[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] DeadXperiance:
You can read on first page op said How to install the main point is

Flash stock ROM via flashtool

After instalation configure your cellphone basically, no accounts, no apps, etc;

Download the ROM and place it in external storage

Root your device and install NUT dual recovery

For unlocked BL, flash the kernel before flashing the ROM

Reboot into recovery to access philztouch ( press volume up to access TWRP )

Wipe data

Wipe cache

Wipe dalvik/ art cache

Select and install my ROM

Follow instructions in Aroma

After installation complete, back to twrp menu > advanced > file manager > data > system and find batterystats.bin and select > delete, if it's not here..skip and reboot

Activate root access, charge your phone and enjoy

Is it possible to upgrade from SP006, or should I wipe?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] eEnzo0:
Clean install if you don't want trouble. It may work but it's way better to start clean.

I have updated SP008 from SP0065 without wipe, and there isn't any problem.

what kernel this you guys use for this rom i mean for unlock bootloaders?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] ElMeik:
Guys, sorr but I got confused a little on the correct procedure. I am on SP004 right now and would like to flash.....but I cant get into TWRP recovery. Red something to go back on stock rom first but thats where I got stock re the needed files.

Can anyone pls tell me how to approach this and where to find necessary files? Do I really need to start from stock via flashtool etc? Is there no other chance to get TWRP running and flash from SP004?

Thanks for your patience answering this in advance.

*cheers* :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] levone1:
If you're on dstriker, I guess you're rooted, so good way to get recovery at that point is NUT xzdr - http://nut.xperia-files.com/. Alternately, you could use fastboot or Rashr app to flash a newer twrp, (like 3.1, [NUT includes 2.8]), which is real-recovery compatible. See [MENTION=4063475]derf elot[/MENTION]'s builds here - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=41716

It's worth a try to flash over 004, but you might end up having to start from scratch...
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] ElMeik:
Thx for you swift reply - my bigest challenge at this time is that i dont get recovery to work nor fastboot mode. Tried Rashr to flash TWRP 3.1 - told me done..but rebooting in recovery just restartet OS. Then tried to start fastboot mode by pressing volume button and then plugging in cable - nothing happens with the phone and fastboot is not activated....dont know where the issue is...

Can you help? Am i missing the recovery partition since SP004 ? Why then is Rashr flashing TWRP w/o error message...so strange...really got stuck somehow at this point...

EDIT:

Now I´ve made it that "fastboot devices" shows a device - "Sony SA0109 ADB Driver" was missing...."fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.0-0-amami.img" brought no error and ended with "OKAY" - but still...pressing VOL+ & Power nothing happens...pressing VOL- & Power Z1C starts normally into OS but not into Recovery...where is my mistake? USB Debbuging is enabled...

Thanks for your help :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] levone1:
You may not have bootloader update. If you haven't flashed stock 236, or got ota update, you might need to use Emma to flash stock fw to have new bootloader, which can enter recovery that way. With the old bootloader, you can enter recovery at Sony logo screen when led flashes, but you need old type of recovery, which requires flashing NUT, or, you can try to pull the boot img out of a custom kernel, like advanced kernel by [MENTION=5008080]sharonliu[/MENTION], and flash that boot img with fastboot. That may have recovery included...
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] ElMeik:
Finally that was the solution - installed stock .236 ROM via EMMA and then TWRP via fastboot...after that recovery worked and the rest was straight forward..clean cache..Nougat installed and Gapps installed. Now on working Nougat and configuring :D

Thanks guys for your time !!

Thanks
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] ElMeik:
Sorr for misunderstanding - but - Nougat is not working fine for me experiencing known issues like very bad cam, battery drain and APN no connection as well as interrupts while having phone calls.

Think the best will be for me to go back to latest DStriker SP008.

Just one question...dont wnat to break up things...what exactly is a "dirty flash" which is to avoid? Do i really need to go back to stock first for DStrikers ROM and the flash it or can I just boot into TWRP now, flash ROM and GAPPS? Or is this the dirty flash mentioned?

*cheers*
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] nhicko95:
did you try AICP 12.1 ? its smooth for me no bugs except blurry camera
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] levone1:
Dirty flash is not necessarily a bad thing, but probably won't work to update Dstriker. It just means to flash a zip over your current rom, without wiping anything. Many times it's totally fine, if updating a new version of the same rom, and it may be OK here too, (some people report success and some people report bootloop), but the recommended method to update dstriker is start from stock. I would guess that if you're on custom N rom, you will have to flash stock 236 first, before flashing dstriker.

how to install xposed framework on xperia z1c?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] DeadXperiance:
xposed*.zip from http://dl-xda.xposed.info/framework/ Must be flashed with a custom recovery (e.g. TWRP) to install the framework.

