Hello RN10 Pro fellows

After alot of testing and using almost all available roms out there and tried all included features

I finally settled on one rom for a long time and it is the best in my opinion based on my needs and likes

I use this Compination and the result is very satisfying :

SparkOS 13.8 Official Vanilla + BitGapps Core + Zelo Kernel latest (CreamPeiCow Ksu)

Clean install and using zeloDev monolith optemize after installing and restoring all my apps and data

the customizations in this rom is plenty (the most cusomizable) and the UI is the most pretty among all

included Wallpapers are glamour

Boot animation is really cool

battery backup is really decent

performance is good (Take note that i aint a gamer and i am talking about day to day multitasking)

i use only 60hz refresh rate and no AOD

The next best rom for me is alphadroid

I bought Flip 5 SM-f7310 at auction. Is there any chance to get firmware version with Google Acc and Services, eSIM function and my local language (Czech) and without asian "bloatware"? What will I need for this?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] yulexun:
If you want to have the full google services, you can flash the firmware with csc TGY or BRI, which is for Taiwan and Hong Kong. You can download it on samfw.com and flash it with odin3. The Chinese firmware does come with Google play services but no Google play store. If you sideload the Google play store apk it will also works. For the esim compatibility, at least to my knowledge the f7310 does not have the esim hardware so there is no esim function.

I don't know if ya'll noticed.

But the hard SPL for the blackstone had been released.

BANG + 20 roms released aswell.

Why isn't this happening for the Xperia?

We only have 2 good ROM builders....

I'm downloading the Xperia Citchen of Itje,

and going to try to get my old Rom coocking skills back.

I would love the see many roms for the Xperia.

Cmon, who wouldn't ???

Could some of the Rom coockers make a tutorial for the public.

So more ppl get involved into Rom coocking!!!!

Thx.

I agree with you, the xperia has really very few support from cookers here.

i noticed that weeks ago, there are only one or two rooms released for x1 thought the hard spl was released long time ago.

I hope we will see more cookers on x1 section soon.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PeteyB:
I am also an owner of a SE X1 and I am trying to learn to cook my own Rom.

I have read on the forum as also the Wiki of XDA for 3 weeks and I read so many treats about:

• flashing my X1.

• creating my own packages.

• cooking different kind of roms with several kind of packages.

• and now im trying to build my own ROM with my own splash screen and

with a lighter version of WM6.1.

I'm learning quite fast. But sad enough there itn´t a Master tutorial for doing al this. After all this i want to build my own Panel. I don't know if

that can be customised. but I give it a try. :D:D

I wanna thank you all for all the online Tutorials.:cool:

I´m also going to try youtube for some Videos about "Cooking you own Rom"

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianl8888:
Courier advice to me says my X1 (supposedly "a") may be delivered today or tomorrow, so I was looking forward to playing. Too close to Xmas family-time for very much of that, however.

There is JL's basic 1.04 ROM. Full extraction of this nbh file allows you to add/subtract what you want. As I understand it, the XIP section is device-independent, so newer XIP's from any of the sub-forums are useful. OEM's are what SE has coded for this device and these are obviously limited. Additional CAB packages are there for the looking.

All up, an incentive to understand dsm, rgu, hv etc. This is not easy as there are only snippets of competing, conflicting and incomplete information available in the various sub-forum resources.

One thing I hope to post before Xmas is the accuracy of the 850Mhz UMTS availability in the X1a. If this proves accurate, extracting the radio ROM is my next step.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romeo0119:
I think the reason why there are not many cooked rom because not a lot of cooker own the experia. And the X1a looks like an endanger species in NA so that's prob the reason why.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmoo:
they key question is, will the x1a roms work on x1i cause of the one camera and fps recording diffrence.....

+1 for a tutorial on creating a simple, asumes only basic knowlage about the device rom cooking guide

there is alot of cool stuff in the wiki but it it does not have everything and it no organised properly. im still forced to read ridicouls amounts of irrelevent text in old threads

that would greatly help
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianl8888:
@xmoo

Two separate questions here:

1) x1a radio ROM's on X1i ? Obviously, that cannot yet be answered. Read my post, please - I will try to answer the question when the device finally arrives, maybe today or tomorrow, by extracting the radio and posting it here. Hassling will not make this happen any quicker, OK ?

