Why my z5 lost network signal , any have problem ?
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] EDGN:
Sorry to say, but it doesnt!

Additionaly to the Signal Loss Issue the Display Brightness is very low in that case. When the Signal is back again, the Brightness is also restored.

I guess it has something to do with Thermal Throttling, but dunno im not a dev ^^

Anyone have a problem with signals bar being filled with full white ? (mobile + wifi) Rather than individual bars? So you can't tell what level of signal it is, because it has a full white fill? Using 2.5

Hi, how can I remove the data transfer info I didn't seem to find that information on the fisrt post and I have no battery icon and everytime I try to open the 3minit app it says that it's not updated and it closes by itself... is there a way to have the Xperia X stock battery?
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] furkandeger:
Hi,

Does this rom have Sony DRM workaround by default? If not, what should I do to enable x-reality etc.? I already backed up my TA partition.
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] _LLJY:
Looks like I forgot to mention, 2.6 is a public beta!
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] sirdoha:
OMG! 6.2.2 patch will fix all issue???;)

btw, r u kidding me? it's a public beta with the "stable" label? :p
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] _LLJY:
Oops, my bad, I was sleepy when I posted it.

I will post a public version soon.
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] sirdoha:
Ok. Nevermind it. All things you made for us is great:)
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] smorgasbord:
I can't seem to get the flip cover working, I dunno if it's the ROM or just me. If it's the ROM, maybe it could be a new feature in a future release. :)
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] Samuel Wilson:
It does have the DRM fix. Just reboot it once after installation and X-Reality and other goodies will work as expected!

Good luck!

---------- Post added at 09:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:48 AM ----------

I am having this issue too. The Style Cover app and Style Cover Widget apps do exist in this ROM, so maybe a critical service for them to work was removed while Debloating the ROM!
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] furkandeger:
Tried v2.5 on E6603, cannot boot. Red LED flashes three times and restarts. Cannot reach boot animation.

OK, I was able to boot after wiping cache & dalvik. Set it up but the moment the launcher opened system froze. I tried restarting and got three time red led flashing again...

Sorry but I cannot see how people get this thing to work...
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] EDGN:
I can confirm this! No Signal and Brightness Issues with the above given Kernel from Zach :good:

Additionally i flashed the SmartemperatureX 1.3 Mod.
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] _LLJY:
It's an issue with 2.6, downgrade to 2.5 or wait for 2.6 rerelease
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] EDGN:
The Issue was also present after a dirty downgrade to 2.5

With the named Kernel no Probs so far. THX anyway :)
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] _LLJY:
Right V2.6.1 is in beta..
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] _LLJY:
Looks like 2.6 is ready for stable release, hmm

Press thanks if you're excited
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] sirdoha:
2.6 or 2.6.1?
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] _LLJY:
Still haven't decided, are u coming back from mwa? If you are, full wipe is recommended
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] sirdoha:
Thanks for your tips.

BTW, what's the features of 2.6.1?
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] _LLJY:
Just all fixes
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] sirdoha:
So it's better than 2.6. Why not releasing it ASAP?
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] _LLJY:

[Xperia Z5 Android Development] EDGN:
In that Case you should leave your Phone Stock and dont test around with Custom Roms.

What OP want to say is that you have to Wipe Data,System, Cache and Dalvik before flashing

Try my Setting: 2.6R + AndroPlus v36 + SmarThermalX 1.3. I changed the Kernel because I get the Performance Issue with the Kernel which come with ROM again..
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] albertobom:
The issue is thermal engine 1.3 and kernel auditor option thermal core control enabled. Is not an issue of your rom because I have it on Amaluna Rom when I turn that option on.
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] _LLJY:
I removed smarthermalx
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] Falenone:
There's mutiple threads about TWRP. Which one I need to get to this ROM?

Edit: never mind, found one that works

Another edit. After thinking it fell into a boot loop it finally started up, the home screen layout seems a little off, like the grid size. Can I use my own TA backup I took on it somehow or does it have all the things that are enabled with locked bootloader?

Also there's issue with brightness? It sometimes slowly goes dimmer. Which is really annoying.
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] sirdoha:
Just a small noob question: Should I install SmarTemperatureX V1.3 by [MENTION=5627933]androidexpert35[/MENTION] after installing X ROM V2.6?
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] _LLJY:
No, it causes issues, those were the issues that caused the Rom to dim and stuff. You are better off with the thermal engine in V2.6 which is slightly broken(fix in 2.6.2)but works very well.
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] EDGN:
Thats funny because i flashed the Smarthermal 1.3 Mod and i dont have issues. I wonder why.
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] _LLJY:
It depends on your usage, if you play Pokemon go like I do, you will start experiencing issues
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] Sathaineee:
I need uninstall SmarTemperatureX 1.3 . Aby know how ?
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] EDGN:
Kk thx for the info. Will flash a new kernel overwrite the Smarthermal mod?

