[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jamaljmys:
thank you

yes you are right , but i used the multirom and candy5 is secondary rom.

any solution ?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Godaemon:
Another solution that comes in my mind is to reinstall candy rom(wipe cache,davilk and install system only) if you have that option available.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jamaljmys:
yes i can do that. actully it as last option . hope i will not lose any of my apps data. :)

thank you again
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Godaemon:
You wont lose anything..go ahead! :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] VipiN'n'DroiD:
Long time to see any updates :(
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] royalva:
Nice rom

Rooted my phone first time to install this ROM.

Thanks for the ROM. It is my daily driver for the past one week. :good:

Just my experience for everybody....

Changed the dpi to 240 to make the nav bar work. (love my tablet mode.. used to have it in Slimroms for the galaxy S way back)

No bluetooth issues with SBH52, first day there were issues i dont know what happened it doesnt disconnect anymore. (time doesn't display(among other things) on sbh52, probably the sbh52 app needs to be updated by sony..hopefully soon)

Sounds and notifications is force closing.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] oscar786:
I was about to sell my ZU, but I rooted and flashed this ROM and love this phone a lot now, my daily driver, ROM is excellent but need little tuneups, Sound settings are FC for everyone. I prefer this phone on my iPhone 6 plus, iphone is boring comparing to my ZU.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] royalva:
Cant agree more. Z ultra rocks and with Lollipop it can be with users for longer.

forgot to mention about google wallet, it is not working for me anymore - am I missing something? app is installed but is not working at store.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] RobFric:
Sound and notification settings

Hi, please, do anybody know, how I can't open sound and notification settings? Every time I want open this settings all setting app shuts down (sry for my bad English but I'm learning :D) please, please advise me what I could do, I don't hear incoming calls and SMS.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] boly007:
I have this question too

I want to disable touch vibration and sound , is there a way to do this ?

also the navigation bar in landscape disappears is there a fix?

+ thanks for Amazing rom
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] RobFric:
Sound and vibration

If you push volume button, sound indicator shows you and under are 3 options -> NONE PRIORITY ALL, so NONE and your sound and vibration will be disabled. With nav bar in landscape could help 240 dpi I think (sry for my bad English, I'm from Czech Republic)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Stefaanxd:
Tommorow i'll get my first Sony Z Ultra.

I'm now working on a iPhone 5S and that's being sold asap.

Soo, that took me here.

HOW do I get this Rom on my ZU?

I did read alot about this phone and how to root it. Can I use Easy Root Tool and SuperUS for this rom for example? and flash it with CM recovery or do you guys prefer an other recovery?

Sorry for this noob talk. But i want this on my ZU.

Greetings from The Netherlands.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] RobFric:
I used too easy root tool with supersu and then dual recovery :) ;)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] akrus:
When is 1.5.0 expected? :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Chima2:
Another question for the FAQ; Do I need to full wipe between versions?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Saatvik Shukla:
No.

Just flash the ROM, gapps package and wipe your cache :)

BDW peeps. New build is on its way. Should show up anytime now on afh now :)

CHeers

EDIT :

V1.5.0 is up.

Happy flashing

EDIT 2 :

Landscape navbar is back with the stock 320 dpi :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Chima2:
Thank you for the quick answer. Also, new version is up! I came to get the old one, got the new one instead. It's like winning the lottery, thanks dev!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] royalva:
thanks for the update. installed and running good..... :good:

Update: clicking "vibrator intensity" under sound settings force closes settings

Also changing ringtone to a custom sound is not working for me.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] boly007:
WOW very good

navbar is OK

Sound settings fixed

no issues for me

thanks shukla

Setting is working fine, vibration intensity giving FC, on Facebook messenger,when I make a call or receive a call, speaker stays on and can not turn it off whatsoever, any help
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sm0L:
Hi,

I don't know if it's a CM12 problem or a Facebook app problem but I can't comment on Facebook app because the button for posting is on the right but it's off the screen, I can't see it with this ROM and neither with Resurrection Remix too
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] RobFric:
Try to change DPI :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ronald_loulan:
Z ultra UB from Candy5 v1.0.0-2015211.

I flash the latest v1.5.0 then wipe cache n dalvik but after reboot the Google play n Youtube keep FC...

The FC pop up every 3 sec which is too annoying...

Tried flashing new gapps but fail due to CM recovery issue i think....

Now restore nandroid back to v1.0.0...

Any1 having same issue??

