...wait. I have to do ALL of those? I thought I just had to do #3!

Shazbot. Lol brb

Edit: Got past the penguin thanks to [MENTION=8050427]ttkian[/MENTION]. I spent two hours trying to figure out what I did wrong. Jesus.

I'm upset.

Edit2: Any zip files to add functions to hardware buttons? I like holding the back button for "kill"

Also like to customize the date at the status bar

Also also, I like battery bar.

But those are just nitpicks. Overall, it's workin great!

Didn't work for me. About to reset again. Have you switched kernel?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] EBeatFLA:
The penguin is due to DrakenFX B12. There is a line of script to run to get rid of the Penguin. It's at the beginning of one of the LOS threads. I use DrakenFX B12 because NFounds B12 breaks being able to write to system.

If you want more features Havoc and Benzo currently have the most working features. Download the GSI from the official thread, extract the img file.

Same install, except instead of flashing a zip, flash the img to system.

Also, you will need to reboot to recovery once before flashing Gapps and Schwifty.

Thnx [MENTION=3756725]kountry83[/MENTION] for this great fix !

As said before, also feel free to join the development and discussion on Axon7 (s)GSI trebleSHOOTtoo and give your own input or just learn ;)

Of course XDA remains our safe haven to centralize what is being achieved :silly:
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] dwnoel:
hum sorry to get the bad guy role ... but I'm a bit sad that you encourage people to go to another place, like TG. Most of the people are happy to enjoy their hobby in a safe place like XDA / on a traditional forum. Just a reminder that TG (just like many other social media) puffs up your privacy; extract of permissions required by TG :

Identity

: find accounts on the device / add or remove accounts / read your own contact card

Contacts

: find accounts on the device / read & modify your contacts

SMS

: read your text messages (SMS or MMS) / receive text messages (SMS)

Mobile

: directly call phone numbers / read call log /read phone status and identity /	write call log / read & modify the contents of your USB storage
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] raystef66:
I get you on that. No problem. But as most of Pie roms have their own TG group I made one for US. It's like other discussions groups very direct and yes the same as here on xda. I'm on 5 discussion groups btw to follow the updates right away. And of course the discussion goes further on here on XDA as we do you know ;)

And as said above, we don't leave the save heaven that XDA provides us :)

Also just another thing to add, the result of the NFC fix of [MENTION=3756725]kountry83[/MENTION] that came to life on that group, was a result of a 'zillion' posts only about that issue. In all honesty, that wouldn't have been a very good idea to post all here, right ?

Has anyone tested jojoc magisk module (or LXT module) with this ROM? or more generally with the treble ROM?

Edit: I must have forgot to install the treble 1.1 zip. Probably shouldn't wipe system?

Anyway, with both of these roms so far I get "There is an internal problem with your device" every boot. Normal on Treble?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] EBeatFLA:
It takes a long time to boot the first time... Try giving it more time than you're used to.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] TPMJB:
Yeah I figured that out and was editing my post as you responded lol. Just wondering if the "internal problem with your device" message every boot was normal.

If you want to care about your new battery, you should avoid going below 10-15%

About your problem, be careful reading statistics on the first cycle(s) (OS feeding caches, more background work of the play store...)
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] TPMJB:
Eh, everyone has different theories about what causes battery wear. Show me research and I might care (I won't.)

The battery cost me $15. I'm still above 3000 mah. I got down to 2200 last time.

And first run of the OS I always get excellent battery life. Havoc I'm at 50% when I was already empty by this time yesterday.

Edit: current battery on Havoc with Schwifty kernel v4. Amazing battery
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] dwnoel:
Thanks for the feedback for Havoc + schwifty. I'll try :)

About battery good practice, here is more great topic from [MENTION=319057]Oki[/MENTION] :) https://xdaforums.com/axon-7/themes/guide-how-to-avoid-battery-degradation-t3789740
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] TPMJB:
Yeah, I've seen that. It's mildly different from what Accubattery says. I have a hard time trusting things like these without hard data to back it (data that has been repeated many times.) Either way, for the last two months I've been charging to full and I have within 5% the total mAh that my battery started with. I'm sure you can notice differences a year down the line, but swapping this battery out took all of 20 minutes. It just sucks because I remember the days when you just snapped off the back cover to do so.

Edit: Also I'd strongly contest the claim that QC isn't bad for the phone, since my phone becomes the surface of the sun while charging it and using GPS. On a normal charge, my phone doesn't heat up too much.

The NFC fix has still some issues on NOS. On Benzo, Havoc or LOS16.0 PPR2 build GSI the fix does it job well and cures the lag IF there is one.

Unfortunately on NOS not that stable. On the other hand Hotspot on NOS is working great out of the box as it isnt on Benzo, Havoc nor LOS16.0 PPR2...

If there is some need I can make a full update guide on, in our opinion, the best GSI's atm we've tested so far.

I'd say it crashes less often than my desktop but that's probably not the best standard.

I use my phone over 4hrs/day and can honestly say I exercise all the radios, the video functions etc. The only thing I don't do is play games. I do a soft reset every night after I backup and only hard reset my HTC phones when I'm using experimental software.

[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solarlogos:
Thank you very much for your reply, found the unSu.zip but as i said it´s rather a blackbox for me.

i took a look into TWRP and As far as i see - i need to get into the bootloader to use TWRP and afaik to get into the bootloader on my device i need ADB - but adb doesnt list my phone. How would I do so and would this "unroot" my phone while keeping all the data ?

Many thanks .:victory:
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trax7:
Is your bootloader unlocked?

Yes - flash TWRP from fastboot. You need Androxyde's Flashtool (only the drivers from it). Get phone into fastboot mode when connected to PC. Command for flashing is "fastboot flash recovery your_filename.img". You need a custom kernel to boot into that recovery (or use rootkernel at first). Then flash unSU.zip from TWRP.

No - unlock and do the things for "Yes".

Anyhow, your problem comes from the fact that you are trying to update ypur rooting method without updating the kernel. For this device root is gained through the custom kernel and every time there's an update - you need the update from TWRP.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solarlogos:
Yes I remeber i did the steps to unlock the bootloader 2 years ago (requesting the code from sony, accept loosing warranty and such) I also think i changed the Kernel too or the ROM came with another Kernel.

So it looks like Androxyde's Flashtools only available for windowser and those mac builds seem outdated - so I will try when i´m back home and let you know, but did i get you right that i wont loose my files then after flashing?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trax7:
If your bootloader is unlocked - you should keep them yes.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solarlogos:
So I´m on windows now and I downloaded androxydes flashtool Androxyde/Flashtool

https://github.com/Androxyde/Flashtool

and executed and installed the "drivers/DPInst64.exe"

after that i installed adb on windows like in this thread

https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/

after that i loaded TWRP from this thread https://xdaforums.com/z5-compact/development/twrp-twrp-3-2-1-z5-compact-t3748952

and downloaded the latest .img file in the google drive link

Then I pressed VOL + and plugged in the pc-cable, the led is blue.

then i executed the fasboot.exe inside the androxydes flashtools:

$ ~/Downloads/Flashtool-master/win32/fastboot flash recovery ~/Downloads/recovery_suzuran_230218.img

target didn't report max-download-size

sending 'recovery' (12008 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.421s]

writing 'recovery'...

OKAY [ 0.109s]

finished. total time: 0.530s

also tried the other fastboot.exe in the adb i loaded from the tutorial to install adb on widows linked above.

adb devices still doesnt list my phone.

nothing happens, the leed keeps blue and the screen black

if i start the phone afterwards the bootloop like in my initial posts keeps coming. Am I doing or installed sth. wrong?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trax7:
Adb does not work in fastboot mode. This is normal. The bootloop is from your kernel most likely. Flash a custom one.

