The issue with MM was that the blobs they provided weren't calibrated well enough for the camera, resulting in poor focus, low exposure and laggy previews. The newer blobs fix this issue. However these blobs are only for the newer 1.3.3 kernel branch, which has some issues with the camera (only 8974, Z5 series has a decent camera now).

You're partially right, we could have had a pretty stable camera by now, had they stuck to the original branch.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
But because Sony wants your $700 every 2 years, they move to "new" branches to cut off older devices. Oops, sorry, we didn't know your Z1/Z2/Z3 cameras would stop working. Blame the Russians. But not to worry, Mr. Dumb User, cameras work fine on Z5. So, buy one. We love Open Source...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] brickhayabusa:
¿if you know that nougat or MM never gonna be stable, why you comment the N or MM threads?

You're not helping at all.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
No one is helping. As long as everybody uses Sony AOSP device trees, there will never be anything stable on MM, N, O, P or Q. And the sooner users and community devs understand this, the sooner someone may return to 3.4 kernel and JB stock camera blobs.

There is work going on to try to return to 3.4 kernel. It is not easy, but efforts are real, as opposed to Sony fake AOSP team...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] brickhayabusa:
Well, you say that and i know about the aosp fake team thing, but think, on a near future the users won't get any stable or similar updates from the aosp team and then the team can't hide than there's no any conviction of help all of us, i know your point but don't waste your time on people than never gonna understand.

I not using cm and never know about camera wraper until yesterday, it get me interesting for that. Whats problem with 3.4 kernel? It not boot with nougat? Or there is something? Sorry I am stopped any development ~year ago and now I am not in track... Do you think wraper can be used with jb blobs (ofcorse with some implementations)? Today I thinked to look into PexoCam(V8.5)(Z1).zip since there is interesting blobs but since it was not worked on my z1c D5503_14.6.A.0.368_Customized_CE4 I got disapoint on that. Wrappers is good idea! I thinked to look in that way. No sense waiting new blobs, its like waiting forewer, I no want to waste time anymore that way. No blobs changelog mean infinite look into unified kernel git changes, no want this realy, no sense. It gives total disapoint since every each new android source will produce the same disapoint and gives us the same truble and time waste.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] drakonizer:
Really? That sounds interesting. Any github links?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
In principle, hardware on Z1/Z1c has not changed, so there is no reason older blobs shouldn't work, unless there is incompatibility on Android part. When MM is built with CM trees/camera wrapper/ 3.4 kernel, camera does not connect and the reason is MM changes in /frameworks/av; framework/base; /hardware and /system/core/. So, the idea is to downgrade camera related MM things to LP.

No one who works on this has a gerrit or time to mess with github until at least the camera starts working. You are welcome to visit Z3 thread to read posts in experimental CM13 build with 3.4 kernel. He has cm trees on github. And by the way, Xperia Z3 also used Z1's JB camera blobs, because all Z3 stock roms have DRM protection, so no one can use them on custom roms. Thanks to Sony again...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] munjeni:
And it will stop working (if not allready), for example look into libwvm, look deeper into that lib and notice that MediaSourceXXX is now on nougat IMediaSource, so you can not hack it anymore - hexmodify it since function names for MediaSource is now 1 bytes longer which completely brokes posibility using it (yes ofcorse we can port old DataSource function calls into android but it makes things more and more hard), so for example thing will be inpossible for jb blobs too if dependency libs e.g. libc...etc function names (one only byte is enought to broke possibility using it anymore) get longer than one in dependency libs linked with that blobs... I realy want to swith to another hobby, have no sense wasting time with stupid phones. If I realy get plan to buy new phone I will triple check which source code these phone have, by now z1c will wait some years on my hand until that happen.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
Everyone hates open source community. OEMs do, because we provide myriads of features and new life for older devices, which enable users to keep them longer. Google hates us, because we strip google advertising malware/binaries from roms and deprive them from creepy income. But Google can't do anything about it: Android is based on Linux and if they start closing off, they'll be sued by the Linux Foundation and others for violating licenses and Google has deep pockets....
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ReznorNInchNails:
I owned 2 Xperias before Z1, M2 (eagle) and Neo V (haida) and then also a lot of Sony Ericsson devices. First one I got was Neo V (haida). This is when that crash happened and Sony had to replace their camera modules with cheaper ones... And there was the same thing we are speaking of now. Device received 2.3, then 4.0.1 which was never working good, laggy and slow, wifi dropping etc. Can you imagine to have unstable wifi driver these days? Then one guy with nick nAa decided to write a 3.x kernel that will work with 2011 Xperia devices (it was 2.6 at that time). The kernel was barely usable on those devices, even screen wasn't booting properly. And then a guy called mikeioannina continued his work, and today those devices even have Lollipop and I think M too. I mean, come on, those are devices below low end today, with 512 MB RAM and single core CPU. And this guy managed to compress zRAM with lz4 to save more RAM and made CM closer to stock with minimal hacks. Even he made a working camera driver. From nothing! Camera wasn't working at that time. The hardest thing was a move to ART, because of low internal memory. Now only things that remain unfixed are Radio, ANT+, HDMI and OTA updates (this device's boot.img must be flashed from fastboot, no way from recovery), and those are things you can live without. But I agree, newer Android releases are getting more complicated, so do the kernel.

Still, it was really impressive work. FXP also stopped releasing custom firmwares for those devices as they got old. And remember that poor Xperia SP :D

Anybody have idea from where goes these 6.0.1 blobs? Is that compiled from source? Who makes that blobs?

Edit:

One better question... since phone is qcom based which mean there is nothing sony related inside mainboard, so question is: is qcom provided to sony liboemcamera which is a static lib? I don't believing that QCOM provided camera kernel source code but not an lib or header or something that will give developers chance to make its own lib. There must be any documentation on that! Any info about that thing, or its just an mistery?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
AOSP blobs come from a dumbed down source, which Jerplea&Co gets from stock developers. Note that Sony won't even publish that dumbed down source, because if they do, someone may actually make camera work, instead of jumping from one undercooked version to another. This is no development, but rather j*rking off around code...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] munjeni:
Ok thats from sony, but I mean qcom, forget sony! Qcom made that mainboard, but do qcom have that user level camera libs/headers/userlevel_test_app for its kernel level camera? It must exist somewhere, at least there must be some documentation about that camera which is in our phones. What you think? Is it exist? At least there must be some documentation how to use that specific camera e.g. when somebody want to start making userlevel camera implementation from stretch
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ReznorNInchNails:
Well, even if board is made by qcom, camera is a module which should or shouldn't be made by qcom. So it can use proprietary closed driver (or we should say blob).

And answers to your question are here:

https://linux.slashdot.org/story/14...down-100-github-repositories-with-dmca-notice

https://www.techdirt.com/articles/2...own-github-repository-plus-bunch-others.shtml
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
You have to look in Code Aurora, but they are not search friendly. I also think that the latest Qcom camera is not open yet. They usually publish their things years after...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] munjeni:
Than old one must exist e.g. from 3.4 kernel since our phones is allready some years old. For example something like which adreno have
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] munjeni:
For example something like this http://elinux.org/Rpi_Camera_Module#RaspiVid

or

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/picamera/
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] munjeni:
Here is something interesting but 6 years old http://linux-media.vger.kernel.narkive.com/i8K77VkT/rfc-v4l2-driver-for-qualcomm-msm-camera
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] munjeni:
I'm not sure, if you look into kernel camera_v2 source code you can see on every file "The Linux Foundation". I just looking for something for example an userspace test app for testing that kernel module, it must exist
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] nemes480:
I still cannot record videos because the file what it make is unplayable

24.12. Build feedback

24.12. I install it today.

The front camera is reversing. Focusing on the back camera is a problem though. I uploaded an open camera. From the settings. Perform auto-focus on startub disable. I did . fixed.

These are what I have seen in a short time. I prefer to work on the stamina mode from the camera. My personal thoughts.

The open camera program is working.

