Thanks for keeping our Z1s alive! On your recommendation I bought a new battery, original Sony. It wasn't that difficult to change with the right tools. As a test I looped a 1080p video in MX Player, with old battery it died at 30 % after 2,5 hours. With new battery it lasted 5,5 hours. Like new again. :)

Since you're probably peeing off OP right now, I'll give you a hint to read a few -nay- ONE! posts back and then use your brain to add 1+1 ;)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Fivavoa:
Thanks for the great work again! Everything is running 100% smoothly. :)

Anyway, a few questions:

Would you ever consider adding the Battery Bar into Jaguar?

and

Is it possible to use Jaguar without SU?

Thanks again.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
You can use the rom without SU, but I would recommend a clean install without su, because it probably did a lot of "cleaning" during install. So, what you can do is unzip October Jaguar zip and do the following:

1. Delete supersu folder

2. Go to /Meta-Inf/com/google/android, open updater-script with note++ (don't use Windows regular text editor) and delete 3 lines closer to the end after 'show progress (0,050000, 5). Save the file, rezip and flash the rom again. .

I broke my lcd screen and got 2 bad replacements. I am going to give it one more try, and if that doesn't work, then bye bye Xperia Z1 and bye bye Sony...

I have finally got a good replacement screen. It came with the frame and new metal bezel, which I had a lot of fun transferring magnet charger receptacle, all metal parts and flex cables. As a result, I have a brand new phone without scratches or blemishes.

Since I took apart everything to the last screw, I put more aluminium foil on top and bottom of CPU/GPU. Here are 2 pictures: front and back with foil on.

Hello

I have flashed this rom but facing screen flickering type issue. Some colours are changing. Is this issue solved? & i was not able to flash the no over clock zip file via Twrp.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] babyboy3265:
Unfortunately that is not helpful in my case. I did what you said but the device reboots somewhere around the middle of Optimizing my apps. Installed the NON OC kernel but the result is the same. It cannot bypass the app optimization process..

Edit:

Since i had made a back up, i decided to wipe everything and then flash clean to see if it would work, i flashed it with OC kernel and everything was fine.

So basically it is either some setting that i have or some app that is misbehaving when optimized. (deleted kernel tuner)

Below are the apps i use, could you tell which one of them is causing the issue?

Edit 2:

I turned off Developer tools, then reinstalled the ROM dirty. It booted past the optimization, however after 10, 20 seconds in and the Z1 rebooted from what seemed like hight heat. However then i flashed the NON OC and the same happened... Additionally the Play Services were crashing so no play store and such...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
Get rid of Pimp my Z1. I also had numerous reboot problems when I tried it...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
1. You have after-market display. There is nothing that can be done. Don't lower the brightness all the way to prevent flickering.

2. Kernel is not for flashing via TWRP, but for fastboot...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] decayed.cell:
This gives me a lot of Google Play Services crashing warnings. Also, on a dirty flash I get RH-01 error in Google Play, even after clearing cache for the related apps. I have tried OpenGapps Nano and that works fine for me

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] caki25:
I changed mine a week ago or so. Same thing. Strange is that it doesn't happen on stock, just on aosp/cm based Roms. What i did on cm was lowering the display rgb values, especially green. You need to find a combination that will somewhat keep the computer accurate...

In cm is under display settings, live display color calibration. Not sure about Jaguar. I think that you can do this in kernel adiutor as well... Native in ROM worked better for me though...

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] caki25:
It's a bit dark, but all in all OK, no flickering out colored artifacts. I also use a dark theme so it might contribute to it.

I'm dying to test new build but wondering if recents has fab for clear all
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
Yes, it does on the right top side of the screen. You have to disable slim recents for that. Or if you get Gravitybox, you can have it anywhere plus the ram memory shown too...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Luna447:
I did test the v18 Update since rls.

Well.. The ghost touch thing is still there. Very annoying when watching videos.

The layers manager isn't working with the latest GravityBox from Xposed.

But the biggest problem is the network. I have almost no connection all day and can't get any sms or whatever. Had no problems before.

The battery is much better now in comparison to the CM rom.

But really, the ghost touches and the network thing is killing the experience for me.

Oh and I was be able to fix this bluetooth pairing problem as already mentioned but it would be really nice if you could fix it in the next update.

Otherwise it's a great ROM!
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
I have had no screen problems for 10 days, but I have a tempered glass with oliophobic coating. Gravitybox: I don't know what it has to do with layers. Did it work in the prior release? Network: there were no changes to telephony except for updated apn list from CM. If you have problems, set network to LTE/GSM/WCDMA and create your carrier's apn manually. There are hundreds of carriers out there and some change their settings. So, the only way is to update your specific apn manually.

