First of all: This ROM is ridiculously good :good: Great performance, great battery life and no more screen freezing or messed up colors (while I was using "Panel Native" color profile) when unlocking the phone. :D Noticed that it's called a more logical "Vivid" now. :)

And now the real (and most likely dumb af question): Do you know where the picture preview/shortcut to the picture gallery is when you are in the Sony camera app? Noticed that it is missing in this ROM. It has to be next to the capture/record button. (Bottom right in portrait mode, top right in landscape mode)

Also, the microphone recording volume is very low on audio/video recording, but I've seen that this problem was noticed by someone else a few replies earlier ;)

Anyway, keep up the good stuff sir! Thanks:highfive:
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
thanks. for the picture preview in camera, go into settings and change the "auto photo preview" from "only front camera" to "on". and yes, the sound volume when recording videos is an ongoing issue (since 15.1 already actually). will try to have a look soon.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] pattriccio:
Maybe what he meant was the shortcut preview in the camera app. Like this one you can find in the lower left of snap camera. Which should be in the lower right of the Sony camera.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] EYESCREAM 90:
Yes this is what i actually meant. Thanks for clearing that up for me:)
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
that's what i meant as well. when you change the setting I mentioned in the Sony camera, the taken picture will pop up in bottom right corner and tapping it will send you to the gallery. by default, this is only enabled for the front camera for whatever reason.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] EYESCREAM 90:
Yeah i know about that feature and i've turned it on as well. But it's actually not the real "permanent" preview/shortcut to the gallery like it supposed to be in the Sony camera app. Maybe it's removed in newer versions of the Sony camera app? I'm confused:silly::p The screenshot shows how it was like before i went to LineageOS 16 (RC3.1).

[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
ah OK. didn't know there was a permanent one (never really used stock). but it might be that this only works with the Sony gallery app then.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] EYESCREAM 90:
Yeah it might be something like that, thanks!:good:
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Kommissar47:
NFC stopped working.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
did it happen after you flashed a new build? try to reboot or flash again, it should come back. every now and then (maybe 1 out of 3 flashes) I also notice that it doesn't work. after a reboot or a new flash it's working again. currently (among other things) looking into what the reason might be.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
[MENTION=5928100]up2dateneurosis[/MENTION] I have sent you a pm with a link to a new test build, maybe you haven't seen it yet ;)

btw, I _think_ the random NFC issues might be fixed now. also, wfd is partially working but still needs a bit of love.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
i used to this rom on g8342 for three days it was working very well but after that vibration stopped in all apps and notifications, it's strange

edit; the same thing happened to me when using carbon rom besides losing contacts
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] haiha2001:
Any news about RC4 ?

Can we have Lineage OS 17.0 ?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] up2dateneurosis:
I am testing the lastest build today and and as soon as I can report that it runs stable, derf elot might release it. We hope that some things will be fixed at once.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
please don't forget to see if screen cast or mirroring was fixed, i think it's important
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] up2dateneurosis:
Screen mirroring worked on my TV
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
is your tv Samsung or what?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] pattriccio:
Works with Samsung TV.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
I'm waiting for the final release, thanks to all
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] up2dateneurosis:
Tested it with a Philips (got the whole HUE stuff ;) )
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
I'll release a new build this weekend. Since it will include quite a few under the hood changes (new kernel merge and reworked init), it would be good if you could test issues you may have had before again, maybe they are fixed now. I don't expect any new issues, as I haven't noticed any (and neither did [MENTION=5928100]up2dateneurosis[/MENTION] in his testing).