So Clean Install again? :crying:
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] _LLJY:
just flash 2.6R, should overwrite it
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] a2000:
Many thanx!!! Latest version works great!
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] EDGN:
Dirty flash 2.6R above 2.6R should do it?
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] savi0023:
Yes.

Actually you just need to replace the thermal-engine.conf
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] Falenone:
After some time of using it.

I would like to remove that extremely ugly and buggy 3minit battery thing. It tells me to update the app but their website has 3.1 which seems to be the latest. And the battery icon is extremely ugly and ruins the aesthetics.

The device gets very hot during light use. Some web browsing + music.

The speakers somewhat sounded better with stock ROM. I could hear that "stereo" without rotating the device so each speaker plays towards each ear.

Other than that it's fast and no lag.

[Xperia Z5 Android Development] paulle:
First thank you dev for your work. I've 2.6R istalled, runs smooth and fast. The installation was a bit difficult because the installer hand a few times and I had to start from new (did a clean install).

Fm-radio is not working for me, everytime i connect the earphones fm-radio freezes and I have to reboot. Aside from this it's a beautiful ROM.
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
Do you remember, with which Kernel version it worked lastly ?

Everybody please report with which FM Radio app works or NOT works (the one you're currently using)

It's not the ROM, there was some change that breaks FM (or the loading of its driver)

Also: which ROM version has which Kernel version included ?

There is another thing (and I don't know it's me or it's related to the ROM). Before flashing this ROM I used CM13 and the file manager included in cm13, now I use solid explorer, but it didn't work well copying, deleting some times not work. Used solid explorer before on other ROMs and it worked fine.

[Xperia Z5 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
That's very helpful, thanks !

Okay, might be the security fixes that breaks it, in that case we need to wait for Sony to fix their ROM + FM Radio app,

or keep using unsafe kernel versions :(

the GPU-related security fixes should be included since a few versions, if those are indeed at cause that the FM Radio app cannot work,

it's an issue with the app (+ Kernel, since normally it should not lock up the phone),

so we need an updated ROM (or FM Radio app) and a way to figure out how this happens with the Kernel,

Thank you :)

@zacharias.maladroit Can you elaborate more on the security fixes that causes the FM app to freeze the ROM? (you can go as technical as you want) :D

For me 2.5 was not working properly : got some freeze, and one day the phone freeze and realise the phone was very very hot. So did try a clean install: same result.

Did try 2.6R with a clean install, the phone was so much unstable that taping WiFi password was really a complicate task for the phone.

End up to go back to 2.3.1 which does work fine with Supersu patch and Kernel Z5-DSDS_Sunkernel_Permissive_v253_I.1_2_12_sum_dsds.

Cheers
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] Samuel Wilson:
For me, I flashed TWRP 3.02 and did a clean install of the ROM (Wipe System + Cache + Dalvik + Data).

[Xperia Z5 Android Development] mossywell:
I had this problem. I think that the OP assumes that you know that this must be done, so it does not mention it. Anyway, this is what I did - I don't know if it is the "right" thing to do, but it worked. :)

1. Download TWRP from here: http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z5/development/twrp-3-0-2-cm-aosp-roms-t3373008

2. Boot into fastboot (disconnect USB, power off phone, press and hold up volume, attach USB).

3. flash TWRP: "fastboot flash recovery recovery_3.0.2.img"

4. Reboot
[MENTION=6791680]_LLJY[/MENTION]: is this supposed to be done for all installations (in which case perhaps it should be in the OP?) or should TWRP be part if the install?
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] _LLJY:
It shouldn't overwrite the recovery partition, the Z5 is a very unstable device. Not sure why users are having this.
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] mossywell:
Yes it is strange but at least we have a fix :)
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] Pandemic:
Why the Z5 is unstable ?? I dont get that ><"

Its mostly the Android version what it makes unstable, the Z5 is further a powerfull flagship.
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] _LLJY:
Sony does a very bad job of making 64bit devices, the Z5 may be powerful but kernel wise, it's a mess. It's one of the most unstable devices ever. [MENTION=3037651]zacharias.maladroit[/MENTION] can tell you why.

Hi guys, so...

2.6 and 2.6R are stable version for me (6633)

I have only one issue, sometimes it is laggy... After reboot I have 92K in AnTuTu, but after while of using (after cleaning RAM before test), I have between 30K and 40K. Any reason for that?

on the other side it is perfect ROM! :good: Thanks a lot!

installation process:

wipe everything 2 times (system, cache, dalvik, data)

2.6R

wipe cache, dalvik

reboot to OS

DUAL sim fix

wipe cache, dalvik

reboot to OS

[Xperia Z5 Android Development] KbaB.BroS:
The ROM isn't based on .244, it's based on .253.

The OP is sometimes never updated in his thread, so you'll have to find the latest comment with the download link in the thread.

That's not the latest kernel, this is the one:

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=99351

Browse his Android Filehost account if that's not the right kernel for your device.
[Xperia Z5 Android Development] Samuel Wilson:
Thank you man! it's weird though that the build number on V2.6 is 32.2.A.0.224 ND (that's why I thought it was based on .224 :D )
