going back to lolipop - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i deiced to go back to lollipop since in marshmallow i can't writ to SD card and can't record voice call tried a lot of application but no use and i can't find a way around to do that
so what is the best Rom for lollipop that i can use

Personally I'd recommend stock LP with mods like Xposed, LSpeed... That or Existence LP. Personally I'd say stock cus there are usually issues with the custom builds for me. Or deodexed stock with some small mods attached which is floating around dev section.. try some out... EDIT scratch LSpeed unless your willing to spend a lot of reboots trying to find the right settings. I recommend downloading Kernel Auditor and reducing zram to 0 and swapiness to 0. On a 3gb ram phone we shouldn't need such things and I find it causes a lot of micro lags for me.

Even I was facing problems with MM, so went back to LP.
I'm running Google Style v3 ROM. It's light weight and super stable (can be further slimmed down to around 400MB)!
Throw in Xposed modules like: N-ify, GravityBox, Lolistat, LPThemer for better usage/looks. I've installed Pexocam as well.

where can i download it

I'm so tired of Marshmallow. There are a lot of mods that will not work on 6.0.1; so my D6503 will stay indefinitely in 5.1.1. Build 264 is great.

*the perfect rom*

After trying every rom on earth I think the perfect rom for me would be an officially stock rom (debloated) with an overclocked kernel (and more) and the T-mobile theme engine. I understand that as these stock roms become more complex it takes longer to make the custom roms bug free. It would be great if a group out there start making roms with just a custom kernel and theme engine added. You can call the rom T.E.K. Rom short for Theme Engine Kernel Rom. Can somebody do it. Also can someone add the T-Mobile theme engine to the SnowJB rom, I would much appreciated it?

Sorry, due to multiple XDA threads for the subject. I mistakenly asked on different(wrong) thread but I meant to ask here because the title says perfect rom. I may get same or different answer depending on who is looking at. Wouldn't mind suggestion from CM11 users; even not stock but if current nightly very stable running on all cylinder.

I like 1) official cm11 nightlies (updated a lot) 2) slimkat (it was smooth) 3) PSX (good speed) If i had to choose one it would be official cm11 nightly and use the neighborhood kernel.

[Idea] Cm12 theme engine for stock

A lot of people don't have custom ROMs (like me). Whether it's because there's bugs, or there is no custom ROM...
With previous versions of Android, we were able to use cm the themes on a stock/near stock android device with Xposed.
The problem is that as of now, Xposed isn't compatible with Lollipop.
Now, being that Cm engine has been ported to a lot of other ROMs, and in the past cm themes were able to be used with Xposed when they didn't come natively in a ROM; so it probably won't be hard to port it now.
I guess it should be able to be done by either:
1. Putting all the relevant files in the system partition...
2. If that won't work, maybe a flashable zip will.
Either way it will need root.
Now; the main problem is that I'm not a developer, and I have no idea what I'm doing. So if someone can work on this, it will be very much appreciated.
Edit: I just found this: http://nexus5.wonderhowto.com/how-t...s-5-with-darker-material-design-look-0158907/
I'm not sure if it works on other devices, like gpe (which is what I'm using), but I anyway don't like it. But at least there is one alternative, albeit not a practical one.

If by Xposed u mean the X-Theme engine module, it,s nowhere near the capabilities of cm theme engine and no it doesn't use ported cm themes.

L Speed

I installed the app L speed here. Seems pretty decent. I installed the L_SPEED_V2.5_HYPER_OPTIMIZER_TEST6_arm.zip. It automatically enables init.d support for our device. Pretty sweet. Easy to use. Just flash it with FlashFire.
any non-placebo noticeable improvement my friend?
So far, all I've noticed is having more free RAM and increased touchscreen sensitivity. I like being able to set a cron to drop caches every hour. It's something I have set on all my linux machines and servers. Always wanted to do it on my phone, and this app lets you.
Does flashfire take 20 min again? Like with xposed, just installed this now but still on black screen

I think it just depends on your variant. Sprint seems to flash things the fastest h812 the slowest. Its normal tho.

Why would you need a mod called "l speed" on a phone running "L"?

Yep you are right. After additional testing, it's not worth it. I'll stick with manually making small build.prop changes.

Anyone who has flashed this, have you perceived a decrease in battery life?

Differences between the BluSpark kernel and the Boeffla kernel?

It wouldn't be wise to differentiate between these 2 kernels. Both of the developers gave their best in their respective kernels. But there definitely are some differences. What are they? And which one will be giving a better battery life?

Have not tested both yet as i just got the opx. But regarding battery life it will depend on the config u set..

I am currently using AICP with BluSpark. Seems good, but I am not really satisfied with the battery life I used to have without the Xposed framework. Anyway, now it is running smooth but I can't use apps like Snapchat which requires your phone NOT to be rooted
Both kernels are very smooth and good . Blu spark is more oriented towards better battery life. Boeffla is more performance oriented while keeping it close to stock. If you are more to tweaking kernel setting, Boeffla will be good choice as it lets you customize almost everything. But you must know what you are doing.
There is no comparison between two, try both of them and see which one suits you better.
Blu.spark is for a smooth system and better battery.
Boeffla can overclock and supports profiles. Battery is also really good (I'm on 1h SOT and still have 87% left)
Thanks for everyone's input think I have an idea wich kernel I'm gonna go with.

Get the appropriate unistaller zip from here.
Flash it, wipe cache & dalvik, reboot, login to SC, once logged in, reboot back to recovery and flash xposed framework zip again, wipe cache & dalvik, reboot.
Everything should be fine.
Remember, if you log out from SC , you'll have to do all this again.

It says that there is an error and then shows a link. When I go to the site, there some reasons of why it could be happening is happening. One of them was that if your device is rooted the app wouldn't work

Scrolling friction

Does anyone know how to change scrolling friction? I mean the time it takes to come to a stop when scrolling. Some Roms have that tweaked (like the one I'm using now, aicp). There was an Xposed mod (xuimod) that did that, but it does not work on marshmallow
As of now don't know any tweak, just maybe wait for xposed to roll the marshmallow support.
