Wifi doesnt work for me. Also music playback doesnt work, it just hangs the music app (didnt try with any other app like poweramp as I dont have any internet access to download it ;) ) signal also doesnt work (even sms or calls). NFC either. all that just says turning on and hangs on it. bluetooth turns on but can see any devices. Im listing here everything that I found until I revert to stock ;) also phone reboots few seconds after turning the screen off. Sorry, reverting back to stock as it is my only phone and I need it functional. I hope I was helpful at finding at least some bugs :) and God, how smooth Android L is is unbelievable ;)

Just wanted to say thanks

I've got to say, you're really kicking ass. There aren't many Z3 developers at present, and I didn't think a Lollipop port would make its way to the Z3 this quickly, but here we are ;)

I can't test yet, because I need stuff like mobile data on a daily basis, but I'm really looking forward to the daily driver release of this ROM. Keep up the good work! :good:

^^ I'm sure others are in same boat - would love to collaborate but there is nothing I can contribute that @krabappel2548 wouldn't be a million miles ahead of me on..

saying that, would be nice to get the benefits of others' fixes in my "learning to build" repo/git play arounds ?

(btw, my build had all same issues as this one)