The system got a little more stable.

please continue. I saw feedback from the author again.

good work.

Thanks

Thanks man for your effort, its my first Nougat experience and loving it so far.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] tahattha:
please did speaker work fine or sound not clearly :):):):):)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] amit1748:
yes the speakers are working fine with clear sound.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] tahattha:
Thank you bro
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] bazongo:
This is the best version bro ??

I just have to things need to be proved

-There is echo during phone calls for the other side!

-And the front speaker is too low and it's hard for me to hear the calls voice !

What should I do ?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Shiranuy:
Hi, I flashed this rom and everything was ok but when I try to restore a back up of my previous rom, I get a bootloop, same happens if I flash another lp rom, I have a C6903 with unlocked bootloader.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] tahattha:
hi bro i install the rom but speaker not clear the bass is high
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] gauravbhakuni90:
Are you trying to restore stock ROM??

If yes then after restore you need to flash apps log partition from Emma.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] aleksandar9999a:
You must flash latest stock rom with flashtool and then restore your backup.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Shiranuy:
I did that and everything seems to be fine, thanks for the reply
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] amit1748:
Hi

The speakers worked fine for me, had some other issues like portable charging, echo on the other end during calls etc.

I installed 24/12 build rom. when i use usb tethering and hotspot, it did not turn on, just error. Any error about tethering at your mobile?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] nemes480:
I bought a new battery because every time dropped me from 50 to 0 percent. And now I sill have that s*** problem with the new battery. Please do someting with this accu problem. And tethering not work for me always give error...

I dont want to flash back the stock but if there will be no change I can not do other.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] SuperLamic:
that's really really weird. I had the same problem and service center stated that they replaced battery and there is no problem now... the only problem with battery is that it sometimes says -22 percent, but after a while it again reads the correct value.

about tethering ... yeah, I found it too and now I'm on holidays and I have to use external usb modem...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] nemes480:
Yeah I had the same things sometimes -22% for 10 sec but after show the normal. Can you help me Lamic what can I do with this? Should I buy a new battery again?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
Give it a few charging cycles on a stable rom (certainly not on any Nougat or MM) and if you still have that, your new battery is bad. Keep in mind that all those batteries were made in 2012-2013...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] SuperLamic:
I'm as confused as you... have you tried stock? You can find it out like that...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] nemes480:
I will flash back the stock tomorrow
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] nemes480:
Still having the problem. :(
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] tomascus:
Buy a new battery..
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] nemes480:
No deepsleep or doze can cause any problem for my device?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] nemes480:
Portable Wifi Hotspot doesnt work while mobil data is on, without it it seems like work
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] optimumpro:
No. The phone would just last for a much shorter period of time on a single charge. Usually, when your device never sleeps, it adds about 3-4% an hour battery drain...

hi superlamic

24 12 16 rom

I am using it for about 20 days.

After the phone call is over.

* The mobile network is back at 0 and then back again.

This happens after every phone call.

To use the camera with "gpay open camera".

battery. Few internet. 2 days usage.

battery. I used the internet very little. 2 days usage.

Besides the features I mentioned, it works stable.

if it is possible

"Stamina mode" is important.

Will it be a new update?

Those are the only things keeping me from flashing this.

How can I root my phone after I install the rom, I only knew how to root using kingroot which I hate because of the bloatware and the enforced busy-box of theirs.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, I'm new to the whole flashing and unlocking bootloader thingy ^^ but I managed to do it, now if you can noobly guide me on how to root as well it would be awesomely appreciated.

Also awesome work team, I really love it despite the camera issue ^_^!

Use supersu! Download the zip and flash it via recovery
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] timeoverflow:
I tried that and after the flashing, my phone kept powering off after the android logo was done.

I simply went into TWRP recovery pressed install and then chose the superSU .zip, dunno if I missed a step or did something wrong, can you help me ^^?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] heman96:
You should have flashed the zip while installing the rom
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] timeoverflow:
What exactly do you mean by while, after installing the rom I shouldn't have rebooted and instead go back and flash the superSU.zip and then reboot?
