Use this ROM at your own risk! It comes without any warranty! I'm not responsible for any damage! If you don't agree with that, don't try to flash this ROM in any way.

Benefits:

• Added F-Droid and UnifiedNLP! If you don't want this, simply de-install it.
• I've set maximum speaker volume to a higher value.
• I've increased microphone gain.
• I've changed the microfone gain to avoid echo in phone calls.

Changelog

Troubleshooting:

• If you're running into an error, please search in this thread if this error is already posted, before you post it again!
  If not, I need a LOG to see what went wrong. Without a LOG I can't help you!
  A LOG can be fetched by connecting the device with an USB cable to your PC and then by typing these commands line by line:
  

  adb root
  adb shell logcat -b all -d > logcat

  Send my this LOG file via PM.
• If you think this could be a SELinux related issue, please try to set the device to permissive mode first.
  If the issue is gone, I need the policy file too (plus LOG). Fetch it by typing this line in a terminal:
  

  adb pull /sys/fs/selinux/policy

• If you stuck in a bootloop you can fetch a LOG with this trick:
  • Press the power button and the volume up button together until the device shuts down.
  • HOLD the power button.
  • Release the volume up button and press the volume down button immediately after releasing the volmue up button.
  • The device should start into TWRP recovery.
  • Tap on "Advanced", then on "Terminal" and enter these commands line by line:
    

    cd sys/fs/pstore
    cp * /sdcard

  • Send me the copied file(s), if any, via PM.

One last request:

Please, do not ask about problems for which my ROM is not responsible.
From now on I will only react to problems that I can reproduce and that are caused by my ROM.

I'm sorry for that, but I'm developing this ROM in my spare time and I still have a normal life.

The SIM card recognition works now; please stay tuned.

 

[Berni-0815]

Currently I'm fighting with a crash loop while trying to enter SIM PIN.

Seems this is going to be a longer fight...

Hello Berni

For a short time, I tried rom with a spare device.
I also installed NikGapps.
First, it doesn't recognize the sim.
I tried rebooting several times, but it doesn't recognize it.
Also, I can't move the app icon.
The safety net was fine with Magisk.

Please do its best.　

 

[Berni-0815]

I haven't uploaded my latest changes because they are too unstable!

 

[Berni-0815]

I can't move the app icon

That's not a bug, that's a feature!
Long-press on an empty part of the screen and tab on "Home settings" and switch the first switch ("Lock layout") to the "on" position.
The logic behind this feature is reverse, so don't wonder.

 

[norabitox]

That's not a bug, that's a feature!

Is that so
Thank you

I could flash your android 12 version. recovery is changed to stock recovery, I reflashed twrp.
Welcome Screen was flickered, after 2 reboots I could create my profile on my z5 compact.
I had a lot of crashed on homescreen.
Call and sms are working.

 

[Berni-0815]

Weird! I don't have any crashes! Could you please grab and send LOGs?

 

[King-Ossy]

good work, does gapps work?

 

[darkangel32]

Thanks will try out this rom after awhile

 

[Berni-0815]

Please don't forget: This is a very early ALPHA version! Don't expect any miracle!
And if possible, grab LOGs and search them for fatal errors (" F " <- a blank, a capital letter F and a blank) and for messages like "dlopen failed: cannot locate symbol".
I'm using "grep" for that:

grep " F " logcat > logcat.fatal
grep "dlopen failed: cannot locate symbol" logcat > logcat.symbol

...or like that...

Hi! Could you port this rom on sony Z5 premium?

 

[Berni-0815]

I'm only building for suzuran (Z5 compact E5803, E5823)!
Please ask @Joel16 for further assistance.
He's the maintainer for Z5 premium.
