Did you flash userdata and cache? Userdata will wipe everything upon flashing, so no need to wipe it otherwise.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Miustone:
where can i find it? i can only download system.img and boot.img from Mega :rolleyes:

EDIT:Argh! Missed the common-files folder :D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
Check the folder "Common files". Android L -> Togari (ZU) -> Common-files (at MEGA). Can't link it since Mega is stupid.

And then you just "flash cache cache.img" and "flash userdata userdata.img".
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Triflot:
In the "common-files" sub-folder. :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Miustone:
I'm out of thanks for today, but thanks!

It is rooted, "gapped" and it's booting :good::angel:

Signing up now ... So smooth :eek: The Brightness is Ultra low ... i can see the the led's under the panel:silly:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Saatvik Shukla:
I dont really understand the point of duplicate threads here, when both are at almost same status?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] krabappel2548:
Yeah, sorry I just uploaded all builds I had. I'll be working on GPS tomorrow. You got any luck with mobile data or the microphone?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
It's probably best since you two work at different speeds, so you can push out updates in your thread, and Krabappel can do it here. If there are any strange bugs or something in one of his builds, we won't need to clog up your thread with "crap" that doesn't concern you.

I will however say that it's already starting to get chaotic in here, with both threads. We should all cooperate towards one really good ROM, so maybe we could make a type of General Discussion thread for both Lollipop ROMs? And when you have an update, you publish it in your own thread? I'm just thinking :p
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Saatvik Shukla:
Microphone, works , if headset is connected.

Mic from headset works fine.

Mobile data ,no, nothing yet.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
Could you maybe use anything from 4.4.4? Like the GPe ROM or something (since it's AOSP)? Maybe some libs or something? No?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] madphone:
I'm really impressed, performance is already perfect.

SD Card isn't working here.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Tommy-Geenexus:
for mobile data we may need to patch the kernel with the latest net updates for hammerhead l.

Only wlan related, wont do anything.

On the XZ we needed that too, so it may work here.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] atrix2:
Screen brightness too dim and flickering all the time,with gpe kernel brightness fixed but stuck at google logo.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] aniket_:
SD Card is working for me here .I can see my files in file Explorer.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
Yup, same here.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] qwasz123:
SD card is not working for me either.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
Hmm, maybe i'm mistaking this build with the other one, but SD works fine on one of them. If flashed both yesterday, and i can't say that i experienced anybissues with the SD. Weird.

[MENTION=4340984]krabappel2548[/MENTION]

I would like to request you to maybe merge both the lp threads or maybe perhaps something else.

Perhaps it is causing a lot confusion.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
Yeah, let's do it. Im jumping between threads now, and im already sick of it :mad:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] krabappel2548:
I'm at work now, will try to merge them/add you to this thread as mod once I'm home :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
We should probably merge your thread with Saatvik's thread since his thread is the biggest and oldest. It shouldn't make any difference either way, since both of you will have "mod powers" in that thread, but with Saatvik as the owner. Both ROM's are currently at the same stage, so we should all just make one unified build that functions as it should.

Only a suggestion, and we should let a mod decide what happens.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sm0L:
IMHO [MENTION=5416670]Saatvik Shukla[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4340984]krabappel2548[/MENTION] should talk each other and get to a conclusion of who has more time to spend on this project, the one who has more time should be the owner of the thread, and we are all here to help in the best possible way.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
Fair enough, but i believe both of them end up with the ability to edit the first post, making it a non-issue. We'll let a mod decide how this goes through though.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] madsponge26:
Good now were focusing in one lp thread.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] krabappel2548:
Mic is fixed in next build! Audio routing is no longer a problem now :)

EDIT: Recovery is also included and fully functional ;)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
YEEEEES! Only thing missing now is mobile data, and i'll use it as a daily driver. GPS and camera are not important to me personally. Also getting the screen flicker solved would be nice, but i'll that one as a bonus right now.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sm0L:
How can i root this or the other build?

I have hotbooted and installed latest BETA SuperSU ( http://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133 ) and it didn't work

Screen Flicker is the thing that stops me for using Lollipop right now, i can live without phone calls :D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] krabappel2548:
For root use the latest 2.16SuperSU package.

I think screen flickering might also be fixed ;) build is compiling now :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
OMG, I can't wait :laugh:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] krabappel2548:
Update is released :) Enjoy it!! :) sources are also fully up to date ;)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
Thank you! :laugh:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] theinspector:
Thanks a ton!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] krabappel2548:
Please let me know if recovery works :)

And sorry forgot to edit density again, will do it immediately tomorrow in my sources :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
What's the actual size of the system.img? 488478 KB? Just flashed it all, but no difference from 2.0.

Edit: Recovery works
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Miustone:
Recovery isn't working correct! TWRP v2.7.1.0 doesn't show any files on sdcard0 and sdcard1:rolleyes:

I can not install Gapps :(
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
Just sideload them (adb sideload). I just did.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] krabappel2548:
ok, you tested calling? I can't test at 2am so will have to wait until tomorrow for testing on my Z1, but my someone with a Z2 told me it works now :)

So is recovery working or not? One person says it is the other says it doesn't shows files..
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
No, it's also 02:37 (AM) here now, but i tried Google Now, which doesn't register any voice input. The screen flicker is also as bad as always, so i started to wonder if you uploaded the correct build :p

Recovery works, but i think there's an issue with SD card. I don't know since i didn't check. I used the sideload feature to flash gapps and root. Recovery itself works fine though.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] krabappel2548:
Ok, bit google voice search mic is a different issue maybe, will test myself tomorrow :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] aniket_:
Does anybody see the SONY logo in between transitions or during animations ? Freaks me out :P

Mic not working during call confirmed.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] qwasz123:
My phone is freezing sometimes when I try to unlock it, nothing works on the screen. Then if I turn the screen off and back on it will stay black.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] leonbarroso:

-Screen is too dim, and flickers

-no microphone on google search

-twrp works
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] HillyHd:
so does that mean that the mobile data is working?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] juggz143:
Errmm, Does what mean that the mobile data is working?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] tsiros:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] HillyHd:
Mic not working during call does this mean that the data is working just that you have to use loud speaker
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] theinspector:
What?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
No, mobile data does not work right now.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] qwasz123:
I believe there is a problem with Android wear or Bluetooth in general with this build. My moto 36p constantly disconnects and sometimes my phone hands and the screen turns black after u wake it from sleep.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
What exactly are you trying to do? Why are you using Flashtool?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] leonbarroso:
try reinstalling drivers on flashtool folder

verify the USB cable/in (I have an PC with defective USB - happens with old machines)

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
Oh, just install Minimal ADB and Fastboot (google it), and use a terminal to flash the ROM (follow the instructions from the first post). Flashtool is not to be used for flashing AOSP.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] qwasz123:
I'm having some weird errors with this rom, though I was originally unable to flash the cashe for this rom. It would throw back an error.

I keep getting disconnected from wifi and bluetooth, and sometimes when this happens and my phone's screen is turned off, the second I turn it on the touch input doesn't respond. If I turn the screen off and then on again it just shows a black screen, and if I long press the power button the "Power Off" dialogue appears.

If I turn the screen off and leave my phone for ten minutes it resumes working as normal, otherwise a powercycle is needed.

In addition my Moto 360 keeps disconnecting and it won't reconnect unless I reset my moto 360 and reboot my Xperia Z Ultra.

(I'm using this as my daily driver regardless so these are the main issues I'm having right now that haven't been addressed in either thread).
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
I assume you flashed userdata? Also it's cache, not cashe, in case you typed the latter. The bugs you report have not been reported before, and i have also never experienced them, so be sure to have installed the ROM correctly so that you're reporting actual bugs and not glitches, so you should probably just start from scratch and flash everything again. Userdata.img will wipe everything.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] qwasz123:
Ooops Cache, always misspell that!

Yup I installed everything correctly, flashed userdata, system and boot images, then loaded up the recovery, wiped the cashe, dalvik and data.

I'm going to try reinstalling everything right now and I'll play around with it again, hopefully everyhing will work out this time.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
Btw, no need to wipe anything from recovery once you're there. Everything is already gone, since flashing userdata wipes everything. Also, don't wipe cache, flash cache (fastboot flash cache cache.img)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] qwasz123:
Yup, I know, I've tried both ways (maily because it says to in the original post).

Edit: Same problems with another install, it seems like switching WiFi networks is the problem.

I'm using the phone with WiFi on, airplane mode on and Bluetooth connected to the 360.

Edit II: Even with Bluetooth off I am still getting the same problems, it seems that every time I switch wifi connections wifi just refuses to work unless I reboot.

Edit III: Okay it seems that after I leave the first WiFi access point I either boot my phone up in the WiFi refuses to reconnect. If the WiFi disconnects the screen flickering comes back in force, and if I try to connect to the WiFi the WiFi part of the settings app crashes.

In addition once the low battery warning appears the screen flickering comes back, and if the battery gets below 5% all hell breaks loose screen flickering wise.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] theinspector:
Any news?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
I believe he's starting from scratch with cleaner code. You can follow the Z1 thread for updated info. There's more activity over there than here (no surprises).
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] krabappel2548:
I think mic will be working on next release. Kernel with my mobile data fix didn't boot up, but will try again of course. There isn't much info on xda, but we are working hard behind the scenes ;)

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] th0ngpham:
Yeah! Wait for upload finish and I will flash it :silly:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] theinspector:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] udo7777:
is the problem with the display driver yet? It's very low

I think is a Kernel Problem

Confirmed bluetooth working on ZU as well. WiFi Mic and flicker and this'll be golden...

