe in the off topic section or just not waste your time with it.
