Why would you flash kitkat kernel on L?

If you can't install anything with recovery just use fastboot.

[Sony Xperia L] pestycyd:
1. Flash Stock Rom (for me it was C2105 FW release : 15.3.A.1.14. Customization : PL through fastboot (Flashtool program))

Before :

Download https://www.dropbox.com/s/mzdyhjw52pwlw0z/boot.img?dl=0 (for me the only boot.img that works)

Download http://download.chainfire.eu/589/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.16.zip

Dwonload https://s.basketbuild.com/filedl/gapps?dl=gapps-lp-20141109-signed.zip

Copy the files to your device (it can be on your removable Sd card but i've put it in my device because i couldn't install it from SD card)

2. From Flashtool fastboot toolbox i'm taking the "select kernel to flash" option, search for boot.img on your hdd from the link

3. Reboot device into system from the toolbox

4. Volume down when the led is pink ---> enter CWM

5. "Wipe data/factory reset", "wipe cache partition"

6. "install zip", choose from sdcard0, choose cm-12-20141114-UNOFFICIAL-taoshan.

7. "install zip", choose from sdcard0, choose gapps-lp-20141109-signed.

8. "install zip", choose from sdcard0, choose UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.16.

9. "Reboot System Now".

10. Wait about 10 minutes and it'll boot to system.

It's 100% sure method if You're stuck :)

i'm trying to move some app to the internal sd storage but it always gives error message: "not enough storage space".

I've just run factory reset, clean installation, cleared up data+dalvik. Is that a ROM problem or is it more generic?

That is how I had flashed them the first time, flashed cm12, gapps and then thunderzap.Problem is, that most apps try to install in the system partition and give a error 'insufficient space' even though Data partition has 2 GB of memory. How do we force apps, even Google apps to install on Data partition?

"data partition" is not the mount point '/sdcard0'?

Since 0320 performance on stock kernel is amazing, while battery life is pretty decent too.

For me the only bug is video low fps and FM sound.

Nice job with this rom, Varun.

(I hope camera2 api will be also possible someday, but image quality is quite good already.)
[Sony Xperia L] lleuname:
Let me see if I got it right:

I'm with 02.26 version. Trying to upgrade to 03.03 version(that seems the most stable until now)

But I have the cyanogenmod recovery. Then, I can't flash the rom and gapps with it, right?

Is there any way to install twrp without a PC(flashtool)?

I don't have access to one right now.

Please, feel free to correct me and thanks!

you can download the rom without using the 'OTA' system, and manually install the rom, the gapps and the Tz 4.14 without restart after each zip flash. is possible?

[Sony Xperia L] MrBaker:
This is the correct answer:

I'l break it down in steps:

1 - Clean install ROM

2 - Install PA Gapps Modular Full or Stock - You can write a config file to exclude apps you won't use - read their post!

3 (optional) - Install TZ

4 - Enjoy Gapps and so so much free storage

5 - NEVER update Gapps from the Play Store - if you get prompted to update, go check the PA Gapps post for the newest version

6 - When there is a new version of PA Gapps, flash their zip - no need to clean install for updates

You will NOT have free space if and only if you update Google apps from the Play Store - patience is key here.
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
yes like it stands

good Update !

iam using 3 march version , is there any good one after that released ? i donot want setup any new updates unless it is stable with no issues

if there is any one up and good pls tell me which one is it
[Sony Xperia L] Psadim:
ι m using 0321 with t.z .14 and flashed the fix for sound and radio. For 2 days phone run pretty well, never better. (Sio I/o scheduler, on demand all the others). Battery is good.

The only bug is that if you move the apps to sdcard they dissappear from the home screen and you have to put them back again, something that happens in all builds even in 3rd march you are using.
[Sony Xperia L] khronos_one:
you know is a good rom only if you install it. However, Nightlies are NOT for daily use, so, why ask? wait a "stable" branch. wait a milestone. use 4.4.

or try the blackbox of the new one, and share with us if is good.

ps.

anyone knows a 3rd parties Camera with working HDR, or is a driver thing in cm12 that actually prevents "all" cameras to use c2015 Hdr from work?

[Sony Xperia L] khronos_one:
yes. but you cant guarantee that is very stable in all parts. that user would a "very stable and without bugs rom", cm12 actually is not.

Dude!!! ROM(E) wasn't built in a day.

It's all beta ROMs and nightlies which gradually develop all features and bug-free ROM.

So it will get there...being "very stable in all parts". Meanwhile other users can test and report bugs. :)

Okay thanks but ive two questions:

1. We can only update with same package? For eg ive full modular installed currently, i just have to download its newest version again and flash it, itll be replace the previous version automatically?

2. Can i install any package to replace my current package. I want to replace my full modular with mini modular, is it possible with a dirty install?
[Sony Xperia L] MrBaker:
I believe if you use a smaller package, it well leave the apps it doesn't include as they are, but I'm not sure.

You should read the PA Gapps post in full. Their FAQ and advanced instructions are very good. This has rally left the scope of this ROM.

Good luck.

All thanks for Cyanogenmod team ............. but

first : I have some questions

(((( WHY )))) every new nightly version come with bugs were not in the previous one ? :p

(((( When )))) cyanogenmod team will come with stable version ? :confused:

second : I believe Cyanogenmod team work so hard to give us free newest version with strong potential for our devices that our manufacturer stop support update .... so more than thanks to them >>> but they are must to open connection with us and read our posts .

I know the one of developers said " I'm closely monitoring the Q/A and every reported issue is taken into consideration even if I don't respond. " but I don't think so , Because I follow every post in CM12 Nightlies Changelog - Taoshan >>> and never seen any edit about bugs we were post here " essential bugs " :) special about sound bugs

last thing : unfortunately to not see stable version for any device in download page

thanks for all

battery life so bad

cyanogenmod recovery still can not flash any zip file

ringtone did not change with stock cm recovery

ringtone , music and call in speaker still low

camera HDR still stuck

video camera is very bad

fx give low sound more than it is
[Sony Xperia L] Joel16:
We are well aware of the bugs. Just so you know varun doesn't owe you guys anything. He'll work on fixing the bugs when he decides to. Complaining about bugs isn't gonna do anything, unless you provide a logcat. I'm not saying this only for you, but this goes out to anyone who constantly complains about bugs. These are nightly builds, they are PRONE to have bugs in them whether you like it or not. You either wait for a milestone build, or deal with them.

[MENTION=4309448]varun.chitre15[/MENTION] here are the two files "audio.primary.default.so" and "audio.primary.msm8960.so" that you had requested. They are from 2/26 beta 7. These files have been confirmed to fix the no sound issue in the FM radio app. Download (thank [MENTION=5678967]agentskywalker[/MENTION], not me)

And also here's the modified snd_soc_msm_Sitar, from [MENTION=5682673]nishuksd[/MENTION] which fixes the issue with the low sound after 3/03 nightly. Download

Please merge these into the latest nightlies. They have been confirmed fixing the issues stated above. This isn't just a +1 from me, but also by other members. You can navigate a few pages back to see the confirmations, thank you.

Dude !!! You got some serious problem. Which build you are in?

Nope. FM works on loudspeaker. It silences for about 2 seconds, but comes back on through the speaker.

How can i open Link2sd 2nd partition on pc? When i connect my phone to pc i can only see Internal storage and sd card storage
[Sony Xperia L] Oscarm99:
As far as I know the pc only detects 1 partition of the SD and windows is not compatible with ext format.

Maybe there is some programs that allow you to do that but I don't know them. Hope I helped you
[Sony Xperia L] asad.kazmi7:
But i use fat32 for my 2nd partition
[Sony Xperia L] Oscarm99:
I think windows can only mount the first partition of flash drives
[Sony Xperia L] Agent_fabulous:
Wait, it's possible to use Fat32 for Link2SD? :confused: I thought it was just ext partitions.

http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html

This program can see all partitions irrespective of it's support. Find out what type of partition it is and try to get drivers for unsupported ones. Try inserting the SDCard with a card reader directly.

Honestly, I've never tried partitioning on my Xperia as I never felt the need to. Just Move to SDCard in app info works well. (And, DS App2SD too.)

No, windows can mount all partitions of flash drives. I've tested it with my Galaxy Y and HTC Wildfire. However, I may be wrong regarding the Xperia as it mounts the Internal storage too.

---------- Post added at 03:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:41 PM ----------

@agentskywalker, I seem to have found what's causing the issue. My sister, who used this phone before had the same problem earlier on Stock. It's because of the 10400 mAh Mi Powerbank. It somehow makes the phone think it has more charge than it actually does. So, the phone skipped battery levels and Dies before 1% (Auto Shutdown.) Thus, avoid using powerbanks with this device. The OnePlus One shows the correct level and barely charges with the powerbank. Hence, showing that the powerbank is sending less power than the phone thinks.

[Sony Xperia L] Captain_Hungary:
Running it for 3 hours. It seems to be fine.
[Sony Xperia L] Agent_fabulous:
Nope. Its a great battery backup. Of doesn't mess up the battery, but gives false readings. Just charge your phone when it dies itself with the charger when you can and It'll come back to normal. Not a big issue. Just know your phone can die unexpectedly or skip levels. Or, charge a little more even after it has reached 100%. It'll be just fine. I still use the power bank.

Thanks for the confirmation.

And I agree. Recharging 2-3 cycles would be a great backup. Just watch out for the unexpected. :p

A weird thing just happened

I was using my CPU at 1242Mhz with TZC. When I checked the max runtime CPU in CPUZ then the Core1 was going upto 1026 Mhz only.

Fixed clock at 1242 Mhz with TSM and then also Core1 goes upto 1026 Mhz.

Core0 reaches to 1242 Mhz in both the above cases.

It happened to me in 3/19 and 3/24 builds. Anyone else facing this issue ???

To confirm this, I installed Kernel Tuner and it has individual cores clock settings. There it shows clearly that Core0's max freq is 1242 and Core1's max freq is 1026. In KT I could set both the core's freq to 1242 Mhz.

Is this a known issue/they are supposed to be like that ? Or is this happening only to me. :(
[Sony Xperia L] Agent_fabulous:
Well, all you need is the old zip you flashed on the phone and an internet connection. Select the old zip in cyandelta, it'll verify it and it'll download delta files that basically update the zip to the latest one. This way, you don't need to download the whole thing over and over again. Then headover to settings, and choose install additional zip after ROM 1 and select the fix for Radio. Similarly, select zips for anything you may install over the Rom. (I need just FM and xposed, Lol) Note, you don't need to select gapps. Gapps are retained. Do make sure to perform a soft reboot after the update finishes and your lock screen shows up. Else, many apps may not work properly.

innocent question ................

Why some issus that repaired in old nightly back again in newest one ?

and I need advice about recovery I have to use

i am using TWRP_v2.7.0.0 to clean rom ... after that i am flashing tz 14 and reboot to tz 14 to flash newest nightly , after flash cm12 rom ... i flash tz 14 again an reboot to system

am i in right street or any advice to update rom ?

sorry for my bad English :D
[Sony Xperia L] Agent_fabulous:
Well, even I don't know that, but I do know, many files were changed as soon as it entered the nightlies and that kinda screwed some things up. However, it didn't take long for some of us to figure a few things out. Don't worry about that. Everything will be soon fixed. ;)

About the recovery,TZ has it's own recovery - That is Philz CWM. However, this recovery is provided by the kernel and OTA updates will replace it with Cyanogen Recovery, which is, to me at least, good for nothing. You didn't need to go through all that. If you had TWRP already running, just flash CM12 followed by TZ. Also, if you don't wanna lose Philz CWM during updates, install the recovery to the FOTA Partition. You can just search this thread. Thank [MENTION=6248658]SdtBarbarossa[/MENTION] for the instructions and recovery. :) Btw, TWRP in the FOTA partition just didn't work. I advice you to use Philz.

[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
so gow to explain this....

look at changelocks:

http://www.cmxlog.com/12/taoshan/

GREEN ones are changes made by CM team

RED ones are changes by varun

so the sourcecode of full rom is parted into 2 things:

1. the cyanogen code part

2. the device specific part

nightlys come every day... and if cm team making a change for every phone that can break something on our device .... then varun have to fix it...

and now imagine you would have to fix every bug cm team causes... thats hard.... and thats why varun dont clear every nightly.... nightlys are testbuilds and you have to know that ... updating is only recommen if you really want to test ...or if there is a new cm feature you want ...

so if you dont like bugs go to some cm nightly that is lowest buggy eg 3.3... and update if varun brings a milestone ...
