Not yet, I seem to have somehow not gotten the camera working (strange since I thought I used the right aosp tree...)

Otherwise you'll just need to flash opengapps after the rom and everything should work..
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] chjvsk:
Wi-Fi hotspot is not working

USB tethering is not working

ROM is fine

The main problem is kernal is not supporting full hardware and camera is not available

Otherwise every thing is fine in this ROM
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] alinolaw71:
dont support Z3 dual ?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] TjNiko:
camera does not work and somehow battery drain on idle. can u somehow implement transparency for the notificationsbar etc? realy miss it dont know how i can do this.

another bug on shutdown menu, restart leads to advanced restart options, but shutdown also do it. no chance to shut down the device.

is it normal the chace folder on twrp shows me 0mb? like all the apps runs on cpu unchaced then?

pls fix the rom and work on the kernel want this as daily driver <3

PROBLEM AFTER SOME TIME CALLING SOMEONE PHONE RESTART (guess the phone gets a critical error)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] blackhaya:
Works pretty well, except for the fast battery drain, no camera, recovery in op doesn't work.

And of course, there's no root (superuser app is already installed but no superuser access), because of that I can't install any other recovery to install root in there. Any suggestions? :confused:

And... flashlight doesn´t work and google camera can´t be installed with opengapps

Sorry my bad english...
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Hawknelli:
Any chance of support for D6633? Please say yes ;/
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] MarkusMcNugen:
I flash this recovery with fastboot and everything seems to be working but there is a random error that doesnt seem to affect anything when installing zips.

https://xdaforums.com/z3/development/z3-twrp-2-8-7-0-d6603-t3273996

Also for root, I flashed Magisk and phh's Superuser from the OPs Suggested Extras and I seem to have a fully working root.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] HaoZeke:
Could I have a logcat of the call restart?

Transparency... Well I'm currently trying to rebase the project on the latest aosp... After that I'll look into it...

The shutdown thing I'll upload a fix for..
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] HaoZeke:
Actually since I don't own this device the kernel is the aosp stock one... So the battery thing I can't do too much about until someone builds a custom aosp kernel (I could try but I'd never know if it works without uploading and waiting for testers which is too much of a hassle)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Kexone:
Thank for this awesome ROM.

I have same problems with:

- camera (black screen) - only otg cam works :D

- wifi hotspot

- usb tethering

And battery is drain too fast (perhaps 3x faster then normal) - have root, have greenify, doze, now testing betterBatteryStats

EDIT: Battery looks good. On 92% says 8 hours left (before only 4).

There are some catlogs: dropbox.com/sh/w7u8u06zw0129yn/AAA2fEIEIdHmmSfb-szR-92Ha?dl=0

If you want more logs or something else, hit me up.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] TjNiko:
Fixed the Phone bug, substratum theme was broked. still have real hard recharge problems and drain presists even with greenify and doze....

with xpoosed i could get some fixes for it...
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] HaoZeke:
Hard reset issue is fixed, I'll just finish the build for this device tonight.. Actually I was trying to get some time to also fix the opengapps issue...

There isn't an xposed for nougat and its unlikely there will be.....
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] TjNiko:
ah wait these builds require MM or N architecture? over MM i got small problems in recovery and now i tried it over N architecture and i cant apply system.img on it no matter what. size to big.

edit: i mean partition layout
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] HaoZeke:
New version up.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] HaoZeke:
N architecture, but I don't understand the question... You should use fastboot and a computer... Not the phone recovery... O.o
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Nekser1208:
How is root? What TWRP you have installed?

Where to download the new version?

And why in the first post you are just links to the Xperia Z5?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] HaoZeke:
Well, it's a DevDB project, the latest Rom is in the downloads tab of this thread.

The earlier versions were Z5 only. I just updated the download button.

Root is via magisk and phh's superuser (you need to install both)

TWRP, well, I didn't build a recovery, just the system.img so go for whichever working TWRP you have...

If the new kernel causes issues user any aosp kernel for the z3 (android 7 or higher)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] TjNiko:
nono i tested if i use the N preview as base i get error about not enought spacce no matter what. so flashed 6.0 FTF and reflashed seems to be fine.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] TjNiko:
well still have battery drain. this needs a fix.

display just eating up batterry along with buggy functions from the 3.10 kernel, cant we somehow use 3.4 kernels wich are just far better atm?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] HaoZeke:
There are huge number of bugs floating around the 3.10 source code, many made worse by sony's sudden jump to 3.18 (from android 7.1.1, officially)

It's true a backport or fast forward from or to 3.4 would be better, but I can't commit to kernel development for a device I no longer own... I'd be willing to give pointers to anyone interested though...
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Kexone:
New version for Z3 with fixed camera, wifi hotspot ?

Thread cleaned.

[Xperia Z3 Android Development] RobbyRobbb:
I'm confused about what this means. If kernel version 3.10 has a lot of bugs why do so many roms use this version? Isn't the Linux kernel up to like version 5 now? Why doesn't the devs of Android phones move on to newer kernels? Can i update the kernel in this rom manually? How do i know which kernel and kernel version i can use for a rom?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] TjNiko:
[MENTION=4798378]RobbyRobbb[/MENTION] Android kernels are Kind based on linux, but on android alot of important fixes and stuff have to be done to get it to work. i.e. Kernel have to have the devicedrivers build in kernel else it wont boot. Generaly its like android kernel require some real hard work to be runable on Android devices and androidkernels working only at device they are mean for couse actually android have to load some drivers for the device directly from it.

There was another idea known as Ubuntu Touch wich from what i heard and i cant confirm that, would work like a real linux and would go the way of real linux kernel for arm. The 3.10 kernel is still only just bootable, devs dont seems to make any real hard jumps forward atm. Either using and 3.4 kernel and write the roms on a compatible way or having an unstable kernel wich can lead to many problems. Currently 3.10 kernel have alot of wakelocks problems with charger, batterydrain problems from display, it can freeze on terminal sometimes etc.

Thing is 7.x.x have stupid fast, boottimes are like totaly gone and in overall its real fast. But currently its just the kernel and maybe some bad code that have massive drawbacks.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] RobbyRobbb:
And Sony are now using 3.18 for their latest roms? Do you know which roms for the Z3 that use a kernel with the least amount of issues? Is this problem the same on phones made by other manufacturers?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] TjNiko:
Not real their Wannsee 3.18 Kernel is also full of Bugs
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] mattia.bf:
But there is no 3.18 kernel for shinano devices. All ROMs that are on android 6.0+ here are on 3.10 because I think you would need to do a full port if you wanted to use another kernel, because sony sources for the z1-z3 range are on 3.10
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] panzerox123:
//off-topic

Can I help port this to the Z3Compact? Thanks!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] TjNiko:
well i know that the 7.0 beta was shiped with 3.4-perf kernel. and the atm from all roms i saw the kernel that is shiped on existenz rom wich seems to be standart works at best. unfornatly flashing kernels from shadowelite breaking my camera. but in overall 3.4 is the best kernel until the 3.10 kernel developers fixing all these issuses.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] RobbyRobbb:
Just installed the current version of this rom and i can't perform the necessary step to uninstall the current Gapps and install another. Open Gapps causes Package Installer to crash when i try to grant it permission to file storage during the app setup. Is this a known problem? If not, how do i report it?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] TjNiko:

Great work! I just need to know- Have you experienced overheating? Is there thermal safety implemented? I got a fright my device got to 93°C without shutting down automatically. I'm running beta 6 from MEGA on my D6603. Looking forward to new releases for my board.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] jester020407:
Is it possible to make a flashable zip? Thanks
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] pjottrr:
so i was wondering,

is this rom stable enough to use it as a daily rom? or is it still to buggy?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] a110c:
Enable 5Ghz Wi-Fi

This ROM for Sony Z3 (PixN1_6_D6603.7z) tuned to see 2.4GHz Wi-Fi networks only so enabling 5 GHz requires little tweak.

