I'm running the build before the latest. Supersmooth and fast. No problems regarding that.

I travel a lot for my work and have my phone connected to my pioneer Bluetooth radio in my car.

With calls I have no problems (anymore). But I also use the Bluetooth function to listen to music on my phone.

Sometimes it's playing fine, but suddenly it's like the track plays faster like it's pitched and loses some milliseconds in between. Very strange!

Someone has this issue also?

Regarding calls: The speaker is WAY to loud. When I make a phonecall it's like the loudspeaker is turned on. Like others, I have to put my phone away from my ear to avoid damage.

Also your privacy is harmed because everyone can follow your phonecall conversation.

Apart from above. It's near perfection.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] ndoo:
20150219 build is working excellent for me. Very smooth and great battery life. A few minor issues that are not show-stopping for my usage:

No audio when putting calls on speakerphone

USB tethering notification does not go away when USB is unplugged

Lowest 3 brightness levels exhibit flickering - only affects auto brightness in darkness

Dim notification light even with fix here

CM12 themer occasionally fails to apply theme components and/or causes NullPointerException on next boot (never completes boot)

No keyboard built into ROM (was this by design? Anyway gapps+Google Keyboard fixes this)

Audio effects not working
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] MattCorbellino:
I cannot manage to get past fastboot boot.img flashing, terminal on my mac says

sending 'boot' (11862 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.595s]

writing 'boot'...

FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)

finished. total time: 0.598s
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] ndoo:
You'll need to unlock your bootloader in order to flash over boot in fastboot mode.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] MattCorbellino:
so is it possible to flash cm only if you unlock the boot loader?

---------- Post added at 01:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:49 PM ----------

is it mandatory to have an unlocked boot loader in order to flash cm?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] FcukBloat:
yes
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] ndoo:
To add on, this is because the recovery is part of boot.img for Xperia devices, so you will not be able to flash a .zip custom ROM without overwriting the boot.img with a custom kernel+recovery.

If not, the stock recovery facility is only designed to work with Flashtool & OTA updates.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] RealitySwitch:
It's pretty unlikely that any ROM which isn't based off Sony stock would be able to work without the kernel being updated.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] MattCorbellino:
Update: managed to install cm 12 latest build correctly, all went fine as expected after unlocking bl.

SuperSu though seems to have some problems updating the binary in both ways Normal/via Recovery.

Is is normal // is there a fix?

--- I'm sorry for being so dumb in not searching the thread before asking, all works perfect, thanks!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] RealitySwitch:
FYI CM 12 has built-in root (it's worked so far for me).

Enable developer stuff (10 taps on build number under "About phone")

Under developer options, set "Root access" to one of {disabled, apps only, ADB only, both}
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] someone755:
You're better off disabling that and just flashing a SuperSU zip via recovery. The built-in superuser is bugged as hell.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] ndoo:
Just installed the 20150224 build and so far I don't notice any new issues, but I also don't see any fixes. Haha.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] m0d:
I am having issues with the external SDcard.

If I unmount it and remove the card, I need to reboot he device in order for the phone to detect external SDcard again.

It does not detect it automatically when I insert the card back again.

Also, even with addition of

# set USB OTG enabled to add support for USB storage type
PRODUCT_PROPERTY_OVERRIDES += \
persist.sys.isUsbOtgEnabled=1

to shinano-common tree, USB on-the-go does not work.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] z3c_user:
white led

Stumped here. After flashing the boot.img, when I switch on I get the purple LED but pressing vol+ switches to a white LED/black screen and that's it. I can get a recovery by using the DooMLoRD kernel instead, but with older CM12 versions that complains about a device type mismatch ("z3c" vs . "D5603" iirc), and in newer versions it goes up to "detected filesystem ext4 for ...userdata", then shows a blue progress bar that's permanently stuck at 75%.

Is the DooMLoRD kernel a dead-end? In that case, how do I get the CM12 kernel to boot?

Cheers

Frederik
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] someone755:
Stay away from CWM. I mean that. It's the spawn of 90% of problems I've seen people have with recoveries.

Next, download a TWRP image. Search this thread for it. Run "fastboot flash fotakernel [name of image]" and make sure you have the CM12 kernel flashed.

Now your recovery works and you're free to do whatever you'd like.

Good rom but

Not as smooth and stable like stock sony rom.

i noticed some fcs and camera quality is worst.

the rgb led light is blinking but it is no more bright its very dim.

AT FIRST WHEN I FLASH IT IT SOFT BRICKS AFTER SPENDING 1-2 HOURS IT BACK ON ITS SIDE

AND AFTER FLASHING GAPPS THE DEVICE STARTED TO OVERHEAT AND BATTERY DRAIN AND I AM USING PA GAPPS.

BUT GOOD ROM TO FLASH.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] someone755:
Holy poop man why the size 6 red text?

Your little review (and I'm applying the term very loosely here) serves no purpose -- no logs, no accurate descriptions, no nothing.

All the bugs you've pointed out though have already been pointed out in

SDCARD

Any clue how to install/move apps to sdcard ??? or its impossible ???

Try some apps (link2sd, app2sd, etc) without success...

Regards.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] mick711:
You don't need other software, if it's possible in setting apps you can.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] MattCorbellino:
Any ETA for the camera quality fix? It just sucks how pictures are taken right now on both front & rear cameras :(
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] ndoo:
I don't find the camera quality subjectively any worse than stock ROM on unlocked bootloader (with Google Camera app and not Sony app) - i.e. with the DRM keys wiped out. I.e. the issue is likely not the ROM but rather standard behavior of Sony Xperia devices after bootloader unlock, with third party camera apps.

What I do notice is that the distortion of the lens is much more apparent though.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] matthiastan5:
What about RAW images? It's Lollipop so you should be able to take images in RAW right?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] MattCorbellino:
Plus, please please make a toggle for the new lockscreen visualizer, it's just awful IMHO...
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] puiatmp:
No, is not

Course i try to change option in Apps --> Prefer local installation --> SD Card removable

Or try do click on Installed app and try to move to sdcard....

No success, of course.....

Looks like CM12 on z3c cant recognize our sdcard how a extended and replaced partition... this is on same place of Android...

sorry my poor english....

Unlock via Bluetooth not possible?

Can't wait to be able to unlock my phone via android smartwatch (Bluetooth). It worked with stock kitkat, but not with CM12. It asks if the new device could be trusted and I'm activating my G Watch R, but I must enter the security code (pattern) if my watch is connected or not :/
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Elvin99:
Is Ant+ working with the fxp Image?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] thetemplar90:
First I hear of this, is this a real thing and do I need to do this in my current CM12 nightly or will it be done in future patches or else?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] TheMabaet:
Does flashing this custom rom removes the Triluminous display and X-Reality software? I'm not sure with these technologies, I apologize.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] someone755:
These things are only found on stock and stock-based ROMs.

They are though, imo, useless and most people don't even notice that they're gone.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] drophex:
I'm really wondering why there are no new nightlies for a couple of days now. Does anybody know the reasons?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Heartkingz:
I'm wondering the same.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Michealtbh:
Something is causing the build to fail. It happens occasionally
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] someone755:
For anyone confused: http://jenkins.cyanogenmod.com/view/All/builds
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Heartkingz:
So does anybody know why the upcoming nightly's are failing? There are loads of fixes in the upcoming build as far as I can see on cmxlog.com
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] drophex:
Oh this is really annoing that there is absolutely no information whats going on and how long it takes. :rolleyes:
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Heartkingz:
Think new build is up in approx. 2 hours. Its in The queue ready for building. 19 builds left if you look at jenkins website. Use link provided by a user a couple of posts ago.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] drophex:
I must say, I absolutely don't understand anything on this page. But it says "defective since this build" 29 minutes ago.

But I hope you're right :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Heartkingz:
It's back to normal. So it's moving again.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] drophex:
Alright. I'm looking forward for the build :)

Edit: Yeah, a new tasty fresh baked build is online finally :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Valentino911:
when will arrive the CM update with android 5.1? in the next two weeks? in this month?

is there a release date? can you extimate it?

Thank you guys and excuse my imperfect english :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] MattCorbellino:
Nice they fixed the LED dim problem, even if the "Display" section in settings constantly crashes
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] smorgar:
Mine does not crash when i go into display section in settings. Running latest nightly.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] someone755:
Works just fine for me. Dirty flashed over the 4/3 nightly, tried with both the CM stock and my own kernel.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] MattCorbellino:
You are right, a reboot made the trick!

Language and Entry

Hey all..

After last update (20150313) i cant enter in language and input to config the keyboard or something....

Report sent...

Regards...
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] ndoo:
I've crossed over into official CM12 nightlies and see the following fixes:

- Notification light is at correct (full) brightness now

- Auto brightness has more comfortable brightness scale (previously got too bright for dim environments)

- LCD temperature/night mode/color calibration in settings

- Advanced wifi settings in developer settings

However, seems that something in common in both official and FXP builds is that reboot from software (whether it is regular reboot or reboot to recovery) doesn't work - phone goes into power off state (or charge-only mode if USB AC adapter is plugged in).

---------- Post added at 10:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:47 PM ----------

I flashed PA Modular GApps and the Google Keyboard flashable ZIP at the bottom of the PA GApps 5.0.x thread.

However I notice that the official nightlies (non-FXP) come with the AOSP keyboard so you can skip the additional step of flashing Google Keyboard.

You can also adb sideload the Google Keyboard APK if you do not want to have to keep flashing the Google Keyboard .zip everytime you flash a new FXP nightly.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] someone755:
Doesn't happen to me, and it doesn't seem to be kernel-dependent. What I have noticed though is that if you do a soft reboot (doesn't matter what app or method you use to do it), you're left with mobile networks. A reboot fixes it though.

Or use CyanDelta and configure it to flash an additional .zip every time you update. (You speak as though you don't know what CyanDelta is, so here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cyandelta)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] ndoo:
Hmm I don't mean soft reboot as in re-loading Android (sort of like an iOS re-spring), but rather holding the power button and tapping reboot when the menu comes up.

My Z3c does not come back up after a reboot (effectively a shutdown). Hmm..

Just what I needed. Thank you!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] someone755:
Have you tried a clean install? Issues like this are usually fixed by one.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] mooon3:
Hi there, coming from other devices I want to continue on CM12 with z3c. But I wonder : what about pictures though? Is there a way to take advantage of the 20Mpx of Sony device? Components implemented? To implement ourself over rom? Nothing for the moment... Or is it available only on stock?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] puiatmp:
Language and Input crashing

So, i install cm-12-20150317-NIGHTLY-z3c.zip, dont flash google keyboard and problem persists...

Just curious as i've never had a non-nexus device before; does cyanogenmod normally release an official build for xperia devices or is it normally produced by the FreeXperia team?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] jsscx:
sony release almost everything needed for aosp builds,they're open to devs,but due to unlock bl issues,many people wouldn't do it,at the same time I think z3c doesn't have as many users as other HTC/SAMSUNG phones.I hope I'm wrong :D
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] someone755:
AFAIK, the FXP team usually start the CM projects for Xperia phones. Once those are finished (read: in full daily driver state), they're added to the CM build servers like the other devices.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] jsscx:
Just flashed 12/29 build for z3c,still the signal drop issue.Since checked gerrit without finding any new changes,I'm not surprised.

I don't know how because i'm not dev but you can find GIT for Lolippop here : https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/device-sony-aries

And for Cyanogen 12 here : https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_sony_z3c

I don't know why but i think tipo is very strange because for same device two name : aries and z3c

Thanks

And you can see a in this page Cyanogenmod with aries name but for the moment don't exist : http://fxpblog.co/qualcomm-krait-400-family/sony-xperia-z3-compact/
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] someone755:
Aries is fine for AOSP development since there isn't a single build server to handle these builds for multiple devices. Unlike CM, where a build server is required to build official builds by device codename -- with Aries already taken by the Xiaomi Mi2/Mi2S, a workaround had to be found -- and z3c was chosen.

The first git repo you listed is merely the AOSP device tree -- development also goes on in the kernel and shinano repos. I'll be covering updates to the Z3C's AOSP development in the FreeXperia 5.x.x AOSP thread for convenience (this is the CM thread, after all).

And again with CM, development also happens in repositories other than the device tree. A great way to check on that would be going to the gerrit. A quick link would be http://bit.ly/CMgerritZ3C, which shows every pull request that has to do with the z3c (denied, cancelled, or approved). Using it is pretty self-explanatory (unlike GitHub repos, branches, and commit history for a lot of users of XDA), so I will not be posting of updates on this -- if you want to see if there's anything new, follow the link above.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] edcarsky:
can we now flashing the recent build FXP-cm-12-20150110-UNOFFICIAL-z3c.zip directly from SdCard1 (external) . it would be great to flash directly without extracting boot.img from the zip and flash it via CWM, please confirm, thanks.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] someone755:
You don't need to extract the boot.img prior to flashing o.o

Have a good recovery and flash it with it (read: do not use CWM) and it'll all be fine and dandy.

xPeria Z3 compact USB-OTG? CM12

Hi,

i have downgraded Firmware, rooted with giefroot, Backupd my TA Partition and installed TWRP.

Then i tried to flash cm12-nightly with TWRP, but before flash some Errors stopped the install.

Because i have read about kernel, i tried to install the cm12Kernel with TWRP and make a big mistake:

"I`ve flashed the CM12 Kernel to recovery and bricked my Device"!

In the same moment my USB-OTG Stick stopped working and after restart the device are dead.

The screen was dark and the LED still off..

With ADB i get connection but no permission to flash Kernel so i unlocked the Bootloader, flashed Kernel and now the CM12 works.

But now my USB-OTG Function is not working :(

Is this a CM12 Bug or a deffect?

Should i flash back to stock ?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] someone755:
You can, in theory, flash literally anything to (almost) anywhere and you should still be able to flash something that works over whatever you flashed before. (Just don't write on the radio or bootloader partition.)

CM12 has no OTG AFAIK. Just tried, won't work.

double tab is back

hello all,

at first, a big thanks to all developer and helper, cm12 is great on a z3(c).

I install the 0319 and see, the double tab to wake is back. But is it on and someone calls you, you can't answer the incoming call. Is double tab off, you can accept phone conversation.

With the new 0321 is the same problem.

A pity I had been looking forward to it.
