[Android Themes] crestfallen.still96:
I have purchased flight master theme because its lockscreen clock looks awesome.

However, I hate the rest of the theme, it's too boxy.

Is there a way to only apply the lockscreen clock instead?

And are there any other lockscreen clocks on the market?

According to Xperifirm, the Nougat update is now available for Xperia Z5C!! Customized AU for E5823.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] stevo_125:
Thanks for the heads up!

Flashing now. Been waiting for this to decide whether or not I dump this overheating brick.

[Xperia Z5 Compact General] beamdelta:
Just finished downloading the FTF through Flashtool/XperiFirm. Will flash in a moment and report back if noone else beats me to it (most likely someone will :) )
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] stevo_125:
Ok, early feedback from the AU build

Fingerprint reader is lightning fast, most noticeable change on first boot - Just wow.

Whole phone seems considerably more fluid, a lot less lags and stutters - that said, my MM build was in a bit of a state and had become very slow!

Currently investigating the new stamina options:

"Battery time preferred" slows the whole phone to a crawl. It disables the "big" cores, disables a bunch of features, and reduces display brightness - not pleasant to use at all. A bit TOO heavy handed in my opinion. nb. It seems you need to reboot after changing FROM this mode to reactivate the big cores??

"balanced" mode does introduce a lot of micro stutter throughout the UI, less noticable if you disable animations from the developer menu, but I still wouldn't recommend using this option all the time.

Performance preferred" option seems a good compromise. The battery life estimate jumped up by about 25% compared with disabled, and is barely noticable in general use - I may leave this enabled 24/7 if all is well.

New options in the camera include timer and also the object tracking on Superior Auto, ported from the Xperia X series - a welcome surprise.

Nougat's new notification mechanism is a good improvement, I like that change a lot. There are more interactive options in the notifications themselves, and they can be long pressed to expose further options still, such as removing a notification from lock screen, setting them to "icon only" and other such things.

I'm still not delighted by the heat this thing puts out, on my phone previously on MM I've seen battery temp in the very high 40's when browsing over 4g, and even 52c once playing Pokemon GO.......this is borderline dangerous quite frankly! A geekbench run on Nougat saw me into mid 40s, so looks like no improvement there.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Superrman:
Please anyone do a video review (i wonder if you can still do a screen video) < one example :P

[Xperia Z5 Compact General] brokich:
Awesome!!! No idea when Bulgaria gets it but I am already hyped.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] stevo_125:
Hi,

replied inline to answer some of your questions - I can't do a proper "review" now as I am at work!
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] x2srj:
Is there much difference between the NOBA and AU releases? I like the idea of no NFC icon which is part of NOBA, wondered if there is anything else I should consider?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] brokich:
Can anyone with the Z5C Nougat post some screens with the new notification bar and Recent apps view (I wonder if the "clear all" button is still there), possibly multitasking in action too? Thanks!
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] chall3ng3r:
There's now a video at top of the update screen showing new features https://youtu.be/OiZqtQ7HBlc

The download speed I'm getting at the moment, it might take few days to download :(

Is there a way to get the OTA to download on mobile data? As soon as I turn off Wi-Fi, download is paused. I think it will be faster over LTE data.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] brokich:
Ah, sweet, hadn't noticed that. Definitely looks pretty good. I'm hoping it's not buggy, or at least has mostly negligible bugs.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] stevo_125:
Yes, clear all button is still there, but it's been moved to top right. (next to small apps button)
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Antho02:
oh and i just flashed to the last MM version tonight :/

now we gotta wait for a root method :)
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] ric69:
Not sure multitask is working on our device (I didn't find anything in settings)
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Born to Die:
Quick thoughts after an hour or so of usage. It feels more smooth. The notifications are nice. The battery seems ok so far,need to use it for a few days i guess.

Split Screen is working fine for me and I havent actually noticed any lag while no battery care functions turned on.

Clear all button is there right up at the top.

Double tap switches between the last two apps quickly.

My Ringtone and Media Volume is stuffed. Can anyone else check that on their device? The volume is loud for a millisecond and then it dies right down to a painfully low level.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Cerhio:
I really should have been more clear. I had unlocked my phone and backed up my TA keys long ago. I just wanted to know if the root process was the same as the first Nougat update. It totally is!

