[Xperia Z2 Android Development] 0LDST4R:
First, thanks for your feedback.

It's like it is - CarbonROM is the ONLY one where it's impossible to play NFS NL - fc during first start. I wrote it earlier, i tested various devices, Xperia Z, Galaxy S4 both with LOS 15.1, so Oreo can't be the reason. Further our Z2 is able to run NFS NL with RR, CypherOS, and the alpha LOS 15.1 - tested. Unfortunally these roms aren't maintained anymore - CarbonROM is the only one with regular security patches and updates, but i can't use it because my (very special) personal needs. That's why it's really sad for me that i must stay on the good, but outdated final RR build. I don't understand WHY the game crashes on CarbonROM Oreo, i don't have this knowledge. Maybe it's totally crap, but if i'm not wrong CarbonROM is based on AOSP - RR, CypherOS, and OmniROM are LOS-based, maybe something is missing in CarbonROM? Librarys or whatever? Dunno. The same happens on my Z3C, ALL Oreo custom roms except CarbonROM are able to run NFS NL. So, i'm absolute out of ideas. Maybe a dev can explain WHY it doesn't work.

Thanks,

Greetz,

0LDST4R

Please try it out yourself, final RR, CypherOS and LOS 15.1 alpha are able to run NFS NL. Of course Oreo. Confusion in my head. :eek:

Edit:

Of course i asked earlier in this thread about my special problem, someone wrote that even CarbonROM Nougat wasn't able to run the game. It makes me crazy. :)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] muneebjaved:
Would like to thank the developers of this ROM(Oreo version), was about to discard Z2, but I decided to try this ROM and I like it. working pretty smooth for now. The only issue I found for now is that the gallery is not showing pictures. But have worked my way around it using google photos. But please let me know if there is a fix. Thanx..
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Kali_307:
Gallery is working. Maybe you didn't grant permission for storage.

I very much love the rom, works very nice and without errors.

Only the data connection drops out allot, putting into airplane mode and back helps. Or sometimes restart. Any idea how to get this fixed?

Could it be because of a firewall with vpn i installed before or maybe the adblock?

It's like there's a caching problem also, pictures in my Facebook app get blanked or only appear after reload.

Or messages in messenger are sent with delay.

I see this by the data transfer sign in the menu bar also. Works delayed.

Dalvik.VM.heapsize , change it to 512 on build.prop and be happy
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Godyn:
I have latest version.

It might be related to the doze function? Happens allot when screen is turned off on.

Or most probably because of switching networks.

I notice it happened.

What version are you on and in what country?

Also problem that some apps like maps are half English half my language Dutch.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] maisdoiscorregos:
Last version, Brazil. I notice that by rolling my facebook timeline, at a certain point, the photos stop appearing. I'm forced to close the app and reopen to reload. In other applications too, it seems like it loses the connection in a few moments and does not return, only when it closes the app and opens again.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] 0LDST4R:
Thanks for reply, will try it and report. :good:

Edit:

i see in the build.prop of the 12/11 build the value for Dalvik.VM.Heapsize is allready set to 512, all other Dalvik values are identical compared with the final AICP Rom from 07/2018 which i'm on. So thanks anyways, but your suggestion can't be the solution.

chasing focus issues

After installing the 20181211 build, my cameras could not focus

yet. I downloaded the last few builds and tested them.

First I tested the plain ROMs:

1. factory reset

2. wipe system and both caches

3. install ROM

4. boot and take a few pictures

All builds from september to december worked fine.

Them I installed magisk on the december build: camera worked fine.

Next I installed opengapps 20181117 nano (previously downloaded): camera had focus problems.

Upgraded opengapps nano to 20181212 version: camera had focus problems.

Problem was solved by installing opengapps micro 20181212.

If someone can understand this issue and clarify, please do so ;)

Xperia Z2 D6502 Baseband patch not working

Xperia Z2 D6502 Baseband patch did not solve my `unable to detect sim card` issue after update from previous version to one from 11.12.2018.

Edit: after few reboots sim card was recognized, will report if the problem occurs again.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Godyn:
It's lots better but not perfect yet
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] r34c7:
Was perfect, now in calls the other party can't hear me talking until after a reboot. Problem persists only in the phone app, not messenger or viber. Got a lot worse in the last update, if I can help with anything like providing logs and stuff, feel free to PM me (D6503 here). Otherwise the ROM is awesome.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] AzraelX:
Does anyone know about DotOS ? seems that is a cool rom but not officially available for z2. but there is an unofficial version of that available in Russian & Chinese forums. Did anyone get this? :) (Pardon me for going the wrong way in a wrong thread. but just had to ask this here :o )

DotOS

- wi-fi 5GHz works as crookedly as on AikP13.1 (almost does not work: unsure :) it seems to be solved (it worked for me);

- fast charging works;

- Built-in player reads files if they are on the internal memory. Ringtones must also lie inside. Third-party player, for example AIMP, reads from a flash drive;

- the microphone is working normally. (although I had to disassemble the smartphone and blow through all the holes);

- the camera is like nothing. At half press focus does not work. He generally works by himself - continuously. I noticed that when the camera key is half pressed, the shade slightly changes (warm / cold);

- warm a little;

- OTG works (flash drives, ethernet, audio cards);

- there are problems with receiving messages (VC, telegrams, Viber), they come only if the application is running

Carbon is the best for now

Nah, we had these issues in previous builds (almost a year ago) but it's been fine since, check if you have the latest Rom, Gapps and instagram app.

