Hi all. Just want to share my experience.

I like installing new roms, mods and all that stuff, so i've tried couple of Nougat roms, a couple of Marshmallow roms, a couple of AOSP Lollipop roms, and they ran nice and smooth. But.

I've figured out, that the camera quality and battery life are the deal breakers for me.

So I decided to stay as close to stock as possible with some tweaks at my taste, until I get a brand new phone. No need to kick the corpse — it won't run :)

So:

— locked bootloader with SP004 (yet the most stable, smooth and nice looking rom),

— Cyberian camera mod

Then the phone was charged and had been left still over night. In the morning I've continued the setup:

— debloated (including small apps),

— Greenify and SD Maid moved to system partition to give them more priviledges,

— no Xposed,

— no root (temporarily, but I'm thinking to unroot permanenly and keep calm. Besides I'm tired of restrictions of banking apps that detects root.)

— maybe some more, until I get rid of root.

Then I've been changing settings, installing apps, texting, couple of calls, social networking, music and so on...

In the end of the day I took the screenshots below. Almost five hours of screen on time! I've never had this before!

Hello , I installed it last weekend , works really smooth but battery really drains , can somebody help please ???
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] pipyakas:
After more than a week with the rom, I have 3 main issues:

1. The brightness change according to what is displayed on the screen: it goes up if there's more bright colors (white etc...), and goes down if there a lot of black, gray etc... It's similar to Intel's display power saving on laptops

2. Color enhancement auto reset to off

3. Battery meter is not correct, sometimes it drops 20-30% at a time and also standby battery is pretty bad (although this might just be a hardware issues as my battery is not brand new anymore). Also voltage control for 2.4ghz is unavailable so I cant undervolt that freq

Hello all,

One question:

I've just discovered the F2FS file format could be better than Ext4 format on android, this feature is enabled on this rom ?

Thanks.

Make a backup of your current apks. Download zip. Copy apk files out of zip to your /system to the appropriate app folders. Make sure permissions are 644. For Settings and SystemUI, you can just restart apps, and will be new. For Framework-res, you'll have to restart phone, or just replace the file in recovery and reboot. If you do Framework-res while booted, do it quickly, because you might get a reboot a few seconds after deleting original..

I deleted them from public.xml because I couldn't get the text light. I think it must be in smali or something... Just use Gravity Box, or Xperia Xposed module to add it. It will show Tue same thing but with light text.

(I'm on a different ROM ATM, so I can't say exactly, but I did it with Xposed).

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Altherion:
Countdown timer (clock app) is failing in SP0065???

It's like it got stuck when it reaches zero and never shows up :(

any fix???
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] vildevilde:
Works for me, use it daily.

I wonder, (although I don't know anything about phone programming) why it is that there is different issues and or problems on some phones and not on most or all phones (in this case z1c)? Is it because we don't install it the same way? Is it because what was on the phone before this rom was installed? Different kernels or what?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] jmcatamora:
I'm waiting for SP007 .any UPDATE???????
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Altherion:
Just replaced "SemcClock.apk" with that from SP005 and problem solved... Countdown timer works now :victory:
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] jasmineloveflower:
Hi Charos i had a few issues with connectivity myself including bluetooth and wifi so what i did was in twrp before i installed the rom i did an advance wipe, i wipe internal data, system, cache, everything except external sd card where the rom is at so the phone is completely empty and then i installed the rom and it is now working excellent so far. Good luck. :good::good::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] charos:
Hello jasmineloveflower! I want to avoid the full wipe of my internal data. Been using the rom for some time now and I hate to go through the process of post installation.

Strangely this happened after the update.I Had no similar issues with previous version.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] 2alex:
Could someone please share the SemcClock.apk from SP005 or where can I find the SP005 download these days? In the meantime using beautiful 'Timely Alarm Clock' app which I can highly recommend anyways. Using the new Advanced-Kernel v19.0 (Z1C-Advanced-v19.0-gcc-linaro-5.4.1-Kernel.zip) which works great with this ROM so far.

Bug Reports and Some Suggestions

Thanks [MENTION=6122975]dstrikersZ1[/MENTION] for all your hard work

i recently got Z1C fully healthy tested on stock and every thing were fine :) (i owned iphone 4 since 2010 such a good phone and still use it as daily(only for calls and messages)) and install your rom in it and found some bugs

1- Dial *#*#7378423#*#* Service info > Configuration > Got "Unfortunately Service Menu has stopped:confused:??

2-i Use clean master to kill battery drainer apps and it required to Allow it on Accessibility menu on setting i turn it on (give to permission)next time when i open clean master it ask me to give the permission on Accessibility menu on setting:confused:??the Accessibility menu acts like its first time im going there it forgot every permission it not only about clean master same with greenify

3-camera is so laggy (not in recordings or taking pics) only when i using it normally it dosent give me a 20 mp phone sense at all but when taking pics they are good lagging is so annoying

4-camera wont focus or takes long time to focus (iphone 4 a 7 years old phone and got a 5mp camera its so easy an simple with a touch it focus so easy and fast you just press capture button hold on a sec and you got your photo if you need brightness focus ... it will automatically set it on 1 sec hold before taking pic no need any configs)i touch an object on camera to focus nothing happens just a white circle stays on screen and doesnt go any where camera app is so complicated with settings and stuff

5-GPS takes long time to fix or need internet to find location then use it offline i use sygic as offline map try with other apps same result

6-camera app in front face switching from manual to superior auto or from any mod to other "Unfortunately Camera has stopped"

Suggestions

will be good to have smart mods back in previous version they were present

Thanks

Does SP007 already have a battery fix or is it no longer needed? And Cyberian Camera 7.4 has already been added to the rom, as I understand it?

Well, I found out that the problem is not the ROM, but something's messed up with my phone... I flashed stock with FT, and no boot. Reflashed Dstriker, and no boot, tried again, and same. Then I tried to restore my 0065 backup, and no boot. Then I tried to restore my stock 236 backup - same. For some reason no stock or stock-based ROM will boot, but AOSP/CM works fine. Maybe messed up bootloader or something? I guess I'll try Emma next...
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] kondzi:
I have followed guide strictly and have no problems at all, great update!
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] jax_xon:
Installed without problems

Again if you like to install other camera mod you must install it before first rom start

Other thing is that in open apps menu the padlock to lock apps disappeared, I don't know if there is a problem with xz premium appearance, but for me was a great option

Thanks again for your great job dstrikers

Awesome ROM

Flashed whitout issues. I appreciate the fact that feels like a rock solid stock ROM but pumped and cleaned. I've just some questions:

Firmware 14.6.A.1.216 "official" Xperia update avaiable.

What should i do with this update?

There is any way to enable the bass boost mod AFTER flashing the ROM?

Which custom kernel will work?

There is any advantage selecting 5MP Pureview?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] jax_xon:
In cyberian 7.1 the colors appears irreal , red seems to be magent, green becomes fluorescent....

Pureview give you less noise that 12 and 20 MP

In 7,4 colors are real, 5 and 12 MPx disappears to 8 & 14 MPx and I think is better version

i forgot to install xposed framework after a dirty installation and

battery life became awesome:confused::o!

so i uninstalled again and battery life is awesome again..

i still have my xposed apps installed,just the framework is not active.

my apps are (in case is an app causing the drain and not the framework)

amplify,

greenify,

power nap,

app settings,

appops,

dark tube,

lovins phonebook,

prevent running,

vibration tuner,

Already dirty flash it from sp065 without any trouble...

But when I running nakedbrowser pro it was only show the black screen, menu etc didn't show up, naked browser running but didn't show anything.

I like this browser very much, so I do dirty flash again back to Sp065.

Anyway it is still the best ROM for my Z1 C
