[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azazello.big:
Same issue here .
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nameless One:
I would appreciate a couple of things if you can find the time.

Firstly, adding the option that some ROMs and Gravitybox have to hide the data transfer on the status bar when there is less than a user set rate.

Secondly, either changing the navigation bar height options to lists of common dpi settings or doing what Gravitybox does and adding a couple of arrow buttons to make fine tuning it easier.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alx31:
Hum why don't you use gravity box then? i am not the head dev of this rom, its complicated to add features, especially these times, because lp code still young and LOT of bugz/merge conflicts popping out when adding them, wich means lot of work needed behind the scene to make something not weak.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nameless One:
If Xposed Framework, which Gravitybox relies on, was compatible with Lollipop I would already be using it, I'm neither that lazy nor that stupid. Several of the things that Gravitybox does have been showing up in the various CM12 based ROMs, although not all in the one ROM unfortunately, CandyRom5 happens to be the current best.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d10brp:
Hi, I followed the instructions to get Candy installed the other day but just couldn't get it to work. Flashing boot.img from the zip put Cyanogen recovery on my phone which is useless. I could get the ROM installed but not the GAPPS. After booting up and using abd to install TWRP v2.8.0.1 I managed to get GAPPS flashed but when I booted up I got into a setup wizard FC loop.

The files I was trying to install are:

candy5-RC.v0.9.4-20150125-OFFICIAL-yuga.zip

Slim-Addons-normal_gapps.4.4.4.build.9-20150107.zip

The recovery I am using worked fine for installing Resurrection Remix (and GAPPS) so I'm guessing that isn't the problem.

Could the issue be that I booted up without GAPPS (to get the recovery installed through adb) and then installed GAPPS? If so, is the boot.img step essential or can I skip it so I get to keep TWRP?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nameless One:
I think that you should flash both the ROM and gapps with the same recovery, whichever one you choose, I have the twrp recovery from the third post in Infected_'s CM12 thread flashed to FOTAKernel and I ignore the instructions to flash a boot.img that some threads have before flashing the ROM. I haven't had any problem with any of the ROMs I've installed.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alx31:
Don't try to make me tell things i didn't said nor thinking. I never said you're lazy or stupid.

i was simply asking.

I never used gravitybox so i don't know how it works. I know xposed won't work as dalvik machine is no longer used on lp roms.

tell me wich roms have the features you need, i will take a look on their gerrit if i can find something interesting to merge ...im not promising anything ;)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nameless One:
My apologies, from where I am I thought I detected some edginess, some devs seem rather aggressive. Given the number of people asking for ETAs or asking questions that were answered on the previous page etc I can't say I blame them.

As for the things I'd like to see, there is no rush, I flashed just about every latest ROM last night but I cannot remember exactly which had what and I may hold off for a day or three before my next binge flashing session. One thing I am curious to know is how deep into the ROM the things in the custom settings that the ROMs provide (such as navigation bar resize and the data monitor in the status bar) go, are they settings/features that could be implemented on LP as an app without using custom frameworks?

I was thinking last night about putting it up as a suggestion in the appropriate forum for anyone looking for a project to get them started in Android programming.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alx31:
Well its a bit more complicated than just an "app"

People contributing by pushing "pieces" of code that we can merge to our code, and then fixes merges derps if some pop out. Means someone has to write whole sequences and pushed it publically.

Because yes, some stupid devs still don't understand the main linux/android idea wich is share/open sources...i won't name these popular roms, becoming "money donations" freaks (reason why some functions are closed sources)...since money coming into android world, things getting rotten.

Well anyways, all that to say functions as navbar settings and data monitoring are not apps, but lines of code (c/c++/c#/java) and not a lot of dudes "really" coding...at Validus squad only 2 guyz and im not one of them lolz.

On all roms, its all the same moreless, 10/15 people making roms for different devices and only 2/3 really coding as programmers, all others we building off these sources and using these lines of codes "commits" pushed into gerrit or github.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nameless One:
Validus has the setting to allow the status bar data monitor to auto hide below a user selected threshold.

I need help

The rom is great no bug in rom but

How I enable mobile data to get 3g 4g?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alx31:
So then maybe get on Candy G+ community and make a feature request, i'm not owner on these repositories; so i can't add features and i don't feel like to crush my head to do it locally, because each time i will sync up my sources; i'll loose changes.

Sorry about that.

by pressing the data button i guess... into settings/plusmobile network you will find what you need.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nameless One:
I've found the community and joined, I may put in a request at some stage, it isn't that urgent. Once it is set it's not that important, but having just adjusted it to test the navbar icon size in landscape issue someone else posted it is fiddly to use repeatedly.

A couple of observations I've had over the last several days,

1. Sometimes when swiping the bottom app away in recent apps it will leave the title bar behind hovering over whatever fills the space.

2. Sometimes when tapping the recent apps button it will bring up recent apps and then almost immediately go back to what I was using before I tapped and I have to tap again, this seems to mostly happen with the settings app.

Now if I could just find an app that would magically fix my broken GPS (a main circuit board problem by the look of it) things would just about be perfect.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nameless One:
I presume that the only way to update the theme app/engine is to flash a ROM that has the updated version in it?

I just noticed on my tablet that I flashed a new ROM on that the theme app shows more things that can be disabled in a theme such as custom navbar buttons which is nice. I tried pulling stuff across to my phone but no success.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alx31:
Indeed i need to make a new build, and you'll get the "new" theme engine.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nameless One:
Any gapps for Android 5.0.x+ should work, I have used the modular full from here:

http://xdaforums.com/paranoid-android/general/gapps-official-to-date-pa-google-apps-t2943900

with a config file to leave out the things I don't want (wouldn't flash on my current non-CandyRom setup though), failing that then there are a number of other gapps out there including one from Slimrom.

That link is quite a bit to read, providing a number of different gapps configs, but it should be easy enough to pick what you want off the comparison chart.

I have not seen or heard what the micro usb will be used for on the NP....
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mi|enko:
The ADT-1 has a USB port and all it can be used for is a keyboard/mouse currently. I'd kill for OTG support. That said though, the ADT-1 also comes with a splitter for the power that adds an additional USB port to connect to your computer to access it via the SDK. So, it could be very much the same setup, or something completely different.

Battery life is related to usage patterns, short of underclocking; no app can help you there. Turn off WiFi, Bluetooth, NFC and all crap you don't need, and turn them on ony when you need them. Change your screen timeout, so it turns off quicker when you put it away.