---------- Post added at 12:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:42 AM ----------

Speaking of which, I haven't been able to post pics from the Instagram app (using the gallery to post a pic from the phone's memory) for a long time, the menu stays blank and occasionally flashes the pictures for a split second, like it's trying to populate with thumbnails and failing over and over, can anyone confirm this happening to them?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Vo0zie:
Newest version of rom.

Notifications sound stop working continuously I have to restart the phone but it works again only for couple minutes. Headphone jack doesn't work either, when I connect something i can hear that it connect but phone doesn't recognize that something is connected to the jack. What else, screen brightness, lowest setting is still too bright I have to turn on night mode to achieve proper brightness level. It's impossible to watch videos online using browser, videos stops working sometimes immediately sometimes after minute or two. Sometimes phone range goes to 0 but only for couple seconds.

5Ghz WiFi works flawlessly, battery life is outstanding 3 days with wifi on.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] AzraelX:
Yeah. You are right. I'm also facing these problems.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] kgursu:
Sorry for late reply. I flashed both at the same time. Is that not suitable?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Cygmon0:
No. That's the correct way to install the ROM.

Flash "ROM" and "GAPPS FULL" from opengapps.

You should have no problems

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Scarr3:
Hi guys, I'm using the last Carbon Rom version and i found out, with the app Naptime, that the Doze behavior settings are misplaced between them, causing my phone to not deep sleep properly.

I put the right values at each setting solving the problem for a while, but from time to time it turn back to the wrong values and some times I try to change again but when I close and reopen the app i see it doesn't stick until I reboot and change again.

I've tried to wipe dalvik and system caches from recovery but nothing seems to solve this issue.

Maybe the app Naptime could be the problem? I've searched for another app that change each setting separately but didn't found anything.

Please, if someone could teach me how to find and change permanently the file that contains the Doze settings, I will be very grateful for that!

Other than that it's a very stable Rom to use daily.

Big problem while dirty flashing

Can someone help me on this?

My system became unusable after Magisk 18 has become unstable. The system is freezing, then bootlooping. I could not find any reason for it. As a last resort, I tried to dirty flash latest ROM. The result is on the screen. I tried to overwrite TWRP on Fastboot mode, but the result is the same.

Any solution to this?

Thanks.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] ali6944:
You can try extracting the boot.img from the Rom zip, then flashing it with adb in Fastboot, Then flash magisk 17 in TWRP before booting up, hope it works.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] kgursu:
I can uninstall Magisk 18. Is that the culprit? Using version 17 is the solution? Is this anyway confirmed?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] ali6944:
Hey you can give it a try, this is in no way confirmed but the last time i had these sorts of problems it was because of a new magisk build, reflashing boot and an older magisk did the trick for me.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] kgursu:
Completed dirty flashing, nothing changed. It seems Wireless connection is somewhat corrupted. Is there a way to fix it, esp. from Recovery?

Update: Version 17.3 of Magisk seems to lift the issue of freezing and bootlooping. The only issue remains is the broken Wireless, which might occur during the break of Magisk, while I use AFWall as the firewall and I couldn't completely disable the firewall, because Magisk was not fully operational.

I'm trying to reaapply the rules and hope this would solve my problem...

Update2: Yes, Wireless seems to be working now.

Magisk 18 is not fully compatible with my setup then. It may break one day, even without any proper reason...

I'll wait for future releases to try the 18 version line again.

Thanks.

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Kamairo:
Has anyone else problems with the sd card speed on this rom? I am not sure if this is really ROM related or if the speed of the SD card is in general slow. I updated mine recently (from an older San Disk Extreme 64GB to a Samsung Evo Plus 128GB), but the speeds are insanely slow. I get maybe 13MB/s write speed and 20MB/s read. Also copying files is very unstable regarding speed, it drops to 5MB/s every 5 seconds and then goes up to 20MB/s (and hence the 13MB/s average). The SD Card is definitely not fake, I tested it with an USB 3.0 card reader on my PC and I get up to 80MB/s write and 93MB/s read, even with large files over a longer period of time. I also have the feeling that the older SD card was in fact quicker even though it's slower rated and also slower tested with the card reader.