SDK21 is Android 5.0 (Lollipop), SDK22 is Android 5.1 (also Lollipop) and SDK23 is Android 6.0 (Marshmallow)

For Z1C you should take from 'arm' and choose latest
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] winds.man:

Anyone facing bootloop after supersu update?

I'm running the sp005 version of this rom and, I if accept to update super su, the phone goes into boot loop.

The only thing to sort of fix it is to restore backup and kernel partition from a old backup.

I have successfully updated supersu on this rom in the past. Why am I not able to update it anymore?

Any help?

Otherwise, I haven't found a copy of firmware 236.ftf so I don't know how to move on.

If you have any solution, pls guide me.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] levone1:
Install Emma - https://developer.sonymobile.com/open-devices/flash-tool/how-to-download-and-install-the-flash-tool/ (You'll need drivers, etc.) - and connect the phone in flash mode. You'll see option to flash 236.

After flash, download advanced kernel to computer - https://xdaforums.com/sony-xperia-z...rnel-advanced-14-5-0-242-kernel-v1-0-t3096060 - and extract boot img from the zip, then use fastboot 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' command. Now you'll have recovery to flash dstriker.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Emperor.dk:
I have had freeze issues too on SP007, that could only be solved with hard reboot.

[MENTION=6122975]dstrikersZ1[/MENTION] - seems like there's preferences about different versions, especially since the last 2 or 3. Do you have copies of older versions? Personally, I prefer Xperia dialer etc, instead of Google.

(stupid me - I had last 3 versions on my Drive and closed my account before backing up).

Also i have another question im having trouble downgrading from nougat to this rom it freeze at the sony display not going any further with the installation i can revert back to nougat again but not to any lollipop rom has nougat mess up something in my phone?? :(
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] levone1:
To downgrade after flashing N you have to flash stock with Emma or Flashtool. Someone told me that you can use Flashtool 'wipe apps log' function, and that would work, but I tried one time and I couldn't get it to wipe apps log without wiping system. I didn't look into it much, though, so I might have missed something...
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] jasmineloveflower:
omg omg thank you sooo much on another forum some one recommended emma flashtool and it work it did indeed erased everything to stock rom but at least im not stuck on a broken nougat rom. Now the tricky part is getting it back to twrp and dstriker rom hopefully it should be easy without any pain and i hope i remember how to do it. lol

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] levone1:
If you've ever flashed a Nougat rom, you need to flash stock with Emma or Flashtool before going back to any stock based rom.

Thanks now I installed it correctly. :good: :laugh:

But why camera is a bit laggy compared with stock rom + Cyberian 7.4 ? :confused:
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] levone1:
There are a few complaints about camera in last few pages of this thread. I think 008 was supposed to address it. I haven't tested it out much myself. Try flashing cyberian or other mods and see if it helps.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] DeadXperiance:
You are on stock right, first root your device with any well known method. search for root 'your device model'. Read carefully all details for rooting before taking any steps. You can see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aue_zS779W8

Once you have done that, install nut's dual recovery from http://nut.xperia-files.com/path/XZDualRecovery/XZDualRecovery_2.8.26.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] RottenWings:
First i want to Thank you :cool: it was my mistake to try without root. i misread this somehow but your Links helped me a lot to get startet.

i managed to root, install LockedDualRecovery and Finaly the "DstrikerZ1KaiROM_SP008" !

... but now i´m stuck @ the bootloop. :laugh:

EDIT: i tried many ROMs to get Root but only one works for me "D5503_14.2.A.1.114_Customized_FR"

i guess it was not the right decision to jump from Android 4.3 to DstrikerZ1KaiROM_SP008 and that cause the problem.

But no other Android Version helped me to get Root. I Try it again, step by step with the OP Instructions. Maybe it Helps.

I'm coming from a plain LP fw 236 with locked bootloader. I installed this rom and everything is running smoothly, I only have two issues:

1) SuperSu doesn't show up in the launcher (either home screen or drawer) although I see the SuperSu popup toast asking for permission the first time I run an app that needs it and SuperSu appears among the apps going in Settings->Apps->All tab.

2) I'm not able to move the text messages from the old rom to the new rom: I tried both with Titanium and with "SMS backup and restore" app

Any suggestion about these two points ?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] levone1:
Can't tell you about sms backup, but for Supersu, either look through settings, (rom control or privacy,or etc...), or just install the Supersu app through play store.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] karamancho:
for the first one: you can access the superSU somewhere within the settings. I used the rom long time ago so I don't remember the exact details but there should be an extra item in the settings like "rom control" or something similar. there you will find the option that brings up the superSU app.
