Hi, have others the same problem?
I use a Z3 for testing 7.x I flashed latest CarbonRom and the screen shows graphic errors sometimes like "snow overlay"- once again less.
I have to consider something else.
It looks like a graphics problem.
Any ideas?

The second video is a known issue... Which had been fixed some month ago :s
Is your panel the original one or do you replace it?
Please send me a full dmesg (check that dmesg start at [0.000], it need to be complete to identify your panel).

Full DMESG=reboot & grab a DMESG directly after that.
Hardware info is printed to the DMESG only once, which is directly after booting the phone, and the DMESG storage is limited and gets overridden constantly, which is why you need to reboot first.

The 0.00 is the time relative to the boottime, which is at the very start of each line.

I've installed the ROM succesfully, but now I'm not able to access the recovery.
Tried everything, including flashing a new recovery:
1) Power+Volume Down -> Volume Down gives normal reboot
2) Power ->Purple Light -> Volume Up -> Yellow Light gives reset
I really donìt know what to do.

It's likely that you need to reflash the recovery to your FOTAKernel partition.

Follow this threads OP "How to Install -> Via fastboot":

Good news. I just fixed the sound and it will be fixed on the upcoming weeklies.
The fix was very stupid, but took me a while to find.

During our CAF merges, the Audio hal got moved from hardware/qcom/audio to hardware/qcom/audio/default. However, the Sony devices on AOSP have a very own way to handle the qcom HAL things, which includes hardcoding the path to the audio hal in the device/sony/common/Android.mk.

I adjusted the Paths now, audio is fixed.
https://github.com/CarbonROM/androi...mmit/15a95354fc5edafcdfc9d8e403889095afb09707

As you see, I also added the location oss hal, which fixed GPS. So both, audio and GPS will be fixed on the next Weeklies.
I also discovered that the Led overlays were not fully added, so you will be able to adjust all LED colors (both battery and Notifications) on the upcoming Weeklies too :)

Regards,
