I've been using phone since turning UStamina off and all working fine.

Wonsky21 is also testing V3.4 for me and so far having no problems. I think the issues don't affect the Z3.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] _LLJY:
Does settings get reset?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
I didnt have anything reset but I'm not sure there was anything to reset for me. I don't use those apps
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
I can confirm some of these issues, however no big deal. I'll get some specifics later, as my little nephew try to write with me now.

Edit:

I can confirm:

- some settings icons have different sizes in USM

- aeroplane mode after disabling USM (thougt it is caused by Android N-ify xposed module)

- some doze settings are reseted (2 apps in my case)

- some apps have denied notification access

Can't confirm:

- reseting lockscreen wallpaper

- weird border around shutdown menu

Now, all these issues can be fixed with a few clicks, nothing major. Stamina mode works fine for me, and Ultra Stamina mode also no issues (I've been in that mode about 30 minutes).
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Okay on the basis that we are all power users and Ultra Stamina completely defeats the point of having a rooted device Ie. It's barely useable.

I'll release the update when I can (busy busy). I assume most people won't use Ultra Stamina (I have never ever used it) and everything else is all okay.

Then for the people who do need U Stamina I'll have to make a patch of sorts to revert Settings and Stamina back to the previous working version so that Ultra Stamina will work fine. Essentially just for the people that value use of ultra stamina over having XZ Settings and XZ stamina mode (it's not that far off the X versions TBH).
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] _LLJY:
I think the different sizes of icons are intentional
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Bäcker:
Rom without US is fine for me. keep up the great work.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
It's not without USM. USM works fine, only the small issues
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
V3.4 OTA link is up
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Lord Takyon:
Running just fine, like the changes. I don't use usm so not worried about the minor issues.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Horgar:
3.4 working great. Boots, no disasters, been up and running for 30 mins

I'm operating with no access to a computer at the moment as I have windows 10 and I can't get anything to work so a stable trustworthy rom is vital, and yours is. Top notch.

One request. Is it possible to get 30 mins screen off?

Cheers Dobsgw, great rom

Messaging fc any ideas? Tried wiping data and rebooting
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Bäcker:
Messaging working normal on my end. Seems not to be a general ROM issue.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
I can have a look into 30 mins. Can't be too difficult.

Thank you I'm glad to make a ROM people can use.

Not sure about messaging. No FC here.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Matija Gubec:
I flash today v3.4 over 3.3.1! In 3.3.1 in use Xposed with some modules.

At the moment everything work without any problem (Xposed and modules are active)!

THX for this great rom!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
How's the battery life
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
It's good :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
Can I dirty flash over existenz
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
No harm trying.

If you get issues though then you need to do a clean install

[MENTION=7144653]Dobsgw[/MENTION] Would it maybe be possible to create a flashable zip for a static nav bar with a height of 42? I feel like 36 is just a little too tiny, while 48 feels a little too tall.

Thanks in advance!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Bäcker:
xposed + Gravity box works nicely to adjust the status bar hight to your liking
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Shouldn't be a problem when I get some time
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Me Gusta:
Thanks! Take your time. Personal life goes first! :good:
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Posted in downloads section you can give it a try :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Hey bro I might have misunderstood what you mean by 30 mins screen off? What exactly is that?

There is a 30 min option for sleep in display settings by default
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Horgar:
It is in display, sleep. Max option I have is 10 mins.

Just thought though that may be linked to stamina mode. I'll try turning stamina mode off and see if a 30 min option appears.

Thanks for looking
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Matija Gubec:
Here some screenshots from today ...
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
What's the screen on time
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Mine shows 30 as an option without stamina. Weird...

Anyone wondering where charging optimisation settings are: XZ settings doesn't have it and I only just realised.

Have added it back in and will be in V3.5 OTA
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Me Gusta:
Thanks a lot! It's perfect.

Nearly.. in the updater script it still says this is the 48dp add-on, no 42. So no biggie, but I'm just pointing it out :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Horgar:
Just back after full wipe to get 3.4 working without apps fc. All fine now on 3.4 and 30 mins is there in display, sleep. All's well with the world.

Thanks again for responding
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Ahaha sorry that's because I used the 48 dpi one and made it 42... Forgot about the updater script my bad. I'll fix that for the others :P
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] MrBarkan:
Updated a couple of days ago, everything working perfectly. I'm getting 4 hours of screen time with smartband + life logging activated. Would probably get over 5-6 if disabled. System is very smooth and fast as well.

Quick question: Any news on Sony about more updates?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Matija Gubec:
Sorry i forgot it ...

Here some pics...
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Not sure about Sony's plan. I expect this is it for us unless they offer one more random update.

They will likely shift attention to devices that can support Nougat although they might give the AOSP developers a nudge to get N AOSP working properly.

But that is very wishful thinking and i think Sony just wants us to buy their new phones :(
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Me Gusta:
Lol, I'm sure as hell not going to buy another Sony. I was expecting a lot of developer support from Sony's side, and thus a lot of AOSP ROMs, but there are 0
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Not been overall thrilled with the Sony experience either.

Going for Nexus next time. Google knows best.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Me Gusta:
I'll see you on the other side then ;)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
Looks like we all agree about ****ness of Sony's support. If they don't support us, why won't we stop support them?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Bäcker:
I agree, also the new phones are not that convincing spec wise. Next will be Google or maybe Oneplus.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
Unfortunately Pixel won't be available for my country, so I guess I'll go with Samsung. S7 or s8 maybe, if it won't blow up of course :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Ahaha yeah that's probably a deal breaker :p

Hi [MENTION=7144653]Dobsgw[/MENTION]

Find attached my battery stats.I'll maybe leave it for few days and see if it improves.But at 100%, it's only showing around 17 18 hours left and 7+ hours for 50%. Do you think something else might needed to be changed at my side?

The Rom's very smooth otherwise.

Thanks
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] whalesplaho:
But compared to other brands, how many brands offers updates to devices made 2014? Even One Plus X is just receiving MM which is a new mobile and Xperia Z2 and Z3 already has.... Even M4 gat update after Z2 and Z3.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
It will be okay in a couple days if not in just 1 day. It happens every time I do clean installs or full ROM flashes. Battery is usage dependent.

Don't worry about miscellaneous. It is a developer feature as the device tries to calculate how much battery should have been used, but then shows how much was used in real life. In reality more will be used than the device calculated because it does not take into account environmental and usage factors like temperatures, lighting, random spurts of gaming etc etc.

If it doesn't improve you can do a clean install / factory reset because the people I see with best battery have done that.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Me Gusta:
Thing is, although Nexus phones might not het direct updates from Google anymore after a few years, the developer community will create a rom based on the latest OS version. This is because of how open source and easy these devices are.

Although Sony claims to have a good open source base for AOSP ROMs, nothing seems to be less true. Sony uses a universal kernel for their AOSP roms, which means 1 kernel for multiple devices. This means these kernels are way complexes than other kernels, which makes it harder to use them for developers. Also there's the HAL problem, which gives our phones the Fisheye bug. This is a kernel problem iirc. And like i said before, the kernel is a pain in the ass to fix. So that's why there's no AOSP roms for outdated Sony's, while there is for the Nexus phones.

Disclaimer: I'm 99% certain about what I just wrote. Not 100%. So please don't quote this anywhere, but it should give you an idea about what's going on around Sony and developers.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] whalesplaho:
Sure nothing like a Nexus phone & Sony camera is incomparable...... I understand all yhu said but maybe some developers can fix tha kernel issues... den we have developers who fix lots of issues on Xperia but most users re rolling to Nexus like phones!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
I would say yes that's pretty accurate. Sony is too protective of their softwares like camera and so AOSP from them is always half arsed :(
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] whalesplaho:
you cant be too careful when yhu are good at what yhu do... we even see dat in developers here been strict about their works cos some developers will take yur work & take all tha glory... but which Sony can be less protective so as to use Nougat 7.0 cos our only option is AOSP!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Me Gusta:
Yup, there are even developers that left the forums, because they didn't want to share the source code of their work.

I'm afraid we'll never see 7.0. It's a bummer, but it is what it is.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] golden7:
Watchout, S7 is delicate if you root and try customided stock ROM. Bought it and rooted, installed Superman ROM, then lost IMEI and Baseband. Be sure to back up EFS partition. It's more difficult to work with, because of KNOX, encryption, Google-lock. PITA to get someone to legitimaly fix EFS partition to get IMEI and Baseband back, it's tricky. Then there's country codes CSC to deal with.

But the exynos version seems better for modding, more options, development, if you're going there.

I did not like the S7 on stock ROM. Even rooted and Nova launcher.

I prefer Fragment ROM over Samsung.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] _LLJY:
At least it's still better than Samsung's AOSP support....
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Well as far as I see it Samsung is the apple of the Android world now... After the S6 it was basically ready to start running iOS :p
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Bäcker:
as they really don't need to offer anything else. Sony's half-assed move towards AOSP was just an attempt to attract additional buyers while they were already struggling.

Cannot change min CPU freq from settings, the message I receive when I click on apply is always 300 MHz. I'm on 3.4.

Guys, do you have some issues with making a screenshot? I can't make it with hardware buttons combo, item in power menu, or other screenshot apps. Not sure if it something on my side, or in the rom.

Made these with buttons.

Maybe clean install?

Full ROM

Some changes to Stamina Mode to be more stable by Kansasboy001. It also allows Battery Care to work but I'm testing it and so far no crashes but it hasn't activated yet so it needs to learn my charge times...

It's a work in progress. I have less time now I started university.

Once I've got it to a stage I think it's worth releasing I will release it :)

Hey on the latest 3.4, after installing in the right rom + OTA + Patch + OTA order, the wifi disconnects every couple of seconds. Any ideas?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] azim0106:
Help me to install this rom on my xperia z3 d6633

Hello all,

I have Xperia Z3 Dual D6633 with stock mm, i want to root my xperia and install recovery for this rom, but i dont want to unlock my bootloader, for root i have to downgrade to D6633_23.0.F.1.74 version.

i want to ask several things.

