I have one problem with this ROM. Everything is working fine, but i can't install TWRP. I tried Rashr tool, tried install by m5 tool, also tried install manually by copying FOTA partition and still got this ****y CM recovery. Do You guys have any thoughts?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] wickedmx:
Which version are you trying to install? I had issues trying to upgrade to 2.8.6, but 2.8.5 installs fine.

Download TWRP Manager from the play store and use it to install 2.8.5. There is a little bug in the app, so when you come to choose the version to install, you need to pick 2.8.4 and you will then see it is in fact going to install 2.8.5.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] icegustpl:
Thx for help, TWRP is working now.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rpk12:
Please can anyone help me

I want to try dis.last time i used cm12 based rom i have encountered some bugs like

Speaker phone.doesn't work on call and camera key doesn't launch camera.are those bugs still in this rom?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] wickedmx:
Speaker on calls works fine for me. The camera button still doesn't launch a camera app, however it does function fine when taking photos.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] EazyVG:
Been sometime I had used any CM/AOSP based ROMs. While waiting for eXistenZ to come up with an Lollipop update ROM decided to give this a try. Have been using this one for few days now and it is very stable and fast with few nice tweaks built-in.

Unfortunately in the Contacts/Phone I am unable to Link/Join contacts (Google) to that of Facebook/LinkedIn and even to Google+(!), though the WhatsApp/Viber do link/show up automatically in contact details. Any quick tips.

Also, seems like after flashing ROM I have lost TWRP and being replaced by Cyanogenmod Recovery only. Please suggest as do not want to end up bricking the piece. :p

I had the same problem with TWRP from the ExistenZ.

resolved so

Download the Google Play

From the "TWRP Manager" application reinstall the correct version of TWRP and READY!

Thank you for your friendly reply.

Nice day .... : O
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] EazyVG:
Thanks for the tip, will do so.

Another issue is that using Titanium (as I always used to do before) I delete AOSP Keyboard, Gmail, File Manager, CM Music app, Calendar but after reboot they keep coming back! Is it safe I delete them manually from /system/apps/... ?? Thanks.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] icegustpl:
It should be safe to manually delete these apps ;)

PS. I don't mean to offend anyone, sorry for that :) Thanks for replies.

Overheating

Hey guys, I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before but after using this rom for a while, I notice that my phone got real hot up to 62°C CPU temperature. That's way above normal temperature. Any solution for this?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] EazyVG:
Thanks. I ended up manually deleting folders relevant to apps from /system/app/ and all went well. I was afraid that the shell script responsible for reinstalling apps might cause some problem.

BTW, has anyone installed Xposed module and how and did you? Will the package from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811 work, and do I have to install all 3 packages as stated in the post. Thanks.

Really loving this ROM and I guess will stick to it from now onwards ... do not miss any Sony apps/integration, well perhaps except the Sony Camera app.

Oh, and one more question ... please recommend kernel with OC/UV, etc features.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] icegustpl:
I tried on infected ROM 5.1 but system didn't boot after 10 minutes of waiting. Tried 3 times. You must notice that xposed for 5.1 is very alpha and xposed for 5.0 is very unstable.

Check this

Unofficial xposed for 5.1

Can you use Link2SD app and Xposed?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] yavhin:
Installed this rom yesterday, and its excellent. Very smooth and battery is awesome. All are working great except:

1.) I can't move apps to my ext SDCard

2.) Vibrator Intensity

3.) Cannot add pic on user profile

anyone have the same issues?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] dhakalanil81@gmail.com:
1.USE ES FIle manager and use root explorer to unistall apps

2.use kernal managerchange vibration intese and reboot and unstall the all if you dont want it

3.no solution

And battery and perfomance is awsome in this rom

Anyone know if you can mute while on a call with this ROM? Seems like mute doesn't work on any of the 5.1 ROMs I've tried and I really need it for work.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] djclark25:
Just installed this ROM after a break away from it and I can confirm that both Loudspeaker and Mute work during calls in this new version

Testing.. This is better than stock lollipop! Only missing the camera interfaces, do you know some app to remplace the stock camera app?

I have random reboots, but I don't know if it's kernel M5 V5 or this Rom... How can I know it?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] aP!2:
if there any stock camera or any apps that can take advantage of the hardware can be install in z2, i never look back of sony rom =)

Guess it's m5 related. Had a lot of random reboots using the kernel. Without they are gone...

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] djclark25:
In 5.0.x ROMS under Settings>Apps, you had the option of changing install locations. Its normally set to AUTO and i had issues of not being able to install some apps. By changing it to INTERNAL the apps installed fine.

It looks like that option has gone in 5.1 and i couldnt find it anywhere so I had to run the following through ADB (ADB needs to be allowed Root Rights from Developer Options)

adb shell pm get-install-location

(Should show 0 which is AUTO)

adb shell pm set-install-location 1

(Will change to Internal)

Hope that helps people (If so, give me a thanks :) )
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] sh4d1t0:
Sorry but adb shell command said: error java.lang.securityexception package android does not belong to 2000
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] djclark25:
I remeber a few people saying they had that error when I googled it so what you can do is download a terminal emulator from the play store. I use this one....

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm&hl=en_GB

run it, type

su <enter> and grant root

then type

pm get-install-location <enter>

this should return a "0"

then type

pm set-install-location 1 <enter>

then re-type

pm get-install-location <enter>

and it should now say "1" for Internal

try that :)

This rom include TWRP recovery?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] TheLonelyCyborg:
Hi guys, I have few questions, sorry if they've already been asked :

- How is back camera quality on this ROM ? The same as CM12 I guess, but is it okay for everyday pictures ?

- In the same idea, is there a way to make the camera physical button work on CM based Roms ?

- And then, what about sound quality with audioFX for playing music with speakers and headphones ? Is it enough loud ? Does ViperFX work on this rom ?

Thanks for answers, I read 20 pages but didn't see those answers. Good work then !
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] _heisenberg:
Camera quality at good light is good. Main Camera also takes good pictures at medium - bad light. Front Camera takes very noisey pics at medium light. The Camera button does work, but not to set the focus. You can only take a photo with it. Audio quality is fine, you also have built in DSP manager with is pretty good.

Hi All,

there is a way to open the camera app with the physical camera button:

Through Tasker application:

There is no way to focus with the 1st pressure but at least we have a quick solution until it's solved in CM based ROMs.

Recovery

Love the ROM.

but missing the TWRP recovery.

I tried flashing a twrp img to FOTA partition, but I cannot access that recovery. tried defferent keys. if it's possible to use recovery on FOTA with this ROM's kernel, please include in the post How-To.

anyway, I guess it'd be better if you replaced the Cyanogen Recovery with the Latest TWRP on the kernel.

Thanks, love your work.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Mikey94:
TWRP working for me. how did you flash it? fastboot to recovery partition.

Or use the app "rashr" does it for me. (but latest version is 2.8.5.0 not 2.8.6.0).

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] madshark2009:
So im thinking to install this rom but before doing so , there are many comments about functionalities the rom doesnt have correctly or so ,

can any one sum all these bugs in one message , ive tried going along with comments to get some where but its kinda complicated

so after the update , what is the rom having bad ?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] dhakalanil81@gmail.com:
This is the best rom you will find for z2 (my openion)

Bug in this rom is

-viberation intensity setting

Thats all the bug .

Reason to use this rom

-Battery last like 6hrs screen on

-speed and perfomance

-costomization
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] madshark2009:
What about camera shutter button? Camera quality , pictures quality , if x ray mode works vividly , hows sound in headset ? Its all good?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] dhakalanil81@gmail.com:
Sound is loud spearker or headset

BAck camera is good but front is not good like stock but still good

not sure what xray mod
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] madshark2009:
Back camera "good" as the same as it comes stock? Slightly Worse or better?

X ray is in display settings which is actually an enhancement to the photos and videos ...

I Flashed and device stuck in sony logo / some times boot loop

what i did : using twrp recovery , backup , factory reset , wipe cache , dalivk , install rom , install gapps , install the older recovery that i had because flashing this rom will over ride it so i had to reflash it after installation

whats the problem ?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Shakib Haris:
LB?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] madshark2009:
nvm , flashing recovery right after flashing rom is the problem i fixed it :)

is there an update where camera is better ? im talking about video camera (4k option)

over all rom is TOP !! I LOVE IT ! :D , can I install sound mods on it though ? because I like high volume :)

if yes , what mod do you recommend ?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Shakib Haris:
well, No update for camera. no 4K. yes, you can install audio MODs. I myself was using Viper4Android on the former version (5.4.2) of this ROM, was working fine. But now V4A doesn't work on the latest version. maybe it could be because of the android system upgrade (5.1 to 5.1.1)

Now, I'm not using any mods for audio
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] TheLonelyCyborg:
And is there an audio mod that works on 5.3.4 ? Because with just AudioFX the sound is very low, and both V4A and Beats Extreme don't seem to work for now.

Except that everything works great, I've tried Camera FV-5 that works like a charm on this rom.
