#1 it seems I never had that, and I use only 2g/3g... never enabled 4g here.. btw now I'm on KK so can't try to reproduce it sorry... will try in KK and confirm if there works fine (very similar debloat) and report. just to be sure, you mean you have the problem when 'WCDMA(preferred)/GSM' is selected in settings > other > mobile networks > network mode? (I always have '2g only' or '3g only' here). if you have any xposed modules installed, did you try disabling them and rebooting? or any app installed that could interfere with data connection?

#2 are you using gravity box? and maybe you enabled turn on with proximity sensor? it seems to me the same problem I had when I enabled that option in the past... otherwise wouldn't know, wake up always worked fine here (but I always used DT2W ;) )

as suggested already, remove it with another file manager.. it is in /system/app ;)

Hi, I was on v3, and made a clean flash to v4.

Now I can't download any media in whatsapp, I can't see any videos in snapchat etc. I think these errors are related to the SD card, but the phone recognises the card and all its content inside.

Maybe you know how to solve this error?

Thanks in advance, great rom aside that.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
hope you didn't wipe the internal card too via TWRP??
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] systemallica:
I only wiped system, cache, dalvik and data, from the advanced wipe menu in TWRP.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
strange it seems the same problem I had when I formatted the internal sd card via twrp, operation that messed up completely the permissions on my internal sd (had to start over from the beginning again flashing a stock FTF via flashtool etc etc to fix that)

can you create a folder in the internal sd card with a file manager? and delete something from it?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] systemallica:
Yes, I can create and delete things using Es File explorer. This is so strange .-.

I think I'm gonna reflash v4, to see if something went wrong during the flashing process.

Edit: reflashed, still nothing.

Edit 2: I fixed it, I had to use the ftf file and reroot etc, but I got it working finally! Sorry to bother, the ROM works fantastic :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] komixda:
[MENTION=4695495]moly82[/MENTION] You can check if the camcorder will work in V4...? in dirty flash fails to start ... and I did a clean install ... and my surprise is that it also gives me error !!

Regardless of this ... this is the best rom for Z3c! Very good work

---------- Post added at 11:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:38 PM ----------

OK OK...

I returned to flash in clean install, and this time the V3 ... Along with this, as in the previous, also flashing two things: (that was the error ...)

Sound Mod v6.4 - Sony Settings - Normal.zip

Xperia_Z2__Z3 Z3C_v5.1.1_Stagefright_lib_update_patch ___ _ _ + CVE-2015-3864_vulnerability_fix

New error in the camera.

I try again, but this time only V4,,, ALL CORRECT.

There is an incompatibility with one of those two patches, I think the vulnerability ...

As always, your perfect rom [MENTION=4695495]moly82[/MENTION] !!

Can't seem to get into recovery. Ndr utils says it's unable to read XZDR.prop. Can't get into it via pressing vol down on boot either.

Trying to update to V4. I think I'm on V2 atm.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
They are missing. I had to re-install. not sure why they are removed or capped out because they are so essential to everything.

Not sure what velvet is. Can you explain?

---------- Post added at 03:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:55 PM ----------

I'm having a problem with this ROM as I did with your other lollipop ROMs… It randomly will not connect to data and especially whenever I receive a call, place a call, decline a call, and get off that call, data is not working. It shows the bars and it shows LTE is on, but does not connect. What I have to do is put it on airplane mode real quick and then take it off. Then it works again. Any reason why this might be?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] konjiki7:
Had some issues with data being cut off from apps, despite being in high service area. I have turned off mobile data turn on. .. Something on wifi.

V3 seemed to work perfectly.....any settings or suggestions?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] dev_guy:
This has been reported even with completely stock 5.1.1 and seems to depend on the carrier. Some say it's fixed with a factory reset. It seems to be a bug in the Sony stock OEM code that AIO is based on. Are you sure it wasn't happening even with V3?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Robin>Hood:
[MENTION=4695495]moly82[/MENTION]

Or anybody else? Can somebody post the Sony Contacts application? I forgot to make a backup while installing the Z5 contacts which does not work 100% on the Z3C here....

Thanks a lot! :)

[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] dev_guy:
I just switched from CM 12.1 to this ROM (V4) along with the recommended "Advanced Stock Kernel" (as CM uses a custom kernel). I did a full wipe and used TWRP to flash.

