Sim issues was somewhat true back in the days. But it might still be there today judging from fridam post and yours?

If you have sim lock and have issue with this it is generally a feature marked "unstable" in cm/LineageOS, aosp based roms.

Many abandoned it years ago including me when flashing roms due to that no one could unlock the phone when booting.

You were stuck on the lock screen unless you removed the sim or you had to go back to stock rom and then remove sim lock. Especially on HTC devices this is a nightmare finding the correct RUU or you could flash a sense based rom, remove the sim lock and then go back to the rom you wanted to use. So I never use sim lock pin on my devices.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fridam:
What i did was, first i connected my phone to my pc. I relocked my bootloader via flashtool. After i opened the xperia companion program to start a repair. This will restore the phone, i did not use my stock firmware from flashtool. Aferwards i unlocked the bootloader via flashtool again. In twrp i did a factory reset and flashed the newest twrp and flashed the nougat rom.

NO SIM issues with this RR ROM

Sorry folks if some got mislead by a question I asked the community/Fridam a few posts back about another of the OP's ROMs (his XOSP ROM) where the SIM is not detected. THIS RR ROM has NO SIM issues. Apologize again for any confusion created (which apparently was).
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mac231us:
sadly going back to stock custom / flyme (based off cm 12.1)....I thought I had fixed the low volume issue by modifying mixer.xml but apparently not the echo issue that then crops up when volumes are increased (today through 2 calls it did not pass the test as callers at other end could hear their voice - had to disconnect and use another device to talk to them)

nothing to do with the rom or dev....this has been an issue on cm/aosp for goodness knows how long except for some samsung implementations and cm10/11 versions on this device if I recall correctly...something to do with some feedback gain of the internal mic but not sure-raising in call volume (and spkr) gets better speakerphone and call volume but the echo comes up for the person on the other end-as much as folks spend most of their time doing other things on these 'phones', to me calling experience is the first thing I look for...so back to stock custom existenze (or flyme)

Hi

Thanks for sharing this rom, this is a amazing rom, but after install this rom, my mobile data (3G and 2G internet) not worker, all setting is ok, wifi is conected but mobile data does not work, i set apn successfully but not work.

How solve this problem?!?

My device: ZU 6802
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] OmarKhalifa:
Just Switch the MODE to 3G , then Before using mobile data Activate airplane mode then Deactivate it .
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] sieben43:
Hello there.

First of all, thanks for your hard work on this rom, I'm glad to see the Z Ultra finally got a working Nougat Rom.

I had to come back to it when my current phone broke. I used it before on CM12.1 as a media device, but wanted to test out a Nougat Rom on this model and this one seems really nice.

The only problem I'm running into are random wifi drops every 10-30 seconds, I'm able to manually reconnect immediately, but it's still very annoying of course as videos and downloads are being interrupted.

Cellular Network works fine though, as well as everything else.

Maybe any of you has an idea of what I could do, I already reset the network settings and tried connecting to different hot spots, still no change.

Edit: Never mind, I think I've found a solution.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Censto:
Great room but

After install,

Somthing wrong with sound, sometimes it's disappear.

When talking, screen go off. Can turn on only with lock and unlock.

Battery drain faster than on stock.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mac231us:
WARNING EXPERIMENTALOk folks....maybe a solution here for in-call volume without echo

Warning this is experimental at best....do your DD first

105 in values below maybe too high...dropping it to 97 and trying that too

of course for those like me who cannot work with the ultra-low in call volume and almost non-existent speakerphone volume (for calls)

mixer.xml in the etc folder in system

changed value here to 105 (yes much higher than the default but still within range and no worries there)

lines 31 in initial mixer lines, 920 in handset-voice-cfg

<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="105" />

also in handset-voice-cfg

line 924 changed value to 85 from 77

<ctl name="IIR2 INP1 Volume" value="85" />

changed from 83 to 105 in handset line 1031

<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="105" />

and this is key to ELIMINATING the echo (for other caller to hear his/her own voice because of increase in in-call volume)