2) crippled fps recording ? I'm afraid I couldn't care less. For me, a total irrelevancy
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianl8888:
@fatso485

Yes, of course, but I'm afraid that's not going to happen:

1) there are a variety of ways to deal with the rgu's, dsm's, initflashes, hv files etc. There seems to be no common agreement amongst the experienced cooks on how to do these necessary operations; certainly, there is no complete guide on this, just snippets of conflicting and incomplete advice ... and some of this is plain wrong

2) most cooks protect their ROM in any case, since donations are part of their income. There are some genuinely noble exceptions, such as M'Amine and cs_shekhar, but extracting their ROM's reveals very different methods of dealing with 1) above

Our best way forward is to examine those ROM's that we can extract fully and sort out a methodical path. At least, that's what I'm attempting.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedeva:
Telstra here in Aus have just released the X1a and I picked mine up on Friday and loving it.

I'm happy to help dump the ROM/Radio if someone is willing to help me as I haven't done it before.

Let me know.

Dev
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianl8888:
That's good !! Mine is now not due till tomorrow.

But before you go attempting a dump (and I'll help you through that), the most critical question we have is this:

1) since you bought it from Telstra, I'm assuming you have a Telstra SIM capable of 3G. (If not, end of story).

If this assumption is correct, the question becomes "which area or region are you in ?" This is most important for the next step, because if you are in a city-type area (Sydney, Melbourne etc), your 3G will automatically connect to the UMTS 2100Mhz band that Telstra uses in these areas.

Since the X1i also does this, it will tell us nothing new.

If you are in a regional area, your SIM will attempt to connect 3G on the UMTS 850Mhz band because the 2100Mhz band cannot penetrate the larger distances with its shorter wavelength. The Telstra 3G-enabled SIM card does this switch automatically. but if the hardware or firmware in the device cannot connect to the 850Mhz frequency, you will not be able to do 3G in a regional area.

So, which area are you in, please ? If regional, can you connect to 3G?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Loco5150:
We should buy Dutty a X1... I had Diamond, Touch Pro and now X1. X1 has the best potential, but is lagging with the best cooks being in other devices.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedeva:
Q1 = yes, nextG sim in and running

I'm in Melb, so its a metro area so by what u are saying it defaults to 2100. However, I went into band setting and selected UMTS 850/1900 and data connection works a treat. I jumped on DSLreports website for a speedtest, and got 1098kbps for the 1mb option. When I tried this with my sim in a touch HD (no 850) it has no services, so its the real deal & definately an 850UMTS.

So what next, as I'm all ears and ready to help the cause?

Dev
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianl8888:
I'm afraid it does default to 2100Mhz in the city areas - in those areas, this is the only UMTS frequency that Telstra broadcasts. The 850Mhz is used from the outlying areas.

The X1(a?) supposedly has a tri-band frequency UMTS range: 850, 1900, 2100 Mhz. These are grouped together with the quad-band GSM frequencies [like GSM(1900+850)+UMTS(1900+850)] in the Registry firmware ... eg. search your Registry for "2100"

The X1i also has an 850Mhz UMTS frequency choice in the phone settings, but it simply does not work. At this stage, we don't know for certain if this hardware or firmware.

When you manually choose 850Mhz in the city areas, the device still defaults to 2100Mhz (the only 3G frequency in the cities) because of the grouping.

However, if you wish to go ahead with a ROM dump:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=446691

fards post #8

You should finish with 4 separate *.raw files. You can then upload these to zshare or similar and post the download link here.

Caveats:

1) I know from experience that the pdocread command works out of Win2k and XP Pro but I've never tried it with Vista. Search for "ROM dump with Vista" in the forums if you are using Vista

2) the command "pdocread -l" (that's "el", not "1") copies a dll file to the device to allow the dump process to occur. Most devices just out of the box have a default security that prevents uncertified files being copied and this can stop the process in its tracks. To prevent this, use a Registry editor for the following edit

HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\0000101a = 1 (DWORD decimal)

To restore the warnings:

HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\0000101a = 0 (DWORD decimal)

I would suggest that you flash the HardSPL program 1st (see the sticky on the Xperia X1 front page), but this will void your warranty unless you can later return it to the initial state if you need to claim warranty, so that's up to you

OK, that's it. When (eventually), mine turns up I'm doing the same thing once I know it all first works out of the box.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllTheWay:
Don't even think about it. I forked over a lot of dough just so I could flash a Dutty ROM on my phone!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fards:
pdocread does work in vista, that's what I was using..

