info:
this is based on the XZU recovery for locked bootloaders by @Krabappel2548
This thread will stay a dev and discussion thread for further development issues and fixes!
Download link can be found here: XZU recovery for locked bootloaders
THIS IS INTENDED FOR LOCKED BOOTLOADER DEVICES! But works on Unlocked bootloader too
THIS IS STILL IN DEVELOPMENT STAGE!
DO NOT EXPECT IT TO WORK PROBLEM FREE!
requirements:
rooted Xperia Z1
how to enter recovery:
when you see the Sony bootlogo and when device vibrates/leds light up u can use the entry keys to enter the corresponding recovery
VOLUME UP -> CWM
VOLUME DOWN -> TWRP
what works:
BOTH CWM 6.0.3.6 and TWRP 2.6.3.0 work
you can enter both recoveries and flash small files
what doesnt work:
in this particular version of CWM, adb doesnt work; it will be fixed later.. for debugging use TWRP
Shoudl be fixed:
TWRP and CWM both can destroy /cache and /system when trying to format it. Restoring your phone using an FTF is the only option left if that happens. You can however try to not format but use rm -rf instead in TWRP (TIC BOX!!), which will do for now.

For anyone who does not own a Z1 (like me) and wants to search through the init actions.
Look also L2 Error detected! in 1089 Line. Usb don't work right and i think because we can't write in memory stack stack(0xe4859e70 to 0xe4859eb8) for lock bootloader. Problem it's in arch / arm / mach-msm but i don't find where!
As DooMLoRD's OP somehow does not fire the mention system... repeat for function
@Kali- @Bin4ry we need your help guys!
Oh now I got marked. I'll take a look at the weekend I don't have time Today sorry!
But just for me to know, ist that selfcompiled or a copy n paste version with a unpacked -> repacked ramdisk?
Have you checked against my posted recovery in Z Ultra forums? I can remember there was a similar problem on the locked bl recovery, you guys really seem to screw it somehow.
Also can i get a gdrive link to the files? Then I can grab it over my different systems more easy

It was a self-compiled version by @DooMLoRD, with a ramdisk slightly modified to get it to work for the Z1. What did you do to get it to work on the ZU? @krabappel2548 tried and failed there too...
EDIT: Just to be clear: it's not that the recovery does not work, it does, it's the kernel which triggers a reboot after 40 seconds because it seems to be unable to initialize the modem.

the boot hijack scripts, chargemon, are based on the ones for Xperia Z by @[NUT], with the necessary modifications, if any, for Xperia Z1
the ramdisks for the recoveries are using the same CPIO as the ones for unlocked bootloader...
recovery works well on unlocked bootloader with recovery integrated in kernel ramdisk...
will send u link over gtalk
did u post recovery for LOCKED bootloaders for Z Ultra?
Ok i did some first tests!
My own recovery works (see cm boot.img !). But this one does not work when ramdisk-recovery is integrated into your dualboot script!
So it is definetly a problem with the services from the "host" system. The ramdisks which get extracted also work fine when integrated into cm boot.img!
So wild guess here: You try to stop all services from host system but it seems not to work, since you dont really need anything running for recovery, but some of the host services dont want to stop here and waiting for the system to bootup. SOMETHING seems to reboot it then when nothing is happening
Need to see deeper whats happening, its quite a funny problem i think
Regards
I came to the same conclusion, but I had to give up as I had no idea what services could have been responsible
It might be the RIL service as it slingshots a lot of the radio/modem functionality... But I'm really not too sure...

original ramdisk and the files from /system/etc are now in post 3 for anyone without a Z1 to check them.

Did you find anything useful yet?
I've been wandering around in the files again myself, i've checked the qcom modem init already but i rechecked it, it seems that before chargemon is started, it already initialized a lot of the radio/modem hardware... it seems that at least one service is responsible for the communications layer between the kernel and modem, but I have been unable to determine which one... seeing the 40 second timeout before a reboot occurs it probably accounts for the service needing some time to start up.
Since kernel have initiated the modem, is it possible to write a procedure to set smem_get_entry flag. most likely to assign flag one to it.. New to android development..When i program a micro controller..we will be checking a flag in modem to see if it is initiated.. or sometimes.. i assigns a variable or memory address...so instruction will check that location for status rather than checking modem flag...as it takes more cycles...so i think this may be clearing some flags or memory or variable....
I did not had time yet to continue working but boyhood you guys should be correct. I am just thinking of the easiest way to fix it. Give me some more days please

I've had a chat about it with Dees Troy from TWRP about it, he suggested RIL as a possible culprit, or maybe watchdogd...
I don't have a z1 so I'm unable to test it on my own...

