This doesn't answer ^^

The bug tracker is almost empty and there is no information about how complete the XZ2 Compact support is.

edit : Oh sorry, now I see the date, maybe you were just giving some update and not replying to me… my bad.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
It's just my personal one to manage my android work for the TAMA plattform. :P

Not the official OmniROM bug tracker or the official Sony AOSP bug tracker. :P

But i can delegate the user reports, if they don't report into the right bug tracker (my own).

There is the SonyAOSP bug error tracked, too.

btw.

TAMA (including the xz2c) lacks a proper basic camera support which should come with OEMv8.

At the moment there is no RAW, no autofocus, no TOF and third party camera apps are very dark.

After OEMv8 the camera should get further updates.

In the end there will/should be a better quality than stock, because the drivers are (like the stock drivers) developed from scratch + we get RAW (and GCAM will work).
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Wooops I don't know why I didn't saw your message.

You're welcome :)

oh oh oh I would better wait for the next build with a massive amount of bug fixes. :)

And better wait for OEMv8 too (needs a new ROM build anyway) for hopefully proper camera support.

Please always flash and boot once the newest stock firmware.

There are many partitions which only get updated via stock with needed hardware informations stuff.

And I did exclude gapps and made them optional. :)
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Lp26:
Thanks for your reply :)

So you confirm camera is (going to be) working even if we unlock the bootloader (and root ?), in any case ? (I don't want to do any irremediable mistake here ^^)

Do you know when OEMv8 will be released ?

(by the way, what is it ?)

I asked because I'm still on android 8 and apparently some people could change their ROM with 8 but not 9.

That's just GREAT :)
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] firdyRAY:
Rooting on sony phones now are getting so complicated that i think i've given up on it entirely since it no longer comes with the additional performance boost with a working camera and all.

Back then all we had to do was get the right firmware, flash TWRP and flash our preferred ROM or built our own with a stock ROM.

Now it seems like they have all sorts of new things that hinder the joy of rooting entirely :(
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Yeah, but please flash the newest stock PIE first. :P

The anti noise algorithm at low light conditions may not work, but the other camera stuff works.

I personally use "opencamera" with tweaked settings and HDR mode.

OEM is the driver blob for the custom roms based on sony open devices project.

OEMv8 should contain further camera fixes for the TAMA devices.

It's usually released every last friday each month if there are no problems delaying it.

9 brings a newer bootloader aside from all of the other upgrades.

I can confirm that with PIE you can use other custom ROMs fine.

And I recommend to update and boot the stock firmware each month, even if you are on a custom ROM.

It upgrades many things in your device.

Yeah. :)
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Hmm?

Sony DRM exists since years.

And it gets better.

Since PIE you don't loose your camera preview.

And since the XZ2 OEO you don't get green pictures anymore.

I still can shoot photos like the Hellraiser.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] firdyRAY:
No DRM for Xperia Ray, X10 and older models.

It only started with XZ1 as far as i can recall and it just gets more complicated over time. This is the only Sony phone that i have not root since the beginning of time. Even Xiaomi is easier to root.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
As far as I know every phone became a DRMfix and there were security holes to backup your own DRMkeys.

Only since PIE there is no DRMfix and until now there is no way on TAMA to backup your TA Partition.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] mirhl:
That's so naive.

DRM was always there. From widevine to bravia/xreality/bionz engine.

The only thing that changed at the end of 2017 is that relocking by restoring TA is no longer possible.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
I can't relock a XZ1 with a TA backup?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] mirhl:
Uhm no, since Yoshino?

If any, I wouldn't know about Nile.

And I would suppose the other original old relock hack got patched too somewhere along the way.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Build issues seems to be fixed

I may close https://github.com/MartinX3sAndroidDevelopment/bug_tracker/issues/3

Will run a complete build friday or saturday. :)

If it works, I'll that I can upload SonyAOSP April with OEMv7 support until weekend.

