Indeed... Just making some people aware that there is other roms out there as the Z5p section looks kinda dead and some are not checking what's going on over at the Z5 forum...

About to give your XZrom 3.0 a test run by the way ;)
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] Nibleheim:
I actually like CyanogenMod The best but the lack of a Good working Camera kills it for me... Still no Answer on what a "Full AROMA wipe is". I don't know how that differs from a regular wipe, call me a nub but I don't get the difference and there isn't an option in my wipe options to wipe AROMA.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] -DM-:
It's just your typical full wipe (data, system partition etc...) in the case that you want to do a clean install as opposed to a dirty flash...that's about it

So if you run into some problems after an install, just do a full wipe and in theory that should fix it
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] Nibleheim:
By Full wipe you mean select everything? Having bricks a few phones in a the past I try and wipe as little as possible, and I don't want to accidentally wipe something I cannot recover from... Sorry if I sound nubish, but I think its more cautiously careful than noob. I've been rooting Since my first HTC Evo... Oh the days... 3D Cameras...
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] -DM-:
When you flash the rom after the aroma loader kicks in you have the 2 choices and one of them is to do a full wipe (clean install) and the other one is to keep your data (dirty flash)...

If you do a full wipe, you'll have to reinstall your apps and redo your settings...

You don't need to do any wipes from within the recovery itself, those 2 options will be presented to you from the aroma installer...I guess that's where you're getting confused and that it is more clear now...

There is nothing tricky to it

How to update?

How do I update my phone that is running 1.7.1 to the latest version correctly (install stock MM first? flash new kernel?) ? I finally have some free time to tinker with my device but would preferably not screw up the updating process. :P

Thanks!

Can't activate developer options

i was using the older versions of this rom earlier. and updated to latest patch 4.2.1 RomAur. after installation i went to options to do changes but, when i try to go inside to developer options it says ''Developer options are not available for this user'' .problem is i have already using my main user section. so how can i activate my developer options ? (i have already try tapping 7 times on build number etc.

Thank you.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] Nibleheim:
Thank you so much. This makes it so much clearer for me, as I kept thinking there was something else I should be wiping.

Is this correct?

So I want to update my RomAur installation AND install Magisk's systemless root. I did some research and would like to would appreciate if anyone else could double check if my steps are correct.

Backup phone

Install stock .253 Marshmallow FW via Flashtool

Boot phone fully

Install the latest TWRP

Copy RomAur to external SD

Enter Recovery

Full wipe on Aroma

Install RomAur

Install Zach's .253 kernel

Reboot

Unroot + Remove SuperSU

Install latest Magisk

Install phh's SuperUser 17 (Magisk Version)

Install Systemless Xposed

Install Magisk Manager (Must have ROOT)

Restore my TiBu backups
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] benengyj:
Ok. Finally got my phone running 4.2.1 with Zach's kernel and phh's Superuser on Magisk.

Everything seems ok but I can't seem to run the Rom Control app as it just keeps saying that it does not have root access but yet the app does not seem to be requesting it from Superuser (no popup, not in logs). Other apps like Adaway, TiBu, etc works fine.

Is there another way to disable that up/down speed counter?

EDIT: Nvm...fixed everything. Aur kernel v4 has a battery drain issue for me though...and I'm not sure if I can use the "fingerprint fix" while maintaining systemless root.

[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] DarkSilentSC:
system_server is still putting CPU usage of ~20% all the time and it's murdering the battery life.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] Nibleheim:
I haven't seen any changes or updates here in a while... If you want a Rom like RomAur with give or take a few different options and honestly I think it works way better there is RomX Which has been working wonders for me as RomAur just wasn't getting updated and I had to reboot it so often.

http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z5/development/xperia-x-rom-e6653-e6683-z5p-t3388183

I really like it and the OP is very interactive with the community and is very responsive to any problems you have.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] -DM-:
This rom is fine, been using it for months now without any reboots whatsoever...

Indeed RomX is also a good alternative, tested it a few add well, but that's a matter of preference...

I recommend using a different kernel with RomAur, zachs-kernel-playground-z5p is a perfect match, always check the last pages of that thread for the latest kernel....I overclocked big core to

2054MHz and kept LITTLE to stock at 1555MHz with nightmare governor on both and phone is super fluid, snappy and cool with great battery...
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] VSMiguel:
I was two months with this rom (4.0 and 4.2.1), was great but you het usually (99% users) in all the versions overheating and battery drain issues.

Since yesterday I flashed Moonwalker Amaluna, and the difference between both roms are too huge.

