I use .10 here in southern california (l.a. county and orange county). I tried .17 first and was very steady with 3g connectivity but didnt download as fast for me as .32 did for the internet which i use all the time. .32 was good for me for internet but never had full bars in areas i did with .17 and i got dropped calls and would lose signal a lot with .32. I then tried .10 and the battery is great and the phone is almost always connected to 3g and if not then i get full bars on edge network. Internet speeds are great for me on .10 as well. After using .10 ive never tried another radio because i never had a reason too, dont think it could get better then this for me. Never had a dropped call and always crystal clear phone conversations for both parties. Im currently using dutty's v1.1 for the Opera 8.65 browser cooked in. Much better and faster then stupid IE. Whoever is in charge of upgrading the OS on these phones should spend more time on a better internet browser. Id much rather have a fast and reliable internet browser before wm7. This IE we have looks like it came out of microsoft's windows 98, HAHA!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] mark43:
My 1st post ever...

I am using the original .11. Is there anyone in Eastern Washington (Yakima area or close) who is having success with a different radio. I have no complaints with the .11 but am willing to try a better one. BTW I really appreciate all who contribute to this site. When I first found xda-dev I was a little overwhelmed (as to the amount of knowledge and also how much you can do to your device.) But I read and then read some more and all of my answers have been answered w/o the need to post a question.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] deeznuts:
I totally agree!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Park City:
ok. I am sure I am missing something basic. Is no one using the 1.71.09.01 radio on ATT in the US? I have using it with HyperdragonIII and with 3.34.721.2 WWE without any problems. Good battery life and gps lock in about 15 seconds.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ai6908:
I use 1.71:D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] DanQ:
I'm using also 1.71.09.01 and I think is one the best so far. I've been using it for a while now but i'm willing to test some of the radios on the poll to see which one works better.

One more thing....all the 1.27 radios worked with WM6, but I don't know if they will work on a WM6.1 based ROM. Just curiosity.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] scotchua:
I don't know why anyone brought this thread up from the dead, but these are all WM6.0 radios, and as such i'm gonna close this.

Is there anyone working on getting CM 14 or the same Rom from the Google Pixels to S8+?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] billydroid:
We don't even have root access, let alone an unlocked bootloader to flash anything. Someone might be working on it in the eventuality of an unlocked bootloader? But probably not.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] D_Smuv_:
Dam...i was looking at the feeds from the other S8+ and they have Roms, and the whole 9. ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] thowersome:
Those must be the Exnos variants, all SD versions are currently bootloader locked. With a locked bootloader we have no access to flashing custom recoveries and with that no ROMs, root or mods
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] D_Smuv_:
Yea I researched our variants and were still locked out ?...i wonder if anyone is working on it? I guess only time will tell

Thank you very much for this rom.

Hello,

Thanks for releasing, I've flashed your new build and the WideVine DRM is working fine now. Good luck with getting the commits merged, hope this makes it to official status after your work to fix the last few broken items.

Anything left to fix at this stage? I see the camera is more or less fine, just a little perspective distortion in the camera app due to the preview window having the wrong dimensions which is very minor.

Thanks! :D

Please, look and read at -

There you can find all Informations.

I have download the ZIP File and flashed the arm 64 SU and become a new ROOT-Assortment / Selections. And now i have FULL-Root.

By me works it very good. I have tested any APP´s what are must have "root", no Problem´s.

A very great Thank´s to "andralex8" and the other Developers for his good Job.

Into the Moment i´am so Happy with my new - "LINEAGE OS".

I like it´s.
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] rintala@hakunila.com:
yes i just notice that. I install SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742 and it works great..

I am happy to see that rom can be themed by substratum... :)
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] belrik:
Read the lineage os blog post. Root is now an optional add-on so that users can use root-aware apps without installing root-cloaking software. Not difficult to install, just use arm64 from here: https://download.lineageos.org/extras

Can't install this package over newer build

lineage-14.1-20170517-UNOFFICIAL-karin.zip wont install with this recovery.

"Can't install this package over newer build" is the error message.

Can you upload a later dated rom or should I go back to the earlier TWRP?
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] HotBlack77:
This can be fixed by removing first line of the updater script.

Simply download the rom for your version, use you preferred zip tool to edit the file: META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script and remove the first line.
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] alex009988:
Thank you for the rom. At last it was released publlicaly. Everything works like a charm. Only mifare cards and stock lineage camera could be a little issue.
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] Jadog:
I've read where many users who have updated from Marshmallow to Nougat have experienced fast battery drain issues. Can anyone confirm this is not an issue with this ROM or that it has been resolved with 7.1.2?
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] belrik:
No difference for me and I've been running nougat for a few months.
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] andralex8:
I should build a new version soon.

