ok, let's take them one by one.

1. Did you make a clean install (including formatting /system)?

2. You shouldn't have flashed a ROM for another device. This is not a universal ROM. It's a ROM made for a specific set of hardware specifications. I'm surprised it even worked, to be honest. :)) So, I'm sorry, but I'll have to disagree with you on that one. Asking for help on a thread for a device that you don't own, after flashing a ROM that you shouldn't have flashed in the first place (cause it's not for your device), and then complaining that it doesn't work, doesn't make it ok. Or on topic, for that matter. I hope you can see my point of view.

If you really want to install Lineage OS, I would suggest:

1. flashing the one for YOUR device (if there is one).

2. always making a clean installation of the ROM.

Just an idea. :)

I got my head up my arse, sorry. Of course I didn't flash this one. I've first noticed now that this is for the z3 compact.. Holy moly. I'm thankful for your effort to drag my head outta my butt, I flashed the lineage 14 for HTC one max. Of course this isn't the rightful place to post help, when it's an entire different smartphone. Once again I'm sorry, but thankful for your effort. ?

Tried to flash the newest 1006 version. Everything works just like before, GPS still doesn't work (20+ satellites, no one has a good signal and never get a fix), 5G doesn't work (It worked when I flashed another build in this thread named lineage-14.1-20170927-UNOFFICIAL-z3c.zip, however after flashing this version it breaks again), NFC seems in good status now(Tested with MFC, able to successfully read my key card). Thanks a lot for your effort still.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] neutrinobox:
in the last version all works great for me...

Only the Camera stop working and any app can´t connect to it. I need to restart.

Picture Quality with Stock cam app is very bad....

"Open Camera" makes the best job for me.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] arsradu:
Just so you know, I've got none of the reported issues. GPS works fine, 5G(?), I'm assuming you mean 4G, works, as well.

No such issues. Default camera is ok. Not the best, and of course, not as good as Sony's. But not the worst either. AOSP's was way worse than that, in my opinion. Anyway, what did you expect? :)) It's never gonna be the same as stock. I like it the way it is.

The only real issue I had so far was with the microphone during voice calls. But turns out that was because of the Gapps. And I fixed that too.

Something I would recommend, in case you haven't done that already, and I keep saying it because it's really important, is to always format /system. Especially when switching ROMs. And I would do it even for upgrades.

Anyway, if it helps, I got none of the issues mentioned above.

QC2.0

Could please specify how to enable/install quick charge 2.0 (hvdcp)? Does anybody been able to enable this feature?

Beside this, is it possible to run sony's "super stamina mode" with this OS? Thanks!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] paparansen:
quickcharge working here, but only when charging via magnetic port.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] neutrinobox:
5Ghz Wlan works great, BT works perfect and i think SIP in car also.

Sometimes only the camera fails , App´s such Whatsapp or camera app can´t connect to the camera.

Picture quality of stock camera app is very bad. focus iss not good and light creats bright milky spots with no sharpness.

Only in "sports mode" thera are no milky spots.

The app "Open camera" does a better job but the picture quality of my galaxy S4 mini or Alcatel Idol 3 is much better.

Navigation works good, but sometimes GPS Signal gehts complety lost after drive around for an hour. I had the same issue with LOS 14.1 on Alcatel Idol 3
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] arsradu:
Whatsapp camera works fine here. Just so you know.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] neutrinobox:
Whats App camera works good, better than the stock camera app in this rom but not so good like open camera.

Battery Life is also nice.

i have a old battery in my xperia. 3 years old and the performance is not so good anymore.

But last night when i go to sleep the battery had 90% , at this morning it has still 90% , thats good.

I ´ve removed only some apps, greenifyed everything :D and it works very good.

Now it charges on my Laptop becaus i´m saving some pictures
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] TonnyCZE:
I have an RAVPower RP-UC016 charger which indicates charging voltage higher than 5V with LED.

The truth is that when I connect the charger directly into USB is shows up a message "charging". When I connect the charger via magnetic port, it shows up "charging rapidly".