I higly recommend to do the change, will be for better for sure.

PD: if I can not say this in this post tell me and I will edit it.

Too, I saw that Aura said in september he would update his rom and is 30th september, I am not following him so I recommend people to migrate to Moonwalk amaluma or Moonbreakers, is not fun have a high qualiy phone who loses her battery without do norhing in less than 24 and if you listen music or watchvideos you have a 30ºC-35ºC phone, not fun.

Is not easy to develop a rom, but you can always say more details not only the pros.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] _LLJY:
Have you tried ROMX?
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] claesr:
Is there roms for the z5p that isnt uploaded in the z5p forum?
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] _LLJY:
Yes, my rom, ROMX
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] claesr:
Nice will Check it out ?
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] Magichp:
A little sign from Auras76 would be nice... At least just to let us know if this rom is dead or not.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] VSMiguel:
Do you know I was talking about I was not happy with Rom Aur and you are teling me to try a rom based on rom aur?

Ok is your work and seems cool, but at the moment not interested, I give you thanks for your work a lot but now I will be some time with this rom.

Again, thanks for your support may be who know I finally try it your rom and I am more excited than now.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] _LLJY:
It's no longer based off romaur
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] auras76:
This rom its not dead.i'm working on it,but now i don't have time to finish(which the childrens and work).

Will be updated,but not eta.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] DarkSilentSC:
I also found out that wiping all partitions to install RomAur doesn't really work. Viper4Android driver doesn't seem to be installing properly. Only way I can get it to install properly is to flash the official copy of the image from XperiFirm/Flashtool and then re-flash kernel, recovery, and then this rom.

Now I'm going to test this: find original stock .224 firmware file and then flash RomAur. system_server and musicplaybackservice seems to be drawing waay too much battery out of my Z5P right now, no matter what kind of tweaks I try to add. I'm thinking this is done by some sort of firmware clash between stock .253 firmware (where I started from) and .224 firmware file from RomAur.

Unless RomAur update comes out with .253 firmware.

Thanks for your development though!
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] leobiagi:
I am waiting for romaur new work!! Great auras you are the Best!!
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] DarkSilentSC:
Update: Turns out the "Volume Boost" addon was the culprit of the serious battery drain when playing music or any media of sort. Not adding that during RomAur installation reduced the drain quite significantly. Now for that system_server creeping I'm still not sure why...

Also if you have issues with fingerprint sensor hardware not available message, or youtube kept on crashing that you need to reboot every once in a while, just go to /system/etc/firmware, look for 'tzwidevine' files and rename all of them with .bak at the end and reboot. Those troubles will not happen again.

And, if you want Viper to apply the sound effect across all other apps, go to /system/etc, edit audio_policy.conf, and look for deep_buffer { }, and delete the whole deep_buffer { }, save, and reboot. You then can listen to all the 3rd party apps with your EQs.

Can anyone try deleting deep_buffer { } and try it with default sony sound effects and see if it works? If it does, then I think we have a counter argument against sony. hahaha.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] YasuHamed:

i guess its too soon to try any custom roms for xperia z5.

UPDATED: Never mind. Fixed it. Turned out I need to install the correct twrp version for the OTA rom version I'm running on my phone

I'm currently stuck at twrp step. Everything worked. Kernel worked but after i flash twrp and reboot. The logo popped up and blank screen. The phone seems to work and boot into rom but nothing showed on scree. Just black lighten up screen. I tried every single version of the twrp. Same thing happened. Every time it happened, i reflashed kernel and it booted normally. Not quite sure what is wrong here. One note, I have E6883 version and there is no twrp version for it in the provided link. I also tried to search around and indeed found some post with specific twrp for e6883 but same stuffs happened. No idea what to do next.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] Zmallwood:
Hey, love the ROM btw, been using it for many months now. Only issue I've been having is being unable to focus the camera and the images taken aren't very sharp. Has this been addressed, and is there a fix I can flash to make it better?
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] -DM-:
No such problem here...did you back up your TA before unlocking and then flashed "restore-drm-keys.ftf" ?
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] Zmallwood:
Yeah I used one of the drm key wrapper files. My camera doesn't really take blurry photos, just that it doesn't focus as well...

The default camera app doesn't work well, so I'm using Cameranextmod, seems to be the most stable app for me. I was told that the Z5p actually has a minimum focal distance of 120mm?
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] -DM-:
So you're talking about macro, yeah the minium focal distance is about that from what I read as well...

Some people are saying that ultra wide angle lenses which the Z5p uses, are bad for macro shots...

But I frankly know squat about photography...

The best way though to take focused macro shots with our device is to stay at the minimum focal distance and zoom in to get a closer shot

I took some quick shots to illustrate it here:

All pics are taken in superior auto, 20MP (16:9) with Sony default camera app

-From about 30mm distance more or less, regular blur in macro

-From about 100mm more or less with different level of digital zoom...looks pretty good
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] icaruswalks:
That didn't do it for me. In the end I went back to a stock rom to get back this function - among other reasons.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] tutti2000:
Hello,

I installed your ROM month ago on my Xperia Z5 (E6653)and it worked fine for me. Now I have a hardware failure. My Backcover isn't fixed anymore so I wanted to change my phone becaus of warranty.

What do I have to do get my phone back to stock? Is it enough to close the bootloader again and install stock firmware with Xperia Software for computer? I forgot to secure my ta partition so thats not possible to restore but I think because it's a hardware failure this doesn't matter.

Kind regards

tutti2000
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] Nibleheim:
Use Flashtool and make sure you tick the return to OOB or whatever the button is. I forget what it is.

http://www.xperiablog.net/2015/09/0...1-brings-compatibility-to-all-xperia-devices/

Your bootloader may still be unlocked but as long as it is not anything your ROM did to your phone you shouldn't matter too much as long as it's not obvious it was changed.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] tutti2000:
Hello Nibleheim,

where do I find that option? I started Flashtool and downloaded latest Firmware for my phone. Is the button on the main screen or in flash menu?

Kind regards

[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] Nibleheim:
I'm not at home so I cannot look, there should be an option when flashing with 3 boxes and I usually just click all 3. I will look later if you cannot find it.

[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] Nibleheim:
This is why we say no ETAs on XDA. Too many emotions, and too many misunderstandings. The amazing work they do takes a lot of passion and a lot of time, they don't get much for doing it so I know its hard but try and hold your excitement. :)

I love this rom but I have an issue...

Charge optimize is missing? Is this deliberate or did I miss something?

Really loved the feature and would like to have it and this rom, anyway if it's not included for a workaround to install it????

Edit: Will pay $$$ for this features addition.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] BlackstarinCBadboyS:
Hi i installed the ROM and it's awesome. Great work there! But i have a problem. Maybe someone can tell me about fingerprint? I cant put fingerprint. It crashes when i am about to finish it.. Someone can tell me how to fix it?
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] -DM-:
Clear cache and data from "fingerprint manager" app and anything else related to fingerprint and see if that does any good...

What kernel are you using?

I recommend to switch kernel, the latest Zach's kernel (v.2_6) works wonder with this rom and you won't experience that fingerprint failed message that used to creep up at times with this rom...
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
Good to see you back & working on it !

:)

It got added in later (stock) ROM versions/releases,

so it will naturally be included in the new version
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] BlackstarinCBadboyS:
I did exactly what you said and changed kernel to Zach's 2_6. But still dont work. Here's the message.

Enrolment was not completed.

Could not register your fingerprint. Please clear some space on the internal storage and try again.

I have 20GB free internal storage but i dont think that's the problem. What should i do now?
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] -DM-:
Never encountered that specific problem...just the other typical "fingerprint hardware unavailable" (which was eradicated a long time ago by switching kernel)...

Anyway, check if your sensor is OK to start with in service tests...wipe cache and dalvik from recovery...

Check if it's working on a different rom...

Now that I remember, I read something about your problem in the Z5 forum, here is the thread...they might be able to help you further if you can't fix yourself....
[Xperia Z5 Premium Android Development] BlackstarinCBadboyS:
Thank you so much for your time i read the link you gave me and they say about custom global rom except US cause in US fingerprint doesn't support. Anyway i can't find it but i believe the problem is with the DRM keys. I didn't backup before UB and now i have this problem. But it's fine i believe for the moment...

---------- Post added at 10:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:23 PM ----------

There is no US firmware for the Z5p anyway as that phone was never sold officially in that market, the only US firmware available is for the Z5 (E6603)...

So you can use/flash any other firmware for the Z5p and fingerprint management should be available...also most custom kernels out there have drm fix so at least part of your keys should be emulated (except widevine), but if it was the drm keys then people that didn't bakckup TA then flash their keys back would be in the same boat as you, which is not the case?!?

I think you should clean flash a .224 firmware of you choice and clean install this rom...some must have been corrupted along the way and a clean wipe should fix it unless it's hardware related (did you check in service tests if your fingerprint sensor is working?)

Good luck
