how is the camera, is it good?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] nikat1968:
Сamera crashes when switching to video mode.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] GNUDroid:
Yes i can confirm video issue. Tried many apps it crashes always with main camera. Partly with front camera (bad quality) googlecamera worked ... Some time ... Till next crash. I suggest that faulty video is also the issue, that one can not use whatsapp barcode scanning as needed to sync for whatsapp-web (i really miss thid working)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] nozz93:
I can't really use the camera as it's either really laggy or doesn't work at all. :/ Also as [MENTION=4643283]GNUDroid[/MENTION] said, many apps trying to use the camera either crash or can't use it.

Is there a workaround on audiofx crashing?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] prinz.z:
Anyone else has random reboots while scrolling through Instagram? I had the same problem with DU inoficial but did a complete wipe before installing AICP ROM!? Besides that, audiofx crash and camera, I'm very happy with this ROM :D
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] CmDaRkShAdOw:
How it's works comparing to 05.08 build? Much better?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Yokurt815:
Just installed latest (05/09) build and looks good at the first glance, except audiofx is crashing. Anybody knows what's the problem? Or is there a workaround in the meantime?

No. Reverted to stock rom for now.

Hi, I would like to post some feedback on the latest nightly.

One issue I had is that I was running on battery. I couldn't get the mobile data to change from Edge (ew!!). I got frustrated and sat down to plug it in and research it. Well what do you know but the second I plugged it in, LTE/3g was restored. So if anyone is having this issue please plug in the powers.

Sadly I have spent all night researching the dreaded MMS issue after upgrading to Marshmallow. There is a long thread going on Google which is pretty scary. I was on Kit Kat so this is the first time I was hit by it when a lot of people thought it was transient. I did all the fixes, I mean all the fixes. I am at the point where I can send MMS but not receive MMS or more importantly for me, short texts. Thankfully I use my Google Voice number with as many sms services as I can but some of them need a "real" phone number so I may be locked out of some accounts for now :crying: I tried: setting default browser to chrome, changing T-Mobile APN to every variety out there as well as removing all the extra APNs, clearing messaging and media cache and data, I don't have pushbullet or SMS backup, rebooting in safe mode, turning off wifi and toggling 3g and rebooting, having T-Mobile "reset" the 4g on their end (probably the same as a power cycle which I did many times), toggling wifi calling, trying Textra and checking the T-Mobile fix as well as manually toggling wifi, turning off AdAway, and probably other things that I forgot. 6.0.1 was supposed to fix it but people on the Google forms still report problems. However on other forums it seems like the problem was transient and was mostly solved. Maybe the MMS patch wasn't properly applied? Have others had this issue on the Z1C on any rom?

Another thing I noticed is that none of the privacy settings or root settings "stick" and they always ask again on reboot. I wonder if some system app isn't getting the permissions it needs and that's causing the MMS issue?

The camera is not great but at this point it's not the most important thing to me.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] SpiritCroc:
Workaround for AudioFX crashes:

- Uninstall AudioFX using AICP Extras/Various ****/System App Remover

- Reboot
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Maximuous:
Thanks for the workaround. I will try it on the latest build.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Mamayahuasca:
According to the official Magisk thread, Magisk Hide option will not work on kernels lower than 3.8. Your ROM is based on 3.4 kernel so there is no compatibility. Am I right?

If so, is there any 3.8+ kernel for Z1C which can I use with your ROM?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] DcR-Nl:
It does work 'ok' here. Device is certified in the Play Store and root check apps can't find any root binaries when I add them to the hide function. Also using the Greenify module and systemless hosts function.

The same post/thread you mentioned also states the following: 'However, some OEM backports many Linux features back to older kernels, so trying it yourself would be the best bet'. Guess that's the case for our kernel. But correct me if I'm wrong.

My device does however suffer from Magisk randomly thinking it's not installed properly. My device will lose root and it will ask me to update to the same Magisk version (v13.3), but it doesn't seem to recover and the manager will show weird errors. This happens maybe once a week. Rebooting doesn't help. It's fixed after reinstalling Magisk from the recovery again. :rolleyes: Not sure if it's the rom/kernel or Magisk, but I've seen worse.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Mamayahuasca:
You were right! I've just flashed the AICP ROM with Magisk and it seems to work perfectly. SafetyNet check passes so the MagiskHide option work. I must also say that the ROM is much better than AOSP, AOSPA, LineageOS 14.1 which I've tested before. Not only because Magisk works. For example with the old ones I could play videos trough the browser only in something like 'slow motion' :eek:. With AICP videos play correctly. Also camera works excellent even in HDR mode. You've done a really great job LAOS team :victory:.

