Cheers guys is it beer o clock yet [emoji13] [emoji482] lol
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] omnomnomkimiiee:
Sooo, layers support in the works or is it going to be CM Tengine that's going to be implemented ?

Congrats on the affiliation !
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
It will more likely be layers
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
Looking for some feed back from the current build, be nice to see how the ROM is performing for the users. Cheers
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] laidbackcloud:
Jenkins its pretty good, way better then cm12.1. The only problem I had was google play services kept on crashing when tune in radio was on. I am really liking it. When can we get ota updates on these devices?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
Cheers for your reply, I don't use intune radio but I have looked at the reviews and it says on some comments that its crashing etc. Maybe its the app having issues and not ROM related. OTA updates I'm not sure atm has Slim been going though a lot of changes recently if your keeping up with the news on their site or via G+. Thanks
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] tjengo:
Almost perfect ROM ;) From time to time Bluetooth is suddenly deactivated. No chance to turn it on but restart.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
I don't really use Bluetooth what device's are you connecting too? I'll look into the issue during the week. Thanks
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] tjengo:
Bluetooth connection to my car and sports watch.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
Yeah I think that was an issue in kk too if I remember it disconnects after like 15 minutes something like that.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] tjengo:
I have no problem with an established connection. But when it tries to connect I wonder it doesn't because Bluetooth is off.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
Does CM have this issue?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] tjengo:
Idk. I'm going to flash and report back. But it takes some time [emoji12] issue happens not that often (maybe 2 days)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Burakki:
I love this ROM , it is fast and stable . Even the battery is not bad . It would be great to have again the file manager as in past years , maybe even a cpu manager .. In addition to the problems already known I point out rare crash of telegram and whatsap. Thanks for your efforts! ;)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
Slim do have a file manager in the works but I use ES file manager that's always been a good app and a lot of people you kernel adiutor. Some crashes on play store apps ain't always ROM related but down to google services. Cheers for the feed back also.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] tjengo:
Back to slim. CM has some strange behavior (phone switched off during call, rebooted during call). No problems with Bluetooth but couldn't really test due to the call issues.

Anyway, using slim again ? and thanks for your efforts.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] xanthic42:
Could someone post or pm the installation instructions for me? The buttons on the support website do nothing on firefox/chrome (Linux or Android) even with all addons disabled.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
Slim haven't updated their site in certain areas yet, the installation process is like any other flash ROM with gapps, you need unlocked bootloader first too.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] laidbackcloud:
Hey Jenkins,

When are you releasing .08 beta for this device?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
Yeah should be later today
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
New build now up will update thread after work.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] loopguru:
Had some trouble installing on D5833, network detected only after reboot, was unable to see 'advance reboot' in developer option, am i doing something wrong?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
Go into Settings/Security Advanced reboot option
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
New build now available enjoy!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ralrra:
Hello jenkins,

great work! Always loved slim roms and installed 0.8 2 days ago. Just see 2 major bugs: extrem heating during usage of the device after some minutes of usage. And clock shows always 15.12.1970after reboot.

You fixed the heat problem?

Thanks!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] AnGrY sCoTsMaN:
Damn that was quick! installing now cheers.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
Yeah was a kernel update issue I reverted so hopefully fixed the CPU, let me know how it goes cheers!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] loopguru:
Boot loop

Not working on my D5833, gets in to boot loop, clean install with TWRP wiping cache,dalvik,data. What could be wrong? Hope it supports D5833.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
Have you fastboot flash boot boot.IMG via terminal???
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] loopguru:
Flashed through flashtool. Other ROM is working well using the same method.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
No issues here from a clean install. Have you tried downloading again? might of had a bad download.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] loopguru:
Will re download and update you.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] loopguru:
Sorry friend not working for me, after re download also, may some minor issue with present build because previous build was working anyway thanks will try it later.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] fratzika:
I flashed it via TWRP and it worked like a charm. I actually think that the battery is a bit better than 0.8 version.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] loopguru:
what was your flash process via TWRP can you please explain what have you wiped before installation. You went for advanced wipe or factory reset option.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] fratzika:
Wipe system, data, cache and dalvik. After that just flash the rom and gapps and you're good to go.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
Dunno why your having a issue seems to be fine with other users, I'll make a build later and upload to another file sharing site...
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] laidbackcloud:
I tried to flash the latest upload and twrp was giving me a "zip is corrupt message".
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
There is nothing wrong with the upload, if people are getting issues with flashing its normally down to downloading. I have just downloaded via chrome app and flashed with no problems
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] laidbackcloud:
Your right. The browser sucks on this phone,vit cancels all my downloads. I used chrome to download zip.

When does this come out of beta?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Burakki:
This rom is outstanding . Even the battery life is not bad . The only drawback is that the device heats up a bit.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
Cheers for the reply, I'll hopefully be making a custom kernel as a extra for the Slim build called SlimCore when I get time
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
Possibly soon but even though its says beta its pretty much stable
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ralrra:
Hello Together,

my feedback after 2 days use:

-very good Battery life (it says now 6 days and but i not used it to much)

-Clock bug still existing after some reboots, not always, date is set to 15.12.1979 and time is set to current time+2h

-it seems that the display is not reacting so smooth like in stock ROM, you need to "press" it a little bit more

-causes somehow problems with keyboad app "swiftkey" here strong heat and battery drain, after deinstallation of swiftkey gone

-Camera app is scrap ( i know i can install any other but "open camera" is a lot better and also open source, so why not use this as a default?)

-Strange behaviour, some apps can not go to internet in mobile network mode but in wifi (i use AF Wall but actually even if i turn of AF Wall still the same behaviour, some apps can go to internet, some not, but maybe its an other LP feature?)

-Still on testing with bluetooth...

But in general very stable, smooth, nice and slim(!), was worth to open the bootloader for it ;).
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] AnGrY sCoTsMaN:
Your negative feedback is obv down to the user.. I have no clock bug.

I use SwiftKey also and have no heat or battery drain issue.

Preinstalled camera app is OK as far as camera apps go, as you said better ones are available but jenkins can only include apps that are "approved by slim" as this is official release!

Not experienced any of the WiFi/ data sh#t you talk of.

Cheers ?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] AndroidenKalle:
Hello,

I had the same problem. Check your APN.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ralrra:
Hi AndroidenKalle,

that fixed it. Thanks a lot!!!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] sm4tik:
I can confirm the "clock bug". It gets corrected after only a few seconds after boot though, but usually WhatsApp is fast enough to complain about the wrong date & time. I've not had other problems caused by it and even WhatsApp recognizes the correct date after opening it once, so it's not really an issue but rather a minor annoyance.

Thanks for the rom btw. Been running it for more than a week and everything's been smooth and nice. I do miss a few features from crDroid that I was using earlier, but ofc this is not an issue with the rom!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] loopguru:
Got the reason of bootloop today its xposed which is creating problem with all the latest builds , how can i resolve it any suggestion.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ralrra:
Guess you tried this one or this one from XDA?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] loopguru:
Yes i tried everything and its only latest builds probably after 5th October releases causing problems, tried it with two ROMs and result is the same.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] bogdanpop74:
Hi, the camera work ok? the picture is ok?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ralrra:
Hi bogdanpop74,

camera works good. On dark pictures you see noises but for me it looks actually not more worse, than with closed bootloader and DRM working. Results seems also a little bit depending on the camera app.

"Open camera" and "camera mx" make good pictures for my impression.

Unfortunately the new features of Android 5.1. camera API is not fully supported, as far as i know from Sony (so its not ROM dependend). So no control e.g. over exposure time.

I also see an active app named "camera workaround", its from cyanogenmod but don't know what its exactly doing.

And some apps don't shoot a photo with the hardware camera button, only with the displaybutton. But not figured out which one does it correctly or if its just a setting i missed.

Just tested it once more, somehow if you press the key fully down (over the first "focus" step) it asks for an additional app for this action. So at least I can not shoot a photo with the hardware button. I can start an other camera app or stay in the same, it never shoots a photo.

Might be a configuration problem?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] laidbackcloud:
Hey Jenkins

Are you working on slim marshmallow?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
Possibly when device updates are made but not atm
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] sm4tik:
I just figured the "clock bug" is caused by my screwed up hw clock and I've not found a solution/fix yet. If anyone has a clue, please let me know. Maybe it was just a coincidence that it happened at around the time when switching to SLIM.

edit: [MENTION=6982160]ralrra[/MENTION] can you tell me details of your setup? Recovery, custom kernel, etc? I did some tests yesterday and the only way to get the clock back to normal was to flash a stock ftf, but after trying to reflash custom rom & kernel (carbon & K12 with multiromTWRP) the clock reverted back to the 70's. Any additional info would be appreciated hunting this thing down.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] ralrra:
Hi sm4tik,

actually i use nothin special. Recovery: TWRP 2.8.7.0, Kernel is the standard: 3.4.0_SlimLP_1.8, Rom: 0.9 beta

Interesting fact for me, under 0.8 i had regular problems with the time if i set the option under settings>>date&time>> "get time from network" and "automatic timezone". If i disabled that and set date and time manually, I had no problem.

Under 0.9 I faced the same problem but just in the beginning. Don't know why but after some time running (I would say 2-3 days) I could even set "get time from network" and "automatic timezone" and had no problem since more than 2 weeks.

Little bit strange...

[MENTION=535343]all[/MENTION]: by the way, my camera button is not working correctly - seems independ from the camera app i use. If i press it half i can focus - as usual. But if i press it complete, then it asks me for a app to "finish this action" and doesn't matter if i choose the current camera app or another one, no picture is taken, only focus.

Is this a problem with my settings?

