Thanks, I'm running Validus since before your last post, seems to be running perfect. Nova launcher didn't give me the drawer option that I wanted but I prefer the ui a lot more. The proximity sensor issue is actually a fault on my device, tested it in the service menu on stock fw. So this option is essential for me unless I can disable the sensor somehow. Could you not just somehow bring the "Buttons" customisations from RR and add them to the menu after "Odds and Ends" in "The Void"? Is this possible?

How I got on to validus was flashing stock .283 and then hodor kernel. The twrp with this kernel was able to install everything without errors...

I admit, I'm a total noob. I read for hours and rush in with a plan that probably won't work.

Thanks for all your help though.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alx31:
NP yeah sometimes it goes thru but assume u have been lucky to not face error status7 while flashing...

Validus is being worked hard...features are implemented everyday but we have to test as some making rom unstable....be patient its coming
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shro:
I will be very patient, I respect that developing these builds take time, all I'm saying is these options, or the power button to end call function at least, in the next build, I personally would be very grateful.

I found a small edit for build.prop to disable the sensor but it hasn't worked as far as I can tell but I assume it doesn't work on custom or probably 5.0

I have some bugs to report on the 2-02-2015 build.

>the video recording isn't working. I can start it, but after I press stop, the phone restarts.

>sometimes the call UI stops working. This happens when I make a call or receive one. The call doesn't stop, but even if the other person hangs up, I still see in the notification bar call in progress.

>the recents button is still a little buggy on some apps (chrome and gmail especially). Also you must press the home button two times to return from the recents panel back to desktop.

>weak wi-fi signal. compared to the previous builds my signal is weaker. I have two bars at 3 meters from the router, and the router isn't blocked by a wall or anything else

Well that's all. Also it is possible to add Sweep2wake on this ROM?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shro:
Further to my proximity sensor issue, and requesting power to end call feature I've noticed this ROM has double-tap to wake, is it possible to enable this in calls?

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alx31:
most of these things are being working on...but about call bug it may caused by a restore of system apps or settings cuz i don't have this bug at all...

im not sure if what u asking if possible...and if it is, u have to find in wich rom this feature is present and i will check their sources.

nope, this is basically validus identity i won't change it, so unless u build it yourself, no im prolly sure its not possible.

what u mean? in all sony roms u press power+vol- and screenshot is took...
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shro:
Found out the part is really cheap and the repair is really easy when it comes to the proximity sensor, bundled with the headphones jack, which mine is a little crackly anyway and my rear glass needed replacing any way so I bought them both for just under £12 and my issues will be resolved. :)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PranavBijwe:
I'm not asking you to make any changes to the rom, my question was if I on my end can make the changes myself. Honestly you can't expect everyone to like the skulls on an operating system with such beautiful GUI.

Confuse

For KK rom, what is the different of these 2 roms?

- tesla-2.5-20141113-MILESTONE-yuga.zip

- VALIDUS-6.2_Yuga_build3.zip

Which 1 recommended? Thank~ :highfive:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PranavBijwe:
You are right, it is a system busy animation and after breaking my head on the phone, here is what I found out. Mind you, I'm using ES file explorer.

1. Go to system/framework

2. Long press framework-res.apk and click on the more button on bottom right hand corner

3. Click open

4. Go to res folder

5. Go to drawable-xxhdpi-v4 folder

Now the skulls animation is a set of 33 images (0-32) named busy_dlg_animation_x (where x is the number). Now I'm also assuming that there is an XML file associated with these images (correct me if I'm wrong). So to make changes on the USER end we will have to extract the contents of this apk file (I used ES File Explorer) make changes and somehow repack the apk and replace that apk every time we flash a new build (again correct me if I'm wrong). I'm guessing for the Devs its a one time change (Not that I'm telling you guys to change anything). This process seems kind of tedious to do for THE USER so only do it if you have some spare time (because I have no idea if there is actually an XML file associated with the images or android kind of magically makes the changes for you if the animation you want is less than 33 images).

P.s : Sorry for the wall of text.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alx31:
well really makes sense to me.

yeah u will need to decompile/recompile .apk each time, if u know a dev skilled at flashable zip, there's surely a way to make an easy flashable zip to replace with what u want.

from my side, lack of knowledge to do that, sorry.

I'm having trouble with having updating to latest build. I was on 02/07 till last night, tried flashing included boot.img (fastboot flash boot boot.img) rebooting device into recovery mode just shows an orangeish LED and blank screen, then no LED, flashed TWRP (2.4.8.1) from their own zip and this boots, tried installing latest build 02/17 and I'm getting serious issues with my calls. If someone calls me, my screen is dead, and (I'm quite sure, because I replaced it.) my proximity sensor still seems to be inactive. No interactivity from the screen when pulling it from my face. - I made a CLEAN install too but I'm sensing something is wrong.

My Recovery issues have been resolved by carefully reading another thread in this forum created shortly after my post, and it seems my Proximity sensor/call issues are also resolved after cleaning behind the digitizer and re gluing since replacing the sensor/headphones jack piece inside the device.
