Reboot. Wait for green light. Press volume down once or twice. purple light and youre in recovery

Otherwise... Seen this on someone elses phone at the moment. Try running recroot by Wolfbreak (this is what does the ROM) and it will install TWRP again.

If that doesn't work you may need to re do the entire root process. There is also now a new tool for the .575 kernel that will get you recovery.

Go check out the Z3 general thread near the top and give it a go.

This shouldn't happen and i don't think it's ROM related
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Okay I need details and screen shots.

What do you want to change colour and what colour is it?

If it's stuck on light blue then there's a problem. If it's really dark blue that's normal as it's the Android colour.

When I change themes these are the colour changes I notice:

That's green and yellow themes at work.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] ojessie:
intern

Well I'm rooted checked it with root explorer. But the purple led is not coming up. Fastboot flashed adv.stock kernel installed your rom again and it happened again.. No purple led No access to twrp recovery
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
If you install my rom over advanced kernel it will over write it because I include kernel etc

I think youre meant to install custom kernels after

Also remember it's pre-rooted so you'll be flashing LB root over UB root
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Horgar:
Did you update busybox? You will lose recovery if you do this on mm.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
I don't have whatsnew and I got this update. WN shows as a separate install.

Likely a patch for something. No harm to do it.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] MasMamed:
Just want to say a massive thank you ! This is the best thing I've ever installed. Battery life is amazing at the moment. I was lucky enough to try unreleased (yet) version 4. And guys omg I swear you will love it as well as i do!

Keep it up! Also can you send me a link to your donations? Because you so deserve it man :good:
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
Sounds interesting :thumbup:
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] krisan47:
Just trying this ROM on my UB'd D6653. So far so good. Battery is good. Camera is good. So smooth. Just a note to others who want to try this ROM, after flashing DONT flash custom kernel or you'll end up in bootloop.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Bäcker:
There is a big yellow donate button under his Name ;)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
You can flash any custom kernel apart from Elite Kernel.

I need to contact ShadowElite and work out what's wrong. It must be something minor to fix as PDesire used my rom as base for his and EKernel is working.

I use Advanced Kernel.

You have to install Fragment. Boot up. Go to SuperSU and uninstall it fully. Then boot to TWRP and flash the kernel.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] krisan47:
Yeah, Elite Kernel doesn't work with Fragment. One thing I forgot, you added Blur SystemUI that requires xposed, but I found no xposed built in this ROM. I need to install xposed manually then Blur SystemUI works as expected. CMIIW.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Me Gusta:
But please don't make xposed framework pre-installed!! It messes with your system and some (I hope most) don't want it.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
It's there because you can't download it. I got it from Serajr directly :)

Xposed is optional but the installer is there to make it easy for people to install. You can disable it from settings or just delete from system.

This rom is made for people who want to customise. I just provide a solid base
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
Unreleased version 4, huh? :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] MasMamed:
Yeah :) I get to test everything before he releases it
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
Jammy lol,heard it's awesome though
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] eldoggor:
Now i want v4 too :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Brutale1090!:
I've got a problem with a setprop script set into the SU.d folder not affecting the build.prop even if SU ist allowed during boot. Could you help me guys? I'm on the last version of this fantastic rom.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
Sooo... Since you are teasing so much... Any release date? :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
I'll try and upload today. I want to update a couple system apps first like G Services to reduce space taken on data partition. Helpful to a few people my self included

Google keeps updating it because of safety net though and killing my data....
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
V4 is released. Link on downloads page
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
When will mega mirror be uploaded
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
When I'll download from original link and upload it to MEGA :P Propably in an hour or two.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
Awesome thanks
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
You don't mind making mirrors do you?

It's not necessary if you dont want to :p
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
Not at all... It's just taking some time, and I don't have much of spare time, so there can be some delay ;)

Anyway, here's MEGA

and GDrive
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
Just installed this rom, very light with loads of available memory :thumbup:

---------- Post added at 05:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:23 PM ----------

Can the blue notification bar background be changed
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Yeah it accords to theme same as Quick Settings. Change theme and restart system UI / reboot and it will be the colour of the theme
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
It's like pandemics rom then in that way
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Yeah it's a framework mod. Was requested when i released V1 and I just kept forgetting to add it
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Brutale1090!:
Up
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
What is the setprop script?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Brutale1090!:
More properly said setprop is a script that temporarly modifies build.prop on each boot. Program is that the script doesn't affect build.prop, even if permissions are set on 755 and the file is put in system/su.d folder. Su permission is enabled on boot.

I'm posting here because since I use this rom, it is not working anymore. In attachment the file. I,ve added the text extension to be able to upload it.

I'm the only one in the arise sound mod thread not being able to use the setprop, I have this problem since I use this rom.

I've the stock kernel.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
Is 8% drain with 33 mins screen On time decent I'm only in my first proper discharge cycle
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] MrBarkan:
Did you have any problems with cyberian ? Mine doesn't show image ...
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Camera is set back to stock for the ROM so flashing Cyberian should work.

