Hi [MENTION=5428247]Yverson[/MENTION], [MENTION=4695495]moly82[/MENTION], folx ;

i agree with the above mentioned statement :D

So during my sparetime i try to find some supplement, to refine this wonderful base :good:

I discussed and tried some hints from [MENTION=1239635]mj084[/MENTION] - THX from this side :) concerning Soundmods. So here is a short list of the tested soundmods and my 5 cents ;)

SOUNDMODS:

Project Desire 4.5 - actually running - XLoud is not "that loud" compared to the former version - but Clearaudio+ gives a reasonable soundboost all over. (THX [MENTION=6126659]PDesire[/MENTION] for this mod)

Lollipop Sound StereoMod - this is a supplement to the above listed Sound MOD - V5 was too loud in my opinion - gonna test the new V6 in the next hours ;) (THX [MENTION=4170892]dontbelive[/MENTION] for this mod)

Lolli-POP Sound MOD v6.1 I run this mod for a long while - former version were much too loud like the stereomod above. But from time to time i suffer from the dolby app closing randomly. (THX [MENTION=3150847]pricey2009[/MENTION] for this mod)

Sound Mod v7.0 for Z3 Z2 - i just tested this mod in a former version so i don't know how it changed with the last version. Just to mention that i took it in account. (THX [MENTION=4045998]zohaib0001[/MENTION] for this mod)

ViPER4Android - i know this mod from my time with the SGS+ it didn't increased the loudness, but it improved the sound quality - i haven't tested it yet - maybe this mod with an adjusted mixer_paths.xml would be a good compromise (THX [MENTION=3901724]zhuhang[/MENTION] for this mod)

To change the appearance a little i tried some fonts provided in this thread:

Full Font Packs eXtended for Xperias

The only problem with this collection is that sony changed the names of the fonts with Andoid 5.1.1 so the used method doesn't work entirely - i think some italic fonts does not change. (THX [MENTION=4364359]Metallijim[/MENTION] for his collection)

Last but not least i try to keep my akku staying alive as long as possible - therefore i seeked advise in the following threads:

Extreme Battery Life Thread - I use the proposed apps for a while now and i must admit that they increased my battery life :good: With my normal usage i reached 4 days lately - before about 2 maxmimum 3 days. But it always depends on the usage ! My SOD was about 5 h. (THX [MENTION=5867207]v7[/MENTION] for collecting the information)

0% [0.0%/h] Idle Battery Drain on Stock ROM - This thread serves as a supplement to the information provided above. (THX [MENTION=5401012]Celestial Fury[/MENTION] for his thread about Amplify)

This was a short summary about all the little things i tried. I hope you find some useful information to investigate on your own on some topics....

A nice WE to all of you

Cheers

Rhonin

Dirty flashed this a couple of days ago and so far everything is running super smoothly with Kit Kat level battery life.

Well done [MENTION=4695495]moly82[/MENTION]!

[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] menhir:
Hi,

I am missing WiFi auto-on function depending on my location which was located in Stamina settings. Have you any idea which app is it regarding your debloat list?

(I kept all intelligent services which I use for handling incomming call , like shaking to stop the call or turn over to volume off + inteligent screen off settings)

Thanks!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
I didn't remove that actually, it was removed by sony in LP. btw you can find here in the forum the package to install to get that feature back ;) just search for "location based wifi" or something similar ;)

[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] starter15:
does .232 fix the brightness bug that was present in previous versions of lollipop?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
yes
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jakal46:
Hi!

I will make only if you have modded the current thread on Android M.

;)

bye

PS. Sorry for my Google English
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] cdou2391:
I'll try it in a few days

Can u give us a brief review?

Like,what are the bugs you've found?

How is the camera?better or worse than on lollipop.

