You can use any sound mod for resolve problems ;) I heard any people who got fixed with using any sound mod like coffee black
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] BaCKo85:
yes.thanks. can you give me a link for this mod ?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] inamul:
For me there was no trouble with the walkman or youtube. Everything went smoothly. Maybe you need to re-install stock rom 157, root, install dual recovery, and flash this rom
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] HotA3:
Thanks

Downloading and trying it out now. Thanks alot!!
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] MustaqAhmed:
Have u included DLNA fix in v4.5?..... what did u do with stock stereo mod in v4.5?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] dstrikersZ1:
Yes, i included. Doggy :D
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] kristijan15:
I fixed that already, I will upload the fix later this afternoon as I am kinda short with time

After reboot my whatsapp is broken and i need to restore the backup :(
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] warboss:
i know that stupid bug. just restart the phone several times and i works without restoring the backup ;) I got that problem with alot of roms..... -_-
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] shucrut:
I tried this rom once and i liked it, but im with stock now. Do you guys know if smart backlight is actually working and how to use it? When i tried i could not see it working, i looked to the screen but it still turned off. Congratz for the rom. For uktra stamina mode we need custom kernel?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] dstrikersZ1:
if you need custom kernel, needs unlock bootloader
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] mikailmohammed:
Do i have to install stock .157? Or can i just flash zip coming from .108?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] dstrikersZ1:

Plan to work for upcoming update again

Guys, I'm starting to work for upcoming update again. There's one of things that I had done until now.

First, I found bug with volume sound is very louder when I used headset. And, I'm decided to revert 30 steps volume into 15 steps volume and I changed mixer_paths.xml with stock volume value and It's worked and as medium

So, next project......
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Vatron11:
i installed it on 108 and it works just fine.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Chocolatetrain:
Where's the 30 step volume mod, because I like it and I'll keep it for the next update, is it the services.jar or framework-res.apk? Good job on the rom btw :good:
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] coffee black:
Just like the previous versions, the headset works fine with the music app. But phone calls are super loud in the left earpiece. I flashed the YKG stereo mod v15 and now the sound is balanced in both earpieces.

Any luck with the Shut down apps?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] CoMma15:
more free ram

I am using z1 compact.I have flashed your rom.I think it's owesome.But it's only 300-400 ram when I am using several apps.I hope you can help z1 compact to get more.free ran
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] slayer2333:
Hi Distriker,

Again thank you very much for the continuous work and the wonderful packages you made so far. If i can add my 50 cents to this, for the upcoming updates can you please make a flashable patch to fix only the remaining issues instead of another full ROM ? I must admit that doing a full wipe, reinstalling all the apps and restoring their data for every new ROM is really time consuming and required 2 full cycles of battery everytime (mostly to setup the email and re-download all the mails).

Thank you in advance.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] IgorEisberg:
Good point. You can also do a Titanium Backup for you apps and app-data like I do.

Hello can anyone help me? In which file is the command "rm -rf /dev/log/main" set? I try to use Catlog but it don't work.

hi, i've tried your 4.2 and 4.5 rom ; the icon in statut bar stay on stamina mode (with the +)...even if i am on normal mode...it's always the same icon... is there a solution?

[MENTION=6122975]dstrikersZ1[/MENTION] your Rom is great. Everything is ok but when i install rom and use it few hours Ultra Stamina works correctly. When activate mode homescreen change to USM home. Now when i activate USM nothing happens. Homescreen stay normally.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] tofclaire:
Nobody has this issue ?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] sq1pl:
I have the same issue...

[Xperia Z1 Android Development] dstrikersZ1:
Why ? I don't have a problem with theme.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Rojikaft:
I don't know :( maybe reflash
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] coffee black:
I have the exact opposite. I can activate Ultra Stamina Mode, but when I deactivate it, my homescreen still looks like Ultra Stamina Mode but all my icons are missing in the app drawer.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] dstrikersZ1:
You'd better, restart your phone first after you activated ultra stamina
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] coffee black:
Thanks for reminding me. :)

I don't understand why you say "you must calm down" when we ask a question about a bug ? :confused:
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] dstrikersZ1:
Oh sorry. I mean ask to you, I'll fix it.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] inamul:
No, you do not need to fix it. We just need to open the notification bar, refer to the quick settings, edit and enter stamina + battery icon, and disable it. And the problem is finished.

Do I need the camera fix in the 4.5 rom, what does the camera fix do?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] NiM72NiK:
Your rom is great and veryyyyyyyyyy battery friendly! but can you give a update package for every version? its too hard to backup everything and reinstall them each time for installing the new version..
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] IgorEisberg:
No no no, all you had to do is change 2 values in "mixer_paths.xml".

to

Only change the marked value to decrease headphone sound volume. IN 4.5 it's 89 which is headphone-damaging, even high quality headphones like mine. 84 is perfect.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Hellspawm:
seriously man, to fix a bug is not a blink of an eye, it depends on the free time first because in life we have other priorities we are not just standing on XDA to wait to fix bugs, more than that is almost Christmas so everyone of us we prepare for a party or whatever, and if you reported that bug and he say calm down ...it means he will fix it....just be patient ! Thanks for understanding!

Cheers!
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] FahmyAbou:
You don't have to. Just push the rom to your phone, wipe dalvik cache and cache and install the rom. After installation wipe the cache again. Your data won't be lost and you don't have to backup, except if you're not sure if the rom will boot.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] tofclaire:
thanks for your comment but i know that ... :rolleyes:

i've just asked a question (if someone has the same issue). I wasn't pressed and i didn't expect a quick fix. I think it was a misunderstanding with him on english vocabulary ;)

All is ok.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] dstrikersZ1:
I'm saying you must do backup. Better via recovery is better ;)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] tania247260:
I have been using this rom and it is really very nice and battery friendly.I have one problem that is stamina toggle does not change the stamina mode inside the settings.Kindly see on my screenshot.stamina toggle on but stamina mode showing off,another screen shot stamina toggle off but stamina mode on setting on.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] kalios:
Even for installing rom for 1st time??
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] FahmyAbou:
No if you are coming from another rom, you have to make sure that you backup your data + system, just in case anything happens. You must also factory reset the device before you install the rom.

It's safe to have a backup and I would recommend it to everyone. But I didn't do one when updated from 3.5 to 4.5 as I was pretty sure that it would go flawlessly.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] dstrikersZ1:
did you try ?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] kalios:
Thanks for the enlightment [MENTION=5638318]FahmyAbou[/MENTION]

Upcoming update 4.7 on the horizon and will testing

Guys, I'm starting to test upcoming update 4.7 which it will be on the horizon :):)

I can work completely and this is my temporary changelog :

- Updated superuser

- Stock phonebook

- Walkman app from version 3.5

- Fixed headphones volume louder bug

- Launcher redraw fix tweak

- Improved SD Card speed tweak

- Improved VM management tweak

And...I'll investigating what should I change for upcoming updates, and tomorrow, Christmas will come in my country.

I'm wish for you all.

Merry Christmas and during the next year:):)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] FahmyAbou:
I think you should reduce the update packages as it is not comfortable to download approx. 600 MB and update the Rom every three days. It is just a suggestion to release an update every two to three weeks (or a monthly release) but the updates would be major ones with more features and you would have more time to fix the bugs. As I said it's just a suggestion but the choice is yours.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] IgorEisberg:
Of course! The volume was too loud and that's how I always modify the volume limit.

(This is also how you modify the stock sound's volume)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] dstrikersZ1:
Guys, I have a new regulation for unlocked bootloader.

[Xperia Z1 Android Development] dstrikersZ1:

You must lock your bootloader and try to install on locked bootloader

Using your rom on locked bootloader is working good.. But with unlocked bootloader i think there's a problem.. Can't give you a logcat since i cant boot myphone after flashing the rom on unlocked bootloader i have to flash to stock kernel and lock my BL just to make it boot again normaly..

boots, everything works fine for about 15 seconds, then it just goes bonkers

This is what happens repeatedly at the end.... but i would think it has to do with soemthing higher up. lots of packages appear to be dying

bute other folks are fine with that Z3 home.

issues seems to be UB > kernel > rom

Overview for upcoming updates 4.7

Guys, I'm overviewing best performance setttings for upcoming 4.7. Battery will better and I didn't get redraw until now.

So, I adjusted volume mixer with stock ROM value by myself and I didn't have a problem because I fixed.

And, I tested my locked BL device with benchmark and I got score 37000 up and how is it ?

Keep HPHL Volume and HPHR Volume values on 20, not 15. Stock 15 is too low for mid to high quality headphones.

RX1/RX2 Digital Volume at 82 is fine, but 84 is more optimal, but not higher than that (higher will cause distortion even with quality headphones)

Only 37500?? Seriously? How about almost 39000?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] dstrikersZ1:

[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Fidelator:
Guys, how much does the camera improve? I'm on stock and I'm not happy with the color output (washed out) and white balance in many situations, colors seem washed out most of the time and I rarely get the right wb under artificial lights, I'm wondering if this will help? Also, how does the camera hardware differ from our device to the Z2 and the hw in the Z3? Do we have the same sensor and optics? I Just got the Z1
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] croash:
Although there are some additional features like 4k movies, the photo quality of the camera doesn't improve with these roms.

I'm disappointed in general with the Z1 camera images, so don't get your hopes up by changing roms.

Camera hardware is basically the same, I'm waiting for lollipop from Sony, which will hopefully have raw image output, but whether that will give us better images than now, I'm not too optimistic.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] dstrikersZ1:
Maybe, I'll improve camera quality in build.prop
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] croash:
I'm not expecting you to produce miracles with the camera. Many others have tried as well.

I'm just enjoying your roms. Give me good performance, great battery, and no problems. I love your work.

Damn, same hardware yet the Z2 gets far better results, I'm guessing Sony removes its processing software after people unlock the BL on the Z2, otherwise someone would have been able to port it, right?

Lollipop will be welcome, manual mode on our app sucks, we can't control contrast, saturation or sharpness as you'd expect from a mode named manual

Some problems

Hi dude. I've something to tell about your rom.

When i volume up, it eventually goes to volume zero with some noises.

I'm not that much care about this problem but it causes reboot sometimes.

This problem is only on dec-22 ver,never happened on previous ver

Another problem is touch sensivity. I don't know this rom have some changes with sensitivity but i think it is slower than original 157 firm.

Yes I think it can be removed, also because if new app is released you can find it here on cross dev section :D

What about debloat rom a little bit? Delete wallpapers, media sounds (you can make a flashable zip for them) or add new wallpapers :D

Just suggestions bro, because you are already doing a good job.

This rom is just amazaing. But just a thought, Can't you just update these update at flashable zip? because it gets difficult to download 600 mb rom everytime. Moreover I think these changes dont effect all the apk's you can include the changes and the updated apk's in the flashable zip.