For watchdog to reset an unexpected condition should occur.. for that something else have to go wrong...
and not sure- Radio Interface Layer is it not part of baseband?

Ok, I really should contribute to the community somehow So I decided to fix any little problem in my rom i'm currently using and release it, so people like me, that means people who like clean and tidy ROMs with some extra horsepower under the hood and few tweaks that increases usefulness of their device a bit will have their life a little bit easier because I'll try to implement as much awesomeness without unnecessary bloatware to this ROM and learn a bit about modding in the process
And I proudly present you PowerXperia ROM for Xperia S
It's based on official .45 ROM, with following changes:
StatusBar toggles
Percentage battery mod
^ these two were one mod, p3001ee's statusbarmod with quickpanelsettings.
krabappel2548's XperiaSSpeed Kernel V6 with stock bootlogo and "Xperia" background in recovery
serajr's xperia s customizable home launcher
ROM is debloated and some handy apps are included

Known issues & TODO:
- When lockscreen disabled and waking up phone with camera button, blank form appear that is canceled by any action. This is caused by Camera app.
- AROMA installer - honestly, i am aware that apps I use aren't apps that everyone want to use

Good to have another rom... But this is more like a combination of some mods that you have done on your stock rom with krabe's kernel and made it a power rom...
Anyways one new rom for us.. Cheers

exciting stuff!! Btw, is it overclocked by default??
Harsh7689: The point of this ROM is to ease the effort patching it up to others with similar requirements from their device. I've not said that I have done something special, I don't know java and I know very little from bash and other scripting... only thing I've learned up to today is to find a mod, test it and if it works well use it until i find better. This is my little I can do for the community... Maybe I'll learn from this baby-in-sandbox project something that will allow me to do a bit more for community than this... I agree, it's nothing much fancy, but it might help someone, that's why I posted it here.
imrock: It's kernel is krabappel2548's XperiaSSpeed Kernel V6, so yes, it is overclocked by default and can be overclocked up to 1899 MHz, which me personally finds quite hazardous Anyway default overclock is somewhere around 1,7 GHz which is safe value The package also contains Voltage Control free edition, which will allow you to alter those values to your taste

after desperate messing with aroma installer i have another idea how to contribute to community tool that generates aroma scripts
What is the difference between this "ROM"and the other ones like Eratcher and DualCore "ROMS"
It is supposed to be as much stock as possible, while getting some extra functionality, to be honest, i'm not keen using AOSP - themed rom, if i would want to, i'd bought galaxy nexus... i've bought xperia cause i like it's design... by the way, being arrogant and rude is not the best way how to support someone trying to learn something...

i think he(Felimenta97) is asking for the kernel because ladynaamah has the ka kernel with default sony logo.
You may extract zImage file from archive and flash it via fastboot using command
Code:
fastboot flash boot zImage
provided you have connected your device in fastboot mode
geekygrl: I'm aware of that, but what shall i do? Type here guide how to extract it, modify it, repack it and flash it separately? That's not making much sense, would excessively complicate process that is supposed to be simple...

Thanks ~ wait for your good news ~~~
This is a port of PAC 4.2.2 v22.1 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2177236
For further information you should go to that thread and see what the ROM is capable of.
All i have done is change the KERNEL with BPauls kernel from his CM10.1 Rom from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2262795
and also changed the build.prop and updater-script so that it would install on the Xperia Acro S.
All bugs present in the original ROM will most likely also be present now.
Credits go to funky0308, Shingers5 and Vertigo for the ROM and Bpaul for the kernel.
---------------------
Latest Relase (14/05/13) ****Small issue with mounting the normal storage wait till i fix that before installing this version if you downloaded it, if you have already go back to recovery and install my previous version then i will fix and you can install the new one.
Fixed External SD card not mounting
Fixed Rotation Issue
Initial Release (13/05/13)
Download the ROM from Download mirror
GAPPS from http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip
Install Instructions are:
1. Unlock bootloader.
2. Extract and Flash boot.img from hikari_PAC_JB_4.2.2-v22.1.1_Themed-v2.zip (fastboot flash boot boot.img)
3. Go in to recovery:
-- On boot led will be violet for 3 second. During this period press vol+
-- Flash ROM
-- Flash Gapps
-- Wipe data (factory reset)
-- Reboot.
If coming from BPauls CM 10.1 or Official CM10 you can skip step 1 and 2.
If coming from a previous build of mine you can skip the WIPE data part as well unless you get FC i have never had an issue.
Known Bugs
none as of 14/05/13
1)Hi The rotation is wrong, when you turn right the phone turng left and when you put head up the phone head off
2)Dont install the External SD Card (microsd)
You use the ACRO S kernel or S Kernel ?? this is very important