Besides that, there is improved WFD support and a fix for NFC randomly not working after a new flash.

edit: There should also be improved memory management now, with apps not closing as frequently in the background.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
I tried screen cast on two different Samsung TVs but didn't work, I hope this issue could be fixed, thanks a lot and keep up the good work
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Gabrius99:
Hi, thanks a lot. Are there any news on the microphone which records a weak sound?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
I am not sure. using the sound recorder it _seems_ fine to me. so please try and see. if its too low, let me know. and you can use the mod posted by up2dateneurosis a few pages back.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
yes I hope so as well. I was able to connect to my laptop using the windows 10 connect app, but my TV's (LG) wouldn't work. I figured out the issue and fixed it, so hopefully in your case too.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
I hope it's fixed in the next update, thanks alot
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
RC4 is uploaded. Please report any remaining issues.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] haiha2001:
Do you have any plan to release LineageOS 17 Android 10 ?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
sure, but 17 is in its very early days. it will likely still be a few months until it is ready for prime time with most features added. nightlies tend to come out around January/February the following year after a new android release iirc.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ku.3006:
does RC4 rom need a Gapps?

well this is my first time with this rom :)
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
as for screen cast it now connects on my samsung tv but after connected when i press back or home or recents it disconnects immediately. i think there is something missing. Thanks for your efforts.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
Hm, I will try to have a look at it this weekend. In the meantime, you could probably work around it by going to the app you want to cast and then then enable casting using the QS tile (but haven't tried this).
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
There is no specific requirement to flash gapps, unless you want google services and playstore of course. I recommend using opengapps pico.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
Tried this but no good it always disconnect
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ku.3006:
Tks bro ?

I flashed and this rom is so good on my phone
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Generic123.:
Hi, this ROM has been fantastic on my G8343, but my XZ1 has been having issues with its headphone jack. Whenever I play anything with sound(music, video, or notification), there appears to be a small amount of static coming from the headphone jack, which instantly stops when I stop the sound. It appears to not be a hardware issue, as none of this appears on stock(at least according to my ears). It gets really obvious when listening to piano music or something with periods of silence.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] arslancn:
Hi,

I installed this rom last night with gapps full. Its very smooth and fluid, basic functions works fine but I have some issues.

1) Vivid mode is working but in 20 mins after I activated this thing my screen colors goes crazy(colors changing weirdly,flickering in some areas, incall screen colors( in Google Phone latest stable version) distorted and showing colors like SMPTE TV color bars :D. Going back to DCI-P3 fixing this issue.

2)in incoming calls sometimes I cant hear the other person.

3) When I try to set call music or notification ring from Sounds(not media storage) I cant save any music.

4)Volte doesnt work( it was working on stock before) and when I turn on vo wifi, my mobile network goes down and in operator name on the notification bar, it shows ''No Service'' .
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
looks like i managed to fix this. I'll double check on a fresh build and let you know. keep in mind though, we are running unlocked BL's so I don't think hdcp provisioning is working. so content protected stuff likely won't work.

that's odd. I'll download the latest G8343 rom to compare, but I would be very surprised if anything on hardware/config side was different. have you tried different headphones to see if the issue is specific to this combination?

1) I'll see if I can reproduce this issue. if not, I might ask for some logs.

2) yes, that's an ongoing audio routing problem we are having (you can check the xz1 compact thread for other reports). will try to get around to it, but audio is a mess on our devices

3) i suppose you are referring to the "Sounds" app? I have noticed that too, and tbh I don't know where that app came from (gapps I guess?). I think it's missing a permission. I simply disabled that app to get back to the normal internal sound picker for now

4) did you flash the OEM.sin from your region? it's absolutely required to get ims to work.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
Right, looking good on my side. I will upload a test build for you. Are you using the single sim or dsds? I will send you a pm with a link for the test build.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Generic123.:
Sorry for the late reply; using any other headphones/earbuds yields the same result. From what I can find, the only differences between the G8343 and the other models, is that it has 5 less LTE bands than the G8341 and G8342.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
I'm using dsds , excuse me I saw the links from the email but now I can't find them
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
I sent you another pm
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
I tried and works fluently this time but when I install magisk it always disconnect, I need magisk to use some helpful modules, can u find a solution to this, thanks for your efforts.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] EYESCREAM 90:
Hey:) The screen cast still doesn't work for me. I have a Sony TV (55XE7096).

