Dont worry guys, soon were getting A12 havoc :p
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] 4qx:
Everyone! I come bearing good news.

Xperia XZ1 Compact (lilac) will be getting Havoc-OS 5.x on 9th/10th July release.

You might be pleased to find out that, thanks to some enthusiasts 'unofficial' but highly appreciated efforts, LineageOS 19.1, Android 12 based, has been available for XZ1c since April.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Tim700_0:
Really stunning!!

Thanks so much for the information:)
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Arcline:
I highly appreciate their work. Ive been using this build since it was released and its very stable. I wish it had more frequent updates, i might start doing that myself when i have the time eventually.

[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] agus.h:
already flashed gapps version, yet three most used features are missing (screen on when flip case is opened, network speed on status bar, and adaptive battery)

Hi,

Can anyone confirm if Google Pay and Android Auto works fine with Gapps on 5.7?

I'm on LineageOS now (47.2.A.11.228), can I simply flash Havoc or should I upgrade to other stock firmware first? Any minimum TWRP version required? Or should I just perform a "Clean Flash"?

Clean Flash:

First Time Install / Clean Flash

1. Download the rom zip, firmware included not need flash again

2. Reboot to Recovery

3. Wipe Dalvik, Cache, System, Vendor, Data

4. Flash ROM

5. Format Data

6. Reboot to System

Which camera app has been used in the Havoc 4 roms originally? Is it possible to install it manually?

[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] sardighi:
Is this an official version?

Can I perform a dirty update?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] mishut:
Hello,

I can only confirm payment via Google Play. Verified today and works without any problems.

I do not use Android Auto.

In the past I also switched from LoS and used only clean flash and there was no problem.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Maflo:
Also take into account that A12 is less developed than A11; some customization features are missing. This will surely be corrected later.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] GT500s:
Flashed 5.7 and it is working very good but is there a way to remove bottom google search bar? I was looking for a way to get battery percentage next to the icon but couldn't find it.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Maflo:
1) Disable the google app and you shouldn't hear about it anymore or/and use a another launcher (like Nova Launcher)

2) Not yet implemented
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] GT500s:
Disabled google and rebooted phone but still it is showing bar.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] zpunout:
Another option is you might want to wait for the vanilla version of HavocOS to be released if you would rather not have Google.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] GT500s:
Yes. I'll just wait. ROM is great.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Maflo:
Use a another launcher (like Nova Launcher)

Live wallpapers in 5.7 have a green bar about 4mm thick on the right side. Doesn't do this with normal wallpapers
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] maarek7:
Got small issue:

Flashing completed, OS is loading, phone is asking for a SIM PIN and then "Factory data resetting / restarting" window pops up, and phone get's into loop at this point (Asking for PIN + "Factory data resetting / restarting").

Any ideas?

EDIT:

I wiped "Internal Storage" as well and now it launched properly;)

What camera do you recommend (there is none in the ROM)?

I've tried "xperiance/camera' but it's crashing constantly.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Maflo:
Yes, no natively installed camera app. I use Open Camera which was recommended to me on Telegram. Work perfectly. There is just a bug on the rom concerning the playback of HD videos (in 60fps if I say no nonsense)
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] GT500s:
I'm also using Open Camera but installed xperiance camera Magisk module that gives original Xperia camera. Think video quality is very good but photos are worse than Open Camera.

Releases · xperiance / camera · GitLab

This module brings back the Camera App to Xperia Devices

[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] maarek7:
Tried the "xperiance" but it's crashing in my case as soon as I switch to front camera or try to record anything.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] GT500s:
Now when trying to record video app crashes but taking pictures or switching to front camera works fine. When i was using Lineage 19.1 camera xperiance was working without any issues.

anything new in the 4.19 version available in the download section?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] mstrnemo:
I installed 4,19 yesterday had the following problems

- on startup i get a message that says the following

(there is a internal problem with the device,contact the manufacturer for more information?

- connectivity problems specifically sim card

- batterie drain

anyone here have similar problems?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] NeoSeven:
Hi Team!

Downloaded this rom and it works great. However I encounter one peculiar issue every time when booting the device. Before I can actually use it I always have to confirm this dialog, translated from German it reads:

When I hit OK, everything works fine. What do I do about it? What is this message even related to? How can I get rid of it?

Greetings!
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] NeoSeven:
I get the same error message, although I neither experience connectivity problems nor battery drain. On the latter I learned that I mistakenly thought that my battery was drainig, because in the morning, the battery was down to 64% despite charging up all night, but this was due to the battery settings. Once up to 100% it stopped charging and by the time I woke up I seem to have lost 46%, which is quite a lot. On the other hand today it runs for 4 hours straight and I've still got 94%, but mostly on ldle and not using the phone much. So everything normal it seems - except for this ominous message on startup. I wonder if anyone else gets this.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] tonsofquestions:
Anyone know if a Google-free version of 5.x is on the horizon? It's been a while, but still hasn't dropped.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] NeoSeven:
5.x means Android 12? I am not so sure, why people want this on the XZ1C as the tiles are very large - too large for this small screen in my opinion.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] tonsofquestions:
Correct, A12. I don't know if I want to stick with it, but I do want to try.

And some ROMs let you change the tile size.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] mstrnemo:
Oke so after reflashing it will work my cellular connection (the interal problem message stil shows up) however evrytime i restart i dont have cellular connection because it wont give me the screen to insert my simcard pincode ? neither can i do it in the settings or interly remove it?

it doesnt stop there though because i thought F this i go back to 4.16 and nothing ... it keeps going into a loop back into twrp ???

so i try another rom linageos this one will start up and everything works fine until i restart the device and it does not give me the abilty to insert my simcard pincode???

A completely diffrent rom does the same now wtf ?

why cant i go back to 4.16 which i was running before updating ? why does it go in a loop?

removing and putting back the simcard does nothing ?

This is what my device had before installing

havoc 4.16

magisk plus microg module

before updating i uninstalled magisk.

so i dont see how a simple update can cause this ? is it possible for a update to break your device like this ? how is it possible i get the same problem on a difrent rom ???

I haven't had the time yet but wanted to flash back stock and then from there flash a custom rom again see if that helps.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] NeoSeven:
This may sound crazy now, but I would try to put the sim card into an old phone - preferably an old style phone, like an old Nokia - and check if you can enter the sim code there normally. If so, boot the smartphone with your preferred ROM (I'm assuming Havoc), wait until it's completely booted up, swap the sim into your smartphone while the ancient phone is still on, and see if it's unlocked. If it is, you should have normal network reception, if not, you will be asked for the code again.

I only get this crazy idea because you say that two different freshly installed ROMs have the same behavior. Maybe it works. Let's see.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] norabitox:
Hello everyone

I also updated to 4.19 and have the same issue.

* 4.19 Update > Call X battery consumption?

* Restore 4.16 with TWRP > TWRP loop

* Format data with TWRP > Restart TWWRP

* Wipe system, cache and internal storage in TWRP

> Install 4.16,gapps > Start the system > Make a call 〇

* Restore the previous 4.16 backup with TWRP > Make a phone call 〇

* Restore only 4.19 data with TWRP > Make a call X

I'm using 4.16 now.

Sorry for my bad English.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] doeternietoe:
So I updated to 4.19, also got a message about some (unspecified) internal problem, and what's worse a bootloop. That is to say: some 5-7 seconds after the phone has booted up, it starts all over again (but from the havoc logo, not from the sony logo).

I use this as my secondary device, so it currently has no simcard in it. Also, I have magisk installed (via a patched boot.img). Flashing the original boot.img (without magisk) does not solve the problem however.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] WilcoSnel:
Is there any word on fixing android auto for our device on a custom rom? Both lineage and havoc builds haven't had a working android auto for about a year in multiple builds now. I know dev time is limited and I would love to help troubleshoot, but it seems this isn't really on the agenda at all??? If I can help in any way with this, please pm.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] sardighi:
A donation helps always.

Is it in your agenda?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] WilcoSnel:
I actually have donated. As I always do when I start using a rom as a daily driver (and it works properly) on any of my devices. I have asked about android auto on both roms several times in the last year, but never get a response.

Anyway, it was just a question. Not a demand. Please note the question marks and the offer to help out. If it came across as a demand, that was not my intent.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] mstrnemo:
did not work,
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] mstrnemo:
I finally got araund to installing the stock software and it works as normal now?

just installed twrp again and am downloading 4.16 as we speak.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] norabitox:
Yes 4.16 is working fine.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] doeternietoe:
So who is actually updating this ROM and are they actually looking in at bugs, or do they just regularly rebuild with the latest Android (security) fixes? I ask because it seems the topic starter has last posted something just under a year ago and the changelog hasn't been updated since version 4.8.

And to be clear: It's pretty awesome that people invest time into these custom roms and provide them for free to whomever wants to use them. So I ask this because I'd like to know, not because I think I'm entitled to any form of support (I'm well aware I have no _right_ to support).
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] FlashDude:
There seems to be an update from 7/30, idk what it does though, they're currently releasing the Android 12/Havoc 5 Rom, mainly over at the telegram channel. It's only the GApps version so far though.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] misterbirra:
Hi everyone, I'm planning the 4.16 --> 4.19 upgrade via OTA. But I'm seeing in the last posts some people having issues with it (bootloops). How is the situation?

I've already performed upgrades during previous versions and never had issues.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] norabitox:
I've tried the 4.19 OTA and clean install updates.