Yesterday I've just described some similar problem in the Magisk General Support / Discussion thread but it was another ROM. Do you gett error like "Magisk : mount (null)->/ failed with 16: Device or resource busy" in the Magisk log?

Issues Installing aicp_amami_n-12.1-NIGHTLY-20170729.zip

Dear community,

I am running aicp_amami_n-12.1-NIGHTLY-20170722.zip with 2 issues

- camera which is not focussing at all - I think everybody knows about it

- loosing connection during phonecalls, which makes it impossible to use above aicp_amami_n-12.1-NIGHTLY-20170722.zip for daily use

Then I wanted to upgrade towards aicp_amami_n-12.1-NIGHTLY-20170729.zip, where I ended up in a bootloop without any chance to fix it, I even could not access to recovery, that's why had to move back to aicp_amami_n-12.1-NIGHTLY-20170722.zip.

Is there anything special I have to consider installing aicp_amami_n-12.1-NIGHTLY-20170729.zip?

Is anybody using this version, or all of you only running experimental builds shared on kockl-drive?

And which bugs are fixed in this Version? (Camera, Phoneproblems?)

Thanks a lot for your suggestions

stefan

Ah I thought this would be the official forum for "[ROM][Official] AICP - 12.1 - N 7.1 amami", that's why I am wonderung most of the discussion is focussed on experimantal builds.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] DcR-Nl:
Great.. :)

Stupid me, didn't even look at the logs. Will have a look at them the next time this happens. Thanks for sharing!
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] DcR-Nl:
Three/four days ago SpiritCroc decided to promote the test builds (new kernel) to the nightly builds. The latest reports I've read mentioned a SD card issue not present on the test builds. SpiritCroc was going to perform some magic on the build server to try and fix it. But haven't heard any results. Just read a couple of posts back for more details.

Anyways, it sounds like your trying to dirty flash to a new kernel (3.4). This might explain the issues your having. I would recommend waiting on new builds and performing a fresh install.

The two issues you mentioned should be fixed in the new (test) builds. I'm currently still on the latest experimental build from 20170723. These issues are not present for me. The only issues I've had (most are known);

-Not able to reboot to recovery

-Having to disable HW overlay when switching camera or watching some videos

-First boot no touch response

-Auto screen rotation sometimes stops working

Everything else seems pretty solid on the new kernel. :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] loiselqw:
Thx for your answer,

something I do not understand, how could a kernel change affect the ability to boot into recovery (twrp). And what do you precisely mean by performing a fresh install.

This time i used OTA update mechanism to update to aicp_amami_n-12.1-NIGHTLY-20170722.zip build. Should I use fastboot to flash boot.img and then after booting to recovery, cleaning dalvic and cache to use sideload to update the zip file?

Are there more cleaning steps I have to perform in twrp to get aicp_amami_n-12.1-NIGHTLY-20170722.zip running, and will then afterwards when a new nightly will come be able to use OTA?

And which tols are you using to backup your adbs incl. userdate?

Thx for your response

stefan
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] DcR-Nl:
First off, let me make it clear that I've never used the nightlies (kernel 3.10). Only the test builds with kernel 3.4 - available on the G-drive - so I can't really speak out of experience. Always flashed from TWRP, not the OTA way. The latest test build has been removed because Google marked it as abuse. I've re-uploaded the latest test build on my own drive. So that's that.

The new kernel shouldn't effect the ability to boot into recovery (by turning the phone off and holding the power + vol down button until the purple(?) led appears). It does however miss the support to reboot to the recovery from the power menu (when the phone is on). See official statement here; not all mentioned issues are present any more.

By a fresh install I mean, carefully following the "How to flash" steps mentioned in the start post as if you are coming from a different ROM. I don't use tools to backup my user data; read the statement in the start post about things like Titanium Backup. I think there are structural differences between the old nightlies and the new ones because of the switch of the kernel which in turn might cause issues when you restore data.

I can't tell you if the nightlies should even work, because they've had issues not present in the test build (see here and here). I also can't confirm if you're able to flash the next nightly on top of the latest test build. Maybe it's better for you to stay on the version you're running until the nightlies are confirmed working. But for now, I'm loving the stability of the latest test build so I don't mind it being my daily for the next weeks.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] ccgx:
I'm using the latest testbuild and suddenly, today I couldnt start Pokemon Go, because Safetynet checks now fails. any ideas why?

I've just updated to 12.1-20170729 and the phone seems much smoother overall, but now the microphone has stopped working in calls both in loudspeaker mode and when talking normally.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] loiselqw:
I am having the same issues by running aicp_amami_n-12.1-NIGHTLY-20170722.zip beside other issues like camera...

Let's hope that within new version aicp_amami_n-12.1-NIGHTLY-20170805.zip available in OTA, the phone issue is fixed - cause from my perspective that's one of the most mandantory features for a daily use phone ;)

I will only have time to check it on monday evening, but maybe some of you could write down your experience with lastest stable or nighly build just being launched, regarding phonecall quality, camera and recovery

Thanks in advance all giving their best to make it happen having a stable android V7.1x available for amami.

Cannot select network operator in roaming

Does anyone face problems when selecting the network operator in roaming?

After flashing the ROM (aicp_amami_n-12.1-NIGHTLY-20170805) and rebooting, my phone registers with a network provider. When I press the “Search for available networks” icon, network operators are found, but I cannot change the operator (-> “Can’t connect to this network now. Try again later”).

After that, “Search for available networks”, does not work anymore (-> “Error while searching for networks”).

Only after a reboot, I can search for networks again, but still I cannot change the network operator.

When I travel back to my home country, my phone is still stuck with the roaming network and I cannot make no calls anymore.

After restoring stock rom, the network operator selection works fine.

I have wiped System, data, Cache and ART/Dalvik cache before flashing. Did I miss anything?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Aaron Hosenduft:
After the last two builds (08.05 and the previous one) I am unable to install OTA, because the phone reboots itself into system, not into recovery, and I am unable to boot into recovery using the Switch off phone menu. The same issue, phone boots into system instead. The only way I can get into recovery is manually using volume down+power.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] loiselqw:
Thank you

Flashing aicp_amami_n-12.1-NIGHTLY-20170805.zip made my day!

Camera works great, I do not have issues with bad quality during phonecalls (switching off loudspeakers), SDcard problem could get fixed by farmatting the card with Exfat "mkfs.exfat -n "**** USA" -s 2048 /dev/sdx ".

The only issue I have is like one person before, that I could not access recovery, did somebody try to flash twrp by using twrp app? Or is it wise to wait for an upcoming nightly fixing this issue?

Did somebody already use device encryption with this build?

Problems with mobile data I could not recognize so far.

Thanks again for the great job

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] DcR-Nl:
Same issue here on the 20170723 test build after two weeks without issues. Microphone test confirms the hardware still works fine. Enabling speaker, muting and unmuting, pausing, nothing resets the microphone. Wiping dalvik, cache and flashing the same build also doesn't fix it. So far for this ROM being my daily. :(
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] jharvey208:
Do you have any other mods installed (ARISE, Viper4Android etc.) I found I had this issue with certain audio mods installed. I never had this issue with 15072017 test build (only had WiFi issue) :confused: I was also able to flash Bravia engine mods and it worked fine :confused: If the WiFi issue fix was the only thing changed in that build then I would've classified it as stable.... But for now, I'm on mx rom, no safetynet passing, no magisk basically stock android with root enabled..... :(
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] DcR-Nl:
No, no audio mods or any other rendering mod. Flashed rom, opengapps and Magisk 13.3. Enable two Magisk modules (Enable doze for Google play and Greenify4Magisk). Had those modules from the start. Didn't restore any data using tools like Titanium Backup.

This microphone issue feels like some kind of (cache) data corruption issue. I'm pretty sure its fine again when I factory reset my device, the question is for how long...

I would like to debug it but not sure how. [MENTION=6425591]SpiritCroc[/MENTION] any ideas how I could properly contribute to debug this?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] jharvey208:
Well, if I read correctly we should be debugging audioflinger which runs in the mediaserver process.

AudioRecord sounds interesting! https://developer.android.com/reference/android/media/AudioRecord.html

EDIT:

Or maybe we should start looking at if any other apps are using the microphone at the time (not that it should make a difference of course)

I develop websites so android development on ROMs etc is a bit out of my league :P

The recovery thing might be a kernal problem. It has existed for some time now
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] jharvey208:
Just done some testing and I have microphone working on build 05082017. But I also have ARISE, sony stock camera app and magisk 13.3 installed.

