Unfortunately no, GPS not working.

With MicroG location can't be found at all.

With GApps (OpenGapp, NikGapps) location can be found only via Wi-Fi, but not via satellites.

----

I tested lot of custom ROMs for XZ and none of them have working GPS.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] navidmafi:
I can confirm that. it's a major issue for me at least.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Qattos:
Hi everyone, is this project still worked on?

Been keeping an eye on this forum for several years and hoping someone would get a fully functional ROM, but it seems this phone is a hard one to crack, really bummed that Xperia Z3 which I had before is supported by Lineage ROMs till now but Xperia XZ isn't.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] GN-z11:
This is most likely due to poor camera quality when using SODP's source code. Working using stock based source like this is great for camera quality but is hard to upstream to later versions of OS as it is based on old kernel and pretty janky vendor source. I tried rebuilding Lineage OS 15.1 from Sjill's source last time, but I guess lineage OS's latest commits borked the compatibilty with this old source.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Qattos:
So it's hopeless? which new phone models you think have the most custom ROMs support? I'm thinking of buying a new phone and would love to have it last for a few years.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] GN-z11:
I think so, better to just stick to stock ROM for this device. Or buy a device with good support from OEM which dont bork the camera quality when using their source code XD

Has anyone had an issue with the IMS not registering. I have the dual, running the latest build of this VoLTE is provisioned but IMS never registers and I have no idea how to even tell why. Is there a command to force it to register?

Hello 19.1. (sources: https://github.com/linelessos feel free to contribute.)

Maybe I should start a thread for this after some stability testing. (also see my comment on random reboots below)

View attachment 5620621

At least on 19.1, I have choices for usb:

View attachment 5620623

I can confirm that, but seems(!) to be stable on the updated 19.1 kernel sources

Does the above answer your question?

For me, due to health issues, I am not able to seriously maintain the kagura / tone device as I would like to. I simply lack the energy I used to have.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] star__dust:
Thanks for your effort. I can test your rom.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] erikcas:
I need to check on its stability for some hours, if positive, I will provide a DL link for testing.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] star__dust:
Alright.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] GN-z11:
I built one already and it's actually pretty stable, I'm in awe of how did you get lineage 19 to build on the device, but the problem about radio (ril) is the one that's keeping me off, I'm newbie so I can only do basic fixes. Seems like the hwbinder thing is connected according to the logcats.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] 2faraway2:
@erikcas : Get well soon !!! That's the most important thing ..

If you have time (and oc motivation) would you mind to implement the signature spoofing patch in the los 19 rom ? So we could install microG (and not the Google crap = Gapps) ..
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] erikcas:
I will check as soon as I can. I use kagura w/o sim as a sort of kitchen mediaplayer and home domotic controller, so I did not check ;)
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Qattos:
Thank you @erikcas for your effort, I hope you get well soon.

This is excellent news and I hope someone with more talent than myself would pick up where you left off in case you were unable to maintain this custom ROM.

I think everyone has this problem, since I constantly have reboots on LineageOS 18.1 and 19.1. Very unstable, had to go back to stock Oreo from Sony
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] franss62:
Hi @Sjll !

Thank you very much for your excellent work.

I installed a few weeks ago your build of LineageOs 19.1 on my Kagura,

Congratulations for your efforts, it's quite stable, all features work pretty well, and the battery seems to last at least as long as with Stock ROM, so I use it with my professional SIM card now

I just have a little question for you,

Are you gonna build LOS 20 for this phone ?

Best regards,

François

Alright so, long story short. I went to go jetskiing today, on the Potomac River, and well, I thought I had taken my phone out of my pocket before helping my friend take off the jetskis off the tralior into the water, I waded out and felt my pocket get really heavy, and just so happened my phone was in my pocket. I freaked out and popped out the battery. ( i think thats what saved it. ) but so i just left it in the car, so it had time to dry. Came back about 4 hours later, and went home and put it in a bag of rice, I turned it on though, spiting I wanted to know if it worked. Phone worked, but only out the back speaker and volume was muffed and really low. Touch screen worked perfect! but none of the hard keys worked. I was pretty upset so I put it back in rice and popped off the back speaker cover and prayed that it would work. Just a bit ago, popped on the back cover and turned it on. EVERYTHING WORKS! I was so shocked, at first it was being tempermental. But a few soft resets and BAM worked like a charm :)

my little rant about how my phone survived a little swim with the fishes.

mods, please move if its not in the right area. thanks :)

Swimming - Phone

Hey,

It is a great thing that you had just added the "Bubble Cab"®.

The only authorized and working application that saves your device from

drowning. (as it surrounds all of the small and electrical connections, soldering points, and internal parts, and completely squeezes all impact of water and moisture from your baby (the phone).When _any_ water or fluid contact happens or occurs !

Also as a further precaution the rice trick*© probably did not hurt !

--- All jokin' aside ! Still kinda laffin' .....

I was really happy to see your phone didn't drown ! (VERY Sincerely)

Your quick thinking to take it apart (the battery, and all) and allow it just to dry. Probably did the trick.

Anyway was very happy to see your AOK !

And another little known fact the Bubble Cab® will in fact ! Resuscitate a drowned phone !

And can be purchased via tru Mr. Mbudden, his Program is currently out of Beta !

And Full Product BubbleCab 1.01 ® is a steal ! at $16.95 !

Thanks

david !
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] davidcruse:
Bubble Cab®

Hey !

Also, let me know when the Beta is finished on :

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pyraxiate:
I had an 8525 which fell in the Atlantic and pretty much the exact same story. Pop battery out and rice it :D I learned a valuable lesson. Dont drink and fish in Ocean City...... lol

Patomic huh? I bet we have seen each other out on the water at some point ( although most of my boating now occurs on the Magothy and out near the Bay bridge these days lol )

Glad to hear your phone is well!!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] khaytsus:
Um... Fell in the ocean and you just dried it, you didn't flush it out? Mmmmm, corrosion. How long ago was this?

To the OP (and everyone), I would suggest you not use the phone unless it's been drying with rice (or, get dessicant) for several DAYS. I think you got lucky it still worked after such a short drying period.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] telegraph0000:
I think the phone would have recovered faster had you dropped it in the toilet right after Kumar visited White Castle. Potomac river water can make you lose your hearing! That water is nasty!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pyraxiate:
This was well over 4 months ago. As far as I can tell it is still working as it should ( I havent used it in a while but I just juiced it up, put my sim in it , powered it on, and tested with a call )

I probably should take it apart again and clean it, but im not too worried about it.

I do have 2 tilts now afterall...... the 8525 was just around as my backup until i got my second one lol

I agree......... dont eat any fish you catch........ they are more than likely contaminated :P

Wow I didnt realize so many people from the east coast are here :D

Best rom doesn't exist. [2]

The best rom is the one you decide to be the best.

Personally, I really prefer original and untouched stock rom and this is the best rom for me.
[Redmi Note 9 Questions & Answers] alonsoj636MW:
Same for me , Stock MIUI is the best
[Redmi Note 9 Questions & Answers] alonsoj636MW:
i bought the Redmi Note 10 ... i can't , sorry.
[Redmi Note 9 Questions & Answers] Hans de Groot:
But which custom rom option would be the most table with all the phones features working?

I mean I was reading about the pixel experience based on android 10 and got all exicted reading about the it and than boom some one mentioned that you cannot use your dual sim cards. Duh. It's a phone I bought it primarily for dual sim and dedicated sdcard. If that is not working why bother at all? Seemed to me like a rather important detail.

I prefer to stay stock rom if posssible since that should have all the sensors and hardware working. But the this is my first Mi and I find the MIUI bit of a challange (and ugly) . I cannot even use the mi remote if I refuse to login to my mi account. So no mi remote. And it feels a bit slower than my umidigo A5 pro from 2019 that has a MT6763 core 4 gb ram and 32gb running vanilla android 9 os.