In both cases (described above) the LED on the charger indicates 5V, so the difference is just in current. When "charging" I guess 1A, when "rapid charging" 2A. But the QC2.0 offers charging with 5/9/12V which speeds up charging much further. With stock Sony firmware xxx.251 (kernel and ROM) telephone was able to automatically switch to 9V, 2A charging. Is there a way how to enable full functionality of QC2.0?

[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] arsradu:
Having QC2.0 enabled by default would be nice. That kernel doesn't seem to be updated anymore. And people are complaining that it breaks WiFi.

[MENTION=4675360]tomascus[/MENTION], any chance we can implement quick charging by default, with the default kernel, so that people don't have to flash a different kernel just for that? Not to mention it might break other things.

Just a suggestion. But probably not a bad one. I don't know. Looking forward to your reply.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] beflythis:
bump on the bluetooth issue. I've updated to the latest october build (with cache clears after flashing over with the .zip - not a clean wipe install). my scenario is as such:

multiple devices connect to bluetooth; at first connect, music will sound "sluggish" or slightly slow for 1-2 seconds as though there's a problem with the bluetooth xfer, then corrects itself. total devices connected:

-car audio (music and calls)

-radar kit (valentine 1 with bluetooth dongle and Yav1 app)

-laser kit (ALP with bluetooth dongle and phone app)

I also run Waze at the same time, and while I can't identify any clear causes, i get intermittent bluetooth drops of EVERYTHING at the same time, randomly. (weak driver? something like GPS or data killing the bluetooth connect and causing to reset?)

-car audio will reconnect by itself

-radar kit disconnect causes me to close the app, wait and/or reset bluetooth on/off to properly reconnect

-laser kit will load another instance of the same app, one bugged (i have to force close), another that connects and activates properly (with the weird, delayed sound when it 'activates' - not normal)

i'm also using the modded kernel for the ROM, if that might be impacting. ANY thoughts appreciated as this is really cramping my style, not to mention straight up unsafe as i **** with my phone to reconnect radar kit when it drops while i'm on the highway.

huge thanks to the devs for the continued work on the ROM and looking forward to any BT fixes (or ideas?) and new releases.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] arsradu:
Although I would always suggest to make a clean installation of the ROM (especially formatting /system), in this particular case, I'm not sure it would have helped.

Anyway, you wanted to hear our thoughts on this, so here there are mine. :)

1. Try the default kernel. Complaining about possible kernel issues on the ROM thread, without actually using that kernel, doesn't help debug this issue. :) Not to mention, assuming this IS a kernel issue, reporting it here will be not just off-topic, but also inefficient, since the person in charge of that custom kernel won't see your post. :)

2. What I think is happening in your case, is either too many devices connected at the same time. Or, radio interferences, most likely caused by the first issue.

What I would do to debug this would be to try them one by one. Turn off everything, and use them one at a time. See if it makes a difference.

I'm also thinking this might have something to do with the BT version used by those devices. If they're older BT versions (like 2.0 or older), there might be some compatibility issues.

Again, these are just my thoughts. I could be very well wrong. But...I never tried connecting the phone to so many devices at the same time. Not sure it's supposed to work. :))
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] ssdnvv:
+1 from myself!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] beflythis:
thanks! your post got me thinking and some quick searches got me digging into the system settings around battery optimization, adding the bluetooth service and other car apps to the "do not optimize" list in the power optimization section! (other folks were suggesting this in the yav1 forums).

appreciate the post!!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Infy_AsiX:
Speaking of which. I wanted to check is exFAT working for everyone? I get a notification that SD is corrupt while it works on old stock. Is this kernel dependent? I'm using someone755's kernel12. Peculiarly it's still accessible and usable by some but not all apps.

Edit: Nevermind, it turns out mounting a second partition like ext4 causes the system to think that partition is corrupted, whereas on stock MM there's no notification. Now I just need to figure out why Google Play Music doesn't allow selecting the external storage location and reports as removed.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Infy_AsiX:
So I'm almost done setting up my second Z3C on this ROM for daily use. Just tested the call mic for the first time and it didn't work, on the 27/9 build for OMS. This was a clean install but since has ARISE sound on it. Tried the fix and it works but you'd best hold your phone upside down. *The bottom speaker doesn't play call audio so actually don't :crying:

- Stock .291 has both top and bottom mic's picking up at seemingly equal volume.

