Bluetoot bug

Thank you for this ROM,

it's working almost perfect, except a small bug with bluetooth

Bluetooth is working but wh I use it with my car system (Peugeot) a strange thing happens on disconnect (car power off) the phone still display "Connected" but with the following (in french sorry) "(sans audio pour appel tél)" without audio for phone calls

Even if I'm far away from the car

This is new with Android 7, it never happens with previous Android

This doesn't happen with my bluetooth speaker for example

Could you help me ?

Benchmarking Android Sony 5.1.1 vs RRN 7.1.1

I been using this rom for a while, and I must say I like it a lot, its got great power saving, when I left 5.1.1 on over the night without being plugged in fully charged, it would drain to 60% for no reasons.

With 7.1.1 I do the same thing, it barely drains 3% idling through the night, amazing!

However the performance seems to be really strange, now in my earlier post I made a comparison with benchmarks however GSMA utilised the original Kitkat Sony stock ROM and not 5.1.1.

So I decided to do another test but this time more careful, after each benchmarking I waited 30 minutes to let the phone cool down because it is in my belief that it throttles itself all the time when it reaches a certain temperature even though its not overheating.

ROM version 20170112

Stock clockspeeds and performance profile balanced

MEMORY & RAM - A1 Bench

Internal

Android 5.1.1 -> read 47.59MB/s | write 24.81MB/s

Android 7.1.1 -> read 50.47MB/s | write 17.45MB/s

RAM

Android 5.1.1 -> 3059MB/s

Android 7.1.1 -> 2850.25MB/s

CPU, GPU & RAM - AnTuTu

Android 5.1.1 -> Total: 34 793 - 3D: 4 351 - UX: 12 099 - CPU: 13 670 - RAM: 4 673

Android 7.1.1 -> Total: 31 293 - 3D: 4 456 - UX: 9 551 - CPU: 12 109 - RAM: 5 177

CPU & GPU - Geekbench 4 Benchmarking

Android 5.1.1 -> Single-Core: 544 - Multi-Core: 1439 - 3D RenderScript: 804

Android 7.1.1 -> Single-Core: 548 - Multi-Core: 1534 - 3D RenderScript: 802

Gaming - Epic Citadel

Resolution: 1776x1080

Performance Level: High Quality

Android 5.1.1 -> Average 1st 55fps - 2nd 54.8fps - 3rd 55fps

Android 7.1.1 -> Average 1st 53.6fps - 2nd 53.9fps - 3rd 53fps

CPU - Vellamo Browser Benchmark

Android 5.1.1:

Chrome Browser 55 = 1363

Android WebView 3.2.6 = 1552

Opera Browser = 41 = 1849

Single core = 754

Multi core = 1199

Android 7.1.1:

Chrome Browser 55 = 1355

Android WebView 3.2.6 = 1781

Opera Browser = 41 = 5841

Single core = 696

Multi core = 1228

There are multiple factors why the phone scores less than Sony stock 5.1.1 but number one reason could be worse driver supported in the 7.1.1 RRN v5.8.0 rom, another reason could be the apps are poorly optimised for 7.1.1 which I thought was more likely however I then tested my Samsung Galaxy S4 Active which only updates to 5.0.1 as latest stock rom, I updated it to Lineage OS 14.1/7.1.1 and ran the same tests and I see that on the Samsung I get performance increase upgrading it to Nougat.

I can only speculate because I am not the author of this great ROM, despite the completely irrelevant performance loss it most likely is just the device itself throttling because you must remember, unlike the Samsung one the Xperia Z is complete airtight which means the internals are not getting air and that means its way more suspect to overheating than a Samsung with removal battery and yes the S4 Active is also waterproof despite having removal battery.

Also the performance has improved since the last ROM version I used the 20161212 one in my previous benchmark, this is the newest so far 20170112 and you can see there is 2 - 3% more performance since last update.
[Xperia Z Android Development] john.boltmanj:
Guys , how to root this ROM?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Burhan777:
already rooted go to developer options and give root access
[Xperia Z Android Development] john.boltmanj:
I selected apps and adb. But still root dosent work.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Burhan777:
which app of yours needs root permission ?
[Xperia Z Android Development] john.boltmanj:
Wps connect.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Burhan777:
try to update the app .. i once updated the app and it started working on root and restart the device
[Xperia Z Android Development] john.boltmanj:
App is update. Es file manager, lucky patcher ....doesn't work too. Root access doesn't work. My English is bad[emoji16]
[Xperia Z Android Development] SMGJohn:
Why did the double tap to wake function stop working with the latest rom?

Also is there any way to get the Sony apps to work?
[Xperia Z Android Development] aqibpk:

[Xperia Z Android Development] bsunixss:

[Xperia Z Android Development] jlovelo:
Can you boot to recovery (TWRP)?
[Xperia Z Android Development] john.boltmanj:
i flash a kernel with recorey. and install this rom again using recovery mod. but i want to back 5.1.1.

what can i do?
[Xperia Z Android Development] hendra.dunk:
Don't flash 5.1.1

You need to flash 4.4.2 or lower firmware first. then you can flash 5.1.1
[Xperia Z Android Development] john.boltmanj:
is there any way to flash 5.1.1 from this rom?
[Xperia Z Android Development] hendra.dunk:
No other way. If you use flashtool you have to flash 4.4.2 to get ur phone back to life.

