[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] cizer.zoe:
Is the heating problem fixed?
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] simbanono:
Did tarkzim say that? Because if you read closely he clearly says: *Fixed RIL/Telephony issues.

Be patient, or buy a newer phone if you want android 10 within 2 days or maybe you should start helping him if you are this impatient instead of complaining.

Again, can you be patient or is that impossible? Its kind of a **** move to ask that in the forum thread that the guy is posting his work on. Maybe you should start helping him if you are this impatient instead of complaining.

[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] 9_Mad-Max_5:
I'm really sorry and I didn't want to offend anyone.

As I wasn't into Custom ROMS especially for the Z5 for the last 2 to 4 years and saw some activities in this forum.

I thought to myself maybe I ask the guys here what is possible at the moment.
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] simbanono:
Well the only stable version atm is 7.1.2 for now (lineageos 14.1)
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] cizer.zoe:
I'm not complaining, I'm asking questions
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] ImmaB:
The latest build is marked as "[ TEST BUILD ]". Is it more stable than the one from 2020/08/08?
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] sandronejm:
It is September build plus Fixed RIL/Telephony issues. Someone said that August build is more stable than September build.

Edit: can someone explain what ril / telephony issue are?
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] Berni-0815:
We have experimented with VoLTE, but that caused some instability regarding normal telephony operations.

Hello, first of all, thanks for you work on z5, I really appreciate it as I know very well how time consuming this is.

I'm using your sources for my own z5c builds (and Berni's) and have one big contribution now, I got the camera working !

See my posts in Berni's suzuran 15.1 forum, but the big update is that I confirm the solution is working in 17.1 also (contrary to my last statement in that forum, which I'm gonna update soon) - but in 15.1 it is fully working, and in 17.1 not fully (more errors in logs, not working in snap, but opencamera and simplecamera works, however I hadn't yet time to fully test it) but I hope now it can be resolved, I don't have so much time available, so maybe you'll be quicker than me, but now I'm sure z5 has a future (few days ago, I wanted to give up and proclaim it dead). So in 17.1, I use camerawrapper binary from suzu16.0, and different settings from Boardconfig.mk and device.mk, probably not final, once I'll finish it, I'll of course share it.

Hi There, Tarkzim - Love and appreciate the work!

Anyways, after clean flashing The new Lineage OS Rom i'm still having camera issues - after clearing Dalvick and Cache the camera will appear to work if not laggily - you can take a picture and then the app will crash and any time after trying to reopen the app or any other camera app will leave a black screen until both Dalvick and Cache are cleared. I'm using a Sony Xperia Z5 on the 26th of October 2020 Update. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Many Thanks

man, the gestures are not working here, what gapps did you use?
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] thebatmann:
yes, I also have the same problem. After taking a picture, the camera doesn't work anymore until you restart the device or something.

I also have battery issues. It draining so fast. I am leaving %100 at night, taking around %50-60. I didn't have that problem on previous version. Does anyone also have the same problem?
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] tarkzim:
No.

Gestures are fine.

Use 3rd-party camera apps.
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] RGK1:
Hi [MENTION=6407372]tarkzim[/MENTION], I've used multiple 3rd party apps - as described in my post above - I clean flashed derp fest but after launching the camera app the feed will be choppy - and after taking a picture it will save it but then the app will crash. Trying to launch the app again or another 3rd party app will show just a black screen for the camera output - this can then only be fixed by wiping cache and dalvick for it to only be able to take one picture before the process then repeats.

Many thanks

Ryan

[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] horsti2010:
Hi, first of all: Thanks for this ROM! Really, that is amazing. It so far works really great except for the camera. I can report the same experience: After taking a picture with Footej (stock and Open camera did not work) the screen remains black. I was once able to take three pictures in a row with Footej, but then tapped on "HDR" which causes the black screen. Only a restart (or I assume deleting cache and Dalvik) solve the issue. If that could be handled, everything is fine!

yes I have same battery issue. you're lucky! my battery is draining like %50 in 1 hour! first 2-3 days I had no problem but last 3 days battery is draining like water and phone is getting hot even when idle like something is working at the background! I deleted all apps but still same.

footej camera is working but when you taking a photo it gives error sometimes.

and I have some audio problems. when my phone is ringing then my ringtone is playing disorted and speaker mode (handsfree) is not working. they can't hear my voice.

I will make another clean install. without these problems rom is overally very good.

I had a look at the config.xml. It also says this...

"Should we listen for fingerprints when the screen is off? Devices

with a rear-mounted sensor want this, but certain devices have

the sensor embedded in the power key and listening all the time

causes a poor experience"

I noticed that the fingerprint sensor on my Z5 was live all the time. I'm not sure this is a good thing???

