Thank You!

First of all, thank you very much [MENTION=6427265][Shujath][/MENTION], for creating this great ROM for our XZPs.

My G8141 was intact in all way running the latest stock Pie by Sony. So yesterday I had a hard evening/night figuring out how to unlock bootloader, flash stock and then Bliss and get everything working fine.

Now, as everything is settled and all the apps are set up, I can now say that this ROM is a Awesome! :D It is flawless and very customizable. From now on, I don't want to replace my G8141 to any other phone. :)

I also updated to the newest 12.10 version today.

I noticed the following things till now:

1.

Bank application sees root

With Magisk I could manage to hide root from my bank's current application. However this company has already made another app which is in beta version but will replace the current one as soon as it becomes stable.

The strange thing is that - beside both bank apps are ticked in Magisk Hide - the new beta app can see that the system is rooted. It states that my device has not passed SafetyNet check so I cannot register. (screenshot attached - sorry, it's hungarian)

–> It is not a big deal now, but if they replace the old app with the new one it will be unusable to me.

2.

System recognized my device as G8142, not G8141

which is weird. I just wanted to mention this.

3.

The newest Android System Webview from Google Play causes problems

in Gmail, Paypal, MicroG, etc. But I noticed that if I switch the GPU Renderer from Vulkan (Skia) to one of the OpenGL (Default or Skia) it solves the problem. However, as soon as I reboot the device, it forgets this setting, and swtiches back to Vulkan.

4.

Still slow SIM card detection on G8141 after reboot.

After I flashed the 12.10 version of Bliss, It takes 1-2 minutes again to recognize the SIM card. So I flashed [MENTION=5503871][Beetle84'][/MENTION]'s patch again and it solved the problem. On the other hand, this small patch caused minor cosmetic problems, meaning that the system shows as if the 12.7 version is installed on the device. (screenshot attached) Also stating that the Android security patch level is May 5, 2020.

I gave it a try and reflashed the 12.10 and after that it was showing the correct versions. However, if I flash the small patch for SIM recognition, the system will show again the 12.7 as if it is installed.

5.

VoLTE is not working

, BUT it wasn't working on Stock SONY Pie either so it might be unsupported by my carrier.

Nevermind.

This is all I came across so far.

Again I want to express my appreciation and gratefulness [MENTION=6427265][Shujath][/MENTION], for this ROM. It saved my XZP.

I also donated you via the given PayPal link on the first page.

Regards,

Áron

Alright Guys, WebView issue is now identified and fixed, Flashed this attached ZIP file to fix the blank screen on the apps. :)

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=8889791610682898594

1. SafetyNet is very tricky, It may stop working on our device at anytime.

Anyway its passing in magisk so it should pass in your bank app as well unless its using some other new method to detect Root(About which we cannot do anything)

2. This ROM is built for Dual SIM but works fine on single sim too, So if you see G8142 its not a big deal.

3. Flash the attached ZIP file to fix the webview issue.

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=8889791610682898594

4. Dont install any patches as of now to avoid any further issues, again this rom is built for Dual sim and still working on single sim, only network detection is delayed ;)

5. If you see the installation instructions, Volte will only work if it worked on stock ROM.

Lol, that donation link is for Bliss ROM team and not for me.

Thanks for the feedback.

Hello.

For update, have to clear cache and dalvik/art cache? Or anything else?

---------- Post added at 01:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:50 AM ----------

It's necessary for 12.10?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] WolfAyron:
I don't know if it is >necessary< but what I saw in every other custom ROM update was doing this, after flashing.

So I did wipe cache and dalvik after flashing 12.10 and gapps. Everything's working fine for me.

Yes, cause the issue is still present in latest version.

Thanks [MENTION=6427265][Shujath][/MENTION] for the reply and for the webview fix.

Yeah, they might be using new methods in their new app. Anyway, the current app is working great with Magisk.

UPDATE: I found an article here, describing the situation: https://www.androidpolice.com/2020/03/11/safetynet-improvements-kill-magisk-hide/

Okay. I reflashed the 12.10, and your webview fix too, and it's working fine now. :)

However, are you planning to implement the SIM detection fix in next builds?

Thank you,

Áron
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Xormin:
Hi,

I've tried to install the zip but after reboot the problem was still there, I had to change the renderer gpu and everything was fine.... don't know why:(

Moreover after flashing the zip, Google search is always blank even with the changed gpu renderer.

Another question: is there anyway to reduce the space between the app preference bar on the home screen and the other app(I'd like to attach an image but I'm receiving bad request :( )?

Thank you!
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] WolfAyron:
I don't know what can be the problem, but I think you should flash again the new update: 12.10 I did this:

- Go to Settings > System > Bliss Updater > BlissRoms v12.10 - Click Install and reboot to TWRP

- In TWRP > Install > Select the bliss 12.10 update which is located in \data\bliss_updates\ and add open_gapps_arm64-10.0-pico/nano-20200723.zip too.