Also, the SD card seems to be tripping or something because most of the time i can't take pictures and save them. The card is accessible with the file manager though:confused: When i remove the card and put it back in it works for a little while and then after some unknown reason it stops working again.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
Thanks for testing. I can't promise that I can fix the issue with Magisk, as I am not using it myself and I rather invest my time/energy into fixing remaining device bugs, rather than sorting out those caused by other modifications. My guess would be that this is caused by the props which are modified by the MagiskHide Props Config module. Have you tried to disable this (if possible) and see if WFD functionality returns?

Are you using the Sony camera for taking pictures? For that one, I haven't run into issues saving to the external sdcard, but I also haven't tried it over a long period of time. The LOS camera is known to have issues saving to the external card, you need to use internal storage in that case.

As for WFD, are you running single sim or dsds? I can send you a pm with a link to a test version which will hopefully fix it. Unless you use Magisk I guess (see above).
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
You got a pm. As for the sdcard issue, i'll see if i can reproduce this.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
Tried this but no good, once u flash magisk wfd stops working, I'll try to look for apks or twrp zips instead of modules, i also noticed that when i download something to sd card it's done to the internal storage, thanks a lot for your efforts.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Gabrius99:
Hi,

I installed (dirty flash) and tested the latest version but the microphone issue still remains.

Also volte broke again, but I think it's caused by OEM.sin
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
Hi derf elot i sent u a pm concerning restoring sony sound stock features

---------- Post added at 10:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:55 AM ----------

I tried microphone but i can't find any problem, but im using [UNIVERSAL] Sony Xperia XZ2 Sound System [v1.4][sirdoha], i didn't test the microphone before flashing this
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] kaancaliskan:
I can confirm that microphone sensitivity is low. On stock, it was recording much better. I'm using ASR voice recorder for lessons and it shows the difference on recording. On stock, volume is much higher.

Edit: I asked some people on calls and they say no difference, quite same. I think the problem is just about to recording.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
I tried ASR the voice was really low but when using the vertical lines (adjust gain) and increase db to 15 or 20 the voice was loud and clear, that's it
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] kaancaliskan:
When you use audio gain, there's so much distortion, unusable.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] kaancaliskan:
Really sorry but I think I need to ask here.

Is there a gcam port working with this rom?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] arslancn:
Its STOCK based rom, it doesnt support full camera2api and raw so it does not support any gcam port.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] kaancaliskan:
Is there a possibility to support them?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
No, not possible using stock as a base AFAIK.

To anyone having audio issues (low recording volume for video/sound recorder, no working mic when using headphones, etc), I _think_ I might have finally managed to solve this. My limited testing so far seems good at least. I will prepare a test build later today. If you are willing to test, let me know and I'll send you a pm with a DL link. Thanks.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] kaancaliskan:
I can try in my free time.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
I'm ready to test
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
Thanks, I've sent you guys a PM with the links. Please let me know how it goes, and which issues are (hopefully) solved on your end.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Gabrius99:
I can test it
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
Thanks, also sent you a PM.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
1- Now sound is perfect and louder than before.

2- Earphones are working great.

3- I think microphone is louder, better than before but I'm not an expert in recording to judge it. I used ASR I think it is much better than before.

4- Network is better than previous builds.