Unless there is a better way of rooting than editing that init file while creating the boot.img?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Tobi@s:
Either systemless SuperSu or Magisk is the way to go nowadays

Dont know about phh's superuser since magisk integrated its own su managament
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Gewiz:
Just for your info: Actually MagiskSu is based on phh's superuser;)

Edit: Forgot to mention that i wouldn't recommend SuperSU at this time because of many users running nougat, facing battery drain because of it. phh's su is recommended for the moment.

I'm just waiting for AndroPlus to post an updated kernel for N now... though has Sony even released the source yet?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] ctap001:
This. Also is Xposed working on 7.0 now?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] stevo_125:
Long press on whatever you want to multitask with in the task switcher. Definitely works, I've tried it :) not all apps support it though, and the UI will tell you if that is the case.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Superrman:
Thanks a alot!

The recorded used to be in "Phone" > setting (tree dots on the corner) > (Voice machine, 4th option) but its less important

also gonna use multiscreen for onehand even its small screen sometimes hard to reach corners ( my last sony was 3.7)

forgot to ask about RAM usage (in MM average free is 250MB )

thanks again!

Im sorry if this is a stupid question but is it possible to root nougat the same way one would root marshmallow?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Gewiz:
Root is already working on nougat. Thanks to the tool by [MENTION=357342]tobias.waldvogel[/MENTION] and the workaround by [MENTION=3989065]serajr[/MENTION] see here:https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70595975&postcount=1702

Tested it by myself and can confirm. If you don't want to build your own, you can use my flashable zip(on your own risk) https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-RIeaM9FQoMUmlNSUhZVi1HWVE

EDIT: Flash IMG from here instead https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70808236&postcount=134

However disabling RIC and implementing TWRP is not working till now.

Install guide:

Download the new firmware via Xperifirm

Download the boot.372_flash.zip from my GDrive

Download latest SuperSU https://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu/stable-2016-09-01supersu-v2-78-release-t3452703

Optional: Make Nandroid Backup

Flash the new Firmware to your device with Flashtool

Temporary boot an old boot.img with TWRP included via fastboot (fastboot boot [boot.img])You can use this one:https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-RIeaM9FQoMd05MU3VUeHEzRzA

Go into TWRP by pressing Vol up on startup

Install the boot.372_flash.zip

Install SuperSU

Restart into System

Done!

Afaik unfortunately not. That's the reason why i will stay with MM for now.

I wonder if you tried this mod? With it(v1.6.1) my temperature level is normal. https://xdaforums.com/xperia-z5/development/mod-smartemperaturex-best-balanced-s810-t3438890

Wow I'm having so much trouble for some reason. I updated to the latest Flashtool by Androxyde and it doesn't create the ftf by itself. Can someone point me to where I can learn how to create the ftf file?

EDIT: NVM! I closed and reopened Flashtool and then redownloaded the nougat firmware and now its packing it as a ftf by itself. I don't know why it didn't work before.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] venku95:
Did someone have errors with flashtool Like me ? I can instal the Australian nougat firmware, the versions with Android marshmallow work well but with the 7.0 It don't want to flash
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Cerhio:
Yes I had errors too! Go to the drivers folder in your flashtool install, there is a driver installer in there. If that doesn't work, install the latest version of Flashtool.

Can someone explain how to boot the boot.img as in the previous post in order to get root?

EDIT: NVM, I figured out that I was supposed to use the command rootkernel kernel.elf boot.img

Can anyone confirm if Bluetooth AVRCP metadata (music track information being sent to the receiver) is working? It worked great on MM - now I get nothing.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] dlee390:
For anyone on Mac/Windows and wanting to update to Nougat, here's what I did:

MAKE SURE TO BACK UP YOU WILL LOSE YOUR DATA(using twrp).

1. [MAC]download mono, so that you can use xperifirm on mac(pm if you have any questions)

2. flash 32.2.A.0.11, this is important!!!(otherwise the flashing will result in a loader.sin error)

3. update to the latest Flashtool version, also important!!!(otherwise nougat isn't supported)

4. compile tft using Xperifirm and Flashtool(tutorials can be found online, pm me if you have any questions)

5. flash 32.3.A.0.372(nougat) onto your device!