Solved:

Flash latest Gapps right after flashing Rom...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] royalva:
When u update u need to flash the rom then the gapps immediately at the recovery. Did u do that? If not that could be the issue.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ivrsn_des:
there seem to be a camera problem whenever i open a camera app.

it either runs fine, or it lags severely then force closes, which would result in the entire system lagging and would require a restart.

other than that, everything runs extremely well, thanks :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ronald_loulan:
Sometimes i encounter this prob too but like once a week...

Restart n camera problem goes away...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Saatvik Shukla:
Thank you for bringing up the camera thing, i missed to notice it the last time i flashed it for a short time.

I've queued a build, so it will drop here soon ;)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jnocomski:
Finally, after coming from the stock CM12's "mobile network issues" and Sony Xperia UI's constant FC and freezes, this is a breath of fresh air! Hopefully this won't be affected by CM12's current bug as I don't want to change ROM again. Thanks!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] NuclearKamikaze:
Move 2 SD

Man I love this rom but I wanna know if everyone is having the problem of not being able to move apps 2 sd.

I know its beta, so if thats the case for everyone I will just wait for updates :)

Running the latest build as of now of March 25 2015

Thanks Keep up the great work
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] royalva:
Thanks for the update. But its sad to hear you won't update them moving forward.

No worries u gave us an excellent ROM. What ever else you do we wish u good luck with them.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] digitalizeur:
what about audio reproduction and capture ?

Hello,

Since I've tested:

Cyanogenmod 11 and 12. And CarbonROM, AOKP, Paranoid Android. (4.4.4).

I've always experienced a bug on audio capture (shazam, snapchat, camera app, voice recorder app,...).

The bug is:

Recording a video, and then listens it, I dramatically don't hear anything even by turning the volume on the max, same goes with snapchat, nobody hears me.

Do someone has already recorded anything with a custom rom and noticed this issue ?

So why nobody reports it ? Even the audio reproduction is LOW (bit it's ok)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ronald_loulan:
Thanks for the update and thanks again for this marvelous rom....

Sad to hear that u r stopping...

Hopefully we will see u in action again... ;)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Chima2:
Have you tried recording just audio or a phone call? Same result? Never had this problem myself.

If so, it could be your mic is damaged/covered by something and doesn't take in sound that well.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] al Fateh:
Custom recovery...?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] digitalizeur:
Working just fine on the stock lollipop and stock kit kat. Cyanogenmod is bad for audio recording for shazam, snapchat, camera,. . . .. Except phone callings.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jeremy.chan:
sad :( no more development for this excellent rom

anyone know where i can access quick unlock and trusted places?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] David_Malekzadeh:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] suzhipack:
Can i use this as my daily ROM? is it stable version? :)

Can i use this as my daily ROM? is it stable version? :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Saatvik Shukla:
Its Raining Candies!

Candy5 is back online :o

Builds will go on weekly basis from now on, between Wednesday and Friday. Watch this space for more.

Candy has been updated to 5.1.1 V3.

Happy flashing!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Saatvik Shukla:
OTA should now be online.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] m.mousa85:
is there any difference regarding battery life and the camera performance between this rom and the stock one lollipop 5.0.2 ??
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] tylermus:
I'm loving the ROM, however, I'm am having data connectivity issues. It will intermittently connect and disconnect.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] sw6lee:
Does anyone know the speed of this rom compared to resurrection? Resurrection is crazy smooth with almost zero lag but battery life (especially standby) is terrible even with all the greenfiy and power nap mods. I'm wondering what this candy rom is like, since it's also CM based. Is it as fast and smooth? How about battery life? Any help will be very appreciated. :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] xaoup:
I suggest you just try it out dude and see for yourself, if it much worst then you can always restore your backup. If its better, then praise the lord amen.

As for me, this one is deliciously good.

Too bad, updates are left out in the cold.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] appleknight:
What happened to this ROM? Page not found, is it a done bun? :(

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] MissyKoneko:
Does this rom has cm13?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Shashank1976:
I managed to install gapps-kk-20140105-signed.zip successfully with the cm recovery.

Now everything works like a charm.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ronald_loulan:
After i restore back to CandyKat, i wipe everything again n reinstall Candy5 n 5.0 Gapps Beta...

Now all working fine atm...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Already asked but I'll try... :) If I flash this will I retain MultiROM and its TWRP?

Bluetooth confirmed error-free?

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ronald_loulan:
Found out that after i pair bluetooth device,i cant share internet via bluetooth device...

But bluetooth tethering is working...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
I use the following G-Apps from the first post:

Slim_full_gapps.BETA.5.0.x.build.0.x-20150204-463.zip

Works perfectly. Flashed both my Ultras yesterday and no problems at all. I always hotboot Doom v22, boot into TWRP and flash from there.

My good impression with the ROM is stronger now. 44% battery when I went to bed and... 44% battery when I woke up. WiFi on, Tasker running, syncing etc on per profiles. Very good result.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Saatvik Shukla:
Kexec-ed the Sweetness :p

Candy people!

A small update here.

The Feb 3 build of Candy5 was not kexec patched.

The new build of Feb 5 IS patched. Henceforth, whoever might want to you can choose. There are no major changes, so if you dont want the MR you can skip flashing this new build.

Except the kexec patch they both are essentially the same.

Other than that, the GPE build is coming in soon. If there is any GPE owner out there, wanting to help me test the build. Do PM me. :)

Thanks for all the positive response. Enjoy the candy, and dont forget to brush your teeth before going to sleep :p :good:

Ignore...I was wrong.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] crodgers79:
Search for PA GAPPS 5.0 something, it always flashes without any problem using CWM or TWRP.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
I have now started to use the ROM and my good impression still stands. The BT audio bug is really squashed now, start/stop from SBH20 works without killing the audio. Reconnection after being off also works.

The battery life seems great and the device runs cooler than with other ROMs. I noticed this after one hour of talk through Hangouts; the device kept the temperature down on a low level.

I have not noticed any stability issues either.

This is my new daily driver. I wonder if someone tried the Candy Sweetener packs yet? I am thinking about flashing one later.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
MMMM so the ROM is looking great BUT not sure if its only me, when I am in landscape mode, I get no navigation icons so I need to move to portrait in order to close apps like messaging or chrome for example.

I did install the Sweetener pack so not sure if that is what messed it up for me or not.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] halifage:
+1

I tried playing with NavBar settings but to no avail.

I feel it's a setting I'm missing somewhere
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
I got the icons in landscape. No sweetener pack flashed. I rotated the device in Gallery and FX File Explorer and they show up properly and works.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] 3ftguru:
D2tw doesn't seem to work for me. Anyone got it working?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Doesn't work on mine, and I haven't flashed the sweetener. If you set nav bar to two layouts, you can just see the < from the layout switcher, so I'm guessing the buttons are off-screen. Certainly the space for the nav bar is there at the right of the screen...

Great apart from this so far!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
It is strange. Here is a screenshot from my device in landscape mode.

http://i.imgur.com/TYyueEZ.png
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ronald_loulan:
I have this problem too...

When im playing game and wanted to exit it but no icon available...

I need to slide down to go to phone setting in order to exit the game...

Did any1 tried T2W??

Mine didnt work...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
The space for the navigation bar always for me appears on the right, not on the bottom. Are you using the latest build?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
I am on the Feb 3 build since I flashed it yesterday. I didn't bother with the latest one since MultiROM is of no interest to me (as long as I can't multiboot old ROMs such as old stock ROMs from 2013 for nostalgic purposes).
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
As you can see here, space for the Nav Bar is on the right:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
Perhaps one reason is that I use 240 DPI on my device, hence that the navbar moves down in landscape. I guess you are using phone mode?

I never use my devices in "phone mode" (I just can't stand it, things like browser tabs drive me mad) so I guess that's why I didn't notice.

One thing I wonder is how to configure "cLock". I got the impression that it is in the ROM but I just can't find a way to actually configure and enable it. I am talking about the CM clock widget.

Edit: I flashed the latest build and before I changed to 240 DPI, the same navbar problem occurred. After changing the DPI, it works properly. In fact, I have a hard time to see why anyone would accept 320 DPI on the Ultra?;) "Android Life starts at 240" (DPI) is my slogan....
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] VipiN'n'DroiD:
what was your flashing procedure/order, as I see others are unable to flash the gapps.. :eek:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ronald_loulan:
Any idea how to remove swipe up to unlock as is kinda fussy if using with pin lock?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
I flash the following way:

1. Turn off the device.

2. Open Flashtool and select fastboot, kernel to hotboot Doom v22.

3. Connect the device to the computer in fastboot mode.

4. Hotboot Doom v22.

5. When Doom v22 boots, enter TWRP.

6. Wipe everything.

7. Flash Candy.

8. Flash Slim_full_gapps.BETA.5.0.x.build.0.x-20150204-463.zip.

9. Wipe cache/Dalvik cache.

10. Reboot the device.

11. Profit!

It works everytime for me. No problems at all and this procedure is my standard one for ROMs from now on since it seems like TWRP or CWM is missing in action from LP kernels.

