haha i would like to tell you something :p

when you flash the rom the script will completely formats the system and them push the system

so what ever the xposed is.. that too will be cleared

the reason i have not given the xposed as an option with aroma

( the reason i format the system is... the old apps may cause conflict to the new one or may cause bugs )

i hope you got me ;)

just flash and in aroma select wipe option

nothing more :p

its completely impossible to have a conflict ;)

if you change something with pimp

then with kernel auditor it matter nothing

the latest settings will be applied to old application settings ( something like overwrite the old settings from pimp)

so there will be no conflict

i love this xperia z1 community because you people help each other

good thing guys

have a great time
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] [Fenix]:
Same for me coming from 2.2

Did a full wipe, selected all the things with aroma...

The bootanimation freezes and phone stuck on bootloop

Flashed kernel manually doesn't work, at last for me

Wtf i'm doing wrong? lol

Will try again after a ftf flash...

------------------------------------------------------EDIT------------------------------------------------------

All working fine now, the problem was cause i did a full wipe lol
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] venkat kamesh:
Actually there was bug with partitions permissions with lollipop

if you try to wipe completely even with internal memory

then the internal card partition permissions will changed.. so you can just work with it

but system files (Android ) data folders cannot be created this will cause the bug of

booting the booting animations and reboots

so that i had added wipe option with aroma

my script will delete the internal data memory without any affect and clean data

so i said in instructions as ( if you need wipe do it from aroma )

nothing to worry about it

just flash stock .108 or what ever you like.. but should have recovery

and then flash the zip nothing more to do.. every thing go right

good luck

FTF can be downloaded via Flashtool, just go to Devices -> check Updates -> Sony Xperia Z1 -> <Click to your model, ie C6903> -> Download any Customized you like, for example Customized UK, that one is .270

It will download and build FTF with Stock ROM and you can flash it through Flashtool, in flashmode (hold volume down and then plug in cable). After that, I recommend unlocking bootloader, flashing ROCKZ1L kernel and install ROM through recovery there.

[MENTION=3453812][Fenix][/MENTION]

I get bootloop after install sometimes too, can't explain, but it happens when flashing through TWRP recovery. When installing through the other recovery in ROCKZ1L kernel (CWM I think, just press volume up when booting), ROM is installed correctly.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] SavageRobot:
Thanks, Just downloaded .270 from Xperifirm and following this guide http://www.xperiablog.net/2014/08/16/create-your-own-ftf-firmware-files-using-xperifirm-and-flashtool-guide/ got as far as finding the "FILE" files but they aren't anywhere in the files downloaded :/ Does anyone have a generic UK ftf or EE one or help me understand what I'm doing wrong please? [MENTION=3453812][Fenix][/MENTION] are you able to get into recovery in the boot loop?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] [Fenix]:
Yup but i'm unlocked with custom kernel...
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] SavageRobot:
Beat me to my post, thanks [MENTION=6571774]KingKoca[/MENTION] (won't let me hit thanks for some reason) downloading as we speak. Unfortunately I can't unlock the bootloader, it won't let me :( so after flashing the ftf (if it will stay in flash mode long enough) will reboot but assume no ROM will be there? Hopefully recovery is not lost
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] adamkx7xdesire:
Does anyone can confirm any improvement of memory management comparing to older rom version? I had huge memory leak problems so I decided to move back kitkat...

Send from my little beauty :)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] KingKoca:
Flashtool will download complete ROM and before flashing, there will be options which parts of ROM you wish to install. You can deselect kernel and it will keep your recovery intact.

---------- Post added at 09:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 PM ----------

Early versions of Lollipop ROMS had problems with memory leaks, now it is OK, many of them are fixed and maybe venkat added more fixes to ROM / Kernel then are in stock ROM. But memory leaks are in 5.1 also, so I think for no leaks you should stick to KitKat. Absolute confirmation will be after few days of testing, now our phones don't even have 24 hours uptime...

Clean install , ticked LTE, but i do not have LTE. -

could somebody please tell me how to fix it? (i know that somewhere was solution for this issue, but i cant found :/ )

rest of functionality seems works OK for me

thank you
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] SavageRobot:
Fantastic, thanks very much, downloading part 6 of 7 now. So will tick wipe everything and only tick to exclude kernel. Will report back, thanks.

Dave Mark Manantan from Facebook provided a small info

instead of running the hash code

install this app Click here to Download

open the application

You will enter to new screen and go to the end

Turn Off the radio

check in network type :TD SCDMA LTE CDMA EVDO GSM/wcdma

After Selecting the option as above picture

Now Turn on the Radio

Now LTE should work

Thank you guys and sorry for making you work for the fix

Silly question. How can I change dimensions of the navbar? Is there any mod to make it "auto-hide" in the UI then swipe to use the navbar? I know there's probably some mods like this out there but I rather know something previously tested if possible.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] SavageRobot:
hmm well I was able to finally get back to a stable 108 build, rooted, SU, recovery, flashed the rom again and back to bootloop!! I don't understand whats going wrong. I did notice at the end of the aroma installer the last entry was something about root and it said failed?? Very strange, will have to try and go back to 2.2 :/
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Kespa76:
Hello,

I want to try this rom but it is said in the instructions that a lolipop rom is needed before flashing.

I'm already on a custom rom (RomAur 9.0, android 4.4.4). How can i install a stock lollipop rom ?

Thank you and sorry for my english.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Funkmasterchilla:
From what I recall, you must first flash stock "official" LP before using custom LP based roms. Try, upgrading to LP with Sony Companion on your PC (you can also find stock LP in General Z1 thread or Android develpment I think), then installing this rom.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] robisrobis:
Hi

I think you should only install

Kitkat2Lollipop

run IT and after that install this rom (wipe only in Aroma installer not via recovery, because you got a bootloop)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Kespa76:
Yes but i actually have a custom rom, so do i have to relock my phone to flash a stock rom ?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] vctrrl:
You can use Flashtool along with Xperifirm to dowload/create FTF and then flash a LP version.

You will need to go into

fastboot/flashmode.

So the problem is still big. Anyway I don't see any point to stick with lollipop :( all these really awesome tweaks and mods by venkat are on kitkat(at least those I need)...

-flash v3.0 rom (lite unlocked c6903 with 4g options)

-flash drm restore for x-reality

-flash MoAdblock

-flash 3.1 kernel

Bug report is solid... it doesn't happen on all sites, but when browsing for example xda forum, chrome is laggy and also memory is exhausted and default xperia launches is killed and "desktop" backround is all black.

In general, from my experience: stock ROMs are bugy when comes to Lollipop. There's no perfect lollipop stock based ROM. The best what you can do is:

Install stock based KitKat ROM - there are many great roms with awesome battery life / performance. Sony keyboard (the best keyboard in Android space), Sony apps (Album + walkman, one of the best ones in their category), great battery life, stable. If you don't need Lollipop user interface and news and you are hapyy with everything what KK offers, you are satisfied. You shouldn't upgrade, because you can't be happier than you are. All other options will make you suffer.

Install CM based ROM such PAC MAN or Candy. If you want new features, these ROMs are perfect and stable for daily use. Not so great about battery life, bat state-of-the-art, the newest AOSP upgrades, and very smooth and not memory demanding. CM based ROMs are 300 MB in size (compared to 1700 MB ROCKZ1L and 1200 MB Stock) and are very fast. User experience with this ROMS is the best one. But Google play won't offer you Sony apps, so if you want them, you need to flash them manually.

Install stock ROM - No root, no nothing. Pure stock. Work as intended, no serious bugs. Can't go wrong with this setup, but if you're geek and need to tune your device, this option is not for you.

Install stock based Lollipop ROM - it's bad, but it is the current situation. Sadly, no stock Lollipop based ROM is stable enough. There are minor and major problems which makes ROMS unusable for specific user. Lets's say that 85% is working great so you are happiest in your entire life, but 15% of that ROM is making you want to kill yourself.

Hey all

As always this new update works great. New features are cool although I dont use them, so i uninstalled them (lock animations etc).

Besides this, i see almost no difference between 3.0 and 2.2. But 3.0 installed xposed automatically and my some games dont work because i use "unauthorized programs". So i switched back to 2.2

I'll stay on 2.2 until you give the option in aroma to install or not inatall xposed and modules. It works good for me :)

Also it would be good to have more options in aroma for apps that are installed but arent necesaary
