Yep, unless you want your device to live it's own life. :D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
Buahahahahaha I guess I could give it a try and see what happens [emoji23] [emoji23] [emoji23]

Hybrid Kernel will still be applicable?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
Hardware realted libs are from GPE, so the kernel is working fine.

Gonna update it with a rom with some sweet futures ;)

But now I think that I need to sleep, as I spend whole previous night on ROM.

,then slept for 3 hours, visited university, then came back to work on ROM, and still working right now. More than 12 hours out of last 24.

Caffeine+Nicotine Diet keeps me awake :silly::silly::silly:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
Get some sleep man! I hear you though, with 2 kids, work, and Metal Gear out I barely have 4 hours sleep per night [emoji23]

But seriously, nobody is gonna die if your rom is updated a day or two later, we're here because your rom is awesome, not to cause you insomnia! [emoji6] [emoji16]

Good night mate, and DON'T DREAM ABOUT KERNELS! [emoji23]
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mawks:
Just to say thanks for this great rom! I`ve been using it for a few days and it replaces everything that stock has to offer, but with great speed and longer battery life! Perfect job!

The only issue that I have is with tones. From time to time, ringtone and notification tone have small pop/crack at the beginning of playback. Is anyone else have same problem?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
No problems on mine, but then again I mostly keep my phone on vibrate...

I Just tried it, but it rings normally, no pops on playback.

Have you increased the volume (output gain) in some way via xposed or similar??
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mawks:
No, default configuration. When I open ringtone chooser, every second or third tone has pop on startup.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
That's something new.

Clean install I hope?

And by default configuration you mean no extra mods were installed?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
About new version:

Found a deep sleep issue, which is not kernel related.

So, I am working on it,as that one is important...

No ETA, as this one will take time.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
Just tried again at full volume, no problems here.

At this point I would say it's either a sw issue (probably following a dirty update or ancient prop mods) or a hw issue (speaker blown).

We're waiting, but not pressing, no worries there [emoji6]
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mawks:
Yes, clean install and no extra mods or tweaks. Reverted to stock twrp backup and no issues there. Weird...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Godaemon:
Could someone please check Tune In Radio and verify that the sound through internet streaming is OK? Because in my setup sound isn't clear

Sent from my Xperia Z Ultra
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
Will continue development as soon as I will get my hand on latest gpe sources.

But...don't worry something cool is coming from me....
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] gurung_vishwas1:
Just got first random reboot with this rom, Phone was idle condition. Is this with me only?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
Aaaaand now you have me waiting [emoji51]

I got one once from going to developer settings to change the animation percentage, but then after rebooting It worked normally.

It just froze on me that one time, but no random reboot so far.

I never bothered to tell about the freeze because I thought it wasn't relevant. ￼
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
Can be kernel, usually rising voltage helps :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] saenz4931:
Can I flash this ROM on GPE?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
I'm pretty sure that no, you can't.

GPe and Stock Ultras have different partition schemes, so you'll end up bricking your device 100%.

Try one of the roms available in the GPe subforum. [emoji6]
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] saenz4931:
GPe doesn't have any good roms.. Most of them are abandoned.. Unfortunately I sent my ultra for repair at Sony and they are sending me a gpe as they not longer making this one
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] golfinggino:
The cm12.1 rom for the gpe is a great rom and gets updated daily
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
Well, I can do GPE version if anyone willing to help me, as I don't have a gpe phone.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
Today Gmail has gone bananas, here's a screenshot:

From 70% to 33% in like 1 hour. [emoji33]

WTF is going on with Gmail today?? Look at this:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] redrivera:
I'm syncing 3 gmail accounts and one exchange address through the Gmail app but I'm not experiencing anything anomalous at the moment. Might be an isolated case, independent of the rom
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] curiouso9:
Awesome, hoping something related to RRO aka theme, haha

whatever it is, keep it up! ;)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] saenz4931:
Awesome man.. How can I help you
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
PM me. :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] DarkSandmaN:
can someone upload me bootanimation.zip from this rom? its in system/media/ . i changed to HybridRom Concept EditioN and i dont like bootanimation :)

Where is the download link ? Cannot find it ! Please !