Variable "ccode=XT" in the file /system/etc/wifi/bcmdhd.cal should be changed to "ccode=RU", where RU is your actual presence country code. If you enter code of some country your are not actually in, the system switches off 5 GHz probably not to break RF regulations.

Before you can edit file on the system partition, you should make partition writable. I use sshdroid on rooted by SuperSU phone, you may use other tool providing root shell.

#mount -o rw,remount /system
#cd /system/etc/wifi/
#cp bcmdhd.cal bcmdhd.cal.orig
#sed "/^ccode/s/XT/RU/" bcmdhd.cal.orig > bcmdhd.cal.new
#cp bcmdhd.cal.new bcmdhd.cal
#cd -
#mount -o ro,remount /system
#/system/bin/reboot

Note the last command reboots phone, because turning Wi-Fi on/off not sufficient.

P.S. Wireless hotspot does not work for me.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] a110c:
Recommend this ROM (b6) as a daily driver

Heavily used this ROM (beta 6 on Z3/d6603) for a week as a daily driver.

ROM is almost rock stable. Just one sudden reboot in a week. No FC at all.

No lags at all. Runs smoothly like a velvet. Quickly switches between heavy apps.

Battery lives for a day (about 12 hours) under quite heavy load. Lot of calling, texting, some video, lot of twitting, playing music stream.

Many thanks to HaoZeke

I had the same problem on Android 7.0 developer preview. A reboot served as a temperary fix, but after 7.1, the problem got fixed. Try reflashing stock image.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Subliminal Aura:
More info about this @ http://www.aacompserv.com/AACompWeb/Modules/PPCTablet/WhatIsIt.aspx

I'm using this as basically a remote control for my desktop PC.

It works way better than things like vnc and is highly customizable.

Is there anything else out there that is close to this or better ?

As I say its almost perfect however the only thing wrong with it is that when I turn off the kaiser and then back on - wifi re-establishes itself but I end up having to reconnect to the PPC Tablet server - only adds a few seconds but is annoying as it doesn't keep the connection alive.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Farsquidge:
Install 'Kaiser Tweaks' and use the setting in it to keep you WiFi active in sleep mode.

Remember to disable WiFi when you are not using it as it will drain your battery.

Nothing however can solve the problem of a lost connection if you walk away though! :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Subliminal Aura:
Awesome... Apply reg hack... soft reset and it works great although the wifi led doesn't flash whilst in sleep mode (I'm not bothered by that ;)

Cheers mate
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] RemE:
Interesting, their site states that it's not compatible with WM6 yet, but I see it's working for you.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Subliminal Aura:
Works great for me - looks dated but works.... I got the feeling it may hicup in landscape mode hence the reason why they say its not wm6 compatible.

FYI - I'm running dutty hybrid 4 final with .net cf 2 - All standard stuff really
[General Questions and Answers] povlhp:
Hi all,

I received a review copy of the WinkPax G1 gaming tablet which includes a gaming controller, that can work alone or as a dock.

This is it: http://www.banggood.com/3-in-1-Winkpax-PAX-G1-MT8783-64-bit-Quad-Core-1200x1920-IPS-Tablet-PC-with-Handheld-Console-Game-p-1103815.html

The problem is, that is comes with a very bare bones Android 5.1. No google Play Services or anything. I have installed Amazon Underground, but it has few apps for it, installed Chrome from apkmirror. But I need the Google Play store.

Any idea how to get it working ? I have installed at least 20 different Google Play Services versions from 6.x forward, and they all crash when starting up.

The device is based on the MT8783, and seems to have a pretty good LTE chipset, 2GB RAM, 32GB flash, and build quality in the better end.

How do I back up the included ROM ? And is there an alternate ROM I can deploy to it ? Or an alternate way to access the Google Play Store ? I have updated ROMs from the PC on an older device, and I do have fairly good tech skills. But I can't really find the info I need.
