I have this issue on latest build. I can't save my own APN setting. Please help
[Xperia Z General] gedhe:
Latest build is available since a few days.

Most interesting new feature is the experimental support for ext4-formated sd-cards.

[Xperia Z General] mcjordan92:
Hmm stupid question.. Where is all the Sony apps and launcher?

I have a clean AOSP version.. Isnt it supposed to be Sony version??
[Xperia Z General] Ben Ling:
AOSP=Android Open Source Project

It is a build that is same to the Nexus devices

Sony haven't release their Android 5.0 update yet
[Xperia Z General] afeeq:
Have been used it for 2 days and everything is perfect.. stable... but it just a pure AOSP.. btw it just awesome...

Better still you can grab individual latest Sony apps from www.gizmobolt.com OR www.xperiaguide.com
[Xperia Z General] mcjordan92:
Thanks for that!

The screenshots on page 2 confused me..

A few more questions please

How to root? And get recovery

edit:

*ok, its a built-in :P*

And my 64gb SD card somewhat isn't working, any idea why?
[Xperia Z General] shoey63:
Your 64 bit sd card may be exfat. Not supported by AOSP due to proprietary reasons unfortunately.:(
[Xperia Z General] mcjordan92:
thats a real bummer..

what exactly is exfat? will there be an update fixing that or something?

p.s: managed to install the sony pack, but it doesn't contain camera :(

Can the camera be installed separeted somehow? its the best of Sony..
[Xperia Z General] shoey63:
Sony camera is also proprietary. :p

Try some other kernels to see if your sd card works with pabx's rom (without breaking Wifi), and share your experiences here:thumbup:

Will this work on locked bootloader???And after upgrading this,can i flash back my stock sony official 4.4.4 firmware??
[Xperia Z General] zarg404:
Hi,

Does the "Sony bundled Apps" contain the FM-Radio app ? Is the FM-Radio working with this ROM ?

Thank you
[Xperia Z General] Richy99:
no, it needs an unlocked bootloader as its a custom kernel
[Xperia Z General] mcjordan92:
I really have no experience with that, can you link me please a kernel that might work?

I don't wanna guess something that might not fit.
[Xperia Z General] mohdsubaie:
I don't think there are any custom kernels that are compatible with aosp yet.
[Xperia Z General] natibongo:
FM radio is not contained in it because it's not a Sony app

Download Spirit2 from the play store

And it works perfectly

You're welcome

Can you provide flashable zip

Can you provide flashable zip
[Xperia Z General] LaurynasVP:
As far as I know, AOSP builds can't be zipped in a .zip,. rar. or something like this. Well, they can be, but they aren't being flashed through recovery as it's impossible for now (or I'm wrong, just have read somewhere, if I've made any mistake(-s), please correct me).
[Xperia Z General] uncomment:
System.img can decompress to system folder by some apps. Cause that it can compress to zip.
[Xperia Z General] emotionl86:
It works very well. I can't feel any problem yet.
[Xperia Z General] pyramid:
I m bit noob here. From instruction on first page, do we need to first go into bootloader mode and then do fastboot commands?
[Xperia Z General] natibongo:
OK now here's the easy way

1. Switch off your phone

2. Copy the .img files into the fastboot foder located in drive C on your computer

3. Hold shift and right-click the mouse button and select "Open Command Window here"

4. With the command window opened, and your phone off,hold the volume up button on your phone and connect your phone to the computer via USB simultaneously

5. The LED light should now turn blue if proper drivers are installed

6. To double-check this type "fastboot devices" and hit enter. This should display your device ID if not check and install drivers

7. Now flash all the .img files in this order:

(I) fastboot flash boot boot.img

(ii) fastboot flash system system.img

(iii)fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

(iv)fastboot reboot

8. Enjoy and send a thumbs up to [MENTION=3911109]pabx[/MENTION] for his wonderful work
[Xperia Z General] pyramid:
Thanks Man. You saved my phone. I forgot to flash userdata and was on boot loop. and was not able to go into boot loader. Your above reply helped me login int bootloader and flash all files again. Now all good.. Thanks a lot

Simply backup its content and via the phone go to settings>>Storage>> and under SD card press the "Erase SD card".

It will format the card and make it works again..
[Xperia Z General] satek:
Fantastic! This is working amazingly well for me!

Getting the right drivers to recognise my device in fastboot mode was an exercise in patience, but flashtool and rebooting windows to allow unsigned drivers smartscreen without automatically blocking them eventually saved the day. Serves me right for running Windows 10 technical preview and forgetting about all the fun that can be had with finding and installing proper Android drivers.

The only trouble I had with lollipop was with Gesture Typing on the keyboard. After downloading google keyboard from the app store, then actually remembering to set it as default, I now have it back in action. Supposedly it's a known issue with the ASOP keyboard where it just doesn't work.

Battery seems to be doing great. WiFi, 4g, call quality, audio, and camera all work fine and I've had no issues. Will totally use this instead of stock and it's upcoming lollipop upgrade. Thank you so much!
[Xperia Z General] pabx:
Yeah, this is a known AOSP 'feature': The AOSP version of the keyboard does not include the complete gesture sourcecode: it is only included in googles own build of the keyboard (available from the playstore)

Btw: For people who suffer from the random reboot issue: good news: i figured out what causes the reboot and i'm currently test-driving a fix for it.
[Xperia Z General] satek:
Oh, yeah, this is one of those times where Google makes no sense!

I found another keyboard oddity that may be along the same AOSP being excluded vein. A random assortment of emoticons don't show up with their proper artworks. I've tried the Japanese keyboard, AOSP keyboard and Google Keyboard.

They all had the same issue, so I used Emoji Switcher (Root) as an easy way to swich the lollipop NotoColorEmoji.ttf but it didn't fix the problem.

Everything else is going great though! :D
[Xperia Z General] luluchambler:
Hey Fellas, I need a quick clarification here.

If I install this Rom or any custom Rom for that matter, will I be able to install the proprietary Camera Blobs so that I won't have a decrees in picture quality or is this NOT possible?

Btw. Is this Rom available without any of those gapps pre-installed?

Cheers Guys.
[Xperia Z General] pyramid:
Yeah it does not have in-built gapps. You need to flash it separately.

Boot problem

Hello

I have a C6603 with a unlocked bootloader.

When i flash the boot, system, userdata images everything look good, no errors.

I reboot the phone by fastboot reboot.

Phone reboots, and it stays stuck on the 4 moving dots.

Leaved the phone for 30 minutes and it stil shows the 4 moving dots.

I have tried to reinstall the files, no progress

I have tried to install the 5.0.9 files, same problem as the 5.1 :(

Can someone help me
[Xperia Z General] natibongo:
That's strange

Boot into recovery and wipe cache partition. If it doesn't just flash a stock ROM via flashtool,enable USB debugging and start the whole process again

I think that will work
[Xperia Z General] MAkS1:
This rom is really great! Only thing is that I can't seem to find a decent camera app, why is the quality much lower and 4:3 on all custom roms? Thanx
[Xperia Z General] GrizzlyJr:

This could be solved by restarting the device.

Problem solved!!!

Flash back to stock ROM via flashtool --> Enable USB debugging --> Flash Android 5.1 with ADB

Thnx

[Xperia Z General] F4113n:
Excellent work. No more heating problem and little better battery duration after clean install.

Calls work great also bluetooth and wifi connections work well.

I just miss Infected's great integrations in settings. I'd really like he would work with this one here.

I did clean install by flashing first all img files

Then rebooted into os and moved gapps to root of internal sdcard

Rebooted so gapps will be installed

After that i downloaded latest superuser zip and dirty flashed in recovery.

I hope this guide help someone :)
[Xperia Z General] mcjordan92:
Just to make sure what version have you installed? The 5.0.7 which is Android 5.0.2 or the 5.0.2 version of the ROM?
[Xperia Z General] pyramid:
I m on 5.1 of PABX but could not get into recovery. Would you be able to tell me?
[Xperia Z General] LitoNi:
press volume up or down when you boot and see Sony logo with the led lit up. if you dont see that flash back the old boot.img and then enter recovery, after flashing your zips in recovery, turn the device off and then flash the original boot.img

Edit: Problem fix, by airplane mode.

Thanks,
[Xperia Z General] mcjordan92:
What no, you werent suppose to comment that.. The person I mentioned said he use 502 because 5.1 cant run Xposed.. Im on 5.1 and I miss 5.1 but I liked the double tap feature so I asked if thats available in 502 either so I could downgrade without losing anything important

When you start your phone, it don't always detect a simcard.

You have to reboot your phone one or two times till it the simcard detects.

[Xperia Z General] natibongo:
Hold power and volume up buttons simultaneously

Wait until it vibrate 3 times to indicate shutdown

Now start the flashing again via fastboot mode

If it persists go into recovery and wipe cache partition etc and reboot
[Xperia Z General] Rolo85:

It works for me.
[Xperia Z General] natibongo:
Once its pre rooted you can edit build.prop to suit your device name after installation

And then flash ZR kernel only via flashtool

This rom does not comes with recovery? How can I get it?
[Xperia Z General] natibongo:
It's already bundled with recovery

Shut down the phone and turn it on again

Start pressing volume up button before the Sony logo appears

Notification light will change and take you to recovery mode
[Xperia Z General] applefruit:
I tried that but it boot up as normal. Strange....btw, I've flashed Version 5.1.0-p1. No root, no recovery. :(

I managed to have root by flashing another boot.img with recovery-flash superSu-v2.46-reflash boot.img for this rom. But I'm not sure what recovery to flash. All of previous custom roms i've flashed have recovery bundled.
[Xperia Z General] Pablosch23:
the rom already has a recovery, reflash boot.img and check if u can boot into recovery mode.

Last week I upgraded my phone to this verisone of pabx, until now everything went ok.

I now use this ROM for two days. No major issue so far, but one strange behavior when my phone is on its dock: screen never switch off! Worse, if I switch it off and I get a notification, it is switch on (no idea why) and remains on. As a consequence, charging is very slow.

I already checked into display settings, it is set to dim 1 min. Daydream is off. In developer settings "keep active " is also not enabled. Is it a bug?
[Xperia Z General] natibongo:
Similar thing happened to me

To solve this problem, choose between 2 to 30 minutes delay and switch the phone off.

Switch it on again and select your desired delay time, either 30sec or 1min

Does this ROM come with certain CM features such as Privacy Guard and Eleven Music Player?

[Xperia Z General] CosmicDan:
It has nothing except Volume skip-track in "Device" settings, visible when you unlock Dev options.

Shame this ROM is 100% closed source, can't help but think pabx has some Trojans or some nasty crap in there. Don't see the point of this so I'm ditching it, what's the point of stability when its less capable than CM11 :\

[Xperia Z General] kingvortex:
It 100% is not closed source. You can go and build it yourself if you like. You really shouldn't make statements like that if you're not certain. ;)

Im about to try this rom, so I hear this was the same guy who made the first 4.4 AOSP and now 5.0 and 5.1, and looks like he is the only one who cares about getting the best performance for our phone internally *props* mate. I'm sorry say this but cyanogenmod or omni for our phone is losing battle. especially fxp has drop maintaining our device. thomas has left since he got a Nexus 5, this guy is all we got as of now. :crying:

[Xperia Z General] CosmicDan:
Good to know, forgive my ignorance - there's no mention of source code at all on the yuga lollipop page.

Sent via Tapatalk on my Xperia Z
[Xperia Z General] GuiPoM:
AOSP is an opensource project. I do not know what is the licensing to redistribute, but at least everything is published on sonyxperiadev github (https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/device-sony-yuga) forked here for this ROM (https://github.com/adrian-bl-yuga/device-sony-c6603)

So contrary to many ROMs here, it's far from being closed sources ... and being able to do these checks, contribute and build it yourself should be another positive argument !

I just upgraded to p2 and I am testing it. I hope the minor issues I was facing are fixed, otherwise I will report in the bugtracker.
[Xperia Z General] CosmicDan:
Which one of these are pabx's Repo's?

AOSP is irrelevant. Its the kernel and device trees that we need to build AOSP though. I assumed PABX was closed source because:

1) There is zero mention of his repo(s) on the site

2) I read he "left XDA", I assumed because of GPL violations (on kernel sources)

3) Every single other lollipop firmware is horribly unstable (random reboots and/or constant audio buffer underruns) whereas pabx's is perfect. Actually I do get buffer underruns on pabx's sometimes still but very rarely and not massive " BZZZT" noises like CM, etc.

What "many ROMs" here are closed source? The ones that are a stock ROM with changed apps or graphics? Sony Roms are not AOSP, that's no fault of any chef. They're hacking an already-closed ROM.

If pabx's device tree and kernel are indeed open, then I have to wonder why everything else is so unstable. I'm guessing its just a case of dedication/interest.

[Xperia Z General] pabx:
False: Scroll down, there is a link to the issue tracker where you are one click away from all repos.

Also: The location of the repos has been the same since the 4.x days, and the 4.x-port page even includes nice build instructions: see: http://www.blinkenlights.ch/ccms/android/yuga.html

(I never got around adding them to the 5.x page - but it's not THAT hard to find them. I know about at least 4 people who do their own builds using my sources)

False: I stopped publishing my work here because it became a place of trolls and id?ots (one guy was insulting my mother because he didn't like the stock icons of KitKat) and because people were binhacking my builds and re-released them without any sources and without any credits.

Oh: And now i get accused of breaching the GPL and releasing trojans by some other random guy. Nice.

That is hardly my fault.

I was not convinced to get android 5.1 working one day on my phone. From now almost 1 month this is my daily driver.

The major issue I had with plane mode is now resolved (not sure it has something to do with p2 release, or if this is just a side effect ...)

So the only thing I can say to conclude this questions around sources and licensing : many thanks to all contributors and specially to [MENTION=3911109]pabx[/MENTION] ;)

Please always consider that this is not a job (in a sense that you get money) that is done here, but an amateur work (by amateur, I mean the roots of this word, done with love), so doing this kind of unbalanced feedback could always have consequences for the community.

So [MENTION=1844875]CosmicDan[/MENTION], now that you have your information, have a look to the repositories, try to do the build by yourself if you don't feel confident with the delivery mechanism, and please be constructive in your feedback ;)