It should introduce Android 10.0 Q GSI support, too.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bartys:
We don't need Sony aosp to boot Android q. I flashed q gsi from erfanoabdi and it was working fine. Maybe only these gsi from Google won't boot.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Do you own a XZ3?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bartys:
Nope xz2 h8216
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Then they modified the Q build to be compatible with treble r26

The google Q GSI needs a device with treble r28 like the stock firmware of the XZ3
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Yep, building is fixed.

I am able to upload the ROM today.

[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bartys:
is twrp included in new build?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
No, you need the aosp twrp

Btw

The official omnirom won't include twrp too.

I just included it because I build TWRP with it.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] old.splatterhand:
So, what are the steps to use a gsi?

Flash the whole aosp img's with fastboot, then gsi img with fastboot?

Or gsi img with twrp?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Both

At least the image should be written on the system partition
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Investigating a shutdown in the dual sim builds shortly after simcard pin entry

I reported it to the SODP team.

Maybe I need to rebuild dual sim and my build optimization is bad.

If single works without this issue I just need to rebuild the dual sim stuff.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bartys:
On single sim model its also rebooting after 2-3 minutes
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Thank you for testing!

With permissive too?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Could you try it with OEMv6 instead of v7 too? :)

Maybe the new vndk level didn't got merged.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Seems that OEMv8 brings better camera support.

I will release a new ROM with may security patch level.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
And I need someone who try my newest SonyAOSP ROM with OEMv6 , instead of OEMv7.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MDLB:
AOSP (2019-04-12_17-08-41_sony_aosp_xz2_DS.tar.gz) issues remained for the H8296-Dual with Customized TWRP (2019-04-06) on h8296_Customized IN_1314-9934_52.0.A.8.25_R4B as below

1. when ROOTING with TWRP: after flashing the AOSP ROM (with OEM v7) and fastoot-flashing twrp-xz2.img+dtbo-akari.img+vbmeta.img (by pressing the Volume+ and Power button without rebooting system), always stuck at the SONY or TWRP Logo;

2. when No-ROOTING: dual-SIM model automatically powers-off 2-3 min after booting system

3. There's not any Mod GCam v6 that can work on the AOSP

4. Open Camera can barely utilize Camera 2 API at Android L (5.0)

All I need is to unleash the HDR-processing potential of the IMX400 and to maneuver the GCam APP at will.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
1. Please don't use the STOCK firmware TWRP with the AOSP ROM.

Use the AOSP TWRP for the custom roms instead.

2. Could you try it with OEMv6 too?

3. & 4. OEMv8 should introduce the TAMA camera support.

It will get released until the end of the month and I assume I'll rebuild this ROM on 9.0.0-r36 (may security patch level)
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MDLB:
I did use the AOSP TWRP for custom ROM downloaded from your download-URL, rather than STOCK TWRP. As a result, bootloops stuck at TWRP/SONY Logo

I would like to flash OEMv6 for test purpose, but can I use the stock-twrp to backup the entire rooted and pattern-encypted stock-system, in order to recover in case of boot failure ? XZ2 is my only mobile-phone in use.

Titanium Backup cannot realize a full system-recovery
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
One guy said instead of the newest aosp twrp the exactly previous one worked.

In my case I use "migrate"

It creates a zip file which can be installed in TWRP

It contains your apps, appdata and app permissions.

Or titanium backup.

I have the same problem.

I have only the XZ2.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
OEMv8 will contain bugfixes and an updated camera.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MDLB:
Now that the OEMv8 has already released, have you tested the expected Camera shooting quality?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
It's a snapshot of the current camera development.

Means that there will come many updates in the following monthly OEM packages.

In the current state we have now raw, the camera doesn't crash anymore, can shoot photos and make videos.

Bugs:

The video has ghosting like you're on drugs.

The lowest ISO is 450.

The anti noise needs calibration but it may be the same but like the limited iso.

