I'm having trouble, I flash the rom but it just hangs at the white SONY XPERIA initial boot image. I tried flashing from both TWRP 3 (from https://xdaforums.com/xperia-z5/development/root-automatic-repack-stock-kernel-dm-t3301605) and TWRP 2 (https://xdaforums.com/z5-compact/orig-development/twrp-z5-compact-t3235161) with the same results. Should I be using some other TWRP? Could it be an issue because I flashed over .378 instead of .376? I am downloading .376 now to try that...
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] altvolt74:
Most probably you must flash ftf Z5C_32.3.A.0.376_R2R_AU before flash this

try this recovery flash it to ur recovery partition

Well I found I had E5823_32.3.A.0.376_R2D_Customized AU_1298-7260.ftf already downloaded so I flashed that, then flashed this TWRP https://xdaforums.com/z5-compact/orig-development/twrp-z5-compact-t3235161 and finally flashed your rom...still no luck.

Am I at least using the right TWRP? Flashed by flashing both recovery and boot partition images? I'll try downloading the exact Z5C_32.3.A.0.376_R2R_AU variant next...

Edit: I don't see any R2R variant. I think I flashed the right one, in this case - R2D like in the thread title.

Does it have drm fix ?

[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] tramtrist:
[MENTION=1590418]altvolt47[/MENTION] Do you know if the recently posted Z5Comp_SK_Perm_v376_III.3_14_3_ctl_X_suzuran kernel also has drm fix? My FIDO_KEYS are not provisioned and I'm wondering if this is why when using that latest kernel.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] cyberwytch:
DRM fix works out of the box for me with this rom. Did you flash your DK.ftf file, made with your TA backup? I had to do that in order for the FIDO_KEYS to say provisioned. But even without that, you can check that X-Reality at least is working under regular Settings (that doesn't require a TA backup, just the DRM fix.)
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] tramtrist:
My DK.ftf was lost in the wind a while ago :( I cry but nothing I can do now. I do have my TA-trim backed up in a twrp backup but that doesn't seem to work either... Oh well :) as long as the DRM fix works I'm not even sure what FIDO_KEYS provides me [MENTION=6844310]cyberwytch[/MENTION]

I have a customised MEA 376

Will it work on mine ?

Hi, rom is really much faster and smoother. I did CLEAN fresh install. Everything seems working fine but:

1. Video app not working just nothing happens when i click on icon. This is was same on previous version on your rom.

2.Dolby seems not working.. app opens but when i press on/off button or change presets nothing changes in a sound in headphones or internal speakers..I even got fc when i tried change something in dolby settings:// and it would be good to have sony sound settings.. cuz now i cant control mic sensitivity because lack of sony effects.. i tried reinstall rom (clean), nothing changed..

3. I see overlay for status bar icons in vendor/overlays. And in your screenshots of this rom version i see that all icons is changed in status bar. Mine only wi-fi icon is changed:/ i attached screenshot.

I tried to go to phone app settings/calls but there is no mic sensitivity option, and i want to control mic for camera aswell. I was able to do that from sound settings in main setting app. Dolby seems to be working on internal speaker it changes sound of notifications and call ringer, alarm ringer but when i plug in headphones nothing changes when i play music.:/

I would like to ask you do you know how to resize navbar heigh? I know that is controled in framework-res but when i tried to change it size in dimens.xml after recompiling stucked in bootloop.

EDIT:

In playstore i can only find music and album by sony but not video app. Tried to update via apkmirror to latest version. Still app wont open..
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] altvolt74:
video app

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sony.tvsideview.phone

there's an file on /systme/vendor/overlay/framewor-res decompile and make the adjustmesnt there compile put it back in place

as for sony sound enhancement still equalizer may not work and probaly counterfeit whot dolby

workaround ; use this mod and select sony module

https://xdaforums.com/android/software/r-s-e-sound-systems-auditory-research-t3379709

try same procedure but this time whit headphone plug once it kicks it will stay on is lil tricky

if doest work go system/ect/init d thers to files execute dax.sh and audio tweak them try the same procedure

[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] meistr91:
But headphones was really really loud...on max volume quality was poor..a lot of noise.. im talking about your config with dolby. So tried to turn on dolby to reduce that noise, but sadly my tries was unsuccessful:D

Sorry probably the last question.. i asked few pages back, but i got no reply from ya.

Did you do something with status bar colour? Now its darker everywhere, and when i use textra sms app, it has a function quick compose it draws quick sms box on top of any app, and when i open it status bar becomes white.. it didnt was like that on stock nougat .378 neither on any marshmallow or lollipop firmware. I know thats is not textra app problem. I have made short video. Check it out:

Hi,

Right then I have got everything working and let me tell you how I did this in case people get issues.

Firstly I will say flashing straight over a previous ROM even with a full wipe caused me issues as no matter how hard I tried I was unable to enter recovery.

So first thing I did was download the required files from the start of this thread.

Also this is optional. I backed everything up i needed using Titanium Backup.

Next step I used Sony flashtool and downloaded E5823_32.3.A.0.376 customized UK (Generic).

(I will add to update as the FTF file was having issues yesterday until an update was released addressing this issue).

Flashed and waited until one full boot to the welcome screen.

Flashed TWRP from the first thread.

Entered recovery then wiped system then rebooted and flashed the ROM.

- Optional - Flashed LED charging indicator patch also the stock sony apps as that's how i like it.

Waited for full boot.

Entered my google account details. Only downloaded Titanium and a file explorer as I backed up everything including Titanium to my SD card.

Transferred the Titanium file back to the main drive.

Run titanium all my files were back.

Everything is working fine!!

Anyone having issues that no one else is I recommend you carry out these steps out.

Great ROM and thanks for your help.
