4.4 Firmware feelings/discussion - Xperia Z1 General

My impressions on 4.4 update:
Camera gets pictures faster after getting proper focus compared to 4.3
UI seems a bit smoother - it just feels smoother
Webpages get loaded faster
Data transfer between pc and phone over Wi-Fi without any external apps seems to be a good idea
Nothing new in camera apps. I got terribly disappointed.
We've got the new video editor that has the slow down the video option. That looks like they didn't remove that function from the Z1 or maybe Timeshift Video is coming for us. I'm sure that .681 FW is going to be updated soon as creative app is laggy just like on ported version. Same thing for showing camera apps (change mode from SA to anything else)
Camera apps can be rearranged by tap and hold.
I can't tell about any REAL new features. We've got wifi data transfer and printing. So far I can't see any other features.
Statusbar can't be swiped to change from notifications to toggles. You have to press the toggles button to change to those. It's not really a big thing, but I got really annoyed by that in 10 minutes of 4.4 on Z1.
Camera launches faster.
Summary:
I'm kind of dissapointed by the update. I hoped to get more out of it.
I'll give it a try for a few days though. We'll see if I'd really benefit from the update. (TBH I'm too lazy to do rerooting, restoring backup etc. and I'm a bit curious if there's anyting new here.
Please drop all your opinions/feelings about 4.4 update below.
PS. If you think that this thread is useless - let me know. I'll tell the moderators to delete it.

I tried to get kk without wiping data and cache, but I just ended up in bootloop. Maybe that's because I should have wiped cache. Doesn't matter - I made a backup with TWRP.

Xperia connectivity. It's for windows 7+. Z1 basically shows up just like you would have connected it via USB cable in MTP mode. Haven't tested it any further though.

Lost + button to add more themes.
But big question is...
Anyone could pls explain how localization now works on 4.4.2?
In 4.3 I could have localization thru 3g on and gps off, then I'd turn gos on with a switch when using maps on nav app, and ogff again when finished.
Now all I have is a switch that enables/disables localization and an option with 3 way of working: 1. gps + 3g + wifi, 2. Gps + wifi or 3. gps only.
I am lost... If I choose option 1 than is my gps always on sucking battery? If I choose 2 how can I easily enable gps when in nav app? And if I choose 3 how can I still have google localize me thru wifi when localization is off?
This is so stupid, they should have kept 3g and gps localization separate...

Take pictures with Sensor Proximity...

Hi friend, we all know that our Z haven't camera key...
So I thinking to use sensor Proximity to take pictures and that's help's to take underwater picture.
This is theory and I don't know how much real it is... Because. I'm not developer and it's just idea
Waiting to see your opinions and how much realistic.

yes i know this ways i just share my idea..
I don't know if proximity sensor is immune to water, though.
I like the idea, is the only thing I miss from my last phone.
'Wave to snap' sounds good, you'd have to get the sensitivity just right though.
Perhaps ask the creator of cybershot mod. He'd be the best person, who might know what to do.

It is good idea. And I have read this thread and decided to try it out. So I just created simple test app with that function, tried it in water and it works. So app now is very unstable, laggy, because I just spent 30 mins on creating it. If anyone want to try, here is the .apk file. If you are interested in this app, you can suggest functions, design and I'll work on it.
UPDATE: Little bugfix + signed

Thanks. I think that we also need zoom function and toggles for flash/focus/white balance and resolution selection. But it will be added in future, if app will be popular. Also may be front camera function.

It works under sea perfectly. We can take pictures under water without touching and moding keys! Now we need some settings.
I have the current version from the play store and can't even start the app. It immediately force closes.
Is there anything I can do about this other than wait for a newer version?
I'm on 4.2.2 latest firmware with root and locked bootloader.

Glad someone else thought of this, I had been thinking about this for a long time, and previous phones I had used utilised the proximity sensor to control the music, e.g skip forward and back and pause your music, and various other things

Thank you @AGGevorgyan to give this idea the way to coming up
i confirm that working like magic And certainly under water !!
so if you can add some functions on it to work like real hardware camera key !!!
Hold = focus
Hold then raise = take picture
Hold in Album = return to camera not useful because when you take picture you need to satay in camera
If you like this name to app :Aqua Z just inspiration
you can make thread in Xperia Z Themes and Apps
That's why I love XDA!!! You guys kick ass! For those who still worries about official rom, why worry??? You got XDA!

There is some floating bugs causing force close. One of them is related to waking up after sleep when app is running but I don't think, that you talking about that one. So i fixed one bug and hope, that it fixes your case, when you can not start app at all. Please try version 0.0.3 and tell me how it works.

I don't think that we need this, because I using "CONTINUOUS auto focus" mode during preview, so it focusing every moment until you tap to proximity sensor, after tapping IF it is not focused yet, it focusing and taking picture and IF already focused, then taking picture immediately. So focus on hold will not have effect, because it already tries to focus.

Good suggestion. But I think, that name must be self-descriptive, I mean user must understand what about is this app. But Aqua Z is also not bad. I have few ideas about name, so we can create poll
Aqua Z, Z Proximity Sensor, Z Underwater Camera, Xperia Z Water Photo Camera... You can add more variants.

I have uploaded 0.0.3 bugfixed version to google play, it will be available in ~30 mins. You can wait or download attached .apk

14.2.A.1.136 changes, bugs and experience with the new build.

Upgraded using Sony PCC yesterday, and must say that I like the new build very good. My phone is totally stock, unrooted, non branded version.
Overall the speed of the phone is a lot better. Especially in Hangouts and the launcher. No more waiting for two seconds after pressing the "home" button for icons to show.
Also battery is drastically better for me. Two hours screen time, an hour of talking, everything on sync as normal and still 70 % battery after 12 hours... Pretty impressive.
Still have black screen in Chrome on multitask, though. Annoying
Anyone else have experiences or bugs to share? I will try to sum it all up in this first post, making it easier to get an overview. I will mark the info I have been able to confirm with green color.

[DISCUSSION] Xperia Z 4.4.2 Bugs and Errors..

Hey guys, since 4.4.2 has arrived.. I think its fair to create a thread where all of us can report whatever bugs exist in 10.5.A.0.230.. So that Sony can see this and fix them.. Or it might help our devs..
EDIT:
Bugs i found,
1. Wifi gets disabled by itself, a simple reboot solves it though.
2. Small stuttering on the notification bar.
3. RAM leak exists but gets fixed after a reboot(Google's 4.4.2 bug and its fixed in 4.4.3).
4. GPU drivers arent as good as in 4.3..
5. Over time, the fw becomes unstable'ish and shows some lags and apps take time to open.
6. Sometimes calls won't reach the other side and when it does, the caller(us) wont be able to hear anything from the other side.. This happens a lot like once in every 2-3 days..
7. Sometimes after video recording, there is no sound in the video.. Its MUTE..
7. All 4.4.2 Google's bugs..
If u have any other to add, mention me and i'll add em..
Fixes:
Most of the bugs are solved automatically after a simple reboot, if u face lags do wipe cache and dalvik cache and u will see the difference..
Google Play Services battery drain bug can be solved by disabling the Location service.

It seems to be normal that 4.4 is a bit laggy, try out the following: "Settings--> Developer Options --> Force-GPU Rendering", after rebooting it should be a bit better :good:

Yeah its really annoying for kitkat to have a huge drain off battery
By the way, does anyone already tried this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix
Im still on 4.3 but confirmed info from my friend:
Camera app slower start, typical is 7sec but max was 14-17sec, and overall laggy camera menu.
Stock keyboard slower start, and laggy text select option.
Overall speed of menu is worst.
No audio notification via bluetooth
Battery "sucker" system apps.
4.4 stupid SD card limitation(but its google stupid idea)
Worst performance with GTA: SA
PS enabling Force-GPU Rendering or {omg} 4x MSAA is worst thing that you can do, because it make older apps lag or even FC.

Same performance in games (Real Racing 3), slightly better battery usage, almost same RAM usage, no lag in notification bar/area, for now superstable and smooth.
Saw someone posted that there's no the letter " L " to tap while pressing the 4.4.2 3 times,it just turns black screen,and few more press to reach the Android KitKat logo.
Looks like .227 and .230 is the same,Sony devs didn't fix anything.

It was expected,seems like they didn't put much effort into this,just to give us "something".I knew it they are not delaying the release just to perfect the firmware,but oh well,going back to my favorite AOSP.It was the same case back then,when they released 4.3 journalists version,then they gave us the very same firmware as official,despite the bugs that everyone was reporting.We got what we deserve I guess.

Also that I will stop regularly updating the port at October 20th, having to allocate much of my time to academic work. Security updates and minor bugfixes (as in not requiring massive porting) will continue as usual, however. Feel free to make ssuggestions!
(Note: I don't know how to patchrom so I can't do the Flyme camera app porting, or anything but the easiest features requiring porting of closed-source components, sorry about that but I'm primarily a Web/Android developer and as such don't have much time to learn about smali and the likes.)
don't know what to say ,.. but thanks for you awesome work is it's source on github? maybe we find someone who can do this

https://github.com/xen0n/android_device_meizu_arale/issues/7 Proximity sensor is fixed, the solution is beyond my wildest imagination... Having looked at pile after pile of smali code and kernel sources to no avail a simple echo gets it.
Next release scheduled in ~3 days, stay tuned.
Xenon, can you fix notificarion volume level? All notifications are too loud. I try to fix it by myself, but i didnt find config in /system/etc
Thanks xxxxen0n! i'm waiting for the next release (for proximity sensor fix) then i'm going to install this rom
finally an unlocked bootloader and CM12.1 for meizu mx4. i tought that wasn't possible, but here it is!
Thanks again for your work!
I've tried to edit manually ps_data... XD acces denied even with kali linux adb root and recovery wtf??!!! XDDDD

Working great for me, except mobile data. Battery life is awesome, smooth animations, all sensors are ok, only data connection and would be perfect. Thanks for this rom
I'm not sure is it concern to this ROM, but I have strange issue.
Paired Sony SmartBand Talk SWR30 with Meizu and battery of band drying within one day. When switch bluetooth on the phone off, then drying stops. Previously I have used the same band with Sony Xperia Z3 and battery lasts 4-5 days.
I can't imagine what wrong with Meizu and CM12. Factory reset of the band did not help. Bluetooth stack incompatibility? Wakelock detector shows big activity of com.android.bluetooth process.

I have the same device and test it on CM12.1 No problem! 5-10 percent by day in paired mode. Do you use aditional widgets for SWR30 like Clocki?

No, currently only default settings - default digital clock (with date) and activity monitor are in the use.
After full reinstall yesterday and freezing Lifelog, today battery is much better - from 7am to the 5pm battery have 80% juice remaining, but it still worse that was with Z3.
Try to wipe dalvik/art cache via philz

@xxxenOn could wake the screen gestures, double tab and gesture upward and could import slow motion mode and manual camera?

For camera you could try these ports

Witch One ROM is the best?

I tested a lot of custom roms, and I still don't know witch one can be the best. I prefer ROM with very good battery time(I don't play in any games), I use xposed with a lot modules.
Now I have installed Hydrogen Os with boeffla kernel+ extreme battery profile+xposed. I am very happy, 3 days on battery but low performance
Please write something about yours roms

FAQs
Why aren't my notifications, umm notifying me?
In an effort to stop your annoying ringtone going off every two seconds for "Free coins, today only!" and "You've won a free iPad" the H2OS team have a "feature" called priority notifications.
This makes the user have to manually select on a per app basis which apps are allowed to notify/alert the user of a notification and these become "priority notifications" whereas non-priority are still notifications but they just do not notify/alert you. You can set this either by clicking the icon at the top right of you notification bar and also via Settings --> Apps and permissions --> App notifications.

Tried that and doesn't always work for hanghouts and Facebook messenger. Also took them out of hibernation, any ideas?
I'm Currently using Cm12.1 with Cm kernel (The one which is pre loaded in rom) getting 8hrs of SOT Pretty Smooth than OOS! Really alot customization! You don't even need Gravity Moudle in that Rom. It have nearly everything! Hope so Op releases M update soon, so the rom would be pretty stable with working FP and LAF
Im on skydragon now. It is much smoother than stock. Performance is slightly better. Sot around 4h. Battery drain is 5% per 6h in indle. Its many but ok