Unfortunately, I have no mobile data. And under Mobile Networks > Access Point Names I get: "Access Point Name settings are not available for this user"

The service provider is correctly set to T-Mobile LTE but I have zero mobile data (not even 3G). There seems to be some problem with this ROM for USA and T-Mobile? My phone worked fine with 3G/H+/LTE on stock 5.0 and on 5.1.1. CM 12.1.

Does anyone have any ideas? Are there any USA T-mobile users with V4 of this ROM? Unfortunately I can't leave it installed very long if I can't even get mobile data to work. I'm disappointed as this seemed like one of the better debloated stock ROMs available but perhaps not for the USA?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] konjiki7:
Yup v3 works perfectly. That's why I'm confused..... I haven't tried dirty flashing over it maybe that will give the v4 goodies with better transitions, high low and different signal types.

Phonebook & InCallUI from Z3C .546 - deodexed - \system\priv-app\
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
try to reinstall dual recovery

;) just connect phone to pc and use the installer version from nut website ;)

velvet is google search and can be easily installed from the play store. if you need also Google now recognition in all screens (never user this feature) you may have to restore velvet too in system as someone reported.. not a big trouble

google tts i never used it in my life.. and again can be installed from the play store so...

never had your other problem.. may be carrier dependant dunno.. btw try restoring callwidgetframeworkpermission in system and let me know if you fix it ;)

ps. t mobile user? if so as i said many times lp stock fw is bugged with this carrier, look around in the forum, it was reported many times. so not rom dependant

between v3 and v4 nothing big changes apart from some apps/updates so nothing should really get worse about network reception.. try restoring the apk i suggested above though and see if something improve please

and again if you're a t mobile user that may be due to the bug sony introduced in lp

think so... btw will be back to LP soon i think as in kk everything is good apart from dt2w being too hard to enable (and i need it a lot while bicycling) and in lp i remember it being more sensitive.. so may be back soon in action with lp and able to do some tests :o what a pity as kk was much better in everything else :( sony what about releasing a single fw but not bugged as hell?? grrrr

I'm sure some us users use(d) this rom flawlessly apart maybe from a sony bug with t mobile carrier, so not ROM dependent. look in the fw thread, they posted a fix (ipv4 instead of ipv6 or similar). try also re-downloading the network settings (settings > other > download settings)

also, if you relocked your bl you don't need to flash any custom kernel.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Robin>Hood:
Hey,

Actually isn't that Google Contacts? The Sony contacts is called SemcContacts or something? At least something with "contacts" in the file name.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
no phonebook is the contacts app by sony ;) not by Google
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] fluffi444:
NP! :)

Yeb - I recently tried the google contacts with google dialer and the installer by Wajk (http://xdaforums.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/mod-dialer-mods-1-0-t3115001) deactivates Phonebook.apk & InCallUI.apk and uses google Contacts.apk & Dialer.apk instead... Therefore its logical that Phonebook.apk & InCallUI.apk are the original sony ones...

But maybe its needed that some additional installed Contacts/Dialer has to be deactivated (of Z5)... This depents how they were installed - dont't know which files were installes by this "Z5.zip"

This ContactsProvider its actually "only" the storage of contacts! But Robin>Hood asked for it...
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Robin>Hood:
Weird. I flashed both and I only get the Google contacts :( While I want the Sony one.... I need to filter all the contacts with mobile numbers.

Have been looking for a way to clean up my Gmail contacts so I can store my contacts offline again (my Moto G messed it all up).
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] fluffi444:
As I said... check if you have an folder "Contacts" in priv-app... This is not part of stock sony! Be sure that "phonebook" is installed and then delete "contacts" folder in priv-app... Also "dialer" folder is not sony's.

I need to filter all the contacts with mobile numbers. - This is why I stay with sony's phonebook , also :)

If you still have problems show me this Z5 file you installed....
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Robin>Hood:
Hey,

I did that. Weird thing is phonebook wont come up, I flashed it twice already. Maybe I will just install it as a user app.

