ok guys need some help here.

I was on 4.3 flashed 4.4.4 as mentioned by the OP

flashed .230 kernel to flash recovery and all went well.

flashed existenz ultimate 3.0 which started giving a lot of force closes so decided to go back to the stock.

now whenever i tried to flash a stock tft it gives me a boot loop. first a lot of force close msgs and now just the boot screen and restarts.

tried flashing 4.3 and the result is same.

all i need now is to flash a clean stock tft. i'm with locked bootloader.

unlock bootloader can solve my problems?

need a genius answer please. waiting....
[Sony Xperia ZL] Arrowblue:
When you flashed .230 kernel to install recovery then after that you have to flash the latest kernel .283 kernel back using 283 ftf and flashtool and then install the rom.

bro did you check out the Encrypting issue?????

doei
[Sony Xperia ZL] jacktackle:
after using a half a dozen of xperia's this is the first one i'm facing problems.

guys all i need from you now is from here where to go??

i'm in bootloop.

flash 10.5.1.0.a.283 again? then the results will be the same. so what is the smartest advise for me now?

hope i get this thing fix today. is unlocking the bootloader will give me more chances? or that does not make a difference or shall i try flashing 4.2.2?

[Sony Xperia ZL] Arrowblue:
bro you are doing something wrong other wise it wont be in bootloop.Try flashing 4.4.2 ftf using flash tool or it might be that your .283 ftf is crupted? , There is no best advise there is just finding the problem and killing it :d

Eidt: when you flash 4.4.2 kernel to install recovery after that you open flashtool connect your device and choose .283 firmware and exclude every thing just install the kernel it should solve your problem i have just tested it now and than you can flash the rom.

Apart from the iR remote bug (hopefully will be fixed in the next OTA :)) found another "bug"

As You may notice ,The layout is not proper for the "myself" contact tile ..and I didn't have this in previous rom so nothing wrong with [MENTION=3989065]serajr[/MENTION] 's module ..hopefully you'll find the problem and fix It ;)

thanks again ?

[Sony Xperia ZL] Jaycel0820:

Hello niaboc79 I hope you are having a nice night.

First of all I'm very grateful for your very hard work, I'm sure you spent a lot of hours on this. I was coming from your past Rom eXistenZ 5.0.0 Ultra 4.3 Well my problem is that I think I selected Xperia Z instead of ZL at the end of Aroma Installer :( and when I rebooted my phone It didn't do anything, the screen was not even on, when I press the power button nothing happens, When I press the reset button a little vibration comes but nothing else happens :confused: I tried to flash official Sony's 4.4.4 10.5.1.A.0.283 with flashtool but the phone is not recognised in Flashmode :(:(:(:(:(

Please help me, I'm so desperated and sad:crying: I know it's not your fault, it was absolutely mine, just tell me if it has a solution or not and if you know what to do please please please help me:(

Hello

I am unable to update my ZL 6506 to .283 version. Right now I am on .230 version. Can I falsh this rom on top of .230 since there is no requirements.

"Contributors

niaboc79

ROM OS Version: 4.4.x KitKat

ROM Kernel: Linux 3.4.x

ROM Firmware Required: None

Based On: Stock"

Thanks for any suggestions.
[Sony Xperia ZL] kt-Froggy:
I have also been thinking about flashing this ROM (my C6506 was on .230, too)... But I do have another suggestion for you, which is an offtopic in this thread. Will send you a PM shortly.
[Sony Xperia ZL] Rumman Shaikh:
That's called offline charging ?

And ,Yes the screen doesn't turn off while offline charging

To fix this :

Place this in system/bin with permission: 0755 and reboot ;)

Hopefully [MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION] will fix this for all in the next OTA :)
[Sony Xperia ZL] RyomaEchizen:
Thanks :) But.. how can i guide to convert 0755 into letters? :p (RW- ,RX, R- etc...)
[Sony Xperia ZL] kt-Froggy:
rwx r-x r-x :)
[Sony Xperia ZL] niaboc79:
Don't do that or you will loose recovery.

