Are you trying to enter to it with the device off and pressing the Vol- button before even powering on the device? That's the only way to enter to it when Reboot to recovery is not accesible from the ROM.
[Sony Xperia M2] galaxyfreak:
CM bug, broken on all devices.

Take CM13 APK.

Actually not true, reboot to recovery from OS works for me.
[Sony Xperia M2] methuntt:
how many minutes i have to press sir

---------- Post added at 08:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:44 PM ----------

sir recovery from os turns pink led into orange and wait for some seconds and finally mobile restarts..

sorry for my english
[Sony Xperia M2] linuxct:
True that. I've edited the post to avoid confussion, I'm sorry.

---------- Post added at 20:53 ---------- Previous post was at 20:52 ----------

While device is off, press and hold Vol- button, then press the power button until it vibrates without releasing the Vol- button yet. When the Sony logo appears you can stop pressing the Vol- button.

Sound is low in latest update. How to increase the volume?
[Sony Xperia M2] kunalkhatri2109:
why my mobile cant flash it (d2302):confused:
[Sony Xperia M2] Jeff Vivas:
Help!

Guys...

I have TWRP 3.1.0, bootloader updated and all necesary to install RC2, but I can't, it show me on the screen:

"Process end finished error:7" and the same with Gapps :crying:

I need some help for solve this problem, please.

I have D2303
[Sony Xperia M2] galaxyfreak:
Has been discussed numerous times.
[Sony Xperia M2] Vtrendzzy:
It worked. What if i set it to 100?
[Sony Xperia M2] JuniorCaesar:
you will get sizzle on both sides, but try it out and see which value is good for you :)
[Sony Xperia M2] molnartibor:
anybody else experiencing battery drain with RC2? like 25% down overnight?
[Sony Xperia M2] basem_ym:
Yes, but rarely(happened 1 time or 2, so its not related to the Rom)

See power consumption in settings, if you found anything related to GMS turn WiFi off before you go to sleep, also turn off Live Display.
[Sony Xperia M2] JuniorCaesar:
if you flashed recently, let battery settle itself. yes, rc2 drains "a little bit more" than beta 5, but i think it is tradeable with sudden freezes :)

also, put your phone in airplane mode at night, mine is dropping %1 or 2 in 9 hours.
[Sony Xperia M2] alvydasd2:
Why does my carrier name have numbers instead of text in all of your roms
[Sony Xperia M2] Arceus99:
Vibration intensity

[MENTION=4635923]galaxyfreak[/MENTION] is there any way to increase vibration intensity because currently it doesn't feel like vibrating for calls when in my pocket
[Sony Xperia M2] galaxyfreak:
There might be 3rd party apps. If not, I will look into it.
[Sony Xperia M2] molnartibor:
vibration intensity in RC2 rather needs to be decreased than increased. interestingly, previous LOS/CM releases had a menu option to set vibrator intensity, but it's missing from "our" rom (if you search the settings menu it finds a result but the setting ins not visiblle)
[Sony Xperia M2] Vtrendzzy:
I lost app data twice on this rom. Everything comes back to default factory setting. I've to setup altogether. What could cause this issue?
[Sony Xperia M2] methos_276:
Do a clean install, I've wipped also my internal memory in the process and no problems for me, only when I did a dirty flash my phone got stuck, it didn't start correctly
[Sony Xperia M2] hooooossamq:
you mean after you make restore your backup for this rom?
[Sony Xperia M2] harbinfetaii:
I wanted to activate root, but it says only ADB. How to activate it for apps?
[Sony Xperia M2] Th3 Ant:
Flash SuperSU add-on from LineageOS page
[Sony Xperia M2] harbinfetaii:
Thank you so much for the helpful information!
[Sony Xperia M2] harbinfetaii:
I'm sure that someone else has mentioned this bug or issue but I cannot find it. When I'm on lockscreen I get a red led. Why's that?
[Sony Xperia M2] molnartibor:
its not a led red but the proximity sensor being active. its some nougat feature, but i dont recall its function right now, probably something with gestures.

also, headphone volume control is still buggy on the rom, it seems the volume buttons are mapped wrongly. the system registers the press, but their are acting as some kind of enter key (entering menus, ticking boxes, etc)
[Sony Xperia M2] Th3 Ant:
It's just proximity sensor... Nothing to worry about [emoji14]
[Sony Xperia M2] JuniorCaesar:
it is not fault of this rom, even stock is not support that(if i remember correctly)

but, you can get it work (if you have android compatible headphone, apple ones have different mapping)

1-) Install Key Tester app on Playstore

2-) Press vol up and down buttons and remember the key names

3-) Go to /system/usr/keylayout and open Generic.kl file with text editor

4-) Change the button names to VOLUME_UP and VOLUME_DOWN

on my side, i have BUTTON_6 and BUTTON_8 as volume keys and it works flawlessly.
[Sony Xperia M2] molnartibor:
thanks ceasar, i will give it a try. in stock ROM the volume keys worked flawlessly, it got broken my CM/LOS.

edit: the key tester app recognizes the play/pause keys, but not the volume keys. even if in other apps i can clearly see that the volume buttons are definitely doing "something"
[Sony Xperia M2] JuniorCaesar:
are you sure that your headphone is compatible with android phones? i have meizu headphone and it recognizes just fine.

or you can compare Generic.kl from stock rom with yours
[Sony Xperia M2] Vtrendzzy:
[MENTION=6339209]hooooossamq[/MENTION] [MENTION=5100701]methos_276[/MENTION]

I cleaned install this rom for the first time. Never did a dirty flash. At first, everything's fine.

Issues:

1) open any app, suddenly press back, phone reboots. Now touch won't work. You've to click the off button beside sim tray.

2) After some days, your settings are set to normal after any reboot. Wallpaper changed. Messages deleted. Whatsapp chats gone. Google account gone.

Usually after a factory reset, apps are also gone. The 2nd issue happens on its own. I didn't do a factory reset. Hope now you understand it fully.
[Sony Xperia M2] harbinfetaii:
I'm pretty sure that someone else has said something about this bug or problem or whatever it is.

At all ROMs that I've tried I'm getting very low low sound on the phone(without earphones/headphones on), meanwhile when I have them on it gives a lot of sound that my ear hurts.

Is there any solution to this?
[Sony Xperia M2] hooooossamq:
did you unlock you BL?

did you update your BL?

what is the recovry you using for flash the rom abd how you flash it? via flashtool or cmd comand?
[Sony Xperia M2] liwetlt:
7.1 rc2, not saved contacts of incoming calls are displayed with 16 digits, what can it be?
[Sony Xperia M2] molnartibor:
i did a full data wipe with RC2 due to the battery drain issue, but it's still persisting. interestingly, the battery starts to drain without any apparent reason. the phone is in standby mode, data and wifi off, battery drain is 1-2%/hour, then suddenly it increases to 15%/h while nobody touched the phone and no sms or call was received.

the draining process is Android OS.
[Sony Xperia M2] harbinfetaii:
I've tried many ROMs on this phone, recently I was using Lineage 14.1 and then I changed to this currently one(EagleXperience) which I regret of doing it.

I've used SlimLP, OmniROM, EagleXperience, but none of them worked as Lineage 14.1.
[Sony Xperia M2] basem_ym:
Did you install any crappy build.prop mod??

Did you turn off Live Display?

Do you use any kernel manager app?

You will find some tricks in previous posts, take a look.
[Sony Xperia M2] Vtrendzzy:
Yes.

Yes.

Latest version of twrp 3.1.1

Flashed zip.
[Sony Xperia M2] hooooossamq:
after you UNL your BL and UPDATE BL then flash the recovery throw cmd command not in a flashble zip
[Sony Xperia M2] Vtrendzzy:
i'll keep this in mind the next time i do it.
[Sony Xperia M2] hooooossamq:
is there any way to make this ROM look like the stock ROM?
[Sony Xperia M2] galaxyfreak:
What's the point of using this ROM then?

Use stock and edit build.prop to 7.1.1 if you want.
[Sony Xperia M2] hooooossamq:
i mean in theme only
[Sony Xperia M2] marco2tiger8:
I thought stock xperia rom looks like stock android but with different accent color?? :confused:
[Sony Xperia M2] hooooossamq:
not just the color.menu network indicator is much clear. navibar..
[Sony Xperia M2] marco2tiger8:
You can use omnirom or RR with substratum theme that looks similar to xperia.

