I try several rom for xz1 compact, but lineageos 17.1 (last update of may) is the best stable rom! I'm searching camera apk that have all in one ( slow motion, photosphere, selfie with powerfull flash screen).

I flashed the zip file with magisk and the camera apk disappeared from my device! so i deactivated and removed the module from magisk and restart, but now i have it again but it doesn't work anymore! she says: unknown error. Did I make a mess?
Try installing the module again

Yes, I missspelled it: I mean the 18.1 from 15.6.
Sadly, I'm not quickly able to reproduce - in German we say "Vorführeffekt". I keep it trying to reproduce!
Maybe we also catch the "do not signe-in into the LTE-Network while in VoLTE mode" - as I still have the problems with telefonica-germany reseller blau.de after restart or cellswitches while beeing out of reception - like in my employers basement parking lot. This problem was discussed earlier, but did not resolve for me, without temporarily limiting to g3.
Ok, finaly I got the 18.1 Version from 16.5. to restart. I picked the "mobile data"-tile from the quick-Start-Buttons

Hi, I'm from the official rom. After flashing lineageos, I can only boot into the system with a complete black screen. I'm quite new to lineageos so I want to know if I did anything wrong or missed something.

Here's what I did:
1. Unlocked BL and flash TWRP (tried the above 3.3.1, 3.5.0 links and the latest one, no luck)
2. Wiped my data(tried wiped + format, no luck)
3. Install lineage 17.zip
After rebooting, I can see the reboot animation with the lineago logo, hear the sound and the vibration if I press the power bottom. But I can only see a black screen with no wallpaper or any apps.
4. I also tried to install lineage+opengapps ( arm64, nano, 10.0, 20220215).
After rebooting, I'm at the "Hi there" start screen and can choose different languages, after I choose english and hit start, I would stuck in the "just a sec" screen and my device keeps rebooting, I just see the lineageos logo and the "just a sec" screen

I also downloaded the md5 file and checked it myself, and my download is complete.

Thanks in advance

1. What officail ROM version did you had before installing lineage ?
2. In your point 1. you said you had no luck in using TWRP. What do you mean? After flashing you couldn't open TWRP?
3. In your point 2 you had no luck in wiping your phone. What do you mean "no luck" ? How you wied it, if TWRP was not working?
4. How did you install Lineage OS ?

Please be as much specific and detailed as you can - this will help other people understand what went wrong.

Rom lineage 17.1 is working good. But could there be a implementation for miracast/wfd to turn off the device display itself to save energy.

I know its a specific sony stock rom thing that could miracast with the screen off and that there is not a single custom rom that fix that. But my hopes are high that this could be implemented.

Thanks by the way for this lineage os 17.1 build. It is a good rom.

July update is out. Not much new except for the usual security updates.

If another custom ROM had that so I could use its implementation then I might include it. But otherwise I don't really want to add features but focus on keeping the device usable and secure. That's already enough work ;-)

Thanks! So far I've seen no issues with the July update. It's still such a great phone! Fingerprint sensor in the power button and it's just small yet reasonable specs. Thanks so much for keeping it alive!

Yes, also for me, lineageos 17 is the only best and stable rom in the world in this moment.....

Has anyone else faced issues where the phone shows the wrong date/time on startup?

On a fresh boot, the time is 9:58am on Saturday 18 September. It stays like this for approx 15 seconds until it finally updates to the current time (using network sync).

However, if I keep the phone on airplane mode, the time stays wrong until I disable airplane mode.

I'm wondering if this is a bug
  • with the most recent version of the ROM (I'll try with last month's version as well)
  • with the GApps package I'm using (I'm using the mini package which replaces stock clock with google clock)
I'll update this post if and when I have more information.

----
Update 1: Reflashed the September ROM with a smaller GApps package (micro instead of mini) and date/time issue still shows up. So GApps and the Google Clock isn't to blame. I'll try August ROM and see what happens.

Update 2: Flashed the August ROM and the datetime issue still persists.

Update 3: I'm attaching steps on how to reproduce this and I'd be really interested to see if anyone else is able to reproduce this:
  1. Make sure your phone's time is currently normal/correct
  2. Put phone into airplane mode
  3. Reboot phone
  4. Time should now be wrong on startup
  5. Disable airplane mode, time should now be updated once network connectivity is back

I just encountered this same problem (almost a year after this author's post) on 17.1-20220516. While it doesn't seem like a big deal on the surface (time & date sync as soon as it gets a network connection), it has the annoying side-effect of totally throwing off the battery stats, as shown in this screenshot:

Screenshot_20220801-110635_Settings.png


I didn't see any further posts offering solutions but wondering if anyone else might know what's causing this.

On an semi-related note, I encountered this trying to figure out what's causing the battery drain seen in that screenshot: 60% drop in less than a day with at least 8 hours of that time in airplane mode. The numbers/percentages listed just don't add up.

    Happy Easter!

    I uploaded the 17 & 18 versions of the new ROM to GDrive. Google wallet seems to work. The 19 and MicroG versions still need some testing, will upload after Easter.

    @snoopy29 not sure what you mean exactly. Can you Clearly describe the issue? But likely not fixed as I have spent a lot of time on IMS, kernel issues and the Play Integrity stuff especially if the time issue only happen on reboot it is annoying but not crucial. I haven't seen it on 17-non-MicroG (using network time which might hide it)
    8
    Currently uploading the remaining builds (19.1 & MicroG versions) after some more testing and fixes. Play Integrity now passes on all builds and Wallet should hence work again. You can also use the PIF JSON file to change the fingerprints in case it gets blocked, as if PlayIntegrityFork was installed. Place it at /data/adb/pif.json to use. Only Build fields are supported though (i.e. not the properties)
    See the example file or better /vendor/etc/pif.json on the phone for the format and current usages.