I haven't tested it on V4 but on V3.4 which is essentially the same it was working great

I would test but I'm actually enjoying stock camera for now
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Why not manually add the changes to build.prop?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
Using cyberian camera on v4 works perfectly
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Brutale1090!:
Which version?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Cyberian V4.2 which is latest.

Did you clear data from Camera, camera common, and video and reboot?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Brutale1090!:
It is a part of an audiomod which gets updated often, setprop is really useful cause you just need to change the this file in the su.d folder.

Problem is, it doesn't work only with this rom.

---------- Post added at 01:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:28 PM ----------

Before or after flashing the zip?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
[MENTION=4250299]Brutale1090[/MENTION] v4.2 and clear data from camera, camera common and video in settings /apps then flash cyberian in recovery works perfectly
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Okay what ROMs does it work on and can you link me to the audio mod?

I need to see these files etc as I'm using systemless SU so my folder paths are different
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Brutale1090!:
Could you post a version with system SU? I would test. I suppose it could be the reason.

Here is the link of the, in my opinion, best audio mod in the Android world:

http://xdaforums.com/android/software/r-s-e-sound-systems-auditory-research-t3379709
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Okay and which zip from AFH did you download and flash? I'm not familiar with this mod so I need you to be specific as there are several files to download....
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Brutale1090!:
Ok. Deuteronomy version, last build (2.1). But I have this problem since the older versions (for example numbers 3.5).

The problem is: the setprop file I'm attaching doesn't modify the build.prop when put in the SU.d folder as it should.

That would be so cool if you could integrate this mod in your ROM.

The Z3 DAC is fantastic and the output becomes so good when the original Sony Sound Enhancement gets disabled and this MOD enabled.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] MrBarkan:
Didn't work for me, I'll try to dirty flash the ROM and re-do the process.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Brutale1090!:
Did for me
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
I don't incorporate sound mods as everyone has a different preference but I will have a go at making it compatible for you.

Honestly I don't think there can be anything stopping it working but I will investigate
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Brutale1090!:
Thank you!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] MrBarkan:
Oddly it worked now. Thanks!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
If you mean this setprop which I'm attaching in screenshots then it should work as it is.

You can manually add those values to the build.prop and they will remain permanently.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Brutale1090!:
For sure it does if I copy them, the problem is that it doesn't apply automatically and as the mod gets updated almost every two-three days, it's quite uncomfortable.

I'm the only one in their thread with the problem.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Okay I'll try and figure out what the problem is. For now you'll just have to put up with manual editing I'm afraid
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] francesco_mnz:
Hi, to everyone who installed v4, may I ask if the 3 dots menu lag is gone or still there? Thanks
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
Yep
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] francesco_mnz:
You mean it's gone or still there?:D
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
Still there, as the base of the rom didn't change
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Still there. It's a bug from apk tool recompiling. Nothing I can do other than not mod the framework-res.apk and it's such a minor issue so until apk tool gets fixed it's gonna stay :p
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] francesco_mnz:
Haha I find this so annoying as you know:D just asked cause I saw Existenz developer fixed it, so hoped for that.

Thanks for your work!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] ecsjjgg:
I have some problems...

Hi, my first problem with Your ROM is that I can't seem to connect it to my computer and use Xperia Companion... It just says "connect the phone with USB-Cable"

But I can see both the phone and the SD-Card in my explorer window (when I click it I can see both Internal and SD-Card), but Xperia Companion still just says "Connect the phone with USB-Cable", why is that?? I dirty flashed this rom over a working one (SLiMM ROM v3.7), where Xperia Companion worked flawless...

My other problem is that I can't seem to disable the Stamina Notification, I can disable it, but when I plug in my phone then plug it out, then the stamina notification is there again! And when I longpress it, it shows as disabled, so I have to enable/disable it to make it go away!

Couldn't You just remove this ugly notification, like SLiMM???

Sorry for nagging, I really like Your ROM, it has a great battery life... It is just these 2 problems I have with your ROM...
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
No worries bro I'm always open to critique!

Once I get a chance (been away from PC all weekend) I will take a look. I don't think my phone can show in PC companion because i have an unlocked bootloader but if anyone else here could test that would be great.

I'm not having such issues with Stamina mode, but again I will try and make it happen on my phone to test.

And yes I can remove the notification for the next update.

What I suggest to you is to eliminate the possibility that it is an error on your part. You need to ensure all the correct drivers are installed on your PC for Xperia Companion to work. Also ensure that when the phone is plugged in and unlocked then press the option for Transferring Data.

Also you should do a clean install. Dirty flashing from one ROM to another often causes these issues and all users who did a clean install haven't reported these problems.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] ecsjjgg:
OK, I'll try a clean install later... But my pc is ok, as it worked with SLiMM ROM, as I said...
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Okay. The clean install might clear up the issues with Xperia Companion so let me know.

Meanwhile: anyone else having trouble with PC Companion?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] MrBarkan:
What bug is this ?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Causes a lag on the small menu that pops down when you tap the three dots in top corner of some apps.

It's not a major bug and most of the custom ROMs here have it.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
Do you mean in system apps menu
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Made mistake. Making second reply
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Correct reply:

In any app

So as example that menu in the top right corner of XDA Labs if my system animation was turned on it would open the menu with some lag rather than being completely smooth.

