Can anybody tell me what is in that Add-ons ?? Because I don't know what I'm installing:)

I'm pretty experienced in this ROM but I'd like to have it on my mind what is the difference between ROM with and without add-ons.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] meistr91:
Dont want to be rude, but if you experienced so just download that addons zip file and open it with any unziper application(simple open it, not unzip) which is probably on you pc is already installed and you will see what the addons you will be installing.

Addons:

- Loops themes

- Xperia home launcher

- Sony clock widget

- Xperia weather

- Xperia live wallpapers
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] Caraya:
Well you got me. Thanks. I meant I'm experienced because I had this ROM before but in general I'm still learning about what else I can do with device after bootloader unlocking.

Strange because I have installed that zip and I have still XZ UI ...

Edit.

I think you solved my problem by pointing me what is in that Add-on zip file. I did something wrong while installing it or maybe I forgot to install it somehow. Now everything is ok ?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] doblez:
I've been using the rom since version 1 and it's only gotten better, and I've tried all the other custom ROMS, but this one is by far the best as of writing!

My headset sound is a bit messed up ATM, but that's due to the ROM changing kernels (with and without modded audio files), and a remnant of dolby I've been to lazy to get rid of.

Only thing "wrong" with this ROM from my perspective is that when going from deepsleep to usage the CPU has to "wake up", but that's a very minor issue!

Do flash!

Even if you flash it you have to activate that UI through settings menu! :) And if it's still not working I'd try a clean flash of the whole shebang!
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] Caraya:
Yeah I did something wrong now it's ok. Could you tell me where can I find that System UI Tuner from author's screenshot?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] doblez:
If you searched the thread you would've found it, but ;)

You just have to pull the notification shade down and hold the gear/settings icon for about 5 secs and it should be activated and available from the settings menu! :)

hi bro

hi [MENTION=3445386]altvolt74[/MENTION] bro

i had sent a pm to you

Could you please check and reply me bro ?

Your answer will really help for future Development and mods

Thank you

Edit:-

Come across your rom ( suggested by your rom user ) . since i had no device for now, as it was in service center.

Good work bro. congratulations.

[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] Caraya:
Yo.

After a week of using this ROM, system is lagging. Everything started to work slower than before...

And somehow my internal memory has changed from 32gb to 16gb
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] basthet:
Nice to finally see some action going on on the Android N side. Just installed the rom: great work.

Since Xposed is not working I tried to installed my prefered theme, however the icons in the navigation bar have stayed as they were. Even worse: installing one theme results in a endless bootloop so I have to install this rom again. Has Google changed some stuff so the older themes/designes are not working any more?

I exported some png from a theme, but the pngs imported via System UI Tuner are far too big for my taste. I already scaled them and tried my luck with some other editing - but nothing worked. I already googled for some hints, but without luck.

Has someone managed to changed the naviation bar icons or could guide me to a side how to proceede?

Thanx
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] Root97:
When i flashed TWRP before i had this problem and when i flashed Androkernel .43 the problem reoccurred, does anyone know why the storage shrink in size ?

I might move to lineage os once they sort out the WiFi problem, does that mean I'll also get 16gb instead of 32gb?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] meistr91:
You need to delete systemui.navbar.overlay from system/vendor/overlay because its already themed. Or just instead deleting you can simple edit that overlay for your needs.

I faced one problem by compiling apk back, with windows tools but op recommended to edit those overlays apk with phone app called APK Editor from playstore.

It simple worked perfect.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] John Olien:
Hey, I had the same problem. What I did was boot into recovery and changed​ the file system of /data to FAT. Then, changed​ it back again to ext4. Beware though, since this method also wipes user data. :)
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] tapiwasam:
you need to let it boot after flashing twrp, then go back and flash the kernel and let it boot again before flashing anything else
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] basthet:
That works for me - thanks

---------- Post added at 04:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:39 PM ----------

Can you please be a bit more precise on this?

I flashed twrp, booted. Than flashed the kernel (which one you took?), rebooted.

What you have flashed then?

Hello! This rom is amazing and works great on my Z5C. Although I have the problem of low sound. The music, the ringtones ring low. How can I solve this problem?

Normal camera works, but as soon you switch to the front camera the app crashes.

[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] Nyahaha1171:
Yeah, sorry but I'm not going to use this anymore. Nice all those extra functions but what's the point if you can't even get the basics right? Also, Everyone who asks questions is responded to with: "Yeah, you need to do x and the y". NO... You need to, despite your best efforts and it being a hobby project, get your **** together and create a stable ROM that doesn't require the end user to do all kinds of **** before it's usable. That's the point of being a developer. I mean, you add a SE-fix and whatnot but can't get the camera right. You add undervolting but everything is either unresponsive or laggy. You add init.d tweaks but can't seem to get the audio right.. The most important, basic things are ignored while all kinds of nice things are added that don't work that well. Your instructions are extremely chaotic and despite everyone keeping asking how to do ****, you haven't taken a few minutes to re order and improve the instructions. This is bad for business and I don't care you're doing this for free; People are dependant on you in this particular situation so the least you can do is get the basics right. If you need help with translating or writing, I'm your man.

I honestly can't believe there are people out there like Nyahaha1171... what an ungrateful git!

For me this is a great ROM and very easy to install/use, i tried the Lineage (Suzuran) ROM yesterday... no good.... Now I'm back on this one which is MUCH better!

Big thanks to you altvolt74, hope the GF gets her lappy repaired and you get yours back mate

All the best and please keep up the excellent work.

[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] kickling:
Just a quick one, i was trying to follow the instructions and flashing the TWRP recovery.img you posted but I kept getting error "failed to mount /system". So I decided to try the latest TWRP available and then I was able to get past this problem.

I flashed a fresh .376 FTF file using Flashtool (Russian stock .376 FTF), then loaded phone and unlocked developer tools, allowed USB debugging, then used ADB to fastboot-flash the latest TWRP ... then yes, got through the installation.

Hope this might help anyone else getting the problem of not mounting /system.

i have around 90 games and 60gb obbs around 10 social apps and the phones runs fluid ,cool and has excellent battery live almost 7 hours screen while browsing playing rbi baseball casting videos and watch them on phone aswell using whats app has great optimization since doest reflect on my batt uses facebook google plus seems to getting better aswell

after update delete the file then reboot
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] tapiwasam:
the setup of my phone is as you described there. I ended up formatting /system, installing the ROM, add-ons then installed updates, except 2.7.3.

it seems to have solved the problem for all other apps except the facebook app, it locks up randomly then force closes. but again, it might be an issue with the app since I'm on beta
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] kickling:
Thanks mate. I recently was using Xpower 5.0 and so far this is better. I like the custom camera mod, especially the manual focus selections. Will report back to tell everyone if 2.7.5 has fixed my phone-freezing issues. Thx.

(took a while to boot up after flashing, scared me for a little bit ... was showing the swirling animation for a long time!)