---------- Post added at 01:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:56 PM ----------

Sorry, can anyone post me the link for the rom? I cannot find it. Thank you !
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Lukijs:
There is new Hybrid rom, look in amdroid development section
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] DarkSandmaN:
I try`d a lot of ROMs from XDA for ZU and this one is winner by mile. new hybrid is ok but not as awesome like this one.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
Rom is based on Gpe, so.. :D

I've got a guy who had it on UB working, so I would like to know on which rom you were before flashing mine.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Galaxtus:
Currently TWRP is available on SlimROM.

Still no use. Still at black screen and it reboots automatically. Everything loads but just black screen with Nav bar & Status bar & it randomly reboots itself.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
Interesting. Can you try to flash over stock rom?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Galaxtus:
I am not new to flashing stuffs. Maybe this version is not compatible with C6802 (also i had the same issue with Scrubbers ROM aswell). It might be related something else. I have flashed all other ROM's only GPe version doesnot flash or work.

Thanks for the help. If anyone have tried this on C6802 pls enlighten me.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
I know you are not new to flashing stuff.

I tested yesterday on my friend's c6802, and before that it was on stock 270 Rom.

That's why I suggest to flash over a stock Rom.

That c6802 was mine before, I remember flashing GPe over cm based Rom caused bootloop.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Galaxtus:
Mine is Indian version. Dont know if thats the case. Wanted some pure android. As CM rom have Wifi issue.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
The thing is, this installation is block based. It means that Rom have exact copy of your file system. Some of the CM based Rom, might create a different partition table, so it won't install. Flashing ftf will restore it.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bass122:
I'm 6802, UB, no problems at all, perfect ROM~
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Galaxtus:
Can you post your flashing process.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Takisxx:
well can you add in next update double tap screen to wake up and lock?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
Double tap is kernel future, and it can prevent device from going into deepsleep, so battery will be affected very much in a bad way.

BTW. I ported advanced power menu from this mod

Just replace files and add right permissions. I'll add this in next update.

View attachment android.policy.jar

View attachment framework-res.apk
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bass122:
Hi~ Galaxtus,

Just regular step. Coming from Resurrection.

Latest Dual-recovery.

Full wipe.

flash the ROM but remember don't flash the GAPP cause it's already included.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Unknown_2517:
[MENTION=3508509]vovanx500[/MENTION]

For Stamina Mod, use xposed with PowerNap 0.7 beta module (Sony Stamina Xposed Module). Work perfectly on every roms like this and cm12, cm12.1 and RR 5.5.0 on my z ultra.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
Thank you.

I actually signed for test few days ago.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
On screen battery is amazing, now I am switching to UB, as on LB there is more consumption of battery in standby. Only fix is different kernel.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
7 hours on screen time is VERY impressive. Is this with a different kernel?

Edit: It would be interesting to know which Xposed modules you are using when you got this on screen time?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
Yes, different kernel, but I think it will work on Scrubber's kernel too.

Locked Bootloader kernel is consuming battery during sleep,

so I am switching to UB one.

No Xposed at all.

I had wifi and lte enabled all the time.

Next version will be for Unlocked Bootloaders only.

Locked version will receive otas from me, like one with advanced menu.

But most of my time will be spent on unlocked version.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] PDesire:
Your ROM seems fine, is that ROM Project Desire 2.1 compatible or must I port it for CM based ROMs? :P
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
I will Pm you.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] PDesire:
It seems fine

Okay then now I will port Project Desire 2.1 for this ROM as present to XDA and [MENTION=3508509]vovanx500[/MENTION]
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] curiouso9:
Hi, failed to reboot to recovery, already try several option.

want to manually flash twrp,failed because windows not detecting togari in fastboot.

any help?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
Flash stock Ftf with flashtool, then you can fastboot kernel.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] curiouso9:
this bug looks minor but quite taking time for us to reflash recovery by flashing stock FTF, will wipe data.

any how can you fix this, i install twrp manager while in your rom, its detecting its has already twrp latest version, however failed to boot it into recovery.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
I thought your device not booting at all :D Just sleeping 2 hours for idk how many days...working on something interesting...

