Okay I re-uploaded without Cyberian and now I have this working for me too. Once V5 or whatever they do is out I'll include the latest Cyberian, but for now follow this to get V3 back.

For those who didn't update before now you can just update as normal I fixed everything :)

Install Instructions for those who flashed V2.5 on or before 24th Aug with Cyberian V4 included:

Go to settings - apps and delete data from Camera, Camera Common, and Video (the camera icon one) or you'll have no UI in Camera

Boot to recovery and dirty flash (no wipes of any kind) Fragment V2 full ROM and then the Fragment V2.5 OTA altered version

Flash your other mods etc as before

Reboot and continue as normal

Very very sorry it's not a simple fix. Even I had to do this :/
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] ferlen:
Hi, this rom include call recorder? Thanks

[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
No, but you can just flash a compatible one from here on XDA :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Horgar:
Followed your instructions, back now to your updated 2.5. I hadn't taken any pictures so hadn't noticed fish eye bug. But all good. Thanks again.

Appreciate stock email return. Its better than Gmail, sony did a good job with this so it deserves to be back. Thanks for this.

And glad to be following your work from the start. Tbh I came to you because of your association with pandemic but I am really pleased with your rom, since I flashed your first version I've never been on any other. I like it's rock stability and it's simplicity and that you keep up with latest version and respond to users. It's all great. Hope you're around for a while [MENTION=7144653]Dobsgw[/MENTION]. Many thanks
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
I'll be around as long as I can. Gonna be my hobby at uni :)

Still learning a few things so I'll be able to dig in more eventually but for now I can do the key changes to improve on things.

I'm seriously influenced by MWA because that ROM just worked for me from the start and now I'm part of RXSMB I benefit from some of the major devs knowledge.

Cyberian got shut down. I guess mkdmc isn't in a position to balance the stress but I'm sure they'll be back. Already working on a new camera by other devs who contributed so something else will come from it.

For now I'll leave Cyberian 3 in and I'll keep an eye on PexoCam, though I do find Cyberian much better.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
Agree. Fast, smooth, stable from the first release. No overloaded with unnecessary features, which cause more issues than benefits. Helpful and communicative developer. Keep up the good work :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] eldoggor:
How is battery for you?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
Battery could be better, but to be honest I don't care about it, since it lasts from morning to evening. I had to charge it every day anyway, because there's no way it lasts 2 days. 1-2 hours more or less means nothing :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Battery is a work in progress. I get around 6 hours SOT which is plenty for me and the same I had on other ROMs.

I always found myself charging to top up the battery to get through two days. It's kind of a myth. That's why it says "up to two".

1.5 days is more realistic and 1 day if used all day.

Its mostly down to three things:

The radios in the phone which there are lots now with 4G, 3G, GPS blah blah that just suck juice as everything like messaging is done through the internet now

The CPU which other than sleeping sucks lots of juice as the phone is constantly awaiting messages and background tasks etc

And mostly the Screen and it's brightness because the output especially under sunlight requires a lot of power.

The debloat helps battery life and the new governor settings will help a little. I find with LTE/4G there's no way to get 2 days battery as it requires huge amounts of battery.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Anyone gonna find VoLTE useful?

Successfully added it to my version of Fragment. Can be a V2.6 addition if I can make it to a flashable zip.

I'm trying it now and can add to ROM hopefully.

Only thing it requires is downloading a short cut maker from play store and manually switching the modem to the VoLTE one that's included
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
What is VoLTE???
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Phone calls go over 4G/LTE instead of the phone switching down to 3G each time. So calls are faster etc

Your network provider has to enable it though so it won't work for everyone.

Mine does so im testing. So far no good, but I was using google dialer so I will try again :/
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] golden7:
Yes, that would be cool. Tmobile has volte.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
It's giving me hell, but I've tried adding all the overlay changes to the actual apks so it's embedded in the ROM rather than all overlay dependent as the guide says.

Bloodlvst said this worked for him and he didnt get the crashing. I saw you tried also :/
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:

Alas. Still crashing.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
Just found out that my provider doesn't support VoLTE, so... I don't care about it :) But I guess some others can find it useful.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] MrBarkan:
Thanks for the amazing work. I was using Fury before , I love her battery /performance optimizations but something happened on the latest version that bugs up Instagram Stories , Snapchat, etc... so I decided to try your ROM and I've been very very happy with it so far.

