Nanroid made in with CWM, also TWRP don't see it.

Try reflash...

After reflash don't changed: can't mount system the SD card!

All works fine, but I NEED SD card
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] akshaybz:
The CM11 boot.img comes with CWM.

Extract the img from the link (Unable to attach here :silly:): [DOWNLOAD]

fastboot -i 0xfce flash boot boot_cm.img
fastboot -i 0xfce reboot

This way you'll have CM and can restore the backup if you want :)

Although I still have no clue what happened with ya :P

Did the installation failed? bootloop? or what?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] papzi57:
Could you help me?

---------- Post added at 11:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:18 PM ----------

Attached missing.

So: The installation was full without any error, no bootloop.

OK, please attach the CM kernel, and I'll try again.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] akshaybz:
Ohh, so the only problem is that your SD card is not detected?

Has to be some error on your side coz it works well with mine :/

It's at /storage/sdcard1 or external_sd :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] papzi57:
ONLY problem? Sorry I don't understand..

Can't take a screenshot.

On setting/storage I only see: Mount SD card, but nothing happen,

On Esfilexplorer I see on storage/ sdcard1 or ext_card empty folder.

This not ONBLY problem...
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] akshaybz:
Can you give me a screenshot of "Settings > Storage"?

(If you can't take screenshot using Slim shortcuts, you can use some app from Play Store or use DDMS tool from the Android SDK.

Thanks :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] papzi57:
Unfortunatly can't take screenshot (I dunno why), in settings stuck: Mount sd card.

Ok I need tomorrow early morning to work, now end the experiment...

Don't understand what can the obstruction.

Currently using build 7.0 PCFR with Mosh Kernel, it is quite stable, few random reboots, and was able to do -25mv undervolt.

the only major problem i encountered is the slight battery drain, and i suspect it is caused by the kernel. is it possible to have the stock kernel back after flashing custom kernel?

===

will be reverting back to 6.8 for now..
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] essi:
Just flash the ROM again, then you will have stock kernel back.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] mflow:
still got the same random reboots after re-flashing the ROM.

guess i'll stick to 6.8 :p , there are no major changes from 6.8 to 7.0 tho.. :D

anyway, anybody here gets Pimped kernel working? i entered endless bootloop after flashing the kernel :p

Updating

[MENTION=4800636]OmarEinea[/MENTION]

I browsed this thread (maybe I missed it), but how do I go about just updating the ROM?

I have build 6.8 (loving it so far!), and not all that interested in having to re-install and set it all up again.

Is it just reboot into recovery and flash the new build?

Cheers man, and keep up the great work!

//chris
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] essi:
Yes just flash ROM and wipe cache/dalvik - reboot system, if you have customkernel you have to flash him afterwards too, you do not need to flash the gapps again, if don't want to update.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] ollie.olsson:
Cheers dude!
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] akshaybz:

Am I correct to assume that is not possible to get the screen to wake when notifications is received.

Or have I just not looked in the right place :)

My question to all phone functions / parameters can be exploited slimkat kernel of whether there is any restriction on the conclusion if I ask. Currently, the factory rooted deodexed rom I use, but I'm used to the Slim and it would be nice if I could use this.

What format is your SD card?

you might have problems if it is exFAT.

It should be FAT32.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] papzi57:
Could you tell me, how can I format 64GB SDHC to FAT32 structure?

Xperia Z1c format this typ itself exFAT.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Didgesteve:
I have never played with cluster size and unless you plan to use your phone to edit videos, I would leave it at the default.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] clyphox:
Installed this and have had generally a very good experience. A few comments:

- sensor problem with rotation, have rotation enabled but none work. Games depending on tilt don't appear to pick any thing up

- the inbuilt su was clumsy to get working, eventually found how to enable it and have upgraded it with supersu now

- all mods I've tried from xposed framework working well so far

- I'm surprised to say this but I miss the stock camera. Found the one on this rom slow and clumsy

- Will we get DPI changing support sometime?

All in all very glad to be on slim again and thanks for the excellent rom

Considering its age this is a remarkably solid and impressive port! Good job
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Proda:
Do you think you can merge your unofficial build into official SlimKat?

Z1 is already there, so it would be awesome if we'd have official support, and you can still be moderator I guess.

Please ask them. They already announced KK4.4.3.

I'll play with my Stock Rom for a bit, but in future, SlimKat is the one I want.

Cheers and GL!
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] sachilleas:
Couldnt agree more. I really hope for an official support for our device by SlimRoms. As you already have said , Z1 is still there after all and I don't thing it would be too difficult for them to support z1c also! I would be grateful if we could have SlimKat in our device. I use it in each and every device I have owned in the past.

I wanted to fix the bugs before I put up a request for that to the slim team...

