Today's the day of salvation :D [MENTION=6603375]RacStarr[/MENTION]6696, I honestly can't wait for the new update (v19). Hope you got the camera ready :b

Blobs are not released yet but i hope i can provide you a build today evening or night
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Haldi4803:
Don't hurry, be happy.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Kocane:
If "don't hurry" was the attitude here then everyone would be waiting for the official release :P
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] kokesh:
Keep the OT down. Both of you.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] RyTekk:
These changes seem to be for l-mr1 as I see fxp was up their new 5.1 builds for devices.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
we need to wait one day longer some problems occuerd

its a legal delay

Sorry
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Austin.gonzo:
What changes should be made so that this ROM would get out of alpha stage ?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] alia5:
"Beta, named after the second letter of the Greek alphabet, is the software development phase following alpha. [...] Beta phase generally begins when the software is feature complete but likely to contain a number of known or unknown bugs"

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle#Stages_of_development

Without camera, it wouldn't be considered feature-complete i guess ;P

just wait
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] RedBandit:
Can confirm this behaviour, however i was not able to deactivate it any more. Needed to re-flash...
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Mikey94:
test

edit: aaah, thread has been moved to android dev :P So i wasn't blind... :D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Austin.gonzo:
I think this should be updated :D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Rajeev:
Is there any particularl reason to quote the full OP my friend?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Austin.gonzo:
Yes, I mean couple of newer versions have been released, plus you have to use the new bootloader which myself can't find it nor don't know how to do it, I heard its kinda tricky.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Rajeev:
U don't need to quote the full OP for that.. U can simply tag the developer. Quoting full OP is against XDA rules..
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Rajeev:
Hi pls check ur PM
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] _superman:
Dead?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] jnne2012:
So if some rom doesnt get updates everyday its dead? Maybe you should learn something about android development and contribute to this project.

(Rant)

I hate xda community these days because everyone thinks that developers own them something if they for example donate some bucks. This is a open source community and everyone is doing this on their free time. I just saw the news about cataclysm rom and how everyone treated the dev behind it. Its same thing here on Xperia z2 forum. Everyone is telling example Alin Jerpelea (who has contributed so much to the community) what to do and what they want etc. **** that. Right now im not even sorry about my english.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
not dead but first we need to fix cam for z2 and if this is fixed new version will come we are working hard on it

thanks i can't write it better you explained it perfectly :D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] itsnie:
Agree :fingers-crossed:
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] _superman:
No one is talking here that's why I said so ,

You don't have to scream for that.

No offense :/
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] pseudoheld:
Well instead of just writing "dead?" you could have written "what's the status of this rom?" or "what are you currently working on?" sounds and is a lot more polite than just assuming something is "dead" ;)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Mohaned98:
just chill peeps ayy

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] dkionline:
New binaries out, lets hope now.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Hey i will compile with it but i can say before camera will not work and will only Boot if you delete one file

No other chance atm cam causes bootloop

Sorry for Bad news
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Bammmmm

We got the camera and it works nice

Build will be up in the next time
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Omar A. Muhammad:
Omg yes!! :D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] kokesh:
Duuude! Manual Controls? Any problems like autofocus, lightness, etc?

This is awesome news! Can't wait for first samples!!
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] raolleel:
I think there can be a few little bugs, because it's the first camera-build, but hey ... we have camera, I hope other Roms will be build, too ...

Thank you very much [MENTION=5621191]rcstar6696[/MENTION]
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] SolidR53:
Awesome! Looking forward to finally test this rom out, all I needed was a working camera in some functioning state, good or not, doesn't matter! Keep up the good work!
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Focus is broken complety
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Austin.gonzo:
Gotta admit it I didn't expect you to finally get the cam working this soon ;), I say thanks on behalf of all z2 users that haven't heard this awesome news

:good:
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] OwnageWOT:
""""""

NSTRUCTIONS,

I uploaded a flashable zip but you can only use it if you upgrade from the first version. if its your first flash use the Images

1. Flash this Boot via Fastboot (don't use boot.img from ROM) Sirius Image

2. Boot to Recovery ( Power Off device than restart it and while the LED lights Purple press Volume UP and Down some times)