I don't even notice it anymore I've had it since I was using other devs ROMs
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Pluton1C:
Works without any issues...
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] MrBarkan:
Never noticed... Interesting...

I did notice though that the video frame rate for the camera is much higher... I guess it's a cyberian cam feature? Very cool
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] AdiSimpson:
is it normal that with stamina on with performance setting, performance is still noticeable degraded ?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Yep. That's how stamina works.

Possibly the effect is exaggerated on Z3 due to a slower processor
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] AdiSimpson:
okay, i hoped it now works more like stamina on lollipop, same performance with batterysaving in standby.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
That's more what Doze does.

Stamina isn't great for MM but they have done a decent job
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] _LLJY:
Use apktool 2.1.1 it helps, no menu lag here.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Okay then it's fixed thanks.

I'll get around to it at some point. It will take a while though
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Today's battery. Even with Android N-ify looking good
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Brutale1090!:
Can I help you somehow?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Not really. I just need to find why it doesn't work. You've given me as much info as possible for now with the version of the mod etc
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Brutale1090!:
Are you experiencing the same even with UB?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] AdiSimpson:
brightness setting ?

whats that for a mod@batteryusage ?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] francesco_mnz:
Which beautiful theme is this?:)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
I haven't flashed the mod to try. It will screw up SuHide as it will create a new SU folder in system and I need everything systemless.

I think it's a case of changing where the file is placed for it to work. Most of the scripts for Z3 are executed on boot from /etc/
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Auto Brightness as always at 40% on the slider.

That's android N-ify
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Android N-ify and Niaboc's Android N theme
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Brutale1090!:
You don't need to flash the mod, just if the script affects the getprop result. Could it be the init.d folder?

---------- Post added at 04:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:22 AM ----------

Where can we find the theme? I've used Google but no results.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
The theme is here on the Z3 threads and Android N-ify is available from XDA or the Xposed repo
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:

Het, [MENTION=7144653]Dobsgw[/MENTION], maybe you (or [MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION], if he doesn't mind) could theme Fragment Modules icon, to make it match to other settings icons?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
I'm no themer so I know I can't add it myself.

You could try PMing him.

I know he's busy these days. Even slowed development on his ROM so I don't know if he will want to add such a minor detail.

BTW you should get the experimental builds of N-ify. It has full theme for Settings apk to make it look like N etc.

It's on the thread in second or third post and when installed you go to about and then tap the N logo like you would to unlock Developer Mode in settings.

Them you have experimental features
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Brutale1090!:
I'm on the 4th version, and I have this huge battery drain from Google Play Services.

What can I do?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Tap it and show the info for what was active etc.

It will show mobile radio active time and CPU time.

Chances are it was a fluke wake lock. Could be low signal or something. Just reboot and then start from 100% charged battery and see if it happens again.

If it's still doing it tomorrow then go to Settings - Apps - Google Play Services and tap the three dots in the top right and uninstall updates.

It will update itself again in the background and might sort the wake locks.

Beware you will lose accounts doing this as it will wipe data so you'll have to add back after
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
Is it your first charge cycle
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Brutale1090!:
Here you are
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Brutale1090!:
Nope
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
It's a wake lock

Reboot and hopefully it doesn't do it again.

Not getting that here so I think it's just for once

Hi, is that possible to revert the WiFi icon back to stock? I did not like the new WiFi representation near the signal icon. It's just too subtle to notice. Thank You
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Try a different SystemUI. For example mine is based on jjwrongjj's XZ port so you could flash that systemUI and get the stock wifi icon

I flashed jjwrongjj's latest SystemUI and now I have the icon back, thanks [emoji4]

Dear [MENTION=7144653]Dobsgw[/MENTION] why with stamina on (with option "battery time preferred") notifications arrive, when it's supposed that they don't have to arrived ...
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] GenesMan:
Are you guys having Scrollbar issues with this ROM? I mean when you click any link on a list item it send you to another menu, but when you click Back it sends you to somewhere different within the list from where you was when you clicked before. Do you understand?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
Not sure what you mean? Could you describe it with some example?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Not sure about that. Perhaps something is waking the phone with superUser permissions (I imagine this overrides stamina) and then the phone is checking GMS due to wake up.

I personally don't find stamina very useful since MM.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Tell me when it happens with a specific example that I can do on my phone to check.

Personally haven't noticed a single glitch that isn't from Stock Sony and I've been using V4 for a long time now.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] GenesMan:
I noticed that in Twitter Oficial App and Instagram

Maybe its an App bug, but it is reproduced also in Instagram so I supposed it was something with the scrolling libraries
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
I haven't experienced this in any apps.

Nor should any mods in the ROM cause it to happen.

If anyone else is having this please report and I'll check it out
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Jess182:
I believe the same, but with xZ's engine stamina improves a little

Then, it could have a fix or not :(

I'm putting some stuff together for a little 4.1 update but there's nothing significant enough for a release.

Biggest change is moving the location of Soft Charge from About - Status to the battery section where stamina is.

Then just updates of system apps.

V4.0 is stable and I'm happy with where it is until anything major comes along.
