[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] tharghan:
Mine is Exynos, and even the 20+ from this other guy having problems with samsung own 15w wireless is exynos. Would be sad if this was just another problem with exynos, not being able to charge it as fast as with SD. You've been very kind, the last thing you could do is maybe sometimes when you charge it, see if accubattery is really always at 1000mA or more, or actually drops by half if not more for you as well sometimes. I'd be happy to even have a steady 700-800mA charge, problem is that its almost always under 500, but for a very short time i DO see it going up to 1400 so it means the power provided can reach the phone, it just doesnt last, i really wonder why.

If you could check once in a while would be really appreciated. Thanks man!
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] digitaljeff:
It's been solid @ this rate till ~60% then drops down to 1000-1200 ... haven't seen any spikes or dips, it's pretty consistent. Don't know what to say, it's a bummer that your device seems to have issues with Qi charging. And doubly sucks if it's an issue w/ Exynos devices. Wish there was another person here who could chime in
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] tharghan:
Seems everything is in order with you. I also wish more people would jump in sharing experiences, sadly it seems not many of us charge it with wireless. Other day I was searching online and on Reddit I found some s20+ exynos user with the samsung 15w wireless original charger with the same problem, there would be almost no difference between that charger and a 5w one. The chances that its both his charger faulty and my s20 ultra as well are very low (beside my s20 with cable and 25w samsung charger goes to full in about an hour, and if it was a problem with wireless it wouldnt charge at all all the time ), so maybe the problem could actually be exynos but who knows... anyway thanks a lot for your help, lets hope someone else jumps in this thread. I was almost rdy to buy the (very expensive) 15w samsung charger but at this point im not even sure its really faster.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] tharghan:
Update: just put on the pad to charge, was at 26%, went to 32% and accubattery showed always 1400-1500mA. Now its stuck below 500 again, temperature 36.4C so not even hot to drop. I really am gettin pissed off at this, how is it possible it charges full power for a short time and then drops.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] tharghan:
Another update... Anker just replied to my email sent days ago about my problems with the charger, here it is:

"Recently, our various markets have feedback that this S20 cannot achieve fast charging. The specific reason is that our engineers are still testing. Because we did related tests before it was put on the shelves, there was no problem. But now it is confirmed that there is a problem, so we recommend that you do not buy new products for now."

So apparently there is a known problem, altho im not sure hes talking about s20 in general or about s20 ultra since i wrote i had an s20 ultra in my original email. Also its not clear if its just markets with exynos or those with SD as well. But it does seem that there is a problem that they know about...

Some tips

How to pass

SafetyNet Check

that is, hide root permissions from apps that detect it

Magisk 20.4 does his work pretty well, so often just flash Magisk zip directly after flashing the ROM, then reboot.

If you already flashed and booted ROM, don't wipe anything, but try this.

• Flash Magisk;

• Reboot to system;

• Open Magisk, enable Magisk Hide from settings, then go to Magisk Hide section and hide:

- PlayStore

- PlayService

- Google Pay (if installed)

• Go to Settings > Apps and wipe data of:

- PlayStore

- PlayService

- Google Pay (if installed)

• Open PlayStore and wait ~1 min. Then go to settings section and scroll down. There should be: Certified Device.

After this, from Magisk hide all apps that you don't want to detect root permissions and they shouldn't detect it anymore.

How to fix camera crash

Camera crash occurs because of cache optimization that isn't present anymore when you dirty flash and wipe cache/ART. You'll need to recompile it opening a terminal emulator (Termux) and using:

cmd package compile -f -m speed com.sonyericsson.android.camera

(Thanks to derf elot)

Why GCam doesn't works?

Modded GCams need full RAW support, that is locked on ROM based on Sony Stack (like this). So GCam will simply crash if installed. Anyway there is one version that doesn't use API2 and works almost well, you can download it directly from PlayStore. Obviously it won't support HDR+ (and currently I don't plan to add it, it is far beyond my skills).

[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] JimKatsanos:
to anyone who is going to ask here: NO. GCAM MOD IS NOT WORKING SINCE IT'S STOCK BASED.

thank you:)

great rom:)
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] pleniceanu cristian:
But Google camera is working, good enough for me

It is not high customisable but very stable, you wouldn't feel the difference between stock and this ROM
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Gabrius99:
Yeah, Arnova's modded GCam does not work because of lack of raw support.

You can install GCam from PlayStore though. It hasn't HDR+, but photo sphere works.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Parallax's:
problem with app not allowing rooted phone
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] pleniceanu cristian:
I have rooted phone, everything ok
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Gabrius99:
I updated post #2 and I wrote a brief guide on how to pass safetynet check. Try that
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] pleniceanu cristian:
The good: Very stable ROM, almost everything tested seems to be working, stable network signal, the most stable so far. I hope it gets updates at some point. Good work.

Anyone wishing for a close to stock stable Android 10 should try it.

The bad: the stock camera is crashing but that's already said.

It would be great if you could bring Sony sound settings but that is a little harder I think
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Gabrius99:
Thanks for feedback. There is a fix in the second post. Starting from next build it shouldn't crash anymore on clean flash though. Do you have a XZ1 single sim or dual?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] pleniceanu cristian:
Single.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Speaker87:
Don't know what i'm doing wrong, but after flashing ROM via TWRP, phone reboots to TWRP and Will nota boot to OS.

Any hint?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Gabrius99:
You should format data and remove encryption
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Speaker87:
Thanks you for the hint, i'll try and feedback
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Speaker87:

Changelog:

- Updated to Android 10_r41 - August patches

- Kernel updated to version 4.4.234;

Thanks to [MENTION=4063475]derf elot[/MENTION] who did a great work.

How to update:

No need to clean flash, you can simply apply the update from TWRP.

Anyway, if weird issues occur, you should clean flash and retry. Soemtimes you need to format /data partition after clean flash to remove completely the encryption.

Does VoLTE work on this rom like BlissRom?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Gabrius99:

[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] pleniceanu cristian:
On havoc, I don't have charging issues.

I just bought XZ1 Single Sim. I would like to install this Pixel Experience immediately, but I see that there is no official TWRP, so which recovery should I flash after unlocking the bootloader?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ASR1998:
you can use twrp from this thread

https://xdaforums.com/xperia-xz1/development/rom-lineageos-17-0-unofficial-beta1-t4026105

make sure your cellphone model is G8341(single global) before install
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] rdlhms_:
I have xz1 dual g8342 ... Can u tell link of twrp for my phone?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] alessiof89:
Ok. I have installed the Pixel Experience without any problems. It seems to me that everything I tried works: wifi, camera (both), LTE, audio jack, fingerprint (although not perfect). There is only one problem: there was no way to get Adfree or Adaway to work. I currently use Blokada but it consumes a bit of battery. Any solutions?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Gabrius99:
You can try Magisk's AdAway. I haven't used it for a long time, but that systemless module should work
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] alessiof89:
Ok. It seems to work. For those who have the same problem as mine, I followed these steps:

1. In Magisk Manager settings enable 'Systemless hosts'.

2. Reboot.

3. Install AdAway.

4. Update filter.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] JimKatsanos:
Derf said that ims got finally fixed:)

Are you going to include it in your next upd?

Thank you so much for this rom:))
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ASR1998:
BATTERY LIFE

I moved from stock to custom rom then back to stock again because of its stability, but to move to a custom rom it must be ready to be unstable, but what I consider more is simple, the camera and battery life.

I see the pe plus unofficial build is stable, but I see a lot of Google applications installed on this ROM, more than the stock ROM.

which rom do you think has the longest sot?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Gabrius99:
I've been very busy, but I saw something. In the next update I will add all the recent upstream

It's very personal, for me, for example, it has a good battery life, some user reported that it has the better battery life, but again is very personal and currently all the ROM are very stable, so try and judge yourself :)

There aren't many Google apps installed, but there are some pixel parts, maybe you're talking about them
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ASR1998:
???

whoaa thanks gabriel.

i will install it hahaha ???

[MENTION=6307885]Gabrius99[/MENTION], great job on this rom.

Not that big of a deal but when I turn automatic dark theme (until sunrise and sunset) on, after every reboot it goes to light theme. Manual dark theme works fine.

Again not a big issue at all and I don't know, maybe it just happens to me.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Gabrius99:
Many people reported this bug. It could be caused by some weird location settings, nothing that I can directly fix. A simple way to have it working properly is setting dark mode manually, then activating automatic dark theme. Tomorrow you'll find that it worked correctly and it set light theme. Sometimes it requires 1-2 day to fix itself, but it is certainly strange
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] sohrab1985:
No problem mate. I love this rom just the way it is. Great job. Thanks for the tip.

A few issues con camera:

- camera phisical button don't start che camera app (like in stock ROM)

- in the sony stock camera app doesn't appear the preview of the last shot on the bottom right

Anyone have the same issues?

Thanks in advance!
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] JimKatsanos:
there's a thing called "auto photo preview" or something like that under settings. turn to on. also, the physical button thingy is a known bug. Only works on LOS at this moment.

