I know Viper4Android, maybe i can try next time.

Is AudioFX app similar as Viper4Android? or Viper4Android better?
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
idk that mate, it's beyond my knowledge.. they surely are similar, but anyway I think it's pretty subjective as some people prefer one over the other, while others do reversed.

also there is the paid PowerAMP player with good sound effects but only for music (i.e. not system-wide effects)
[Xperia Z Android Development] mkryvz:
Thanks Bro

i tried AudioFX, its not best but ok for now.

I'm going to try Viper4Android later.

Awsome Battery Life

This is by far the best Lollipop ROM I have tried [CM 12.1, Omni, etc.]

This has the longest battery life out of all current Lollipop ROMs

I have a lot of problems with new update WiFi problems aloot Dc when i use any app and hang aloot off time :(
[Xperia Z Android Development] Greg77970:
Hi, it's the first time I provide a log so I expect this is what you need ;)

It's the first reboot I had since 2 days with your ROM :)

EDIT : I use your last kernel version, last ROM version and TWRP recovery ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] Cr33D OrB:
So good will try newest Version :good:
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
Thanks a lot Greg, the log helped a lot, at least it raised a suspicion, and I made some changes, rebuilding now and I'll test it when it's done. If it's good, I'll post an update asap.

edit: it's not what it seemed, will look into this in more detail
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
which new update do you mean? 04/25 introduced new wifi driver but kernel update 04/27 had nothing to do with wifi.. also did you wipe caches? try wiping data too if you continue having problems.
[Xperia Z Android Development] hunting_:
Yeah I'm on same this update and still WiFi problems :( clean flash 5 time ;(
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
Can you please explain in bit more detail what wifi problems you have?

Here wifi works just fine, tested with long skype (video) calls, doesn't disconnect on screen off, using the internet/web with various apps and browsers is without problems, etc...
[Xperia Z Android Development] TrueFriend-cz:
Maybe graphic or incall functions. (YouTube, Google+, etc.) and (Skype, Viber) have problems.... WiFi. (maybe this apps calling anywhere command from Android and Android from Kernel or System, then problem with WiFi).

This information is from my testing. This information and test real true 30%-90%.

For better testing... Do you know app for logging all access apps or commands to hardware (WiFi module)?
[Xperia Z Android Development] mostafaz:
hi :)

had reboot after light under volt (12.5 - one step )

but seems good without any uv

btw thnx
[Xperia Z Android Development] Cr33D OrB:
Okay than waiting for ur New build!!

Hopefully we can flash tomorrow :good:

:D
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
yea kernel will probably be updated until tomorrow, some issues have piled up, tho none of them too serious. next RR update will be when they officially jump to 5.1.1

stay tuned :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] schorsch.funke:
RR 5.4.2 with 5.1.1 is out since 1 or 2 days.

Thanks for your hard work!
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
mate I meant officially. my 04/25 build actually is 5.1.1 because the AOSP sources are synced with 5.1.1 but RR is still officially 5.1.0_r5..

check out their changelog linked in OP about 5.4.2, you'll see what I mean :)

edit: so apparently there is 5.4.3 with 5.1.1 in the meantime.. hadn't seen that, sorry.. too busy with the kernel I guess..

so RR will be updated too until tomorrow, I hope :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] schorsch.funke:
Sorry, wrong version. I mean v5.4.3
[Xperia Z Android Development] hunting_:
When I use what's app and browse i got DC from my WiFi and i think this is f2fs problem because i change to f2fs that's why I got WiFi problems
[Xperia Z Android Development] schorsch.funke:
That make no sense for me, because f2fs is a filesystem , and is only for storing data on the sdcards
[Xperia Z Android Development] farahzadfarahzad:
Actually I have rebooted my phone and it stuck in the power by android 5.1 and keep updating my apps and when it's done it continue again updating apps I had to use secondary rom
[Xperia Z Android Development] hunting_:
No bro I'm using before 4/17 update all work fine but when i change to f2fs i got WiFi problems with any LP I flash same WiFi problems :(
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
New build 04/29

changes:

- updated RR to 5.4.3

- LP officially updated to 5.1.1

- (kernel) updated prima to CAF sources and synced with latest patches (LA.AF.1.1_rb1.17)

- (kernel) synced with latest security-related and other patches (details here: https://github.com/airlessproject/kernel_apq8064/commits/evo+kma)

- (kernel) using intelli-thermal as default thermal monitor

- (kernel) removed the Android Logger driver (no longer required)

- (device) changed default DPI from 480 to 445 (generally smoother and more natural)

*note - if you have problems with apps malfunctioning due to changed DPI, just erase that app's data and reboot

Thanks to [MENTION=4329876]Olivier[/MENTION] for the kernel-related suggestions and patches.

download: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952593932

Dirty flash will probably do it, just wipe caches and erase data for kernel configuration apps (if you use any) before rebooting to recovery.

If you have any problems, before doing a clean flash, try wiping just the problematic app's folder in /data/data/<app_folder> using Mount -> Data and Advanced -> File Manager in TWRP or the analog method in other recoveries.

I tested this enough to be safe to say that it is working OK at least for my device usage pattern. Please do report if you have any issues.

Cheers! :)

i just downloaded the 25/4 update and now i can see that there is 29/4 update too. my sincere request to that if possible for u to provide ota updates or just update. zip file. i m on limited bandwidth so i have to download the whole file again.

otherwise nice rom thanks and keep up for good work:good::good::good:
[Xperia Z Android Development] BohArie:
cant wait to flash it, downloading now.. great news!! hahaha its not a news anymore..
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
for this kind of update (rom version goes from 5.4.2 to 5.4.3 and Lollipop version gets fully 5.1.1), an ota file would be almost the same size as the full rom zip..

otherwise thanks for the suggestion, when there are minor changes, I'll consider building an ota update zip and provide it along with the full rom zip.

thanks for using the rom, hope you are enjoying it :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] jindal_bharat:
thanks for the info.

just installed the rom without gapps it boot up...after flashing gapps stuck on boot logo....
[Xperia Z Android Development] Zacny04:
After flashing gapps i must wait around 7 minutes to get it booted. After that booting is fast :D
[Xperia Z Android Development] dav93:
what gapps are you using?
[Xperia Z Android Development] jindal_bharat:
same here. i tried both pa gapps and bank gapps. gettin bootloop
[Xperia Z Android Development] Cr33D OrB:
@ EVeryone who has bootloop

Just flash gapps directly after Rom (?)
[Xperia Z Android Development] dav93:
yeah thats what i did since the first time... didnt work
[Xperia Z Android Development] Cr33D OrB:
Hmm..that strange ..

However any more info ?

Try that :

(NandroidBackup)

TWRP :

-Wipe data/factory reset

-Wipe/Advanced Wipe :

Cache + Dalvik + System - Confirm

-flash Rom,gapps and supersu.

(Optional : Wipe cache and dalvik again)

REBOOT

So it SHOULDN'T

be a Rom related prob..

Try above..else..idk xd
[Xperia Z Android Development] jindal_bharat:
it booted but took around 10-15 min after bank gapps and again reboot its taking 2-3 min to boot
[Xperia Z Android Development] Zacny04:
banks gapps from here: http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/?rom=banks&device=gapps

Also there is a link in OP.

for now it seems be fine. No bugs, just one fc on first boot :D
[Xperia Z Android Development] jindal_bharat:
i installed the same gapps
[Xperia Z Android Development] Cr33D OrB:
Delta (?)

Then give DeltaGapps a try ?

Im using too,FINE.

clean flash?

first boot gapps art compilation during bootanimation shouldn't take more than 5-10 minutes, with banks 04/28 build I didn't have any problems.

just be a bit more patient, let the device cool down before first boot if it's hot and try not to have it on usb charger during first boot.

also gapps must be flashed right after rom, not after once booting into it without them.

thanks bro
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
You can't download from Google Drive? Why?
[Xperia Z Android Development] mostafaz:
im on mint17.1 and couldnt down in uget ( just did with firefox)

and i think its due to my region restriction from google

but i like kernel-any other way to recieve just kernel and is that work on other cm based rom (5.1) ?

thanks :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
There is a link to the kernel's source code in the OP (it isn't officially out yet) but if you like some prebuilts (a bit older though). that could work on CM based 5.1, from the people that make it, here's a link:

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=27801

I wouldn't extract kernel img and upload it (although anyone with the zip could do it) or build just the kernel since it is not really my job to do that.

Edit: also try this link https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&confirm=vwOU&id=0B9V7LDKEfFfLcThjVl96U1lEOFk directly in Firefox for downloading the ROM..

Sh*t f*ke ROM. Every x mins shutdown wifi connection if call on Skype. My friends are very worry for bit*h hangs.

How i can setting for minimal wifi disconnecting?

I tested on clean system. This problem is resolved:

If lang is English: disconnecting after 10-17 min. interval (random)

If lang Czech or other language: disconnecting after 2-14min.. (random in presented time)
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
1) How rude of you.

2) You keep complaining on every Lollipop Z thread with this same issue and you don't even bother to provide better insight into the problem like taking logs.

3) Did you read the OP? Did somebody say this was an official and bug-free ROM?

4) Someone forces you to try Lollipop for Z before it's officially out by Sony?

5) At the moment of typing I've been testing Skype call on wifi for 30+ minutes and still haven't got disconnected.

[Xperia Z Android Development] iDroid8:
Silly question, but do I just flash SuperSU in the CM recovery to get root access?
[Xperia Z Android Development] pyramid:
Yeah if your phone is rooted.
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
The 'su' binary is present, which means the phone is rooted with this ROM, but giving actual root rights to apps isn't being done by SuperSU (which is a kind of a standard nowadays), but by CM Privacy Guard.

You may also boot the ROM at first and just install SuperSU from Play Store, it will have the same effect.
[Xperia Z Android Development] iDroid8:
Thanks. This sort of detail confuses me, thanks for explaining it.

Awesome rom but i hear one bug :\

Everything i wrote in bug report.
[Xperia Z Android Development] jindal_bharat:
i tried it in every way possible still same problem. everytime i boot the system its take 2-3 min to boot.
[Xperia Z Android Development] golfgtiedition30:
I had the same problem. Using banks gaps, clean flash. Waited at least 10mins still bootloop. I'll try other gaps and report
[Xperia Z Android Development] mostafaz:
thnx-really need this one :)

keep going
[Xperia Z Android Development] dav93:
Yeah thats what i did i in first place and didn't work.... Clean install ..wiped data cache format system and internal storage...installed ROM and gapps...wiped cache again and reboot, it took about 7-8 min after booting..android keyboard fc...Google play service fc once now seems everything okay...
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
Just tried clean flash with banks gapps 04-28, measuring from power-on -- 1.5 min of blank screen+bootanimation till RR "Upgrade in progress" screen appeared, 2 more minutes until Gapps Welcome screen = a total of 3.5 min..

NB: the black screen (~1 min.) before bootanimation is to ensure f2fs is working, even when partitions aren't formatted as such
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
So it's not a bootloop? You can actually boot the rom? 2-3 mins isn't too much considering the 1 minute black screen timeout before bootanimation I mentioned one post earlier.

After a few boots it will stabilize and boot faster.
[Xperia Z Android Development] golfgtiedition30:
Its OK it booted. I timed it and it took 15mins. That's the longest I've waited , ever and I've flashed a lot of ROMs lol.

Anyway its all good...
[Xperia Z Android Development] mostafaz:
Sorry if here is wrong place to post this one

I'd noticed that clock widget use system resource since I flashed latest build(clean)-no gaps.

I'd disabled or maybe block it with wakelock blocker !

Edit:com.CyanogenMod.lockclock v 3.4.0

Also sometimes screen flashed a little.like a black screen showed quickly.( I think its coz keyboard.this happened in type area

Keyboard fc at first boot
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
strange...
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
I think that widget can only drain battery if it's searching for your location in order to display weather. Go to its settings and disable Display weather in Weather Panel, it shouldn't hold a wakelock anymore.

what gapps are you using? I tried delta gapps and bank gapps. gettin bootloop....
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
for me a clean flash with banks 04-28 build worked fine, around 4 minutes from kernel logo to gapps welcome screen.

try clean reflash and wait for it for 10-15 mins (idk why for some people the first boot with gapps takes that long), 'cause it may not be a bootloop.
[Xperia Z Android Development] d1mmgvld:
I try it ....I waiting over 15 mins after clean flash...Rom work fine, but after setting up the same programms and rebooting,i get bootlop or updating system services....every time,when Im reboot my phone.

That's the problem.

Sorry 4 my bad English:)
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
how exactly are you setting up the same programs? are you maybe restoring a titanium or other backup (possibly a backup made in other ROM or Android version)?
[Xperia Z Android Development] BrateloSlava:
Some errors.

Try - Result -
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
Yea mate this is included in OP as an issue since first build. This is a sepolicy error and nothing much can be done. If one has to set Vibration Intensity, they must use Trickster MOD.
[Xperia Z Android Development] d1mmgvld:
No,i set up viper4android and SElinuxMode Changer.

I never use Titanium backup,and i dont have any backups for other ROMs
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
oh well that may be a problem.

I only managed to setup v4a and make SELinux permissive with these Terminal commands

su

setenforce 0

which holds only until reboot;

idk how that particular SELinuxmode Changer works, it may be that app actually causing the bootloops, which is by no means a ROM/device issue.

my advice is either try other app that sets selinux permissive, or use the terminal command (maybe make a script and make a shortcut on desktop).

I have tried making an init.d script for making selinux permissive to launch at every boot but it can't make the change at init.d execution time, although the script works after boot.

Generally my kernel is and will be enforcing SELinux by default because a lot of vulnerabilities arise when it's permissive.
[Xperia Z Android Development] d1mmgvld:
So,my installed SElinuxMode Changer - that the problem?)
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
Most probably yes. Try uninstalling it and see if you got bootloops. If you don't have, try to find other app for that or use the terminal commands as I wrote before.

Anyway in general, app issues aren't a topic in ROM threads.. It is enough that the ROM boots and all its functionality is intact apart from using any third-party apps.

If a third-party app has a problem when using some ROM it's the app dev's problem and not ROM builder/dev's.
[Xperia Z Android Development] d1mmgvld:
How many time you wait for the first reboot,after clean flash this ROM?

I again clean flash the last build of RR ROM,wait 15 mins,apply language settings,and reboot without installing any programs......and waiting for a lot time
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
really mate I don't know why for you it takes so much for the first boot (15 mins) and the first reboot you say even longer....

I'm currently using it, and tested both clean and dirty flash, and for clean flash the first boot after flashing is 4 mins including having flashed Gapps, if it's without them it will probably be a lot quicker.

The second and subsequent boots are also normally timed, getting shorter after 2-3 reboots.

can you tell me which recovery are you using, and how exactly are you performing cleaning before flash?

edit: do you by chance have the phone on dock or usb charger while these first two boots?

BUG :: Lulzacitve CPU governor Mis-behaves

Dear dev [MENTION=5396196]airlessproject[/MENTION],

THe CPU governor lulzactive misbehaves, it keeps frequency to max ie. 1728 and it doesn't change. In some cases it fixes CPU frequency to some intermediate frequency and it doesn't change. Kindly, test it if possible. I had same issue wih other kernels who have implemented lulzactive. I guess this governor doesn't support our device.

Peace
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
Thanks a lot for the info mate! I'll test it and I'll probably just remove it if it isn't compatible with our arm/msm architecture.

In the meantime, users should try avoiding using it.

edit: issue added to OP.
[Xperia Z Android Development] airlessproject:
ok folks let's clear this up;

everyone facing long first and second boot (even bootloops) on clean flash should first:

- make a nandroid backup if the previous rom worked properly

- ensure he's wiped everything properly, that means formatting /cache and wiping data+dalvik-cache without wiping /data/media, even formatting /system, just in case

(this in TWRP is done by 1) unchecking Settings -> "Use rm-rf instead of formatting" and 2) Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> check system, data, cache and dalvik-cache -> Swipe to Wipe)

- flash ROM, flash Gapps, flash SuperSU

- check if the phone is hot after flashing (e.g. from making a backup right before the flashing or similar), and if it is, let it cool down a bit before rebooting

- make sure he doesn't do the said two boots while the phone is on usb charger or dock

If all of this is done, it is very unlikely to have a slow first+second boot.

Also, when one installs programs and/or restores data from e.g. Play Store on the first boot, the second boot (first reboot) after that is naturally going to take longer, but not extremely so.

If you report this stuff, I'll safely assume that you have read and followed the aforementioned instructions.

Thanks :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] farahzadfarahzad:
I installed the rom around hour ago had wiped system data n cash and dalvik rom booted so quickly maybe 5 minutes thanks [MENTION=5396196]airlessproject[/MENTION]
[Xperia Z Android Development] acutraaq:
what gapps did you use?
[Xperia Z Android Development] ratworks:
I installed this a few hours ago, no issues all really smooth.

Having read what was happening here, I did a clean flash (used the basic TWRP factory reset thing), added the RR, GApps (gapps-510-base-20150422-2-signed, from DeltaDroid), and SuperSU zips, and flashed them.

I had just settled down for a long reboot time - I was going to time it - when the boot finished. Took about 3 minutes to get to this stage, and 20 minutes later, while I went thru doing all my usual settings, all my apps had downloaded from G Play.

In general, I don't think dirty flashing is worth it timewise, especially if there's any significant changes in the ROM/kernel - as there is here.

I've even given up on Titanium backups - it seems just as quick, and safer to download from the Play Store, leaving aside the data.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Greg77970:
Hi, thanks for the update ;)

I flashed it this morning and since this time, I don't have any problem so far :)

I wiped cache, system and dalvik cache, then I flashed the ROM, it booted in 3min max with the time to optimize apps. ;)

Then boot recovery, I flashed Banks gapps, and ROM booted in 2min with optimization of new apps.

Good work mate, keep it up :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] d1mmgvld:
I use TWRP recovery.

Before flashing i do factory reset and unplug my phone for the usb cable,and this way i flash all roms i used before.

P.S RR build 2015.04.24 worked without any kind of problems(bootloop,long reboot) on my phone.

Anyway,thank u 4 u work)
[Xperia Z Android Development] orangejuice43:
app not compatible?

This is a very strange error, I've gone from CM12 to this ROM and its great! But I seem to have lost some apps, and can't download them again as play store seems to think my device is incompatible.... an example of this is Tinder :P

any thoughts anyone?

p.s. I know I can install via adb, I just wonder what the cause is, incase it happens for more apps. I've tried changing the DPI but it was already at default and I gave it a go at higher and lower DPIs with no change.