I used the Acro S kernel from BPaul so it should work i will take a look at it tonight might just be a lib file i missed.
When i was using root explorer it did say SDCARD0 and 1 so it might have something to do with that so i will see if the microSD card is being mounted properly, been meaning to buy one so will grab one and test.
Also i will look into the proximity sensor probably the same issue with rotation too.
OK my friend, surely any file is missed about Rotation and SDCARD01 (microsd)
Thanks a lot...and your ROM is GUAUUUUU only thats two bug

Did you wipe data, and cache and Dalvik cache because mine is very smooth, i use 3D launcher and camera loads alot quicker then stock. I dont want to change it much from the one im porting from. However if i do get around to building everything from source i will be sure to limit what is installed by default.
Have a question, If I come from BPaul ROM 4.2.2 if necesary Flash boot.img from hikari_PAC_JB_4.2.2-v22.1.1_Themed-v2.zip ?? or Can used the boot.img from BPAUL ??

You could always message vertigo as he's the official PAC man and tell him what you've done and ask if you can post it in development. As long as it credits the correct people (which u already have) i wouldn't have thought that would be a problem?

Have a questions in your Latest Relase (14/05/13) you was using PACman v22.0.1 - Themed v3 ???... or..... PACman v22.1.1 - Themed v2 ??

Delta OTA updates
Instructions:
Flash CM 11.0 and the gapps below.
Clear /data and /cache if you are coming from another ROM.
Reboot.
Dual boot instructions:
[LINK] DualBootUtilities zip
[LINK] Dual Boot Enabler/Disabler
[LINK] Dual Boot Switcher app
[LINK] Gapps for secondary ROM
NOTE: Before you do anything, download the DualBootUtilities zip and dual-boot enabler/disabler zips to your SD card. They'll really come in handy if something doesn't work right
1. Download the Dual Boot Switcher app and install it.
2. Open the app and set the current kernel as the primary kernel (screenshot)
3. Remove some bloatware with Titanium Backup or convert some system apps to user apps (ChatON, WatchON, S Health, Chrome) with this app Stock TouchWiz + this ROM will not fit on the /system partition
4. Reboot into recovery
5. Flash DualBootEnable.zip
6. Flash a >= 20130908 build of this ROM
7. Flash the dual boot Gapps above
8. Reboot
9. Install the Dual Boot Switcher app again in the secondary ROM
10. Enjoy!
IMPORTANT: Please don't use the recovery's built-in wiping features. Use the zip files in the "helpful zips" instead.
How do I...?
Switch the ROM if something doesn't work properly?
Flash DualBootUtilities.zip. You will get a menu allowing you to switch to the primary or secondary ROM.
Wipe /cache, /data, /system, or dalvik-cache?
Flash DualBootUtilities.zip. You will get a menu that lets to wipe the respective partitions for either the primary or the secondary ROM.
It's important to not use the recovery's built-in wiping functions because they may delete files needed for the secondary ROM.
Update the primary ROM?
Edit META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script so that it does not format /system or /dev/block/mmcblk0p16 (because the 16th partition is /system)
Flash DualBootUtilities.zip before updating the ROM and choose Wipe Primary /system. If the primary ROM is AOSP-based, you will need to reflash Gapps.
Make sure to set the kernel as primary in the dual boot switcher app
Update the secondary ROM (this ROM)?
Just flash the update as usual
Flash a mod or custom kernel for the primary ROM?
Just flash it
If it's a custom kernel, make sure you set it in the dual boot switcher app.
Flash a mod or custom kernel for the secondary ROM?
The kernel will need to be patched. See this post for more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45577913&postcount=1979

How do I...?
Use Foldermount on this ROM?
Go to the development options and disable App2SD: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45547358&postcount=1941
This setting is available on nightlies >= 20130913. Of course, moving apps to the SD card will no longer work.
If you are dual booting, you need to use /raw-data/media/0/... for the source path. See here for more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45560831&postcount=1952

Koush's 4.3 fixes for Superuser were just merged today. Root should be working just fine. Do you have another root app installed (like SuperSU)?

Yeah, that must be specific to jfltexx. I just tried taking about 20 pictures and a few videos and I didn't get any FCs.
By the way, I'm using the CM camera. I didn't try the one from the Google Edition i9505G.

I AM HAPPY TO PRESENT YOU WITH A REAL WORKING X-REALITY ENGINE FOR XPERIA DEVICES..
{This mod is for pre 4.4.2 (any firmware version lower than 14.3.A.0.681) only. As Sony's KITKAT is much more sweeter now. yes they have removed the restriction of "no X-REALITY / BRAVIA ENGINE for unlocked boot-loaders" from KITKAT. ( Kissess Sony.. )
So from now, U will have to flash this mod, only if you are on pre-KITKAT firmwares. And please dont mess up with kitkat firmwares.}
GUYS.
Many of you have unlocked your xperia's bootloaders by now for your custom rom love..(i had it done on second day after purchase of my zx1, and its only a week old now, thanks to TA BACKUP).
One of the sad thing u will ever realize after bootloader unlock will be a non functioning X-Reality/Bravia engine and it is due to the drm protection being lost, though the files are there for its working.
So the question is can it be recovered if we patch the drm check??? the ans is yes!
That's why i promise you this mod will work.
This mod contains files for X-Realty engine BASED ON XZ1 14.2.A.1.136 FIRMWARE and patch files to patch the DRM check... Also you will figure out that this X-Reality engine will have some difference in colour saturation level than what you find in other mods or previous BRAVIA/X-Reality engines. I personally prefer it becoz it does not hurt eyes that much, and have good balance with colour-contrast ratio.
What you will need
1. An xperia device ( checked it on xperia z and z1 ) with stock or stock based rom ( dont know about custom roms or other devices, but it wont hurt you to give a try)
2. Unlocked bootloader ( well, you wont be needing this if u r on locked bootloader, although u can use it in lb too)
3. CWM/TWRP recovery or any recovery you use like phills advanced touch recovery.
4. Patience ( will tell you later, why you need it!)
Steps
1. Reboot into your recovery
2. Backup your system ( not needed exactly, but its always good to keep a backup, in case the sky falls!)
3. Flash the zip.
4. Reboot and enjoy the X-Reality display
Now the patience part....AKA checking if its working
1. Go to SETTINGS>DISPLAY and turn on X-Reality/Bravia engine if it is not turned on
2. Collect some brightly coloured pic from somewhere on web, or from your collection on your pc( recomended to find some HDR pics, having good sunlight/brightness and a verity of colours like red's ,blue's, yellow's, green's etc. and transfer to your phone/sd.
3. open album(Sony album preferred) and locate the pics.(full screen pics on landscape are pretty good to see the effect).
4. If its a high resolution pic, it will take a second or two to load the pic( u will see the pic edges will smooth out when it loads). Give it another second or two to make the X-Reality effect to load.(this time you will see the colours getting more saturated, and the contrast increasing)
5. Thats all.. Enjoy the X-Reality engine on your movies and photos.
I take no credits, as this is not my work, this is the work of Sony Engineers, and the patch files , which i use in this package is obtained from XDA itself, and is the result of hard work of some XDA member ( Sorry i forgot whom e's for mentioning his name, as i got it before long time).
I just took all of them together, from XDA and newest XZ1's firmware, combined and checked if every thing is working. And sharing it with you.
I have analysed the "SwiqiMasterReset.apk" which is used to load the x-reality engine. And i found out this( well its not new,nor what you people have heard of).
If somebody who have a problem with the working of this mod, please add these lines to your build.prop.
ro.service.swiqi2.supported=true
persist.service.swiqi2.enable=1
ro.service.swiqi3.supported=true
persist.service.swiqi3.enable=1
Thats really needed for the working of bravia or x-reality. These lines are normally found in stock or stock based roms unless your rom dev have removed it.
You may hit the THANKS button for me if you like it.
Hi!
Would definitely check this out!
Anyone confirm that to work ?
Trying right now!
Thx Bruh!
-Edit!
Flashed it, but i don`t really recognize any difference, it loads its sharpness of the picture but i cant see any colours or contrast improvements or so after next couple sec, Either i`m to blind to see that, it loads to fast or it doesnt work for me ^^ Anyway Thanx
works also Bionz engine on z1?
Very nice !
Will this also work on Xperia Z Ultra ?
Nice!! how about bionz??
People... Test it and then ask...
Wysłane z mojego C6903 przy użyciu Tapatalka
About xreality.. It works 100% sure. By the way bionz is a chip, which is sony's custom image processor chip, they use it in many cameras. And i dont think its a piece of software unlike xreality or bravia engine. Yap both of them are just softwares. And nothing else.
So if u loose bionz, u probably dont have camera working. And there are rumours like it wont work if u unlock bootloader ( yap its true if u havent updated zx1 to 4.3 before unlocking bootloader, sony themselves cleared it in there bootloader unlock Code request page).
If some doesnt see any xreality enhancement, sorry but i cant help u in seeing it. No offence, but some already told that they cant even notice the diff in turning it on and off in sony offical firmware,with locked boot!!!! Lol what can i do to make them belive!

Yap i hope it will work on ultra too.. Though the files are from z1. U can always give a try. Nothing will hurt

Yeah but people still said function of bionz will be gone after unlocking bootloader on android 4.3
I think sony prevent the camera from breaking by enable image process by regular cpu, like any other xperia devices
is it??
Looks like this is for deodex ROM, am I right?
Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk
working well on Z Ultra
Thanks mate
so wait, this is a fix for all of us who unlocked bootloader but didnt do a TA backup (so we lost our DRM keys forever) ?
even if i dont have TA backup, I can get x-reality to work again? if so, that is cool
anyway to do this for camera too? my camera quality has gone to s*hit ever since i unlocked bootloader (or maybe its because i use iHackers 2.1 rom, dont know)

does it? thats one new knowledge for me, i have unlocked bootloader, after updating 4.3. Does any one confirm it yet? well sony haven't said that, ..... oh wait .. i will relock my boot now with TA(and post any result). I noticed a colour change in superior auto mode when under lowlight condition. on 4.2, it seems much better, but on 4.3 it seems like having a purple tint in same mode. let me check.

the xreality will work, and about the drm, i dont think so, coz the patch is probably from an old model sony phone. and may be the keys will be different, but bro.. seriously i cant check.. coz i have a working camera.. i unlocked after update!!!. also about your camera.. well pls ask it in your rom's thread. or may be some day we XDA'ns will find a solution for those who lost the cam.
I can make odexed version from yours tho. Anyway, big thanks for your work!

I tried to flash NamelessRom over wulsic's cm11 and it didn't boot.. So you need to make full wipes... Regarding whatsapp audio, i have this bug also, since is builded with same device three but i'm going to help Winston to fix the source and my alpha 0.2 and his 0.6 build will come faster and also less buggy.. Cheers!

no release for the duos version?
Not yet since i don't have the device or sourcecode.. Maybe sometime in the future.. You can try @wulsic commands to enable dualsim from cm11 thread but since in his rom doesn't work, it's a pretty small chance to work in NamelessRom.. For duos i think we need to make a separate device tree..

Build 0.2 is compiling, hopefully with some fixes about root acces and some more optimisations...
I`m intrigued about ram usage - 230mb free after clean install, ~170mb free after installing some usual apps...
Meanwhile:
didn`t knew about sdcard because i don`t have any
video recording worked for me, only front cam recording FC
root missing has been mentioned..
Build 0.3, somewhere this week it will contain fix for framebuffer (still need to merge some things from @wulsic`s patches) and maybe other fixes... I`ll mention them when i will know what i fixed
LE: Build 0.2 is up - still having su issue... I need to dive into it...
I've got a work around for the su fix, use the kernel of wulsic's cm11 build 0.5

wow, thx for the hard work, this rom is amazing, is there a way to install apps into the sd card with your rom?¿
Excellent work. Awesome rom for galaxy fame. Very much faster than stock and also more stable than the wulsic's CM11 0.5 build. Needs a little bit more work. I found following bugs:
Some apps force close.
Calculator does not work.
Laggy boot animation.
At Last Thanks for your great effort for Galaxy Fame and good luck for next builds.

The bootanimation problem is because of the large resolution.. I will probably change it to smaller in the next build..
System/User apps are FC because of some java errors and other..
Indeed is faster than cm11 probably because of the optimisations added by me in the build script.
I`ll try to improve and work further for this rom but i don`t have much time between work and home...

I`m 100% sure he had cwm 6.0.4.6 so even he changes updater script, it won`t be able to flash it..
I didn`t removed those lines because when you flash 4.4.4 in (my) old recovery it flashes and gives error when setting metadata, and after the device will bootloop.. If the flash is interrupted at start because of the device name, the system is untouched and it can return to the previous state/rom..
It's perfect! But I have a problem... The bluetooth not working altogether. I tried to connect my headphones and not let me, appears to me "Could not connect to Nokia BH-503 because the password or PIN is incorrect".
It can be? Obviously, the headphones do not have a password or PIN.
Please help me!
