We found and fixed the cause. Builds for the Z3 and Z3 Compact are in the process of getting re-released. Sorry for the issues.

Just tested the latest build and can confirm all the funky issues from the previous build has been ironed out.

Snappy, stable and ready to be used as a daily driver for anyone who's concerned. :)

Thanks again for the continued support for the Z3, highly appreciate all the work and the quick fixes.

Thanks for your hard work! Myself5!

I successfully transit from your CR 6 to your CR 8 without any problem. Just wondering there is a very useful function on CR 6, that is recent tab can close all running apps button & real-time memory reading, I couldn't find it on CR 8, would it be possible to add it to the CR 8?

Yours fan

Having troubles with TWRP 3.3 install

Hi all! Firs of all thanks to everybody who is still working on this device, and those who answer faqs. Like my question...

I'm trying a lot of things and can't do TWRP 3.3 works on my D6653 Z3 device.

I just asked it on Z3c forum just couse don't see this one. So for not make it longer i will tell what i'm doing now.

Like a read a suggestion to install CR8 with CR6.1 prev installed, and i having .291 stock pre rooted like other suggested. I proceed to install LineAge OS 15 just to keep base things, and i will try install TWRP by FOTAKernel or Recovery. I will try to install it from TWRP 3.2 already installed. I will try to install recovery first, couse i know we need newer TWRP for install Android 10.

If its works, i will make another reply on this thread jus telling what i have to do.

But, someone say that you can enter recovery holding DownVol Button + Power until its turn screen on... doesn't work to me.

I don't know what more to do... so if you can help me i will be gratefully with you! Thanks again!!

Making mistake anyone could fail. What i was doing wrong is to install .570 instead .291

So, i thanks a lot to [MENTION=4637019]jmpcarceles[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5824885]nikapos[/MENTION] who helps me on LOS 17 thread (https://xdaforums.com/z3/orig-development/9-lineageos-16-0-z3-t3981379/page11#post82630639)

For those who still having problems:

1- First unlock booloader [https://developer.sony.com/develop/o.../#unlock-code]

2- Then flash .570 with emma tool from Sony

3- Flash .291 stock, non prerooted, with flashtool (Donwload with XperiFirm)

4- Dowload latest twrp from post #1 of this thread (LOS17 thread)

5- Flash it with FOTAkernel option

6- Finally flash LOS 17.1 or CR8 (i install CR8 instead LOS17)

7- Inmediatly Flash Magisk v20.4 and Gapps.

8- Reboot and enjoy.

Does anyone have the same problem as I do with this CR 8 latest version. Even earlier versions.

Flashing cr-8.0 on xperia z3 "leo"

Hello all!

I am trying to update my sony xperia z3 "leo" from carbonrom 6.1 to carbonrom 8.0, but i am facing an issue and i am not understanding where i am making mistake ( or mistakes :) ).

Well, first of all I had to edit the updater-script, making it able install the ROM on model "leo" too and not only on model "z3" ( maybe is the error here? I don't know if there is any real difference from z3 model and leo model ). Then i wiped everything from TWRP 3.2.3 ( do I need a new version ? ), installed the new ROM and rebooted the phone. It gets to the load screen of carbonrom 8, stucks there for a while, then reboot back to TWRP. No Gapps installed.

Now i am again on carbon rom 6.1, the updater keeps on telling that there are updates available...but obviously i can't update the phone.

Any idea? I admit I am getting a bit lost while searching for a solution

Thank you for the help!

[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] chris8189:
Flashed it to my dad's Z3. This ROM is very nice indeed.

The camera doesn't work for me, however.

The front facing camera does, but the rear camera doesn't. This was a clean flash from stock Marshmallow. It's strange how some users are reporting a working camera and others are in the same boat as me.

It also doesn't seem to save the photo into the Gallery when I take a photo with the front facing camera. Must be my ugly face it doesn't like :laugh:

Looking forward to further updates pushed to the device. Keep up the fantastic work, dev's. Really appreciate the work you've put in to bring Android 10 to the old Xperia Z3.

Could we please get a patch for Z3 Dual D6633? It recognizes the SIM card but it says no service and radio refuses to turn on using the #*#*4643#*#* code menu.

I already tried the patches from the other threads but they don't work at all on this ROM and the other Lineage OS 17.1 ROM...

---Edit---

After spending some time trying to get cellular connectivity working on this ROM with my Z3 Dual D6633, I edited the dual sim patch from the other thread and finally got it work with this ROM (it might as well work with the other Lineage 17.1 ROM but I didn't try it myself)

I tested with single SIM, there was good signal, phone calls work fine, can call, can receive calls, mic works no problems.

Here's the modified patch and I hope it helps someone else out: mega. nz/file/67h0QQIZ#XJoylYUsruZ-HNxfZFbHvY-MdsYFnIyjFtFRL9brHE8

Hello,

I've installed this rom from a Carbon Rom 6.1 and now my phone wont boot. Even the Sony logo is not shown.

I've access to fastboot and a TWRP recovery when I press the power and down buttons at same time. I've tried to boot and install another ROM boot.img but I get this error:

fastboot: error: Couldn't parse partition size '0x'.

Is there any way to fix this problem?

EDIT: After a long time trying to format some partitions I was able to install the old Carbon ROM and now boots. I'll try to install this ROM again.

Nothing... just install the rom and wont boot...

Thanks.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Daniel_Lechu:
Hello again,

Finally I made it work. I've just had to reinstall the latest firmware with Sony Flash Tools (loosing all my data), so maybe my bootloader was upgraded but no to latest version. Now seems to work without problem. The only thing I've seen is that doesn't have battery stats, ¿is that normal or is my installation?

Best regards.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] nikapos:
if you were able to install it then you most probably are to the upgraded bootloader, flash tool takes care of that. as for battery stats, they take some time to create, no worries. they should be ok by now.

Thanks!!

About the stats, how many time they need?, because for now I still having no stats.

Also I've found that adaptive Brigthness is not working.

I have installed the latest version of CARBON-CR-8.0-PAX-RELEASE-z3-20210128-1033.

Magisk v20.4 + MagiskManager-v7.5.1 works great.

The only thing that doesn't work well is the camera that doesn't write to the memory card. It also does not respond to changes in settings, e.g. ISO.

I changed this camera to OpenCamera 1.48.3 which doesn't open the gallery when clicking on the thumbnail but that's a minor problem. The weird thing is that the same OpenCamera worked fine in the CarbonROM cr-6.1.

Edit, while the text says for Qualcomm devices, I searched around and it seems different models can use such feature provided the Kernel has it.

Tried to root via patched boot image installed through fastboot and also via TWRP. Neither worked. Clean install from old .291 via flash tool, then TWRP via fastboot, then data-caches wipe, then CR 8-25-2021(android 11), Opengapps, then fastboot patched boot.img Where's my error?

Just found this on Reddit.. might work:

------------

You should be able to factory reset the watch from recovery:

Hold down the button until the Huawei logo appears. Keep holding until the long vibrate.

Immediately release the button and then press and release it again quickly.

You should be in fastboot mode. Cycle through the options by pressing the button until you get the "reboot-recovery" option. Hold down the button to select and wait for it to start up in recovery mode.

Swipe down to "wipe data/factory reset" and then swipe over to select it. Swipe down to Yes and then over to confirm.

------------

Fingers crossed! [emoji846]