I did the same thing before and failed to get back to 5.1.1 from this rom (RR)

I do this, but when I should tap "install", nothing happens.

Until recently, it worked.

Ok... Lux lite dash, app changing screen brightness block installing apps. Strange thing...
[Xperia Z Android Development] pompek007:
Another thing that's bothering me is lags in games after a few minutes.

I have analyzed a game and cores 3 and 4 are quickly disabled. Why?

Can I flash other kernel or is there any way?

Because ROM for everyday using was great but I can't play games when I bored.
[Xperia Z Android Development] kal27:
i'm having the same problem even in the none graphics intensive games. didn't realize until now that it's because of the cores. any way to fix it?
[Xperia Z Android Development] pompek007:
Maybe I found the app that can help us.

"L Speed"

Battery "lost %" more slowly and games working fine. (so far) :laugh:

I use balanced profile for optimize battery and switch off MPDecision for processor.

Amazing ROM but...

[Xperia Z Android Development] oh fuuu:
many questions????

[/COLOR]I spent some time exploring it and some questions striked into my mind

Does it supports cm themes ?

or...

Does it supports OMS(substratum theme engine)?

Is there any way to remove the mobile data disabled indicator(the cross above network indicator)

I cannot find answers to any of these questions.

:confused::confused::confused::confused:

please answer

and i got a bug in this:

1.When i tried to add navigation bar icon in quick settings editor,i was unable to bring it up to the qs window to add it

please make v5.8.1 for xperia z,i still see only v5.8.0 is available

I m currently using cm 13 on my xperia z
[Xperia Z Android Development] soroush199201:
Thanks and waiting for new build
[Xperia Z Android Development] akisg:
I just dirty flashed over lineageos and so far everything looks good. Great rom, excellent job!

(first boot ended in a bootloop :P but after forcing a restart boot was normal)
[Xperia Z Android Development] kbaaab:
Yes, I am experiencing battery drain on this update, previous version battery life much better... this one eats battery!
[Xperia Z Android Development] Mardon:
Cant confirm this.

Btw be sure to have phone charged 100% and charger is plugged in, now wait an hour to get all apps fully ART optimized in background.

After that battery runs normal.

[Xperia Z Android Development] kbaaab:
I flashed it yesterday morning and the phone lived on its charging stand until late afternoon... and then again the whole of last night.

On the previous build, I could go the whole day, from 9am until about 6pm with moderate usage and still have enough juice to do online forum stuff etc. before needing a recharge. With this current build I hit 40% at around 3pm... my phone is on the charger now at 14%. I am finding it just drinks power with this build, and nothing else has changed, just flashed this new build.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Mardon:
Hmm maybe an updated app?

[Xperia Z Android Development] kbaaab:

[Xperia Z Android Development] akisg:
Maybe a noob question, but is it possible to remove the google button in home screen? Also, when i click it, app info tab appears and it closes instantly. Is it normal or is it just me ? :)

Playing around a few hours with the new build, everything looks smooth, tried some substratum themes with no problem. Can't say anything about battery consumption cause i'm new to this rom.
[Xperia Z Android Development] filofil:
Yo guys, is there any way to make nav/taskbar to fully transparent only to see buttons, %'s etc?
[Xperia Z Android Development] akisg:
Search for a transparent substratum theme :)

I tried one and it looks kinda good, i haven't fully tested though. It uses your wallpaper in order to make navbar and taskbar transparent, but i'm not sure if it works for all apps.
[Xperia Z Android Development] filofil:
Thanks! I'll check it out after i update to the latest build.
[Xperia Z Android Development] pompek007:
To date I am updating the system, but always when I flashing zip I have information about "unkonwn command". ROM working good, reboot continues 20 minutes after flashing.

I don't have a problem, but here is a link to a log :

https://wklej.to/dzbBL
[Xperia Z Android Development] kbaaab:
Hmmmm... I have flashed this latest ROM, been booting now for close on 40minutes for me, and still booting.

I think mine is stuck in a bootloop.

I came from RR-N-v5.8.0-20170112-yuga-Official, wiped both caches, and flashed... will give it a bit more time then try again.

Cannot wait to try this new build.
[Xperia Z Android Development] akisg:
I have the same two red line errors everytime i flash a rom, although never had an issue, i cant tell whats causing it, but it doesn't affect flashing. I thinks its somehow related to the default location of the log file created during flash.

About the bootloop, i had it too first time coming from lineageos 14.1 (dirty flashing) but i wasn't too patient to wait that much :P , so i forced restart after about 7-8 min of bootloop, then next boot was normal.
[Xperia Z Android Development] kbaaab:
I forced a restart... and still no luck. Stuck again on the loading screen.

Oh well... will try again later or tomorrow.
[Xperia Z Android Development] akisg:
I would suggest as a last try to reflash latest build then wipe dalvik/cache, reboot once, wait a bit since first boot takes a while and try your luck. If even after restart u still cant boot then i think the best solution is a clean flash after wiping everything.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Zerikwan:
nice update, [MENTION=6994234]Chippa_a[/MENTION]

bringing OMS to our Z, love it.

small request,

could you please add touch sound on navigation bar? LineageOS has it, but RR not.

smooth as a baby's bottom - great ROM!
[Xperia Z Android Development] john.boltmanj:
Do I clean flash or normal flash? And what deference between that?
[Xperia Z Android Development] akisg:
If you are coming from another 7.1.1 normal flash should work in most cases (i flashed over linageos 7.1 without wiping anything and everything was fine).

The difference is that all your system app/data is preserved during normal flash and sometimes it could cause problems (system glitches, fc apps etc), in which case a clean install is recommended.
[Xperia Z Android Development] mehdi_47:
Hi.Please Insert CM Them Engine For Remix N
[Xperia Z Android Development] jlovelo:
Updating from 12-12-16, I wiped Dalvik, Cache and System. Installed both ROM and GAPPS 3-2-17 nano before reboot (took 20 mins). I only had a couple of minor personalisations to fix. That's a dirty flash.

If you do a factory reset (deletes app data), then it's a clean flash and you have to set up Android and your apps from scratch.

Twrp issue

after clean flash over previous build, twrp not rebooting properly. you need to force restart using 3key combo to reboot. how ever, it seems that this is not really an issue for me. the rom is stable and no problem for me. so far... thanks sir chipa_a.
[Xperia Z Android Development] akisg:
I don't have this issue (i tried dirty flash and clean install too). Maybe reflashing your twrp helps you out. Also, you can flash twrp in fota partition, so when you are flashing roms they wont mess up your recovery.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Zerikwan:
me to.. maybe it because I have no twrp in fota partition, so the recovery wont boot properly unless force restart

but the rom seems good..
[Xperia Z Android Development] SQBI:

I've found two issues :( I can't turn the torch on, it is not responding (no FC either). The second one is a black screen on calls - it looks like the sensor locks here.

[Xperia Z Android Development] akisg:
I have none of these issues. Maybe something is wrong with your device? If you are coming from clean install try a sensor test app to test your device. If not, try a clean install.

---------- Post added at 05:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:02 PM ----------

I think it has to do with the camera settings. By default touch focus is set to 3sec. You can change that to 0sec in order to have instant touch focus. Otherwise keep touching for the predefined touch focus time.

[Xperia Z Android Development] kbaaab:
I have been using this ROM for a number of days.... and it is the best I have used thus far.

Battery life, standby, is the best I have had, onscreen is also better than it has been with other RR 7.1 builds.

So thank you [MENTION=6994234]Chippa_a[/MENTION]! Your work is very much appreciated by me... brilliant stuff and keep it coming mate.
[Xperia Z Android Development] unrealRage:
Do you mind sharning numbers?How much SOT do you have durning the day?

Thanks.
[Xperia Z Android Development] akisg:
I can't tell you numbers (being using rremix for second week and i don't mind checking my sot), but as a previous cm 13 user i can say that battery life is similar. I haven't noticed any increased battery drain, and i use my phone as previously, so i would easily recommend this rom.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Sammy612:
Sorry for this stupid question... I'm about to install this rom.. Just wanted to ask if it is equal to stock 5.11 in terms of stability, battery life , smoothness. Does it lags sometimes?? because Xperia Z is the only phone that i use so i can't compromise with calling and other stuff.
[Xperia Z Android Development] ichda04:
Well, I use the phone as a daily driver, and its perfect. Calls work, no lags, the lockscreen freezing problem got fixed, it is smooth as an oily fish...I don't see a reason to not install it (I dirtyflashed from previous release).

And battery life is very good (thanks Chippa!)
[Xperia Z Android Development] akisg:
So far no issues for me, using it on my daily phone, no lags, no stability issues and smooth as butter.

[Xperia Z Android Development] akisg:
So your phone is just rebooting itself? Try, wiping dalvik cache from recovery and reboot again. Maybe some of your latest installed apps are causing issues. If that doesn't help try reflashing rom (no data or system wipe necessary unless you experience the same issue again). I haven't seen any random reboots with this rom as long as i use it.
[Xperia Z Android Development] filofil:
Battery life is the best thing about the last update! So so so great work, thanks to those who are part of this rom.

But, i don't know if it's just me or because of L speed, i am experiencing black screen for the past 2 days. This happened two time. Phone shuts off not responding to Power button. I had to press Volume Up and Power Button until three times vibrate. This is the only way to start the phone again.

[Xperia Z Android Development] akisg:
For sure its not a rom problem, LTE and 3G working fine for me. If you are coming from another rom try to flash kernel only, since you are sure that problem its not settings related. I had some issues with wifi, but in the end it was adguard messing up my network.