[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] nero10:
so many problems. this rom doesn't deserve a "stable" tag.

even cpu frequences are not valid!

CPU1: 1344

CPU2: 1536

normally first cpu is 1555Mhz and second one is 1958MHz!
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] K9100ii:
The CPU cores have been underclocked for less heat.
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] sandronejm:
And more battery economy, right?
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] :
Underclocking the little efficient cores means the big power hungry ones have to do more work, which is worse for heat and battery life.

They should remove this limitation and let users decide to underclock or not. If they want it underclocked by default it should be possible to revert it back to stock behaviour (without editing the kernel which is something most users can't do).

I used to fix heating issues myself by disabling the big cores entirely, but cutting 210 MHz from the little cores really destroys performance.

I hope this gets fixed at some point...
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] K9100ii:
I'm not really sure. There might be a slight improvement to battery life.

[MENTION=6407372]tarkzim[/MENTION] has reverted my change to the kernel underclocking the CPU, anyway, so it won't even matter.

A few things:

That's only theoretical. In my testing, in reality, with "normal" usage, the behaviour hasn't really changed after underclocking.

The thermal stack always sets the big cores to very low frequencies (I've seen 384MHz with the only 2 big cores online), and the small cores to lower than desirable frequenices (I've seen only 960MHz most of the time), anyway. Therefore, my underclock (I made the change to the kernel that underclocked the CPU, [MENTION=6407372]tarkzim[/MENTION] applied it a while later) doesn't actually really mean anything with that thermal stack.

In my real-world testing, I've found that there's actually considerably less heat with the CPU underclocked. A few were underclocking like this before I did so, too, and observed significant reductions in temperature as well, and there weren't any issues.

Except you can't underclock yourself. The thermal stack manages the frequencies for you. If you try to change the frequencies, it will change them back very quickly. If this wasn't the case, I wouldn't have needed to do a by-default underclock through the kernel.

Having (actually) 211 MHz less, 1555 -> 1344 MHz, shouldn't absolutely _destroy_ performance. In fact, thermal throttling takes place to frequencies below that.
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] :
If you keep the big cores active by default, i agree that you won't see much difference in performance loss. But if you like disabling them like i do, you are reducing performance on the already weak cores, which can often make a difference beetween a smooth animation and a lag at times.

I don't know anything about thermal stack and stuff like that (because with the big cores disabled you don't have to worry about thermals at all) but i'm not seeing this behaviour you are describing on my z5 compact (maybe it's something that was only added on the standard z5?)

I honestly have no idea what you are talking about here, i was always able to underclock to my liking using smartpak, ex kernel manager and other popular kernel editor apps. Unless there are big differences beetween z5 compact and standard z5 (i don't think that's likely but i could be wrong).

No, it shouldn't... unless you are only using the little cores like i (and many others) do... In that case, that's 211 mhz less on some already pretty slow cores, not a small difference.
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] glennza:
I've only been using this ROM for a week but the performance is much better than the stock ROM I was on before and it definitely is running a lot cooler. Huge improvement in battery life too. Great job!
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] K9100ii:
While 211 MHz is certainly not insignificant, I still find the very significant performance loss that you're describing somewhat unbelievable, even without the big cores, but I'll take your word for it. Maybe you have some heavy apps?

I just checked the device trees for the LineageOS 17.1 builds for your device. The thermal stack was removed. As the builds for your device that you're using don't have the thermal stack, you won't have the issues I was describing.

Perhaps a good compromise would be to keep the big cores underclocked, but set the little cores back to the stock frequency? Hmm...
[Xperia Z5 Original Android Development] :
the underclocking just got removed from the rom and 1. the phone is much smoother when opening/closing apps, the animation now almost never lags while it previously did 50% of the times (with big cores turned off) 2. i did a geekbench and i went from 1275 multicore / 606 single core to 1751 multicore / 663, i wasn't expecting such a big result to be honest.

That's what i would do, dosen't affect those who disable big cores entirely and also doesen't affect performance/thermals/battery life by much for those who keep everything stock.

I still think little cores at 1.5ghz are more efficient by big cores at more than 1 ghz for sure, and also the main issue is that when tasks move from little cores to big cores it often causes lags and stutters, it's not instant. Keeping little cores stock you'll reduce this.

Also another thing to point out: i think entropy is set a little too high by default, and this does nothing in 99% of apps, it just creates a lot of cpu load. I was able to set entropy to 8/0 with ex kernel manager and i noticed nothing but huge improvements in performance/thermals/battery.