in handset-mic line 1039 83 down to 77 and line 1041 12 down to 11

<ctl name="DEC3 Volume" value="77" />

<!-- 63 % of 19 (range 0 - 19) Register: 0x15F -->

<ctl name="ADC4 Volume" value="11" />

EDIT

changed from 83 to 97 in handset-secondary-mic line 1053

<ctl name="DEC2 Volume" value="97" />

attached is the file

now I tested on the RR MM version (simply because it is a pain to go back to custom stock from nougat...cannot simply flash stuff from twrp 3.0.2 or even restore twrp backup-just won't boot-maybe there is a simple workaround but have to reflash from flashtool etc)

now I do not pretend to know what all these changes actually do but have some fair idea so am not a resource here if you already did not know that!

this should work in Nougat RR too as the format and file is basically the same if not unchanged and the same in call volume and speakerphone low volumes exist

attached the default (from RR MM) mixer file as well

hope this helps...this may get me back to Nougat as I will try it later...

thing I miss FROM the custom ROMs in the AOSP/lineage stuff (ported features from other Xperia models) is the DTW double tap to wake...pain to grope for the power button or even volume up down rockers especially with cover on

double tap to sleep DTS is nice but not as useful as DTW (DTS has multiple implementations..lock screen, soft button to sleep apps, double tap status bar etc) but DTW is awesome to have

all in kernel as I understand
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] zapper_master:
Thanks for the edits. However, what lines could be edited for the "speaker phone" speaker, to listen to voicemails for example when you hit the "audio output" (on stock rom) to listen via speaker phone, hope that makes sense to you ? as that volume is so incredibly low.

Thanks for your help
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mac231us:
I missed out on that one in terms of posting the changes in the message..the file already has the changes

line 755 in speaker section (83 was changed to 98)

again...this is experimental so if you see any odd changes then revert back to the default...I changed these one by one to verify their influence on the tasks I outlined...they worked...just the speaker sounds harsh (perhaps 98 is too much)

<path name="speaker">

<ctl name="SLIM RX1 MUX" value="AIF1_PB" />

<ctl name="SLIM RX2 MUX" value="AIF1_PB" />

<ctl name="SLIM_0_RX Channels" value="Two" />

<ctl name="RX7 MIX1 INP1" value="RX1" />

<ctl name="RX7 MIX1 INP2" value="RX2" />

<!-- 67 % of 124 (range 0 - 124) Register: 0x2E7-->

<ctl name="RX7 Digital Volume" value="98" />

<!-- 100 % of 8 (range 0-8) Register: 0x1E0-->

<ctl name="SPK DRV Volume" value="8" />

</path>

I used notepad++ to edit offline...copied to storage then by root explorer to system/etc folder...gave the correct permissions..rebooted (need to reboot for changes to take effect)..then tried calling others/another phone I have (went far from the ZU to avoid hearing my voice...simulating a far off caller...no echo-verified by an actual call as well and decent in-call volume)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] zapper_master:
Thanks so much, I will tweak so its not so harsh, I'm just changing line by line since there aren't too many changes, after first copying the file and re-naming to .bak, in case things go wonky. I really appreciate your help, Thanks so much

thanks in advance !!!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mac231us:
were you able to get it to work? Strangely but maybe am doing something different, I could not reproduce again the changes despite changes to the mixer. I gave up but found out this.

the Cm12.1 (yes old now) for this device has ZERO issues with call echo...I boosted the in call and speaker volumes on that one and have ZERo issues on echo or unwanted feedback to person at other end of call..

not sure what it is...maybe it is some configuration (not necessarily just gain and volume levels) or some libraries

regardless cm12.1 has no issues and works perfect from a call standpoint...speaker and in call volume are loud (after tweaking) and no distortion and NO echo...(done over 20 calls and long calls too in various environments and locations...completely working)

The error has nothing to do with the TWRP version. The problem is, that you try to flash RR on an incompatible data partition. Just do a wipe in TWRP. (Note that this will delete all your userdata on the phone.) And then try again.

Hello to everyone in the thread!

First of all thanks to [MENTION=5970333]markakash[/MENTION] for this great rom! Keep up the work!