If you want to use LOS, you can decompile the system and make your own change. Look on other xda thread for tutorial if you can't do it.

The last thing you can do is use stock rom or EagleExp. :cool:

I prefer using Omni with Android O theme and filled Xperia navbar (not just outline) theme.

Currently I'm using EagleExp to get better wifi connection.
[Sony Xperia M2] y.erenbektas:
Will you release a new update or did you decide to work on oreo?
[Sony Xperia M2] ilpianista:
KRACK

Hi, could you please rebuild this ASAP to get KRACK fixes?

Thanks in advance.
[Sony Xperia M2] harbinfetaii:
I'm currently using this, I've used most of them, this ROM is fantastic, amazing, brilliant but sometimes my SIM disappears.

It doesn't show it! I don't know why! Does anyone has any thoughts on it?

Also, is it good and does anyone knows zip patch or something that would speed up the ROM even more, or have even better battery life?
[Sony Xperia M2] JuniorCaesar:
this happens me too, try to eject sim card and insert it again, i don't know why tho
[Sony Xperia M2] basem_ym:
Same thing here.

The only bug I found in this rom is sim cards are messed up, sometime (but didn't happen from a while) no sim cards detected.

I tried the following:

Put data sim in slot 2 and calls sim in slot 1

I didn't edit any buildprop lines and sim cards works flawlessly :D

Try changing between sim cards, find the most suitable setting and hold on it.
[Sony Xperia M2] JuniorCaesar:
lol i have single sim device

anyway as you said, it does not happen after some time
[Sony Xperia M2] ARandomIndian:
WiFi has issues too could it be the new WiFi driver possibly?

Lots of latency and random switch offs/reboots
[Sony Xperia M2] hooooossamq:
i used this rom before and i dont face any wifi problem or random switch off.try to make a clean install using twrp v3.0.1b2
[Sony Xperia M2] molnartibor:
apparently i am not the only one with the disappearing sim issue.. i thought it's a problem with just my simcard, although i rarely have to remove it, usually just restart the phone and the sim works again.
[Sony Xperia M2] Billabomb75:
Can I upgrade from CM 13 ???
[Sony Xperia M2] harbinfetaii:
I'm sure that someone has asked for this "problem"(I guess), but there are a lot of comments and I can't find it.

When I turn on the screen it has more brightness then it goes down by itself.

Is that a problem? If yes, how can it be fixed?
[Sony Xperia M2] basem_ym:
First, do not ever quote the OP.

Second, read the OP and click on RC2, you will find that you can.

---------- Post added at 05:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:04 PM ----------

Did you make a clean install?

Or dirty flashed?
[Sony Xperia M2] harbinfetaii:
I made a clean one. I flashed the latest firmware, updated the bootloader, flashed TWRP and the ROM. This has happened with all the ROMs I've tried, not only with LineageOS 14.1.

---------- Post added at 05:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 PM ----------

Also, I'm sorry for commenting twice(but I forgot), are we able to flash Xposed on this ROM? If yes, can you send me the links?
[Sony Xperia M2] Billabomb75:
Need help I booted into cyanogenmod's recovery and wiped my system partition and it wont install linage os 14.1
[Sony Xperia M2] galaxyfreak:
Thats how auto-brightness works. Turn it off in settings.
[Sony Xperia M2] harbinfetaii:
That's the first thing I do when a ROM boots up. I've turned it off since the beginning.

If it was for example only on Lineage I would think that it might have to do something with the ROM, but it happens on all ROMs(not stock based ROMs).

It doesn't bother me at all, I just wanted to know. It's like I've turned 40% of the brightness then it goes 0% as I've set it.
[Sony Xperia M2] JuniorCaesar:
you can try rootdim app
[Sony Xperia M2] basem_ym:
So it doesn't seem like a bug, it seems like a nice animation feature for me at least.

If I were you, I would be happy :D

Xposed works flawlessly, I can't post links, please search for the respective thread, you will find it in seconds.

On my M2 i'm running lineagos # 14-1-20170510 (GUAVA7), without any problème. The phone is working very well. (TWRP 3.1.0.0)

I 've just a fiew questions :

1- it's in my best interest to go for the last release ?

2- Can I install this last release without loosing my personnal DATA and without having to re-install all app (firefox, silence, k9 ... )?

Thank's a lot for well done work on this rom :good:

has somebody successfully dirty flashed RC3 over RC1? I remember there was a post about flashing RC2 over RC1 without success
[Sony Xperia M2] Arceus99:
Can it be dirty flashed over RC2?
[Sony Xperia M2] xazakasrizava:
It worked just fine for me, didn't even wipe the cache.
[Sony Xperia M2] cybero2912:
and has anybody experience with dirty flashing over RC1?
[Sony Xperia M2] JuniorCaesar:
why don't you just take a backup and try instead of asking same thing two times? there should be no problems, as i said take a backup (in case things go wrong)

also, fresh install might be a good choice :)
[Sony Xperia M2] xazakasrizava:
Yeah I use Titanium Backup Pro, just try it for your self honestly.
[Sony Xperia M2] Arceus99:
I dirty flashed RC3 over RC2 and got to say its totally awesome. I had no problems installing it. Thanks developers for such a great ROM.

Also the illumination bar(at the bottom) is also working for notifications!!!!!!!!
[Sony Xperia M2] Billabomb75:
What is illumination led ??
[Sony Xperia M2] harbinfetaii:
It's a line at the bottom of the phone which lights when you get a notification(I guess), and while charging.
[Sony Xperia M2] dnm13:
err, maybe this question is totally noob but

i set it like you said and now it cant play any sound (headphone or speaker)
[Sony Xperia M2] JuniorCaesar:
can you post your mixer_paths ?
[Sony Xperia M2] dnm13:
<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="94"/>
<ctl name="RX2 Digital Volume" value="94"/>
<ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="92"/>
<ctl name="RX4 Digital Volume" value="84"/>

Somehow i cant upload the file from xda labs, posting the entire content will only sore your eyes. If you really need the file i will upload it once i get my hand on my pc. BTW Thx for replying
[Sony Xperia M2] JuniorCaesar:
be sure to leave space at the end of the values, this might be issue.

like this;

<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="95" />

if this doesn't help, make sure to grant right permissions (read/write-read-read)
[Sony Xperia M2] dnm13:
This one saved me. Thanks bud
[Sony Xperia M2] AWESOME1092387456:
Did it work "out-of-the-box" or did you have to make changes to the OS?
[Sony Xperia M2] Arceus99:
yup just the simple flash of RC3. I made no changes to the code or any setting.
[Sony Xperia M2] hooooossamq:
i hope the RC3 is good in battery back like RC2 and much stble.for whom test RC3 is it beeter than RC2?
[Sony Xperia M2] ggravier:
Or you could install 15.0 Alpha 3 with which I have absolutely no problems on my M2...
[Sony Xperia M2] madz13:
It's good on battery backup,
[Sony Xperia M2] hooooossamq:
how i can make the light bar working in the RC2?
[Sony Xperia M2] marco2tiger8:
By updating to RC3. Lol.

Or you can manage to get the required file on rc3 kernel and add it to rc2 kernel rebuild it and get the other file on rc3 system and add it to rc2 system.
[Sony Xperia M2] JuniorCaesar:
he don't need that (i guess)

just extract rc3 (system.new.dat), go to system/lib/hw and pull the lights.eagle.so and boot.img

flash boot.img via fastboot and place the .so file into same direction (system/lib/hw) and you are good to go.

i can't guarantee this because i didn't applied this method on LOS14, but it worked on LOS15
[Sony Xperia M2] hooooossamq:
thank you so much.its working by just flashing the boot.img using cmd fastboot. the. lightxxx.so file file was already there....i like the rc2 more than rc3 because the rc3 hanging some time.rc2 much smother
[Sony Xperia M2] georgedk:
Hi guys, firstly congrats to developer whitch bring lineageos to m2. I have some questions, this rom works on M2 Aqua 2403 also ? And it's stable daily ? Camera is better than stock ?

i dont know if it will work in 2403. the rc2 is much smother than rc3 for daily use.the camera so much better than the stock camera

Yes, TWRP 3.1.0 and bootloader unlocked. I will try again, after redownload rom.

Possible causes of why the installation is failing? apart from an incorrect download :(
[Sony Xperia M2] JuniorCaesar:
maybe recovery didn't mount system before install, maybe caused by .182 firmware (but i don't think so)

you can try mounting system before install
