I got ota update of the 14/4 but out there also unofficial of 15/4 any changes??
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Given that the Official is being uploaded from the States and Unofficial from Vietnam, the only difference is probably time zone. :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] zalpuriankit:
There is No option available on z ultra after flashing to blissrom 14/04/15 when i connect to desktop for usb mass storage ??????

ota update

I downloaded the 4/14 ota update. In the Updates app I chose to install. Phone rebooted to Cyan Rec and I chose to apply update. When I tried flashing the downloaded update file I received an error. It stated that it could not find a volume folder, and also that the update is for C6** (I have C6806). It said I have an ASUS_??? I can't remember. Either way, the update was not applied/flashed and I am now receiving errors/fc about Audio FX and Google Play Services (GRRRRRRR). I'll try a different recovery. This is my first time updating Blisspop from Blisspop. Any ideas????

Thanks ahead.

hi all!!can someone tell me which kernel blisspop rom using?i have this installed rom(CyanideL cm 12.1) 2 days ago and i has lag issues while gaming.also have some scroll lag using nova launcher.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Alien1891:
OP says Zombie is the source
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] johnnyman25:
CyanideL has zombie source too but i have lag when gaming.anyone have the same issue?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Alien1891:
I've only started using Blisspop this past week. It might be possible to flash Doomkernel, not sure. I never had issues with Doomkernel and lag on Z Ultra (even when gaming), but I've only used a CM based ROM one other time. Not sure if it's compatible, worth asking though.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] johnnyman25:
the previous rom i had(stoneui HD3) was based on stock 4.4.4 and had doomkernel.i had zero lag on games and nova launcher.can u pls run an antutu benchmark and show me the details screenshot after benchmark end?thx!! :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Doomkernel is a KK kernel, won't work with LP ROM.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Alien1891:
wonder if he'll be updating that for LP?

Navigation Bar Issues

Would it be possible to raise the Navigation Bar a little please? Just a few pixels would do it, as it is sitting at the very bottom of the screen and looks way too low. Please fix so that it appears slightly higher (as with CM12) Thank you.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Why would it be anywhere BUT at the very bottom?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pretty pixel:
In my opinion it is too low. The vertical positioning of the Nav Bar on CM12 is just right. Have a look and you will see what I mean :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Looks the same to me. Maybe use a different theme with smaller icons if you don't like it.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] morestupidemailnames:
The nav bar is the same as any other. The icons are big. I like them... Much more than I like having to reboot so the WiFi will work.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] RealityFails:
Are there any hindering bugs?

I wanna flash this rom. How's battery life? Close to stock?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] RealityFails:
Can anyone recommend a good kernel? I need one for gaming
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pTeronaut:
So, no-one going to mention that there's a BlissPop 3.2 Android 5.1.1r1 build (4/24) available?

Oh wait, I did. :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
I've been running it since the 24th, it's working well. :good:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] royalva:
good rom but wifi issues

I did a clean install of this rom, latest version... was working awesome on most of the things last night only to realize this morning at work wifi on very first very connection resulted in frozen phone and with black screen. ROM developers really did an awesome job. Hope somebody gets the patch for this to work.

ROM itself is really clean looking. Any other rom out there with minimal or no wifi issues?. Please help
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] RealityFails:
I had no wifi issues.

But please do BlissPop for Android 5.0.2 I like this rom so far the best. But I also depend on xposed now so I go back to stock for now.

5.0.2 please.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Triflot:
There have been many changes to the ROM and device tree the past couple of weeks, but no builds, so I hope I'm not crossing any boundaries by posting a new build here: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B629ORx1POtQU0x6Q2F3OHkyeW8/edit?usp=docslist_api

It includes [MENTION=5524782]mr.nth.na.vn[/MENTION]'s latest Ambient Display fixes. The navbar icon size is also fixed. :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Thanks, it's running well. What kernel did you include?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Triflot:
Tommy's Zombie kernel, just like stock Bliss.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
I find SlimLP works better, fewer slow-downs.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Triflot:
I don't have any strong opinions on this, but Zombie just got the cpu-boost driver reinstated, so performance should be better now. I find it battery friendly and efficient. :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Tommy-Geenexus:
Let's hope it will remain like this with the CPU-Boost Driver included ;)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] twhhhco:
Hi guys.

Excuse me, how to enable incoming call pop-up on this ROM?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Not sure what you're after - incoming calls are full-screen for me.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] twhhhco:
Yes, for me it is in full screen.

I would like a Pop-up is Stoke-ROM.

How is this possible?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] RealityFails:
This is the most stable rom. However it needs a lot 5,0,2 2 update

Hi.. I had just installed this rom and I realise the navbar icons are super huge... I read a few post back that this is fixed? Anything on my side that I have to do? Currently on 3.2.

Sorry, mine is working fine, but it's 2.4GHz.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] scpion:
Thanks. my 2.4 works fine. Its just not detecting my 5GHz.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] scpion:
Hmm.. I am having quite a bit of issue with this rom. Clean install ,nothing installed atm. Cant detect 5 GHz network from my modem.. Super wakelock issue.. And I notice the screen doesnt turn off when charging when its power off..
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
What is this?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] scpion:
Oh.. I just mean that I have a serious wake lock problem with Google play services. The device stayed awake ever since I installed the Rom. Not saying it's a bad Rom, just that I have many issues but I have searched this thread but no one seems to have the problems I have.. so I am a bit stumped here..
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
How do you know you have a wakelock problem? Which gapps are you using, have you tried others?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] scpion:
Am using the PA micro Gapps 0418... Do u know about my Wifi issue? No one seems to have it here.. I was on stock .242 before this but have no problem.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
No wakelock problem here, try Banks gapps. http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/?rom=banks&device=gapps

I already answered that I don't have 5GHz wireless available.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] scpion:
Oh ya. Sorry I was on mobile didnt notice you. Thanks! Going to try out the banks Gapps.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] scpion:
I am out of ideas.. I reinstalled and used banks gapps and I am still have those wake locks... I left it untouched after clean install.. Sorry to ask this. I read about hot booting with doom kernel to get TWRP. Any other way I can install twrp permanently?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
MultiROM. But no idea how your recovery could cause wakelocks.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] scpion:
Nah. My backup is in twrp. I just want to get it back a proper state first. Thanks.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
You sure Google services wouldn't settle down after all the restore and backup activities had finished? They normally say wait 48 hours after ROM install for battery to settle down.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] scpion:
I didn't do any restore from Google.. Dang.. I really wanted this to work.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Even so, I'd wait and see if it settles down.

With the usb initially slow. But I had it fully charged from 20% in a few hours. With the magnetic charger it charged a whole lot faster.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] macrostr:
Rom is lightning fast, rock stable and fun to use but really bad at battery life and charging time (may be just for me) . Full charge take almost 3 hours and battery life is about 17 hours (daily use), Previously I used lolipop GPE edition and official lolipop of sony, bliss is more responsive and fun. If I can fix the battery problem it'll be my daily driver.

Small Info of my state

I was on official Lolipop of sony witout root or custom recovery

-First I Unlocked Bootloader with ADB command

-Then install doomkernel and with TWRP

-Boot to recovery and installed blisspop and gapps zips

It's my first time with a custom kernel. Moving to an other kernel may be fix this battey issue ? any advice and suggestions will be greatly appreciated :highfive:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
To get an immediate large improvement in battery life, use SlimLP kernel instead of the included kernel.

Charging is poor on latest version, was fine on previous, I'm hoping for improvements in next version...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pTeronaut:
Does anybody use a bluetooth audio device that displays track data (Song artist & title) Such as the SBH50/52 or In Car Entertainment?

And can you report if any track data is being displayed? If it does, please tell which app you are using to play music.

I am yet to find a Lollipop ROM which displays Song title and artist on my SBH52 or my factory installed Sony ICE unit. Not even the 5.1 GPe port, although I haven't tried 5.0.2 stock as I have too many apps for Xposed not to want me to wipe the ART cache every reboot.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
I get data on my in-car, a Toyota system. Using Poweramp and Listen Audiobook Player. Also worked with other ROMs too.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pTeronaut:
Darn it, you're in the UK, just up the coast from where I used to live. I was going to ask you to try Pandora, but they haven't got licenced to stream there yet.

Could you give spotify a try and report back? (I did notice one time where MediaScanner had picked up a track that UltraSonic had downloaded from my SubSonic server, but I had forgotten to set UltraSonic to hide media from MediaScanner, so when I set my car to stream from my phone, Pandora didn't launch, instead the stock music player did, and my car did show the track info on that occasion) but music not technically on the phone doesn't get it's track info transfered to BT devices despite being available to.) 4.4.x roms always displayed track info from all sources where available.

I know that it's a bit much, but I am reluctant to try a lollipop rom as returning to kitkat afterwards requires using Flashtool to flash a stock rom before I can flash my favourite custom Kitkat ROM as for a reason that I am not aware of, straight flashing a KitKat ROM from a custom Lollipop ROM results in no recovery and not being able to access one that reports as being successfully flashed.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Spotify is fine.

Locks creen cLock widget

Despite having set the cLock widget to display my calendar events, these do not display on the lock screen. In fact, any changes I make to the clock are not reflected on the lock screen. If I place the same widget on the home screen it displays the clock and calendar events as intended. This just seems to be a lock screen issue. Has anyone else experienced the same problem?

Looks like a problem happening right now with multiple ROMs and devices. If you turn off System FC in Developer Options it's easier to use.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Triflot:
It's likely the "ART optimise everything" commit that many ROMs included some weeks ago. Liquidsmooth reverted it, commenting that it is "Allegedly the culprit for the recent Google Play Services FC's".
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Maybe, but I haven't updated ROM or gapps since 16th.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Triflot:
Play Services updates itself automatically in the background. :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Crafty bugger.... :D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] macrostr:
Installed latest releases about an hour ago (27 May blispop and 27 may banks gapps) still getting play services issue. I am just looking for latest android experience with moderate battery life.

Am I asking too much :P

Any advice ? SlimLP, resurrection remix, cyinade etc ???
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
All have this problem. Make the configuration change I suggested previously and it won't bother you.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shiro321:
Wait till Google fixes it I guess. I have been disabling and uninstalling updates of Google Play Services frequently, it solves the problem temporarily. Or you can rickgillyon's suggestion by disabling the FC popup box in developer's settings
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] macrostr:
Ohh! I missed that. It's better while waiting for a fix. Thanks :good:

I'm seeing this in logcat:

05-31 19:48:19.451 E/GpsXtraDownloader(1095): No XTRA servers were specified in the GPS configuration

Any ideas?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:
Have you checked /system/etc/gps.conf if you have the following?

#Uncommenting these urls would only enable
#the power up auto and force injection (test case).
#XTRA_SERVER_1=http://xtra1.gpsonextra.net/xtra2.bin
#XTRA_SERVER_2=http://xtra2.gpsonextra.net/xtra2.bin
#XTRA_SERVER_3=http://xtra3.gpsonextra.net/xtra2.bin

This is whats in the beginning of my config file.

These are three mirrors to a server to help with gps locking when first started. Its user defined so you can uncomment any of the mirrors if you want to use it. Otherwise it is not used by default.

Its kind of a assistance feature from Qualcomm https://www.qualcomm.com/news/relea...tra-assistance-expand-capabilities-standalone
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Thanks, but that doesn't seem to help. I'm also seeing this in the log:

06-01 22:12:17.023 D/GpsStatusListenerHelper(973): Remote Listener died: android.location.IGpsStatusListener$Stub$Proxy@2ad97de1

I assume you're on latest and no GPS issue?

A new install of Resurrection Remix works (in multirom), I'm now wondering whether I need to try a clean install of Bliss or jump to RR until navbar is fixed here...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
The latest Resurrection Remix has a fix for the Play crashes included:

Libcore: FIX google Play Services Crash

Any chance we can get a build with this included [MENTION=5052522]nprev420[/MENTION] ? Might fix my GPS issues... Clutching at straws, I know... :(
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Herrnobiz:
I like this rom very much, too bad the missing navbar in landscape...

Even the last build 20150531 still got this annoing bug

Google play services bug it's resolved finally and there's no more FC, thanks!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] nprev420:
New build just pushed, accidentally deleted the file needed for OTA to work so have to download it manually. Bootloop issue should be fixed
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Cheers dude, working well, Play Services FCs are gone and my GPS is functioning properly again. :highfive:

Navbar is still borked in landscape though. Any ideas on that? It's broken on a number of ROMs, working on Resurrection Remix, don't know if you can grab a fix from there...

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pretty pixel:
OK that's great. Thanks for reporting back :) I will flash over the next day or two, coming back to Bliss from RR. I really like the colour calibration and other kernel tweaks of Bliss.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Lol, I find the built-in kernel with Bliss gives really poor battery life, and always flash the kernel from RR, so your experience may be different from mine... :laugh:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pretty pixel:
I agree. RR battery life is better than Bliss. But as I said, I like the kernel tweaks, especially being able to boost the colour saturation of the display :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Colour saturation's not a lot of good if your phone is out of power... I can't even last a working day with built-in, two days with RR kernel. Still, give it a shot and see, your experience may be different.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] javagreen:
This sounds really interesting. How do I go about flashing the Resurrection Remix kernel? Just extract boot.img from the RR ROM and flash? Anything else I need to do besides that?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Exactly that. Most devs don't like you using a different kernel, but you can always flash back for testing anyway.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Just tested today's new build, 17th, thanks [MENTION=5052522]nprev420[/MENTION]. I was hopeful because I noticed a few Togari navbar changes in the changelog. Sadly, we still have the same problem with landscape navbar, sorry. Even tried full wipe.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Herrnobiz:
I found that at default bliss/zombie kernel seems to keep all cores at least at 300mhz even when at idle; after i changed to SlimLP1.5 i see it enable mdpdecision on by default and now i got 3 out of 4 cores fully off. Now i'm testing if this gives better battery life in blissrom
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] nprev420:
I can easily change the kernel. If everyone would like a different kernel I can do that for y'all. Just let me know and I'll change it. I was told that Zombie kernel was the best kernel so that's what I was going with. I don't have this device I just build for it.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
For me SlimLP gives far better battery, but it's simple enough to change so I don't mind either. See if any others have an opinion.

Were the latest changes an attempt to fix the navbar? Thanks for the efforts in any case. :good:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] :
Zombie is the best kernel in my opinion. So, one vote for Zombie right here.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rickgillyon:
Best in what sense? Have you tweaked settings to improve its battery life? What makes it better?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] 0xnth:
can you let me know more detail?

mean you is,now! you using dual boot recovery to flash BlissPop on togari? and device already unlock bootloader?
