Charging error when power off screen is still light ... how to fix?

:(
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Swidilator:
So I've found 2 apps that are force closing when I open them, Google Spaces, and Absa Banking App

I've attached some logs, and I'm using magisk 14.0 and universal safetynet fix, though they were breaking before I applied the safetynet fix.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
My bus app is force closing on the latest developer builds we have. Not sure if new safety net feature or ROM issue atm

looks like it's the same issue and he said after trying this it worked, so it's worth trying, i just made a flashable zip, try and see if it will work or not!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Swidilator:
So I flashed it, all it did was make it as if I didn't have a sim card, and I got a mobile broadcast force close.

Looking at the logs I sent, Absa was crashing when it tried to use the fingerprint authentication (we don't have a fingerprint scanner, but the app worked on carbon ROM 5), and Spaces said the app wasn't signed properly or something like that...

Regarding Quick Charge 2.0 again. I have third-party QC 2.0 and charging using it on the stock rom has been very quick. Snapdragon 801 that's in Z3 supports QuickCharge, even though Sony haven't officially announced it or included QC-capable charger, the info has been on Qualcomm website. On the OmniROM the charging seems even slower than using regular charger. I haven't used Ampere back then, so I cant compare exact numbers, but a 1.5 hours of charge gave me almost full charge from 5%, it's been extremely helpful. Now in 1.5 hour I get only to around 30% and that's when the phone is idling.

Is it the problem with all the custom roms? I haven't used any other roms other than stock and now OmniROM, so I'm not sure.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] TheXorg:
I've got a "USB Safety Tester" (USB Voltage / Current Meter) and a QC2.0 charger from my Moto G4 Plus and I can confirm that QC is not supported by this ROM, the voltage stays at 5V. On stock QC works fine (via USB Port of course), voltage goes up to 9V.

Whats the SD Card Write/Read situation? Is it working properly? Also I want to try this rom now I am LOS 15 any suggestions for installation or usual wipes enough ?

FM Radio

[MENTION=6979267]nailyk[/MENTION] FM radio quality is just garbage, sounds like transmitted over GSM.. is it possible to improve it? I know FM won't be able to sound like lossless audio, but I know it can sound much better than this (it did on stock rom)...
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
On latest build all is working quite well.

Make a backup and try and if you aren't satisfied for some reason you should be fine to just restore.

I don't think you'll have any problems.

Just wipe /data and /system and caches and you're good to flash
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bakaekze:
No problems at all with sd card for me.

4g feels edgy. While working fine on other devices on the same carrier, on this one I sometimes experience disconnects or just bad coverage for some reason.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bakaekze:
Hey! I have a question about external sd card. I've formatted 32GB sd card in the ROM as internal storage ext4, but it doesn't allow me to store any photo/video on it, only move apps to it and my storage space is not increased. Is it the intended behavior?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] TheXorg:
It should automatically move data from "real" internal storage to the SD card as /sdcard points to the external SD card. You can confirm this (or do it manually) by using a root file manager, the "real" internal storage is accessible at /data/media/0
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bakaekze:
ES Explorer pro only sees 0 storage. When I try to give it root explorer rights it shows 'granted superuser rights' 2 times then gives an error 'sorry, test failed, this feature cannot run on your device'. So the data folder shows as empty, and only writeable storage for me is 0 which is the same as sdcard, and only has 1 gb free. I'm using magisk 14.5.

edit: i have installed root explorer app, it can see data folder, but sdcard still links to 0 folder and only has 11 gb total, 1 free.

added screenshot of how it looks in the system
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] nailyk:
you need to format as (v/ext)fat
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bakaekze:
But I want to use sdcard as internal storage, so that system would install apps on it. If I format it as vfat or exfat, I can only store media there. Is there a way to make an internal storage in fat? In omnirom if I select format a card as external storage, it formats it in vfat and I can't install apps on it. If I select internal, then it formats in ext4 and I can only install apps there, but no media.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] TheXorg:
You could try Solid Explorer. You should only see SD card and root folder in the hamburger menu.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] bakaekze:
If I format sd card as internal storage on omnirom, it doesn't show anywhere as sd card at all, only apps and system can use that storage. I'm not sure that this is an intended behavior. If I format it as external storage then I can see sd card, no issue there. But I would also like to be able to install apps there, not just use it for media. I have another (Chinese) phone with stock rom, it has an sd card formatted as internal storage (in ext4) and I can use it to store media on it as well as system and apps (Android 6).

add: tried using parted to format sdcard manually: vfat, f2fs and swap partitions. This way Only vfat is writable, while f2fs is unusable and I still can't install apps on it. Any workarounds? What else can I try?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] TheXorg:
I hope I'm not going too off-topic, but I'll try to explain that again. Until Android 5 there was a feature called "App2SD" (I'm not sure if this is the official name) where you had that "Move to SD card" button in your apps list if you had an SD card in your phone and your rom and the app supported it. You were able to read/write to that sd card normally as it wasn't needed to reformat it. That feature placed your apps encrypted in a folder on your sd card (i think it was .android_secure and it contained .asec files, those were the encrypted apps).

This was changed in Android 6 where it was replaced with a feature called "Adoptable Storage". As you've seen, you have to format your sd card to use this feature and you can't (easily) access your sd card on your computer. The reason for that is that the sd card is formatted as EXT4 or F2FS (depending on your rom) and it's encrypted using 128bit AES. Your sd card is then mounted at /mnt/expand/*****/ and it contains a folder structure similar to the /data partition (app, local, media, misc, user). On a normal setup without adoptable storage, your internal storage (for your primary user account, i guess) is located at /data/media/0 (/sdcard and /storage/emulated/0 are symlinks to that) (this is also the reason why TWRP does not format /data when doing a factory reset, but instead deletes all files and folders on it except for /data/media). If you run the "mount" command on a device with adoptable storage enabled you can see that "/mnt/expand/*****/media" is mounted ("symlinked") to "/storage/emulated", so that /storage/emulated/0 (aka "internal" storage) no longer points to "/data/media/0" (aka real internal storage) but to "/mnt/expand/******/media/0" (aka your sd card). Apps can still be installed on the internal storage (in /data/app) but those that support adoptable storage should automatically be installed on the sd card. The key used with the encryption remains on your device (on the data partition). It is possible to access your sd card on a linux computer by copying that key to your PC (you can find instructions how to do that here: https://nelenkov.blogspot.de/2015/06/decrypting-android-m-adopted-storage.html). The problems and confusion you mentioned is also the reason why most OEMs disable this feature. I've simplified some points so I hope you can understand it. It is a quite confusing topic with not that much information available (most xda posts are about "how to use adoptable storage although my phone/rom/oem does not support it/disabled it").

Finally, the advantage of Adoptable storage over App2SD is, as far as i can see, that /storage/emulated/0 will now also point to your sd card (e.g. WhatsApp media is then saved on your sd card) and it should be more secure. So there are no workarounds if you want to place apps on your sd card, the only app that could maybe work (read: I don't think so) is Link2SD.

In the OP it says this rom is compatible with all Z3 variants, am I safe to install it in the d6643 model, it's single chip and has TV, sold in Brazil.

Thanks.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] nailyk:
yes offline charging is broken. Should work with stock wall plug charger however.

I cannot remember about 6643 (am using sony specific names). What this variant is?

If your bootloader is unlockable, it shouldn't harm your device. It should boot and if not supported you just wont have sim card until fixed. However I cannot guarantee it will not brick it.

Please keep me informed by mentioning me into this thread. Good luck!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] mohsenbgh:
I'm using omni rom 8.1 on my d6633. When I restart my phone, it can't find network immediately and take up to several minutes to connet to the network. How can I fix this problem?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] RoyFAR:
So the battery life is very good as I expected, thanks for the info, Burdock :good:

Btw Daydream VR app can run with this firmware, right? It needs at least a nougat firmware as far as I know.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Henriquegtg:
Anyone tested this rom in a D6643 device? This variant is not mentioned in the thread.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dutch Burdock:
No idea about DayDream, using this device to drive my home automation; Tasker+AutoApps+IFTTT etc. as well as a media center/controller and home/VoIP phone. Stock couldn't handle all of this and borked many times. Am yet to crash this!

Cardboard works fine, at least with YT videos (only have a cheap cardboard viewer).

Am noticing I can't write files at all to my SD card mind, not sure what's with that. But other than that, it's rocking hard!

Those thread doesn't seems to be really actives for now but I have some announcement to do:

- I am in trouble with my dedicated servers so ALL services are down for now (ota/downloads/builds) and I have no idea when I will get them back. Really sorry for the inconvenience.

- My dev SSD died so am not able to work at home for now (the replacement one should be delivered soon)

- All my devices are dead so I bought a new one to fix the z3 & z3c to be able to support them back.

- Just got a new job which will take me a lot of time

So am not forgetting z3(c) but am really slowed down by my personal life.

Hope being able to give some new rom with the video fix included soon.

Thanks for your patience :o

[Xperia Z3 Android Development] shorski:
Hi everyone.

Sorry to derail from the topic a little bit.

I need help with my z3. I'm currently running Android N developer preview 4 on my device and I want to downgrade to official marshmallow.

Everytime I try to flash the 6.0.1 ftf file, it comes back with "unable to read phone". I'm using the latest flashtool 0.9.25.0

Is it only through Sony companion that one can downgrade from the developer preview?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Dobsgw:
Have you got the drivers installed?

You'll need to disable the driver signature verification to install them on windows 10 if not.

You can also try using EMMA tool from Sony to flash the device.

Hope this gives a nudge in the right direction for you
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] shorski:
Yeah. Drivers installed fine except Google inc and net. I'll try disabling the signature and also try Emma tool.

Hey,

when trying to update the Rom he wants to use the TWRP Recovery.

The problem is that I'm unable to flash the recovery.

Do you tried to turn off your phone completly and then hold the power and volume down buttons simultanesly?

When it's still don't work you must probably update your bootloader (some users says that it can be done with emma but i don't do it until now; so i don't have any experience with emma).
