Your installation of the ROM itself is successful? I mean, do you see that big 'C', then the progress bar running, and, finally result 0001? Are you using the opengapps file which is suitable to the Android version of the ROM you have installed?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] RUSPriest31:
yes, the rom itself installed successfully and work almost fine, for that stage. cr7.0 means android 9.0 isn't it?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] saedkebbeh:
Can you please integrate WiFi regional fix into the rom,

I have been using the rom for four days and so far everything is good, except for something with the music player, after each reboot, playlists get cleared

Thanks bro, you are really great
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] dhacke:
Yes
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Giuskiller:
Maybe he installed wrong opengapps package? Could be that used Arm64 instead of Arm
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Cygmon0:
I see the kernel is 3.10

And not 3.4 like Oreo build..

AFAIK, it had problems with camera blobs.

could that got fixed ?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] casouzaj:
This is the file I successfully flashed to my phone. Give it a try, if you wish.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Myself5:
That statement is false. The used Kernel is the 3.4 Oreo Kernel with the addition of two single commits...

[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Cygmon0:
Excuse me then. I might got misunderstood, since I saw 3.10 on the Pie thread.

Thanks
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] RUSPriest31:
The same result.

At once phone reboot when i switch from "no data transfer" to "file transfer". And phone didn't see 5ghz network

And one bonus - rapid charge works ))
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] casouzaj:
I don't get it! That file got installed flawlessly on my phone. It's a Z3C, but it's the same platform as the Z3. I used TWRP v.3.2 3-0. Would that be the cause of your issues?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] RUSPriest31:
May be i need to update twrp, but i didn't find any newer than 3.2.1-2
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] casouzaj:
I'll upload a zip file for you. You can install it through TWRP (it will be sent to the FOTAKernel partition) or extract recovery.img out of the zip and flash it through fastboot. Give me some time!

EDIT: here it is!
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] RUSPriest31:
Ok, it's works. The reason was obsolete twrp. Thank you so much
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] casouzaj:
Glad that you've managed to have your issues sorted out. I was already out of ideas!
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] alagga:
How fast is the rapid charge?

Is it as fast as on cr6 (~ 2-3hours) or like on stock (~ 1:20h)?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] RUSPriest31:
Less than 2 hours, but I have non standard battery. Standard + 2,3 Ah. And I don't now exactly how long it was

Is this rom with xperia ui ? If not, does someone have link to oreo rom with xperia ui for z3 ?

Would you like to take a screenshot and do the camera work?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] kusanagi666:
Not fm radio app (c.r.7) :(
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] dhacke:
No it's a AOSP Rom so no Sony UI.

Dear sir, anyone got issue with sim signal using latest carbon weekly update? I got this issue after update to latest weekly rom, signal very low/bad receive, after no service, my phone must be restarted to get signal back, the signal is back but no data after all, try airplane, try reset network setting, try reflashing, still the same, sometime data back but must waiting till 8-10 minute until got it stable, anyone with same issue? Phone seems ok before update to latest weekly rom, maybe next i'll try downgrade weekly rom, sorry for my bad English ;):)

Is the cr7 (pie) build already usable as daily driver?

Can anybody tell about bugs? :)

Is the Camera port (via Magisk) still working on Pie?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] dhacke:
The Camera itself is buggy. By me it stops after few photos.

But apart from the camera problems the PIE version is in my opinion stable as the official CR6.1 builds. No Crashes or big bugs. So i use it as daily driver.

But i don't know whether the Camera Port works because i use the camera app which comes with Carbon Rom.

PS: The CR 7.0 build doesn't support signature spoofing atm. So NanoDroid doesn't work. I just want to mention it (for the case when you don't want GApps on your phone).
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] ronnay ryukay:

[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Myself5:
Well then keep on waiting like everyone else does and stop begging me on every single platform you can find. Constant begging and asking won't speed things up, it will only result into me getting pissed off, and trust me you wouldn't want that.