AllTheWay what is the procedure to dump the radio, I've seen you post that you know how to do it before but never say how.

Yes I know all the usual caveats security signed etc, but it's something I don't know and can't find anything on, except the obvious to grab it out of an official update, but that's too easy :D
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedeva:
Sweet, thanks for the help. Have to say I'm not super keen to HardSPL just yet, just have to read up to see if I can return it t the way it was if something does go wrong. However I'm keen to flash new roms and have a play. Was so much fun on my jasjam.

Dev
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Loco5150:
Hahaha... We should do it, but Im not rich even though I had so many of these new devices...

I got the Touch Pro from a friend for 400€, selling my Kaiser for 350€ was about that. The TP was overheating and when I took it in for repair the second time I decided to buy the Diamond for 300€ from eBay, which I sold for 330€ after they finally replaced my Pro with a new device (3rd time I took it in). Now I saw a good chance to grab X1 (Vodafone branded) from eBay for 400€ which I did. I will probably get +500€ for the Pro or the X1 so it will be no money lost for me at the end...

Now I have used all of these new devices for some time and because QWERTY is the thing for me, Diamond is no option.

Diamond is far most stable and has the best functionality because of the great cooks and developers that are on that section.

Touch Pro is good but has some bugs (uh the keyboard is goooood)

But X1 really seems to be the device with most potential and best build quality. The screen is incredible compared to the whole Touch series. (It seems to have much better response too besides the obvious size difference) The battery is superior compared to Touch Pro also... So Looks like I will sell the TP...

I would say if we would get few of these master chefs here to sort out bugs and tweak the OS further the X1 will be superior device on the market bar none. Maybe we really should piss off AllTheWay and raise money to get Dutty an X1... After all I only paid 400€ for it, (week old) but I dont know...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BadTasteUK:
It would be great if Dutty started cooking for the X1. I've been following his Diamond ROM for the last few months and his final release really is excellent... I don't have a single bug and he's added in lots of extra features.

Still a n00b on 3axl. today im getting my pixel 7 and wanted to erase lineageos on my 3axl and put stock for my son. i re-locked bootloader after installing factory image and i got an error about can't find boot or system something of that nature

I had to re-unlock bootloader and install factory image and that's where i'm stuck now. What do i need to do go back to stock with locked bootloader?

Thanks
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] alecxs:
It should work once every partition is back to stock, this will eliminate signature mismatch on locked bootloader.
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] 41rw4lk:
Personally, I would suggest not re-locking the bootloader. What's the advantage? Plus if anything goes wrong you have no way of fixing it because your bootloader is locked. If you must though, I would suggest leaving oem unlock toggled on so you might be able to re-unlock if needed and like @alecxs stated you want it all back to stock. So when you flash, make sure when it says flash slot a or b, you change it to --slot all
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] none24:
After some time I got Pixel Experience working (both android 12 and 13 versions)

I found that 12.1 wont work at all and that im only able to get 12 and 13 working.

Not sure if thats a limitation of the device or just some weird compatibility thing with android.

Issues Noticed:

VoLTE not working - my data actually turns off when I answer a call from someone or make a call -- tried flashable magisk fixes for these but they dont work for it.

5G isnt working

Cant turn off AOD - actually sucks because its draining my battery when I sleep or its just in my pocket

Camera rotation doesnt work for the front camera

LCD brightness doesnt work on outer display - I've used every magisk flashable fix I could find and even the ones in the phh settings -- but for some reason my outer display doesnt have its own brightness setting.

Everything else pretty much works fine. The biggest killers are the data related issues. some of the other issues could be ROM related, not sure, but also dont know which other ROM id want to try yet.

My SMS does work even after reboots, but sometimes things like verification texts dont come through. Just tried with whatsapp this morning and I cant get a text from them but something like instagram or discord I can. I think I found the method to get it enabled consistently? But i will try again when I flash a different rom.

Would be lovely if the Fold 2 had TWRP to make it easier to flash these. If someone were to build id definitely test it. (Fastboot method isnt difficult but twrp is just quicker)