I have problems with both, so I changed to Flamefire's Lineage 18.1.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] T_Tank:
I really dislike telegram... It's like a Skype group conversation but out of control..
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] badsmoke:
I have the version 5.7 since the 16.7.2022 installed, it runs with me so far the very best.

unfortunately still missing some cool features that were there in the 4.* versions. e.g. ota update, network traffic.

with 4.16 I often had the problem that I no longer went my network, since only a reboot or a network reset had helped.

the only thing I noticed that does not work in the 5.7 is android auto.

I would like to participate in the development, is there somewhere instructions how to build the rom
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Maflo:
If you haven't already done so, I advise you to take a look at the Telegram group, the developer is quite active ;)

Hi,

I'm trying to go back from 5.7 to 4.16 but having twrp bootloop (wiped Internal Storage as well). Anyone was able to fix it somehow?

I've tried 4.16, 4.8, the same results.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] decsimon:
Have you try to wipe in "format data" and typing yes?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] maarek7:
Hi,

I've installed Lineage currently, but had to install clean OS first (don't know why).

I've also had to use the "Fix Contexts" in TWRP -> Advanced since I was not able to install any browser from Play Store.

While reproducing above with Havoc I'm still having TWRP bootloop (tried few TRWP versions already).
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] decsimon:
I'm a noob in this question....i resolved wiping system, data, cache, dalvik, then installing lineageos or havoc, gapps, then typing yes in format data and reboot.......

Dev Skip a12 havoc, next one a13
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] KytaPro:
U think that on a13 it will not drain the battery like that?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] zpunout:
I've heard that sometimes an error such as a failed driver (for example for NFC) could cause excess battery drain. If something like this happens, I heard that the system could be burdened due repeatedly encountering such an error and cause battery drain. So the issue might not necessarily be the Android 12 operating system per se. That's my understanding of what might be happening.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] KytaPro:
I understand that it would be better to switch to a10 HavocOS 3.11? I heard that it seems to be the most stable and there is also a stock camera.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Alekim91:
Thanks you.

There is a way to disable the led light notifications or light while battery phone charging?

Thanks to everyone...
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] zpunout:
I can't comment on stability because I haven't used the higher Android versions enough over a long period of time to notice any major issues.

I think two points to consider for selecting Android 10 Havoc are the Stock Sony Camera app and speedier performance of certain old version apps which work faster with the old legacy storage access framework.

If those two reasons aren't important, then I would use the latest builds for improved security and other new features imho.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Amococadiz:
Cannot boot any of those ROMs. Lineage 20 and others works fine. I'm on 47.2.A.11.228-hideunlock. Need help. Thank you.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] FlashDude:
If it hangs on boot, boot into recovery (TWRP), tap Wipe and wipe Data, Cache and Dalvik.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Amococadiz:
Thanks. I tried the usual stuff. Wipes and redownloading the Rom etc. different versions of it. Nothing...

To be more precise, the phone boots into the Sony logo screen, but after a few seconds reboots straight into recovery (TWRP 3.7.0_9-0).
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] FlashDude:
The wipes worked for me in that case, did you flash it with the file on the SD-card or via ADB-Sideload? I always install stuff via sideloading because I run into problems when installing from the SD-card and it's quicker and more convenient.

Also it can depend on wheter you install it on top of the stock ROM or wipe it first.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Amococadiz:
I tried the sideload method (never done before) and get only errors. Wiped everithing first. For the 5.7 version I get the "cannot read" error on my PC, all other versions flash with no error but when I reboot the phone I get "No OS installed" Error.

What is happening here?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] FlashDude:
5.7 is the cancelled Android 12 vesion, it's not supported any further. The last real one is 4.19 (A11). At this point I'd try flashing the stock ROM and flash 4.19 on top of it or just flash 4.19 after wiping everything.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Amococadiz:
I even tried the 3 version. Just to see the result. The same... I give up. Going back to LOS20 without working camera. sigh.

Hello, I'm stuck myself, on the TWRP startup screen. After trying Lineage os 20 for xz1 compact - too many bugs with 4G and internet connectivity, I wanted to go back to Havoc 4.6. Unfortunately, after doing a wipe of datas etc... Then reboot from TWRP, I'm stuck on this screen. Which version of Emma do you use? On my side, I can't find a working version (seems too old...)

I tried to reinstall TWRP on my device via adb, but it doens't work (usb drivers problem)... I don't know what to do...
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] decsimon:
hi, it happened to me too. try rebooting into recovery without the phone having the charging cable plugged in. wait at least a minute after rebooting to see if the recovery works. if not, you have to reinstall the recovery somehow. if you have the exact usb drivers, and in any case you are unable to install the recovery, try, if you have the possibility, to move the twrp.zip file to another place in the pc memory, which is not the same as where it is now and then try again with the command adb...
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Archibald De La Cruz:
I had to run Emma and reinstall custom rom... Thank you for your reply, I wilt try to install other LOS versionor havoc
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] decsimon:
