Guys, there is a second method of installation. Steps:

1- Wipe (full): cache, dalvik cache, system, internal storage, data.

2- Flash SlimmROM

3- Reboot system (Will happen bootloader)

4- When restart, enter the TWRP again.

5- Flash SlimmRom again, but without WIPE

6- Reboot system.

Hmm, I'm trying to apply the Full 1.1 and I'm having issues.

Currently on Sony marshmallow concept

Reboot into TWRP 3.0.2-0

Backup all

Wipe Cache\Dalvik

Install D5803_23.5.A.0.570_R3D_SLiMM_1.1.zip

(My phone is D5803, according to settings)

Error during install "Failed to mount '/system' (invalid argument)

Any ideas?

*edit*

Now I'm getting the same error when trying to restore my backups.

Not sure what I did, but this is fun.

Installed Slimm 1.1 Successfully, everything is working great.

wajk, have you noticed how much the wifi range has been reduced in marshmallow
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] jrbmed08:
Thank you so much for this!!! I was about to take the nuclear option of flashtool/KitKat/re-root etc. but really didn't want to wipe and have to reinstall again. The toggle app made USB debugging possible and I was able to use the method described here to reinstall TWRP:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66232237&postcount=364

Then from there I flashed 1.1 and all is well again, at least for the moment. I'm not sure if recovery will "stick" now or if I'll have to run the install.bat every time, but at least it's here now and I have 1.1 with dev options working.

Perhaps this info should be added to the OP since recovery is not persisting for a lot of people who flashed 1.0 and lost access to developer options?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Kurodax:
I can confirm this will work, i just do it.

Anyway, don't try to convert your sd card to internal storage, that fuction has error and will corrupt your sd card.

seem like this rom also doesn't have kernel that support partition, i try to use link2sd but have mount error all the time. Please add this.

Why do you need these apps when you have stamina and doze?

btw [MENTION=448664]Wajk[/MENTION], the Rom is blazing fast. No more memory management issues. It basically feels like a new phone. Thanks buddy!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] khalisz:
Stamina mode is not more the same as before under LL. Because of Doze. :)

I use then to prevent battery drain, doze is not perfect yet as has been Stamina under KK & LL.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] rakzztar13:
Install OTA version.

Everything goes perfectly well.

Still no problem encountered
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Robot76:
Because they almost double my battery time, and are a million times better than stock.

And why wouldn't I not want battery hungry draining services to vacate the phone until in actual use. And at no disadvantage whatsoever.

Push services work with greenify, so all communications are received.

Ice Box is fully automated in system, I only but need to open the app as normal without any latency. (Can create an Ice box widget for an app and change the icon for the desktop if desired)

Question: Any difference flashing this rom from TWRP 2.8.7 or TWRP 3.0.2?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Robot76:
[MENTION=448664]Wajk[/MENTION], thanks for making our phone relevant and extra awesome in everyway!!!

Pure paradise, plus a man of value as gives added value to everyone with better tools for our daily needs and budget.

Flashfire is awesome isn't it, my first time using it. I flashed twrp recovery with it, as this kernel is newer than advanced stock kernel. So was worried about loss of recovery.

Wow Chainfire is makes good stuff.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Stoffl_:
Something I just noticed, ever since 1.9 my speaker volume during calls was unusually low. I had to flash one of the sound mods to even be able hear the other person in moderately noisy surroundings. Or use the handsfree loudspeaker function.

With Slimm 2.0 and Dontbelievestereomodd-mm-V14 it's MUCH improved. Since I doubt the V14 of the mod is that much louder than the V10 I had to use on 1.9 it was probably a quirk of the 1.9 clean flash.

tl;dr

Phone volume much improved in 2.0. :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] BENETNATH:
thanks, will wait for some feedback on battery life and move on 2 (1.7 at the moment)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Robot76:
I believe it's more battery efficient, not tested yet, BUT, it's charging a lot faster than normal, so would assume so, plus it's way smoother as Wajk indicated.

Do you have an app that stops the media scanner from working?

I had the same problem that files on my SD card weren't being picked up by the Sony Music app.

Try settings/apps/show system apps, find Media Storage, Force Stop, Clear cache, Clear data, restart phone, wait five minutes.

This Media rescan app is very helpful and even gives you a shortcut to the Media Scanner properties so you can perform the above task.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] mario55555:
I downloaded and installed OTA, now I don't have issues with it
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] munted:
I did an OTA from 1.7 to SLIM 2.0 but had an error message show in the notification bar saying, "Not enough storage for the system. Make sure that you have 250 MB of free space and restart."

I tried to reflash SLIM 2.0 again and wiped dalvik cache again but it was still there even though I had almost 4GB free on my internal and 8GB free on my SD card.

So I did a factory reset and full flash and that got rid of the error in case anyone else has that problem, I'm on a D5833.

