Done post at main page 1st post.

"It is advisable do a FACTORY RESET after update to 4.2.2 for gaining back the smoothness, as jumping to another version is required FACTORY RESET for everything running as smooth as it suppose."

If you at existenz ROM, factory reset will remove all apps you install and revert back to how existenz set it. It look as factory stock as it shall, those SuperSU apps still remain.

Now I am back to pure stock ROM updates from PC Companion by select repair my phone. biggrin.gif

Stock Look, 1st time posting 100% stock look after initiate setup.

My Xperia ZL screen got some flickering. Noticeable when backlight is on.

Anyone notice it? Try turn on backlight and check.

im using xperia z, I faced issue with my screen when I on backlight, im not sure to say flikering but it was like backlight is vibrating. noticeable on max brigthness, especially with white n grey background pic. the problem happen since I update to 4.2.2, the problem gone after I reflash to stock Rom, factory reset, wipe dalvik. however couple of days ago the problem came back when I watch video with white background, at max brigthness, but today I dont c It happen. im not sure is this a software issue or bug or a hardware issue. but I hope it was the software. currently I only set brightness at 22%, no flickering.

The way I do is:

  • Boot to TWRP
  • Select the ROM zip.
  • Add [[NUT] Dual Boot Recover. zip.
  • Flash both.
  • Wipe Dalvik Cache. (select the left button beside reboot at TWRP)
  • Reboot.
  • Camera Common will FC here and there after 1st boot, lockscreen widget not working.
  • Goto Settings - Backup & reset - Factory data reset.
  • No more FC for Camera and lockscreen widget working back.
  • I dislike page indicator auto hide did by monx®, so I replace with niaboc79 one via Root Explorer.
  • Immediate restart the phone after replace. (remember with correct permission set)
  • Done! biggrin.gif

I still not sure whether to flash any honami ported Rom as it came from a leaked version. also I believe this honami leak isnt the finalized version, myb still beta stage. I hate buggy Rom.

Guys, did you use the Box app from box.com?

It has occurred to me so many times that I experienced a ' problem transferring file' issue. Do you guys face this?

Tried to solve by downloading to sdcard directory and also downloading to my main storage directory but the problem still persist. Tried to uninstall and install the app again but I still get the same problem, sigh.

I just downloaded a pic from my box via box app, no problem.

i set to 360DPI, 600x1024, save/force close/restart app to see the difference.

but to bear in mind it'll be changed to google tablet version, you might or might not like it. nod.gif

for me im fine with it. as tablet mode of the browser brings in more icons to gain "control" over the app.

I use 360 due to Google play issues.. if you change to incompatible DPI, your google play is gonna show every app as incompatible..

160 (mdpi)
240 (hdpi)
360 (xhpdi)
480 (xxhdpi)

Check first page. Use xposed app to configure apps that wont work well with your current DPI nod.gif

you can use any DPI but set google play to any 4 I listed above with xposed app to avoid incompatible apps issue..

I change to 360 too from 240, the ui now look better compared to last time as the font was dem to small hehe