So,about your problem. What's your bootloader status, and from which rom did you flash mine?

Just more info: How are you trying to install, and what happens when you try to enter recovery.

P.S If you have blue light during fastboot, then it means you migh have no drivers installed.

I will help anyway, just pm me, I will look closely, after I get some sleep :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] curiouso9:
hahaha, yah i think you got confused earlier,

nevermind, i finally fix it by finding correct driver, manually enter fastbot and flash twrp.img and boot.img from scrubber gpe.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Galaxtus:
Will wait for your UB version of the ROM. Maybe that will help. Currently your rom is based on Locked Bootloader. That might be the reason i cant run this.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] veskostoev:
I run V1.1 on unocked bootloader on C6833 with no problems why you cant.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
My guess is that he somehow damaged partition, flashing some of earlier versions of cm based roms, to fix that flashing stock ftf is required, but he refused to do it.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
New version is up :)

If you wanna upgrade from 1.1, just wipe system and both caches, can leave data if you want.

I started a poll, please take a vote!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] scarletnokarasu:
Hi, I've installed v1.2 everything runs really well. However, I'm unable to update Music app nor the album app via the playstore. I believe in 1.1 It was possible to do so
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] PDesire:
[MENTION=3508509]vovanx500[/MENTION]

Here is Project Desire for your ROM

Enjoy it!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Galaxtus:
As anyone tried this on the Indian version of Z ultra (C6802)?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
Thank you ! I added it to OP.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Blacklistest:
Yesterday i flashed this on my C6802 LB bro

To [MENTION=3508509]vovanx500[/MENTION] : any chance to use stock Conversation.apk??
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] PDesire:
It is a honor for me to help you and other Devs to raise up their Projects :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
I will try to port it, I aslo don't like hangouts :D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Blacklistest:
Hahaha.. Thanks so much.. I'll wait.. I dont know how to use hangout tbh :silly:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Galaxtus:
Did you check my PM.

Also what file system does this ROM use. Ext4?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
Yes, your partitions looking fine to me.

Ext4.

Describe me your flashing process, and tell me which recovery are you using and it's version.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Galaxtus:
I am currently running Slim Rom Stock based.

1. Reboot to TWRP 2.8.6.0 recovery.

2. Wipe everything

3. Install hybrid 1.2

4. Everything goes well & reboot.

5. It takes 10 mins for 1st boot.

6. It shows Android Upgrading in some Russian or German language.

7. Thats is nothing shows up. Just Status bar with no SIM error with wrong time & Nav bar.

8. Every 3 mins it reboots itself and again it shows Android Upgrading with just Black Screen.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
[MENTION=3046780]Galaxtus[/MENTION]I ,will try to find a solution for you.

Guys, sony are making the same thing as I do

So, I guess that I gonna use it :D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] PDesire:
Yep, but your ROM is better than Sony's "Concept" ;)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] baquerom:
can move apps (data and obb) to sd?

Hello everybody.

Great work, the rom is great! :good:

I want to know if is posile move apps (data & obb) to sd card.

natively or with an especial app .

thanks.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] curiouso9:
use link2sd or foldermount
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] NABENDU1:
i am facing the same problem on v1.1 for locked bl .

model c6802

clean flashed the rom using twrp 2.8.6.0 . Android is upgrading comes up in russian language & it proceeds till the end. only the nav keys are visible and the entire display area is black . The notification drawer pulls down & battery shows a wrong calibration of 0% and the phone reboots every time. Also theres no network indicator.

[MENTION=3508509]vovanx500[/MENTION] hope you can find a fix for the same .
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
[MENTION=4668017]NABENDU1[/MENTION]

Very interesting.

I tested on 3 devices and all were good.