Thanks again and keep up the good work!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] golden7:
I was able to get VoLTE overlays working and saw the Volte toggle under Settings/More/Mobile Networks.

The shortcut worked and set the base_volte modem software, but did not See volte icon ever.

In US on T-mobile network. D6603 Fragment v2
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] TrumpCard:
I had tried this step, but it didn't work. I got to work on another ROM so at least I got to try it.

However, in terms of performance, I was doing pretty well with your ROM and the included kernel. So I might switch back.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Okay glad to hear.

Which ROM was it that it worked on?

Sorry I can't offer better support because I can't try custom kernels myself. I will try and work it in or give instructions on how to install them once I get some more info.

Not looking forward to Android N as it won't be supported on Z3.... So unlocking the bootloader will be a requirement even if just to root the preview.

I'm sure we can find a way though. Just gonna take a long time.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] francesco_mnz:
Hi, I'm really appreciating this ROM, I just have a small issue with Camera: when I choose manual settings for shutter speed and iso, I can't adjust the "white" slider. I can select the White conditions (sunny/cloudy/neon light/auto and so), but the slider just won't work. Is this normal because of manual mode or not? Thanks.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
No problems here with that. WB slider works fine if I change the other manual settings.

It's a custom camera so try clearing data for Camera, Camera Common and Video (the one with the camera icon) under Settings - Apps and reboot. Should be okay then.

If still not is it with certain manual settings or all of them? You can also ask for help under the Cyberian thread just say it's V3 as this is the one I included.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] betalaga:
How can I enable vocal input? In keyboard setting there aren't the option and in the Xperia keyboard is impossible to enable

Inviato dal mio D6603 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
You might need Google Text to Speech (TTS for short).

You can download the bloat package for V2 and flash it. I suggest using 7zip (or similar) to go through and delete the apps you don't want and then flash it in recovery.

Just leave Google TTS and talkback folders.

Otherwise flash it all and then debloat after. There's not much in that one :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] TrumpCard:
No problems! I appreciate your work.

I had it working on Slimm, but I found the performance wasn't as good. I did a clean install and now it's giving some substantial battery and performance issues. So I'm not sure what's going on. May work on this a little bit more.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] betalaga:
I have follow your instructions but i haven't vocal input enough [emoji19]

Inviato dal mio D6603 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Installed both TTS and TalkBack to system?

Just flash the entire Fragment ADDON V2 from downloads page. This should give back the functionality you need.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] betalaga:
Ok i try this

Update. No nothing. I have flash zip and wipe cache and dalvik but doesn't work

Inviato dal mio D6603 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
As a last resort you can flash the other ADDON package and see if it comes back.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Okay worked on it all morning...

All you need is to install The Google app from play store and the option will appear
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] betalaga:
Which app? I have find Google talkback only

You have to press Xperia Keyboard

There's a toggle in settings.............
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] betalaga:

[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Hmm okay I'm not sure then. It should work now.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
[MENTION=7144653]Dobsgw[/MENTION], could you consider removing Smartcleaner, as it is useless on our devices (causes battery drain), and has to be inactive all the time?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Yeah I'll do it next update.

I'll need a new settings app with it removed / remove it from mine.

I'll do it over the next couple days when i have some time :)

I guess it will become V3 and hopefully I'll have found some battery tweaks
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Horgar:
Yeah, I agree. Every rom I've used it on just gives random reboots. I just turn it off now, think it just needs to be removed from z3 roms.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
I think I've already done it. Just removed the parts from Settings that mention and link to it and then removed the APK. I need to test etc anyways.

Any suggestions for V3. I wanna beef up the change log with some good stuff
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
Some battery tweaks and themes also customise within the rom
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] francesco_mnz:
[MENTION=7144653]Dobsgw[/MENTION] did you change something regarding brightness sensor from v2 to v2.5?

Also I wanna say in v2.5 battery seems improved!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
No nothing like that changed. What's wrong?

Okay good that's a step forward then!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
I got one: remove the "cards view" of settings :D I kinda don't like it (perhaps some other users too). It just looks cr*ppy imo. I prefer stock look of settings (Xperia Z3 or Xperia X, doesn't matter) ;)

Btw, any progress with some good camera replacement, since Cyberian 4 is gone?

Oh, an maybe someone knows: can we use these fancy substratum themes? They say it is based on sony layers, but I'm not sure if we need some additional commits or something...
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
I have seen some substratum themes. Themes aren't a huge interest to me nor am I an expert in that area. If there is a guide I can give it a go, but it might be one of those things best enabled on a per user basis... We will see.

