False positive from lookout (haven't used that app in years by the way...no need for it as long as you get your apps from reputable places and posters)...

The apk are signed with different key to allow to be installed...no big deal as long as you know who's the source that signed them and since they're packaged in this rom you shouldn't worry about it unless you had downloaded them from some shady sites...

I removed them from the rom prior to flashing it as I have no use for them, so they were just extra bloat on my side
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] dominicstg2:
do you get freezing every so often? and have you lost your recovery? its happened to me i reflashed recovery and after 1 day it would disappear again :( and i has these 3 apps amplify, greenify and powernap. i couldnt get 5hrs on stock when i first got my phone and on first recharge i got 6hrs sot and 1.5 days standby

Please, you can give us your settings LSpeed? Because on my z5, my battery never exceeds 4h30 Screen On... :crying:

And another question, use you an battery saver app like greenify, naptime...?
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] VSMiguel:
Actually I dont have any problem.

If somebody still do not have access to the recovery, BE SURE you flashed the recovery IN THE RECOVERY PARTITION, NOT IN THE BOOT PARTITION!! I did that and I didnt see that YOU MUST FLASH EVERYTHING IN THE RIGHT PARTITION!

If you still having issues, do a FULL wipe that helped me in 4.0 with the rotation bug =^)

Otherwise, I think Greenify is helping me a lot I began today to test it, and Juicedefnder does not help very much in MM (at least for me at the moment).Anyway, 4.2.1 is stable, fast, smooth and swagger she hat everything.

Testing and working with my friend Z5 E6653.

I want to use stock launcher? How to go back?
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] Tilman:
First of all I don't use any battery saving apps like you've mentioned.. Only L Speed.

I use the recommended settings from L Speed app & then set the Kernel Tweaks to Heavy(just cause I want my device more responsive), kernel sleepers optimization turned on, flag tuner on, disable debugging & kernel panic, battery improvement, improve scrolling & misc tweaks.

From net tweaks I set the Net Buffers to Default & faster streaming & fast dormancy turned on.

In IO tweaks, just SD Tweaks set to moderate.

Cache Reclaiming Moderate & no Zram optimization. Ram manager to balance. Seeder to enlarger & Cleaner & Fstrim set on boot.

As you said you have Z5 which just packs 2900 mah against the Z5P's 3430 mah so you might notice some difference.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] -DM-:
Yes it should work, but backup first and then push manually with the right permissions and reboot to see...

Or you can decompile your systemUI.apk and remove those lines

<LinearLayout android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginTop="70.0dip" android:layout_weight="1.0"> <in.panic.xperience.aokpram android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="30.0dip" /> </LinearLayout>

How do you enter recovery-mode??

Flash "androPlus permissive v31" kernel if you want to enter recovery from root apps like "Quick Boot".

Also the RecoveryPartition is built-in in the kernel on those sony CellPhones, unlike other androids.

In fastboot you flash recovery image and kernel-image, you could also download "flashify" from PlayStore and flash within the apps, if you have root and busybox. It worked for me. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgollner.flashify

Don't go to stuck. I think it is only in the beginng it happening, I have debloated powerfully RomAuras 4.2.1 with a script in recovery-mode.

Quickly during boot, if you press

Volume up

button SEVERAL times, NOT

holding

down the button, you get into recovery-mode

[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] KbaB.BroS:
First of all you need to read the XDA rules, quoting OP is against the rules.

Secondly, the Z5p dsds version is the dual version in the AROMA installer so go with that kernel. Flash the recovery given by the instructions in OP.

When I install the rom, which options should I enable / disable to get the best battery performance? I need intsall the launcher or interface things, I mean f.e. enable or disable fast dormance (I have always my odafone SIM) and other options.

did you wipe "fota"-partition when flashing with flashtool? you should. Try to flash the kernel "androplus 32 permissive http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z5/development/kernel-andropluskernel-v1-t3246100

And tell me later if it worked? what recovery do you use? TWRP 3.0.2?

Sony phones are 30MB Kernel but actually it is 15MB, the other is recovery, So I think it depends on the kernel whether it allows you to get into the recovery-mode since stock version don't allow you enter recovery-mode. This stock-recovery-mode is for fota, ota, firmware-on-the-air-update. This is a kernel-hack. Do you feel me, Houston? ;)

RomAur 4.2.1 works after flashing debloat script! Edit your personal use.

Try my personally modified de-bloat script for marshmallow .224 firmware, run this from recovery-mode. Credit goes to [MENTION=4887764]frixed [/MENTION]

This script will remove a lot of unnecessary system apps that both spy on you and taking juice... it was safe for me to use it. Do just before only a system-backup with twrp in recovery-mode. Check only system and not the whole system-image while you backup.

Hope this will help. Also I use coolify to check the temperature and see when the phone is heavy cpu-processing. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.onexuan.coolify.flat

Read this thread!

http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z5/general/guide-sony-xperia-z5-unlock-root-tweaks-t3298224

Unlock boot-loader, get the unlock code from sony

advanced variant is to downgrade firmware to the oldest firmare version availiable for your device from the net, also use flashtool.exe to flash your phone.

Use a malicious security bug attack to get root privileges without unlocking to backup TA-partition unless you don't care for the warranty

Easy dummy way:

first unlock boot-loader!

flash recovery image (program) that runs in a recovery mode, TWRP is the program.

Then flash RomAur 4.2.1 by this to date...

Come back later when you done that!

Thank you for all the hardwork auras76, Ive been using the rom for days now with no major issues. I updated to stock .224 then wiped and flashed this clean. Ive found a few bugs on my phone, not sure if anyone has anyone has any remedies:

1 - screen freeze: Only happened to me twice so far, while writing a whatsapp message the screen would freeze and i would have to reboot the phone via the reset button.

2 - System Ui battery drain: My system ui seems to be draining battery and stopping the phone from going to deep sleep. I unplugged my phone from charge at 7am, only used the phone minimal to now (1 hour SOT) and i currently have only 59% battery left. Systemui has used up the highest at 19%.

3 - my notifications dont seem to come through for text messages. It literally vibrates n makes a sound for a second n then stops. End up missing loads messages cos dont hear it ring. Ive tried changing the ring tone but that dont help. If the screens on its fine, it sounds normal. Just when the screens off.

Any one have suggestions on the systemui or notification? Il be keeping an eye on whats the screen freezing and report back

If you flash recovery in boot partition, then you install the rom YOU WILL LOSE THE TWRP.

Explain but your process the way you do step by step

[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] SCA1998:
Please fastboot a stand-alone TWRP recovery img instead of a kernel img that has TWRP injected.

Link for the img is few posts ahead, I suggest you go searching for it.

As what others have said, please do not fastboot the img into boot partition, you should type in something like this:

fastboot flash recovery [file.img]

By doing this, flashing any kernel img will not overwrite the recovery as they are completely independent. You may flash AurKernel afterwards and then install RomAur if you like.

take note though that under certain circumstances (unknown) it might be more unstable than the previous ramdisk drmfix approach,

e.g. for the Z4/Z3+ several users reported lockups or the red led flashing - but for others it worked fine as before with even better battery runtime,

might be due to modified ROMs or other factors (e.g. XPosed)