3. FACTORY RESET and FORMAT SYSTEM (needed if you have LP or other custom LP Roms)

4. Download ROM

5. Flash SYSTEM.img and BOOT.img from ROM via FASTBOOT

6. reflash first Boot.IMG

7. Boot to recovery

8. flash gapps zips http://opengapps.org/

9. reflash Boot.IMG Form Rom

10. reboot

(Optional)

6.1. Flash this Boot via Fastboot again (don't use boot.img from ROM) Sirius Image

6.2. Root Direct Download

6.3. Reboot to recovery (like in STEP 2) than flash SUPER-SU.zip

6.4. Boot to fastboot and flash back BOOT.img from ROM

""""""

I dont understand any point of this instalation ?!!1

Why downloa drom is on step 4 and what to install on step 1,2,3 ?! if you dwnload rom at step 4 ?

Where is firstBoot.img ?! OMG
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Mikey94:
Is v18 with cam or is new build not up yet?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] dkionline:
Its not up

U need logcat for focus?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
I didn't expect it too somedays before :D

Question why no one has a problem with the instruction only you this is the way which makes sense to install the rom

I had to fix my source before build but now i'm bulding rom will be up today as Version 20 :D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Mikey94:
But... But... Where will be 19 then? :( :(

:D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Ok if you want it as v19 then i will use v19 :p
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] dkionline:
Then its a build without autofocus, right? Hope someone fix this asap.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Envious_Data:
My question is can you use manual focus through an app lets say ManualCamera
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] OwnageWOT:
Question why no one has a problem with the instruction only you this is the way which makes sense to install the rom

Tell my again step by step.... Seriously i dont understand what or how to install...
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Mikey94:
First you should read about fastboot. Then Just follow the steps. You need to use the first Boot image, Because Boot.img from Rom has no recovery.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] :
Is your bootloader unlocked?

You must have it unlocked if you want to use this ROM.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Kocane:
Can any users of this ROM maybe make a report on how it compares to LP? We all know the infamous "mobile radio active" bug of LP - is it fixed? I doubt the bug is anything but a stats-bug i.e. not a real drain, but still...
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Mikey94:
Will test, After v19/V20 is up. Checking xDa every 5 minutes :(

I want it so Bad :P
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] SolidR53:
I'm also checking xda every 5 minutes... And even the MEGA link for a new V19 folder lol
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] OwnageWOT:
yes is unlocked... i use more other ROM without problem to install and without brick my phone.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Austin.gonzo:
It's going to be called v20 not v19
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Mikey94:
Maybe he calls it v19, because i would miss v19 a Lot :(
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] kokesh:
[MENTION=5621191]rcstar6696[/MENTION] - What camera features are reported as supported in the Compatibility test? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.vipek.camera2_compatibility_test&hl=en
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Mikey94:
Just wait for V19/V20 and try it yourself :P

Development lives from testing and reporting bugs and things. If we only have people on the forum, which ask whats not working, developing will take very long or will not go on at all.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Sorry but we have problems atm the devices don't Boot

At the Moment we make a cleanup and some things went wrong here or are still in progress

Sorry again for these Bad news but i will give you a build when the devices will Boot again

But cam will work, backlight will be fixed, NFC too and all other things will work

And New Linux kernel Version

We give our best and will hard work during weekend on it
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Austin.gonzo:
It's Ok, no need to make excuses ! You're doing this on your free time and you owe us z2 users nothing because you know...it's free

Thanks again to put hard work in this even tho not a lot of people donate for it...
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] hesam666:
Plz add screen shots ????
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] timoti123:
Why do you need screenshots? Just google Android 6 aosp and there you have it :D What do you want more?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] hesam666:
I do not want anything special just what form the settings .?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] kokesh:
Find any Nexus phone settings screenshots. It is the same.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] sercangogercin:
You really think our only problem is camera for this wonderful rom? I got reboots while calling. And also when trying to add uccw widgets.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
For me all seems stable i had no rrboot while calling only because of cam i had one or two and i use uccw widgets too and no reboots

Try to factory reset your device and flash build again
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] sercangogercin:
I already did a clean install. I didn't understand why only me facing that issue :/ continue using a couple of days more and post the result. Thanks for the reply.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
We got all devices back to boot but i'm not at home tomorrow this means i will build tlmmorow night and build will be availabel on monday :D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] sercangogercin:
[MENTION=5621191]rcstar6696[/MENTION] do other people hear their voices while on the phone? I have also that problem. And which firmware do you use now? Maybe that is the solution??
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Yep echo is an issue which is not fixed but its only mic and sound calibration this is easy to fix