I dont quite get it - I just "flashed" the TWRP .img and nothing happens, where do i know which kernel i should use and will they work without adb because adb still doesnt list my phone

so i downloaded this https://xdaforums.com/z5-compact/development/lineageos-14-1-bernis-alternative-builds-t3694904

there was a boot.img inside and i put phone in fastboot mode and entered

i finaly made it somehow got into twrp 2.8.7 with "Z5C_TWRP_152_v2_nilezon" there was a boot.img and a recovery.img i flashed" and save all my data with windows file-browser so thats very good.

but i wasnt able to install any roms always error executing binary i formatted everything and tried flashing different kernels (AndroPlus, Zombie) and different ROMs (lineage, MIUI, PACOS, STOCK) but they all didnt seem to work with this version of twrp.

i also wasnt able to find i working version of twrp. the last i flashed was named "TWRP_3.0.2-0_Z5C.img" but i couldnt boot to recovery

instead it booted into a new stocklike android system!

I dont have a clue whats going on but im glad my device is up and running again. i Can give more details:

Modelnr.

E5823

Android Version

5.1.1

Kernel-Version

3.10.49-perf-gb1eca38JACK

Build.Number

32.0.A.5.32

developer options activated

But i´m not able to load into twpr again!

if i

adb reboot recovery

it keeps reloading with yellow led (pressing vol up or down doesnt change anything)

i can only stop this with power + vol up and start normally into the stock android again

So what can i do from here? Which TWRP could work for my setup and which would be a working Kernel and ROM with root to install firewall and no bloatware.Because this stock rom already has 345 insztalled apps

But thank you so much for saving my day
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trax7:
That's okay!

Install the latest .34 Nougat release. Enable Unknown Sources and USB Debugging. Flash GreenKernel from fastboot temporarily, then flash latest TWRP from here. Then, boot into TWRP and flash latest GreenKernel and Magisk *from TWRP!*
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solarlogos:
So i´m already stuck at the first point: How to install the latest .34 Nougat release? You mean i should natively update? There is no software-update field in options / about phone and software update also tried with xperia companion says "no update possible", guess thats because i already flashed supersu?

For the The next points,

1. imagine i have latest nougat installed and enabled uknown sources and usb-debugging

2. I´m only able to load into twrp 2.8.7 using fastboot right now, so i do this.

3. (in fastboot) i install greenKernel dont reboot and install latest twrp

4. then reboot into recovery (the new TWRP) i install greenkernel again (the same version as before?) and Magisk (what you mean with *from TWRP*? )

EDIT: i flashed the unsu.zip mentioned earlier to unroot the phone again, but no luck - still no native method to upgrade to nougat
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trax7:
Use XperiFirm from Flashtool, it has all the firmwares for download.

Use only TWRP version above 3 after updating to Nougat.

I mean flash the GreenKernel zip file from recovery, dont flash it with fastboot the second time.

so i´m back on flashtool 0.9.25.0, i tried another version ( 32.4.A.1.54_R1E Customized DE) but all the same error with system.sin

with the 32.4.A.1.54_R1E i tried to exclude system.sin in flashtool and flash it manually with

fastboot flash system system.sin, on boot to system it stucks at the sony loading icon

i also tried rebuilding the ftf containing only the .sin files but i get the same error "Processing of system.sin finished with errors"

but i made it to flash 32.2.A.5.11_R8C ! there is an update from 32.2.A.5.11 to 32.3.A.0.376

it downloaded as a .pkg file "E5823_Vodafone DE_1299-0272_32.2.A.5.11_R8C_to_32.3.A.0.376_R4D.pkg"

Do you think i should try more .34 i have a feeling it wont work and i cant spend so much time on it further :/

How would i apply the update .pkg file mentioned above?

Can i install TWRP 3 + from there ? 32.3.A.0.376 seems to be nougat too
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trax7:
Yes, you can use that older Nougat too but it's going to be an older GreenKernel.

You can't force update with a pkg, isn't that the OTA update file..? What model number do you even have, your device is strange...

Ideas to solve your system.sin problems: Use a different computer, reinstall flashtool drivers (theres the common flashmode/fastboot mode drivers AND more importantly the Z5c drivers), use a different USB port and/or cable etc.

So, I was installing the framework and got to the point where I should install the apk, but there is no apk to download anywhere, am I dumb or it no longer exists?

I'm really confused. I've successfully flashed the framework through TWRP and all, but I'm stuck with this.

If someone could please let me know at least what version of the apk I'm supposed to download so I could find it in a mirror site, that would be great!
