Problems

Hi Russel

I was using the first version and I had many problems with my SmartBand, constantly disconnected. Is it possible that this problem has been repaired?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] russel5:
Hello, try to update for the last version via OTA, if problem not solved, then i can't help you
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] ghoticx:
I will try, thank you.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] fabiosinus:

Can be installed in future updates without any problems through the app update ??

Thank you for your help !!!
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] russel5:
Yes, you can. Only if you are not change system files
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] fabiosinus:
Will there be a German version?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] mhsc34:
hi not to do the update as either recovery or ota yet I put on leave enable
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] russel5:
No, sorry. Only original, more stable, less bugs
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] tndb:
Before I try, is the 4.8.15 from the old thread same as the one in first post? Reason I ask is if I need to refresh 4.8.15 again or can go straight on to the OTA updates? Got UB
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] russel5:
I don't remember. But you can flash fresh version without lost data, just choose update rom. See how to install in first post
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] tndb:
Just tried and it didn't work so I just flashed the complete rom again and then the OTA updates straight after and boom back in business. Got the lte option in network settings and all is well except maybe battery time compared with stock rom but will see how it turns out now after a week or two. Thanks alot for your contribution :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] ygecesefa:
So we must check root permission from apk properites?Because I cant still see any root option in setting>security?

Help

Hi [MENTION=315257]russell[/MENTION]

I have installed the ROM and it is beautiful I am a newbie and just do not know how to install or apply the OTA files.

Would it be okay to use the OTA that comes as a prompt in the updater?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] russel5:
Hello, please do not double posting. OTA can applied exactly as ROM. All info in first post "How to install"

Copy to your phone and install via custom recovery
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] mkhairym:
Apologies. I have tried this but it keeps giving me an error.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] mhsc34:
[MENTION=347077]Russel[/MENTION]

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Accidd:
This is delta OTA package. It contains difference between files and patches. Yes it can be small.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] russel5:
If you are using right version of ROM, nothing change in system files then it's not possible

Sorry, but I don't understand you at all
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] joegrant:
Great news well done for getting miui to us!

Questions - Im Currently on unlocked bootloader, but with slimkat rom with mandi kernel. Can i just flash miui straight from twrp or do I also need kernel too via flash tool? Thanks
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] russel5:
You can just flash this ROM via twrp

Only do this with full wipe and chose Z1 6903 UB
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Accidd:
Oh and also some users might not be aware. If you use like wsm tools or other mods that mod system files you won't be able to install OTA. Russell is doing OTA by comparing full roms and generating OTA packages with md5 sums for all files. You can't change those files in your phones, because sums will be different and OTA will fail.

once the ota installed in recovery I redemare and my screen is too big for my back pin code here is desolated for my english
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] pixel81k:
Dear Mister Russel5

i enjoyed this ROM now for 2 days - i'm highly impressed how fluid almost everything works - still, in the end, there are some points which disables it as my daily driver - and also: i in no way criticise your work, i appreciate it, ok? just want to let you know, if you are interested in this feedback :)

- after half a day, xperia-keyboard became very laggy - for example opening the smileys menu, or switching to special-chars; usually takes around 1 second; in stockrom, this is fast and fluid; this didn't change after reboot

- i'm missing the stamina mode - i didn't find it - is it available at all? or will it be available?

- i had 2 heavy hangups (phone stuck for several minutes, had to force-shutdown it), followed by rebuilding media-index - probably somehow filehandling has errors? (i use an additional 64gb microsd, halfly filled with audio)

As already mentioned - i am very impressed with the fluidity of the rom - transitions, start of apps - just blown away! i'm just a bit terrified with the battery use - even in standby, it uses 2-4% an hour

Thank you very much!!
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] mhsc34:
ota ok
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Saafa:
Hi Russel

The way we would ever use it cause some problems in root permissions. In addition install the official stock kernel that was causing recoveries are lost.

I've found a way to install this ROM on my LB.

Steps:

1- full wipe.

2- install the ROM.

3- flash EVO9 kernel for LB (It does not require flashtool).

4- flash Z1C-lockeddualrecovery[VERSION]-BETA.flashable.zip for having recoveries , to meet future needs.

5- Reboot and enjoy :D

still, sry for bad english :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] russel5:
I don't know why are you use this steps, when:

flash stock kernel

use NUT dualrecovery installer (NOT flashable)

profit
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Saafa:
Because with this method, the user does not need a computer and like any other ROM can be installed easily.

Anyway, it is also a way for himself! :D
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] evil_lcf:
Hey guys, thank you for the miui!!!! After trying them all i guess I'll just stick with miui. But i have a few questions.

-I'm on 4.8.15 and i haven't found the setting for choosing the camera's resolution, is it there or it just set it to the max?

-The i tried to take a screenshot but it says the memory is in use mmmm.

- And in whatsapp, if i press the emoticons button the keyboard doesn't lower so i end up with the whole screen taken and can't see what I'm writing.

- is it possible to get rid of the menu button in the dock? 4 buttons are too many

-and lastly, any way to get the home button on the lockscreen so that i can activate the torch?

Thanks :)

Ps.. Calendar just started fc on me... :((((
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] fabiosinus:
When will the next update?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Saafa:
Hi russel :)

I've found a bug in lockscreen.

In all the lockscreens of this type (Miui v4 like lockscreens) this bug exists.

[IMG="Screenshot"]http://upload7.ir/imgs/2014-09/28473579505843125536.jpg[/IMG]

Do you have a plan to fix this problem?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] russel5:
I not see any bug? Tell more

And i NOT build this ROM, only port from lpws521 ROM for Z1
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Saafa:
it seems that's not in the right place.

