[Xperia Z2 General] Pixelado:
As the title goes, animations/transitions are way too fast/sped up on stock marshmallow, which makes the phone feel like a cheap chinnese no-brand knock-off. I tried my hand at restoring stock 6.0 transitions with a VRTheme package but it threw me into a bootloop (odexed stock rom to blame).

Any ideas on how to de-crappify system transitions? I already tried setting window and transition animation scales on dev settings, but it messes with apps which use native transitions extensively (such as QuickPic). I thought about installing xposed and using XuiMod but it doesn't offer stock animations AFAIK.

Opinion: i HATE when OEMs alter system animations just for the sake of giving an illusion of speed, especially on phones that don't need such tricks like the Z2 ;)
[Xperia Z2 General] dieccast39:
The update is 291 is crap! This stamina is nonsense! I am going back to 5.1.1
[Xperia Z2 General] Vic.:
I have my transition animation scale set to 2x and it looks pretty good. Granted, it doesn't fix the fact that the phone is skipping frames all over the place (I blame Sony for screwing with the software), but it's still closer to the Nexus experience.
[Xperia Z2 General] Pixelado:
I tried that, but stuff gets weird because not all animations were sped up by Sony (ej: IME and QuickPic animations). Also, I don't feel comfortable leaving dev settings on at all times.

I wonder if they did the same to the Z3. I'm seriously considering flashing a deodexed stock rom just because of this. I'm just not willing to go with custom roms yet, 291 is otherwise a pretty damn solid rom.
[Xperia Z2 General] iXaidyiu:
Have you tried flashing stock .FTF via flashtool? Afterwards it should be all fine.
[Xperia Z2 General] Pixelado:
Yes, that's how I got .291

Yes, I tried a clean install

No, it didn't fix the animations
[Xperia Z2 General] iXaidyiu:
Did you tried flahing different region firmware? And you should have WIPE-USER-DATA to ensure original.
[Xperia Z2 General] Pixelado:
Yeah man, I did everything there is to be done. Nothing helps and it seems I'm not the only one so the problem is not on my end. Guess I'll use a 1.5x transition scale for now.
[Xperia Z2 General] iXaidyiu:
Strange though…
[Xperia Z2 General] oo.viper.oo:
Same feeling here, transitions are fast and frames skipped all over the place + no true stamina and worse battery time = flashing back 5.1.1 at this moment.
[Xperia Z2 General] Pixelado:
Yep, the Z3 has ugly animations on 6.0 too.

Guess Sony had to screw up *somehow* before abandoning our phones (read: no updates)

On a side note: I tried extracting stock 6.0 animations from a CM13 framework-res.apk and installing them using a VRTheme zip, but my Z2 wound up into a bootloop. Restoring a TWRP backup resulted in a systemui FC loop at bootup. Restoring data only from my TWRP + flashing a stock 291 system image thru flashtool didnt help either. I literally started over from scratch.

"if it ain't broken, fix it until it is"
[Xperia Z2 General] Odeira.Oloap:
Yeah, I noticed the super sped up animations, I can't really do anything, and I don't have a problem with it, the rest of the phone is super fast like the animation.

Also, reverting to Lollipop from Marshmallow because of that and the removal of Stamina Mode is like you owning a Tesla and trading it in for a Ford F150 because you don't like having to charge your car like your phone. But that's just me, Stamina Mode on Marshmallow is just laughable compared to the Lollipop version...
[Xperia Z2 General] Pixelado:
I'm not willing to go back to LP and its mem leaks. I'll put up with 1.5x animations until I finally bother to flash a deodexed ROM. But man, stock .291 flies on this phone.

[Xposed General] b*_gently_*d:
Hi there!

Yes, in "RootCloak Plus", the entry de.fiducia.smartphone.android.securego.wl does exist.

There's another confusing circumstance: I don't know how to launch the Xposed Installer programme. The only way - for me right now - is to navigate to "downloads", and then to re-install some downloaded *.apk as an update. Then, and only then, I'm inside the Xposed Installer. :p

Under "Remove native root detection for apps", the box "SecureGo" is checked.
[Xposed General] mattzeller:
In your app drawer (if Xposed is properly unstalled) should be the Xposed app. After you install an Xposed module you have to activate the module in the Xposed app and reboot for it to work. Sounds like that hasn't been done. How did you install Xposed?

Sent from my SCH-R220
[Xposed General] b*_gently_*d:
OK, let's have a look: I've got a sort of menu that is pushed from the left side into the app "Xposed modules". Within this menu drawer, there's: Modules, Install Xposed Framework, More modules, Root, XDA, latest 24 hours, all unread, all marked, downloads, synchronise now, settings (translated from German).

The apps "Xposed modules" and "RootCloak" are installed from stalk Google Play Store.

The device was restarted several times, and from a certain moment on, everytime it started, I had to confirm elevated privileges (for rootcloak).

Let's have a look on what has changed:

uninstalled the beta and experimental versions

now, there's only one "RootCloak" v2.1.1 (and no longer a "RootCloak Plus" next to it), downloaded and installed from "Xposed Installer"

downloaded and installed the *.apk of "Xposed Installer" v2.6.1

I took the version numbers from the Android OS settings menu

the icon for "Xposed Modules" is no longer shown

however, I did not remove SecureGo while making changes.

I didn't have to grant elevated privileges (only when Xposed Installer installed RootCloak)

I'm posting the latest log-file!

still failure

Inspired by your previous posts and having followed your advice, I now have a phone running Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow.

I tried to install Suhide and SuperSU systemlessly [?] (or at least I think, I did it that way because I was in Recovery Mode/TWRP. There, I simply clicked "install" and did nothing but install both zip-files.

The line that stated, that a boot image had not been found and therefore the process was aborting patching the boot.img, attracted my attention.

Within the restarted Android-OS, I never found an app icon for SuperSU or Suhide. Nevertheless, I found out SecureGo's UID (10xxx) and gave the following command:

/data/adb/suhide-add 10xxx

for adding SecureGo to the blacklist.

But nothing has changed ... SecureGo still denies its job.
[Xposed General] mattzeller:
Check the suhide thread, other people have the same sort of issue, in that you are using CM SuperSU that is not systemless, need to disable it for systemless su to work

Sent from my SCH-R220
[Xposed General] b*_gently_*d:
By "CM SuperSU", do you mean Cyanogenmod S.SU? Are there versions different to Chainfire's one?

I realised that, in TWRP, I can also give commands in a terminal (surprise :good:). But I do believe this is Busybox ... read it somewhere, but can't tell where or when exactly.

Do I need ADB installed? I'm asking because it appears in the commands.

I noticed that, when running the Android-OS, Jack Palevich's "Terminal Emulator" is not rooted (showing $ instead of #).

But the strangest thing of all is: I cannot detect any signs that suhide or supersu are installed ... how could I possibly check this?

:confused:
[Xposed General] mattzeller:
Yes, at least how it's implemented in the ROM

Is your Busybox up to date?

If you have to issue these commands from your computer to the phone you would need ADB on your computer. Is ADB turned on in developer options?

Did you type su in Terminal Emulator?

Give me some time, I'll do a backup and see what you are seeing.

In looking at Chainfire's thread to install Systemless root, I discovered that there are special boot.img files that need to be flash, my device is not on that list. But he does have some things that might shed some light on the issue.

1) Is your device one of the supported devices?

2) If so, did you do a clean flash? Did you flash the boot.img and su zips immediately? The thread says you need to make sure to flash the systemless stuff before the built in su does anything because the systemless flashing doesn't clean up other root implementations and can create problems. That's why it is mandatory for a clean flash of the ROM.

3) After you do all that, install the SuperSU app from the play store and see what happens

Sent from my SCH-R220
[Xposed General] b*_gently_*d:
I don't know how to check whether Busybox is up to date or not (I was talking about the TWRP-Terminal outside Android-OS).