6. reboot!

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, let me know :)
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Cerhio:
Can you explain in detail this part? I don't know how to termporary boot an old boot.img or how to flash into TWRP.

[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Gewiz:
It's like i wrote: The command is "fastboot boot [boot.img]" . If you use my file it would be "fastboot boot boot.11.img". On Startup when the Notification LED is yellow press "Volume up"-Button on the phone.

Should already work, however i couldn't test it because i had my DRM keys restored.

That's because until now there is no way to disable Sony RIC.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] chekh0v1:
Rootkernel was able to patch my .372 kernel and disable Sony RIC (along with dm-verity). Have you tried that?

Kernel

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bx1OcmHUFKOEREZfSjdDSUxEbUk/view?usp=sharing

Have the flashable.zip with the boot.img of 6.0.1 with TWRP flashed and then SuperSU.

After the flash and reboot it can also give a bootloop, the second attempt goes however.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] chekh0v1:
Also a bizarre thing: if I make a kernel with dm-verity and Sony RIC off (basically N to all requests in rootkernel), the phone gets stuck on the Sony logo, but if I answer Y to disabling dm-verity and RIC, the kernel boots normally. Since my digitizer is half-broken I can't flash SuperSU.zip in recovery (bottom half doesn't work, can't swipe to flash) to test mounting /system rw, but if anyone is willing, here's the procedure:

1. Extract kernel.elf from ftf (Flashtool->Sin Extractor->Firmware folder path->kernel[...].elf->extract data

2. Place kernel[...].elf in rootkernel folder

3. Open cmd in rootkernel folder, type "rootkernel kernel[...].sin boot.img" (without quote marks)

4. Disable dm-verity ->Y

Disable Sony RIC ->Y

Install DRM fix ->N

Install Busybox->N

5. Flash boot.img via fastboot (fastboot flash boot boot.img)

6. Reboot into recovery

7. Flash SuperSU.zip in recovery

8. Reboot

9. Check whether /system is rw mountable or not.

Thanks in advance!

So could any of you under the new Nougat firmware kindly comment on key factors and how it compares to MM:

2. Ram management (A screenshot of free ram would be highly appreciated)

3. Heating issues

4. Adaptive storage and moving apps to SD card.

2. Overall pretty smooth, although I am not a very heavy user. Screenshots attached.

How could you try my kernel since you said yourself, that you can't flash trough TWRP? The Kernel i shared, will only work that way. Don't complain if you didn't stick to my guide.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] spacesnow:

[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Gewiz:
Yeah, i supposed this. But unfortunatly this kernel won't work that way. You have to flash the whole zip-file.

hm.. I've not only the problem that it's not working with the metadata.

The connection between my mercedes and the z5 compact worked extremely good before the update to nougat. Now its not working anymore.. at least when it comes to Bluetooth Audio Streaming.

The Mobile thinks its working, and plays something.. But the car displays something like "audio stopped".

Handsfree anyway is working as before.

I updated my my E5823 from Switzerland with the variants

Customized AU 1298-7260

Customized SG 1298-5155

Customized CH 1298-7257 all worked nicely..

I don't know even what the source variant was.

---------- Post added at 08:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:52 AM ----------

Updated with Customized AU 1298-7260 32.3.A.0.372 via XperiFirm / Flashtool

For me generally nougat is better.

- Personally the new telephony app is much better. Much less misdials (so often misdialed, because a singlepress doesn't display options)

- Battery life is better.. not exceptional but better.. (have to say here that I already had good batterylife with 32.2.a.5.11)

- Bluetooth Handsfree is as good as 32.2.a.5.11 - had no more stuttering since ~32.2.a.0.305

- Bluetooth Audio Streaming not working at the moment

- Stammina seams doing the Job better than before.. (more modes)

--Stammina set to "Akkulaufzeit bevorzugt" (Battery time) ...and what I love: Stammina autostart on from 95%

Normaly rooted. But waiting 1-2 days when installing a complete new version that I know battery drain or failures are not coming from root

-> try to root today evening, or tomorrow evening.

Did you do a full wipe before flashing? Or did you upgrade via OTA? I always do a full wipe when upgrading from one firmware increment to another (LP - MM - N).