That older phone just feels way faster than this one with better specs. I suspect it's because of miui. But it could be android 10 is just slower.

Anyway as time passes by I seem to beable to fix all the important issues. The most recent one was miui killing everything without any solution. So all my little gadgets that make miui usable for me stopped working with in hours.

I hope thats fixed too.

But if not it would be nice to know if there is a good stable as vanilla as possible rom out there that actually works or which one gets closest to this utopia?

[Xiaomi Mi CC9 / Mi 9 Lite Questions & Answers] crashpoum99:
Hello,

I own this device for more than a year now and suddenly my battery doesn't last nearly as much as it used to. This wasn't the case a month ago.

It just started happening out of nowhere. Nowadays I am getting 2 hours of SOT (3 if I am really lucky).

The battery stats give the highest % consumption to android system.

I tried searching the web for a solution but to no avail. Many recommend a factory reset to fix but I can't get myself to do that because I use this phone 99% for work.

Can you guys help me even slightly improve the battery life of my phone?

Thanks in advance.
[Xiaomi Mi CC9 / Mi 9 Lite Questions & Answers] Tomek0000:
Hi , something eat your battery.

Better Battery Stats (from xda) let you find what can be guilty.

You can delete cache and data only for this application.

If this is autostarted app, you can use sd maid for block autostart possibility.

If the guilty is a system part, factory reset or installing android again can be the only option.

[Sony Smartwatch 2] mendesjoao98:
Hi guys

So, I've recently picked up my 8 year old Sony SmartWatch 2 and some wristbands for it since mine constantly self destroyed themselves, being the reason i stopped using the watch in 2017 or so.

So, I use a Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) with android 10 and one ui 2.0 and I installed the Smart connect version 5.7.35.0001 as recommended in one of the posts here I believe and I've sideloaded the Smartwatch 2 host app both found on sony's website (https://www.sony.com/electronics/su...es-xperia-smart-devices/sw2/articles/00241423) and one found on the same post in XDA that i saw for the companion app. The thing is, I can't get the text companion app (the official one) to show up on the watch and on the host app after being sideloaded, neither the gmail, the call manager and anything at all.

I've tried anything from resetting the watch a bunch of times to installing older versions of the host and smart connect app, but i still can't get it to work.

Can anyone help me please? I really like this watch
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] Crimor:
Thank you for this ROM, very good and stable Great job, I ran the installation on my T335 as described. I encountered a bug during calls (both incoming and outgoing) the device run, I do not hear the voice, only in HANDSFREE mode. Same problem for all calls also whatsapp.

The internal speaker of the phone does not work and even if I connect with bluethhot of the headphones I do not hear the voice but only the system sounds.

Ok, Camera and zoom.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] matteo0026:
Thanks for the feedback. I removed the dot about camera issues for millet. About sound, I need a logcat and you should be good to explain me when you did what in the logcat. I advice you to enable seconds in the status bar, so you can precisely point to that second of events. All these issues should be fixable with some edits in the mixer paths, but before I touch something, I need a logcat with precise indications.

New build of LOS17.1 with 2021-05 security patches is online!

Changelog:

- May 2021 security patches

- Little fix to power profile

- Drop Adreno RenderScript blobs (https://github.com/TheMuppets/propr...mmit/b360ae6f58414911861ba2d736a56744b9622df5)

- Some more kernel patches included

- Reduced kernel size by removing some useless stuff - now Lineage recovery can be built without having size issues

I even uploaded 17.1 lineage recovery, since you can use fastbootd there too. It could be useful to flash .img recovery files if you choose to install it. It's just a little advice. Do what you want then.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] Jose_CM:
matteo0026 I've been trying to download from androidfilehost the file lineage-17.1-20210513-UNOFFICIAL-matissewifi.zip since yesterday but it's impossible, OOPS! no mirrors found.

Is there another download alternative?

Regards, and thanks for your work.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] matteo0026:
No download alternatives, but I contacted Androidfilehost support to ask why of this problem, since I have been able to reproduce the issue in the download page. And this issue is present in all variants in LOS 17.1, not just matissewifi. At least, LOS 16 has at least 1 mirror per build. Probably the infrastructure is really slow to make copies to the various servers.

Thanks and keep up the great work matteo.

I was right, it was a problem of androidfilehost. Now the builds are downloadable with all the mirrors.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] hemligt:
thank you alot for the LOS 17.1. I updated my T335 with TWRP to latest and flashed LOS17.1 and pico gapps, only wiping cache,davlik. It works really well. Even camera takes fotos. Here no freese as in LOS16. LOS17 is a bit less snappy compared to LOS16, but camera is important for me. Thank you Mateo, very nice that you maintain the tab 4.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] Sayueri:
I installed 17.1 on my SM-T530NU. No issues so far. 17.1 feels more responsive on the tablet than 16.

Thanks for the great rom Matteo.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] jim-cz:
I installed 17.1 on my SM-T531. It works perfectly. With this new firmware, my tablet got a new life. Everything is fine, but the GPS doesn't work with this ROM. It worked with the factory firmware, but I don't want to roll back to it. Is there a way to fix GPS?

Thank you for the great ROM, Mateo
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] matteo0026:
It works, but it takes a lot of time to do a 3d fix. Tested. And you have to test the gps outdoor. Probably it can be improved, but I don't know how.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] jim-cz:
Thanks for your attention to my problem, Matteo. I tested it for several hours outdoors today. Unfortunately, the GPS does not work at all. I watched it in the GPS test app, the tablet can't find any satellite. It worked properly earlier with the factory 5.02 ROM. I'm still looking for a way to fix it in your great firmware.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] matteo0026:
Ok. I'll test it better in 17.1 too. In 16, I'm 100% sure that it works.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] matteo0026:
@jim-cz try this file (that you have to extract from the zip file). Put it in /system/etc.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] Sayueri:
By gps, are you referring to maps, Waze and weather apps that need your location? I've tested both on my sm-t530nu and they work fine.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] matteo0026:
I tested the GPS through the app GPS test. I link it here too. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chartcross.gpstest
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] Sayueri:
I tested gps with this app both indoors and outdoors. It got my location. Everything seem to be working except for compass.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] jim-cz:
Thank you, Matteo. I've tried this config, but it didn't help me. Then, I flashed factory firmware again and GPS began to work properly. On my table near the window, the tablet sees 30-32 satellites. I copied all the system directory from the factory ROM and put it to SD card. After it I installed your ROM and copied the factory gps.conf to the /system/etc.

The GPS doesn't work again. All permissions are granted and location service is on. Also, I installed Lineage OS 16.0 and the GPS does not work there in the same way.

During those tests I noticed one interesting point. In factory ROM there is a location icon flashing in the status bar, when GPS test app is running. Otherwise, in your ROMs I've never seen this icon.

My tablet is SM-T531.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] matteo0026:
As you can see from my images, 3d fix is done, but with a really bad accuracy. Now that I went indoor and let working to try to improve the accuracy, it went down to 10 m. But in LOS16, with my patch, it works way better. We are around 5-8 m and the fix is done way faster. The icon you told is present on custom ROMs too, but you must turn on the GPS, otherwise you can't see it, obviously!
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] jim-cz:
Maybe I'm doing something wrong. I can't find the GPS itself in Settings. There is a Location page. Location is On.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] matteo0026:
Yes, location menu is right and it needs to be on. Then, if it doesn't work, I don't know why it doesn't. Try to analyze better what happens in gps test app and report, please
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] The Bic Pen:
Great ROM! Very stable so far and I'm glad I could get some more life out of my tablet.

I see that there's a known issue with the magnetic cover sensor being too sensitive. I'm actually seeing the opposite problem - it's not triggering at all for me. Is there anything I can do to debug that? I'm on the sm-t330nu.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Original Android Development] matteo0026:
You miserunderstood, read another time what I told. That's what you meant. Actually, I didn't find a fix to get it working as in stock ROM