Common thing, I was flashing from last stock firmware.

If I could only get the logfile, but it's impossible without debugging off.

The only thing you can try, after installation in recovery go to advanced and save log to the sd card, and send it to me.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] NABENDU1:
Sure I'll do that. Just now recovered the twrp backup I'll send you the required log by tomorrow to check
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
LINK IS UP

Check changelog and new screenshots in OP. ;)

Don't forget to wipe system. If you want, you can leave data untouched. Chrome and Hangouts can be removed like a normal apps.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] marko82marko:
Excellent ROM

With great pleasure and enjoyment I have used versions 1.1 and 1.2.

And now impatiently I downloading version 1.3!!!

This is so far the best experience on my TOGARI

:thumbup:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] PackoArenas:
works on c6806?

works on c6806?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
If scrubber port works, then it also will. If you will test, report back :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
I am guessing is not possible to add the Small Apps to this right? :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] segas1980:
Thank you,everything works flawlessly.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] chavalier:
This is the best rom for z ultra i have ever flash
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
Ignore
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Galaxtus:
As i said this ROM does not work on Indian version of C6802.

Is it related to Kernel used which support other international version. Or is it related to filesystem ext from which your phone suppose to function properly.

Only a proper developer who and see the insight of the filesystem and kernel and answer this.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
There is no difference between International and Indian.

I had 6802 from Hong Kong, and I tried Indian firmware and it worked.

The only difference is the Japanese version, it has more internal storage.

With logs and seeing device for myself, I can only guess what's happening.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] gurung_vishwas1:
Can anyone please guide me how to flash this rom ? Currently, I am in CM12.1 based CrDroid ROM with Dual recovery (CM & TWRP).

As mentioned in OP, which rom I can flash to be on stock rom (of course rooted rom) before I flash this ROM. Or is it really required as I already have TWRP recovery.

"Be on stock based Rom, last clean ftf recommended."

Thanks
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
You can try to flash it now.

In case if you ahve any problems, you can try to flash over stock.

Don't forget to make backup.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] gurung_vishwas1:
I flashed this ROM, but it does not work for me.

During flashing, TWRP recovery has given below error message:

"unmount of /system failed; no such volume"

but, finally it showed successful installation.

During booting of ROM, it tried to update the android apps, which was around 117 with below message:

3anyck Android....

and it updated all and then started the home screen, which was completely BLACK. I could see STATUS bar and pulled it down. It showed notification drawer. After that, it again re-booted, which happened multiple times.

So, end result is: It is not working for me.

Any solution ?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
I guess that your system has a different mount point .

Flashing from stock should help.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] NABENDU1:
don't think it's related to different system mount points. Mostly I am going to unlock my bootloader today and then try the scrubbers port. Since ur rom is based on scrubbers there might be something different which is causing the issue. Kindly note all the 3 guys who are reporting this issue are all on the Indian c6802 version.

And I was completely on stock rom when I flashed ur rom.

Build version 14.5.A.0.270
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
One guy mentioned that he also have same problem with original scrubber port.

As both of us is using block based installation, partition issue makes sense.

The possible fix is to implement a different installation method, so it won't be partition related.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] NABENDU1:
If possible can u build a version for the locked bl without the block based method
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] gurung_vishwas1:
Which stock ROM I can flash through TWRP, which is rooted as well? Or I need to follow the standard long process?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] srle:
Great ROM, the best ever on the ultra
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
Before that, I was developing for locked bootloader, and if I used other method , device simply wouldn't boot, not even recovery. So, I spent few nights creating image size with the same amount of blocks like gpe edition. But I am still looking for other method, as block based is time consuming.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] o0ojco0o:
Will this only work with the gpe?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] curiouso9:
Hi [MENTION=3508509]vovanx500[/MENTION] , any chance to patch RRO framework layer into this rom.

might be good since , aosp is really lacking in theming.