Hope I helped, have a great day:)

[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jagltoro:
Flashed the rom, apparently all good. The only thing is that apps doesnt seem to acknowledge my SD card.

Camera says: Memory Unavailable.

And playstore doesnt recognize it either.

Formatted the SD card inside the phone too (And rebooted), doesnt work

I flashed the latest PE and as you know it didn't boot. Then I sent the logcat to

Hamza so that he sent it to you to see what the issues are. I myself tried many different kernel and also vendor but no luck.

Anyways, what about you, any progress toward the next version of PE. OR MAYBEEEE android 11 down the road perhaps? :):):)

I like you mate and I like your work so if you ever needed a hand to test something, count me in, it'll be an honor.

I already install the latest build PE official

But I think, this rom very laggy on my phone

What should I do?

Before I install PE, I flash with softbank rom
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] sohrab1985:
I haven't tried the latest SODP PE, but I tried the one before that and it wasn't comparable to this rom at all.

I suggest that you forget about the SODP, and flash this rom and see the differences.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] charly.novianto:
Woow, i have tried 2 rom pixel experience official, it is same, lag and sometimes stuck

Okay, i will try this rom

Hello, i want to flash from PE Official to this ROM

Can I flash without erase my data?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] alpadolmeri:
Hello. Yesterday I installed this ROM. I found some small issues to fix.

1) Camera hardware button is not working like other ROMs I tested before, but this time I am not able to fix because I can not find camera button in menu Settings > System > Buttons. I can just enable double tap on power button to launch camera app. Do you know how to enable camera hardware button without install third part software ?

2) Which camera app is suggested ? Sony stock or Google camera ? I found both installed.

3) Battery drain seems to be a little higher than with other ROMs tested before and based on previous Android version. Can I use LKT magisk module to reduce battery consumption ?

4) I installed BBS but I receive this error -> "better battery stats app ops usage stats not granted". What is wrong ?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] JimKatsanos:
1) it isn't expected to work, it only works on some exact roms plus this one is kinda old, if you want the pixel experience stuff but you don't need face unlock , definitely try havocos. 2) sony sony sony. It's stock based so gcam is mostly useless. 3) clear cache/davlik and flash the latest pop kernel.4) well I don't know :/
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] charly.novianto:
Well, i love this rom so much, no lag, stable dan everything is okay

But, don't do factory reset or you will get memory leak, the storage is full after you do factory reset.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] alpadolmeri:
Hi. I like very much this Rom, but yesterday I had a problem. All was working fine but battery drain was not good for me ( 3.2%/h). So, like suggested me by JimKatsanos I flashed latest pop kernel ( Pop_kernel-poplar-Q-r6-p.zip) .

After reboot system everything was working, but after some hours phone became very slow and so I rebooted the system again. My phone was stuck on "SONY" first screen and after 20/30 second reboot itself, in a continuos loop.

I was able to enter recovery TWRP 3.4.0. I flashed again the rom in dirty mode, but it was not successful.

So I reinstalled everything with clean mode, from scratch...

I have no idea what was wrong. May be I was working with Magisk and some modules, so I would to know something more.

1) Can I use Pop Kernel together with LKT Magisk module to save battery ?

2) Can I install Debloat Magisk module to uninstall some apps that for me are not necessary ? GCam, Google Foto, Recorder...

3) I would to install some Sony apps like Album, so I installed xmlpak Magisk module to install from PlayStore. Installation is fine but application is not working because it is "not compatible". Some suggestion to solve ? I prefer to install some Sony stock app because I found them lighter and easier to use for me. I don't like too many features but I prefer simple and clean usage. And more , I prefer to stay "offline" and not to use always google services, instead it seems that all new Roms are too much "Google integrated" from my point of view.

4) When I install some apps from PlayStore I receive message that this app was made for a previous Android version. It is ok ?

5) Do you suggest me an other Rom to install on my XZ1 ?

4) Before loose some hours more, can you suggest me the best way to backup \data before flash again the ROM if any problem ? I used file manager from TWRP to copy all \data to SD Card but operation failed and so I lost all my apps settings...

Thank you for your precious help !

[Sony Xperia XZ1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Riqitch:
Hi, after flashing this rom, I've seem to have lost the HDR10 capabilities when viewing videos in VLC/MX Player (YouTube still 'works', however). Has anyone else run into the same issue?

I've used one of those HDR checker apps from the Play Store, and it seems to identify the HDR10 feature just fine. Anyone know how to get it working again? I really miss this feature. Thanks.

Great rom by the way.
