As i already said:

The first post says:

If this is not noob-friendly in your opinion i can't help you. I think you misunderstood the migration.zip, you just need it when you come from the unofficial ROM and want to install the official ROM without following the instructions. New people will visit the thread and follow the instructions which are as user friendly as possible and it will work for them. The migration.zip is just an "unofficial" tool to be able to keep your data when switching from the unofficial build to the official. And now it gets clear that only people who already use the unofficial LineageOS would need thif if they can't follow the recommended way, including wipe of data. These people should be able to read the post in the thread of the rom they are using until now.

About micro-g: It would need a different migration.zip if you want to flash it coming from unofficial without wipe data.

Are you sure that you are using the build from gdrive? :D The upper speaker is DEFINITELY not activated while the handset mode is activated.

Honestly? What is that bay :D I have been watching out for a second Z3 Compact or Z3 since it would be useful for comparisons and taking logs but didn't really find a good deal below 100€

neither gedit, nano or atom can open your log correct for me :D

OFFICIAL???? REALLY????? Soooo nice!!!

Thanks, so much thanks to you ( [MENTION=8746471]NeoArian[/MENTION] ) and all the involved developers and supporters. Excuse the question, but is it possible to support the Z2 ( Sirius ) too?

Greetz, and much respect

[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] NeoArian:
You are welcome :svetius:

Since I don't have a Z2 I can't maintain it, if any developer with Z2 is interested he can contact me.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] tomKater:
Hi everybody,

Is it better to use LineageOS’ AddonSU instead of Magisk for compatibility reasons ?

What are the differences between the two ?

Thank you for your feedback.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] 0LDST4R:
Oh, that's sad, i had 2 Z2, donated 1 device to [MENTION=5258151]drakonizer[/MENTION], he provided the CarbonROM Pie, it's really stable, my daily driver since months, but he's really quiet in the last time. Let's see, maybe i can get another Z2 for donation again - if you have the time to maintain it. I'd pm you if there are any news.

Greetz,

0LDST4R
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] NeoArian:
Magisk is fully compatible with this ROM. Magisk has some enhancements like the root hiding and modules. The AddonSu is just a really simple way to root your phone without unnecessary stuff by default.

If you could arrange this I would definitely be interested. I would love to bring LineageOS to it officially. Since the Xperia Z2 is also shinano it wouldn't be too hard to get it official, just some small modifications. Feel free to PM me anytime.

Greetings

Hi

nop this one just stucks on sony logo with blue light

can get into TWRP with power + vol down and then it finishes update
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] NeoArian:
Let me repeat my answer to you.

Could please tell me in which part i talk about migration to you?

I understood your question, but already told a few posts ago that i will hold the changes (what you call "some fixes here and there") at the gerrit until i can test it myself.

That means that i will not merge the changes until i tested it. If the changes are not merged they are not available in the next build either.

I hope you can follow me now.

Right, there is a problem with this build. You can boot it from powered off device but rebooting into TWRP doesn't work. I will look into that soon.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] 0LDST4R:
That sounds good, as i wrote earlier i allways sent a Sirius to Drakonizer, the Z2 is a very good device, has enough performance ( for my personal needs ), and to see an official LOS would be great. I'll see what i can do, maybe a co-work with [MENTION=6812097]raschad[/MENTION] is possible, he provided a few good Pie builds for our Sirius.

I pm you if i'm successfull.

Greetings,

0LDST4R

On weekend i must try this OFFICIAL LOS on my sweet little Z3C... :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] NeoArian:
I just replaced my speaker today. I have tested the changes myself now and from what i can say calling is at least as good as on stock now. I have submitted the changes. Here are the changes: https://download.lineageos.org/z3c/changes/ They will be included in the next nightly.

Great to hear :good:

Hi!

One noob question: can I flash back my backup from carbon rom 8.1 with the twrp from the first page (3.3.1) if I have problems with lineageOS 16.0 ? Or must I reflash the older twrp with adb first?

Thanks!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] fablerbjörn:
Main camera doesn't work on my phone...

LineageOS camera app shows nothing instead of camera feed. I've tried changing resoultions and it didn't fix anything. Front camera works fine though. And I didn't try to take pictures.

At least the app doesn't crash like it was on later unofficial builds. I've tried OpenCamera and there's no camera feed in here as well. Installing Magisk module for stock camera app causes bootloop.

What do I have to provide for debug? I flashed the 2019-11-13 build using recovery in post #1 from SD card and installed MindTheGApps and Magisk 20.1 immediately after.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] pawloland:
I don't know for sure what you meant but the fastboot mode was and is only accessible when plugging phone to PC with vol+ key pressed. Vol+ + PWR button didn't and don't do anything as far as I know, when phone is Being turned on. This key combination is used to force reboot the phone. To boot twrp you use "fastboot boot recovery.img" and to flash twrp you use "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] casouzaj:
Keeping both the power and volume up buttons held down, until three consecutive vibrations, will turn the phone off.

Power and volume down buttons together, on the other hand, will bring TWRP up.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] odiad:
Hi NeoArian:. Do you mean in next nightlies the too loud calling issue will be removed? I just installed nighly from 14.11. but it is still very loud in lowest volume (Clean installed with opengapps and Magisk20)

[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Natsu2000:
I just flashed the rom by now and facing the first problem cause of my broken back buttons (touch screen at the bottom).

At the setup in the beginning on LineageOS Functions I can't tap on "Next" because it's at the bottom. Is there a way to skip that part. Otherwise I can't continue, cause now I'm stuck at the screen.

Even the Installation of a back button app from PC over Network doesn't work. The download won't start at the setup, as it seems.

Hope someone can help me.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] casouzaj:
Consider the use of an OTG cable (USB female - microUSB male) and connect a USB mouse to move forward.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Natsu2000:
Thanks for the reply.

Unfortunately, since I've bought the z3c, OTG doesn't work for me and I don't know why.

I consider, if there's no other way to go back to stock or if that works, restore the Backup of the unofficial LOS with TWRP.

If I restore, do I have to wipe again or can I do this like a dirty flash?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] casouzaj:
You, most probably, still have TWRP, right? Just launch it and restore your previous backup.

No need to wipe any partitions.

By the way, I dirty-flaahed from the unofficial to the official LOS ROM without any wipes. The stable Magisk v20.0 got automatically installed.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Natsu2000:
Thank you for your help :)

I'm restoring right now. Maybe in a future update of the official rom it's possible to bypass this part of setup or the "Next"-button is a bit higher :)

Oh, maybe I'll try it with dirty flashing like you did. So I don't have to go through the setup, right? :)

Does this cause any problems for you or is the rom working fine dirty-flashed?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] casouzaj:
I had edited my post while you were typing. Have you read that I dirty-flaahed the official LOS over the unofficial one? This way you wouldn't have to pass through the initial setup.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Natsu2000:
Yes, saw it. Had edited my post after that :)

Did it cause any problems for you or does the rom work fine?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] casouzaj:
Well, my Z3C phone is not my daily driver anymore. I performed some tests, including a couple of calls (phone and Whatsapp). All that I did worked.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Natsu2000:
OK, thanks a lot for your help :)

Dirty-flashed it. Seems, everything works so far.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] sabotage154:
quick question. is there any difference in functionality between this offical LOS 16 and the unofficial LOS 16?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] NeoArian:
No, there is no difference in functionality. It is compiled from the same sources just nightly and on the lineage servers.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] pawloland:
I have a build from 16.11 and as I've said before with testbuild, the loudspeaker mode isn't anywhere near loud. Loudspeaker mode is at maximum as loud as normal mode. Normal mode works perfectly now. Only problem is super quiet loudspeaker mode.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] NeoArian:
Can you somehow confirm that it is not related to your hardware? It is definitely similar to stock now on my device. And this is definitely way louder then the handset mode.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] pawloland:
I can watch yt and it is loud, but loudspeaker mode isn't.

Edit: And it was way louder with unofficial builds, so I assume it isn't hardware problem.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] odiad:
Hi. I tried nighly-Rom from 14.11. and now 17.11. Anytime calling volume was much too loud in call. In lowest volume setting it was too loud to keep phone next to the ear. And people next to me could listen to my call, too.

So it is still not okay.

Greetings Odiad
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] NeoArian:
Can you imagine my situation?

One user says it's really silent another says its way too loud and on my device it is similar to stock.

I would need some more information for example a log. I don't think I can do anything though even with a log. Best thing would be a way to reproduce from clean installation.

Anyway I would probably say that the problem is on your end and you should just wipe and flash again but I could not guarantee anything.

BTW as already mentioned I could make the phone use both speakers in speaker mode again like it was on unofficial builds but since that's not the case on stock I would rather not do it. If really needed I could create a flashable zip or magisk module.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Bore1:
For me in call vol is perfect at the moment, used to be way too loud ,but OK now
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] mindyabiznis:
Can anyone tell me if there is any advantages to running this instead of LOS v17?