I still want Xperia X Settings so maybe I'll put it back to default. I think its kinda cool though making it a bit different from Stock. If it's unanimous though I can change it back. (made it a poll for s**ts and giggles)

Nothing that I know of. It will be the same devs who made Cyberian minus mkdmc who is taking a break AFAIK. Keep an eye on PexoCam v9 if it ever releases...
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] golden7:
Suggestion: call recording

Also, when I have 5-8 apps that I used, and click on Recent Apps, the close all is too low, so have to pulls recent apps up to be able to press close all. Minor, very minor.

Awesome ROM. Very stable. Thank you.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] ilebed:
well you can return wi-fi icon on notifiaction bar and nav bar size :)

except that everything is cool
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
I made zips that change the nav-bar size. I can make more for different sizes too. Check the downloads page.

The wifi icon is related to SystemUI so if you really really hate it you can use a different one. Mine is a modified version of jjwrongjj's Xperia X port so maybe try that one without mods :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] francesco_mnz:
Brightness is fine, I was in a strange light room, so everything is okay thanks:)

As for v3, I'd like stock settings too (card version gives problems with some themes), and also rounded corner recent apps could be nice!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
Oh, maybe you can mod framework to add 4 tules in a row in quick settings, and increase max tiles number.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
4 tiles in a row should be okay. Adding more to a column though can screw up notifications.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
I meant 12 max (3 rows x 4 tiles).
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] MrBarkan:
At First sight the battery icon bothered me, but I like it now... It takes up less space.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Horgar:
A couple of question to you Dobsgw. Is there any point to using kernel adiutor? Will it just mess up your tweaks or can it add something? I'm using it and trying things but wonder if it just interferes with your stuff.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Should be absolutely fine.

Because of the stock kernel some stuff won't work so don't turn on "set on boot" until you've tested for a bit without crashes

I think most stuff will work because it only shows the options available. Not sure about changing frequencies though as MP Decision is turned on which is Qualcomms hot plug which already does a good job.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] francesco_mnz:
Hi, I'm posting a couple of screenshots in case anyone wonders how battery is in this version. WiFi/mobile data usage is 50%-50%.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Fragment V3 coming along nicely

Change log so far:

- Updated SuperSU to V2.78 - For now holding off updating SU

Chainfire has sold it to a Chinese firm hidng behind a US HQ (why hide?) and the implications of this company owning a superuser app are complicated, ie. dodgy as f**k.

- Updated lots of System apps to save space on data partition.

For this reason it is wise to either clean install or uninstall updates in Settings->Apps for those updated or they will exist on both system and data which is a waste of memory.

- Updated to latest Xperia Home 10.2.A.10 (Serajr X Home users need to update to 1.1.5)

- Updated to Latest Xperia Album 7.9.A.0.10

- Updated to latest G Play Services 9.4.52 (438-127739847)

- Updated to latest Google Web View 52.0.2743.98

- Updated to latest Sony Video 9.5.A.1.4

- Updated to latest Sony Music 9.1.12.A.0.1

- Updated to latest Sony Weather 1.3.A.0.2

- Updated to latest Media Scanner (under Fragment Modules) 1.0.55

- Removed Smart Cleaner

- Removed Gmail as System app (updated frequently so wastes partition space)

- Cleaned up Card Style view of Settings. No more lines protruding from the side of options

- Some Google Services optimization
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
Sooo... Is it ready? :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
How did you make the apps save data partition as I'm in existenz and the memory is 95% full even though I've moved loads of apps to sd card
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Actually I'm just trying to add 4 tiles in a row before release. If I can't by tomorrow I'll upload as it is.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
When system apps are updated the original apk stays on the system partition and the new version is in the same place on data as the user apps. I just updated all the apks in the system partition to the latest version so now they won't be on system partition and data partition if you get what I mean.

It's not just a cut and paste job as some of the apps need .lib files to work properly so you need to get them too.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
I don't know if there's a point to do that. They will stay only in system aprtition until next update of the app anyway :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
True true but for now saves some space. I do it anyway because it's neater in my eyes and I can keep track better. For the sake of moving like 10 files each update its worth it compared to the other stuff I have to do :P

Anyway I did the 4 in a row QS tiles so I guess I'll upload now. 1-3 hours depending on internet. Usually good but was down for 24 hours yesterday so who knows...
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
Is it easy to do then? As I'd like some more free memory
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Basically you would need to get all the APKs of the newer app version and push them to system in their correct folders with the same name as the folder with permission RW-R-R.

They cannot be odexed so shouldnt have a file with them called oat. It needs to be the full deodexed apk.

It sound's harder than it is. Essentially you just put the new APKs into their folders in the system partition in app and priv-app. Then when you reboot they will be updated. Just make sure you uninstall updates in settings for those apps or the updated ones will stay in data.

Try with one that doesn't matter to you and you'll see what I mean. Just make it look how it is already, but the only change is the new APK file.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
If only there was a script that does it quickly lol
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Horgar:
Good to hear, am well looking forward to it.

Cheers [MENTION=7144653]Dobsgw[/MENTION]
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Quicker than expected. Already up :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
I'll make some mirrors as soon as I'll download it ;) (or tomorrow)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
That'd be cool if you don't mind :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] trainpunk:
which theme are you using? can you share?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] eldoggor:
I am in 2.5, can i install v3 just wiping cache and dalvik?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Valor Red by Krunal on Play Store. Can't share as it is paid. Awesome Pokemon GO theme worth the money!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
You can try, but I recommend you go through all the apps I mentioned in the change log and in Settings go to Apps and then for each one of those uninstall updates so they are the original ones on system.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Horgar:
Flashed v3, working great but I cant get serajr home to work, it keeps fc. Tried 1.5 and 1.4
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
Which apps are they,I'm using existenz as you know and happy with my setup so don't want to reinstall everything again
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
If I removed all the apps from data would this affect anything
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
OK, I have a problem. I flashed v3 and stock lockscreen addon, and don't have 4 tiles in in quick settings... Also my settings are still with cards :/

Edit: Ok, flashed again without addon, now I have 4 tiles in row, but settings are still with card view.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] whalesplaho:
Yeap still dere... If yhu check changelong, yhu ll see there. He only remove tha border lines from sides
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
Mirrors:

MEGA

GDrive
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
I never said I removed cards. Decided to keep it for now.

If you actually hate it you can just replace the Settings.apk in system with either the stock Z3 or Stock X one. You just won't have the fragment modules section anymore. Also you'll probably end up with Smart cleaner again.

Yeah that's because it's done by modding system UI and flashing the Z3 system UI removes it because that mod isn't in the Z3 system UI. I will add it some time today and reupload. Just use the X UI that's included for now or wait a bit for 4 tiles Z3

I'm pretty confident I'll have time because it's like a 2 second mod haha

Done: http://www.mediafire.com/download/3eg0bf8d9gp9qh7/Xperia_Z3_Stock_UI_with_4_tiles_in_a_row.zip

Also found in downloads section
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Thank you

Adding to OP
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Installed as user or system app?

That's weird it should be 1.1.5 for the latest home I included and working as normal here.

Try it as a user app if you didn't already
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Try experimenting. Getting hands on is the best way.

Make a backup and then mess with apps that aren't important.

Then youll learn how the file system works. That's how I did it :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] wonsky21:
Oh, OK, I guess I misundertood the changelog then :)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
So which folder do I remove the apps from
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
You don't remove any apps from folders.

Put the new version of the app into its folder in system/app or system/priv-app

Then go to settings - apps and for the apps you moved to system you can tap the three dots in the top right and press "uninstall updates"

Reboot and you should have the latest version of the app as part of the ROM in system and it won't be taking up space in data.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
Which folder is the new version of the app actually in ;)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Sorry misunderstood at first.

You need to download the new version for like apk mirror or directly from play. Don't use the one installed to data partition because when installed there apks get odexed and you need it in it's pure form.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
I've updated most of my apps confused what to do next
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Where are you at now?

Replaced the .apks in Sysgtem/app and /priv-app with the new ones?

Set the permissions to RW-R-R and make sure the owner and group are root

Then reboot
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
All I'm confused with is where to find the new ones lol
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Download them from APK Mirror
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
In original post is it?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
APK Mirror is a website. Google it. You can get all the latest apks from there.

Or download Fragment V3 and take all the system apps from the change log and move them to your system partition.

The first way you learn how to do it yourself
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
Might just flash your rom lol,does it require full wipe
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Probably not but I recommend it. Titanium backup will be fine I'm sure.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
Why doesn't the WiFi icon show?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
It's the furthest right of the signal icon

Merged to clean up the status bar

It will be 1/3 2/3 and completely full depending on signal strength of wifi
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bodomfan:
It looks strange