But in all cases you can also wipe ONLY the system partition before reinstalling the rom (I do it each time, even if not mandatory it's cleaner). You let your data partition unchanged so you will not loose anything.
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] Jadog:
Ok, so I'm ready to pull the trigger on this, but I have a few questions to be sure I do it correctly. I currently have a rooted Z4 with the custom AndroPlus kernel (it's on lollipop v6.x). So no custom rom, only custom kernel with root. So to follow this guide, I would use the flashtool with the lightened ftf, and flash the new TWRP and ROM, right? Or would it be better to just restore my tablet back to original factory state and then proceed from the beginning?
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] alex009988:
You need lightened ftp in case you have android 5/6 as twrp dosent work with old bootloader. If you have any version of noogat stock. No need of ftp. Also, it might be flashed trough androplus recovery.
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] Jadog:
Perfect, thank you. Also, right now on AndroPlus I have the DRM Fix that emulates the DRM keys to allow for Sony's Image Enhancement. Will I loose that with this ROM?
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] alex009988:
Lineage dosent need any drm fix. It's only stock feature.
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] myhrdak:
the rom i was waiting for. much better battery, especially in standby. i use the tablet only on special days

and till this day it loses 3% per day (using leandroid for flightmode while display is off).

with stock nougat i lost 10% per day.
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] Jadog:
Well that's even better! Seems like the perfect solution. And from what I understand I can get full root by installing SuperSU from here using the ARM64 version and installing via TWRP?

Am I required to have an OTG cable and attach a mouse to make any of this work? Or can it be done without? Thanks for the excellent support!
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] belrik:
Great news, I know you've been working on this a long time so massive thanks from all Z4 tablet owners! Truly an impressive achievement. :)

[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] belrik:
Anticipation... Is an official build due today?
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] VeEuzUKY:
andralex8 I want to personally thank you (and everyone else throughout all these months part of this project as well) for the crazy amount of work and commitment to make this ROM a reality:)

Recently I picked up a second-hand Z4 LTE Tablet after a months of trying to choose which would be the best hardware to match possibly the best ROM. This was the thread and ROM that ultimately made me choose this tablet. I am still all stock and actually enjoying the unit because it works very well as it is, and I'm sure with this ROM, will be flying. Tomorrow I plan to start the process to get it flashed.

This said, I understand all the steps required and what I need to do, except the "Lightened ftf (update bootloader)" part and download that I have no idea what it is. Sorry for being such a noob, this is my first Sony device (after years of uninterrupted Samsung gear) so this is all kind'a starting from scratch all over again for me. If someone could give me a quick explain on what this is and why I needed, I'd be super appreciative.. and in advance sorry for my utter ignorance.

Once again, thanks for everyone's work and dedication to make this ROM happen:)
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] alex009988:
You need this to update bootloader in case you have android 5/6. Without last bootloader, you cant get in twrp by pressing vol+ and power button or restart to twrp.
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] VeEuzUKY:
Thanks for the explanation. My Tab is already on the latest firmware from Sony, Android 7.11. And I checked for more updates just now and it tells me I already have the latest one. So will I still need this extra file to update the bootloader or am I already done and good to go?

Of course I guess I still need to Unlock the bootloadet itself, something I have no idea how to do as it's my first time, but should be simple and will figure it out.

Thanks again for the info. Great thread, awesome ROM, amazing Tablet:)
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] alex009988:
No, you wont.

You can easily unlock your bootloader by comand line or flashtool but you lose drm keys.

In order to save these unnecessary (this is only my value judgement) keys you need to downgrade to android 5.0, and do some more steps(find the thread about it on your own)

Rom is indeed fine, it works even faster than stock. But I wont ever buy another sony tablet or phone. Not only absence of third-party developrs, but also for short support period by sony. We've been stiffed!!!
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] VeEuzUKY:
Thanks for the clarification. I don't need the DRM Keys at all so Ill just Unlock the bootloader, flash the recovery and the new ROM.

And I can understand your frustration.regarding Sony's lack of product support. See here. But trust me, it can be much worse. For example I have a much newer Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 LTE and it's still on LOLLIPOP!!! That's right, and no firmware upgrade to anything newer on my region, Hong Kong, period! Not ONE OS upgrade, nothing! Of course that came as the new S3 that is on Nougat. There are some unofficial MM and Nougat ROMs available for the S2 of course, but I can't flash them because I need at least to be on a stock MM ROM to be able to flash an MM or higher custom ROM. Now that is unbelievable and the main reason I am done with Samsung on all fronts.

So yeah Sony is stiffing us, but compared to Samsung, angels!
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] VeEuzUKY:
Ive managed to unlock the bootloader of my Z4 Tablet LTE after countless hours playing around with Flashboot, FlashTool, ADB, Android SDK, Fastboot and Sone's own EMMA Flashing tool just to get the proper drivers installed and the job done.

This is all new to me, never used Xperia devices before. Ive had Samsung devices for almost 10 years and this is a totally different game for me and I must say a nightmare compared to how its done on Samsung devices. Anyway, I got it done NOT using any of Sony's updated Fastboot .inf Drivers (that and everything else didn't work to get the Tablet recognized) and the only thing that finally worked was using a Minimal ADB and Fastboot 1.3 set of old drivers I found at a random 5 year old post. Incredible..

Anyway, on my way to get this ROM installed, I downloaded the TWRP image but now have no clue what app to use the get it flashed (or how). Could someone tell me how to get this into the device? Fastboot will not work on my Windows 7 x64 PC.. nothign works actually aside from MinimalADB.

Thanks a lot:)
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] VeEuzUKY:
I have successfully installed the ROM and GAPPS and all works great except the very last step: root.

Ive successfully flashed the root add-on and enabled root access for apps in the developers options. However, no apps can access root. Ive installed the SuperUser app from the Play Store thinking maybe I need it, but it fails to run with a "SU Binary Busy" error message when I open it.

This is the first time I run into issues gaining root on a device. What I am doing wrong? Do I need other apps, another form of SU, BusyBox, something else to gain root?

Thank you very much:)
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] andralex8:
Hello. Thank you for the feedback. I only saw your messages today.

The superSu app is intended to works with the supersu binary. The add-on binary is different from supersu. The system should ask to allow an app to use root by a similar way than supersu do.

Try to flash the su add-on again? You correctly used the arm64 variant of the add-on?
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] andralex8:
The official build is new from today. I did not tested yet but it should works the same as the last rom I released since I pushed everything to the official repos. Once I'm sure it's working I will update the first post to point to the nightly builds ☺.
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] VeEuzUKY:
andralex8, thanks for the reply. You're absolutely correct. I had installed the non arm64 version of root, and even though you got flashed correctly and could be enabled within the developers options, the apps could not access it. Ive uninstalled it and reflect the arm64 version, that one works flawless immediately. I was not aware that this run already required exclusively arm64 versions of system apps. Now I know. All of my 3rd-party apps from previous ROMs and hardware are all 32 bit. Most even don't have arm64 versions now yet. I hope all those legacy apps still work normally with this ROM though. The

fact is that most third party retail apps today I still not 64 bit ready.

This ROM is flawless by the way. LineageOS with this 3 year old hardware works better than any new Tablet currently on the market.

Thanks again for all the time you put in making this happen along with everyone else that contributed. Killer hardware/software package:)
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] andralex8:
I installed the new nightly and it works like expected ?. I just had an error when trying to install because the data partition was incompatible (no reason since it's the same sources, but maybe a mechanism in the zip script to force a wipe when switching from unofficial to official). So I do :

- backup the data partition

- wipe data

- install the rom

- restored data

But you can do a full wipe if you face problems.
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] belrik:
IIRC this is because official builds are signed and signature must match to accept data.
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] belrik:
I did the same data backup & data wipe & install & data restore that andralex described, working fine on the official build now.

Thanks!
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] andralex8:
I even had problems with some apps crashing after updating and keeping the data. You can try but it's probably better to do a full wipe
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] tottelicious:
Im overall really liking this rom! However, sound is choppy when using a DAC via OTG. Maybe hard to troubleshoot, but is it something you could look at?
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] belrik:
Yeah, looks like the app data is no longer valid for many apps. Wipe it is then!

I am currently running official 20171116 and it works very well!
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] alex009988:
This is only flashtool problem. It can flash or update last stock only if you have original stock. Any custom, you get the problem.

To overcame the problem.

You should or must use twrp stock backup. If you don't have it,use emma to flash old stock, then last version with flashtool
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] torben5247:
Thanks for the reply. :good::good:

I have also flashed my z3 tablet using flashtool after lineage os.

Is it only on z4 tablet that flashtool is´nt working after lineage os have been installed?

[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] alex009988:

Then you get it, i've downloaded and used it without any registration. After emma, you must activate your tablet. Otherwise, it also impossible to flash last firmware with flashtol. If you dont like emma, try to flash some old version at first with flashtool then last

Hi there,

many thanks to all those guys that made Lineage 14.1 on my Sony Z4 Wifi Tablet possible; It is working like a charm :D

The only thing that is not working for me is the automatic update procedure. (I know how to it manually but I like to have it working so my wife can do it on her own if necessary ;) )

I have installed LOS 14.1 including the root addon, enable root for apps and adb and choose the actual LOS build in the software section of the settings.

It will download the newest version and if I try to start installation a dialog came up that tells me that the tablet will restart into recovery mode to install the new update.

But thats all; No restart, no installation.

Have you any idea what is missing?
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] Midyr:
Sio is decrytion working, or not with TWRP?

Midyr
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] andralex8:
Yes, but maybe hardware encryption could be a problem?

For me it's working. I use encryption and twrp ask me the password at bootup and can access the partition. I know it because I built twrp and added things needed to make it works ;).

There was a discussion about switching to hardware encryption for the kitakami devices (Z4-Z5 devices), and we switched to hardware encryption in October. I don't remember if I used it for encryption or the previous version. I will check that once I have the time.
[Xperia Z4 Tablet Android Development] Midyr:

I tried it with official TWRP and I couldn't update, because TWRP couldn't access to /data. So it seems that the official TWRP didn't work
