Have some problem after flash with wifi. I have a wifi repeater, my laptop can connect normal and also other phone but my phone cannot connect to my repeater. Trying connect wifi through laptop, work well but repeater not. So i dont know something wrong with my repeater or the rom ? And also cannot boot into recovery mode
[7.x.x][WEEKLIES] CarbonROM | cr-5.1 [z3]
- Thread starter Myself5
- Start date
like normal, restart phone then press volume down button ? No ?
Only the volume down button isn't enough. You must press the volume down and the power button at the same time.
Then you should boot into the recovery.
I tested it just to be sure with my z3.

Problem found:
It doesn't see certain 5GHz channels, like 100, 104. But it sees 153.
Could this be caused by baseband? Can I flash baseband only?
Another problem found: Connecting/Disconnecting PPTP VPN will cause the phone random reboot. It randomly works though.
@yarden
Why do you use PPTP VPN?
I just asking because PPTP is very old and the encryption is very weak.
So I am using OpenVPN with the OpenVPN app. I don't have any problems with this protocol for my VPN.
Regarding the 5 GHz channels:
It's normal that some channels are visible and others not. But if you can connect to 5 GHz network why do you care which channel your z3 use?
Or have you bad speed?

I agree, PPTP can be abandoned.
As for wifi 5GHz channels, an access point can use any legal channel, the phone should see it which ever channel it is. Not only see certain channels and ignore the others. Stock ROM sees all channels.
OK. Then I was wrong. Thx for correction
Unfortunately then I can't help you really with your wifi problem.
So just a guess from my side: Try to ask your question on the Google plus group of CarbonRom (because the developers aren't really active here in xda).

I am
I read all the recent reports but I've been busy with studies and Oreo so I wasn't able to try debugging (and I still am not, unfortunately).
To those with issues: please try to gain logs of crashes and issues (that includes the 5GHz thing, chance is that the system reports what channels it's checking). Also please keep on providing as much information as possible, as you all did well so far
I hope everyone understands that I prefer focusing on Oreo for now, considering it's REALLY close and some issues mentioned might have been fixed already.
Further notice to me: I should post some kind of acknowledgement bugreports
I have some issues
Press power button, choose Reboot -> Recovery and I cannot reboot into recovery mode.
I cannot change avatar in user profile.

Well I can change my user profile picture (my system gives me possibility to choose a picture of the gallery for example).
You must go to the user profile site, choose your user (a new box must be open) and in this box if you tipping on the user icon you should get a box for the change.
I don't know why I cannot change the avatar. I went to the user profile site, chose my user and continue chose a photo, press OK and the photo was still unchanged
Sorry my English bad!
@GinNig
OK tried it over the user profile on my Z3. And yes it isn't working by me, too.
Sry for the wrong information but I thought the obvious way would work.
But if I add the picture in the contacts app the change works. Now I have the picture as my avatar which i use in the contacts app.
Hopefully this helps you.

Are you dropping Z3 from Oreo?

Wait what? Do I understand it right that he should stop working on Oreo on the Z3?
I'll blame it on a unfortunate wording and assume that he wanted to say "Will there be Oreo releases for the Z3".
Assuming thats the question, the answer is, as previously given here, a YES.