I will provide a New build tomorrow
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Mikey94:
Wuhuuuuu, cant wait for new build today <3
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Austin.gonzo:
Only few hours away from getting the taste of Android m and it's working camera ?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
I will build in about one hour then building will take some time and uploading i think it should be available tomorrow morning
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] s.hossein:
We all waiting new build with working camera. Thanks for you Mr rcstar6696. Nice job.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
New Build is uploading

Hey

New build should be up in the next hour :D

changelog will come later but all seems to work now

Please do not use the Zip file flash it via fastboot due some heavyer changes !!!
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] s.hossein:
can we flash system.img from v18 and flash zip file from v19?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Nope not possible it will not work
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] AcidFX:
Rcstar6696, thanks for new build. I found an issue on main camera, it is limited to 1.2 mp resolution. Somebody please report if it is so on your devices.

Also second issue - caller on opposite line hears himself twice (like echo effect). I hear him good and he hears me perfect.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
You can change it on camera app to 20mp :D

Yep the micro is a known issue
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] AlanDS:
Great to see the new build. Would it be possible for anybody to post some camera picture samples?

I hope this echo issue would be solved soon. Looking forward to see a stable build for Z2 before official MM release.

Thanks a lot [MENTION=5621191]rcstar6696[/MENTION] for your efforts.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] AcidFX:
Yes, tried another app from market it allows to change resolution. (stock app from gapps didnt allow me to select). :D

By the way this build made my phone charging from usb! It didnt charge via usb port on 5.x.x. Service center said that it needs to get usb port repaired. So your build has fixed it ))
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Don't use google cam the app seems broken for us

We need to update our media config i recommend stock camera app or camera zoom those are stable

Google cam will only have green pictures
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Steve_KZN:
Updated Rom

Has this rom been updated since 7th Jan?

Really interested in the release to install
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] pseudoheld:
Seriously? It's one or two posts above yours that a new build has been released...

Please just read the thread.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Austin.gonzo:
What happens if we flash it via zip ? (Just curious)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] eckR:
[MENTION=5621191]rcstar6696[/MENTION] thanks for all your effort :) I am really looking forward to install your rom :)

One question: Is the mic echo issue fixed in the new version, i am just curious because you said it would be easy to fix.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
No not fixed :D i will look into it now
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] draltus:
hi

i have a big problem

i did what you say in the fisrt page. phone is start no problem

but i power of the device for optional supersu zip.

now device not open, i cant hard reset via volume-, volume+ and power button.

when i connect my pc unknown device. fastboot cant connect my phone. i cant access fastboot mod and flashmod

what can i do. any solution for this situation
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Hold volume up and power 20 secondes then boot into fastboot again (hold volume up and plug in usb)

If Fastboot won't recorgenice your device setting up driver for fastbot again
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] draltus:
i did it. install driver again. but i cant access fastboot or flashmod.

nothing happen

chesc usb status previous message screenshot
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
This could not cause supersu and defintekly not the rom i flashed so much times with no issues

Hold power button for about one min and try again fastboot like i explained in the last answer
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] s.hossein:
guys my phone's wifi not detect my modem or any wifi network.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
All is okay here :D do you have d6502? Try reboot if its not helping do factory reset and flash all again

I have installed the build on my phone too today in the morning and all works
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] jnne2012:
Woah... I think my device just hard bricked. The new update was nice and working just fine then i decided to reboot my device and now it doesnt do anything. No lights, no vibrations or anything.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
How did you reboot ? Turn off and turn on ? I rebooted mine now 4 times in four ways and no problems

Try to hold power button for about one min and turn on again

Please don't wonder that after sony logo it takes a while to start bootanimation
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] draltus:
same problem with me. :(((

nothing happen. no boot logo, no vibration, no light, nothing and nothing.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Is anyone here who can enjoy the new build or does all have problems expect me :D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Could you explain what did you to i tested it again and again but all is okay here

Try to boot into recovery please
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] jnne2012:
I pressed power off button and then it was dead. It does not respond to fastboot or flashmode and pressing buttons do nothing :(

Someone sell me a spare phone :rolleyes:
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Try press power button 60 sec and try again to boot

The thing which i don't understand why fastboot is broken normaly this is not possible
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] jnne2012:
Nothing happens after 60sec. Yeah its really strange!
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] draltus:
power button, volume buttons and camera buttons not working. all combinations and all buttons dont any activities. fastboot and flashmod cant access, no light and no vibrations. like phone is dead

only one thing when i connect phone i see unknown device see picture.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Is your device connected to power source or pc ? If yes unplug it and try again
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] draltus:
phone is normal working previosly. but when i power of device. my phone is dead

when i connect the charger no charge

when i connect the pc unknown device.i did all usb drivers gain and again but no success
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Try this http://www.addictivetips.com/window...-or-device-drivers-manually-in-windows-vista/ with fasboot driver or adb driver

Or your fastboot driver is outdated
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] itsnie:
Try to hold vol up + power button simultaneously guys or try to hold reset button until our z2 vibrated, maybe about 30 second

Try it guys [MENTION=4592817]jnne2012[/MENTION] [MENTION=2120318]draltus[/MENTION]
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
On your device all is okay with newest build ?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] draltus:
already try this. but no success. still unknown device.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Btw what does fastboot says after writing fastboot devices
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] itsnie:
I'm not try new build for now, due to low bandwith data [emoji51]
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] draltus:
when i write "fastboot devices" nothing happen

when i write "fastboot reboot" waiting for devices
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Please try it and report back if one more faces this issue i will remove the last build

Hmm okay i'm out of ideas atm
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] draltus:
i think we are lost boot. we can not do anything for now. only one way i will send my phone service :(
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Sorry i have no idea what happens with your device i rebooted my device 10 times now and every time it boots
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Your devices are working with newest build ? If yes try to reboot and report back what happens please !!!

Please do it fast as you all can
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] itsnie:
Lost boot is impossible, if the file flashed to correct partition, i think your phone are'nt turn off complete, that's why i suggested to hold reset button until your z2 vibrated, but i'm not sure hahaha ..

I'll try to night ..
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] eckR:
No, i haven't installed it yet. Sorry.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Thats what i mean its not possible that fastboot breaks and your device is on you see it in your device mangager

Thank please report back fast as you can
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] eckR:
I would also go with that suggestion. Press the red reset button (next to the micro sim slot where the micro usb port is) until the phone vibrates. Cannot imagine that you can't even go in fastboot or flashmode.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] s.hossein:
my phone is d6503 and now wifi is fixed and several times power off and on and my phone is on now.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Thank you this was very important for me that the rom is okay andnot causes hard bricks

Then enjoy it now
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] jnne2012:
i have tried everything: pressing the red button, pressing power, pressing power+volume up. I have working fastboot drivers and everything but no luck.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] itsnie:
Oh strange dude [emoji33]

One question, you flash the rom using fastboot or the zip file ?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] jnne2012:
I made a clean install using fastboot.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] s.hossein:
I find a problem, my wifi not detect any network,when in insert sim to phone, but when no sim on phone,WiFi is work perfectly,Bluetooth too.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] zefssd:
I got the same problem as you but i think that super-su is responsible of this. I have tried to flash your rom three times but the third time i have flash the super su too. Then after power off my phone, it doesn't boot up.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
I use supersu too but no systemless root this could cause problems i haven't testwd it

For me all is okay wifi and sim
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] kokesh:
OK, so who will be the first one to post some camera samples?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
If you want i can do it after lunch :D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] s.hossein:
Same problem in this thread:
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] VinBenzin810:
rcstar the root dosent work, is that right . i have flash the zip from chainfire but got no root. how can i get now root ?

and the second question . which app i can use to take photos. cause the google camera work but not so pretty much like another apps.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
Root works i use beta 2.5.2 super su and i got root rights

The best qualty will you get with camera zoom
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] VinBenzin810:
can you send me the link from the .zip ??

Hard brick

For those who have installed v19 do not format sd in android system this will hard brick your device

The actual mount point will delete all on the device all means all

V19 is removed for now i will make a new build which fixes this

I will talk with alin how to get the bricked devices back
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rcstar6696:
To all with bricked devices did you format sd in android system ??

We are nearly 100% sure that this causes the brick ??
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] zefssd:
yes i did it before reboot the phone
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] dkionline:
But format internal sd is like a fullwipe, so i cant see the problem. Hope we get that gone with that new bootloader, till i cant get from emma.