I'm running v17 at the minute I came from carbon 8.1 and wonder why I waited so long to try LOS out lol, I love it but I'm noticing there is a fair few magisk modules that aren't yet compatible with android 10.

Is that the only difference I'm going to see? Performance and battery life is waaay better than I expected on this fairly old device running v17 and I wouldn't want to lose that if I go down to v16 but I'm missing the use of some magisk modules.

Any and all advice is welcomed and thanks in advance.

Guys, tell me!

Made a clean install after .291

Unlocked the bootloader, updated the latest version of the recovery from the subj.

And when I talk on the phone, the interlocutor hears his voice, like an echo. I don’t hear this echo, and the interlocutor hears his voice after about 1 second ...

How to turn off this echo? On firmware based on .291 this echo is not.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] pawloland:
As you may remember I had some problems with TWRP like: I couldn't make a backup, storage couldn't be mounted and ROM couldn't be flashed. Today I decided to go back to stock. I flashed stock android 6 using flashtool from sony aka Emma, because device was in bootloop after flashing stock with flashtool64. While being with stock on my z3c I tested loudspeaker mode - It was indeed loud, so I am sure my problems couldn't be caused by hardware issue. Then I wiped everything and flashed nightly from 17.11.2019 using twrp from 07.11.2019 (which previously wasn't working for me) to once again test loudspeaker mode. The flashing was successful on the first try so flashing stock using Emma seems to fix those twrp problems. I did clean flash, just rom, without gapps and magisk. Sadly the problem with quiet loudspeaker mode persists. Is there any chance you applied those fixes for your test build, but somehow they weren't fully brought to officiall release by accident? It's the only thing that comes to my mind.:confused:
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] NeoArian:
No, definitely no chance for this. It works on the official build for me.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] pawloland:
At this point I don't have any idea what I could have done wrong. You said, you could make a magisk module to activate both speakers during loudspeaker mode to make it even louder. Is the offer still valid:D ? If yes, in this situation I would gladly ask you to do so. Also, could anybody else also check how loudspeaker mode works and leave feedback here? I would like to know if somebody else has the same issue, or it is just me having tin ear.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] NeoArian:
I don't really think that you did something wrong, is a weird issue somehow ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ because you are not the only one I think.

I can make the module when I find some time.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] pawloland:
Good to know that you are aware that something is wrong. I did more testing until now. Maybe it will help :

In the first minute of call on the side of the the listener (it is how I will be describing the end without z3c) the audio is at first quiet, then it is super high , then super quiet etc. etc. One period (time in which audio is loud/quiet) last about 5/10 seconds and at the time when audio is changing from super loud to super quiet (also in the reversed order), our old friend - crackling noise can be heard :p. After a minute or two, everything calms down on the listener side and the z3c can be heard clearly. Maybe it will bring some sort of the breakthrough in the debugging.

I can't admit that audio in loudspeaker mode is much louder than in normal mode. If somebody would make me blindly guess which one is which, I wouldn't have any clue.

Thank in advanced for magisk module. I hope it will only be only temporary solution:o
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] 115ek:
I can confirm the problems. Speaker mode isn't really louder than handset, (annoying) echo exists on the opposite side and there's a lot of crackling in the audio.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] mxperial:
I can give you a hand on this if you want to, just send me a pm on what I need to do (with audio/lib/system files)

LineAgeOS v16 zip not compatible to twrp v3.3.1-0 (20191110 build)?

When trying to install this

As I wrote in one of the recent posts: flash stock using Emma, boot to android 6, power off the device, flash TWRP from the first post (build from 07.10.2019) and then clean falsh latest nightly. It should fix twrp problems.

Hello community. Short feedback about rom from 16th:

I installed clean with opengapps and magisk 20. Generally it worked fine, but:

- sound while calling is a bit noisy (but not too loud like in LOS16)

- Google location sharing does not work (GPS and maps are okay, but sharing location don't work. In maps is the notice "phone is not sending location updates" and button "fix" doesn't change anything)

- no deep sleep (I have a battery app which shows time of deep sleep. It works fine in CR6.1, but 0 minutes of deep sleep in LOS17. I had the same in LOS16). Maybe because of that the battery lifetime of a bit shorter than CR6.1)

- after one day use the phone becomes a bit laggy, especially when I wake up the phone

But it's nice to try Android 10 and I am curious for next updates. Thanks so far for your effort bringing new roms for my old phone.

