[Sony Xperia M2] ~Patryk:
Yes, my bootloader is unlocked.;)
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
That's why you can't see any difference.

As stated in the OP, ...
[Sony Xperia M2] Danypk:
No help?
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
I can't reproduce it, but I'll try. Seems to me it might be either a problem from the deodexed ROM, or the dialer itself.
[Sony Xperia M2] Matze6989:
My camera is not working with current stable Vision.
[Sony Xperia M2] aidy.lucas:
Have you tried the obvious ones first, clearing all data from camera apps and wiping caches in recovery. Have you flashed any other mods that may conflict?
[Sony Xperia M2] Matze6989:
I have clearing all camera apps. I have installed a 2nd app from playstore. There is working fine but the stock camera app isn't working.
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
I'm tired of explicitly say

the way to fix it is via WIPE DALVIK CACHE

(come on, shall I change the font size in the OP?! haha). Try it and tell us.
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
FYI, the call system is working fine, but those beeps you mention don't sound.

I've just tested it out with a friend of mine, and if he keeped himself in 'Call waiting' mode I could see the pick up options when I hang up... So if your correspondent keeps waiting, you'll automatically see his/her call in your screen; however, missed calls in that way don't get registered in my phone, but they're registered within my carrier's control panel.

It's the very first time I've done this, so I've no exact idea how it should have been, but what's clear is that, if the other person waits, you'll see the call right when you finish the ongoing one, and if not, they should be registered in your carrier's control panel.

I'll try with other Dialers to see if I get this to work.

Can i install this Rom on my Xperia m2 Aqua (D2403) ?

Yes you can works on all models of M2 with locked or unlocked Bootloader. Best results install on a fresh installation of ftf.

Stamina

Hi. Sorry for my English. Installed Xperia Z5 4.5 STYLE, phone 2303.

Stamina does not work. Data transmission is not disabled when the phone is locked. The WiFi is not disabled. So conceived? Or is it a bug. The battery sits a little faster. The rest is all excellent!
[Sony Xperia M2] Dzepar:
You need to wait 2-3 days to see Stamina work ;)
[Sony Xperia M2] xperia_m2_2303:
I do not quite understand You. In 3-5 days it will start working, or after 3-5 days I notice that it works?

What about wifi and data? As it should be?

[Sony Xperia M2] TheEvil332:
[MENTION=5854261]drastick[/MENTION] Download 18.6.A.0.182 firmware,beware choose that you own model /M2 Original or M2 AQUA/ and flash with Flashtool[use older version,because you will receive a error]

I recommend to stay with [MENTION=4787101]linuxct[/MENTION] rom, because is more flyid,user friendly,and non-bloatware

Hello,

I'd like to try this rom and i would like to know if I really need to flash before the xperia firmware 18.6.A.0.182 ?

I'm using currently the 18.6.A.0.175, can I flash directly the z5rom ? My bootloader is open.

I'm sorry if the question is stupid, I'm totally ready to do few steps more, it's just that I'm curious.
[Sony Xperia M2] Vazzeking:
I think you should upgrade to .182 firmware and after flash directly
[Sony Xperia M2] Niklaus89:
I actually wanted to try without flashing the .182, I just made a backup before and it did work.

I'm on the z5rom and everything seems to work fine.

Thank you anyway.
[Sony Xperia M2] vijaykmr:
Hi [MENTION=4787101]linuxct[/MENTION], I just installed your ROM and I really like it. But I have some questions.

1. My phone is D2302, and I'm only using 1 SIM. So, how do I remove the empty signal box?

2. VPN key in status bar. I saw someone asked this question before, but no, I didn't uninstall any VPN without deactivating it. In fact, I never installed any VPN. Its a clean installation of firmware.

Thanks.

Strange bug

Z5 S.T.Y.L.E. version: 4.5

Model: d2302

Did you flashed a clean FTF and reinstall the ROM to see if the bugs still happens?: nope

Lollipop FTF you flashed (CDA if possible): .182

Recovery you used: twrp 2.8 locked bootloader MultiRecovery

Steps to reproduce the problem:

Hi, I recently installed this rom and find it consuming too much ram and storage as well, so, I tried to revert some settings in build.prop/ data/properties, especially, to enable the low-ram flag and set dex2oat flag from "everything" to "space".

I found that enabling the low-ram would make the screen become irresponsive (freezes at the sim unlock screen) next reboot and then it would automagically become working again after the second reboot. Because I did the switches together, I don't know which switch have caused the problem.

Hei folks!

I've been using this rom for a while and honestly quite enjoyed it, but after encountering numerous annoying bugs I'd eventually decided to come back to the stock experience. Being a complete noob in all this geeky business I wonder if these instructions here are legit so after following them I wouldn't find my phone completely screwed :D

[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
Well... Here we go again.

It's snapchat's fault. Some versions ago, this didn't happened.

I'm sad I didn't have time to find a way to find a way to fix it. Yet.

About the VPN, maybe an app you installed is using it, or maybe it's related to your network's carrier config.

This issue can't be solved I'm afraid. However maybe this can be useful if you need to change from different network types inside the very same carrier.

Here's working perfectly fine, and I use it on a daily basis. If you've 4G/LTE enabled under Settings, More, Mobile Networks, Preferred network type, then it can be your carrier's/service provider fault.

Provide more info... Was the download faulty?

This issue has nothing to do with build properties, but with bootloader unlock status and screen firmware type (0x0800, 0x0600, etc.). It cannot be solved without using a custom kernel, BTW.

No, but I included 10.0.A.0.24 in an upcoming OTA.

Please, try with the new PS4 Remote Play app included in upcoming OTA.

As commented earlier, uninstall PC Companion from your PC, and ensure you've proper MTP drivers installed.
[Sony Xperia M2] DiMs93:

Yep. Now it's version v78, but I'm quite sure it will work fine.

Remember: We are using API 22 and our device is ARM, so you should pick Xposed-vXX-sdk22-arm.zip, from

HERE

. The apk is always the same (XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk..)

I'd say it's a Lite edition (check screenshots, almost no Sony/Google bloatware)

I can't fix that :p

On to a different matter, a new update will be pushed really soon to Xperia Z5 STYLE, for both Beta and Stable releases channel. It'll be tagged as

Maintenance Update 1.

It's main changes are:

Beta release channel it's going to be considered 4.5b-*** from now on, instead of the old 4.5b3, which is now a non-sense.

NotoColorEmoji font has been updated to use Android 6.0.1 emojis. You'll need an external keyboard to use the new emojis, such as Fleksy.

Settings has been slightly redesigned, following Xperia X series look and feel.

The gap between the network indicator and the battery icon has been reduced considerably.

A better PS4 Remote Play port has been included. I've no idea if it works , so if anyone owns a PS4, please test it and report.

SEMCcolorExtraction was faulty, making multimedia LED to stop working in Album and Video app. Now that's fixed.

Xperia Home has been updated to 10.0.A.0.24, featuring Double Tap to sleep in the launcher.

Hosts updated

As always, you'll get an OTA notification when it's ready to download. Enjoy, and have a nice day!
[Sony Xperia M2] maxray:
Are you going to change the base for the new update? :)
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
If you're talking about the Maintenance Updates, no, as the name implies, it's just a small OTA (fixes, fixes, fixes...!).

However, for Z5 STYLE 5.0, I want to change the base. But I don't personally feel in the mood / don't have enough time for doing this, yet ...

I have updated to 4.5 mu 1 then i surprised Arabic language in keyboard and apps isn't apeer as normal just like rectangular what should I do?
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
That's from Clash Royale... It's not even related to the ROM.

Yet Another AutoBrightness is a good app. Integrating it, or making a fix in the system, would make me waste a lot of time I don't have, plus, the features like Night Mode will be lost. I don't think it's worth it, do you?

I'm deeply sorry for the inconvenience. Please, download the fallback_fonts and fonts XML from attachments, and replace them in /system/etc OR flash the non-latin_fonts_fix.zip via TWRP. This should fix it.

There's a reason why this happens and it's that I placed NotoColorEmoji as the very first font in those XML, to avoid some emojis, like the finger pointing to the top , appearing in black and white (probably because one of those arabic, hebrew or who knows which one, contains those emojis already in B/W).

Once again, sorry for the inconveniece, please report back if there is any other issue related.

Update: Seems like the problem was actually in the filenames of the fonts, differing in things like NotoNaskhArabic-Regular.ttf instead of NotoNaskh-Regular.ttf, causing you to see an square. The only reason for this is the FTF variant you had previously installed.

So, to solve the issue, I've attached new XMLs and a different flashable Zip for it. :)

[Sony Xperia M2] Hey.Jay:
It's not from Clash Royale, but from Xmod. My album was not like that before the update, no random pictures of icons or what. But after, turns like that. It doesn't matter anymore. It was fixed now.
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
Only "big bugs" are the ones described in the OP: Some camera apps are faulty, that's it.

Randomly, and in an impossible way to control from my side, the Camera app starts to crash, being only usable from the lockscreen, but, it's easily fixed by wiping the dalvik cache and/or clearing the Camera app data inside Settings, Apps, All apps, Camera, Clear data.

There're also minor issues, 2 exactly, you can't switch between calls if someone is calling you while you were speaking with other person, and, the network carrier lookup just ends up with an error...

But this shouldn't affect the daily usage of the device (mainly the second issue).

You guys are really going to make me switch my phone language to Arab to test this out...

I'm just sick tired of repeating this, my fingers hurt of repeating it again and again.