The pictures look a bit too sharp, like you would raise the sharpness level in Photoshop / Gimp.

The white point calibration needs an adjustment.

Colors are not 100% identical to the reality.

Okay, OLED users won't see a difference :silly:

Compared to OEMv7 it is a massive update and if you're not a professional photographer (why the heck would one don't use a DSLR?) you could use it as daily driver.

PS:

After work/job I will install aosp and omnirom at home on my xz2 and test it myself.

The reports are from the SODP team and I saw fresh made photos.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MDLB:
You mean that the AOSP camera with OEMv8 is just-fine for daily-use now, and can GCam v6 installed on the AOSP now ?

OEMv8 supports RAW format, making it possible to fully-realize HDR+, that's exiting !

Thanks for your hard-work along with the AOSP code development !

BTW: Microsoft ExchangeActive Service is extremely important for my outlook account sync (contacts + calendar), what should I do after flashing AOSP just to sync MS EAS ? Or which GAPPs version do I need ?

Bug report: 8.25 IN firmware+ AOSP 2019.04.12/04.06 + OEMv8 + Custom TWRP 2019.04.06 == Automatic shutdowns and bootloops at TWRP recovery function. I cannot root AOSP.

I'll recompile a new AOSP for OEMv8 + new TWRP (with fastboot boot support) + new omnirom for OEMv8 soon :)
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] nKii_Gamalerii:
I ll help u but i dont ve any pc now, can i root the XZ2 with an xiaomi box S??
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Do you mean a different custom ROM?

Or do you simply want to unlock the phone?

Then please update to April 2019 firmware first and use the pc to unlock it via fastboot.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Thank you, you're welcome :)

Microsoft stuff should work if it is an app you install. :)

Btw

[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Currently on my fresh compiled SonyAOSP with OEMv8

SELinux permissive is mandatory

And it is mandatory to flash and boot the stock april firmware first once, but that's described on the first page too at several places

The camera preview is glimmering, but stable.

Better use manual autofocus by touching on the preview to get good, clear, not blurry pictures.

But remember, it's just a current camera development snapshot.

Not the end result of finished development.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MDLB:
Following the first-page instructions, I exactly booted april firmware once, flashed the AOSP patch, flashed twrp and magisk without rebooting, but got bootloops finally.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dhacke:
Did you use oemv8? Mayby this rom isn't compatible with the newest oem yet?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MDLB:
Yes, I flashed the AOSP 2019.04.12 + OEMv8

I believe the custom-TWRP 2019.04.06 is incompatible with the compiled AOSP 2019.04.12, that's why root failed
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
today I release a new sony aosp with OEMv8 support and a new TWRP which is boot image independent and works with "fastboot boot twrp.img"

I run it since yesterday and it works.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Used it since saturday. Stable and nice and small.

Just AOSP.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] By Tũn:
bootloop at Sony Logo ???? ( Sony XZ2 Dual )
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Did you followed the instructions?

Did you used the newest fastboot version?

Did you used the stock April firmware before?

Did you made a full wipe?

Did you used the vbmeta parameters?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MDLB:
When should we fully wipe? After newflashing Official Firmware, or after flashing AOSP ?

Wipe Data + System + Dalvik ?

Everything went well except rooting AOSP,

Reboot STUCKED at SONY LOGO after flashing custom TWRP from the fastboot mode, I cannot even enter the TWRP UI
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
You can simply flash the userdata.img via fastboot to erase your userdata.

But you can also wipe internal storage + data + dalvik in twrp.

It need to be done if you switch the rom (stock -> custom or sonyaosp -> omnirom).

I also recommend it if you switch between android versions (8 -> 9 -> 10).

I use "Titanium Backup", "Migrate" and Google Cloud Backup to save my userdata and then restore it in the new rom.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MDLB:
Still, STUCKED at SONY Logo, as soon as rebooted after fastboot-flashing custom-TWRP
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
I released a new TWRP for AOSP.