1. Can i flash this rom directly after downgrade D6633_23.0.F.1.74 , or do i need to flash mm prerooted zip before flashing this rom to my phone.

2. Is this rom is fully stable i basically want no overheat with the best camera.

3. First i need to flash MWA V5.0.0 and then the patch for D6633.

4. Is my recovery and root works after flashing this rom.

Thanks in Advance
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Me Gusta:
You will have to downgrade to 4.0.4 indeed. That's just the way it is.

1. You can flash it directly! :svetius:

2. Fully stable! 100% stable

3. This isn't MWA, but yeah. Rom first, patch afterwards.

4. Recovery and root will be fully functional after flashing this.

Hope this helps! If you'd like to know anything else, feel free to ask.

Edit: just root using this thread: http://xdaforums.com/z3/general/guide-rootrecovery-how-to-root-install-t3017056/page105

But you probably already had this figured out :p
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Only one problem. I don't have a patch for Dual SIM.

Most likely the patch from MWA would work though so worth a try
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Me Gusta:
Oh, welp.. can't help your with that. I just have the D6603
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Horgar:
If there's no patch for this rom you can still root and flash another 6.0.1 customised stock rom with a locked bootloader. And you don't necessarily need to downgrade to 4.0.4. I usually downgrade to 5.1.1, use kingroot to root (it does work on 5.1.1), immediately use supersume to replace kingroot with supersu and you're rooted. Then use your computer to flash nuts dual recovery and then download and flash a 6.0.1 stock rom of your choice. I've found this is the quickest way.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
There is now a method to root 6.0.1 LB by getting recovery and flashing SU

You just have to downgrade the kernel only to .575 version and then after using the tool to get recovery you can flash SuperSU and upgrade the kernel back to the .291 or just flash a whole custom ROM.

AFAIK Kingoroot sends your IMEI etc to a server in China that isn't known :/
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] MrBarkan:
When necessary, the way I do it is through flash tools, I flash the original KK ROM, install KingRoot then XRecovery, then flash a pre rooted+ recovery stock, then a custom ROM. I think it's the safest, most solid, fool proof method.

Btw, [MENTION=7144653]Dobsgw[/MENTION], this is the best ROM I've used on the Z3, this latest update is solid, great battery life with performance to spare. Cheers mate.

Sup guys, something I noticed recently after going back to 4.0.4 to lock bootloader is that my lte connection was a lot better.. Is this just a visual glitch, or could it actually be something about this rom?

I'm on t-mobile NL by the way.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
You could test it. If you find a way to change the signal icons to dBm (the unit for signal strength) then it would show if better or not.

I would say likely it's the same between the two.

Only reason to lower it would be to save battery but that's a bad way to save consumers battery on a smart phone... They need signal :p

Another reason for it to be lowered could be safety as regulators are constantly making them lower the possibility of microwaves penetrating the himan body. Phone being mm away from skin in your pocket and all.

Also 6.0.1 might just show it as a "lower signal" because the expectations for signal are stronger these days.

Would be interesting to test though.

If anyone knows more please share!

Stock Z3 systemUI with the merged wifi and signal icons and circular home button. Backup the System partition in TWRP before you flash just incase. If something goes wrong you only need to restore system instead of everything else to save time :)

Well i searched my entire laptop for your request and posted 2 systemui's what i thought it was working and now you said "never" ? Hmm it toke me 2 days to search your lovely systemui (next time make a back up) but i consider it was on my external harddrive what is destroyed totally.. But happy you have it now on a RXS family rom !

Btw:

I still working on MWA V6 for Z3 what is totally my last work here for the untgratefulls and also the thanksfull people and it will fix and improve alot and also working in MWA V1 for Z5 what i continue for sure.

Is there a way to allow Themes to color the pull down notification shade? No matter what I do or select it is always blue.

Try setting a new theme and restarting systemUI / rebooting

Mine is black after changing to black but sometimes i have to restart the UI

A reboot has the same effect.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
As I said I don't blame you, no harsh feelings. Not beeing ungrateful. As I wrote, neither of 2 apks you provided worked well, which I wrote in Amaluna/Pro-Spect thread. And as far as I remember I made a small donation to help you buy a new harddrive :) So I can't understand your reproaches.

Your rom is exactly what I was looking for. Debloated, clean and the preinstalled fonts are really nice. I'm especially fond of the white theme. I'm really looking forward to v2 :good:
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] ItsDon:
Thanks for this but it doesn't seem to work on my phone. When I do as you suggest and set the Black theme and then reboot I can get kind of a purple/grey notification shade but that's it. Black is the only theme that will modify the shade color, all others remain blue. I did a wipe cache/dalvik and reflash rom last night but no change.

I'm sure you already do this but.....

The way I get into mine is to power off the phone and then while holding the power button I constantly mash the volume down over and over quickly, like 50 times. It will eventually vibrate and then boot into TWRP.
