-Bluetooth
-IMEI shows up, still have to test with SIM

Not working:
-Camera

Thanks to Sony for publishing the binaries so quickly, even while they're not going to give Z1 series an official update

Okay, so you can confirm that the radio/modem does not work? You can make calls or anything.

Fixes for both modem and in call audio here: https://github.com/tg-togari-marshmallow

Feel free to merge into this build.

Key changes are:

Add modem firmware (/system/etc/firmware/modem.*)
Replace libaudcal.so (for some reason the one in the qcom vendor dir posted by sony doesn't work)

Should work for other rhine/rhine-like devices, also

Thanks! I'll merge and test modem tomorrow, and add Sony's new vendor blob which should fix libperipheral_client.

Great stuff! That was quick!
Didn't know sony even released binaries for android M by now

Ev3rtH · Oct 14, 2015

I´ve added a download link to Alpha 2, modem *should* work now.

Where did you guys get the modem files from ?
I'm trying to build it for the Z3Compact. Should I extract them from the current 5.1.1 build ?

Yep, the best way is extracting them from the current firmware; these blobs work (at least on the Rhine devices, but it should be the same for Z2/Z3). There are some GitHub repo's that have the blobs but I spoke to jerpelea and these are illegal.

Thanks, I'll check into that when I get back from college

Sounds exactly like our issue though.

You got that part wrong, my friend.
They are illegal to share for Alin, that is Sony.
Let me quote "What community does is on a gray line".
Its fine for someone in the community to share them, but not for Alin/Sony.
