So a little feedback on the 20171202 build. I started a clean flash e.g wipe data/cache/art/system and flash the build + 20171202 opengapps micro package. As soon as the setup wizard shows up a lot of apps like phone/systemui/etc. FC on me. So I started it again, this time flashing the build without gapps. It was a success until I flash gapps, and Play Service FCs again. Also I tried to convert data/cache/system to f2fs but can't flash due to an error (didn't take a picture but if OP insist I can take one)
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] nhicko95:
System should be on ext4 format if you read the changelogs only data and cache are should be on f2fs
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Indie Zex:
I did a clean install with pico gapps and it works fine. Oreo gapps are still in beta, just ignore those FC warnings.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Gshrestha:
I flashed unofficial gapps :- open_gapps-arm-8.0-micro-20170824-UNOFFICIAL( posted somewhere here in xda ) and it gave a a slight error while setup ( black screen with only battery and signal icon ) I rebooted and voila it worked !! and is smooth as butter :o ( but its not buttery when i use Messenger :(

.

Plus after the phone started , i uninstalled unnecessary apps via Bloatware remover

.

Hope it helps !! :)

Is it possible to do something with paying through nfc on our device?

As i know we have no hce driver for nfc module and it's a problem

I found interesting thread about this problem

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2573842&page=20
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] :
In the setup wizard wait for all the apps to FC, then close/stop them and continue with the setup, I did the same and after passing the setup wizard, everything is smooth.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] smogf:
Exactly as above. Just go trough setup killing all FCs. Sometimes you need to get trough same wizard windows couple of time before you get to end. But after that and restart everything work as it should.

Android GO released, cant wait gettin it run on our beloved SP
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] ParanoidNemo:
If you mean Xposed, it doesn't exist for Oreo yet. It as just (a couple of month ago) been release the stable version for Nougat, if the development time will took the same there will be a lot of waiting before Oreo version is released ( I'm not blaming rovo, only saing that it's a lot of work every time and because of that he will need a lot of time to release a stable version)
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] smogf:
Yes I mean Xposed. Sorry for that :) I know that isn't any for Oreo yet. And I dont ask for it. That was an irony to [MENTION=4781836]ssjoker[/MENTION] while he give me instructions to disable proximity sensor in Oreo via Xposed module, when I asked [MENTION=2233641]AdrianDC[/MENTION] to make a proximitydisabler for this ROM.

hi adrian (the most active developer ;) )

i have same problem with ver 14/11 and 02/12 after install gapps :

when clean flash aosp with opengapps, Google service with subset apps give force close... same times

when clean flash aosp ,boot rom and reboot then flash opengapps, phone boot without problem but Google service force close (don't run)

What can solve the problem?

thanks very much for your work :good: ;)
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] kimikim0:
Why you reboot n flash gapps separately ? Just install gapps after rom that should fix your problem
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] ssjoker:
i do it but google service don't run
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] lancemark:
Reinstall ROM with gapps. Before first run remove sim and sd. On setup skip login.

After setup open Playstore login to google accout, it should work at this point. If You succeed, You can turn of phone, reinsert sim and sd and turn on. That method always worked for me from begining of this rom with gapps.

EDIT:

Don't worry about forced closes or freezes, I have them too, be patient and get through setup skiping login.

Maybe this trick should metioned in OP.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] smogf:
It was already mentioned. Just get trough startup wizard to the end - caneling/closing all FC and problem will be solved.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] hannor:
Rest assured, if our beloved SP works with "normal" Oreo, then it will work faster, smoother and stabler with its Go Edition.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] ze7zez:

If the certainty was there, the OG should also work on hardware from 2010, but it will not work because of the old kernel, which does not support all these modern solutions.

Android Oreo 8.1 - December 8th release for Sony Huashan / Sony Blue devices

>>> Fully rebased and updated projects on the initial Android 8.1 release

>>> Upgrades from 8.0 to 8.1 allowed through backuptool for GApps

>>> Clean installs of OpenGApps zips require install script changes to 8.1 and API 27

>>> Sony Huashan built with normal Android Oreo configurations, Sony Blue with Android Oreo Go

>>> One important difference with Android Go : Multitasking UI is flat on Go. Check Huashan and Blue screenshots

​

About GApps on AOSP 8.1

>>> I added support in backuptool for "8." instead of "8.0" or "8.1", hence upgrades should not be breaking

>>> Clean installs or flashing updated OpenGApps 8.0 require changes in their zip / installer.sh:

req_android_sdk="27";
req_android_version="8.1";

As Adrian told , I made changes in the zip file of open gapps 8.0 pico and flashed the same gapps....and now the ROM works without any issue ( though it lags in the first boot , after second reboot it didn't have any problem :o ) It might not be super smooth , but its smooth .

For those , who wish to flash the edited gapps , Here's the LINK hope that helps for all ( I dont know if I am allowed to attach the zip file , please let me know )
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] DahakePL:
I edited it too, it's just not smooth. Some kind of lags are present nearly everywhere in the system.

how to edit the open gapps to set api and 8.1

---------- Post added at 03:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:06 PM ----------

How to edit the install script in gapps to set api level and version 8.1
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Klaus N.:
Just open the gapps.zip with e.g. 7zip and pull the installer.sh file onto your desktop and leave 7zip open. Afterwards, open the installer.sh file you put on your desktop with notepad++.

