You are asking regards a custom rom, this means you have an unlocked bootloader.

*I have very little know-how on this topic, so I am only experimenting using you as a guinea pig. The custom rom thread would be better, but anyway, here goes:

With root available, use Flashfire (Play Store) and flash the TWRP image from here:

https://dl.twrp.me/z3c/twrp-3.0.2-1-z3c.img.html

**If this works, let me know,

Hi... Trying now, but how do I check which partition twrp installed on?

---------- Post added at 05:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:53 AM ----------

The z3 compact doesn't have a recovery partition, so even if I install it using this method, It will either be installed on boot or installed on system

Sorry, can't, flashfire says no compatible partition for recovery IMG... I'll try asking in general q and a

Tried that already.... :( it installs on boot partition and when I turn on the phone, it boots only into twrp, not android.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] panzerox123:
I HAVE TWRP WORKING!!! Ofc you need an unlocked bootloader.... This seems to have installed on recovery partition

Download the TWRP img file from the official website. Then copy the file to adb and fastboot folder.

Rename the file recovery.img (only for ease of use)

click shift and right click together .... and then click on open command window here .

Make sure your device is working by typing

fastboot devices

, and the z3c should show up(ofc it has to be in fastboot mode)

then type

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Then you're done!

To access recovery, hold power button and volume down( when device is powered off) until you see the sony logo ( without xperia in the bottom of the screen) and you should boot into twrp.

I had to reinstall sliMM and did so using this recovery... works

Don;t worry if it gives you an error with cannot read fstab or something, the rom will still install

All the best! :D:good:

EDIT: Just realized it got uninstalled after I installed SliMM, but this is still the recovery i am looking for, because i dont have to go loooking for kernels compatible with other roms.... and its the same way to reinstall

Downloading 3.7 now!! Very Excited!

Currently on 3.4 (3.5/6) had problems with Google Play for me. Hopefully this fixes it.

Thanks again!!!

EDIT: Going back to 3.4.

Clean Flashed 3.7 and Google Play crashes are back. :(

Edit2: I fixed it! (I think).

To fix Google Play Service Crashes:

1. Clean Flash the rom

2. Set up the device and wait until the crashes start occurring.

3. Go into Settings>Apps> Google Play Services> Storage and 1.] clear the cache and 2.] all the files/memory associate with the app.

4. Immediately go to Settings> Backup/Reset> Factory Reset.

Problem should be fixed.

A.R.I.S.E Z3C SLiMM EliteKernel Magisk Phh.superuser Substratum
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] fjompah:
That's my point..

With a clean boot flashed I passed, rebooted and flashed elitekernel and failed.

I have to try and replicate that when I get back from work.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Android Development] Robot76:
EliteKernel did not fail you, but 'you' flashing EliteKernel failed you.

Flashing a kernel or even flashing SLiMM will eliminate possibly whatever you flashed to boot and definitely any systemless package..

ie, phh-superuser, magisk, Xposed or whatever...

If you read the OP, at those threads, the systemless must be flashed immediately after flashing the Kernel. And no wipes.

You need to look elsewhere for problems, as its ridiculous to blame a kernel...

EliteKernel only deals with the operation of the cpu and not your system, it is based on stock kernel, that's why we can use it on our stock rom's, gives you more I/O schedulers and CPU governor's to tweak.

Safetynet is not interested whether you want to use fiops or zen I/O Schedulers or unlimit your cpu to 2.726MHz or using intellithermalv2 to cool your device...

This is the SLiMM thread, not systemless, superuser or EliteKernel thread's

Any further EliteKernel questions should be directed to the appropriate EliteKernel thread here:

I'm not blaming anything, just stating what happened.

Removed Magisk, xposed etc, flashed a boot.img from a backup before I started messing around with Magisk or anything systemless.

Passed saftynet check, flashed elitekernel and then it failed, but now it works with hidesu.

But this is not a discussion for this thread so let's drop it.

When I wrote 'ridiculous' it was in no way condescending, or with any intention of negativity.

It was 'riduculous' as in 'Haha, you're a bastard and your hat is funny'

And not a 'ridiculous' as in 'ridicule, I end you'

I should not have to defend myself and waste other users enjoyment here.

My advice is never 'confirm' something that is only your settings (or order of flashing or anything else problem), as it is not helpful to other user's here. I understand it was being helpful, that's why I let it slide...

My problem is the amount of posts used to flame, if you have a problem with me, please Pm me...

3.3 to 3.6 seem to have problems with google play services other than stock 9.4.52.

So if you take one of them, watch out not to update them!

I got 3.7 running since yesterday (flashed 3.3, factory reset, then OTA >3.4, >3.5, 3.7).

So far it's running far better than anything before...

I'd recommend 3.7 with native play services 9.8.78 (personally I had never problems with play service crashes or GPS stuff or anything).

Full wipe and install 3.7. Do not restore system data just restore all apps with data using tb. I don't experience any FC's in 3.7.

SOLVED issue with cpu governor

Hi, I found the cause of that problem.

It wasnt applications that I removed, or Xposed framework, but bootanimation that cant be disabled (which is beed done by renaming binary file: /system/bin/bootanimation)

Even in stock Marshmallow CPU Governor is "Performance" during boot, but then it is changed to "Interactive" and most probably it is initiated after finishing boot-animation.Hi, I found out that the problem occur when I disable boot-animation which is done by renaming /system/bin/bootanimation binary file (in Android 6.0.1)

You can help yourself by selective removing lines from file /system/etc/init.qcom.post_boot.sh, where Wajk put all google service related tuning.

That's why I personally still prefer Sony stock roms over slimm roms. :)

I mean, it's really great that [MENTION=448664]Wajk[/MENTION] develops his slim, debloated version of the stock rom and adds optimizations where possible.

But IMHO all basic functions and features of the original rom should still work. It's just not worth removing them from the slim rom, since they only need little space of the rom and don't make it "fat", as some of you on this thread now might answer. On the other hand, there's enough Sony and 3rd party bloatware that's really worth removing and that doesn't cut the basic functionality of the rom.

Don't get me wrong, I'm following this thread since a couple of months now and it's really interesting reading. But I got the feeling that some of the optimizations simply overshoot the target.