- On 27/9 before the fix the top doesn't work in call and the bottom actually does but extremely quietly. Blowing into the port registers the noise.

- On 27/9 after the fluence edit the top works like stock in call. The bottom is the seemingly dead but is actually super extremely soft. Edit: Tested more and the top is pretty soft that it won't detect voice unless it's placed in front of your mouth and it's still soft, you won't manage to use the earpiece at the same time either.

update edit: I tested again and it's suddenly working without the fluence fix now. My earpiece hardware is half volume on the receiving device I was testing, made it seem softer than it was. Could perhaps be working then.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] whc2001:
I mean the 5G wireless network. In the previous version I can see my 5G SSID in WiFi settings but with this version I cannot. Also, sorry for the GPS problem, it's actually my phone's issue.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] arsradu:
Yeah, I got it in the end. :)

The "G" in 4G (carrier network) stands for "generation". For WiFi, it's 5GHz (frequency), not 5G. That's what got me confused. Sorry, may bad. :) All clear now.

As for the actual problem, well, it seems to be working fine here.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] madvinegar:
You need to go to advanced wifi settings and select your continent. After that reboot, the 5ghz networks will be shown in your list and you can connect to them.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] arsradu:
Interesting... Though, funny enough, I didn't have to select anything on my end. And it's actually nothing selected in Wi-Fi region. :)) TBH, I didn't even know about this setting until today. LOL

WPA supplicant patched oms version ie krack fix
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Kucharskov:
Could you sir tell me what mean "oms" version? What's the differences?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] arsradu:
Hi man,

Thanks for the ROM. I tried it. Unfortunately, just like previous iterations of your ROM, you can cook an entire dinner (complete with dessert) on the phone, that's how hot it is. And not in games or something. Looks like the smallest task makes the phone incredibly hot. And not good hot. :))

Also, if I may, and again, it's not that I don't appreciate your work, but in my humble opinion, it's not quite fair to publish your ROM in other people's threads. :) I understand there might be some competition going on here, and it's always good to have options to choose from, but that doesn't make it ok... Just my honest opinion, of course.

Anyway, personally I'll wait for tomascus' version. Not because I wouldn't need the updated patch for WPA2. I think everyone does. And again, thank you very much for your work. I truly do appreciate it. :) But because of how hot the phone becomes when using your ROM. I mean, seriously. It's concerning enough to me to make me revert to tomascus' version. It would be nice if you could look into it though. I'm surprised no one else noticed this issue before. I'm pretty sure it's kernel related. Not sure which processes are kept so high, but anyway. It is what it is. :)

Again, thank you very much for your work. Please, continue to improve it. And I'm looking forward to the next iterations of your ROM.

Cheers! :)

Thanks for the feed back guys, do try and get a log.

I did ask Tomascus if I should drop it in his thread. I guess in future maybe I won't.

I am especially interested why you think its kernel related, could you run me through the reasoning here?

In case anyone is interested my sources are as always on my got, and your welcome to diff them with the official lineageOS sources from which they are forked.

[MENTION=4901061]mcgi5sr2[/MENTION] latest build seems fine so far no overheating... Been using it for over 12 hours....will drop in a log if anything happens...
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] arsradu:
Usually, when processes are keeping the CPU at high load for too long, the phone starts to overheat. And, for as far as I know, that's decided by the kernel. Please, correct me if I'm wrong. Now, this is to be expected for intensive apps like games. Not really normal for browsing the settings, or making a phone call. Also, this is based on my previous experience building ROMs, using custom ROM and just my general knowledge (which could be very well wrong in this case). I have to admit, I didn't go too deep to see what happens in this particular case. So I do apologise if this is not what's happening here. But it can't be a coincidence that this only happens with your ROMs. The data is the same. Same apps, and I'm using the phone exactly the same way. Only the ROM is different.

I think I could try to flash the boot.img file (haven't done stuff like that in a loong time lol) and see if it still occurs. This should also determine whether or not this is a kernel issue (as I suspected) or maybe something else.

Also, please, don't get me wrong. I'm not trying to make you or your ROM look bad. I also feel that discussing your ROM on this thread is not very productive, and a bit off-topic. :) And, obviously, I had no idea you had tomascus' consent for this. If that's the case, then all fine from my point of view. I just don't like it when people do that in general. Because you're kinda sorta...taking people from one developer and bringing them to yourself... And unfortunately I've seen that before. That's why I feel like this might not be quite a fair approach. :) But again, I didn't know that you had an agreement here, so my apologies for getting this the wrong way. Now, focusing on the issue at hand (quite literally lol), uhm, I could be wrong on the source of the overheating. Still, I found it weird that it only happens with your ROMs. I tried AOSP too, by the way. Same thing.

Anyway, let's not discuss these issues here. Since they are not related to tomascus' ROM. I would love to talk to you more about these issues, But I feel that we should continue in the proper context. Especially so that other people, using those ROMs, can participate to the discussion and take note of the issue (if there's a real issue and not just some weird coincidence happening with my particular phone).
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] mcgi5sr2:
I dont want you or your people, I built the ROM from LOS sources like tomascus does. It was built for myself as I wanted the krack fixes. I asked if tomascus would like me to upload it as he is busy right now.

I literally did it from the kindness of my heart, as an adult I don't give a hoot about XDA politics, whose ROM etc. I am just after about a good rom for my device, which is why I build.

If you have an issue my reply to you is the same to everyone in this thread regardless of background.

Logs or gtfo
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] arsradu:
Man, I'm sorry if my message upset you in any way. Reading your reply makes me think it clearly did. And I do apologise for that. I understand the reason why you posted here was not to take users away from this ROM. I understand that. And I appreciate your effort. Especially since I know it's not easy. I've built ROMs too. So I know what kind of resources does it take, not to mention time spent on debugging all sorts of issues. I told you, it's just that I've seen this done before, and I did not appreciate it. That's all. :) I'm not saying this was the reason why you did it. I'm not saying anything of such sort. I'm only saying I've seen this before. So, you don't have to explain anything. The simple fact that you've got tomascus' consent is good enough for me. :)

By the way, I also don't give a ratt's ass about politics in general, or XDA's in particular. I'm just speaking from experience. And sharing my thoughts on the whole thing. I hope you understand. :)

The problem is that now the thread is split in two. One half composed of users who installed the version posted on the first page. And another one of users who installed your ROM. And the feedback will be mixed and confusing. THIS is why I thought posting this in its own thread would be a better idea. Cause now we won't know which issue belongs to which ROM. And it just makes things harder to debug, in my opinion.

Again, I'm very sorry if I offended you in any way. I understand the reason behind this and I truly do appreciate the effort. Even though it might not look like it :))

As for the actual overheating issue, I'll reflash your ROM, try it for a little while longer, on a clean environment, with no 3rd party apps, and if I still encounter this issue (hope not, but who knows), I'll come back with logs so you can take a look.

Thank you very much for your support. :)

Statusbar hard to pull out

Hey Guys,

I am experiencing some really strange behavior since a few weeks. The statusbar is very hard to pull down - sometimes it does not work at all. Using the developer tools to show touch points, my inputs are recognized. The really strange thing is, that pulling down the bar in the lock screen works as easy as it was before - so it can't be an hardware issue. Done clean flash with current ROM and ROM from 21.08., behavior is still the same.

Has anyone an idea?

Best, Dennis

Hey! when about to wait test assemblies android oreo?:o
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] tonz87:
I had the same problem few months ago and i had to change the whole screen.

Sadly it's a "common" problem that affects some batches of production of the Z3c (mostly the early ones), your phone touch screen it's going to die in a couple of months from now and there's nothing you can do to prevent it.

The problem always start from the top side of the phone and after that it will spread all over the screen.

I used two workarounds to delay it, the first one was installing Xposed Edge (root needed) for adding a new gesture to bring down the status bar, the second one was installing "Drop Down Status Bar" app from the play store (it's a bit uncomfortable compared to the Xposed module mentioned above but it works).

With these two methods i struggled with the faulty screen for nearly 3 months but in the end it became almost unusable.