Our server hoster is currently doing server maintenance. They move our server to a new, more powerful system, which is taking way longer than we expected it to take. Either way you can find a mirror on https://basketbuild.com/devs/CarbonROM. We're hoping the server to be back online as soon as possible.

How to get themes on carbonrom?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Myself5:
You can use the Substratum theme engine.

Btw, the Server is back up for now, but there might be some more downtime later this week

[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Riccorbypro:
Good afternoon all.

[MENTION=3816568]Myself5[/MENTION], great work on the ROM! I'd say this is as good as CR6.1 in everything, minus the camera and GPS issues that you already know about. One other thing that I haven't seen mentioned in the CR7 builds yet is internal microphone on phone calls. I remember this being an issue on some builds of CR6.1 as well, but could never track it down and fix it for sure. Bluetooth calling works though, so phone calls can easily be made through a bluetooth headset, but I just wanted to let you know about the mic issue as well. I'll do a proper test later on and grab a logcat for you to inspect, but in the meanwhile the ROM works great and it's nice to see there's still development on such an old device.

All the best to you

Riccorbypro
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] MCChang:
Hi, is there a post which has detailed instructions on how to install this ROM?

1. Rooting

2. Unlocking Bootlocker + preserving DRM keys

3. Installing this ROM?

Sorry but I couldn't find any step-by-step instructions and am not confident of installing it.

thanks.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] benjamindjedovic:
I need help. I have unlockable Z3 D6603, "Unlock bootloader allow=yes"

But I can't unlock it because there is no "OEM unlock" in devloper options.. Any solutions ?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] saedkebbeh:
Unlocking bootloader is done using flashtool

Install flashtool and press on bootloader unlock button

The rest you will get it yourself
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] benjamindjedovic:
Already tried, but it says "WARN - Maybe the OEM is not enabled". I know I need to enable OEM unlock in devloper options, but that toggle is missing..
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] saedkebbeh:
There is no such thing in sony phones
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] benjamindjedovic:
I belive I've found where the problem is, I have rooted phone with TWRP on locked bootloader, should I flash stock rom(clean without root or twrp) and try ?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] LluisAzm:
Hi!

I wanted to install this ROM in my Z3, but I have some problems... I have unlocked Bootloader and have flashed last TWRP, but it throws ERROR 7.

I was on Concept Firmware, I don't know if it is important...

What can I do?

Thanks!
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] thelegacy2010:
That shouldn't be a problem actually. Anyways just flash stock KitKat/Lollipop firmware. Then turn on USB Debugging from developer options and carry on unlocking the bootloader using flashtool.

Make sure you got all the drivers needed for your device.

Which TWRP version are you using?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] LluisAzm:
This one: TWRP 3.2.3-0 from here

Thanks!
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] thelegacy2010:
It should be TWRP issue. Use this earlier version of TWRP 3.2.1-2. I'm using the same one on Z3 Dual (D6633). :good:
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] LluisAzm:
Same problem with this version from here...

Is it possible to be needed flash the last stock version (no Concept Firmware)?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] casouzaj:
Some 18 hours ago, I downloaded file CARBON-CR-7.0-TBA-UNOFFICIAL-20190122-2243.zip from https://dl.myself5.de/Z3/CarbonROM/, and installed it my wife's Z3 phone. It seems to be working fine, including the GPS fix, which was broken in the previous Pie release. Nevertheless, then I noticed that the Z3C variant had not been uploaded. Moreover, later on, I noticed that the 20190122 file for the Z3 variant had been removed from the server. I wonder if it had some bugs that I hadn't noticed(?)
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] thelegacy2010:
Should have worked on that TWRP version cause it seems like a TWRP issue only.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Myself5:
Wait, the GPS works?! That build was not supposed to have any kind of GPS fix, lol. Can you try an app like GPS Status & Toolbox and not the fused location provider? The build doesn't have any device related changes but had some feature additions (Themes, to be specific). However, as they are broken (as far as SystemUI crashing) i deleted the build again. You can use it just fine, but stay away from CarbonFibers -> Styles, it's evil :D
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] casouzaj:
I may have been misled by the location icon in status bar. Nevertheless, as soon as I launched Maps, my location was practically immediately showed, with good precision. Will make further tests.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] SonnyKlinger:
Weirdly I'm getting this "Error 7.. This package is only for D6602, D6603, D6643, D6653" when I try to flash the latest version... Obviously I'm not using the wrong device, mine is a normal Z3 D6603, using a pre-rooted generic rom (D6603_23.5.A.1.291_Customized_EN_RecRoot found here), and using this TWRP (3.2.3-0, but it shows up as 3.0.2-3 on the recovery itself) which has been reported working on this thread... Any suggestions?

edit: Nevermind. I didn't know I had to flash stock before. Got it running now :)
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] ferrari990:
Camera is fine?

I can't work it
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] SonnyKlinger:
Wow I'm loving the ROM. So far it's completely stable. But the only issue I'm having is with WhatsApp; it is completely mute, doesn't play audio messages and is completely mute for calling (both speaker and mic)... Video playback works normally though. Anyone having anything similar?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Gargoyles:
I don't have those issues with WhatsApp. It works well here.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Maxine76:
Hi. This rom is amazing! Thank you for creating this rom.

I installed this rom two days ago and it looks stable so far. but today I noticed that I can't use or install any equalizer app. When I wanted to go to the equalizer section on Musicmatch app, it showed me this message:

https://cdn.pbrd.co/images/HY96THf.png

And then, I explored the entire Google play to find an equalizer app and most of them stopped working or didn't do anything. (I even installed a magisk mod that brings the entire Xperia xz2 sound system And followed every step that it said but it didn't work)

I would be appreciated if you could tell me how to enable this feature on this rom.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] SonnyKlinger:
I think both our issues are kinda related. I had flashed the stock Xperia music player + EQ, and then used the ClearAudio+ setting.. It was a bit buggy to set up, but it worked in the player normally after a couple tries... And I think that's what broke my Whatsapp audio - did a fresh install now, without the stock player + eq, and now it works normally. Maybe the rom has issues with audio EQ/FX in general, maybe someone can confirm this..
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Maxine76:
I've found an equalizer that works perfectly fine for me. It's a magisk module called Viper4Android FX. This equalizer has lots of features lile Bass booster, Viper clarity (Something like Xperia clear audio+) and etc (It's weird that this is the only equalizer that works for me). And also Whatsapp doesn't have any problem with playing audio beside this magisk module.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] benjamindjedovic:
What about buga ? Video recording works ? 120fps ?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] SonnyKlinger:
Cool I just installed it, very good program indeed! Thanks for the recommendation, and like you said, no problems with WhatsApp or any other program. Just got myself a new favourite hehe

I know you don't give any etas so i 'm just interested about the state of next cr 7.0 build. Any progress regarding camera and signature spoof support?

If these things still don't be good can you mayby make a new build with updated security updates? I would appreciate it.

I don't want to go back to CR 6.1 because Android 8.1 doesn't support DNS over TLS.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Myself5:
CARBON-CR-7.0-TBA-UNOFFICIAL-z3-20190129-1229 have a try and let me know if signature spoofing works ;)

Unfortunately Camera is still somewhat wonky, and GPS isn't working either though.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] saedkebbeh:
For GPS there is a module on magisk that makes something with GPS

For me it works good
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Myself5:

I have flashed 291 Stock ROM, it boots OK but now the bootloader screen is totally dark (image), PC detect it but screen is dark... Before flash I could see Bootloader information.

Also I have treid many ways to flash TWRP but nothing works... I am doing wrong steps but I don't know how is the correct way, could you help me please?

Thanks!
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] dhacke:

I can confirm the signature spoofing support works in the newest CR 7.0 build.

I just install MicroG via NanoDroid zip file. Installer goes through without problems and i could do the setup from MicroG over the MicroG settings without problems, too.