Rename that file to chargemon.stock before to paste it in system/bin
[Sony Xperia ZL] Rumman Shaikh:
I've done that and still have a working recovery :P

Btw, There's already a chargemon.stock in system/bin.
[Sony Xperia ZL] niaboc79:
So the recovery won't work properly.

Chargemon.stock is in fact the stock Chargemon renamed since Chargemon is used by the recovery.

Anyway, do what you want, I will do a proper fix in next OTA.

Can I flash lighting kernel with this rom? I know I need a unlocked bootloader
[Sony Xperia ZL] NamenIos:
This is very different from stock .283 are you sure it's safe (it tinkers with thermal safety values, right?)

r=4; w=2; x=1. Just add those.

if this kernel support Android 4.4.4 then yes. you can use any kernel you like.

Brightness Issue

Flashed Ultimate 3.0.0 on unlocked C6506 coming from stock .283 and during boot the brightness is fine but is very dim when finished. Setting at full brightness and with "adapt to lighting conditions" checked or unchecked, it stays dim. I would very much prefer not having to wipe data. Any idea for fix?

Thanks.
[Sony Xperia ZL] Arrowblue:
i think it also the same on Sony Stock rom light goes dim when starting the phone so i dont think its an option to work with.

I'm using the qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 edit build.prop option to remove the navigation bar. (using LMT PIE instead)

Would you be able to have a look at this too ?

Thanks alot.

Try to set a value of 0,1dpi instead of 0.0

Decompile android-res.apk in vendor/overlay and adapt values.
[Sony Xperia ZL] NamenIos:
Can anyone check if both values in /sys/bus/i2c/devices/0-0036/leds/lm3533-lcd-bl-1/brightness and /sys/bus/i2c/devices/0-0036/leds/lm3533-lcd-bl-2/brightness get probably set? They should be the same or one value is one less than the other. On max brightness it should be 255 on min ~115-150.

"chargemon(.stock)" has to be from the ZL, offline charging leaves the backlight on.

Not really a bug, but taping on the clock in the existenz widget doesn't open the alarms etc. unlike the stock widget.

also even if i choose image enhancment off , the movies are in BE mode or xreality mode i dont know what is working, so for my question does braviaengine or xreality automatically on and cannot be turned off when watching movies using default movie apps?

I didnt say its bug i just want to know if it is normal in stockrom when you flash the supervividmod or just in this rom?

[Sony Xperia ZL] armedzerox:
I like it

go away negativityyyyy. Hey i know this rom is not perfect. But i like it. And i will use it as my daily use. Don't worry,lets make it a perfect rom. I really hope there will be updates. Peace! :):)
[Sony Xperia ZL] Rajeev:
Not like that bro. I can clearly see different in movies in my XZ. With both xrea and super vivi... And also i can see different after it turns off. Don't what happened with ur side. Try to play any high quality videos. I am watching movies with around 1.4 gb per size.. Original BRRIP. So try some videos like that.. Hope this help
[Sony Xperia ZL] NamenIos:
This is caused by sysmon.cfg. They differ in the XZ and XZL and the Rom does not account for that. I actually think using the Rom in high performance and high temperature environments is not safe for the XZL (and probably even more so for the XZ). From my understanding the temperature of "bl_therm" and "batt_therm" is completely ignored in this Rom unlike in stock. So if the backlight or the battery reach critical temperatures nothing is done, this reminds me of exploding batteries in bed. If you want to compare: stock sysmon.cfg. Is this observation right [MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION]? If tsens_tz_sensor[0-6] is mapped to batt_therm you still have to change 1200 as threshold to stock value (800). Is there any reason why you used such a different sysmon.cfg? Has anyone tested if the stock sysmon.cfg works with this rom (especially with the camera)?
[Sony Xperia ZL] demonicangell™:
damn ..

thanks for the explanation :)

yeah the phone heats up .. i can try if the stock one works . although let's wait for a reply from him about it
