If you ask me, I haven't got a single use of drm keys on custom ROM. Yet since he/she gave an option, I recommended him/her to do so just in case.

For rooting, there is something called 'su' means super user which allows apps to access system as their wish. When you grant this capability in your system it's called rooting the device.

And currently only magisk is used to root the device. Magisk also has the option to hide root from apps you don't want.

So rooting is up to you and up to whatever guide you follow
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] ItchyTension:
Thanks, so I will skip the whole backup of the TA partition thing. I found this tutorial (https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=82182243&postcount=163) which should help me guide through the steps, but instead of flashing LOS I will flash your ROM.

Can you please confirm the basic layout:

1. Download the latest (*.228) firmware from xperifirm

2. Flash the FW [flash with newflasher]

3. Boot into it, probably even sign in and get to home screen

4. Reboot to bootloader

5. Flash twrp-3.3.1-0-lilac-android10-1.img using fastboot

6. Flash Havoc 3.9 with Gapps [flash with TWRP]

7. Reboot to Havoc 3.9

Will the Havoc 3.9 FW be rooted or not? Or should I flash magisk no matter what?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Rooted_Ansh:
I have edited above in the quote

And havoc is not rooted by default..

It will be rooted once you flash magisk.. and flashing magisk is up to you

Go to Settings > About Phone and tap 'About Phone' 7 times. Once done, you should have them in Settings > System

Thanks, I just finished flashing Havoc. Everything seems to work (will try GPS while moving later today). Do I have to repeat the procedure (flashing the stock ROM, flashing TWRP, Flashing your ROM) everytime you update the ROM?

I will paypal my donation this weekend ;)

Edit: GPS works great so far.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] baboon23:
To update just put the zip in your memory card, launch TWRP and flash it. Don't format or wipe... Flash it, wipe cache and boot system.

The next Havoc will probably be Android 11 though as Dev implied on Telegram, some like to Format in TWRP before they install a new android version. (9 --> 10 or 10 --> 11) but some just flash as usual without wiping anything and do just fine - to each his own.

In any case You never have to flash stock ROM again, unless you want stock someday :) Everything is done from TWRP.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] ItchyTension:
Thanks! For now I will enjoy Android 10, but Android 11 would be nice too.

[MENTION=8526938]Rooted_Ansh[/MENTION]

I keep getting the sony modem configuration notification. When I set my prefered data mode to 2G or 3G it switches back to 4G after a while and this notification arrives.

Can I do anything about it ? It's a bit annoying in zones with poor 4g coverage
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] baboon23:
Yea the first few builds on 11 will probably have trouble :) We are lucky to have a great stable last release of 10 that we can use while 11 is taking shape.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Rooted_Ansh:
Set it to 3G and reboot

If you find difficult in communicating here, you can join the telegram group link on the first page.. easier for both of us :)
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Rooted_Ansh:
BTW,

I will release a hot fix in a few days containing these extra changes:

- Fix IMS for Indian and Chinese carriers

- Make the network switcher app less annoying and mind it's business :P

Thank you for your patience :)
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Rooted_Ansh:
Update has arrived !

October HOT FIX:

• Links : No-GApps | GApps

Thank you for your patience !

NOTE: You will get reboot prompt that will change your network mode to 3G. You can switch back to LTE once you have completed the reboot prompt.

NOTE:

For users who have IMS support on stock but not on this latest build, provide me the below details from stock:

- The contents (files) in /cache/modem folder

- Your carrier name, mcc and mnc

- Your contents (files and folders) in /oem or /ocm

edit1: to clearify; i have Volte with Stock -> dirtyflash-, but get the netswitcher-notification quite often..

edti2: can the hotfix be dirty-flashed?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Rooted_Ansh:
Sorry for the late reply due to timezone difference..

Your edit 1:.. it is always recommended to flash latest build. And yes the network switcher notification will be less annoying in the latest build.

Your edit2: yeah it can be dirty flashed.

I have another question.. does this 0,amss_fsg_lilac_kpn_netherlands_ims_tar.mbn come in havoc too ?..

Also what was notification showing ? "IMS registration in progress ..." ?

I have requested access to the link.. seems like your content is private

First of all, you shouldn't apologize. Your work benefits us, so we're lucky to profit from the time you spend as a community, for the ROM , and your support. I don't expect you to reply within x amount of time, I'm already happy that you respond at all and spend you time and skill in this way!

That said;

Reply 1; check

Reply 2; check

Your other question; as notification text I get:

Status: success(0) config: amss_fg......tar.mb

IMS:Registered

This occurs multiple times a day

I think during boot if seen the registration in progress popup once.

