ROM name: XUN/CARBON Xperia UI Nougat

Original author: machao44/M-ROM

Description:

It is an CARBON-CR-5.1-based ROM for Xperia Z1 with some Sony Official Sources.. Topic on xda (the author no longer uploads new versions on xda).

My build is purged of chinese programs. Also I made some translations and improvements.

Features:

- Many built-in Sony libraries. The ability to install many original applications from Sony.

- Service menu (*#*#7378423#*#*). Is not completely working.

- There is one more service-menu *#*#4636#*#*. Checked - works and really switches modes. Just do not press "Select radio station" -> "USA". Otherwise you will have to reflash the modem-part of ROM.

- Ability to kernel selection during installation: Basic/LOS. LOS kernel is: slightly more smooth interface due to the "Disable overlay fix", and slightly lower power consumption. Probably something else

Bugs/Issues:

Usual for all Nougat for z1c:

- Not working AndroidPay through NFC.

- Sony Camera face/smile recognition is invalid

- Can't create SIM-Contacts/Import contacts to SIM

Other:

- Sony theme function is not normal

- Standard screen-recording app sometimes causes stuck. Similar programs are OK.

- Changing time zone causes reboot

- Google account settings don't work

- Standard call recording don't work

- Looks like "OK Google" voice search does not work

- The two upper STAMINA modes do not receive notification from social networks apps, even when adding a app to an exception

- During saving changes in the white balance in the settings, it will force close, but the changes will saved until you reopen it

There were mentions about:

- Auto-switching to 4g, while "only 3g" (probably switching only visual, but not real)

- Wifi and mobile signal worse approx by 10% than on stock ROM.

- There are problems with FM radio. You can listen to either stereo at a fixed volume, or mono, but with a working controller. We need to fix the mixer_paths file.