Thanks very much for your work Wajk, everything looks good so far now that I've done a factory reset and full flash.

thanks for your hard work Wajk

guys is not clear to me exactly the steps to flash

so im now on slim4.8 and im tempted to try 2.0

i usually make full wipes when i flash a new rom, but im not clear about the recovery

can i flash from 4,8 to 2.0 ? and if i dont like it can i revert to my current backup ? or there will be an issue with recovery ?

do i need to flash updated recovery first ?

can some one put some dumbed down steps for flash ? i mean step by step...

thanks
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Didgesteve:
Factory reset, wipe dalvik/cache, flash rom

Restore TWRP data after first boot (only data).

Make a TWRP backup of your 4.8 build (onto your micro sd card!). Download 2.0 and put it on your micro sd card, not internal storage.

From within your 4.8 build trigger a factory reset - settiings/backup & reset

Go into recovery wipe cache/dalvik, then flash 2.0 rom, reboot.

Restore just data from 4.8 after first boot.

If you don't like the MM build you can still go into recovery and restore all of 4.8

[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Didgesteve:
A couple of people have come back to the thread saying that they lost recovery after first flash, don't worry, instructions here

You can't put MM compatible recovery on before MM, so flash Slim first and then push recovery from your PC if you get stuck.

TWRP 3 is backwards compatible with your old backup, so you can go back to your 4.8 backup and reflash if you want.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Robot76:
I'm no expert, there is an Xposed app for this, but it's ugly and buggy as hell with limited results for me.

I'm not sure what Android stock navbar icons look like, and we know many themes change the look of the icons too, but I like using layers to change them. Marshmallow is layers compatible, actually developed by Sony (I read)

You can look at 'Navigate - Layers Theme', from the play store, if you like what you see, then you'll need go install 'Layers Manager' first, then install 'Navigate - Layers Theme'

This has known to work, but if you want to experiment with layers further, and you mess your system up or experiance bootloops etc., then via twrp, Mount system, use File Manager, delete all the files in /system/vendor/overlay/

(you can also search previous posts here for "layers' too, for further details)

On previous versions of slimm problems began with gem Xperia xposed module (some of the settings didn't work).

[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] awojtas:
GravityBox [MM] v6.1.4 works fine for me, though it crashes on the first opening (just open it again). Some changes need a restart to be visible.

GravityBox can do many similar things to Xperia Xposed module by serajr, which doesn't appear to have a MM update yet.

It's the new "soft charge" option. Limits charging to somewhere around 90-95% to make your battery life last more years, but you get less battery runtime as a result.

To turn it off go to Settings > About phone > Status > Charging optimization

One apple a day keeps battery drain away

The following straightforward solution worked for me: (Only needed to boot into Recovery once!)

- Boot into recovery (TWRP) and backup the Data partition

- Do a factory Reset

- flash 1.9 full

- flash 2.0 full

- At this point you can flash additional files (e.g. boot Animation)

- restore your Data partition

- Wipe Dalvik & Cache

- Reboot into System

First Boot takes a while :). After everything was done Battery usage in 7 hours (over night) from 67% to 65%.

I had to boot several times for right version to be shown in settings.

thanks!

no worries about the patchlevel, was hoping Sony added the latest once already :rolleyes:
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] TheLebowski:
Hey there,

for my understanding all apps and settings are stored in data partition. Restoring that partition works for all user apps and their settings.

Since i am not into xposed i do not know if it is a system or user app. To be safe i suggest you to use Titanium Backup to backup your specific apps and settings. You can Restore those apps later but i can not guarantee that this versions are still compatible with the new Rom. Perhaps someone else can help you out with more detailed information about xposed and fresh install. Fresh install wipes out system partition. In that case all adjustments (Permissions or modified system files) have to be done again.

data partition

i quote from Android Partitions Explained: boot, system, recovery, data, cache & misc

"Also called userdata, the data partition contains the user’s data – this is where your contacts, messages, settings and apps that you have installed go. Wiping this partition essentially performs a factory reset on your device, restoring it to the way it was when you first booted it, or the way it was after the last official or custom ROM installation. When you perform a wipe data/factory reset from recovery, it is this partition that you are wiping."

I hope i helped

The Lebowski
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Robot76:
Everything is in Data.

The only ones that are of not, are the apps that 'needed' to be flashed using recovery, for access to system, but they were removed anyway by flashing a rom, as a rom wipes system.

There are a few rare, exceptions, app's that will ask you upon opening, root access, and/or to install a service into system, and then ask you to reboot, but all things such as settings will also be in Data...

No fix and very poor signal even outside with clear sky after ten minutes or more. I tried all the apps and the gps.conf trick but nothing changed.

At the end the solution was going to service menu *#*#7378423#*#*, select Service tests -> GPS -> Purge assistance data and then trying the gps test, after that finally GPS started to work fine as usual.
