Yes, they do.

I wouldn't see any "poor camera performance". You might lose some of the wannabe optimizations the stock app offers you, but nothing else. The Pictures you described before were 4:3, because you have a 4:3 camera sensor... You just wouldn't notice on stock because it's not taking pictures with more than 8MP anyways, lol.

I do gotta say that not being able to choose the resolution is indeed a drawback I didn't notice so far. Nothing a third party camera app couldn't fix though.

Any sign of getting ok Google to work properly?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] monsieurlezard:
I didn't want to vex or so! Your job is great!

But I can't take pictures using the dedicated button, which is a bit frustrating for a device which includes it...and I don't know any third party cam to use with the dedicated button (but I din't really search !)

I'm also a Klwp user to have a 1 screen use ( I hate scrolling!), and found issues with the rom..

Don't wait for me unless you have time! it's 15:30 here, and i get activities like playing with children at the swimming pool and watching the WC Football!! :)
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Myself5:
Cam button works just fine here (just the focus step doesnt). Both works in OpenCamera. So does the resolution adjustment. Anway to each his own.

I'd like to ask you to keep the talk about other ROMs in the other ROMs thread though. It's completely unrelated to this thread.

Post modified!
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] oF2pks:
For me, on CarbonROM, OpenCamera only goes to 8Mp, attached SnapdragonCamera (fresh built LA.UM.6.6.r1-09000-89xx.0 with Los15Modpunk tree) goes to (3-8-)12Mp (4000x3000) only, and buggy panorama; any idea how to rise it up to 19Mp (5056x3792)?

Also weird is KlarGecko : always 15% faster on every rom than any regular webview/browser, but on CarbonROM 3.5*time slower (xperia kraken_1.1 3000ms versus carbon !11000ms, and "normal" 3612ms for CarbonBrowser) ?

Otherwise MicroG Magisk16.4 LosScreenRecorder ... all ok.

Unfortunately my Los15 build (modpunk tree) still crash, I believed my /vendor miss something...: will meld vendor from LilacLos15 & CarbonRom to check them; thanks again for your github unified device 8341/8342.

[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ZombieLinux:
Does anyone have a link for the .179 ftf firmware for the US region for the G8342?

The only link I could find is here: https://alfafile.net/file/5gGZ

The "free" download won't let me download because its >1G, and I'm disinclined to hand over 15USD for the "high speed".
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Manuel Lobos:
http://www.flashtool.net/downloads.php

Download and install the program normally, in the folder of your local disk (C) < User < "The user you are working on" <. FlashTool < XperiFirm.

In that program are all Xperia firmwares.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ZombieLinux:
[MENTION=8816564]Manuel Lobos[/MENTION]

That works if you only want the version of the firmware that is currently stored on the Sony servers. I'm looking more for an archive of older versions.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ZombieLinux:
So I've figured out a proper flashing procedure (at least for me).

Things needed:

G8342

USB-C cable

TWRP: twrp-3.2.1-0-poplar-8.img

GAPPS: MindTheGapps-8.1.0-arm64-20180610_024023.zip

CarbonRom: CARBON-CR-6.1-NOCT-WEEKLY-poplar-20180705-1240.zip

ADB and fastboot executables. The ones at https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip seem to be out of date somehow. But this link details how to install them properly.

The firmware below is trickier:

FIRMWARE: 47.1.A.12.179

Download and install Flashtool 0.9.25.0

Open FlashTool, allow it to sync, and have it download and install XperiFerm.

As of this afternoon (7/7/2018) the 47.1.A.12.179 firmware is only available in the Central Europe Market. Everyone else is on a later version. I've not noticed any adverse affects, but YMMV.

Procedure:

1. Connect phone to computer.

2. Shut down phone and put into fastboot mode. This can be done one of two ways:

A) Power off, then hold VOL-DOWN and Press the power button until you hear the vibration. There should be a blue indicatior LED on the top left of the screen.

B) Get into developer mode, enable ADB debugging and execute "adb reboot bootloader"

3. Click the XF Logo on the FlashTool application.

4. Download the required firmware.

5. Close out of the XperiFerm application

6. Click the lightning bolt on the left side of the FlashTool application.

7. Allow it to do its thing. Mine remained in bootloader mode after flashing, so it will need to be rebooted.

8. Go through the initial steps of the OS setup, should be fairly straightforward.

9. Enable bootloader unlocking

10. Enable developer mode and enable ADB debugging.

11. Execute "adb reboot bootloader"

I was unable to get TWRP to boot after flashing it multiple times so this is where we deviate from most flashing procedures.

12. Execute "fastboot boot /path/to/twrp-3.2.1-0-poplar-8.img"

13. In TWRP, do a full wipe of everything.

14. Load the Carbon Rom and MindTheGapps zips onto the phone using MTP (like a flash drive) or onto an uSD card (what I did).

15. Flash both CarbonRom and MindTheGapps together, but put CarbonRom first in the flashing order.

16. Clear all caches again.

17. Reboot. You should be greeted by CarbonRom.

[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] oF2pks:
...Geckowebview works fine on latest Fennec/F-droid (kraken1.1<3000ms) and my OpenCamera needed clear apk/storage (due to twrp modifs on /system)

On Xperia & sonyxperiadev, cam_button wake up device directly to camera without pin/password required (many miss within sonyxperiadev...). So 2x press takes photo straight from sleeping device.

Strangely SnapdragonCamera has cam_button launch ok (and shot also) but oc no xz1 wake-up; attached Magisk module includes libs and panorama is working fine, but 12Mp max only(?).

Also within twrp, conversely to CarbonROM, cam_button wake up devices (like volume buttons).

Thanks to you previous indications(patches for ta access), I have Los15.1 now booting and log is on par with CarbonRom, exception to ... Snapcam, which is not found by device (despite apk present but no icon):

EDIT due to 'external' outdir export OUT_DIR_COMMON_BASE (?!) Finally I noticed 'make bootimage' works conversely to the embedded boot.img via 'make & make otapackage'.

Very strange. There is plenty of reasons on why an app appears as unsupported, but none of them are fullfilled here (to my knowledge).

No. I made some progress but its still not working completely.

Didn't spent much time on it yet though as I was focusing on the issue where some apps would fail to connect to any kind of network (which is a lot higher in priority IMO).

problem with installation

Hello together,

i tried to install on many ways the ROM on my XZ1 but i got every time just boot-loops. Perhaps someone see my error or can explain the way a little bit precisely then the first post.

1. unlooked my bootloader via Sony (works)

2. used tool xperifix for root and TWRP installation

3. boot into Sony OEM ROM and checked if root works - works

4. then installed SonyAosp ROM from here

5. booted into that ROM -works

6. download the Carbon ROM and copy the ZIP to mSD Card

7. went into TWRP and flased that ZIP

8. ... then always bootloops @ Sony Logo

Where is my problem ?

And when should i install the JanJan DRM FIX Kernel ? After the CarbonROM installation ?

Thank you so much for help, i want this rom :)

[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] oF2pks:
Sorry for previous digression on Los; I switched to CarbonROM oreo repo and rom built & works straight fine: congrats; realy enjoy Quarks, Gallery(

!

), ScreenRecorderQStile and Fibers (Display charging info)...

(I also tried ok latest sony/vendor 270 and modpunk kernel.)

As a fan, I have few interrogations :

-

do you (CarbonROM team [MENTION=5051294]frap129[/MENTION] ...) agree for Quarks to be build as a standalone on F-droid (with proper links to carbonrom.org and license type ?...) https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=77104173&postcount=299 ?

-Exchange2 is still in your vendor/Carbon and works fine with latest CodeAurora

-webview is a bit old: 61

-microG 1&2 Add a whitelist for location providers outside of /system

-embedded Terminal is missing

-prebuilt Turbo.apk, when updated to 1.4, grants Firebase analytics (com.google.android.gms.measurement)

I know CarbonROM team is heavy working on Pie, but I noticed Equalizer was hard to reach, so I switched to aospextended/halogenOS musicFX : works with his own (blue) icon and a possible QS tile (~similar to omni one). Also tried los embedded Terminal which allows user to access bash like /bin/dexdump (or possible aapt & curl).