Paranoid AOSP did use cm12 theme engine though.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jgomez0421:
Help :)

I'm currently rooted on stock 5.0.2, C6833, and build number 270. My bootloader is locked. Dumb question but can I flash the unlocked bootloader rom instead of the locked bootloader one because it seems the Ub version is updated more or are both the same? Also, does this rom come with a sound mod to make the speakers louder? Thanks. Kinda new to Xperia flashing.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
I am not updating locked bootloader version, because battery life in standy sucks.

No fix for that.

So,just backup your drm keys, then unlock. You want lose anything.

If you have any questions, just pm me.

About mods, I did not add any, except advanced power menu.

You can flash mod, but read coments first. If people says it works on gpe, then it will work on my rom.

[MENTION=3276792]curiouso9[/MENTION] I will port Sony framework someday, so I guess themes will be from Sony.

The point of my idea is to make rom which looks like stock, but on more stable Base.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] wellison:
Sorry im new with Xperia Ultra, i have c6833 Sony version (not GPE), i already made unlock on bootloader, rooted and TWRP now im using Nimadroid ROM (.270 based too) and i want to test this ROM because great battery life and other funcitons.

My question is: to install this ROM i need flash stock .270? Or i can simply via TWRP do a factory reset formatting system/data/cache/dalvik? If i install stock .270 ftf i will loose root and TWRP??

And about performance comparison with stock how it does ?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] gurung_vishwas1:
I flashed Stock rooted rom and then flashed this rom, but facing the same issue, display is blank. This time, there was no /system error though. I had flashed below rom which was for C6833, but mine is C6802

http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z-ultra/development/rom-xperia-z-ultra-pre-rooted-firmware-t3149504

I think the blank screen error is due to my model C6802, but this was made for C6833 model, what do you think? Any solution ?

I'll give one more try to this rom after flashing C6802 stock rom.

Thanks
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
I personally tested on C6802.

Which region is yours? Indian right?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] destinygs:
Do you wipe those 4 partitions?(data,cache,system,dalvik) if you do, try to redownload the rom, maybe the rom you had download is corrupted. And you don't have to flash gapps in case you flashed that.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
There is some difference in C6802 Indian version. I don't have any idea.

So, for those who have indian version and want to help me to build it for them, I need your system partition.

You gonna need Linux for that. Here is how to
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] PackoArenas:
Works in c6806! (LB)..... just flash this rom an work fine .... will continue update this rom?(LB)? but i flash Version 1.1 ...

there is a version 1.3 LB?

taks for you work

sorry my bad English
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
I would recommend you to stick to UB version, on LB standby battery life is not good.

Maybe later, when I will implement what's I wanted I will make a version for LB.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] gurung_vishwas1:
Yes, I did that with advanced feature in TWRP.

Now I tried with C6802 stock rom as well, but same result. Always shows complete blank screen after boot. I'll download it again and flash.

I am trying with 1.3 UB, do I need to try with earlier version?

Also, there is 2 versions in download:

LockedBootloader

UnlockedBootloader

I had tried with UB as I have unlocked bootloader, do I need to try with Locked Bootloader ?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bulin23:
Mine is C6802 but show on the About Phone is C6833.

All work well.

Thanks hard work for this awsome rom.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] destinygs:
as i know the v1.3 only has the UB version only so download the UB version, if you want to try the earlier version then feel free to try them out
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] curiouso9:
Theme from sony, did u meant its actually unchangeable?

i did some study on RRO at github, its rumoring that latest gpe form Sony and HTC already have RRO framework on it.

https://github.com/deadman96385/RRO-WIKI/wiki/About-RRO

I did try install RRO manager though , but end up with system ui error after applying theme. :silly:

Did latest GPE build is available as open source?

might be good if someone experiment on it for RRO theming.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
I mean that I want to make this rom look like sony oem, and maybe I will get sony themes from market to work.

I am not gonna use AOSP themes.

Yes, sources available on sony website.

I am currently porting more apps from sony, I am working alone, so I can't do multiple things at the same time.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] gurung_vishwas1:
I am attaching here my C6802 System partition detail, which I got using "df" command through ADB. Is this enough or you need something else ?
