Sir, I hope that the next version can restore the default size of DPI, and I don't know if it is my charging device problem or other reasons. I can't charge it very slowly when I charge it, but when I switch back to RR, his charging speed will return to normal. , so I don't think it's a problem with my charging device.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Axel_Cj:
I'll try it again thank you for such great ROM

hello everyone i have a z2 xperia with the eXistenZ Marshmallow v5.6.5 rom with the kernel kernel linux 3.4 what is the procedure to install this rom and is compatible with a loocked bootloader thanks for this job
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] AzraelX:
Compared to the other P roms out there, this one works smoothly. but I'm facing some weird problems. whatever the charger I connect, it always shows "charging rapidly" and the device gets heated badly while charging. that thing is not obviously good for the battery. and another thing, the lock screen music visualize cannot be disabled.

EDIT: I somehow managed to turn off music visualize.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] xperia1-2:
Yes, I have the same problem. I have changed the charging device for this, but the charging speed has not improved. I have to change back to RR.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] tenmatei:
Good to see new Z2 dev with good attitude. Keep it up man! :highfive:
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] :
Can confirm that. The ROM works quite well out of the box. However, heating is not only an issue when loading. Even at minimal brightness the CPU and the battery get hot quite fast. Of course, this impacts battery lifetime (I monitored the behavior and adjusted CPU frequency and governor but problem stays).

Anyway, great to see updates for Z2. Hope these problems can be solved in future releases.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] koraymers:
im just wondering is it possible that update kernel to more recent versions or not [MENTION=5258151]drakonizer[/MENTION]
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] omgasm:
same question. preferably the upstream kernel with all those recent built-in ARM related improvements.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] drakonizer:
Definitely not. Even with kernel 3.10 we had a whole lot of trouble and was not worth the effort. Anything beyond that is pretty much impossible.

Maybe the kernel can be upstreamed to the latest 3.4 release (minor version changes) but that would bring little to no changes, so that is not a priority for me.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] omgasm:
even on a years scale? and what if somebody will do it for you - will it be possible to maintain it?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] drakonizer:
You don't understand...it's impossible without Sony going nuts and releasing their stock sources (which they will never do). They had the Open Devices project which used crippled blobs for the camera and open source HALs working with 3.10, but that wasn't useable for anyone.

If you have ever seen devices with major upstreamed kernels it's because:

A) they don't have Sony's DRM BS.

B) they have open source HALs for most of the hardware, especially the camera.

These two things will never change for Sony msm8974 and so we will forever be with 3.4.

Thanks to devs for this magnificient efforts. This rom runs smoothly compairing other beta Pie roms but not stable as AOSP Extended rom, yet. This rom has a battery drain problem and front camera doesn't take any picture and video just like other pie beta roms.

heating issue

i just installed the rom and its super good very smooth and well made only bugs i faced was if i took more than 1 pic it will just freeze how ever battery is so bad and the phone heats up too fast please fix nice rom btw
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] 0LDST4R:
There is no " bad battery thingy " or heating up. It is always the same - it depents with the apps you've installed. Find the deep sleep killers and eliminate them. I flashed GApps Super package - it's normally a battery killer, but not in this Rom, f.i. Google Fit is NOT in my optimized list, and no battery drain for me. Same thing with the overheating problem - i play NFS no Limits, i never had this problem - not on my Z2 or my Z3C, of course always with custom Roms. What are you doing with your phones?

New update is up! Download link is in the first post and changelog in the second.

Sorry for the long hiatus. Ideally I would have wanted to fix the camera issue before releasing a new build, which is what I was trying to do. Unfortunately, I have not made any progress in that regard, which is why I wanted to release a quick update for y'all. This build mostly fixes the broken NFC in the initial build, adds a lot of upstream Carbon features, and improves battery life and performance. Here's a screenshot of my standby with Google sync, Wi-Fi an d BT on throughout.

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] 0LDST4R:
No idea, but also no battery drain here.

I've changed the CPU hotplug from MPDecision to IntelliPlug, with Kernel Adiutor, i guess you know this app. Flashed GApps Super Package, Google Fit NOT optimized, and really no problems with battery drain.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Cygmon0:
So good so far :)

Only one small problem that persists on this ROM and previous as well (7.1 and 8.1)

Is when the phone language is changed to Arabic.

Toast messages gets broken.

All other pie ROMs doesn't have this problem. I guess it's carbon specific..

Those two screenshots. One with carbon pie. And the other with aosp extended..

The broken one it's on carbon pie..

The weird thing is that Not all toast messages are broken. Some of them show up correctly ..

Anyways . what I've got broken so far.

1- developer settings

2- magisk ( when it says approved superuser)

3- WhatsApp plus ( when trying to save a status pic or vid)

And some other apps.

Also enabling RTL from developer settings doesn't solve this problem..

Thanks :)View attachment 4748072

This is happening with all the apps, the connection is falling, the delay to send messages, videos do not load, and this happens from time to time.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] 0LDST4R:
I'm really out of ideas now. My knowledge is limited, i'm learning by doing. My only suggestion would be - reflash latest stock, compare the battery drain, then start from zero, root, recovery, rom... Try your new system with the GApps Super package, replace the included dialer with the Google dialer. I don't really believe that this procedure would help, but it's worth a try. This is my configuration, without the additional not needed languages.

Best, and sorry, i hate it to suggest a standard workaround...

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] :
Thanks for the update!

I think the battery and heating issue is way better than in previous build. Battery life is also quite good.

For those of you who have problems: When you monitor your apps, you will notice that some of them cause strong battery drain and heating and others work quite well. In my case, for example Firefox has bad impact on battery and heating.

Don't really know about that but sometimes the phone is not responding when touching power button to wake up. Screen stays black and only hard reboot solves the issue reliably (sometimes it works 2 mins later).
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Subarashii09:
Camera app freezes even after taking single photo :(

Also, using dark theme, the fonts are not consistent everywhere and somewhere they seem to blend with background, making theme unusable...

Otherwise, it is a very nice rom. I will say it surely if you fix the camera app.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] isaakcu:
Disable the stock camera application. Install another camera application partially solves the problem. also, if you clear the camera application you used from the recently used applications section, the problem is resolved. sorry for bad english

Edit :

Seems to be a workaround, for me it's working. No bug messages after taking multiple photos.

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Hans_Werner:
My Problem is solved. I flashed the rom again.

It seems it is a bug in Google's backup and restore function.

When restore the device from Google cloud (apps, contacts etc.) the battery drain is horrible.

Fresh installation of all apps was the solution.

Thanks for this nice rom. want to say some problems.

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] 0LDST4R:
Wanna say some words to this question now...

It depends of your personal needs. I'm using this ROM since 2 weeks now for daily driver, heavy customized, GApps Super installed, various Magisk modules, about 170 user apps - for the moment i can live with the known bugs which are mentioned many times in this thread. Except for the hotspot bug there are workarounds to handle the ROM while daily use. No random reboots, no lags, no freezes, no fc's so far, great battery live, i earlier posted some screenshots, about 4,5 - 5 hours SOT, deepsleep kicks in very well, games running well, mobile network too, no overheating, GPS working fast, BT in car too, calls and music. A fix for the Google voice bug is provided in an earlier post. Fix for cam is for me - open your photo after taking the picture in your gallery, go back, and you can take the next photo. Fix for no video in WhatsApp is for me watching it in MX Player.

My config in detail :

* CR 7.0 2019/21/04

* GApps Super without additional languages and stock pixel launcher

* removed various system apps like gallery, music,

browser, camera roll, audio fx, photo table, dialer

* flashed sony album/music/foto editor/Xperia keyboard ports as system apps

* CPL ( customized pixel launcher ) as system app

* changed CPU Hotplug from MPDecision to IntelliPlug with Kernel Adiutor - no more playing with kernel settings

* linked a 128 GB extSD as intSD with the Magisk module "fbind"

Finally i'd say yes - it's stable for daily use ( for me )

Magisk modules in detail :

https://xdaforums.com/xperia-z2/dev...pie-beta-sony-xperia-z2-t3909457/post79390706

If you edit your build.prop manually, and you've got Magisk root, don't edit and replace the file in your running system with a root explorer, it will have no effect, because the system is mirrored. Backup your build.prop, do the changes, and replace the file in TWRP file manager. Don't forget to set permissions to 0644.

With a full wipe it should be fine without flashing the last stock FW.

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] okij:
Yes, I experience the same on my Z3c on CarbonROM 6.1. Rebooting to TWRP doesn't work anymore, as well as pressing Volume-Down when the pink LED shows during booting the device.

Only turning the device fully off and then pressing the Power Button and Volume-Down at the same time works now for me to enter TWRP.

[MENTION=3816568]Myself5[/MENTION] & [MENTION=5258151]drakonizer[/MENTION]: Do you have a clue what Magisk 19.1 does differently and maybe also how to fix this again?

[MENTION=8746471]NeoArian[/MENTION]: I also just read your reply here to a post from [MENTION=5873752]subinsg[/MENTION] who has the same problem (I guess also caused by Magisk 19.1!?). You wrote that the /misc partition is responsible for correctly entering TWRP. Could it possible that Magisk 19.1 alters the /misc partition and therefore causes the problems with entering TWRP?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] NeoArian:
Good evening,

The misc partition isn't used to boot into recovery, it is used to store any commands from the Android OS to the recovery. An example for this is OTA, where the updater will place the openrecoveryscript at misc so recovery knows what to do. Same thing goes for factory reset, it reboots into twrp and twrp will execute the factory reset.

Other then this I don't use magisk, I might test it on my z3c to confirm that it breaks reboot to recovery when I find some time.

Edit: you are right, its related to magisk :svetius:

Have a nice Day!

idle battery consumption

I tried the 20190421 build over the weekend, and I was bugged by the battery drain while the device was idle. To be sure, I made the following test: full wipe, install ROM build 20190421, install opengapps micro; boot to ROM, don't copy any data, don't add google account, don't install any apps. Put the device on airplane mode, changed to 100%, unplugged and left if sit overnight.

Battery change went from 100% to 66% in this scenario, and that seemed too much for me. [MENTION=5258151]drakonizer[/MENTION] please take a look when you have the time.

the best pie rom for Z2

I've been 4 days on the last build and i found :

-huge performance different and temperature stability while gaming

PUBG Mobile runs very well with less lag

-camera quality is horrible ... video recording works fine

-hotspot is working

-time and date resets to default when i restart my Z2 ... sometimes they adjust automatically

-battery drain at idle ... even with no apps installed

-equalizer is not working at all even with 3rd party apps

thats all. everything works fine expect for those that i have mentioned

thanks for all the hard work on this rom. and im waiting the next build ?