Unfortunately, i have two 4k videos that were running smoothly in the previous build, but now they are running only in sound , I'm using mx player pro.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] kaancaliskan:
Can someone confirm that Titanium Backup working with magisk? Titanium Backup says can't get root permission. I have root permission and apps that working with root.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
I used titanium backup after clean install the last build to restore my apps successfully using the root method of lineage in the op, addonsu-16.0-arm64-signed.zip
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
thanks for testing, sounds good overall. the video problem sounds like a codec issue. i could replicate this just now when doing a 4k recording using the Sony camera and playing back with internal player. vlc works fine (since it ships its own codecs I believe). 4k recordings using Los camera work fine though. are you also referring to recorded videos?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] up2dateneurosis:
[MENTION=4063475]derf elot[/MENTION] did you modified the mixer_paths_tasha.xml file to change the record volumes?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
no, i switched to the stock prebuilt hal including all the stock config files. let me know if you want to test this as well
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
At least Thanks is our duty, our great developer, All thanks for you for sure, 4k recording is played well via vlc not internal player or mx player, but when downloading 4k videos from YouTube or snaptube, it's not playable at all even via vlc , but in the previous build dated 23/9/2019 it was running smoothly via mx player.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
I have an idea what the issue might be, going to test this now.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] up2dateneurosis:
Modifying the mixer_paths_tasha.xml helped some months ago and since them I use my file. Also uploaded it for others. Slightly changed the values over the time to find the best settings. But I was not able to completely solve the issue. Sounds like you did :) But perhabs the perfect solution will be a combination. Is a new build with your fix already out, or can you send me a pm as usually? I would test than too and play around with the mixer_paths_tasha.xml again. It could behave different now.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
I think i found the issue. I sent you a pm with instruction on how to fix it. please try it and let me know :)
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
When I enter fastboot and then i write adb root , i get an error, can u please send me the commands in detail, thanks
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
I sent you a PM.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
Now it works flawlessly thanks
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
Great, thanks for testing.

In that case we should be good to include these changes with the next release.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
Of course man, thanks a lot
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
I hope I'm not annoying, but the music widget doesn't respond from the first tap unless u tap it many times, thanks
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
you mean, it doesn't respond well the first time you use it, e.g. to start the music? my wild guess here would be that the app is being suspended. have you tried disabling battery optimizations for it?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
It's really the battery optimization that hinder its start, thank you so much
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
When i connect the phone to pc and choose file transfer from usb options for example , it takes a long time to do the choice unlike stock firmwsre, is this normal or something else?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
Don't think I noticed anything out of the ordinary last time I used it. But I'll have a look.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
Can't we have dt2w on xz1 ? Sorry for asking too much
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
no, we had it for a week or two, but had to remove it again because our digitizer doesn't play well with.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Generic123.:
This quote from Myself5 might explain what's going on:
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
yes, our issues were similar. see my post here:

https://github.com/cryptomilk/android_kernel_sony_msm8998/pull/78
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Generic123.:
Good to know. By the way, would it be possible for you to PM me the link to the newest build? I would like to see if those audio improvements fix my headphone jack issues.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
Done. you were using the Canadian variant, right? let me know how it goes.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
Isn't there any way to enable vibration in power saving mode like stock? i need it in call connect
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] zagi988:
Can someone report some screen on times with this ROM and how it compares with stock?

I'm currently looking for a ROM that is as clean as possible but with SOT similar to stock or better.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] kaancaliskan:
Similer to stock, on stock 4h and with this rom it's 5. Everything same (brightness etc.)
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Generic123.:
After using it for about a day, here are my initial impressions:

1. Headphone jack issues have now disappeared.

2. Data connection is more stable(at least for me), before it cut out a few times a day.)

Overall, a huge improvement for me.

By the way, is it possible to make the fingerprint scanner always active? Or is that something that has been tried already?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
Great, good to hear. Could you clarify what you mean by "always active"?

I will most likely release RC5 this Sunday, once October ASB has been merged into LOS. Also, 47.2.A.11.228 stock has been released, so it will be based on it.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Generic123.:
"Always Active" just means what it says; the fingerprint scanner is always on(or active), regardless of whether or not the phone is locked.

This allows the someone to just touch the scanner without actually pushing the button. I want it just to slow the wear of the power button, for long term use.

You don't have to implement it, but it would be cool.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] derf elot:
Right, but powering on the phone/display is a bit more than just having the fpc active at all times. It is possible this could be implemented, but would likely require some kernel changes for wakeup_gestures. I can have a look when I have the time.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Generic123.:
Yeah, I was speaking from a more consumer perspective. I honestly don't have much of an idea on how it would work internally, or how much time it would take to implement something like that. I appreciate you considering it though.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hsheemi:
Excellent man ? u r so fast , but again Isn't there any way to enable vibration in power saving mode like stock? i need vibration in call connect and some notifications without having to disable power saving
