Using this guide: http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z-ultra/general/guide-rooting-xperia-z-ultra-lollipop-t3112214

rooting my C6833 with 14.5.A.0.242 worked like a charm. I just find that KingRoot app (version 4.0.0 in my case) somewhat suspicious,

because my virus scanner warned about the download location, the app is in Chinese, and it required network (WiFi) access.

My phone's bootloader was already unlocked (using Flashtool 0.9.18.6, which required the official Sony unlock code), but AFAIK that would not have been needed for rooting.

Hello

I updated from Kitkat yesterday to Lollipop and I'm having a few issues.

Any Google based application won't load. It'll sometimes show the little loading circle, but won't actually do anything. Or it'll just show a white screen.

(I have tried clearing the data and cache and uninstalled the updates for the Play Store to no avail).

Some stock applications won't update, (Notebook, Video Editor, Voice mate, Etc) They'll look like they're downloading their respective updates, but no progress will actually happen.

I waited around 10 or so minutes before giving up.

I'm not really sure what the issues are being caused by, and I haven't been to lucky in finding any fixes or even people with the same problems as me.

If someone can help me out, that would be great. Factory reset is my last resort.

I am on stock LG G2. D800.

Thanks in advance!
[AT&T LG G2] Silentwidow:
I had similar issues, I just rebooted a few times and that seemed to fix it.

I would say if it doesn't work after rebooting, you may need to FR.

Mine was having trouble updating(was getting errors) so I ended up going back to stock 4.4, updating to 20Y, factory resetting, then updating to 30, and I had that issue with the play store, but rebooting after that fixed it for me.
[AT&T LG G2] Wezurii4694:
Thanks for your reply.

I sideloaded the Play Store and Play Services and just rebooted my phone, and the Play store is working somewhat. App updates don't seem to want to update.

I then downgraded from the sideloaded Playstore and Play Services, and the Playstore is still working, but it doesn't want to download the updated version of the Playstore, even though I get the notice of a new version being available. So now I'm not sure if I should wait for something to happen, or what.

[AT&T LG G2] Swetnes:
I do know that the behavior of the notification led has changed. On Kitkat the led would blink about 1 per sec. With Lollipop it will blink twice then a 10 sec pause then 2 quick blinks, then 10 sec pause, etc. Also the notification led will only work with screen off or on lock screen. I hope this helps.

Edit: I did notice the pattern changes with

I have been messing around wasting whole of my days looking for a solution.......here's what I have done so far.....

I have tried

mp3agic

I copied the code from the documentation and pasted it in Java scriptlet......took care of the errors and now the task runs for as long as the timeout allows and then the required mp3 doesn't change.....like as if the code got stuck......

Also tried

Jauditagger

And then

Also got help from this link

[Android Apps and Games] Jertlok:
I read your request once again and I realized that this is not what you managed to get! To do what you want is needed Gravity Box! But Xposed doesn't work on 5.1, isn't it?!

First of all you have to download an app called Secure Settings. You can find this app on PlayStore -> Secure Settings on PlayStore

It Will Allows you to enable some not available features on Tasker (on Lollipop).

Once you have downloaded Secure Settings you have to create a simple task.. In this case "Mobile Data Toggle".

Open Tasker

Go inside the section of Task and create a new Task

Tap on + to add a new action and choose Plugin -> Secure Settings. This is what you will see

[*] Then tap on "Actions and then Mobile Data. See here: 1-

2-

[*] Now you have to activate "Toggle".

[*] Go back and choose an icon for the task. 1-

2-

[*] Now the task is ready, what you have to do is to create a Widget that will trigger this task. Close Tasker (Going back until gets closed) and go on your home screen

[*] Make a long press on your home screen and select Tasker as Widget

as you can see there are two Widget - select the first one "Task"

[*] You will be asked to choose a specific task, select the one you have created

[*] Once you have selected the task that has to be performed go back until tasker gets closed - on your home screen you will see the new Widget (with a 1x1 dimension) click on it and Enjoy it! :)

Did you have problem creating the Task?

Here you can download 2 solutions:

Install the standalone Application. Note: it requires Secure Settings to work but not tasker. Download it here Mobile Data Toggle

Import the XML Task. Download it Here Mobile Data Toggle.

I hope you have find my post useful! :)

[Android Apps and Games] forest.gimp:
I've got an Olympus EP5 camera which can be controlled via wifi by an app called OIShare. I've also got very limited hand movement making pressiing the camera shutter button very difficult. Using Tasker and AutoVoice it's quite doable to say the magic trigger word and have the phone take a picture on the camera - if the screen is on.

Keeping the screen always on will suck through battery. Turning on/off the screen and loading app will create delays. Not good when out and about for hours looking to capture 'a moment' at quick notice.

I'd like to control the camera with the phones screen off. Clearly this can not be done by a tap command; the screen is blank. Is it possible though using 'Intent'?

If so, great but if not please let me know and put me out of my misery and save my hair :) .
[Android Apps and Games] wyt18:
Great idea, here are some things I've been thinking of implementing:

1. Use Tasker as a replacement for Link Bubble or Flynx Browser. When clicking on links, use Tasker to parse the links to send them to different apps / browsers based algorithms that process the link content/domain name/etc., which would be much more flexible/customizable than Link Bubble and Flynx (This could require hacking Tasker's permissions to allow it to intercept VIEW intents ... hard, but doable probably via scripting?)

2. Use Tasker together with AutoVoice and sqlite editing (via script) to send messages to specified contact list recipients in the background (without opening the messaging apps). I'm able to do this for WhatsApp, but would like to do the same for Hangouts and MailWise (my daily driver email app)

3. Create a task that automates the process of integrating all new App updates to System every time an App is updated. This would save a lot of SD card space for people who don't do this today, and save a lot of time vs. individually going into Link2SD and integrating each app then rebooting the android UI

I could think of many more, but would love to hear your thoughts on these three!

I have to figure out how OlShare works... Anyway do you wanna take a pic with the screen off? I don't think it's possible since the app doesn't continue to run with screen off, isn't it?
[Android Apps and Games] forest.gimp:
Working with screen off is the goal, much like the home automation demo on youtube where he turns electrical devices on/off by voice control even when his phone screen is off. With screen off, the phone could be in my pocket and out of the way. Having to hold camera is hard enough without the worry of accidental phone screen touches.

OIShare does add extra difficulty because it relies on wifi so for greater simplicity and since I'm still learning Tasker I have been testing with Camera ZoomFX and stock camera apps. I like to start simple by getting the task working with screen on then progress to harder bits.

The problem I discover is that AutoInput plugin does not work with all screen buttons. Using Easy Setup wizard does not find Element.ID of every button and without an Element.ID then you can not send an Intent.

PS: I have just thought of something. Does Intent only work if screen is on and app is running in the foreground or can an Intent be sent to an app sitting in the background from lock screen? I don't use lock screen now but would be fine if it at least prevents accidental screen presses.

Hi,

For those who are rooted and with a custom kernel, I have faced the same problem recently and after playing a bit with CPU configuration on "Pimp My Z1" app it seemed to work again.

First thing I did was reboot the device, that way I was sure that no app I've opened was draining my battery.

Second I opened the "Pimp My Z1" app and changed the configuration of CPU to:

Also set the max clock of GPU to 320MHz.

As for the power management config, I've set this way:

Today I'm with 82% battery but with 59 minutes of screen on time (~70% brightness) and some more of music playing. Also using Stamina Mode. Heats a bit, but doesn't show any draining symptom.

If you still face overheating problems, I suggest downloading the Greenify app and hibernating many apps. That worked for me on S4 when it was with a similar problem.

All the best,

~Lord

Hi guys, long time since I've been on here.

I have a S4 i9500, and I was having mega drainage issues. I installed Novalaunch, and disabled the samsung touchwiz crap - battery usage is SOO much better already. I have had lollipop for a few months now, and I did factory reset it, twice, and install all the apps manually via google play. It got so bad, that i HAD to run my phone with power save on ALL THE TIME, and even then, it would be pretty hungry. the other day, I ran it on full power(1.6ghz) and it chewed 40% in around 1 hour. All I was doing was had Pandora music on.

I have a tool called 'Cool Tools', and I monitored the IO activity bfore, and it show pretty high utilization all the time, even with the screen off. With Novalauncher, its hitting rock bottom(low), even while using it..

Its soo good now, to give you an idea - I charged my phone last night(around 9pm), and restarted it and unplugged the charger. I ran it on full power(power save OFF), over night, with data on, and it only chewed 15%. MASSIVE difference. I'm at 60% now, and I've been running Pandora for at least 3 hours now, and using some other apps as well. Its been 14 hours or so already.

Xperia z1 battery drain issue or problem

I FOUND THE MAIN CULPRIT FOR BATTETY DRAIN AFTER 5.1.1 LOLLIPOP UPDATE. Its the overheat control app. As you all may know that after first update from jellybean 4.2 to kitkat 4.4, the phone tends to get overheated while multitasking. Thus overheat control app eats up the battery and drain it when the phone starts getting hot.

I REQUEST ALL THE DEVELOPERS TO CHECK IT AND PROVE IF I M WRONG.

I m sure that Google will find the answer to the battery drain issue fix in overheat control app.