Cheers
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Rooted_Ansh:
Seems like the "IMS: Registered" means that your VoLTE can work now..

Also is the "config" in notification contains your carrier name ? if yes then IMS is fixed for you.

The notification occurring multiple times a day can be fixed in the hot fix update

Thanks :D

Issues with Nova Launcher

So I installed Havoc (first CFW for my XZ1 Compact) last week and updated to the current version (dirty flash) last weekend. All (GPS, Battery Life etc.) works good so far, except for some flaws that I believe might be related to the Nova Launcher. I had one freeze of the device while it was idle lying on the sofa. When I touched it it was very warm (50°C after the restart). I also had several reboots, at least one per day. Sometimes I had to restart because the software keys at the button (I like the old Android experience better) disappeared and/or the app overview did not work any longer. I believe this is not the way it is supposed to be, so I thought I should start all over and re-install everything. Before doing that I switched back to the Havoc launcher and it seems that the phone works much better. It appears to be faster but even more important, no freezes or restarts so far. This is just one day so it might be too early to say that the problems are solved now, but I wanted to ask if anyone else experienced such issues with Nova or any other launcher?

I have to admit I miss the Nova launcher, but if I have to stick with the standard launcher that comes with Havoc I will do so. Apart from that, the ROM is awesome and it feels good to have all the security patches of the past 12 months :cool:

Or is there any other launcher (except Microsoft) you would recommend?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Fenderstratocaster87:
I called the operator they told me that volte service is active....maybe they told me just to say something...or not....I dont know :confused:

Question stock: download with Xfirm and flash with newflasher(erasing persist.sin and ta files)?right?

I tried De/ita/eu vers but nothing happen....volte dont appear in mobile menu

If I flash 4.a.1. then 4.2 could change something?:crying:
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] ItchyTension:
VoLTE also did not appear on the DE stock ROM on my device (neither on the ROM I used, nor after flashing it with newflasher). It does appear and is turned on in Havoc though. I am on Vodafone in Germany.

Tanti saluti, ItchyTension
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Rooted_Ansh:
Whenever such thing happens.. it is always recommended to restart the device.

The issue you explained haven't been experienced by anyone here.. you are the first one. Perhaps some google app must have glitched something.

From next time, better report a problem with these points mentioned:

- Using Gapps version or non-gapps version

- Any magisk module flashed ? If yes then name all of them

- if you use non-gapps version then which gapps version did you flash.

Thanks ! :D
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Rooted_Ansh:
Maybe when they started supporting IMS, sony must have stopped updating the device, hence it's not supported.

It is recommended to flash everything for stock. Persists and ta and everything you can.

Version of the flasher won't affect anything.

From the contents of your oem, you cannot get ims support because sony didn't add it.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] ItchyTension:
Yes, most of the time when the software buttons disappeared, I was still able to restart the device from the menu. Sometimes I had to restart the device using the hardware buttons, because it did not work at all.

Sorry,I flashed the Gapps version, no magisk installed (no root).

I also believe some google app must have glitched something, when using the Nova launcher. Spotify for example was super slow when using Google Chromecast Audio. E.g. it took 1-2 seconds to pause a song or change the volume. Now everything works instantly.

I will just say goodbye to the Nova launcher for now. Next time I do a clean installation (Android 11) I will try it out again.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] PeppeBove:
Yes i know, "ok google" means no privacy and battery such, we give our information to Google,

but

it's a tremendously useful and convenient service.

is there any way to reactivate it?

thank you

[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] ItchyTension:
Yes, I downloaded the stock rom, deleted all the *.ta files flashed it, flashed TWRP (realized that I forgot to open the bootloader before :eek: ; did that, flashed the stock rom again) and flashed Havic afterwards.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Fenderstratocaster87:

"It is recommended to flash everything for stock. Persists and ta and everything you can."

[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] remywizard:
How do I look at my OEM and see if this is my case? Is this true to all XZ1 Compacts or just certain version of it?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Rooted_Ansh:
First of all.. check if you have VoLTE or IMS support on stock. If yes, then no need to check oem.

In his case he didn't have ims support on stock itself hence it won't work on this ROM for him
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] remywizard:
I went back to stock and did not see any VoLTE or Wifi-calling options. I have talked to my carrier and made sure they enabled these features. Is there something else that they need to enable?

I would like to try and help get this working if I can.

What makes one xz1c work on stock and not another one?

Is there a way to get files or something else to try experiment with?

Is this specific to this ROM or all ROMs? I have tried LOS nd pixelexperience and get the same IMS unavailable message on each one.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Rooted_Ansh:
Your carrier might have enabled these features, but it won't work until sony has provided carrier specific modem file that is used by device for ims to work.

And sony stopped updating this device last September.. so can't do anything.

The point is if it works on stock, it should work on all custom ROMs.. otherwise nothing can be done.

I hope you understand :)
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] remywizard:
That makes sense thank you.

So ones that work must mean that Sony provided the carrier specific file back when they were updating the device still? Has anyone tried looking at these files and trying them on their device? I assume yes since you say nothing can be done. I am using a mvno on the AT&T network, seems like Sony would have made a file for AT&T. Perhaps I can talk to my mvno and get them to get this file from AT&T and get it to my phone?

Sorry to keep pressing the issue, just trying to ask a bunch of questions in case there might be hope.

Question/Suggestion

Huhu Rooted_Ansh,

is it possible to implement a feature I know from other builds? Long pressing the power button on Havoc only gives me the choice between restart and shut down. The options "Boot into Recovery" and "Screenshot" I miss a bit ;).

Nevertheless, thank you very, very much for your work!!!

So I still haven't given up. :D I ran across this thread: https://xdaforums.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/volte-wifi-calling-metropcs-probably-t-t3880189 and it seemed like someone did do what I was envisioning. So I dug into my phone and found a bunch of mbn files located here: /system/etc/customization/modem/ and I think the att one would work for me. I also was able to read out my sim_config_ids. But then I got lost when it was modifying the overlay apk and I didn't have anything in my /oem directory. And also theres the note about this only working in android 8.0. Do you think there might be a way with what camdecoster did? Or a way to spoof it into using a specific mbn instead of the default?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Rooted_Ansh:
Almost all the sim config ids are already present in this ROM.

There is no way to spoof the use of mbn. If you have "modem-config" folder in your stock /oem, it will definitely pick up the mbn, otherwise it won't.

Secondly, is there a file name in /system/etc/customization/modem that contains your carrier name ? If no then it won't work.

I feel so bad that you are trying so much for something that can't be accomplished :(

If it doesn't work on stock, it won't on any ROM :/

Low charging voltage

Hi! Does anyone have issues with charging the phone? I recently noticed that my XZ1C only charges at 3.8-4.1 volts (normal mA), which knowing this phone suports QC3 isn't normal. I have tested diferent chargers and maked sure battery is cold and the same. I'm about to buy a new charging port, taking advantage of that I'm going to disassembly it to change the battery (AIDA64 marks 2200mAh at 100%) and the speakers (they sound awful!!).

I just want to make sure that it is a problem of my phone charging port(???)

It can't be a Havoc issue, I suppose... But i have noticed since I installed Havoc (before I didn't have a voltage counter XD), that's why I'm asking here : )

sorry for not being completely related to the post :/

Thanks in advance!!
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Rooted_Ansh:
The speaker is your device issue.

The charging speed is like that for everyone. By default, battery care algorithm is enabled in which the charging rate decreases as battery percentage increases above 60 or 65

The voltage does vary from 3.8 to 4.1 depending on your device/battery temperature and usage while charging.

I installed this ROM on my XZ1 COmpact but it does not work. It boots up, phone is starting message appears and then phone reboots . This happens every time. This actually happnes with every custom rom on my phone.

When I rooted my phone 4 months ago, during backing up and restoring TA partition , I broke something inside the phone. Because of this no custom rom works on my phone. I have tried LOS 16, 17, Pixel exp and now Havoc rom, different month releases, installing using zip and img files, different firmware versions under the custom rom, repairing using emma, flashtool, newflasher; but nothing works. SOny rom works finely. it boots up, all functions on phone work well, everything is fine. But no custom rom works.

Can you help me with this ? Any idea how can I fix this cause hardwarewise my phone is fine and can be used for a long time ? I am willing to provide any logs or screenshot from phone if you need.

Like I said, whenever I install a custom rom using zip or IMG file, the phone boots up, lockscreen appears, phone is stating message appears and then phone reboots. This goes on forever. When I flash stock ROM, it loads up and works finely . how to find what the problem is how to troubleshoot this?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] AlexKarimov:
So how do you know something broke? You said it happened during the TA backup/restore but how do you know that's when it happened? Was there an error that popped up? Maybe you could give us a general summary of what steps you went through to unlock and root your phone.

Also, what are your steps for flashing a custom ROM? Say you start fresh with newflasher, then what? When you're flashing the ROM through twrp, do you get an error during flashing? When you boot after flashing, how long does the bootloop last before you give up? What's the longest you've allowed it to go on?

I know it sucks if you have to repeat yourself but the more info you give, the more chance someone might be able to help.