Thanks for your efforts krabappel, your keeping me from spending $700+ on a nexus 6 ;) :D XDA seems to not be letting me leave thanks today :mad:

Other smaller bugs:

1) I noticed the extreme bass one poster was talking about, may be a deal breaker for some

2) I see the ghost Sony logo when switching apps sometimes as another poster mentioned

3) still have to use alternate video player

We're getting there folks!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sm0L:
I wouldn't hope for Sony releasing anything in the next days.

They will use the unified kernel that it's used in these builds and that is not finished yet

---------- Post added at 02:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:13 PM ----------

Maybe the Sony logo ghost is the reason for the flickering, dunno :-S
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] krabappel2548:
So you guys can confirm mobile data working on ZU?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] :
Mobile signal flickers on and off for me and there is no data.

Spoke too soon. Data works!

But WiFi is broken.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] udo7777:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] H. E. Pennypacker:
Sony is required by Google to release "timely" updates to their GPe devices, so they can't wait for months before updating it. There's only been about a week since Lollipop rolled out to the Nexus devices, so i'm not expecting anything today, but the GPe models should (on paper) be updated shortly (weeks) after the Nexus devices. The HTC M7 and M8 GPe models are getting their Lollipop tomorrow (confirmed by HTC), so that's why i'm interested in knowing how far behind Sony is. They have after all released the Lollipop source code, binaries etc. for a lot of devices, meaning they're currently working on the GPe Ultra, or even testing it, making it ready for release today, tomorrow or next week. I have no idea, but it has to be soon(ish).

I'm just waiting for that tease from Sony's dev account on Twitter. Give me something at least to hold on :angel:

Also, that "ghostly" Sony logo does also pop up on KitKat, like CM11, and other AOSP based builds (but not on the GPe ROM), so that's not connected to the flickering. The flickering has to be located some place in the kernel.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] theinspector:
Hopefully it comes out soon. You'd think with all the source codes they've released that they have to be working on it. Considering htc is releasing theres friday, hopefully sony does soon after.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sm0L:
I'm just saying that i think GPe Edition will use the unified kernel too (only [MENTION=359497]jerpelea[/MENTION] can confirm this) and that kernel is not yet 100% , things like flickering are still not fixed, maybe they can fix it today, tomorrow or worst case scenario in a month :rolleyes:

How long did it take Jelly Bean to hit Ultra GPe when it was released? I don't know

They got CM12 (Lollipop) running on the HTC Explorer :silly: XDA is awesome :laugh:

But how? they have no AOSP sources or something? is it just a port? sry for OT but this is freaky!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] krabappel2548:
Cyanogen is a lot easier then aosp :p if you have cm11 there isn't too much adaptation necessary for lollipop I think.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] juggz143:
After reading the z1 thread, people are able to get WiFi and mobile data to work by flashing v2.0 > 2.5 > 3.0 without wiping data and cache in between.

So flash all 4 boot, system, userdata, and cache for v2.0 then only flash boot and system for the 2.5, then flash boot and system for 3.0 with no wipe in between.

I'm working so can't confirm, but thought I'd share so someone could test. :cough: @h.e.pennypacker :cough: lol I kid, you've just been very active and enthusiastic since this started.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] qwasz123:
I'm probably going to try this when I get some free time later today.

Does anyone have any info for the GPS? I'm going on a trip tomorrow and need GPS, I don't want to revert back to ugly Kitkat :/
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sm0L:
I had a crazy ideia...

How about hotbooting CM11 kernel with this ROM to see if boots and flickering is gone? No risk of bricking as long as it's hot booted right?

In the meanwhile i am comparing CM11 kernel source with the unified kernel source but if only i could know what to find :D maybe backlight driver?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] juggz143:
I'm pretty sure what would happen is a bootloop, but since you've hotbooted it would either go to recovery on the second boot or actually boot on the second boot but you'd be back to stock kernel.

With version 3.0 I am unable to turn on wifi and mobile data doesn't work well, it keep flickering in and out of service from full bars (I have full bars where I live) to no signal at all.

In addition when I try to switch back I have the same problems I have on this rom... only the display stays perminently at the lowest settings and the wifi does not work.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] juggz143:
Hey guys, I'm not sure if anyone tried it but I can confirm that by flashing the original 2.0 files then flashing boot and system from 3.0 without wiping in between makes wifi and mobile data work.

The key is not to wipe in between, because I called myself doing a factory reset after my first test (aka wiping data) and low and behold it killed mobile data :weird:. So I just flashed eveything again and they are both working.

All other known bugs are still present.