Great work:)

And thanks for the january 2019 patch level:)
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] thelegacy2010:
Bootloader screen is always dark. Anyways your phone enters fastboot mode successfully.

Try flashing this way while USB debugging is on.

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

Are you on Z3 or Z3 dual?

NOTE: You won't be able to flash TWRP without unlocking your bootloader in marshmallow. So switch to stock kitkat/lollipop.

Try flashing KitKat stock firmware first and then follow this below thread to root and flash a TWRP on your phone.

https://xdaforums.com/z3/general/guide-rootrecovery-how-to-root-install-t3017056

Hope this helps. :highfive:

Hi!

Thank you very much for your help.

When I was in Concept Firmware I could see informtaion in bootloader screen, then I flashed different stock firmwares and change bootloader, if it's normal this is OK!

I have treid to flash recovery using CMD but then it doesn't work. I unlocked bootloader before start, I flashed some TWRP but I get error when I tried ot install this ROM, I don't now if now, after flashing manu Stock ROMs, my bootloader is still unlocked.

My Z3 is only 1 SIM.

I try this tutorial, thanks!

Hi!

At the end I have achieved boot in TWRP flashing .575 firm and using this thred: https://xdaforums.com/z3/general/recovery-root-mm-575-291-lb-t3435214

When I have booted into TWRP I have tried to flash CR6.1 but it throws an error (image), I imagini that TWRP os too old. I have flashed CR5.1 and everything OK.

My problem now is that I cannot flash TWRP in bootloader, it seems to be ok but then when I reboot to recovery, it boots to system again.

Being in CR5.1 what can I do to flash an updated TWRP?

Thank you very much!!
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] dhacke:
You need to shutdown your phone. Then hold the power and vol - button at same time.

Then the phone should go into the recovery and not start the system.

Update the twrp: I had a old twrp too. So i took the twrp from nailyk and update over via fastboot.

Link to the thread from which i have my twrp:

Hi [MENTION=942713]LluisAzm[/MENTION],

As far i remember, after unlock bootloader you must flash ROM using sony's EMMA app, to enable recovery partition.

Then using flashtool flash to .291 rom.

And last flash twrp via cmd.

I'm not sure 100% i did it two years ago.

Good luck.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] thelegacy2010:
When your phone is powered off.

Hold Power Button + Volume Down untill you see the TWRP screen.

You can update your recovery through TWRP by selecting Image in Install.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] LluisAzm:
Hi!

This is the problem, I flash with fastboot with no errors but then TWRP don't boot anyway.

Yes... When I have read you I have remember to something called EMMA, I though it was the same that Flashtools. Also I have remembered sometihng about recovery partition, FotaKernel and something similar. It can be totally possible that there is the problem... I try to discover something in this way, thankyou!!
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] rsteelion:
OK, time to stop walking around. Use this twrp https://xdaforums.com/z3/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-3-0-leo-t3837167 read description and flash with fastboot. After, use this twrp to flash CR. That is it.

Yes!! I has worked, thank you very much!! It have booted into TWRP and I am booting last CR with Gapps. When the new battery arrives this Xperix Z3 will be like new.

i have a feature request to the upcoming CR 7.0.

Since a few weeks i have a new phone from sony (an xperia xz2) and since yesterday evening omnirom runs on this device.

To my positive surprise the rom allows it to deactivate the captive Portal detection.

For the case you don't know what i mean with this portal:

Android checks the connectivity every time when it connects via wlan or mobile network to the Internet and use google addresses for this.

We all know Google is "data junkie" and i try avoid them as much as possible. So that was my main reason to use custom roms.

So i want to ask whether you could add a setting to activate/deactivate this check as it is possible in Omnirom.

Thx in advance for a answer.

Will be coming soon. You should really allow some turn around time though. We only finished the February merges a few hours ago but used the rebase as a chance to fix some open bugs, so we're still working on that. Only after that's done I'll have time to make a build for the Z3.