Greetings Odiad

Oh - Pardon - wrong forum. It should be positioned in LOS17. How to delete this comment?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] cc-band:
Thanks, that worked, but OFFICIAL ROM only could be flashed WITHOUT ZIP-Verification.

I've tested the build from 20191123 today, looks like everything works. Last weekend I've had trouble getting camera to work but it seems fine this time. I'm going to try daily driving it as soon as Magisk module for stock camera gets fixed, it still causes bootloop. Progress on LineageOS 17 is very exciting though.

hi neo,

i just wanted to follow up on the always on vpn > block vpn bug i mentioned on the original lineage16 thread. i figured i would post it here since you are not using that thread any longer. i know you are busy. i wanted to get your thoughts and see if that bug could be fixed. i dont know if its an easy fix or hard fix but i would be willing to donate to your project if you can take some time to look into it. i dont like using my device without vpn but the vpn is pointless if the device is going to leak when my connection drops. let me know what you think like i said i can send over a donation for your time with this. thank u

Hello,

I experienced strange problem. I encrypted my phone. After I flashed xperia keyboard and dolby. Then, during boot pattern place became tiny and unusable. I formated data and reflash rom then flashed mods before encryption but after that process on boot I got same bug.

I'm trying to flash this rom, I have installed twrp 331, the thing is now that after wiping, twrp cannot detect the rom and also open gapps in the external sd card, but it can see magisk which is also on it.

Also after restarting not.

Edit; ok so i connected twrp with usb cable, then put rom and twrp in internal storage of phone.

Flashed rom; ok

flashed gapps 9.0 arm pico: error 70

checked on wipe, system, risize; 1500MB available

anyone know how to fix?

Fixed now: flashed rom again, not reboot, flash gapps; all fine now
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] davestuarts:
Though I have moved on, I'm glad I kept this phone. Tbh, it has plenty of power and usability and did not want to get rid of it, especially as the resale value was very low.

I want to use use it as a TV media device via mhl and would like to upgrade the OS too from Slimm rom.

Haven't got the mhl adapter yet.

My problem is that, the screen is cracked , with only 30-40% visibility and cannot use touchscreen.

I can use a usb mouse to control some of it though.

Is it possible to mirror this device via PC/TV so I can go through the flashing procedure, right from boot.

Wishful thinking?

Thx

update : I figured it out, with a combo of lanmote, vysor and previous experience, and lots of trial and with twrp/root issues and loss of partition, which is is still damaged, but managed to install Lineage OS 16.

Lineage works perfectly for me, tho I'm not using all the cellular features.

Now I just need to find a launcher or something with android TV layout.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] craftyguy:
Audio playback/mic during phone calls is all kinds of messed up :(

Here's a number of observations I've made, none of which existed on stock before installing LOS 16.0. "other phone" is a device that is connected to the z3c during a phone call.

When speaking on the other phone, you hear yourself after about half a second. This seems to suggest that perhaps the speaker/audio out on the z3c might be routed back to audio in and fed right back to the other phone?

Audio played through any speaker on the z3c (speaker phone or small speaker) stutters a lot and is very 'fuzzy'. This problem doesn't exist if all audio is through the headphones during a phone call.

The audio on the z3c during a phone call is super loud, about the same loudness as speakerphone. In fact, there's very little difference in volume between the two.

Again, none of these happened on the stock firmware. It seems like maybe this messed things up, so I effectively reverted it (making /system writable in recovery,and restoring the version of this file before the commit), but the results were the same. Not sure if that was the right way to revert it, I cannot really build LOS myself since this z3c is a daily driver for someone.. The device was completely wiped and flashed with the LOS build lineage-16.0-20191203-nightly-z3c-signed. I'm completely out of ideas for now, but the device is basically unusable as a phone without a headphone/external mic combo.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] NeoArian:
Well I can not reproduce that. On my device calling works good... Could you get some logs during the call and share them? (Not that I will have time soon but I can take a look next year)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] craftyguy:
[MENTION=8746471]NeoArian[/MENTION] Sure, here's a log of a simple/quick phone call where some audio was exchanged, and then the button to go to speakerphone was pressed after a few seconds with some more audio exchanged. Let me know if I can provide anything else to help!

Note, this was collected with the latest mixer_paths restored to be the same as what is found in the latest LOS daily for this device.