For me just the SD card issue to fix. I don't care about having to enable "Disable HW Overlays" as it only affects the sony stock camera, I'd rather do that than have a camera that's really blurry to use thanks [MENTION=6425591]SpiritCroc[/MENTION]
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Заневский:
There is camera api2 on the last build?

Thanks.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] jharvey208:
From my test it is, no RAW capture as Sony doesn't support it? Maybe someone else can clarify on that?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Заневский:
When I tested on the old build (from 30.07.16) there were camera api2 and raw(only on camera fv-5) but in Manual camera were only camera api2 features without raw.

For me very important have camera api2 on 7.0-7.1,1.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] jharvey208:
Camera FV-5 tells me that it does not support raw capture. But using a test app i get the results below

May be it's need change in "persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=0" "0" on "1"?

Safetynet fails

I completely reinstalled the latest nightly of this rom and still have the problem that safetynet fails and I cant use some apps (like pokemon go).

Safetynet passes on stock rom (no surprise here) and on custom lineageos/cynogenmod 12.1 (Android 5.1).

Any Ideas why it fails on this rom? I didnt install root for this very reason.

My suspicion was its the newer android version which never came offically to the device, but my nexus 5 passes safetynet with lineage 14, Android 7 which were also never offically

released on this device.

I'd really like to use this rom as my daily driver, but wont be able without passing safetynet.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] DcR-Nl:
Selinux beeing permissive might be another reason. Just install Magisk and you're good to go (might need to clear cache of your play store afterwards to get 'certified' again).
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] ccgx:
Ok, I'll give it a try.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Заневский:
Did you reboot after the change?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] ccgx:
worked perfectly. Thanks!
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] jharvey208:
Yes. It's still set today. I forgot that it was enabled to be honest and it's been rebooted a fair few times now. I'll clear cache if it's not empty and try again
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] jharvey208:
Cleared cache, rebooted, no change

Phone doesn't boot

Hey guys.

Since 0729 I can't update from 0722 because my phone just doesn't boot.

Sony logo appears -> AICP animation starting -(3 secs)> black screen, power off.

Installing nightly updates OTA and manually from TWRP.

Guess I need to wipe all my data? Or just dirty flash 3.4 kernel?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] jharvey208:
Well if the AICP animation runs then you probably won't need to dirty flash kernal.. But I'd reflash AICP and GAPPS and try boot from there and if no go then wipe data + cache

Hey Guys

Does this ROM have the Sony Camera and works well? This is my main concern.

And does it feature any other Sony apps?

Thanks
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] chris2017@xda:
Camera works fine, almost perfect ROM.

On the latest version (aicp_amami_n-12.1-NIGHTLY-20170812), I have flashed

1) Cam.zip ... https://xdaforums.com/crossdevice-dev/sony-themes-apps/port-stock-camera-nougat-roms-t3628791)

2) Sony Apps Enabler 4.2 ... https://xdaforums.com/android/software-hacking/mod-sony-apps-enabler-install-sony-apps-t3590477

3) OpenGapps

With 2) and 3) you can install Sony Apps (Music, Sony Keyboard).

For the Sony Camera to work, you have to disable Hardware Overlays every time you reboot (Settings -> Developer options -> Disable HW Overlays).

Panorama, Background defocus, 4K video, Sound Photo, Creative Effect seem to work

TimeShift Burst, Style portrait do not work.

Do not update Album (version 8.2.A.0.8 as provided by Cam.zip) via Play Store to v8.4. It will crash.

The only "big" problem I face: I cannot change the network operator when I am in roaming (maybe it's related to my SIM cards). And very seldom, the screen gets locked asking for the SIM PIN. Then the SIM PIN is not recognised and I have to restart.

The rest works fine: good sound on the phone, SDCard problem seems to be solved, Radio works, Bluetooth and GPS work. Thank you very much [MENTION=6425591]SpiritCroc[/MENTION]!
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] firestone9x:
Awesome. It looks like I finally found another ROM other than the modded Lollipops which has a functioning camera.

All the marshmallow ones I tried never had a working camera so I used dstrikers ROM which is based on the stock lollipop, really love it.

But the problem I'm facing is a sudden decrease in battery life. I'm going to revert to stock to see if this issue still persists in the case of a dying battery, if not I'm looking forward to flashing this ROM.

Update:

Does the ROM also have Sony Stamina modes?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] alex_f_k:
Nope, didn't work. Wiped everything (data, cache, dalvik, system), installed 0812 and open gaps nano 7.1 - still no booting.

Installed 0722 back to use my phone.