When I type 'su' into the Terminal Emulator - similarly to GNU/Linux -, I have no longer got the first line, but the second of the following:

DEVICENAME@janice:/ $ su
1|DEVICENAME@janice:/ $ sudo
/system/bin/sh: sudo: not found
127|DEVICENAMEQ@janice:/ $

(This is a true quote from my in-OS terminal.)

I'll have to look for those boot images and the list of the supported devices ... Or would you give me a direct link? (I already gave the exact name of my device.)

What exactly is a "clean flash", and which *.img or *.zips would have to be flashed? Do you mean something like from my own smarty history? From this list I basically only did step 4 when installing MM/CM13.

There's something else: Under "Developers' options/settings" (don't know how it is in English), you can choose between "never", "when debugging via USB" and "when loading". Has this something to say?

Please give me a short reply if I should perform the whole list of steps or similar or not because I don't want to waste time only to repeat it again and again :eek: :cool:

stock firmware fail

Hallo there!

In my "desperation", I tried to install the original stock firmware Android 4.1.2 to check if SecureGo does its job in general (the bank app).

Besides, on Android 4.4.4 KitKat (which I've been using of late), I also had a running app "IB Key" (a broker identification tool). This was no longer working on Android 6.0.1beta Marshmallow. I could have rung the broker - but I wanted to check first if it's an OS matter.In fact, it was a broker matter. That one is solved.

The install routine of stock Android 4.1.2 Jellybean failed:

Could not find 'META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary' in the zip file.
Error [and so on]

A couple of days ago, I changed this update binary while installing Marshmallow. I don't remember the particulars, but I guess, I changed it because of the P-version (i9070p) of the Samsung Galaxy Advance.

Does it basically suffice to perform these five steps?

I'm stuck :crying: Can you help me? Thanks a lot, mattzeller, for your advice until now. I hope this matter can be solved :)

Well, that is not the thing I was hoping for ... in fact, the "stock firmware" I was talking about had been taken from the exact link you just gave me. When I was first installing customROMs, I switched between that very one and KitKat 4.4.4 because of trial and error and so on.

The problem must be a technical issue for which, I admit, I need a hint. If I'm right and I really had to change the "update binary" for the sake of the P-version, then why do I experience problems with the stock firmware which, of course, implicates the P-version? The installation folders or files must differ or something ... All those sites are known to me because I had to consult them when switching to the customROM.

Does your post mean, mattzeller, that you just can't guess what's the matter here? What would you do if you had the imbecile idea of switching back to your phone's firmware and this error occurred?

Can you please give me an answer to the question concerning the "five steps"? (September 6th). Would be great :cool: But anyway, thank you so far!!!

Supplementary note

I have successfully returned to my Samsung Galaxy S Advance's stock firmware Android 4.1.2 Jellybean. SecureGo has eventually begun to do its job. I'm aware that this is not my own choice. I feel myself compelled by the nowadays industry to take part in that game, and I'd much rather install a customROM than the firmware ... But acting that way obviously renders the using of applications like SecureGo practically impossible. As soon as my immediate business via SecureGo is settled, I'll have to consult my bank whether the former system of mobileTAN or something similar is still possible or/and check whether "Xposed/Rootcloak" or even "suhide" are working with SecureGo after a clean installation. But this means time and effort, especially when considering that the banks and brokers will want to have the apps registered any time when there has been a change ... Sad story! :( :angel:

Hi guys.

I have a Zenfone 5 A501CG with Lollipop (3.24.40.87_20151222_34) and I rooted the phone.

There are some things which I would like to improve like better battery, better gps signal, louder volume on the speaker and get signal back after I lost it (eg.: I'm in a zone with bad coberture and I lost the signal and then I go to a good spot. To get the signal back I need to reboot my phone or I will stay like airplane mode).

So I'm thinking to install a CFW. I still have warranty of phone (5 months left) but if I have any problems I can get it to stock right?

My question is: what's the best CFW for my phone and how to install it?

Thanks for your attention.

if you wanna use cfw, you must unlock bootloader (ubl)