The next release will have bluetooth fix integrated, as well as Wakelock blocker...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
Here is what's coming in the next release: see attached
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] danny19901:
Awesome can't wait
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Luna447:
Not sure what this is but I guess I don't have it. Is there another workaround? Or can anyone else confirm that the problem is still there?

Since GravityBox is changing so much things in the Ui I'm not wondering why it's not working with layers. But that's not that important. And no, it didn't work with previous versions of this rom.

Alright. Good to know. I'll try some different things.

Great!

Hi,

Currently I'm still on stock ROM but the last year I'm really suffering from the "Out of memory" issues (like launcher crashes, icons reloading.. I only have 200MB free RAM after a while but after a fresh reboot it's 800MB, ..).

I can't seem to find specific info regarding this issue in the thread here so I'm asking it :)

How is RAM management with a custom ROM and with this one specificly?

Does anyone experience RAM issues or are they completely gone once you get away from stock?

Thanks!
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] babyboy3265:
See that's the thing, yesterday i tried pretty much everything. I flashed the ROM a few times. I removed Pimp my Z1 and Kernel Tuner but the issue persisted.. Mad overheating and rebooting with both kernels... Additionally, for some reason i could not restore by backup at some point. The device kept on rebooting after like 15 20% of restoring. The only thing that helped me restore was a clean wipe and then restore... Something really weird going on :(

I really want the new update but i dont wanna start fresh :( aaaaahhh
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
Try this kernel. And don't flash back and force, because that's causing overheating. Flash the rom and let it sit for a few minutes, then reboot.

And by the way, everyone should upgrade to this kernel. Don't flash it in TWRP. Unzip and fastboot...

I'm experiencing this reboot lately as well, but i think it got nothing to do with this rom. How old is your battery? I can say that my reboot is related to a dying/busted battery coz I've already tried flashing different roms (Stock like/AOSP/CM/AICP), problem is till there. Back of my phone shows a noticeable swelling of the battery. All started after i abuse the phone playing high demanding Games for a long period of time that i can confirm that made the phone hot more than the usual.

Help

sir im already using your rom, then i want to use stock rom again

before flashing what should i do?

im already read your warning "WARNING: you need to do one thing after flashing the rom: flash the latest stock baseband. BASEBAND ONLY. If you don't, you will only have LTE: no H+/H/2G. This is a one-time procedure and is due to Volte implementation. You can either use FlashTool to flash stock baseband or a Partition Backup App (from Googleplay or elsewhere) to backup and restore your modems. With FlashTool, first flash the rom, then reboot, then flash the latest baseband. With Partition Backup, first, backup your modems, then flash the rom, then restore modems and reboot. You have been warned. I don't want to hear cries: where is my 3G! "

but i dont know how to flash baseband and backup modems. please help me
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Jbazt_katuforzs:
If your bootloader is unlocked, i think you cant use the oem stocked rom again because its using a stocked kernel. But u can flash many lollipop customs roms using a custom kernels for 5.1. Using your current recovery, flash a custom lollipop rom for unlocked bootloader based on stock, then flash the custom kernel for lollipop via fastboot. I think it will not boot without changing the kernel. Correct me if im wrong
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
Actually not. Even if his bootloader is unlocked, he can still use stock roms. [MENTION=902160]Jbazt_katuforzs[/MENTION] If you have TA backup of your phone, you can relock your bootloader after flashing stock rom to have stock camera quality. Just don't relock while on custom kernel or you will be soft bricked.

Regarding Jaguar: if you flashed the latest version and you have 2g/3g signal, you don't need to do anything else. If you don't, then you should flash baseband from any stock rom for your device (c6903 or c6902).
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Jbazt_katuforzs:
Thanks for the infos. Yes i knew its possible if we can relock the bootloader using the TA backup. Easy way tho is to download a custom based on stock and custom kernel for 5.1. I flashed FeatureMX rom and Kryptonian kernel. All came back to stock like with bit of tweak. Easy way for me

But I've tried almost all and i can say this is the only rom i noticed my ghost touch almost gone, and the speed and stability of this rom compare to others is way damn sick
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] gauravbhakuni90:
Yes it locks the bootloader that way but no way you are gonna get that ta partition if you don't restore it. So say bye bye to stock camera quality.