But due to my schedule, I haven't got a chance yet... I'll try to as soon as possible :)

Data connection not working

I wonder what i did wrong because I followed all the steps to root my phone then backup keys and so on. And at last i flashed this ROM to my phone. Anyone else had this problem? Was i supposed to flash CM11 first?

All help is appreciated.

Best regards

*solved*
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] MadeInFinland:
I just noticed that NFC is enabled all the time. When switch it off and leave the menu and then return, it had automatically turned on. Is this a known bug?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] MadeInFinland:
lol, this is obviously not going my way. I was about to install titanium backup and got the message that I was no longer rooted. Did I lose my root access when I reflashed this ROM directly thru TWRP. Should I have gone thru some specific steps while reflashing this ROM? How I did it was that I dalvik cache and cache and then I flashed the ROM and gapps.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] juried:
For a long time already there is a bug with the root access setting, it is set to on at first boot but it isn't actually on. It needs to be toggled once and then it starts working. So if you set it back to apps now, that should also work.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] MadeInFinland:
Ok, thanks! Have you any knowledge of this "NCF bug" I mentioned? If I switch it off it immediately switches on. So it's draining some of my battery at the moment.

What camera app is used in this ROM?Is the AOSP camera?If so...is it fully functional?Can it take full 20 mpx pictures and has photosphere working?Thank you!
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] akshaybz:
No it's not ASOP

It's slim's own modified version

Much more options

Yes, you can take full 20MP pics

And for photosphere, you'll have to use the google camera app from play store.

PS:

Sorry guys, I don't have the device with me anymore. Dad broke his Defy+ and had to give him my Z1c.

Back to my Nexus 4 :P

I'll release an update as soon as I get a hold on Z1c.

Wish you luck with this ROM :)

SlimKAT, my present favourite ;):good:
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] OmarEinea:
Ok, but my question now is; are there any real changes you have made on CM11 kernel and device tree??

because your sources are kinda old, I mean there are many changes between your sources and CM11's once,

so if the changes you have made aren't really important or are easy to share, please let me know.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] akshaybz:
In the device tree: I fixed the TWRP resolution (it was messed up :p) and removed camera/torch overlay as the build was failing otherwise.

I know the sources are old, so maybe you should try building with new sources first and if any error occur then postback or check my commits? :)

And damn, I kinda messed up with kernel sources :p

There were 2-3 changes so that the build may succeed but I kinda deleted that repo and re-forked Slim's repo (they shifted to CAF) but my phone got taken before I could merge those commits and test :(
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] OmarEinea:
Ok then, I'll try my best with the new cm11 sources, and if any error occurs while compiling, I'll ask you:laugh:
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Proda:
Is that gonna be the new life of SlimKat for our amazing Z1C?

Can't wait to see the results.

I'm too disappointed with this Sony Stock ROM. Slow and restarts all the time...

I wish I have more time to invest in making SlimKat for this phone :(

But I'm eager to try it once it's ready.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] OmarEinea:
[MENTION=2677528]akshaybz[/MENTION] , I managed to compile Slimkat today using cm11 kernel and device tree

without including any changes from your sources, and now everything seems to be working fine:

but as you mentioned; the resolution of the twrp needs to be reduced, so is THIS the only change I need to include to fix it??

and what do you think; should I increase default system dpi because the display seems a little small,

or this is the official resolution provided by slimkat from 720p devices??

BTW, building is going without any error, even though I didn't removed camera/torch overlay (maybe they fixed it in there new commits)

Thanks for you help man:)

seems so, hopefully a new release will be coming soon:cowboy:
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] akshaybz:
Great!

I knew things would have been solved by now :D

Yep, that's the only thing required to fix TWRP resolution.

That's the official SLIM DPI for 720p screens :)

I found the slim DPI particularly small for Z1c (coz it already has a small screen :P )

I used the stock DPI, of 320 :)

Good to see Slim fully working on Z1c :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Proda:
Awesome man...Looking forward to test it soon.

I personally like 268 DPI. I was using it on my Nexus 4, but for this one, maybe you can try 290 or so.

It's easy to adjust it later. Just create local.prop file in /data/ folder for changing the DPI settings to 268 or whatever you want.

New SlimKat Build 4.8 (20140430)

Here is my new slimkat build, thanks to akshaybz for twrp resolution fix and for all his effort,

Description:

Built using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr)

Based on the latest sources from slimroms sources

Changed default dpi to "280" , you can always change it using an app like this

Included the latest bug fixes from CM11.0 sources, like:

Fix for screen orientation, see here

Fix for manual network search, see here

Other minor fixes

Download Link:

Slim-amami-4.4.2.build.4.8-UNOFFICIAL-20140430-0012.zip - 188.79 MB

Other notes:

Bluetooth might not work on first boot, just reboot and it'll work

You won't have root access unless you put "Settings>Developer Options>Root access" on "Apps and ADB"

I have tested it after coming from stock KK and from cm11 based ROMs,

there is no need to flash the kernel inside the ROM first

If you do a "Format Data" in twrp, you'll lose your internal storage data,

instead of that, you can do "Advanced Wipe" > check Data and wipe

I think the ROM can be called Beta instead of Alpha now;)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] toxic_garden:
awesome! There's a long weekend ahead, so plently of time for testing. :D

I'll d/l and install later this day. Any informations about the camera quality? It's not the biggest deal for me but some people complained about poor quality on AOSP-builds.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] OmarEinea:
Well, it isn't as good as stock ROM's photos, but it is good enough (in my opinion),

anyway here are two images of my neighborhood I just took using the new slim ROM's camera [20MP],

and I figured the best way for you to see their full quality is by attaching them as Zip:laugh:

so download them and change their extension to .jpg and view them.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] toxic_garden:
thanks a lot! Picture quality looks fine for me.

As i am not a patient man, i already downloaded your build. 4.6 SlimApps are ok?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] OmarEinea:
Yup, I tested them, they're working just fine:good:
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] akshaybz:
Great! ^_^

Made you contributor of the project, you can edit it all you want :)

Hope to be back in the game soon :P
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] toxic_garden:
first things first: nearly everything runns damn smooth. And i love the touchfocus-cam! Just some minor issues that surely won't keep me from using it on a daily basis! :good:

At the first few boots, the settings did not show up. Neither the notification bar shortcut, nor the regular "Settings"-app worked. It happened twice, but since then, everything is ok and it shows up instantly.

Searching for available (not paired) BT-devices takes 2 or 3 turns before the device is discovered. But also this is no big deal for me, as it is a one-time issue. When the devices are paired, they connect even faster than on stock rom. :D

I changed dpi to 260, as i love small icons on that damn sharp screen, no other changes made to build.prop.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] crimson12:
I love you guys so much for this rom, it was the only thing I missed from my Nexus 5.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] toxic_garden:
after a few days i noticed that the touchscreen goes mad every now and then (approx. 2 times a day) when using swipe input. Once it startet, i get a huge amount of ghost touches even without touching the phone in any way.

It's not the app itself as it happens even outside the swipe keyboard. Tried Swiftkey and AOSP Keyboard. To fix it, i need to reboot the phone. I'll try to make a video of it next time it happens.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] akshaybz:

Any way to unroot this ROM to use banking applications ?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] OmarEinea:
you can unroot any ROM you want by deleting "su" binary (file) from "system/xbin/su" ,

if you do that (you can do it using any root file explorer or through adb) your ROM'll be unrooted,

and if you enter "superuser" section in settings, a message well appear to tell you that you aren't rooted any more.

Mostly device-specific changes again this time, including a few jflte updates, M7, i9100, n7000, new kernel for smdk4412 and p3100 updates.

We've also updated our builds to allow for exFAT support.

For some reason this rom is buggy in installing/uninstalling system apps. I can't explain well, you should try uninstalling system apps with Titanium Backup. Then try installing BetterBatteryStats 1.16 B3 as system app. The app doesn't appear in the app drawer.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] akshaybz:
It ain't the ROM's fault.

Has something to do with BBS.

Install BBS > Grant Root > Install as system app > Reboot.

I had issues uninstalling system apps in TB because I was bit overactive in freezing apps I thought I wouldn't need - you shouldn't do that with "Dev Tools" though :silly:

PS: my sensors don't work (without any apps frozen), does anybody else have that problem? Light sensor, proximity sensor, rotation, none of them.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] cc546:
Yes, I was using the xda edition and have rebooted once already. I have no problem installing the app on FXP CM11. :confused:
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Proda:
So I tested both 4.8 and 4.9 versions of SlimKat for a couple of days now.

Thanks for the awesome job.

I find everything that I need in SlimKat roms since my Nexus 4, 10, etc...

Yesterday I had some problems with Android System working constantly for 18h, but after Wipe Dalvik/Cache and reboot, today I have Android System running only for 12min for 8h now of using the phone. Dunno what happened yesterday though.

Sometimes Data connection and network are lost for no reason. I notice that by disconnecting the Viber app from time to time.

Well, maybe sometimes it's just the app itself.

I will keep using this ROM for a while now. I was also using OMNI Rom, but Slim is just what I need/like.

Maybe with the next release you can ask SlimRom team to integrate our phone in their regular updates? :fingers-crossed:

Oh, one more thingy...How can I buy you a beer? I'd really love to do that for this awesome job! :victory:
