[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Miro24h:
Few days ago i was searching for a way to root my phone(5.0.2) without loosing my data or anything so first of all i backed up my software into ftf format(i used the usual method by downloading the update from pc companion and converting it to ftf with flashtool) i tested it by flashing an older ftf then flashing my backedup ftf without wiping data. The phone was working perfectly as i expected. The next step was rooting this ftf from pc i searched for many methods i only found to use the prf creator i followed every step exept adding the dualrecovery flashable.zip ( i added the ftf created and SuperSu flashable.zip i marked every box exept the sign one) and then i pressed create my flashable.zip was ready. I tried the latest dualrecovery installer but it didn't work to get me into recovery. I downgraded my phone (4.2.2) so i can get into recovery without root then i searched my flashable.zip then i flashed it after it was done i cleared the dalvik cache partition the pressed reboot system(i was using Philz recovery). The phone went off and didn't start again.:crying: i tried to connect it to pc but it doesn't recognize it even it doesn't charge(no LED) when connected to wall charger. Doesn't vibrate when pressing any buttons combination or when pressing the red button near the sim card. When i get my ears near the middle top of the phone i hear a faint sound like beep like a timed bomb is ticking?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] slicetwo:
I wanted to get people's opinions/experiences with running rooted Lollipop without Xposed vs. 4.4.2 with Xposed. I've been using a GS3 on 4.4.2 with Xposed for a while know. I love the few modules I use (no lock home screen, wanam, amplify) and I'm not to keen to stop using them. However, with my GS5 coming this week, I'm trying to decide if I should stay on 4.4.2 or update (via muniz method) to rooted 5.0 (which Xposed won't work on).

Anyone here with any opinions on it either way? Is Lollipop such a huge step up on the GS5 that I'll enjoy the good stuff more than missing Xposed?

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] ButtonBoy:
If you bought an AT&T S5, you will be frustrated and disappointed by how little you can do when compared to your S3. I have a great deal of buyers remorse about my AT&T GS5, the crypto'd boot loader is the bane of my existence. Having said that, the upgrade to Lollipop is very nice, and the root essential. I wish I had Xposed, but I can wait. I would have rather been able to load up CM12.1- just sayin'
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] slicetwo:
Thanks for the insight. I actually took cm off my s3 as I preferred the stability of TW and don't really mind the skin that much, esp with wanamkit on it. I had about a year where I flashed **** like a madman, but got tired of instabilities and redoing my phone all the time, so the locked bootloader doesn't bother me as much.

Just for ****s and giggles, I put cm12 on my gs3 today and hated it. The colors, the new volume modes, the way notifications show up on the lock screen, and other stuff, I almost immediately switched back to tw 4.4.2. Knowing that I can downgrade from 5.0 using the Muniz method makes me think I'll try it out for a bit and see what happens.

Curious, do you leave GPS, wifi, bt, and all that jazz on all the time on you s5? How's the battery life? What would you say are the biggest improvements of 5 over 4.4?
[Zooper Widget Templates] Kihlberg:
Hi there.

I am trying to create a widget that displays some text that is updated from tasker. I would like the text to be colored by some logic defined in tasker. So in tasker I have a variable %Text1 that contains the following "[c=#FFAAAA]Mytext[/c]".

I have a task that updates my rich text box with the text above: Zooper Widget Pro Variable: Configuration #TTEXT1# = %Text1

Now I expected to see a pink "Mytext" in my widget but instead I see "[c=#FFAAAA]Mytext[/c]".

If I copy the text manually into Zooper Widget, it displays correctly.

What am I doing wrong?

Regards, Jesper.
[Zooper Widget Templates] CopKiller76:
Try to use c=#ffffaaaa or c=ffffaaaa sometimes zooper acts very strange if there is no alpha.
[Zooper Widget Templates] Kihlberg:
Thanks for your reply, sadly it didn´t seem to make any difference..
[Zooper Widget Templates] Kihlberg:
It seems like Zooper only parses the text fields once, so any codes from tasker are not parsed. That meant I had to split up my text into several text boxes and use advanced parameters for coloring.

facebook messenger wahtsapp works perfectly on it and i tried some games their good too

music sound perfectly on it

and the pac futures are great and all working fine !:good:

And when the phone start to get real laggy the screen begins to flick on the sides..

but it takes some time to boot with the upgrading apps on the start too...

the camera focus is laggy >>their was 5.1 roms with a better one i think

that's is all i've got on this rom

thank you and keep up the gd work :D

Edit: i used smartassv2 and it's a little bit laggy

hit thanks if i helped you it's free you know !! :p

As far as illumination_service is considered.

U can port it via github

I saw many devices using sony illumination_service

Just search illumination on review.cyanogenmod.org

And the link I gave u is of a full.port of illumination_service with music light beat effect. I think u didn't check it
[Xperia SP Android Development] tomzzi:
Same here... No mobile data with fix. With stock or tangerine kernel. How to flash gapps on default kernel after reboot (cyanogen recovery)? Installation aborted?

[Xperia SP Android Development] [==)BULLET(==]:
This - > http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53503568&postcount=30 And the post above it

The illumination service fix in Xperia U is used for lighting led bar when the screen is unlocked or the buttons are touched (for notification the device has a small led near the front camera). As far as the rhythmic lights are concerned the fix IS NOT FOR THAT(see the link above).

All in all this fix is of NO USE TO US.

Correct me if I am wrong but that's what I understood by reading the whole thread.

Sent from XSP using my hands!
[Xperia SP Android Development] daniyal.dssb:
Dude you aren't getting me

Once illumination service is ported, which I think is not so difficult because it had been ported by Xperia U dev. Then music beat light effect and photo album light effect is.not a problem. Just what we will be needing is semcilluminationsettings and we will get fully working led bar.

Current problem is porting illumination_service which u.can see in the screenshot that it's built in for stock rom

Oh boy, battery life is awesome. Got almost a day and a half on this rom.

As I said u don't use ur fone much and its on standby for most of the time.....There is no way that u get a week of battery backup even on a stock rom.....

[Xperia SP Android Development] OsGhaly:
Battery life is great but on the other hand, sometimes when phone goes into deep sleep, it disconnects from network and if someone tried to call me he will receive "phone is not available or switched off" message .. This happened also with RR M1 ROM
[Xperia SP Android Development] Furrydaus:
Updating both PAC and RR pretty soon. Just need to fix some weird audio speaker bug issue before it becomes stable. It seems to be a Linux issue. Whenever I use Zorin, it seems to not have any sort of audio. Same for the builds I generate. What is this madness??

Anyways here's the front end user experience change log for RR and PAC:

PAC:

1) Fixed data

2) Improve Overall Speed

3) Increase WiFi Speed

4) Increase Wall Charging Speed (In the stock kernel)

RR:

1) Update to RR 5.4.4

2) Update RIL to 5.1

3) Improve Application Handling Processes

4) Improve Brightness Modifier so it doesn't flicker as much

5) Faux Sound, Fix Performance Governed and more for the Stock Kernel

6) Improve WiFi Speeds

7) Fix up Touch Screen Calibration when charging

8) Experimental Illumination Binaries

9) Latest Patches from AOSP upstream

10) Philz/TWRP inclusion
[Xperia SP Android Development] Furrydaus:
In addition,

For PAC users, it'll be an OTA update.

For RR users, it'll be a full build but with 2 versions. (LR2 and MR2)

What's the difference? Find out more when the new thread is up ;)
[Xperia SP Android Development] :

i'm sorry for posting this (off topic) i know you don't have a lot of time but can just update the OP that the PAC-ROM was updated today and like [MENTION=6163210]TheAvengingTITAN[/MENTION] say can you give us a Brief changelog about the fixes and patches cuz there are alot of people who can't just change the rom too see what's new ..... thank you for you great work (You enter the joy in our hearts :D)

keep up the good work ! :good:
[Xperia SP Android Development] TheAvengingTITAN:
I'll give it a shot :P

I won't be able to give a specific changelog but I can try to point out what has improved.
[Xperia SP Android Development] creative21:
wanted to download now, but server is offline :/
[Xperia SP Android Development] TheAvengingTITAN:
So I flashed that version and successfully booted up

Then System UI kept on FCing that's all that you could see on the screen. Then it started to bootloop during the FC so I each time I pressed "OK" it would show "PAC ROM" then again system UI would FC. I hope this isn't a problem only I'll experience.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Furrydaus:
Changelog is practically everything in the Resurrection Remix ROM device tweaks. Everything works haha.

As for SystemUI FC, you probably got a bad copy of the ROM. If you checked my twitter, I actually was busy swapping out new (and old) hardware into my desktop so it is more quiter and powerful. I also swapped a router here and there. Everything should be fine for you folks to download again. :)

Make sure GAPPS is by [MENTION=5772029]jajb[/MENTION] and use TWRP please! :)
[Xperia SP Android Development] TheAvengingTITAN:
Thanks for the confirmation! :)

I don't use Twitter that much tbh... More of a Facebook person lol.

if you wanna easier way in my opinion flash tangerine via fastboot ...then reboot to recovery that is in tangerine and then flash the ROM you want

i don't have a link for twrp img ...but in the tangerine thread they said (If you had previously flashed the old PhilZ with Rashr, you need to flash stock fotakernel with FlashTool to use TWRP or the new PhilZ.) so it's better to flash the tangerine.elf via fastboot it's much easier and safer i think :)