- Install them > Wipe Cache and Dalvik > Reboot to system.

- When system is up, and the 'Finishing system update' notification is gone too, reboot to Recovery again.

- In Recovery > Install > select the webview fix zip by Shujath and flash. > Just reboot (don't wipe)

It should work now. You can check in Settings > System > Developer options > Webview implementation if the current Android System WebView is 81.0.4044.138. (screenshot attached) Cause this is what was in the webview fix zip.

Regarding these, I do not know, sorry. I neither use Google Search bar, nor Google app and I use Nova Launcher.

But if you could upload somehow a screenshot, it might would help.

Cheers
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Xormin:
Ok I see, in the developer options I found out that the 84 versions of webview was still running, so that was the problem!

Now everything works fine :)

As soon as I can I will try to attach a screenshot of the space in the home screen that i'd like to reduce

Thank you so much again!
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] lynxlok94:
Grabbed it from telegram and enabled with Magisk after reboot but still doesn't work.

Does it work with 12.10 bliss?

Any steps I'm missing?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Incrovantilist:
For some reason the DT2W is not at all present in settings of Bliss 12.10. It definitely worked for me on 12.9, even without the magisk module. But regardless of option present in settings, that module should activate DT2W (it did so for me in early Los17.1 builds). Also I was informed that DT2W won't work on all XZPs because of difference in screen parts or something. So if it has never worked for you on any other rom of any android version, it probably will not work now.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Grog.Al:
So far so good fellows! No patch needed for carrier signal: 30 seconda to find it. I had to patch web view and all works good.

As always issues with google maps geo localization: is not working properly and photo album too. The rest is a breezing beast
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] WolfAyron:
After further usage of this great ROM this is what I've found.

1. Sound names does not show up, just destination line.

I can confirm [MENTION=5796940]Hakkinen3K[/MENTION]'s mentioned issue, that the sound names does not appear correctly. (screenshot attached). Just my own sound that I manually put into the Ringtones folder.

2. Album app does not work.

And I think that is why the photo preview does not appear in the camera app, after you take a shot or recording.

3. Camera button not always opens camera app.

I swtiched on the Camera button function to open camera app, even if screen is off. It's not reliable. Sometimes it opens the app, sometimes does not do anything.

4. Split screen behaves strange AND with full gesture controls, could not make to work at all (recorded video about the issue here, on YT: https://youtu.be/pYY5sS0JbRw)

I set my home button long press for split screen action. Well, if I long press the home button while I'm in an app, it does not automatically splits the screen and show recents to choose another app as it should behave.

It does nothing. So after I long press Home button, I have to either press Back or Home button once, to split the screen and choose another application.

5. Sometimes the whole system UI freezes for 5-30 seconds.

I need more testing cause I couldn't yet determine in what conditions does it happen, but it is related to Bluetooth music streaming, Wifi/Carrier Data turning off/on and interacting with notifications simultaneously, if I remember well.

6. Interacting with notifications often reacts slowly.

When I Snooze or Dismiss an alarm tapping on it's notification in the notification bar, or tap on Mark as read on a message it often stays there for 3-8 seconds, until it disappears, or it doesn't vanish at all, and I have to swipe it to hide.

7. NFC is working well

I tested it with my SBH52 bluetooth headset and used in some shops at the cash-desk and I could pay via NFC so no issues so far. :)

8. USB OTG

I have a Sandisk 256GB USB3.0/Type-C Dual Flash Drive which is divided into a FAT and an exFAT partition.

Previously on Stock Sony Pie, everything was OK. On Bliss, it recognizes both partitions too, and can use the FAT one, but not the exFAT. It asks me to format the exFAT drive in order to use, but I have many important things on this partition so I'wont do that for now. I will make a backup and then try to format it with the phone and see what happens.

Cheers!
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Incrovantilist:
1. Happened to me too. Install Google Sounds for now and the issue itself will vanish when you dirty flash the next update. Atleast that's what happened to me.

2. Album app does not work for now. OP is making great effort and progress in bringing stock apps to AOSP. Don't pressure him by keeping on asking about a known issue. That's how we lose good devs.

For those who are unable download the attached apk, here's the apkmirror link -

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] WolfAyron:
Thanks for the zip. :) But I will wait for Shujath to fix this, as he told us in a previous post not to flash anything beside the ROM as it might cause issues later.

If you check my previous post again, you can see that I neither pressure, nor asking him about known issues. I just confirmed what others said, that Album does not work.

The more confirming feedback comes for a specific thing, the more prove it gets that it is a common issue, not just related to one's device for example. ;)

Cheers!

How to enabled cam2 api in this rom?

I have a problem with the rom in sony maple, the touch screen stops working a couple of hours after installation, only the buttons respond. but the screen doesn't.

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Grog.Al:
It's too little information to provide support.