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Snp Mania2:
on this build the rom can not install with gapps, also exposed framework got bootloop,

for gapps problem is a boot runtime dalvik art cache has not finished, the phone dead n booting again.. did i am wrong step ?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
Xposed no longer works starting from October release. "Rom can not install with gapps" doesn't make any sense. Your Gapps are in system and when you install Jaguar, your system gets overridden. So, there is no Gapps after installation, unless you flash them separately. Your problem is caused by switching to Jaguar from another rom without fresh install, meaning, you have to wipe /data/cache/art-dalvik. If you have data from another rom, you are in a sea of trouble...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] kons23:
I am a little irritated because I want to go to the latest stable version of this rom but as I can read it is from 9. Februar 2016 or from 2.September 2016 but from no one of both I can found a download link.

That's because you don't read. Help yourself and read the OP. You will find all the info there that will save you from trouble.

Hint 2: the thread also has a download section where you have all releases

P.S. And by the way, if you don't like the rom, you can always ask for your money back...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Ridsever:
You need only change ntp server for your country/region becouse this gps.conf file is for Poland.

Both files you need copy to /system/etc and make sure they have correct permisions (-rw-r--r--)

It needs a while to first lock on, but after that it locks with a speed of light ;).

And now my gps works on "Device only" setting :cool:

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] LinkRaf:
hahahaaha thats was original. Loved it! thanks for google for me!

EDIT : Could understand the fix. Thank you. But about kexec hardboot patch, i couldnt find anything about this rom kernel.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
Kexec was removed about a year ago, as it created a huge security hole in Android...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] drakonizer:
Plus newer versions of multirom work without kexec, so it's not needed anymore.

At least the versions with the no-kexec patch
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
You still need to modify the original kernel. And here is what the developer says: " This whole thing is basically one giant hack - none of these systems are made with multibooting in mind." http://xdaforums.com/oneplus-3/development/multirom-v33b-op3-t3415654
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] drakonizer:
Uhh no. The no-kexec patch needs absolutely no modification to the kernel, both primary and secondary. It replaces the boot.img with the appropriate one before boot, and restores the primary one during boot. The only issue with that is the constant r/w to the boot partition.

By the way, the no kexec patch is not included in official multirom builds, just the ones for Xperias and a few HTC devices.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
If that's true, then the changes are made in TWRP kernel, but you still need to modify kernel.

So, the system is hijacked at TWRP level. It is even a bigger hack of a system that was never designed for multi-boot...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] drakonizer:
Not true either. TWRP injects the multirom binary into the boot image, and this binary loads the appropriate kernel during boot and restores the primary kernel afterwards.

Either way, the kernel remains intact. In fact no modifications to the kernel is needed to build multirom or multirom recovery.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
Is that not modifying? :)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] drakonizer:
Not the kernel as you said
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
Injecting binary into boot image is modifying and if I don't want any packing/unpacking, I can do modification in sources and compile myself. And multiboot does not work if your data partition is encrypted. I am not mentioning other issues...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] drakonizer:
Boot image =/= kernel. I assumed you'd know that.

Modifying the boot image will, in no way, affect the security features of the kernel.

And yes, multirom doesn't work if your data partition is encrypted. But other than that, there are no major issues.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
I never said modifying boot image would affect security, but multiboot REQUIRES kernel modification one way or another. And it is multiboot (on Android), not the kernel, that affects security...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] drakonizer:
But multirom DOESN'T modify the KERNEL. It modifies the BOOT IMAGE by injecting the multirom binary. It works with ANY kernel, and ANY ROM, even the ones that aren't meant to be multi-booted (like yours).

Other than, encryption (which, in my opinion, is for people who are paranoid, and are willing to sacrifice performance for their paranoia), what other security issue arises from using multirom?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] mati865:
ROM from 10 Nov restarts during apps optimization (tested both latest and no-oc kernel).

Rolling back to 5 October release fixes issue.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] drakonizer:
Make sure you have adequate charge and have wiped data/factory reset after flashing.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
Bad battery that causes overheating. That's why your phone restarts. After flashing the rom and supersu, turn the phone off for a few minutes, then reboot...

If the secondary rom sits on SD card, there are tons of issues. And generally, any hijacking (which includes recoveries) is compromising your device. I, for example, no longer use usb port for anything. I use magnetic charger instead and if I want to move something from the phone, I put it on SD card and then transfer the same on computer. I don't need it. So, next time I need to open my phone, I will cut the pins and epoxy motherboard. This way there is no access to ADB/Fastboot. I have also removed TWRP - no need for it unless I need to upgrade, in which case I can install it from internal terminal or use an app. And even if I accidentally loose the phone, it will be of no use to anyone: they can't flash or fastboot...
