Lollipop 5.1.1 236 with black UI by LAGINOO

[broky]

first of all,i want to make clear that this is not my job and
maybe i shouldn t post it here but i do so,
for everybody that might be interested.
i use this rom(7.2 version,yesterday 7.3 came out) for a month and i m totally satisfied with it and especially because i can choose during installation the option for black UI,not lollipop s white that i don t like(and i really wish that roms we have here gave the black UI option)
you can take a look and get all info here http://forum.xperia.cz/viewtopic.php?f=85&t=10207&sid=3d5f172ed8e5ef5f0a5d897b65e7e0a4,
no need for registration
you can see installation instructions in this forum(use google translation)
all credits and thanks go to LAGINOO ,

AROMA installer is in chesz,but after AROMA you have all the language options available

download LAGINOO S LG 7.2 5.1.1 Rom:

blokovani reklam means ad blocker,ne is no,ano is yes/

[broky]

Have you found any black-on-black or white-on-white text issues? That's the one problem I've had with every dark mod I've used so far. There's so many little programming details that it usually shows up somewhere.

but these screenshots aren't of this ROM, right? which ROM 4.4.4 is this?

Thanks broky for have updated the OP Now I desire to flash this ROM :laugh::laugh:

...there are some bugs about visualization on 7.2 (or 7.3) version? Do you experienced any graphical problems?

 

[levone1]

Couldn't figure out what to choose in Russian aroma, so ended up with regular ui. I'll try again...

Thank you very much...but on ROM, it's possible choose other language? if yes, it's only AROMA that is in Chesz?

if you want, I think that AROMA installer can be in more languages...if you want help about translate in other language (english and italian in my case) I can help ..I think you have to send me (or upload somewhere) the lang properties file for AROMA installer, and I can help to translate it in english and italian, if the developer agree, at least english.

Let me know it's possible have AROMA in english language.

you're welcome if you need help about that. Thanks for all your effort :good:

EDIT: Reading discussions at the end of thread in original forum, seems that 7.3 version of ROM is unstable and have some problem with audio and so on.
Previous 7.2 version (the one that you use) seems be removed from download, because on the "old version" section there are 6.2 and older.
Can you upload 7.2 version here, that seems you've tested a lot and works well?

 

[user1254]

Can someone tell how performance and battery life are on this rom?
Thanks

Thanks

battery life is like the other stock based 5.1.1 roms,no differences and you will not be dissapointed at all, i could say.
lollipop has prettier UI but kit kat is the leader in battery life for our phone(my opinion)
@DomusX10 and others:refreshed OP with link for download 7.2:good:

 

[user1254]

What about sound? Is it loud as it should be or just poor?
Same here? I mean better sound for kitkat and worse sound for lp?

sound in kit kat is in general better than lollipop.
but i m quite sure this rom s sound is modded and is better than stock .236 lollipop(headphones and speakers are enough boosted)

Just flashed v7.2 after a full wipe..............SO GOOD!!! :good:

:victory: :victory: :victory: :victory: :victory: :victory: :victory: :victory: :victory:

Full...Black...UI....this is that I looking for!!!! Over one thousand of Many many THANKS to my friend broky!!!!

General impressions are: ROM goes good. Optimized, light...smooth. No problems with 7.2 version.
I've flashed new Sony camera v.2.0 over, without problems. And using latest home, version 10.0.A.0.24 and goes very well (double tap to sleep works perfect)

Thanks to broky even for the guide to install...This is what my Z1C now look like....I'm in paradise....(look at attchments..)

EDIT (4/4/2016) : I'm on 7.2 version and all goes well, works good, phone is fluid and reactive.
Only problem that I have is with sound playing with speaker.
in the headphones feels great, the bluetooth streaming toward my headset SBH-50 is fine. The problem is from the phone speaker (ringtone, notifications, playing music) because even in volume not too high (mid) croaks. Audio is distorted, dirty.

I saw the phone often I wash it, at first I thought was some remnant of water. But apparently not this effect disappears. It may also have wrecked my speaker, so I ask the opinion of who is using this ROM if the same thing happened. Seems like if the sound volume it's been set to high from default (even in low level) so when you turn the volume in half, as if it were already very high. This is my impression.

Therefore him back as problematic for fairness, rather invite those who have installed this ROM to bring his impressions about this.

Broky, how sound goes from the phone speaker wiith your Z1C? Is there anything I can do to improve audio quality output from the speaker?
I don't use XLOUD or other Sony improvements...but even set them, situation is the same.
It could be due to some optimizations made by the developer?

 

[laginoo]

What are specific problems in version 7.3?

Seems unstable respect 7.2 ...take a look in the original thread discussions...some users says that 7.2 is better (for now) respect 7.3 in terms of stability, sound, xposed...

that is probably my fault cause rom is working perfect as Laginoo delivers it.
there is a possibility that i modified mixer paths.xml,i have to look at this..
meanwhile i upload stock mixer paths and please replace it yourself in system/etc,give right permissions and reboot.
please report back if this is the root of problem and my apologies to everybody,
i will reupload the rom as Laginoo delivers it:good:
