[Q] Z1C AOSP 5.0 Build - Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since a lot of xperia devices have custom builds of Android 5.0 i was wondering why there is nothing like that for z1c. Is it because its just not possible at the Moment or because no one started developing until now?

Camera isn't working, bluetooth crash every time, wifi and data not working either, light sensor works but not calibrated, calls and text messages not possible because SIM isn't recognized, etc.
Lollipop runs very well, waiting for a beta release. Thank you for your work.

I know that all of those issues exist as of now, I'll do my best to atleast get the basic functions like phone calls working so that it's somewhat useable atleast. After that I'll fix WiFi.

Icecoldsandwich 8.2 tether and gps

I don't expect a fix but just found on the last few rom versions released that although the hotspot will work, if the mobile data connection is lost the phone will reboot . when on the train I noticed it happened in the same places on the route. I replicated the problem by manually turning data off.
The gps seems to work great, but only for about 1 - 5 minutes before loosing signal and not finding it again unless I turn it off and on again.
It's such a shame as I love the rom and way ics works over hc.
I had to post here due to under 10 posts so far...
Great work and kudos to all the developers producing ROMS

Just flash new 8.3, and if your phone randomly freezes use BFS kernel instead.

I haven't flashed 8.3 yet. For 8.2, there is a known workaround for GPS fix. Assuming you are using Naviagation, once you get a GPS fix, turn the GPS off manually while you are still in that app. Now, turn it on again. GPS fix should stay on just fine.

Same GPS problem loosing lock after approx 5 min with Ice Cold Sandwich 8.4 using Google navigator. Turning gps off/on does not fix but having a background process like Trapster keeps the gps lock active.
Try "Wireless Tether for Root Users" from google play store, wifi tethering should work with this app

Sense 5 Rom Comments

I've got a low post count but wanted to weigh-in on the current version of the Sense 5 rom.
I'm using T-Mobile, so not sure if my issues are related to my carrier or not...
1) Bluetooth isn't working. Turning it on does not result in anything...it goes fro turning on to off. Assuming it's the HTC One S ril that the rom is based on casuing this problem.
2) HTC Messages (the stock messenger) will not let me click a link in the message. If someone send me a text with an external link, and I go to click it, it causes Messages to force quit. I can use 3rd part apps and it works fine. Just an FYI...
3) HTC Locations doesn't work but I believe that is a Sense 4/ Sense 5 issue.
Everything else seems to be working. I am using this as my daily rom and haven't had any troubles (besides the ones mentioned above).
Thank you to everyone working on this!

when I used it the dailer would freeze and fc and data wouldnt stay on 4g or h
More insights:
Camera works but the facial recognition seems to be wonkey. I've turned it off so as not to see it jumping around like crazy.
Video...not sure if this is working. I do know that it comes on and the camera crashes and I have to restart.
FM radio...not a deal-breaker, but if I stick a pair of headphones in - the tuner never lets go and stations can't be tuned in.
GPS...saw that was one of the 'not working' apps. I don't really use it for navigation...as long as you've got wifi it seems to be able to locate but driving with it is impossible as it doesn't seem to know where you or or lock your position in.
I've been using this since JMZ updated the last version (so 2 weeks?). Haven't had a problem. And none of these, for me, make this rom unusable...it would just be nice to have a fully working one with Sense 5.
I will work on it some more when I get my oc back as my desktop is old and slow.

Problem with O-Click & 32GB Oppo N1

Hi, I have a problem with O-Click and Cyanogenmod. I have the 32GB Oppo N1 and while the O-Click works fine with ColorOS I haven't managed to make it work successfully with Cyanogenmod. I have upgraded the O-Click firmware via ColorOS.
Has anyone else encountered this problem?

If I remember correctly, it should be able to work the same way. Ensure Bluetooth is on, go into the O-Click settings, then search. After you do that, just click the O-Click one time so it starts searching for the phone. It should be able to pair.
I did run into a problem once where I had to go to the Bluetooth settings and forget the O-Click because it wouldn't connect. It was paired, but it never actually connected. Once I did that, I just paired them again and it worked. You could give that a shot if it shows as paired in the Bluetooth settings. Just delete it out of there and try again.
I've deleted it from bluetooth settings but it didn't help.
Also after I tried connecting to it via Buttons>O-Click settings I can't connect to it from Bluetooth menu either. Only if I disable and enable Bluetooth again I'm able to pair via Bluetooth menu only. But to get it to work I have to connect to it via button settings.
Does anyone know of a way to hard reset the O-Click device; When I opened it for the first time I remember it was blinking a green light. Is there anyway to put the device to that mode again? I tried to long press the button but nothing happens.

There is an open Bug-Report about it: https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CMN-1
No one working on it as of now (at least no one has assigned to the task).
It seems like the O-Click connectivity issue only occurs with regular users. Every review site that talks about the CM edition of the N1 doesn't bring up any connectivity issue. in fact in review videos they show that it's working... What are they doing differently that everyone else seems to be failing at.. :S

A user is A user...
No difference...
((developer options and rooting is different.))
But what they're having is the earlier version of the CM edition before the "update" that "broke" the O-Click functionality...
Silence in the woods...
And still no reaction from CM about this issue. Looks like we got screwed. The N1 is not tight to CM at all. There is not even a Forum for it on their Pages and the N1 is not in the List of Supported (or unsupported) Devices.
Guess, I'll flash the Color-OS, install Apex or Nova and wait for a fully working Omni Release.
Goodbye CM...

I tried running ColorOS and sure O-Clicked kinda worked. I found the battery life to be pretty bad and the phone ended up using more RAM than compared to CM10.2 :S
When O-Click was connected to the phone in ColorOS, it worked like it should. It's when it gets disconnected when you try to reconnect it. I was forced to use both the device and the phone to reconnect which kind of defeats the purpose of the "locate" phone feature. I'd get the usual red blink when it's disconnected. lol
Maybe OmniROM will be better when it's complete. Or hopefully the CyanogenMod team still cares about their first official CM backed phone. lol.

started working on it again just yesterday
Hope to have som app to test by end of the week
New announcement from CM team is pretty discouraging.
http://www.cyanogenmod.org/blog/a-case-study
So what this basically means is that N1, the first Cyanogenmod phone ever is actually not for "regular" CM users.
A user selecting any phone supported by CM team (i.e. Samsung Galaxy S3) will always be updated with the latest versions while N1 users will be on the waiting list. Too bad as I bought the N1 to support the team but if I want the updates rolling in I have to go with Omnirom.
Well i guess this is what they call "The end of an era!"
All People Update CM. there is the cm-11-20140724-NIGHTLY
First update to the latest nightly in CM page, after that you can update via OTA in your phone, there is Daily updates!!
O-Click, Works, meaby a second lag (while focusing?)
O-Touch Works, not as the touchpad of your lap but works, And for some reason changing the VM to ART works better for me.
3G works
Battery last very good, and its suposed to las more in stand-by if you use ART instead of Dalvik
ART works well by the way.

Z1C WiFi Issues? Speed/Stability

Hi all,
Not been around for a long time so its great to be back
Recently got the Z1C on Contact, frankly its the biggest regret I've had with a mobile device.
Is anyone else having WiFi speeds slower than dial up?
My download speed is < 250 KB's
Any1 else had this? If so does any1 know a fix?
Thanks
I don't have that, neither on 2,4GHz nor on 5GHz. You could try the unofficial DooMLord kernel, it mentions "custom built wifi wlan modules", dunno if that helps.

I'm not currently looking to Root/Unlock/Flash anything.
I'd just like my Stock Z1C to actually work with WiFi.
Its not exactly difficult, its seriously annoying me now, why is it so slow?
.. sorry just saw my solution doesn't help you and I don't know how to delete a reply...
but anyway, have you tried to close all apps on your phone?

my wifi works great too .. what rom do you use? latest .757 ? download .761 or 757 FTF and try to flash via flashtool .. No need to unlock bootloader or root, but you will lose some data if you don`t make any backup
you have a software problem there ..

I'll check it out when I get home but I never have Bluetooth on so I'd be surprised if it was that.
I have a gaming router which is extremely powerful and all other devices/phones work perfectly so I know that the Z1C is the bottleneck.
Any other ideas if its not the bluetooth?
Thanks
I've not had any issues with WiFi or BT, which is always on on my phone. I do use 5GHz for WiFi.

Have you tried restarting your router?
Does it go slow with every wifi? can you test it on different wifi and see if the problem is with one type of router?
Don't think I've seen anyone ekse with this problem, although flashing the .757 update messed up my bluetooth (then .761 fixed it).

Thanks for getting back to me
I have tested it on my work WiFi, I don't know whether it is coincedence, sod's law or normal but the WiFi on my Z1C at my work is absolutely rapid!!
I've just updated an app to test it, and it was at around 5MB's which is brilliant for me !
However, work WiFi is a 100MB's connection speed, where as at home I believe its around the 12MB's mark (geographic limitations in place here >.<).
From this I see only a couple of conclusions:
1 - Z1C and my home router just don't get along.
2 - As the WiFi speed is so much higher at work, so is the Z1C
or that theres no relation between the WiFi speed and my device but there is an issue with the Z1C WiFi itself?
I'm presuming its the first?
Thanks again!

Hi there,
I'm still on totally stock ROM.
I've done some testing and I believe it is on every router/internet but is very inconsistent. Sometimes its very speedy, others it will drop to almost unusable speeds.
I think I'ma just get rid of this terrible device, very disappointed in Sony. Here are some of my issues:
Phantom Touches
Unresponsive Touch Screen
Constant Crashes
Phone CONSTANTLY answers in Loudspeaker
Screen will not wake up
WiFi Speeds Totally Unusable

Just update to 14.4.A.0.108. It's also stock, official. You do not loose data while updating and it takes merely 10 minutes of "sitting back and relaxing"
As for wifi issue, did you try disabling wifi optimization fetaure found in advanced settings?

Have to be honest,
I got that fedup with all the issues on the phone, I sold it and bought an iPhone.
(Waits to be shot).
However I must say, iPhones feel very nice nowadays, nice and snappy etc.
But yeah, I'll still be hanging around these forums helping people out etc,

Hey that's a new phone just so you know because this is not acceptable.
Not sure about reclaims in your country but it should be valid in most?
Mine did about the same as my PC/PS4 = 60-95MBps, that is until yesterday
Both bluetooth and wifi are stone cold dead so I though I should reflash my ROM(Aur) and rushed it when I realized whilst doing the same 'ol start guide for the hundreds time I forgot to flash recovery :victory::fingers-crossed:

No Call Audio

Hello, im on cm 12.1 and recently i have no call audio, calling works fine on facebook and the like, but not when im calling someone from my contacts , ive tried factory reset, flashing different rom , back to stock and nothing works ,can someone help me???

Need more info....download samsung phone info and post a screenshot of the firmware tab. If your bootlader and baseband dont match, theres your problem. If they do, try reflashing stock (twice) then doing a tactory reset from the stock recovery right after. If after that the issue is still present....probably something else.....mabey hardware related. Good luckl
Do you use bluetooth? I had a very similar problem and figured out that the only time I had call audio was when I was using a bluetooth headset or the bluetooth in my car. I don't know what sets it off but I've done some searching on this problem and it appears to be common among GSM GS4 owners, and even doing stuff like a complete reset doesn't fix it.
The one fix that I did find, that helped some people, was to go into Google Now and disable "Okay Google" detection from any screen. Several people found that that worked. But I didn't have that feature enabled anyway so it didn't apply.
I don't know if the same problem occurs with CDMA GS4s; my wife has a Sprint GS4 and doesn't have the problem but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I think it was just AT&T and T-Mobile GS4 owners who reported this.

I don't have Bluetooth, I've tried it with a wired headset and even that didn't work, but what's so puzzling about this is that my calling works fine with Facebook messenger calling feature, hangouts and things like that

Edit:
Nevermind. It worked twice then I tried calling a different phone and it broke again. I will keep searching and update.
Original:
I have had this issue intermittently for the past year. It was fixed for about 6 months then two weeks ago started occurring again. Today I flashed a new Rom (PacMan) and the M919UVUFOK3_M919TMBFOK3_TMB firmware. That did not fix it. I was connecting to a 5Ghz WiFi so on a whim I forgot that network and made a call without WiFi enabled. Call worked!
So I connected to my 2.4Ghz WiFi and it is working again. I would try turning off WiFi and see if your calls go through if so it could be 5Ghz or the router...maybe a forget network / reconnect to network will fix it consistently.
Hope this helps you and if anything new comes up I will let you know.
So an update. I finally just gave up on it. My wife had an old phone I remembered (from 2 - 3 years ago) that was ran over and the digitizer broke. I just took her guts and put it in my phone and now it magically works. Hopefully it stays that way.
Should have done this years ago as my phone would no longer charge with the USB Cable nor was my SD Card accessible. Now it is all functioning right again.

So after flashing stock NB4 twice.....and factory resetting after from stock recovery, your still not getting call audio?.....doesnt make sense....try again and make sure the bootloader and baseband match.....and dont reboot into download from the OS.
For anyone having issues with no call audio through cell service but for some reason it works through data calls through whats app or facebook messenger, etc ,i have been having the same problem for awhile now. I believe i have traced it to be a hardware issue with the middle frame, when looking at the phone with the battery cover open on the top right over by where there are two markings R1 and L1. There is a module there labeled J-AT TMGA 7-3. When i was having issues i noticed that if i put slight pressure on that module my audio would fade back in on the call but if i put too much pressure it goes away again. If it is a hardware connectivity issue it would explain why slunked was able to get his phone working again by changing the guts in the unit. Im currently waiting for a middle frame and a blue cable for the antenna to confirm if this is indeed the issue.