    The time issues on 17.1 persist and are hard to fix if at all so I stopped searching for a fix after some time as it works on 18 & 19 and on 17 the auto-set from network is "good enough". Or just don't reboot ;-)
    2
    Also, does VoLTE work stable as in stock rom?

    VoLTE and VoWiFi should work better than in stock ROM, universal support has been added, so the only limitation is the carrier possibly blocking the phone.

    I took these steps to enable VoLTE as shown in an earlier post

    For the March 2024 update, those steps are not necessary anymore. IMS features start automatically, when IMS is enabled in XperiaParts.

    Hi,
    I tried out 17 and 18 and everything works fine.
    Any suggestions?

    Choose one.
    1
    In version 17, I have always had the problem of the proximity sensor which during a call, in certain situations, when I move my face away, causes the screen to remain black and therefore makes it inaccessible to use the phone for example on speakerphone, during a call, to navigate or simply press keys on the numeric keyboard. This doesn't happen with other versions of lineageos. As a compensatory solution, we would need a function that forces the screen to stay on during the call, even with your face close...
    Has your phone ever been disassembled? Do you feel the top of the screen being a bit above the phone's case?

    If you do, that's likely the reason. I have never experienced this, but will keep an eye out for this behavior.
    As a momentary fix, you can press the power button and that will wake up the screen.

    LineageOS 17/18/19 for Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact

    logo.png


    RELEASE

    This is an alternative ROM for the Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact.

    It is based on the great work of modpunk and derf elot from https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-lineageos-18-1-unofficial-2-0-update-2021-01-20.4047763/ with recent security updates, some backported from newer versions.

    FEATURES
    • Signed with dev keys
    • EAS kernel
    • Passes SafetyNet out of the box (thanks Rooted_Ansh, Havoc-OS Team and kdrag0n)
    • Seedvault (Video)
    • IMS support (thanks to Rooted_Ansh and also Shujath)
    • 17.1 has stock Sony camera (not possible on 18+)

    DOWNLOAD
    You can download the latest release here. (Backup download when AFH isn't uploading)
    HINT: Download both the ZIP and md5sum file so TWRP can check the consistency of the upload/download.
    Make sure you download the right version, vanilla LineageOS is named lineage-*UNOFFICIAL-lilac.zip while the MicroG version is named lineage-*-MICROG--lilac.zip

    REQUIRED FIRMWARE: 47.2.A.11.228

    IMPORTANT:
    I only use the 17.1 releases myself. The 18.1/19.1 are build from mostly the same sources and roughly tested, i.e. boots, WiFi works and SN passes/MicroG self check shows OK.

    INSTALLATION

    IMPORTANT:
    Magisk seems to cause issues (bootloops) on update, so remove it first and reinstall if required. Note that Magisk is usually not required unless you want root.
    1. Put the zip file of the ROM on your SD card or internal store and boot into recovery.
    2. When coming from stock ROM, do a full wipe (i.e. factory reset) via "Wipe". You don't need to wipe system. When flashing the stock ROM you can select to not keep user data which is equivalent to this step.
    3. Go to "Install", select the zip file and add optionally the gapps zip. Then flash it.
    4. After updates you may now wipe cache&dalvik (option after install)
    I suggest to use modpunks TWRP recovery. Again: Don't forget the md5sum file!
    TWRP 3.3.1-0 by modpunk / derf elot
    Or use the latest TWRP for 17.1/18.1 or TWRP for 19.1.
    3.7.0 Seems to work well with latest updates (decryption working) but LineageOS 19.1 (Android 12) requires the ones with "_12" suffix, e.g. 3.6.2_12.

    For ease of use I suggest to flash this recovery (only required once):
    1. Boot in Fastboot mode: Hold "Volume Up" while connecting the USB cable to phone and PC
    2. Flash TWRP by running this on the PC: fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.3.1-0-lilac-android10-1.img
      (adjust the filename if necessary)
    3. From now you can boot TWRP by turning on the phone with "Volume Down" + Power
    I heavily recommend to make a full backup before any installation so you can go back in case of issues. Flashing an older ROM usually helps to recover bootloops etc.

    Upgrades between versions​

    Dirty-flashing (e.g. from 17.1 to 18.1) works well but you have to also flash a GApps version matching the Android version or the device will bootloop.
    For the upgrade to 19.1 you may need to fully remove OpenGapps by wiping /system and install e.g. MindTheGapps.

    SUPPORT

    There is NONE. If you have any issues or question ask in the thread so maybe someone else knows the answer.
    I'm just providing the ROM (Lineage 17.1 variant) I use myself for others to try too and build the Lineage 18/19 ROMs without much testing.
    Contributions to the sources are welcome and likely get integrated into the next release.

    I'm happy to announce the June update. Took a lot more work as I backported quite a bit to our kernel to fix CVE-2021-39686 although I'm not sure we were ever really affected by that. Anyway the backport fixes that hole and a few potential others making the device a bit safer!
    18
    April updates are out, enjoy! Again I had to backport every security patch from 18.1 to 17.1 so it really seems to be dying...
    I might switch to building LOS 20 though as derfelot doesn't seem to be providing updates anymore. And especially the battery charge/protection service that might be coming there looks promising...

    Could you provide LineageOS recovery for this device?

    Sorry no. I'd need to research how to create that recovery and maintaining 3/6 different ROM versions is already enough work especially with the hugely increased time/effort to keep LOS 17, so I can't afford to do even more.
    15
    @MarkMRL Update 20220516 is out which should also fix the headset issue. Reproduced, found and fixed it as far as I can tell.