Did you do a clean or dirty flash?

You are the first to report this issue (if I am not mistaken) so it is good to provide more info about phone model (single or dual sim), If you were in stock or custom rom and custom recovery used to flash...as well as steps followed to install bliss rom.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] mrchino_mapache:
Hello, how are you? I have done clean installation, I have a dual sim xzp, and it has only happened to me with the last two updates, with twrp 3.3, it is a shame because this ROM I have it in an s8 + and I love it

Enviado desde mi SM-G955F mediante Tapatalk
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Grog.Al:
Well I am fine thank you! Hope you are good too.

So it happened first time with 12.9 update and was present also after 12.10?

Did you wipe cache and dalvik cache after update?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] mrchino_mapache:
Yes I started on 12.9 and I had to remove the ROM because the touch on the screen did not work only on the buttons, then when 12.10 left I installed it clean again, and in a couple of hours the same, I always do full wipe before and then to avoid any errors, I use magisk 20.4 to manage the root and no modules, I use Titanium to restore the apps I need, basically social networks and the Lawnchair launcher

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Grog.Al:
OK, so just to be sure:

You were on last stock rom 47.2.A.10.107?

Followed steps provided in second Shujat's post?
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] mrchino_mapache:
ufffff there yes it was bad because I do not remember it since I unlock the bootloader and put root I have not returned to Sony ROM, [emoji17][emoji17][emoji17]

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Grog.Al:
If I were in your boots I would go back to last stock rom and redo it from there.

That point is worth to check.

Good luck with it, hope someone else will give advice on the matter.

Google play system update

Not work. And in the latest patch BlissRom Updater App. not found the Internet Server. No more update, i muss manually search in Browser and updating the next patch.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] WolfAyron:
Thank you for the update.

Meantime what I've noticed so far (before the update) is that

1. Force dark mode reverts back to Off after reboot.

— I usually use not just the simple dark mode but I switch on the force dark mode. However, after I reboot it switches off.

— What is more can there be a Whitelist option for Force dark mode? For example in my keyboard app behaves very strange and the buttons become somewhat invisible. So this way I could prevent it to be force darkened.

2. Exchange email address requires adding a lockig method (PIN/Fingerprint) after reboot.

— I synced my company email address to my phone and it requires PIN and/or fingerprint usage, restricts the screen off time to maximum 10 minutes, and so on...

— When I reboot the phone, some secs later, a notification appears saying that the exchange account wants me to set a locking method so I click on it, click next, give my current PIN, but after that I don't have to do anything, because it realises that I already have one.

3. Communication problem in Google apps.

— I noticed that since some days there weren't any update shown in Google Play Store, I have not received any email, and could not upload/download/open any file in Google Drive. And it behaves very strange.

— I had a small surgery this week and for there is no wifi near my room in the hospital, I purchased a 3-day unlimited mobile network package. The problem turned out now.

So if I use carrier data, Play, Drive, Gmail cannot communicate with the server saying there is no internet connection -> which is not true cause I can browse the internet, watch Youtube, etc...

BUT if I connect to a VPN server, surprisingly I can see updates in Play, receive emails in Gmail and open files my drive.

I could not yet try if the problem is present when I use wi-fi, but today I'm leaving the hospital, so by the evening I can check it.

Has anybody noticed something similar?

Its working for me so it should work for all

On 07th Aug build
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] WolfAyron:
I can confirm what others already mentioned. Maps crashing and phone reboots. (On latest build)

Stock Email app does not work (won't start).

Google Drive still cannot open/download/upload files on carrier network. It says, no connection. I have to use vpn or switch to wifi to get it working.

I don't know if this can give you more information, but SafetyNet check in Magisk gives success on wifi. However, on carrier network it shows SafetyNet API Error.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Shujath:
Hmm strange,

The Maps issue was on 06th August Build which was uploaded in Error.

On 7th there was another Build uploaded which is approximately of 1.4 Gigs size as it have Gapps included.

Can you confirm you are on 07th Build?

I will investigate on the Email issue....

CTS? we dont know when its gonna stop failing for us as magisk developer have also confirmed the same.

Edit, found the issue with maps

Apologies guys it's my bad, download and flash this boot I'm in twrp to fix maps bug :good:

I'll look into other reported bugs

Maps

Work, thanks.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] WolfAyron:
Thank you, with new boot image, maps working again. After flashing it, I had to reflash Magisk too.

Regarding the Email app crash, in the attachments you'll find a logcat and here's a video also: https://youtu.be/Ihh8WHUiV2M

Ummm, yes I know the current situation with Magisk and SafetyNet.

The reason why I mentioned that the safetynet check has success on Wi-Fi and fails on carrier network is because I thought it might somehow connect to the situation, that all the Google apps I use including Play, Gmail, Drive and Calendar, cannot communicate with the server on carrier network (both 3G and 4G), but via VPN or Wi-Fi it can.