Thanks!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] laidbackcloud:
Jenkins,

Are you still updating this?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jenkins-84:
Not updated Z3C tree for M on CM etc yet, plus I'm working on concept ATM too.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prat1k:
Hey guys, I have LG G2 VS980 running custom T-Mobile ROM for a few days now. Today I tried setting up Android Pay and it gave me an error, stating "this device doesn't seem to be an android". So, I looked around and figured out that one has to TEMPORARILY UNROOT the device by unchecking the "Enable Superuser" box in the SuperSU>Settings, then set Android Pay cards up and then again check "Enable Superuser". The steps would be more involved for Nexus devices, which would need locking the bootloader (use app BootUnlocker) > uncheck enable superuser > set up cards on android pay > check enable superuser > unlock bootloader.

This is where I got this information from:

http://android.wonderhowto.com/how-to/get-android-pay-working-rooted-device-0164604/

Admins, sorry if this is a repeat information or not in the right place - I tried looking for it in the forum and couldn't find it, so I thought this info might be helpful to some.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hassanmahmood:
I would really appreciate assistance.

I followed the steps in http://xdaforums.com/xper...8-pre-t3205929 and my phone will not start.

I don't currently have the ability to try flashing an FTF but I will be attempting to do so once I get home from work - I will try flashing https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347818113.

Prior to having this issue, I had a fully rooted 5.0.2 that was fully functional.

Will I need to first install Kitkat to root my phone or will I be able to flash the FTF and keep the existing root? I could follow http://xdaforums.com/xper...5-0-2-t3094094 instead?

If someone could give me a quick guide as to what I need to do at this point to have fully functional root again, I would really appreciate it.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Klaos3000:
Unlocked or locked bootloader?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hassanmahmood:
Locked.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] tnthd2:
I just had exactly the same problem with the same rom - really a waste of time. Ended up downloading through Xperifirm and building both 4.4.4 and 5.1.1 roms myself. Wasted a lots of time restoring lost data also.

You have to go back to Kit Kat, install dual recovery then flash the latest prerooted Lollipop. Just use the more tested roms for C6833 if you can't build one yourself.

---------- Post added at 01:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:05 PM ----------

You can also just flash the stock ftf without having to wipe all the data, in order to back up or recover everything you want.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Till-Kruspe:
Can you show the step of solving this problem.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] tnthd2:
There's already thread with detailed guide for rooting 5.0.2 (in the OP also):xdaforums.com/xperia-z-ultra/general/guide-root-z-ultra-stock-lollipop-5-0-2-t3094094.

There's also a better instruction here: techbeasts.com/2015/04/18/root-xperia-z-ultra-c6802-c6833-c6806-14-5-a-0-242-5-0-2-lollipop-firmware/

For rooting 4.4.4, just install the NUT's dualrecovery which will root it, no need for a separate step. For 5.1.1, if you want to build the flashable zip, get the ftf from the androidhost link above, or use Xperifirm.

So here are the steps:

.Download the 4.4.4 ftf (for C6833 will work) and flash it using flashtool.

.Install dualrecovery using the install.bat.

.Get a tested prerooted zip for 5.1.1 and flash in TWRP.

.Or download stock 5.1.1 ftf to build a prerooted flashable zip with PRFCreator then flash in TWRP.

Good luck.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] speculatrix:
tnthd2 is correct, you have to follow the instructions exactly.

it took me two goes flashing the 5.1.1. prerooted .zip and then the FTF, the first time I got a boot loop.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StrangeClouds:
Okay so I'm fairly new to the forums but I'm somewhat knowledgeable when it comes to rooting and flashing custom Roms.. At least one the Galaxy S3. So I now have a note 3 and I'd like to root and install a custom recovery and then from there a custom Rom after a little more research.. Because.. Eff touch Wiz. Now I got the note from a friend and it's been fully updated knox hasn't been enabled but has been fully updated and I believe the same thing for the security policies. Now this is where my question comes in I found a method on google (galaxynote3root.com) to root and install the recovery I just wanna know if anyone can confirm this method is safe with the new updates and what not? I'd rather not brick the phone obviously lol anyways the phone model is sm-n9008w unlocked but was a Rogers phone.. Android 5.0 stock firmware and recovery knox 2.3 any help would be appreciated
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Which note 3 do you have? Are you sure it's not the sm-n900w8? Depending on the ROM you install, you may need to update to the latest bootloader and modem.

Edit: read your post again. Since stock LP is on the phone, Knox has been installed and the phone would be running the doc4 or doh1 firmware.

The simplest way to root would be to install TWRP and flash supersu from TWRP. You're going to trip the knox counter from 0x0 to 0x1. Also, make sure reactivation lock has not been enabled.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZenithHammerhead:
Can anyone put up a version of it for me? I flashed SandyKernel, and now my device lags out every 10 minutes. I've tried flashing both OOS 2.0.1 and 2.1, but I have twrp, and it seems to be having issues with the naming of the device.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArkAngel06:
Are you flashing the full ROM or OTA? Use this thread here

https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/oneplus-2-stock-rom-collection-updated-22-09.347627/

You should be able to flash full roms, but if you're rooted you can't flash OTAs. But TWRP shouldn't stop you from flashing a full rom.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZenithHammerhead:
Yes. That is where I got the full images. Like I said, TWRP is giving me an issue because it has not been updated to match the correct naming scheme of the device.

I still need the stock kernel..