Did you "fastboot boot twrp.img" it?

Or did you flash it?

And did you use the hardware buttons to open the blue fastboot more or did you restart into it via software?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MDLB:
Probably I can use AOSP 2019.04.22 without any issue, but only if H8296 would NOT get rooted.

Actulally, custome TWRP has never worked in my AOSP so far

It might be related to the specific firmware version ( I use INDIA 8.25) and the device model (mine is H8296 Dual )

---------- Post added at 12:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:10 PM ----------

I used the AOSP + custom TWRP both newly released on 2019.04.12

1. After flashing AOSP images , I did NOT reboot, and directly ran the fastboot instruction as below (fastboot mode), just to root into custom twrp for flashing magisk, but STUCKED at SONY Logo

fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

fastboot boot twrp-xz2.img

2. (1) After newflashing india firmware, I use adb reboot bootloader to enter fastboot-mode ;

(2) After flashing AOSP images, I use hardware button combinations (power+volume up) to open blue-LED fastboot mode.

Both Booting once and no-booting the AOSP once, stucked at SONY LOGO

Most importantly, STOCK TWRP always works
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Please don't use the hardware buttons to open the bootloader before "fastboot boot twrp.img".

And use the permissive.zip to use the aosp in selinux permissive mode.

I have a H8296 with European firmware.

But that shouldn't make a difference.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MDLB:
Bravo: successfully rooted the AOSP

Please allow me to recap the CORRECT STEPS:

1. Newflasher the Official Firmware

2. Boot system once !!!

3. fastboot mode: adb reboot bootloader (DO NOT use hardware buttons !!! )

fastboot set_active a (a or b, based on your condition)

fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash vendor vendor.img

fastboot flash oem SW_binaries_for_Xperia_Android_9.0_2.3.2_v8_tama.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot reboot

4. Boot system once AGAIN !!!

5. fastboot mode: adb reboot bootloader (DO NOT use hardware buttons !!! )

fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

fastboot boot twrp-xz2.img

-reboot into twrp recovery !!!

6. TWRP UI

Advanced menu -> "Install recovery ramdisk" -> Choose twrp-xz2.img and flash

-twrp UI reboot into twrp recovery !!!

flash Magiskv19.zip

-twrp UI reboot into twrp recovery !!!

flash permissive.zip (from Custom TWRP package) ->Important otherwise won't boot system!!!

-TWRP UI Boot System

7. Android 9.0: install the magisk-7.1.1.apk

Perfectly Rooted and Have Fun !
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Hello and thanks for the recap. I am happy that you've got now a working system :)

fastboot set_active a is not needed. And may result in a bootlooping if you newflasher a ROM on slot b and move after that to slot a (with a different stock rom and a different bootloader) to install a rom and use it.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MDLB:

Clicking noise in the hardware? We're investigating it.

I get it only in the aosp camera, another one only in "opencamera".

AOSP Camera can not get autofocused,

Focus shifting (Front Focus/Back Focus) again and again
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Try "opencamera" in "continuous focus" mode or a gcam.

Should work better.

Maybe gcams crashing on sonyaosp, bit not omnirom.

I'll investigate this in my free time.

[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MDLB:
GCam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.5.190418.1850.apk

MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V2e.apk

MGC_6.1.021_XCAMBase_F1_v5a

I tested and confirmed that none of above mod can launch normally on AOSP.

In my opinion, Open Camera is better than Snap Camera in terms of photo quality, and much more superior to official XZ2 stock-camera under low-light condition.

However, the development build is not updated frequently.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Yeah, you can adjust much in terms of quality in "opencamera".

Hmm, then I removed maybe too much from the SonyAOSP build to remove the GAPPS.

The keyboard swipe doesn't work, too.

Maybe that's my fault, too.

Gladly we'll get further aosp camera driver adjustments in the following months to fix the last bugs out of the camera. :)
