    Post LineageOS 14.1 Berni's alternative builds

    Thanks again for your continued efforts. Bluetooth avrcp still not functioning. Screen jump/glitch when switching apps. Status bar changes scaling is what it looks like. A few random restarts and battery empty moments (freezes, restarts, battery reads 10-15% less than before freeze. Still...

    Post LineageOS 14.1 Berni's alternative builds

    I only flashed your ROM last month, so I can't speak to before that, or the stock as I have been using official LOS for nearly the life of the phone. Last time I used Bluetooth audio was in 2017, and the track data was being sent correctly with (then) current lineage. Sorry I can't offer more...

    Post LineageOS 14.1 Berni's alternative builds

    Sorry i wasn't clear. Fwd/back, play/pause all work. Track metadata (artist, track album, track length) are not being transmitted. I'm not personally familiar with the methods, but I've read that it should be handled separately by that protocol (ver. 1.3 AVRCP until Oreo, then you can choose...

    Post LineageOS 14.1 Berni's alternative builds

    Been using the ROM as a daily driver for almost a month, loving it. I think Bluetooth AVRCP isn't working though. I've tried clean install, multiple apps, reset network, etc. Didn't work on final official LOS build either, so there's that. Currently on 2019.09.12. thanks for your work.

    Post [ROM][7.X.X]LineageOS [Suzuran]

    I have tried "clean flash", multiple different nightlies, tried to remove Google Now Launcher with various tools, re-flashed twrp, etc. Nothing changed. Figured out a workaround, though (so the other posters who have had this issue can try it out). Ended up downloading the "nano" opengapps...

    Post [ROM][7.X.X]LineageOS [Suzuran]

    Okay, this happens with clean flash, also. I have huge problems clean flashing, like taking 3-4 times before I get a functional system, dirty flashing works for updates with the most amount of system working. So, problem still exists with clean flash to several nightlies.

    Post [ROM][7.X.X]LineageOS [Suzuran]

    I am having constant problems with last several updates. I have "dirty flashed" via twrp. Currently on "lineage-14.1-20171201-nightly-suzuran-signed.zip" The problem is setting Trebuchet as default home app. It will not set, and seemingly randomly will ask which app I want as default. I have...

    Post How secure is out data on the z5c+sdcard now with fingerprint scanner?

    Fingerprint makes your device less secure. It is purely for convenience. By enabling the fingerprint reader, it is another possible vulnerability. It can easily be bypassed to pin/pattern/password which means your device is only as secure as that, while adding the vulnerability of the...

    Post [ROOT][Kernel][TWRP] repack of the stock kernel with dm-verity and SONY RIC off

    //SOLVED// I have z5 compact E5823 (got it a few days ago), and still having issues running the script. I loaded up UK custom firmware (E5823_Customized UK_1298-5497_32.2.A.0.305_R13C), running fine (no issues so far after two days). What I've done so far: Followed the procedure here...
