Does OTG work?

Does MHL work?

And I also noticed that the

How, when, and where to use this hotfix?

Hi zacharias,

Would it be possible to use ur custom kernels in lineageos of olivier or does it only work with RR?

thanks in advanced!

hi Michelle, little cheer :))

i tested myself in lineage14 by Quarx and its working.

Only issue left in making RR..the ultimate rom of awesomness for z3+/z4

respected [MENTION=3037651]zacharias.maladroit[/MENTION] sir

first of all i wud like to thank you and appreciate ur hard work and the time u have given in developing this wonderful and awesome rom.m really in love with this rom...esp its customization options and smoothness.and almost everything...its camera is also good(same as stock ,sir).

i have gone through all and every single post regarding this rom here....even greatly appreciate ur responsiveness towards "the heating issue ".the only concern/issue /hindrance left in making this rom "THE ULTIMATE ROM OF AWESOMNESS FOR Z3+/Z4".

I hv absolutely no knowledge/idea of developing/creating roms or kernel...so m a NOOB here.but still i wud like to say something here...sir "is it not possible that the culprit for heating issue might not b in d kernel but somwhere else ?"...........this can b tested by trying another/different krnel over this rom and see whether the issue continues or not?

m still using ur RR sir,but really missing my clash of clans game.....as playing it really brings the phone on fire.so eagerly waiting for ur ultimate fix for heating issue sir.

thnx alot and hatz off for ur great support/work .respect

Heating is a hardware issue and cannot be eliminated.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] davisml:
Do yourself a favor, read every thread in every forum on the Z4. We all have, if it's possible. Granted, easier if you started 2 years ago when the phone was new. Now the less, you will have a greatly enhanced knowledge of this phone's advantages (none) and shortfalls (many). If truly wise, you would do this before purchasing a 2 year old LEMON that is clearly documented as being so in several threads in each and every forum devoted to it on XDA. Gone are the days where we can trust a manufacturer (SONY) simply on the credibility of their name. Although much of the blame should still go to Qualcomm for the 810 chipset. Nevertheless, SONY, if at all interested in its customers maintaining any sense of brand loyalty (of which I now have absolutely none) should have shipped at no cost a brand new Z5 in exchange for this POS phone which SONY itself would just as soon forget that it ever released into the world. SONY almost shut down its mobile division after this fiasco. Just my opinion, not that it matters or was asked for. And yes, I'm a bit bitter that this was my first and probably last flagship phone to purchase new. Back to the METROPCS $30 phone of the month for me.

Hi, I'm in trouble.

I installed it normally (because I already have a certain experience). I even updated with the new core ...

My cell phone is ON and PLUG on the charger is not more than 40%.

If I disconnect and connect the charger, it works normally.

Actually it's not 40%, it's any percentage.

If I call 100% it drops to 99%, 100%, 99%, 100% or any numbering.

So, when I turn it off, the battery has consumed 60% (ie, the charging numbers are not real ... it is consuming and not charging.)
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] op3n:
that happen also on stock? if yes is or battery or hardware issue,damage,blabla. the drain on custom roms is more faster than stock but not how happen to u...
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] arpfreitas:
no, in stock version the battery lasts more than 1 day.

With this custom roms, it lasts half a day ...

Can you explain why custom rom consumes a lot of energy? so the useful life of the device or battery will be shorter.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] doctorsworld99:
It's relatively more hotter than lineage/M-Rom 1.6/Kryptonian rom...

Respected xda member.... I was referring to heating issue relatively found in stock/lineage/m rom/Kryptonian rom.RR is way hotter than any of the roms mentioned above..... Its just my opinion /observation based on after usage of all the above mentioned roms.

I know it's qualcomm 810...the main culprit.But still RR has something in it, which is making it relatively hotter than other roms.

M not complaining about it.... Just appreciating the hard work of the developer and writing my observations for the betterment of this rom.btw thnx everyone

[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] naz roy:
Search for twrp/fota kernels for z3 plus on xda. Download the two and flash them via Fastboot. (You'll see a guide for that) Make sure the bootloader is unlocked. Then reboot to enter recovery. If it doesn't, do the hootboot kernel (ivy_dsds_kernel) for E6533 dual way i showed you via flashtool..it will blink yellow, press volume up you'll be in twrp. Then..do the flashing...you can clear the (catche/dalvi, data, sytem) then flash your RR and the z3/z4 nova_core zip file provided here. I think that's all.

---------- Post added at 07:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:27 AM ----------

And get used to boot loops..you'll understand the system well. Am not an expert for sony, i just started from scratch not knowing a thing..LG was my thing back then. Anyway you'll catch up if you follow the threads for installing TWRP for z3+ dual. if you have the correct one working, flashing is an easy task.

Yes, you can update, that update includes the BlueBorne ROM-side changes + Kernel-side

previous SunKernel versions might not work with that ROM update in SELinux enforcing mode though - there got additional lines for Themes added

keep note though that microG doesn't work since it's missing several framework changes

I really enjoyed this ROM but I guess I'm reverting back, the battery drain was unbearable with this one. 2:30SOT with only Facebook messenger.

For those who tried it, is there any tweak to squeeze at least another hour?

I've tried flashing LXT, greenify, FSC, and various kernel edits but no hope.

Such a shame, it made me love my device hella more, didn't encounter a single bug.:crying:

Flash the original kernel NOVA CORE 5.8.5 posted by [MENTION=3037651]zacharias.maladroit[/MENTION] then reboot your device, go back to recovery and flash Facula kernel together with z3+ FSC + thermal engine. Reboot and let your phone cool. That's all...there'll be no more heat, battery drainage.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] BaraaModallal:
Okay, i did flash "Z4_Z3P-DSDS_SK_ENF_vN_RR_NovaCore_I.1_n_1_10_C_2_1_3_ivy_dual" on my 5.8.5 RR using fastboot, but the device won't boot up anymore, It keep on boot screen forever "Left it for 30 minutes".

Regardless to the bootloop, I shut it down and went to TWRP and flashed "Z4_Z3P-DSDS_SK_ENF_vN_RR_Facula_I.1_2_29_2_2_ivy_dual + Wipe cache" regardless to the fact that it said 5.8.4 on the Facula Kernel, but It's still not booting "Waited for 30 minutes as well".

--

How did you flash these custom kernels? I've let the original kernel + ROM boot up before flashing the custom one "NovaCore" as advised, doesn't seem to make a difference as nothing boots up except the original boot.img extracted from the RR.zip

Are you using RR 5.8.4? Maybe that's why it's working for you?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] naz roy:
You flashed wrong way. You didn't had to flash via fastboot. Okay launch twrp, clear the sytem, dalvi catche/ data...then flash fresh, (RR rom + Nova Core kernel, g-apps)... reboot into system, then set your device well, reboot back to recovery and flash Facula kernel and z3+ FSC+ thermal engine, clear the dalvi catche it'll take time too to reboot back to system. Once it's done let it cool first...then you're up. Am even using YOUTUBE smoothly no heat or drainage. Yeah am using RR 5.8.4 unofficial

Wow - what jackasses, that would have been one hell of an interesting (well, unique) device !

It probably doesn't have too much other features to distinguish itself from the competition or among Sony's other devices - nevertheless interesting :)

[MENTION=275473]BlackICE[/MENTION]

there's most probably 2 things:

the CDMA modem config which would need changes for the device build specifically

and the UHD display (panel drivers), so a specific kernel config (and build) would be needed for it

Then there's also the thing with the bootloader - is it open ?

Is it a developer device ?

What is the latest supported Sony (or Verizon) "stock" ROM version for the Z4v ?

I saw in youtube the drain of battery is crazy; in facebook, messenger is ok. Probably youtube use the gpu card and 4 that.

So, what u will do? :) stock rom? you cant set substratum themes :))
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Android Development] blackice000:
I believe the Bootloader is already unlocked, but I don't have the phone in my hands until tomorrow, so I can't confirm. I have just enough knowledge of cooking ROMs to be dangerous and that's mostly from ASUS transformer tablets (TF101/TF700) so I am not all that versed in Sony Phones. This will actually be my first.

Once I have the phone I will attempt to extract the ROM and figure out how to isolate the relevant portions (CDMA Radio and UHD Screen Drivers) it seems that as long as I append/replace those sections into any given Z3+ ROM (Which I believe had the same hardware otherwise) I should be able to use it.

Mostly I am just attempting to get to stability and debloat, extra features are fine, but not required.

Should be interesting.

Any assistance or advice would be graciously accepted.

Adaptive Brightness won't adjust accordingly

Adaptive Brightness is not adjusting according to the ambient light around me. Say I go outdoor the brightness goes to max (as intended) and when I come back inside, it stays the same and won't lower the brightness. Even tried covering up the sensors so I can darken it up and waited for a long time but no change in results. Lineage OS takes a little bit longer time to adjust but it works.

Loving the customization suite though and heat is also less compared to Lineage.

RR 5.8.5 has a couple of issues. Primary camera is not working on, when you open the camera it force closes after 3-5 seconds