I know that with the Doze feature the battery is supposed to be better but for me it seems like it's like the stamina mode we already have.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
not sure to understand correctly, but if you mean after I mod it, not sure if I will do, as rom is pretty fine as it is! maybe some extra debloat and few things, but for sure not that soon... will surely wait for dt2w to arrive, and recovery/root to be achieved! ;)

so far so good, rom is simply great for me! I love it for being so light.. have just disabled some apps I could :)

only big things I am missing right now are dt2w and root ;) but root is not so important actually right now until we get xposed for MM so... and about dt2w I am using an alternative based on proximity sensor atm so pretty good as well.

no big bugs until now, maybe some data connection disconnection problems while connected in 3g, but will have to check it further

didn't test camera that much, but seems good, and actually don't see why it shouldn't be perfectly fine... after all it is stock camera app and drm keys are on so....!! ;)

about battery, pretty soon to say something sure, and this is just my first full cycle... but still it seems very very good! with my regular usage I am right now at 6 hours sot and still 30% of battery left ;) :o the projection would be comparable to what I used to get in KK, if not better!! :good:
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Rhodesgod:
just look at these Screenshots.more than 8:30 hours screen on.50% brightness.

i just disabled " transition animation scale " in developer options.no stamina mode and it Was 100% charged.

i notice a problem : after calls i get " call recording stopped " how to fix this ?

TY [MENTION=4695495]moly82[/MENTION]
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
see 'important note' in OP to fix that ;)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] KUN1:
How do you get this long screen time? do you have xposed installed?

Because i "only" get 4h screen time and radio active bug is still here saddly :/

[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ovizii:
Hi there,

I have been using the debloating script on my Z3C for ages and would now like to switch to using this all in one solution since my firmware is only 5.0.2

I just need some reassurance as it looks like I need to wipe everything. I can do a nandroid full backup and backup each and every app and its settings with TitaniumBackup ( I have purchased the PRO).

The big question is, after wiping everything as required, how do I recover my settings? It really takes me a few hours to customize everything after a wipe if I can't restore settings. :(
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
hi, actually it is not really needed to full wipe, see note in OP after instructions steps ;)

you'll have some down sides not wiping data, but nothing really critical ;)

bye!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] kwchan98:
I have a question about the /system/app folder, now I have a apk files need to copy the folder.

For example the apk name is xxx.apk and need to copy to /system/app, am I need to create folder under the /system/app? If yes, what is the folder name? Is it same as the apk name xxx?

Thanks.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] xd4d3v:
Has anyone had any issues with the phone not detecting a headphone being plugged?

Havent used a headphone in ages, but i tried, and nothing happened.

Could be 100 other things..

just though I'd ask before I flash stock to eliminate software problems.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
see OP "how to restore something" part and you'll understand, no way to make it wrong then ;)

what you mean with not detecting? sound is not redirected to headphones when connected? if so, that's working fine here ;)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] xd4d3v:
yeah, thats the problem.

I guess i'll need to go to stock to make sure the software is not the problem..

more than likely hardware :(
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] kwchan98:
Yes, I have read it, but you are saying the backup app, and now I have an other app need to copy to the system folder, and it is just a apk only. In the other rom, I know that I just need to copy to the system folder and change to correct permission is done, but in your ROM, the structure are not the same as other ROM, so I ask you am I need to create a folder and copy my apk in the folder. Thanks.:)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
backup app? what's that?

and btw what is the app you want to restore? is it in the backup folder or is it something else?

ps. all the stock roms are almost identical with same structure
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] kwchan98:
Sorry, not backup app, should be the removed app ( /system/__Backup/system_app), I remember the other ROM, under the /system/app folder, there are the apk files, not the folder.

I have a LG G3 keyboard want to install, but it need to copy the apk file to the /system/app folder.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
starting from LP you should have always folders and then the apks. btw it should work either way (if the apk is compatible with this rom of course..)

ps why don't you simply try? if you do something wrong you can always fix things from twrp..

[MENTION=4695495]moly82[/MENTION]

I'm trying slim 4.1, but yours rom seems faster and more useful for my usage! I have a full backup in TWRP of your rom(system ,data ecc..). How do I proceed for coming back safely? (can't mess up because I'm without a Pc at the moment, that's because I prefer ask before :crying: )

Thanks in advanced! :) (you can write me in private if is faster)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
just full wipe in twrp and restore the whole backup you made! restoring should already wipe partitions, but i always do that in advance in any case just to be sure. of course you will get the data you had when you made the backup, and you'll lose the data you have now ;)

i wouldn't restore trim area though, if you never changed you bl status. bye!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Matteo Mazzu:
Everything went well! Missed this rom, far the best! Now let's patiently wait for Marshmallow :D
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:

P.S. I am still using your KitKat build, just can't get into lollipop lol

no big bugs, i like it :) only side effect is that to have root you need to unlock bl :(

Hi!

I'm back on your lollipop AIO. Until there is a marshmellow on AIO ROM from you ;)

[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] hyyz17200:
Running AIO for months, really fast and great battery-life.

Just an issus. I restored the native Email app but after add accounts, it shows no such email account can be found. The email account list is empty too. I can only add microsoft exchange acconut and it works.

So how I can add normail imap/pop3 accounts to it?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] bboran:
I am having a strange problem. My sensors are not working during the call. Normally when i am talking the screen is off but when i put my face away from screen it should turn on but its not. So for example i cant hang up the phone if the other side is not. Anyone experiencing this? What can be the problem?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
mhm, did you restore also the exchange package just for test?

mhm strange always worked fine here! ;)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] bboran:
Where is the call sensor of this phone ? :D
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] hyyz17200:
Yes, exchange too. So I can add exchange acconut. But normall imap still not working.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] CAL7:
Exchange2 or Exchange3 (or both)?

Did you fix your headphone problem? I actually never tried headphones until today and realized that the sound is not redirected to the headphones :(

see in OP, notes about full wipe vs dirty flash ;)

I have try but every time crashed :(

What i can try? In stock lollipop its fully work.

never understood why a few apps can't be installed via play store sorry but usually for me manually installing them always worked..
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] xcelsiussx:
Installing work for me too. But the app not work and have constantly crash. :(
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] mj084:
Maybe the customized DPI? Set it to stock and try again...
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
Ah OK so you mean my script from the other thread not this rom! If so please, to avoid confusions, write in the other thread, will help you there, please help me keeping things clean and separated, thank you mate! ;)

Wonderful thanks for the feedback!! You did many steps don't know why i think you could follow a much easier procedure btw if you confirm you flashed rom + fix on UB and after rebooting you had enhancements working again and album and music working as well it seems the fix is fine!! [emoji14]

Will release v2 compatible with drm restoration mod soon, thanks again for helping!! ;)

PS. what about root? Fully working? With r/w access to /system?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] CAL7:
Just flashed your all-in-one. Great! Thanks!

Question about restoring from _Backup. You say to move, not copy, the files to their appropriate directory to preserve permissions. I'd like to completely move _Backup to other storage. With it off the phone, will I still be able to restore apps later (e.g. copy back to phone storage then move to the right system directory)? Will I need to reset permissions?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ogunja:
Thank you and sorry for my friend off, I wanted to refer to debloated, in which thread I can post?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
this way you'll mess up permissions very probably, you are right will add this info in OP.

If you'll do so, you'll have to fix permissions for everything you restore before rebooting, or you'll end in a bootloop. If you don't know how to do that manually, better to keep things in /system ;)

Btw remember that in case you miss something and after restoring stuff you get a bootloop, you can fix things easily entering in twrp, going to advanced > file manager, and deleting all stuff you just copied in system. After that you can reboot it will boot fine again and you can try restoring procedure/fixing permissions again [emoji14]

EDIT: I can also try to make a small "fix permissions" flashable zip if you want, to fix all permissions automatically from twrp after you restore things, during following reboot!

Still not clear to me if you flashed full rom (1.5gb) from this thread or small debloating script. In the first case you can post here, but i won't be able to help you I'm afraid as you own a different phone, in the second case please post here ;)

Thanks!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Yverson:
Thanks for keeping the all-in-one Solution for z3c :)

Just updated and as expected everything runs very smooth - great job!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Carach_CZ:
Album / checked fine, working.

Music / checked fine, working.

Camera quality / checked fine, wokring better. Less noise, better in low light.

X-Reality / checked fine, working.

Root / checked fine, working.

R/W / seems to be somewhat broken. Ad-Away cant apply/copy hosts file.

Changing permissions is glitched, but its an issue with my phone, not your "All-in-1", i assume, because i have this issue just about with every ROM. And i dont know why. :confused:

Edit:

I flashed your ROM, your "fix_attempt_one" and DRM resto blah blah zip.

Edit 2:

Hello guys can I flash this ROM straight from 23.1.A.1.28 stock rooted firmware or I need to already be on a 5.1.1 ROM like serajr's ROM ? Thanks
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] mj084:
U can flash this from a stock 5.0.2 Firmware...

Thanks man I'm downloading it right now!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
many thanks mate for your report!