Here are the Z5 system apps, the phonebook is working, but the filter function is not so you understand why its useless to me (or you) ;)

http://xdaforums.com/crossdevice-dev/sony-themes-apps/port-xperia-z5-apps-t3204056

Edit:

When I install the apk from within android I get an error, maybe the apk is damaged? Or is it impossible to install as non-system app?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] fluffi444:
Did you clear data of phonebook already? Correct permissions of apk? Otherwise I don't know.

my Phonebook.apk is OK - just tested this to be sure (with SLiM 3.4). Works here. Phonebook.apk is from .546 as I said. One of the fist things I did was a full deodexing of stock ROM to have all the apks available (if needed).
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
Okay I just installed it so we'll see what happens. I also am on T-Mobile USA if you need to do any kind of testing.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] chemicalbuz:
Does anyone have problems with earphones? My mic isn't working, I read some people fixed it unticking the "listen in every page" google now, but since I don't have it, it might be related to some removrd system app. This bug looks to be a Sony's one, not this rom related, but it can't be fixed so easily. Any suggestions?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
for you and others with disconnection problems leaving WiFi areas or during calls etc: i clean installed v4 yesterday and as expected i don't have any of those problems.. so I'm sorry but you should ask sony/your carrier about that.. try 100% stock lp rom and you will have same behavior...

alternatively you may try a US fw rather than the European one i used for my rom.. if it will work better for you i can prepare a AiO based on US fw, or tell you how to easily do that ;)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
I never had that particular problem on any other ROM or even your KK. I had other problems on your KitKat ROMs, but not the disconnecting... Only on your lollipop ROMs. Do you have one built on the base from the US firmware?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] bboran:

[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] bboran:
really? so whats the thing that i am reading in everywhere about DRM stuff? when i install this rom doesnt it break DRM stuff?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Rhonin86:
The DRM stuff is related not to a ROM but to the unlocking of the bootloader - which is necessary for the using of a custom ROM.

This ROM could be installed without unlocking the bootloader so the DRM is still working...

Cheers

Rhonin
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] bboran:
Yes i know it but what i am asking is; in order to install this rom i dont have to unlock my bootloader? So i can use this custom rom with root and locked bootloader?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Rhonin86:
simply YES :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] bboran:
Waoow this is very good. I was not happy because of this DRM thing but forget bootloader lets have some custom rom juice. Before installing this rom. Can you guys point me a good and simple guide to prepare the phone before installing a custom rom? (for example in the first message it says working recovery required. i dont know . which recovery , where to download, how to install etc)

Thanks!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
you have to study a little more around in this section mate ;)

and btw for such questions there is a question and answer thread related to this rom, thank you

ps. this is not a custom rom, this is just a modded stock
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] bboran:
Thanks moly. I searched but couldnt find that Q&A thread about this rom. Can you please give a link?

Moly what do you think about the new firmware 23.4.A.1.200-R9C

I heard it's supposed to have increased performance and battery life similar to KitKat. Are you considering that for your next release?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] chikrron:
[MENTION=4695495]moly82[/MENTION] 23.4.A.1.200-R9C New FW please :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
pretty busy with personal life lately but if the battery is really better as they say should be worth so will probably prepare next version with new fw soon including some z5 goodies ;)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Yverson:
I did some research and this is what other xda-users experienced with the new FW CE1 23.4.A.1.200:

- NFC firmware update

- Clock widgets now Z5 like(both hours and minutes in bold)

- In Settings menu - Personalisation is now Themes.

Wallpapers moved to DISPLAY Settings

- Mic bug(Skype) fixed

- Slightly better battery life (could be a placebo)

- Preinstalled Google photos (as I did not install it before)

Now you can only disable it.(no Uninstall)

- Auto Brightness bug NOT fixed

- Stagefright NOT fixed (they even reverted alrdy fixed stuff from .580 ?!?!?!? WTF?!?!)

- Small App Browser icon updated

- noticed better performance and multitasking response (smoother ui, even in all stamina modes on / camera quicklaunch faster)

- Phone recognizes the need of auto-rotate slightly faster

- WiFi turns ON faster and connects to the network faster

Here a Guide to get the FW via PC compagion

Dunno where to find a official Changelog :/

Kitkat Battery in Lollipop as well as faster WiFi connection sounds nice :)

https://mega.nz/#!KVIE0YTD!8lDomm9_jSyorZcPSPdYxUcveeJOYDYo2VOoXPfuKgw (V5 based on new .200 fw, CE1 Europe)

...seems to be working fine here. of course too soon to speak of the battery.. D5803 only for now

ps. you need to get the whole package as it is

based on a completely new fw. to keep all your data, just wipe system, cache and dalvik and then flash the rom ;)

Changelog:

- all apps updated (Google services and play store included)

- restored CallWidgetFrameworkPermission (shouldn't be needed it you don't have call recording function but just in case...)

- some Z5 stuff (phonebook, incallui, conversations/messages, bootanimation)

- google Photos removed (it was added in latest fw)

- added QuickPic and MXPlayer in system

md5: 9888ACC9D2B427FC5FD403B8C5A6E984

will update OP later on!

Who put this together and is it pre-rooted or will we lose root by flashing?

Can't install amazon shopping UK app from Google play store. Says device is not compatible.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
this is still exactly the same stuff I'm providing since v1.. why should you lose root?

that problem has been there since v1 don't know why.. just download the apk and install it manually, it will work ;)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ricardo99831390:
perfect

dude you're rom its just outstanding it's the best I've tried out so far(best battery it is snappy as hell and many other things) but i keep having this problem with stock 5.1 based roms or just stock. everytime I try to play a video it throow me this message: "there was a problem while playing please touch to retry" it doesent matter if I am on a working wifi network or with my data plan I've tried reinstalling the app cleaning cache also data and uninstalling updates without being successful if you could help me with this it will be so cool thanks for all your help and previous support.

(i dont know if this helps but with a reboot its fixed for a time until it fails again)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
with any movie player or just a particular one? and what kind of video: from your sdcard or from the web?

btw if you have it in stock as well I am afraid I can't do anything.... ;(
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ricardo99831390:
it's with most media playback such as facebook youtube etc

btw im using your rom (the v4)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] systemallica:
I had a similar problem not long ago and I solved it by returning to stock KitKat via ftf file, rerooting and reflashing this ROM, maybe you can try that.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
Because I didn't know it was from you. I thought that this was something that you are testing out from somewhere else. Normally you post that you updated everything and then you have everything to download in the first post.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
it is the same as always, I just grabbed the FTF from the source I mentioned rather then getting it via xperifirm (as xperifirm doesn't work anymore now, that's why I couldn't ;) )

all other stuff I did as usual, mods, packing, debloating etc ;) just needed a little longer in testing because of the new Z5 stuff I added and wanted to be sure it was working fine before updating OP.. but now I updated OP as well.... :p

bye!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ricardo99831390:
so it would be:

flash stock kit kat via flashtool

root the device

flash the rom

and i have a question if im on 5.1 and i downgrade to kitkat via flashtool it doesnt brick the device?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
wait a sec so it is not only playing medias, but also for example when apps are accessing the internal sd card (whatsapp attachments and similar)?

if so yes it happened to me too, switching from kk to lp and viceversa, the internal sd got messed up. is that your case? please check if so I Can suggest you another way maybe to fix, shorter/easier ;)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ricardo99831390:
when i access videos from whatsapp the device play them correctly
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
ah ok so that's a different problem sorry :o
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ricardo99831390:
hahahaha yes ive been trying to fix it but i just cant if you come up with something please tell me thanks for answering
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
ps. battery indeed seems better in latest fw? did someone else tried/noticed? hope it won't change! :fingers-crossed::p
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Matteo Mazzu:
V5 is great! Battery needs more testing, but for now seems good :) thanks moly82!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] chemicalbuz:
Bro is the v5 coming for 5833 as well?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
Yes I completely agree. So far I think this is your best build to date. :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] burtallicus:
can i update from a rooted stock .546 directly? i have some apps that i uninstalled with titaniumbackup, but in rest is all stock, just rooted and recovery.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
as soon as a .200 fw for d5833 will come ;)

if there is one already (unbranded) let me know! ;)

of course. you can just wipe system cache and dalvik first and then flash my rom, this way you'll keep all your data. just in case of any problems/incompatibilities, wipe data too ;)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] fluffi444:
Hey Moly82!

thx for your .200 AIO ROM! Testing right now...

Looks like this is kidda "Prototype" because there is an system/app/PrototypeProtection/PrototypeProtection.apk

This prevents Antutu / Geekbench from install :)

Here is a list which apps are on prototype index:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55903033&postcount=3

xdaforums.com is also on this list LOL! Bad Sony! wtf!

blocking app (pm block com.sonymobile.prototypeprotection), or freezing and for sure deleting app would help...

I noticed this because afer ROM flash and restart both app were gone (had them on data) and a little notification came up that "some" app are removed due to somc policy...
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FlintStoned-:
Thank you for your upload. Is there any way though to uninstall nova launcher?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] FcukBloat:
you are just saying that deleting/moving away PrototypeProtection apk is safe or even suggested right?

ok thanks so will delete it in next version ;) in the meantime you guys can of course move it to the backup folder or delete it by yourselves :o

just delete the whole relevant folder from /system/app with a root file manager with root access ;)