It should look like the following image:

Like this:
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] russel5:
pls use a tag (HIDE) for screenshots

and try to default theme, see if this happens

if not try reboot phone after apply new theme
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] fabiosinus:

MultilangROM added
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] fabiosinus:
available at the 4.9.5 version no update button
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Accidd:
Correct. Multilang version doesn't contain Updater app. You will have to update the rom from recovery flashing full rom.

OTA is only for Russels en rom.

How was the battery report after flashed MIUI? Is it drain fast or normal? I still using the MIUI from gplay and hasnt rooted yet, is it worthed to flash this? Im a new fans of miui. Sorry for bad english

Thank you
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] sinnadla:
Wow!!!

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] sinnadla:
Btw, is there existing Backdoor in Miui?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] fragolino74:
Good morning, I apologize for the English but I'm use the translator.

The update just use the ota right?

Ota which you have to put all those present on the first page?

How to choose?

The bootloader should be blocked?

thanks
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] russel5:
No need OTA

Just flash last version 4.9.5
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] fragolino74:
Thanks, bootloader unblocked ok?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] russel5:
With last version you can use locked bootloader

Just choose z1 compact lb
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] fragolino74:
I unlocked the bootloader is locked I have to send it in for service.

As you do not know the root with a locked phone, I do not understand the procedure in English, it is possible using the latest version of flashtool to unlock the bootloader and install this new rom?

Or do I have to have the bootloader locked for not having problems?

The miui vers. 6 between what is available?

you can update via ota?

Thanks
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] russel5:
If you have locked bootloader, you must download SuperSU --> http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu and put this archive in your phone

Then you need this tool --> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2261606

In your phone make USB debuging and run this tool and choose 3, if all correct you reboot in custom recovery, flash SuperSU and then you will have custom recovery and SU.

Download this ROM, put in your phone, reboot in recovery and install. in AROMA choose Z1 Compact LB (this mean LockedBootloader)

That's all
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] bawbaw82:
2 questions.

I from Paranoid with bootloader unlocked.

- How to flash my kernel with last version of flashtool and your .ftf ?

- How to install this rom, because in my custom recovery (CWM - based Recovery v6.0.5.0) , the process to install the zip archive ( miui-eu) "fail". I see a menu with Mandarin character...

can you help me ?

thx

EDIT :

Ok, works fine, but with mandarin interface it's not friendly.

Theme engin doesn't work ? forced to reboot if i want leave them.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] fragolino74:
Now that I put miui, I do not act anymore the dual recovery, how can I set up a recovery with miui, I read about the recovery touch download put in internal storage and reboot, then with volume + o vol. - no enter in recovery.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] fragolino74:
Sorry but how do you put the dual recovery?

I worked just to install the Miui but now I do not have anymore.

Excuse my ignorance, with the Ota updating the miui?

Thanks
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] aKiLL3r:
I missed two things from any stock or cm based :

- normal emoji keyboard: in all apps like whatsapp, telegram, viber, etc. If I press emoji key over the keyboard emojis appear on another keyboard up the main, covering almost the entire screen.

- in lockscreen the miui function of the torch with home button. There is not the home button! There's just the unused menu button.

Do you know any fixes for these?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] russel5:
if you have locked bootloader, just install version 4.9.5 again, but choose Update ROM and Z1 Compact LB (in AROMA) and you will have dual recovery

Install NDRUtil via Google Play Market, then you can install last OTA
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] fragolino74:
Ok thank you very much. With the update back to the original Rom, I lose all apps?

I downloaded NDRUtils, I saw that I already have a recovery through the app Philiz, so I was wondering if I can use that instead of the dual recovery.

Now to put the Ota please show me how should I do?

I place the ota in the internal memory or the sd Micrso?

Then use the philiz touch and I install it?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] russel5:
No matter sd card or internal storage

If you are choose Update ROM you will NOT lose your apps

Yes just install OTA via PhilZ

P.S. And last, sory guys, but i think this is my last build for you, because i pre-ordered Z3C and have it 26.09

Sorry again.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] fragolino74:
---------- Post added at 07:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:31 AM ----------

But the OTA update you saw it on the website of miui?

As the author of this magnificent version will use the Z3C I was wondering where it was possible to get these updates.

If you can put it directly touches or make some changes.

Excuse me, I have a problem not having the dual recovery how do I start the installation of miui?

thanks to all
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] fragolino74:
Excuse me, I have a problem not having the dual recovery how do I start the installation of miui?

Maybe there's some step that I do not understand?

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] nico1375:
I am very impressed...

Apart from some untranslated apps in Chinese (including parts of the Aroma installer), this ROM is light, fast, and best of all it includes the original sony camera app which was the thing that previously refrained me to go for custom roms...

So thank you very much, I just installed it last night, I can't wait to see its battery use...

After 10 days of use, generally speaking it works well.

BUT :

- I have random reboots which is of course very annoying (if it's in my pocket, I loose network connection until I enter the pin code do I am not reachable).

-Sometimes there are major freezes

-battery duration drop from 2 days to less than one day :(
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] hoefkko:
I have the same problem.

For me it seems like the weather app and the cloudservice is causing the problem.

With rootexplorer I removed cloudservice.apk, weather.apk, weatherprovider.apk and xiaomiServiceFramework.apk.

For now it seems like my battery life is better.

Also check if your mobile provider supports fast dormancy. If not check this link on how to disable fast dormancy in z1c: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2382680
