4K and Roms - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I have some questions about Z1:
Did anyone installed 4k and Timeshift and did it work?
What's the best ROM? Now should I install custom rom or no? And how to install rom? Via Flashtools?
I installed a custom theme, but it just changed the main screen wallpaper and nothing else. It's rooted (757). Someone told me to choose the default theme and reboot phone, then again choose custom theme. Is that true?
It has a bit delay when I press the power button to unlock the phone. It's about 4-5 seconds more than usual. It made after I flash it to Kitkat 4.4.2. I don't know why, but I have this issue. How to solve it?
Thanks all

Hi...
For that 4K hysteria - belive me, that's nothing special.
Device sometimes (Z2) FC because overheating (after all, Z2 and Z1 have snapdragon 800- 801 is just a fancy new number, it's same cpu just overclocked to 2.3).
One min video takes 500MB of space and I rarely us it...
Timeshift is awesome and it's work great if I can remember well..
Questions like what's the best ROM aren't allowed on XDA so I'll skip that..
Try few of them and you'll find what's best for you.
For custom themes you have to patch services.jar - si, you have to install superuser mod or use Xposed module called "Xperia Xposed" by serajr - that module will automatically patch services.jar (will disable signature check)
No, you don't have to apply stock then custom, that's good advice for CM ROMs and themes in that ROMs.
If you have superuser, deodexed ROM and rooted device (of course) you'll be able to see custom themes.
Don't know about that "lag" but you could check RAM consumption, maybe there's a solution.
Or try to go to recovery and wipe cache and dalvik (don't rush there, many guys reported they did full wipe after trying only cache wipe)

Thanks. When I was about to install Deodex Rom, so after installation, a post said that I should clear dalvik-cache, and so I did it.
For this part "For custom themes you have to patch services.jar - si, you have to install superuser mod or use Xposed module called "Xperia Xposed" by serajr - that module will automatically patch services.jar (will disable signature check)" I did not got anything, because I'm not pro in android phones. Z1 is my first smart and android phone.
And so, I don't know how to patch services.jar-si
It's rooted of course, and I have SuperSU, lucky patcher, and recently installed moded Google Play.
Is that installed? How should I install it? Or how should I get it?
And about Timishift, it's and amazing addon for camera, just I wanna it. I know that some users reported Sony about overheating of 4k in Z2. My phone itself records 2K, and sometimes I face low memory.
That's the thread:

Sorry again. I'm a beginner and my English is not well enough to understand properly these threads and posts.
I read your thread, but I have some questions:
What's NUT 534 firmware? I flashed my phone to 757 via flashtools. Should I flash it again?
I unlocked my BU and rooted it, and so I have CWM or CMW (I don't know which one is correct). And again I should download and install Dual Recovery?
And should I download both Xposed Module and Serajr Xperia Module?
So, now because I have recovery mode, it means there isn't need to flash again?
Now my brain is overheated!
Please help me

Just install xposed framework and serjar module, then the 4k mod
If you have unlocked the boot and have recovery you are all ready to just install the 4k mod by flashing it in recovery then clearing the data in settings/apps for the named apps
just like it says in the OP of the 4k thread

I installed xposed and serjar, then installed 4k mod in recovery, but the clear data of those two apps were not available, because they didn't have any data.
But when I opened the camera and chose timeshift, it said Camera Not Available

True.
Or just install Xposed framework and you can add the item inside the menu using Gravitybox or Advanced Power Menu.

I'm sure that Xposed works on V without any issue (in mods section there are people with V that use it).
Actually I don't know in specific if APM could give problem, but I can only say that on my T it works as a charm....
The good thing of Xposed framework is that it doesn't change and doesn't touch the system in any way, because it works on it: if something doesn't work properly and you get bootloop, you can just go into recovery and disinstall the framework using the zip generated automatically in your internal memory when you install Xposed for the first time.

I have yet to see a phone on which Xposed doesn't work or has bricked the device. If all you want is that feature, install Advanced Power Menu, no need to use GravityBox which does way more than what you want.

Totally agree.
APM is specific for power menu.
Gravitybox is a huge tool to change almost everything, I love it... but if you want only to change the power menu, APM is enough
It did blow my 4.3 when it just came out, but I am sure this is fixed and 4.3 fully adopted.
I admitt it is extremely convenient with Xposed, and having with Gravitybox is so attractive for being offered so much choices right on the plate. Albeit I think it slows the system. And a major issue for me, it does not work on odexed ROMs.
I pity the culture of installing real apk's has somewhat diminished through using these modules.

Interesting, do you know of any real standalone APKs that offer functions that could replace what's done with Xposed? I'm asking because, why use Xposed when there might be real APKs that do the trick, say hooking into calls made be SystemUI to change things on the fly...
just wana say thanks and Declaration that they work perfect on Sony V Rom 4.3 build .210 rooted

Stock messaging app definitely isn't there. Why bother removing it?
Edit: Yikes a lot of the UI hacks for xposed are likely going to need updating. 314 breaks the hidden apps slide out menu (not the fault of this rom developer, but I'm sure it could be important for some other users planing to upgrade from 402).

Thanks for the feedback. It was not removed. When I tested the rom, I noticed the missing stock messaging app and reported it to dev. However, when you look into the rom's system\priv-app, the conversation.apk is there so it had us both stumped as to why it is not getting flashed.
Hopefully, we'll get the fix from the dev soon.
Thanks again for reporting.

It seems to work great otherwise. I just rolled back to my backup of .402 because I got used to how my UI was setup using GEM and Xperia Xposed modules. Once they get updated (GEM in particular) I'm sure I'll be back.

I see your point and I myself use these modules. However, different people have different preferences. Therefore, some devs refrain from adding mods like Xposed in the rom as users can add themselves after flashing the rom. I know that @dipesh1502 has plans to provide add ons (themes, sound mods etc.) in Aroma in Themes and Apps section. So, I'm sure he can consider your request.

Yes, you have to flash recovery after every 314 rom flash otherwise you'll end up with no recovery and this is speaking from personal experience lol.

I will post it asap when i get the solution..apology for the inconvinience
If the apk is still in the folder, cant you just manually install the App?
BTW, IMHO Xposed should be preinstalled.
Oh, and it would be awesome to link Nut's thread in the op when you say "install recovery" it's a hassle to search the thread on the phone
Tried installing the app from system\priv-app folder but it wouldn't have it.
anyone got an extracted apk that works ?

Just flash the ROM after wiping data, cache, dalvik cache..
#Borias yes you can flash it, just make a clean install,wipe everything through recovery and follow these steps... 1-flash the rom 2- flash directly on cwm any 283 kernel of your choice (I prefer Hodor kernel) 3- Reboot system and let it settle.. 4- Reboot into recovery and flash superuser fix 5- Reboot system and enjoy it.

Yes you can. You don't need to flash stock kernel because PureXZ ultra has a kernel image inside the zip. So no special steps are needed.

I installed XZDual recovery and it rebooted me to Teamwin recovery, is that wrong? I was on rooted 4.4.4

Yes, u did nothing wrong.. Just select reboot and press volume up when it vibrates during Sony logo occurance.. And u will get Philz touch.. Flash the ROM and make sure u wipe the data,cache and dalvik cache before installing the ROM..

saw your post that you said you will be rebasing the rom.
will you be able to include:
- x-reality/super vivid options like how it was on your current v3?
- and whatever you're doing that makes the camera start up faster and lockscreen glitter nicer!
also i noticed that sometimes while trying to unlock my screen i have a black wallpaper for a few seconds instead.
not sure if thats a bug, but its nothing major as it doesnt always happen.
(note: it happens on the default wallpaper as well)
thank you!

All the stuff from V1 and V2 will be there along with some improvements.. Plus that lockscreen black image is a bug from Stock.. I'll try fixing it anyways..

{{GUIDE}}DEBUGGING Xposed Installation

Here you are..many of you had issues installing XPOSED on your LOLLIPOP device..Let me give you a short guide on the installation process
This guide is not made by me
All credits goes to @faslane
Thank him for this
Thanku @rovo89 for making Xposed work on ART
Thanku all devs and members who participated on the DISCUSSION thread who helps us solve the issues on our devices
I am starting the thread because many of you have issues in installing and enabling the framework..and its tiresome to search for the solution on the DISCUSSION thread
So let's start
NB:Make a Nandroid Backup before making changes
Don't blame me for broken devices
Download both the apk and the Zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=58828974
1) Install the APK
2) Install SELinuxModeChanger from Play Store. Link:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mrbimc.selinux&hl=en
3) Start SELinuxModeChanger and switch to permissive.
4) Flash the ZIP through recovery (TWRP recommended)
5) Start the XPOSED UI and choose soft reboot option.((It might show that Xposed is not active but it works anyway))
6.Download any working module and test
This works on most of the devices and give it a try..This might solve your issue for good
NB:For Nexus 5 and some other devices you may need to have a soft reboot after every boot/reboot for the XPOSED to work properly
I've also posted it several times in its respective thread. So people WOULD search. Its the least they can do since I took the time to write it and helped a few hundred people at least.

Lots of people aren't aware that xposed might not read selinux as permissive because of the kernel settings /bootsequence
Perhaps add something like this:
7. Most likely you'll have to repeat Nr 5 every time you boot/reboot your device to keep xposed working.
Or make a note on Nr 5:
To get xposed to work: a soft reboot needs to be done after every boot/reboot in order for xposed to read selinux as permissive.
Hello, this thread is the most helpful (on the official I don't understand for be honest)
But what can I have to do with the second files in the op (XposedBridgeApi-20150213.jar) for the apk and the zip I know what I have to do but with this last....
Thanks

You won't need the file((XposedBridgeApi-20150213.jar)).It is for MODULE builders.
You have nothing to do with that file unless you're a dev and is planning to work on that :thumbup:
Don't type in thanks..for that you have a thanks button :thumbup:

You should do a soft reboot after every hard reboot for the framework to work
Tapped from my furious ZR
Yea, i must do soft reboot after every normal reboot. Is there a way to don't this? ;/

Is this not compatible with Moto X (ghost)? After flashing file and installing .apk, Installer shows app_process active -- andn XposedBridge.jar active 61. Any advice? Thanks.

Still says Xposed not active. What's throwing me is 'app_process active --' as in 0 or null. All the screen shots I've seen show something like 20. SE Linus mode is set to Permissive.

20??
Then probably you have the wrong version installed..
The XposedBridgeApi should show 61.

custom ROM Z3 plus / Z3 ?

I purchased the Z3 plus, i'd like to install a custom ROM, and i wanted to ask you if all the Z3 custom ROM's are working with Z3 plus.
Thank you , in advance

take a look at the hardware specs:
http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_z3-6539.php
http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_z3+-6878.php
and I guess you can tell by those that we're talking about two entirely different phones
the Z3+/Z4 is pretty close to the Z5,
so the chances are higher that Z5 custom ROMs would work (and vice versa),
but I wouldn't try unless it's explicitly mentioned
I'm a bit confused
Could you help me, please ? I just want to install a custom ROM for Xperia Z3 plus.
Which one should i choice ?

I'll post a link to one later, but your best way to get the feeling of using a custom ROM is to install xposed framework. It is hard to make custom ROMs on this phone, that's why you can't find any...
But here is what you can do:
Install @Trilliard's custom ROM here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z4/development/rom-superslim-stock224v1-0-t3413919
And read his post carefully, there is also kernels in there that you can use with his ROM.
Install SU and xposed , then you can install Gravity or layers, or other modules for your phone, to make it look and feel like a custom ROM.
Good luck!

I wish i could customise the status bar and navigation bar ( clock, battery, softkey buttons, etc ) with the stock ROM, it wouldn't bother me at all.
But rooting the phone would be great, because some apps require root.

And i wish i could modify the navbar ( hight, etc )

King root does not work for this phone, if it would only be that easy ?
Since you have an unlocked bootloader your next step is to flash a custom kernel which has TWRP installed, and the third step is to install SuperSU 1.76 from TWRP

You need to use "fastboot" for this.
Do you have a dual sim or single sim?
These are for single sim!
Here is the one for single sim .253 firmwar: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z4/general/ftf-sony-firmware-32-2-0-253-t3417275