I always hotboot Doom v22 when I flash things when I use LP ROMs.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] VipiN'n'DroiD:
Thanx alot ! :good::good:

I think Steps 2 - 4 are same as :

-extract DoomLord's Kernel's boot.img into your fastboot folder

-fastboot folder use SHIFT + Right Click --> Open command window

-fastboot boot boot.img

after phone automatically restarts --> CWM/TWRP ..

as I basically use to hotbooting the kernel ..

Navigation bar

Navbar buttons aren't visible in landscape.

Sweetener pack weren't installed.

Tried every settings under Navbar settings.

The bar is all black, and it's not just graphical, there is no action touching the place of the buttons.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ronald_loulan:
Few of us have this problem too...

Did anyone tried it with Sweetener Pack??
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
I just used my MultiROM install, booted to TWRP, wiped everything, installed the ROM and gapps from thread (recommended gapps is no longer the Slim beta ones), wiped cache and dalvik, reboot. No problems at all.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] morestupidemailnames:
nice

Installed from slimkat. Flashed ROM zip, gapps and su from twrp. It took a little searching to find a viable gapps download.

In landscape the far left cursor button is visible, does not respond. As if the nav bar was still horizontal, but off the screen.

Other than that all seems to work.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
Yes, it is the same but I rather recommend my procedure with hotbooting Doom v22 rather than actually flash it (don't see the need when it is going to overwritten anyway).

I use Flashtool for this. I always hotboot Doom v22 everytime I am going to flash something and I guess it will be the standard until CWM/TWRP appears in LP kernels.

---------- Post added at 08:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:38 AM ----------

I am going to write this in big, bold letters:

For those of you that experience NAVBAR PROBLEMS, change the DPI to 240, thus enabling tablet/phablet mode - and the NAVBAR STARTS TO WORK!

Use ROM Toolbox and change the build.prop to 240 DPI since the ROM isn't equipped with a DPI Changer. ROM Toolbox can be downloaded from Play Store here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.liberty.toolbox&hl=en

I posted a screenshot from my device with the navbar and it is coming here again:

http://i.imgur.com/TYyueEZ.png

Sorry for using big colored letters here but since the same comments about the navbar reappeared, I considered it necessary to catch the attention of everyone. :good:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] cyvr1:
Hi,

yap, that helped but on the downside the symbols in the status bar get very small. Is there any way to increase the size of the status bar and the symbols? I went through all the settings but did not find anything.

Stephan
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
You can try another DPI like 280 and see what happens.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
Looks like 285 is the biggest you can go without losing the navigation icons based on my quick tests.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Everything gets so small that I can't see it, but navbar is working. Thanks. For. That. :D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
Even if my eyesight is quite degraded (use strong glasses), I have no problem with reading anything on 240 DPI. I have used it since I rooted my C6802 in September 2013...;)

320 DPI is a waste of screen estate to me and I just can't stand phone mode.:D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Saatvik Shukla:
I guess i have found the reason for the navigation bar thing.

It intends to keep the navigation bar towards the bottom of the screen.

If we keep multiple nav bar layouts you can see the arrow to switch layouts at the end, as if the nav bar is on the bottom of the screen

Hence if we keep the DPI to something like 240/260, it enables tablet mode and we see the navbar, but still at the bottom of the screen

This sounds the most logically possible thing. But i have no idea how to force it to keep the nav bar as it should be.

Will be checking the candy git to find if there is any commit that favours this response of nav bar in the coming days.

If someone has any ideas/suggestions, they are gladly welcome.

Regards
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
I would put it this way: rather than trying to identify a cause that could mean problems in tablet mode, lets put the DPI to 280-285 rather than 320 and call it a day since it seems like that particular setting actually work.

Personally, I would just set it to 240 DPI since I don't see any need for phone mode on the Ultra 6.44 inch display. Tablet mode in Lollipop works great and bring a lot of benefits such as a more convenient Settings display and tabbed browsing.

I would also like to say that I think everyone should use tablet mode on Lollipop ROMs but that is because I just consider phone mode to be downright horrible. Android in phone mode is to me adequate for a 3.5 inch display but on a 6.44 inch? Vojne vojne (Swedish expression).... My Ultra has been in 240 DPI mode since September 2013. It was the first thing I did when I got it. 320 DPI which I had for three weeks before root was possible was... a hard time for my poor nerves and I am not totally healed yet.;)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
I understand you prefer that mode but I think if its possible to fix 320 for others then why not? Its all about choices since we are not all the same. ;)

In other news....is Bluetooth stopping for you guys? It does it for me not long after starting which was never a problem with GPE 5.0 :/

Other than that, I decided to use Apex after testing Nova just because of how the icons look in landscape mode and the ROM feels extremely stable so a full :good: from me!