Then change...

req_android_sdk="26" to req_android_sdk="27"

...and...

req_android_version="8.0" to req_android_version="8.1"

...and save the changes.

Now push the modified installer.sh file into the gapps.zip (you left open before via 7zip) again. Finally put the modified gapps onto the sdcard of your device and install rom and gapps as in the op described. Done!
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] knightazura:
Omg, thanks so much Adrian for your works ?

That's so fast seriously!

May i ask one question.

Is there Oreo Go built for Huashan? Or this build is fully Oreo Go (not the normal) and you just change the configuration of multitasking ??

I just curious to use Go edition to try and get better performance

2- sometime mobile network hanging to switch between 2g-3g-4g-no service(for solve this ,5 seconds airplane on and go back normal)

What are you listening to? I have the sound to the max listening to the opera and it sounds just fine...

I can actually upload a screen-cast if you want me to but it will be only one minute long because @AdrianDC seem to have capped the recording to one minute only which is a bit unfortunate because that's one of the apps i use the most.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] gorillanobka:
Bugs report

@AdrianDC

Hello Mr Adrian, please fin attached few bugs reports for the camera and for the recorder app.

Basically the camera is not able to record video and the recorder app is acting quite funny:

The recorder force closes several times during the initial phase of start up and during the recording…

There are times when it stops after only one minute of recording and there are times when it goes over two minutes of recording but afterwards it is impossible to stop it.

Sometimes the video that results can not be played by the gallery app .

I am running aosp-8.1.0-20171208-huashan-adriandc pure install untampared with ,not even rooted and no gapps.

The install is as pure as possible.

The only extra apps installed are the opencamera, whatsapp and Facebook messenger

Cheers
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AdrianDC:
Thanks !

As stated, Camcorder is a work in progress. I'm actually wasting quite a lot of time on it since August, and over the last days, most of my evenings and nights. I know what's wrong but I need to figure out why.

The issue with Lineage Recorder is known and the initial fix will be present on the next build.

Concerning Go: I need time to do more testing and deciding if it is worth using on Huashan or not, or if I'll make my own mix of Go and normal changes. You can check my Xperia Blue thread (Xperia T/TX/V) to compare as stated in the changelogs.

Rare issue of volume too high on notifications : I know, also a work in progress.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] gorillanobka:
To be honest I LOVE SUPER HIGH VOLUME ON NOTIFICATIONS.

Two days ago I returned back to my SP after my Xperia Z screen decided to die on me (only responds to the touch on a very small part on the left side).

All the Xperia Z builds i tried where notoriously lousy when it came about hearing notifications on the street. Even after increasing the volume from mixer_paths.xml.

Please DO NOT LOWER THE VOLUME OF NOTIFICATIONS.

I live in London and is so noisy on the street that I was actually missing notifications constantly with my Yuga.

Thank you for your effort and if you need more logs or stuff just let me know.

Cheers

I can't login at google since 8.1

Sometimes it ANRs at play services and it always leaves me forever waiting at some "checking info" loading screen before I can even login

[Xperia SP Original Android Development] gorillanobka:
Are you using the pre-installed Music app?

Ok, I will download the melody and give it a shot

EDIT:

I Tried both with the Music app and MiX explorer built in music player which uses VLC codecs as far as i remember and yeah played at the top volume you get distortions .But that's only normal when you think that SP has old speakers.

However, when you lower the volume slightly the sound is OK.

The same super loud volume that makes the music slightly distorted when played at maximum, MAKES IT POSSIBLE TO HEAR THOSE low volume NOTIFICATIONS sounds when you are out on the street.

There's no other way around as far as i am aware.

SP has never been known for the quality of it's speakers and it was pretty much ****e when it came to playing music if you were using ROMs designed for EU countries.

I remember my GF's SP bought from Japan being absolutely brilliant when it came about playing loud music...

Blame the EU regulations.

However, remember this IS A WORK IN PROGRESS AND IT'S PRETTY MUCH IN ALPHA STAGE so i would say, that there's definitely a lot of improvements coming soon.

Just be patient and in the mean time just lower the volume a little. To be honest even with the volume at 80% it sounds good and it's quite loud.

WAAAAY LOUDER AND CLEARER THAN A SONY XPERIA Z at full volume even with all those screaming and shrills.Those always been tricky on mobile speakers Trust me on it. Count your blessings.

You could have been stuck with an Xperia Z speakers like i did , for the last 3 something years :)
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AdrianDC:

hi guys and dear [MENTION=2233641]AdrianDC[/MENTION] (amazing developer in the world) :)

is there any way to radio transmitter work again on sp on android 6.0.1 and higher ?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AdrianDC:
No Qualcomm fully abandoned the FM Transmitter capabilities in the HAL interfaces,

and the ports I made back on Marshmallow 6.0 / CM-13.0 made it work but without audio routing, as it isn't supported anymore.

It clearly is not worth wasting a large amount of time just for 1 or 2 devices capable of supporting it.

Unlike some LEDs lights effects...
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] laim_name:
