[ROM] LineageOS 17/18/19 UNOFFICIAL - (Update: 2023-08-26)

Did you backup the TA partition to make it possible to restore the DRM keys before unlocking the bootloader?

Unfortunately no

Unfortunately no

@zpunout Ditto, is there a link with the fact that people say they hear me very weakly?

I can't say for sure if no DRM backup/restore is the cause, but I thought it's worth asking in case it helps narrow down the cause.

As a side note, DRM backup is generally desired for Xperia phones, but requires discovering exploits in the stock operating system to make doing it possible. Once the bootloader is unlocked without DRM backup of the TA partition, the unique DRM keys for your phone are lost forever.

If there's no backup, I think it's the only option is to focus on finding a specific module that restores the Call's Microphone settings.

Hi , Dev
Thanks For Make Still Live SONY ZX1C , I use Docomo Used, Deep Sleep Not Working , I Already Remove ALL driver NFC, Deep Sleep Working Only On Havoc 3.11 And PE+ all A10. The Rom Have PN550.ko (STOCK BASE )
But I Can't See the file In new Rom

 

[Dfis]

Hello.
The microphone is a very low volume on normal calls but ok on Speaker mode...
Does anyone else experience a similar issue?

Anyone? The phone is useless like this. Can't make normal calls anymore

Hi guys, is there a way to make the connection between the phone and the (pioneer) bluetooth car stereo automatic?...because in my case it stays connected for a day and then I have to re-pair it every time because it doesn't do it automatically. I disabled the android auto app because I don't use it.
I use Lineageos 17.
Thank you

 

[Maflo]

After a long reflection (and while waiting for Havoc OS to be out of stand-by and release their 6.X version), I switched to LineageOS17 especially for the argument that it is the last version with stock app camera and that this is the version used by whoever builds the ROM.
First of all, a huge thank you to all the contributors of this version <3

Very satisfied so far with my switch to this version; just a few remarks:
- In "Styles and wallpapers", it lacks diversity of clock choices (like one with seconds which I like). But I quibble.
- The default "Gallery" application does not offer a dark theme. I quibble too => EDIT1: I found an alternative using Sony's Album app available at this address (take the version that does not contain the word ROM)

In short, once again, a big thank you for this version

I have experienced similar, faint echoing microphone only during gsm calls but hands free flawless. I have two phones, the first one was like this when I bought it, the bl was closed and I saved the ta partition unfortunately I didn't test the operation in closed state so I didn't notice that the rom replacement would have changed the situation. However, there are some facts you can read about, it happened in small series that the microphone rubber is not properly fixed so it moves during repair or when replacing the battery it falls off. If the installer is not aware of this type specific problem, it is easy to miss.In my case, this must have been the problem, because after a few months this phone required assembly after a slight drop, during which it turned out that the service had also left out the closing part of the display connector, which is why the display connector was able to release, so when the phone was completely disassembled, it became visible that the lower microphone rubber is missing. The bottom microphone and the speaker are very close to each other, and in the absence of rubber they cancel each other out. The malfunction of the microphone can happen spontaneously, you can see it is available on aliexpress because there was a demand for it. Only 1-2% of users report their phone malfunctioning on a forum, and even less in full detail.

Sounds like a bug in the software, otherwise the mic would be bad at all times. Try installing the latest stock rom and test, then install this rom and test again. You could also try Los 20 before reflashing to stock. My point is, try things out.
Drm keys have nothing to do with the microphone.
Also, any magisk modules? They migh be conflicting with the mic.

Anyone else using LineageOS17 and TikTok? No matter how hard I look, the application does not want to launch and hangs on startup. However, I haven't touched much except deleting stock Gallery via ADB AppControl

I think you should consider switching to 18.1, the gallery works well, what you lose is the sony camera app 720p 960fps and the selfie wide-view, but opencamera gives the same beautiful picture as the sony app. Many thanks to flamefire for keeping 17.1 alive, but he wrote earlier that its improvement is finite, so I think sooner or later the wind of change will catch up. I don't know much about Tiktok, maybe try the tiktok lite version.

Well done, the lite application works perfectly. The lite version was not available in my region so I couldn't find it on the store.

Weird that the classic version doesn't work though, this is the first rom that does this to me (and I've tested Havoc 3.X, 4.X, 5.X as well as LineageOS 20)

For the rest, thank you for your advice but as long as @Flamefire will continue to use version 17 in its daily life, I plan to stay with it... Unless 17 and 18 have the same optimizations and differ only by the camera app.

Wow...thanks mate

Well, despite the disassembly and replacement of the loudspeaker (earpiece), still no sound coming out... I'm going to have to say goodbye to my XZ1C and use it as a backup phone. No choice therefore to switch to the Xperia 5 or the Xperia 10. It will have been a great adventure on the XZ1C for 3 years.

Tried to restore to the stock version and still same behavior... Tried to disable the modules and had no luck, the microphone was still low. I hope someone has a solution for this

In that case sounds like a hardware problem. Before doing anything drastic, try cleaning the microphone with those sprays (I forgot how they're called). It might be due to dirt.

Hi. Doesn't make any sense... Before unlocking bootloader it worked perfect. Musr be something else

Im on Lineage 17 after 16 and i can see its much faster but it seems the battery is draining quicker than on 16. Anyone can confirm this? Also, how is the battery doing on 18 ?