I wish you all the best for Pie deployment.

btw : do you have an official GSI Treble on the go ?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] tuna019:
root accsess

Hi everyone, i couldn't get the root access. when i flash twrp i can't reach the system and when i flash the boot.img i cant enter the twrp. and i dont know how can i root this phone
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Myself5:
Wouldn't have issues with getting Quarks published in F-Droid, but you might want to hold on a bit until the cr-7.0 branch goes public.

For Exchange2: So all you did was adding the CAF Exchange repo? I never got a chance to properly test that.

Webview is, as far as I know, still untouched AOSP. Should look into keeping that more updated in P.

As for microG: I purposely decided against that when I reviewed the microG patches as I consider the ability to allow user installed location providers potentially harmful.

As for the embedded terminal (equally qualifies for things like root): Our scope is to be a Stock replacement, with equal standards and expectations. You wouldn't expect a Terminal in your average stock ROM, thus you wouldn't expect it on Carbon either. Of cause we don't block anything of that sort, so if you want a Terminal (or e.g. root) you can just install that on your own.

Now, I don't really understand what you're trying to say with the Turbo thing. Mind going a bit more into detail there?

Depending on the amount of work necessary I'll take a look at the Equalizer and see if we can get that going for the September ASB builds.

Thanks for the kind words and suggestions, they are really appreciated. Also I think [MENTION=4802051]Somcom3X[/MENTION] is working on GSI builds for P, no idea about his progress though.

Are you confusing having a recovery with having root? Also you need to flash recovery to the "recovery" partition. Not sure why you're messing with boot there.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] oF2pks:
-Exchange2: yes I just added CAF repo

-Webview: I switched to los 67.0.3396.87

-Embedded Terminal is AOSP stock feature, 'planned' in CarbonROM/Manifest : not "rooted" and obfuscated in Settings/DeveloperOptions/Debugging, with safe access like only $ ls sdcard (impossible when installed as regular /data app without su).

-Turbo, in usa (only?), Playstore will link update to 1.4 which grants Firebase Analytics

This is also an example of embedded Terminal debugging : $ dexdump

sdcard/turbo14.apk | grep firebase ; Terminal (los' one is much better than aosp's) can also $ ls system/* but denied on data/*

imho, a BarcodeScanner should be added as prebuilt app: users always miss it when they need it.

Concerning prebuilt apps , I wonder how Oneplus third_app concept/behaviour could be implemented : really similar to https://translate.google.com/transl...2/article/details/52619684&edit-text=&act=url

I also believe CAF SnapdragonMusic could be a (rom)stock modern music player, but after 3/4 reboots it looses cached thumbnails.

Just in case, attached is my diff for aapt back in /system/bin ; I hope curl can be back the same way on unofficial builds.

I do understand your scope -> aosp stock replacement, primary goal: maybe one day F-Droid will grant a dedicated gsi/treble with prebuilts (f-droid fennec...), and CarbonROM will be then a right choice as a 'step-up milestone'.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Myself5:
I'll take a look at your suggestions, however I still don't understand what you're trying to say about Turbo... If Googles update needs those permissions there is is nothing we can do about it.

Hello,

Please, please forgive me if this has been answered, but I cannot find an answer through searching.

I know that the release version of CarbonROM is to be installed over stock ROM.

I know it obviously works with TWRP, as that's the install process.

My question is about the kernel. Can I use this ROM with JanJan's kernel? Or, is it safer/better to stick with the inbuilt kernel?

Forgive me, but I just don't know. I know about tweaking kernel from within android, i know JanJan kernel has many improvements. I just don't know enough about the kernel, and which is the best option. Or even the differences.

Also, what would be the install order?

Reset to Stock ROM > TWRP > CarbonROM > JanJan kernel

Seems to be right in my head.

[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] TriboDoP:
Hi

I wanted to keep the process as simple as possible.

Being on latest stock rom (sept.2018) i flashed in fastboot the latest twrp recovery.

Using twrp i flashed latest carbon rom (without gapps - but when using gapps it is recommended flashing rom and mindthegapps together in one go).

Wiped cache/dalvik and data.

Rebooted system.

Worked! (well and it is clear to have an unlocked bootloader)
