This mod work very well but i have little problem with version 2.0. I have lg l9 ii with stock 4.1.2 jb on it, version 1.0 work with viper4android and it sound great but when i installed version 2.0 on clean rom (ofc still 4.1.2 jb) system run good without any issues or fcs but after installing viper i cant run it...! I dont know why but viper cant just run, it is in app drawer but when i click it make screen black for 3 sec and come back to app drawer wiothout any screens or something, he should ask about su permissions and install drivers but this not happen. Ofc super su and busy box are installed and work good, dont know why it happen, i tried install viper later extreme and first extreme later viper in both ways still same problem. I come back to 1.0 because viper for me is a must, maybe you people know how to fix it. Installing viper as system app dont change anything, i tried to add viper drivers on my own by copying its file from old system to lib folder and adding necessary lines in audio_effect.conf but app still cant run
I have installed ver 1.0 on my sgs 3. I am running CM 11 on KitKat 4.4.4 . I use Nova Launcher. I do not see the icon to run the EBS program. I looked in the appp drawer for it with no luck. I do see the build prop entries in my buildprop. Poweramp loads and runs fine. Can any one assist me? BTW, I did try to install ver 2 and ver 2 update. Separately of course. The fc behavior reported by others happened to me. I restored backup then installed version 1. Please advise how to locate the icon to use this program. TIA. Gary

Providing it's Android 4 or up, sure.
Opss, until now I found problem with my phone: even I install busybody 15 or 18, then flash this mod (v2), then I found nothing add into my system/app and system/framework, ... only string was add into my build.prop. I don't know why, but before I installed successful this mod, with full file in this zip into my system, now didn't, even I mount system in recovery before flash zip. My phone is rooted, of course. Anyone like that?
hey guys,
I've installed this mod and I have a question.
Is there any app where I can configurate settings like in viper4android? Or is this mod made of various libs and Service's running in the background without a primary app?

More specific please... EB version? do you have custom kernel installed or just stock kernel from rom? do you mount /system before flashing EB? The best way to install EB is after flashing the new rom. You need to mount /system then flashing EB. Reboot. After that install v4a and its drivers. Reboot again. If you follow that method and found it's not working try another version of EB. If the problem still persists, seems like it come from your rom side not supporting it.
Hi!
This beats-mod seems very promissing.
I wonder if it will work on my brand new I9301 S3 Neo ???

Just flash this in your recovery, and you are done.
Download link
Pls tell where is the download link of zip file
i flashed version 2.1 on my evo 4g lte with TWRP recovery and it flashed fine, but when i rebooted and played music, it stayed the same. Was an app supposed to be installed or something? I have Viper4android installed already, but extremebeats doesnt show up anywhere...are there more steps besides flashing with recovery?
Stock Rom?
I'm new in this kind of topics. Does it work with a Stock Rom?
This mod doesn't work on my HTC One M8. Android 4.4.4 3.28.xxx.x Rooted Stock, S-on. Tried it a bunch of times with different practices, it just soft bricks the phone every time.
OP, what can you say about this? It says in your page that my device is supported but it doesn't work. Or maybe it's just me, what should I do if it is? Help please, I'm really eager to have this mod.

DOWNGRADE to KITKAT
EASIEST WAY TO REVERT TO KK
: Enable USB debugging reboot into recovery (in lollipop)
: WIPE:-- SYSTEM, DATA, CACHE, INTERNAL SD, DALVIK (dont reboot)
: battery out 3 button reboot into DOWNLOAD MODE (safe bet)
: odin 3.09 and install the kk tar file
and you'll be back at kitkat
So, just checking as you didn't say, is this Kitkat or the new Lollipop rom?
If anyone has gone to Lollipop there's a chance, if the bootloader was flashed,that they can't go back to 4.4.4 kitkat. It'll just result in bootloops until they reflash Lollipop...

Looking forward to the develpments here.
Well done.

Yes, fully understand. I guess you will start giving them version numbers as you develop your custom Lollipop ROM.
It takes time to add tweaks and test them out. But in the end, it should just get better.
I pop over to the Note 4 thread every now and then and see what tweaks they are coming up with, as there are a lot more Note 4 users than Note 4 Edge users.
I will defintely be keeping and eye out here and will install your next ROM and give it a go.
Keep up the great work.
No one else is really doing anything for 915G, so you're the Man !

If you need a hand testing or whatever send me a message, glad to see something for the 'g' around here. I used the zip you linked to earlier @panjaby and my phone is snappier now.
And yes, im getting fc on front camera, ive cleared the camera apps data and reset but still no good. I did dirty flash over stock lollipop so that may be the issue.

There you go mate i am using 2.8.4
HybridRom Concept EditioN
Description:
We all got used to the idea that most stable ROM is a Stock one.
This ROM will prove you otherwise.
Main Futures:
Very fast and responsible ROM based on Z3 aosp concept and GPE libs with amazing battery life and memory management.
Perfect combination of Sony and Google apps.
No bloatware, no adds.
Only 400 megabytes.
Optional modifications.
Installation options:
Feel free to install the rom the way you want it:
Wanna install & forget?
Then LB version without any mods is your choice.
Care about security and want to have nexus like phone?
Then don't install recovery on top of LB version , with encryption your internal storage can be only erased and only using a computer.
Are you advanced user who'd like to experiment with their phone?
Feel free to install mod for theme support and kernel for advanced futures.
You can also convert your phone into a hacking device. (Like in watch dogs game )
Change log:
V2:
Updated Sony and Google apps
Removed:Browser,Google Now,Gmail,Viper,Video(support implemented in Album) and some other bloatware.
Fixed Sony Sound Enhancements
Fixed Write To SD Card (I hope so)
Added new weather widget
Bugs:
Some people might have 5ghz wifi connection problem
In case of the using LB version and Universal Patch, trying to reboot into recovery using advanced power menu will result a bootloop. (System is trying to access a part of kernel which is not available on LB version]. Solution: reboot into flash mode and back.
Wifi may disconnect during screen off no matter the settings. (This is android problem, not my rom)
Installation Instruction:
Make sure that your Bootloader is Unlocked.
Boot in TWRP.
Wipe system,data,and both caches.
Flash the ROM.
FOR LB USERS ONLY: Flash this kernel on top. (Thank @scrubber for that one )
Then (optional,but not recommended) flash recovery for locked bootloder from here
Reboot device.
Prepare to be amazed.

FAQ:
Things you need to know:
Before reporting bug reports make sure that you use this rom without any mods such as Xposed
"App XXX crashes" posts won't help me to understand the problem, learn how to use logcat.
Don't ask for ETA
Before asking something, make sure it wasn't asked before
If you ignore my rules - I will ignore you
Q: Will Xposed work?
A: Yes, but install on your own risk, don't complain if battery life will become worse.
Q: Are themes supported?
A: RRO Layers are. Use Layers Manager + LPThemer(Xposed)
Q: Option "double tap to wake" in settings is not working
A: It's kernel related,so this option won't make any difference.
Q: Can I use old Hybrid Rom v1.x Kernel?
A: It will work, but deep sleep won't, so you will have a massive battery drain.
Q: Are you going to port Sony futures such as stamina,small apps and etc.
A: No, as this requires to use Sony framework. This rom is different. If you want stock futures - take a look at my other projects.
Q: How to allow 3rd party apps to write to SD card?
A: Use this app, you can remove it after applying the fix.
First,
Will try and report you back. Just one question does theme engine from sony is working or not and does it gpe based or stock sony based. Thanks for you great effort.

probably theme engine would not work . Its aosp based with limited sony framework to make only essential sony apps work .This was a new bloatware free concept rom from sony itself.

Nope, it's AOSP Z3 Concept and GPE based.
Clean AOSP Rom with Sony look and Apps.
P.S. If you will have problems with installation, you can try "Modem fix" from GPE thread, as I've heard that ZUltras for Indian market don't like gpe modem.
It have the latest goods from the 1.5UB ROM ? And the camera its from Sony ? How its the battery usage ?

Because I don't have any .zip of gapps on my sd0 I guess you don't need to flash gapps. And flash instructions says none of gapps needed.
Theres no harm to just boot the rom and see if gapps is there. If its not well then u dont have any google apps in your drawer.
edit: the rom is 450MB big...I'd be surprised to see gapps not included in such big file
edit2: in the description it says "Some Google apps removed, others replaced with stock ones." ...lol gapps is included for sure.

Work fine so far on my c6802 with exposed (v74), WiFi work as it should
No modem fix needed (encounter sim card not detected on first boot, but mobile data work just fine :silly
Rom is really smooth. Menus just fly by very smoothly without any skips or lag! No errors or anything. Everything is stable from what I experience.
I am very impressed with your work @Uncle Lucifer
Tried the ROM for a couple of hours. Amazing and smooth. I just wait for more kernel features (OC , governors, hotplugs) like advanced kernel of the OLD HybridROM.

After testing oc and governors for few months I've noticed that more thing you add to kernel, the heavier it gets, and instead of improvements it's getting worse.
The best result are so far is without extra governors and oc.
I mean battery life and performance.
With OC you can get extra 1k in antutu, but I don't think that a really important thing.
Hi !
love the new rom, seem so fast and battery friendly
however i encounter wifi problem seem likely as cm12 custom rom. thats y i never stick with any cm based rom.
on gpe based rom, this bug currently not happening at all.
wifi keep disconnecting after several minutes and cant found any access point, if you try to disable and enable back, its still the same, only reboot will fix this, however wait 10-20 min, wifi will disconnect back, and the bug go on and on.....
i did report to cm12 based thread, about several thread, about 4 months now, the bug still not fix, maybe because it only happen for a few users, so they ignore it. yah, 4month and counting lol.
Uncle, i love your gpe based rom, and this current rom as well, i hope it did well and great as same as previous rom.
im coming from your gpe based rom, however already did full reset.
maybe i need to stick back to your previous rom.

Well, I didn't touch hardware related stuff and I never had this problem.

I guess you see this problem, because you have two xperia phones with custom roms. And your phones have same mac address. When you use your phones in same wireless network your wifi will be dropped. Try to change your mac address...

It's just less aggressive therefore it's more battery friendly.
And the minimum level is less, so it's don't burn eyes in darkness.
I personally like it more.
This rom is built directly from the stock MRA58R Google image.
PSA
For pin to work you will need a permissive kernel, Rom is currently running enforcing so flash a permissive kernel if you want pin. No issues if your using cataclysm. I'm working on figuring out the fix thanks.
It is basically just the system folder extracted from the MRA58R Google update and repackaged as a flashable zip with a stock kernel with added features by @gerar_f.
I packaged this together for people that want a Stock Bloated Google experience. Or a fully stock rom to customize to the users liking.
Any mod made for the stock google rom should work 100% here.
Cataclysm mod is recommended if your looking for a more custom rom experience and I fully support flashing it over this rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/orig-development/rom-cataclysm-nexus-6-t3219121
Cataclysm flashes a kernel so if you like the added features of gerar_f's kernel then you will want to flash it after cataclysm. Link below
Rom Features

None really. This is as stock Google as it gets, you will find all the gapps that will possibly fit in the system partition just like a stock google image.
Root is not included. Flash SuperSu 2.5.2 if you want. You can run this rom un-rooted with cataclysm mod flashed over top and have a custom unrooted rom with working android pay.
(Theoretically) I haven't been able to test pay around me
Busybox is also not installed so grab that from the playstore if you want/need it.
Included Kernel by @gerar_f
Included kernel is Custom "Stock" v4 created by @gerar_f big thanks to him and go over to his thread and drop a like.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/development/kernel-stock-kernel-root-color-control-t3218958
Kernel is stock in behavior with a few features. First it is without forced encryption, It is Seandroid Enforcing and includes several features, Root with rw if rooted, Disabled boot verification warning, Color control, Headphone and mic gain control, Vibration control, Wake gestures, Multirom support.
TIPS
There is only 33mb free in the system partition due to google including so many gapps. In my testing ive found that this is enough for installing 1 layers theme and Cataclysm Mod.
Some gapps may need removed to install things like Xposed modules, and other apps to the system(TBO apps, better battery stats etc) or anything that takes up more than a few megs going into the system.
I personally remove Fit, Sheets, and Slides which gives you around 100mb free in system which is enough for my use. I recommend this app for removing system apps you dont want. Root Required.

Thanks
@gerar_f for great custom stock kernel. (I couldn't even begin to figure out how to customize a kernel)
@tupac4u for the updater-binary and update-script to flash the zip properly. (my attempts at making the script were futile)
@atl4ntis for making Cataclysm and inspiring me to create a stock rom for said mod to be flashed over.
Google
@magnamentis @dhruvmalik for testing. @Chainfire for ROOTS!

I was surprised that there was not a unmodified flashable Google rom out so I put one together.

I tried myself too but gave up
I wonder: this is a one time project? I mean if there's a new factory image can i just extract the system.img and put it into your zip and never ever bother you again?
(I'm not able to download today hence the question)
EDIT: please don't mind the kernel in this question

I'm planning on releasing more versions as Google releases it's monthly updates.
To answer your other question it's not as simple as just extracting the system.img but isnt too hard. Basically you extract the actual system.img from the Google update. Then use ext4 unpacker to unpack it into an ext4 file. Then you use ext2 explore to unpack the ext4 file which gives you the system folder with all the files within. Then just take the system folder a compatible boot.img and a working meta-inf folder and zip them up. Then you have your Rom.

Feel free to ask any other questions.
Yea that's very simple way to make a Rom. I wouldn't call myself a dev or anything. The other custom roms require a lot more work like modifying system apks to add the extra features. This is just full unmodified stock with a kernel. I figured it would be a great base to flash cataclysm over. Seeing how it's recommended to flash cataclysm over a full stock Rom this is as close as it gets right now. People have had luck flashing cataclysm over other stock modified roms but I worry that those modifications may cause issues with the modifications of cataclysm. With that said I'm personally running it without cataclysm. I just removed a few gapps I'll never use flashed and installed around 10 team blackout apps, and applied magpie midnight theme for a almost fully blacked out experience.

As stated above by others, I was also surprised that there wasn't a flashable stock ROM available, primarily for those who wish to be stock, use xposed and or mods like Cataclysm.
This is working awesome; thanks @GavinMazey
Great idea, I'll probably be checking it out soon with CatMod. Any chance you could debloat it? It's not hard for me to just use Tibu to do it, but one less thing to do is always nice. No worries if you can't.
Thanks for the rom!

I'm not really planning on debloating, there is a plethora debloated roms for the n6. But if enough end up wanting it I might. But if I do it would be my personal debloat instead of removing as much as possible. Keeping it stock let's me update faster when google drops new images.

+ 1 on NOT debloating. Every one could do it how they like it by themselves.
Thanks.. It's good to know I have an option to flash the zip. I might load up cataclysm tonight
This is great for those who want fresh out of box stock experience with working ANDROID PAY. Once you root it, trim it, customize it, then ANDROID PAY won't work.

Noted. That was my thought too stock bloated base for users to do what they want with it. I personally use most of the gapps included, I personally only delete sheets, slides, and fit (I may be a fatty lol). I've found most debloated roms remove too much so instead of having the gapps taking up system space I have to install them to internal storage taking up space where they don't need to be.
Too much free system space is wasted space imo.

If your already on android m you should be good to flash this then cataclysm. Report back how it went if you do. Haven't had too much feedback on users actually flashing it. Hopefully because all works great [emoji12]

That's exactly why I kept it unrooted. In theory someone could flash this Rom and then cataclysm without root and have a custom Rom with working Pay just no root. No where that I've been around me accepts pay so I am unable to test. But in theory it should work.

Flashing cataclysm will replace the included kernel with cataclysm kernel which you'll need to check supports multirom, I'm not sure off the top of my head. But if not re flashing the included kernel by gerar_f after cataclysm will give you multirom support. Also I'm not entirely sure you can run kitkat and marshmallow in multirom at the same time. I haven't used it myself but I think (I may be wrong) that multirom uses your main kernel for all other roms. So a different android version may not work properly. Again I might be wrong.

Soo i have Z2 with stock rom,i now want to root it and install some custom rom....I need some advice whats the best right now custom rom with all features (Z2 camera mod tweaks,battery tweaks,audio boost...)
And i would like to have different UI i am bored of stock android And that have no bugs
I never rooted and all that more help the better What i need to do to get custom rom and all that
It's best to do some searches, get an idea of how to to root, what ROMs and mods there are. Then look for threads regarding what interests you and ask questions there.
Bear in mind there's less development now for the Z2.
Good luck

First of all you need to install latest official MM build, I assume you've alredy done that. So next step for root and recovery is in this https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/general/tool-rooting-23-5-1-291-supersu-t3437280.When you get root and recovery you need to backup your TA partition bcs of DRM keys(use google about that). Guide is here https://forum.xda-developers.com/xp.../tutorial-backup-ta-partition-to-drm-t2234627 After that go to flashtool and follow process for unlocking bootloader. Now you can install custom kernel too. Only active thread with developers is https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/development/aosp-6-0-marshmallow-sony-xperia-z2-t3235951 and its very confusing but subscribe there and follow thread. I personally use stock rom with mods without xposed, and everything i have written you is from my personal experience about 2 month ago. So good luck, and if I helped you press thanks
Android 6.0.1 is on my Z2 D6503 and I know to root and unlock bootloader thats easy,but i need to know what to install after that ?
Which ROM is best optimized with most features(audio boost,battery life optimized,camera optimized) or i need separatly to install this audio boosts,flashlight boos,camera optimized apk and all that ?
If there is no best say at least some good ROMs with these features i said and that i can install features if ROM doesnt have it ?
And i want to have different UI i am sick and bored of stock android

I installed all mod's manually on my stock MM, but you can find something like this is best option (my opinion) https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/development/rom-kryptonian-rom-awesomeness-v1-t3484534
Can this ROM support this mods on xda for cam,audio,flashlight ? Or it needs to uptade or change some first ?
Only it is stock android look is there something to install some mod to change look ?
And can i just root and unlock bootloader and install this mods for camera,audio and all that?

Every Stock modified rom supports any mod that you mentioned above ( some have it already pre-installed).
If you want to change the look on stock rom install xposed or flash mods like Pixel mod..
You dont need UB to install any mods, UB only to install Custom Roms like CM,Paranoid....

Yes you can
For looks some of them need debloat check before flashing it\
Camera audio mods, display mod, quick charge all can be flashed just with root and recovery.
Assuming your rom is Stock