I've been working all day with v2, had some problems but now it seems i sorted everything up :o

will test it shortly and then upload it probably next Monday, should be now perfectly compatible OOTB with drm mod :)

hope xperia xposed will arrive by Monday so i could include it as well in the rom! [emoji14]

Ciao [MENTION=4695495]moly82[/MENTION],

from time to time i crawl through the z3c forum to watch how far the devellopment had gone. Though i'm a fan of custom firmwares i still use my own highly debloated and customized Stock-KitKat. The main disadvantag of the actual custom Roms -the not proper working cam-driver- is the reason for staying with a stock ROM.

Therefor i was very happy to see that your build is nearly similar to my wishes and actual ROM - but with the newest firmware :good:

I already downloaded your wonderful peace of work but i need some time to prepare flashing - backing up etc.... but at the moment time is limited...

But i report if i had done it - THX for all your efforts

Rhonin
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
same for me have always used custom roms in my phones but right now it is impossible because of that bug plus i must admit this stock LP fw debloated with some changes is very nice and fast, and 5.1 is even better, so no strong need to change atm, enjoying it in the meantime :o

if i remember right from kk to lp 5.0.2 was possible to dirty flash keeping data, so actually i think you could even dirty flash 5.1 directly (but i always prefer a clean for best performances).. btw take your time backing up etc [emoji14] don't think you're going to go back though, LP is more nice and snappy than kk for me :D and 5.1 fixed most annoyances :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] mj084:
Can report here, no problems with dirtyflash from his 5.0.2 ROM to this actual 5.1.1 Firmware:)

Everythings fine here:cool:

Great work [MENTION=4695495]moly82[/MENTION]:thumbup:

[MENTION=4343903]Rhonin86[/MENTION]

If u need some help or have questions, feel free to ask me;)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] framerper2:
I know it's kind of early of me for asking this, but I saw that you are already working in V2 [MENTION=4695495]moly82[/MENTION], so what have you thought of for that version? V1 is already a great release, I can't honestly think of any improvements! :o :p
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
yeah nothing big actually [emoji14] mostly bug fix for drm restoration users (restored original album and music apps, so will have to be updated manually not a big deal), updated Google services, Google calendar replacing sony's (can't really get used to sony one, too laggy and slow!! plus to sync my birthdays it requires me to install the Google one first so i think it is time to replace it completely.. but as always it will be restorable very easily :) ), simplified all-in-one zip structure with less "extra" scripts (i did put three zips in one so at the end of the fw flashing you won't see too many additional zips flashing after each other).. so nothing vital most people can stay with first version actually ;)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ibolito:
So after a night of use (clean flash from 5.0.2 with everything wiped) and of course changing that horrific screen density (got back to 320 dpi) I can say that this ROM is fantastically smooth and snappy. No bug at all and the debloat is wonderful, the only "issue" is the network signal icon being too far from the battery icon but this is not a big deal.

I noticed something OP, you say in your first post that Xposed installer and modules are waiting in the system partition to be manually installed but after flashing your ROM they were already installed and ready to use (only had to activate them and reboot).

Great job man.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] framerper2:
Actually, there is something that is bugging me: some system apps that I don't use (ES File Explorer or some from the camera) and I want to uninstall via Titanium Backup it can't be done.

View attachment 3419069

Do you know what that is? It's not something serious, because I freeze them, and that's it. But just to tell you guys.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
with full wipe you'll everything up and running and working OOB, those notes in OP are only for those who do NOT wipe data while installing this! ;)

will try to make OP clearer :o

yes that space on status bar is pretty ugly but that's a Sony's fault :( can't understand how they do such things (situation for those using FW with 4g icon situation is even worse.. simply dramatic!! do they test things in data mode or only use wifi??? Jesus)

I just report big bug on this ROM. I Had A decrease of the intensity of the signal. Initially i thought it was a network problem but then I put the sim in another phone and I gained 50 dBm intensity . I hope you will be able to fix this problem .
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
never had such problems here, nor other people had. where did you insert the sim? in another z3c running stock sony sw or in a different phone? if that was a different phone, why this should be rom related?

to determine if it is rom related, you must test in sony stock and compare with this rom. i don't think you'll find any difference though, as this is stock sony just debloated...

I tried my sim in iphone 4. I now flashed slim rom and inform of the situation.