Also thanks for all folks in the thread for their valuable advices.

I have a C6833. I have installed the latest rom 5.8.3 20170525 with gapps 7.1. I used twrp 3.0 by Alia.

So far the only serious issue I have is making phone calls (quite serious in case of a mobile phone I reckon :laugh: ):

I am having the same issue as it has been reported already by [MENTION=2380395]gasedak[/MENTION], [MENTION=1131791]pmachim[/MENTION], @ xMasterLuke, so it looks as a valid issue:

-The phone quite slowly recognised my SIM card, setting up was lagging.

-If I make a pnoe call, the screen goes black, I can hardly do anything.

-To get around I have to take the SIM card out to end call.

-I have to press power button several times to get the screen back.

I report the above without applying the tricks you folks have written in the thread (installing a dialler, andromizer for memory issues, power button ends call, etc.), so I do not know yet if they help or not.

Just to make comparison: I have an old Samsung Galaxy which has Nougat 7.1.2. LineageOS installed and that one handles call normally (just a bit slow).

If I am correct about the issue, a generic help and solution would be highly appreciated.

Anyways, thanks for the rom, great work!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] sollysally:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pacsab:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So folks, I was just playing around the above mentioned problem, i.e. black screen durting calls and cannot end call.

I could found out the following:

-You can end the call if you turn on "power button ends call" function in settings.

-The black screen issue turns out to be the well know proximity sensor problem with xperia devices. As far as I could find out there is no satisfactory solution for it, you can only disable it. To do so you have to change the bult-in dialler apk for a modified one. You can find the modified apk and how to do it in the following thread:

https://xdaforums.com/nexus-4/help/how-to-disable-proximity-sensor-nougat-t3453008/page3

(Do not worry that it is a thread about Nexus 4, the dialer.apk which is shared there is based on LineageOS, so it works on ResurrectionRemix as well. As it is a system .apk simple install is not enough, you have to play tricks. I used Root Explorer).

-After replacing the dialler .apk, the black screen problem has gone, HOWEVER a new problem came up :laugh: : The well known "low volume during calls" problem. This is a general Nougat problem, almost on all devices, you can hardly here anything during a call, neither on the mic, nor on the speaker. You can read about it related to xperia devices here:

https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z5-Z5-Compact-Z5-Premium/Low-volume-during-for-calls-after-Android-7-update/td-p/1194424

It looks as there is no "official" solution for it (or I could not find), so you have to play around with the xmle file that handles volumes in adnroid: mixer_paths.xml

To do so you need an xml editor and Root Explorer to change/modify it. Here is a short thread about it:

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2699920

I played around with it (I am not an expert in xml editing), and the result is that I could fix the speaker low volume (it is ok now), but I could not fix the in call mic (or whatever it is speaking to you when your phone is on your ear and not on speaker :laugh:). So I still can hardly hear anything during a call.

So if anyone knows which line/path name to be edited in the mixer_paths.xml for in call sound volume, that would be a great help.

I hope I could help others as well.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SonyXperiaZUser:
Guys watch out for the speakers!!! My speaker died basically because of wrong calibration. I was watching some YouTube video and suddenly the sound became quiet and distorted! Don't use the speakers on full volume!!!!!! This ROM seems to overdrive the speakers above XMAX.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:
I've have the same issue on other roms here like RXSW Z5 experience and the worst is DStrikersZU ROM that almost broke my speaker.

But I haven't had this on aosp roms.

Anyways I don't get these sound mods. They make it worse than doing anything spectacular.

Dear "markakash"!

It's an awesome effort no doubt. The interface and the customization options are really fabulous. However, the 02 x issues of camera being poor and that of the proximity sensor still exist and really need to be resolved as both these features are used very frequently.

I used RR 5.8.3 Nougat 7.1.2 with Pico GApps 7.1 on my c6833. Regretfully, I now have returned to Sony's default ROM (through Sony Xperia Flash Tool) because I needed the camera and proximity sensor back.

Waiting for the said issues to be resolved so that I could be able to return to RR.
