Which Kernel? - Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am currently the Xpower 5.0 ROM which is mostly fine. I do find that often it lags and the battery drain is a little high.
The current Kernel I am using is 3.10.84 - xkernel Oct 21 2016.
Is there a better kernel available?

AndroPlus v40 works well on XPower 5.0, just do not go higher than that as your ROM is based on .305

Thank you. Also how does it compare to Zachs kernel?

Too bad that no one is responding. I'm also looking for a new kernel for my z5 compact and I'm also on XPower 5.0. I tried Androplus-Kernel v40, but had problems with camera fc (when starting to record video, it starts after a few hours of uptime, it's not occurring from the beginning). Maybe there's someone out there who could help.

Mic not working on speaker mode

Hi... During a call the other party didn't hear me if I am on speaker. I know this is a own issue with onyx but I am not able to find any solution. Does any custom rom fix it ??

What spec do your phone run on? I have the same issue. I currently submitted a bug report at the CM thread. Gotta post here if i find a solution.
My spec: Device model ONE E1003 Cyanogen Mod version MA-12.1-20160114 onyx MA version 10.0s STABLE Android version 5.1.1 Kernel version 3.4.0+ arvind Master Awesome#1 open_gapps-arm-5.1-nano-20160117
The problem is that, we are currently using outdated Roms, this is from the CM13.x thread changelog. I have an older version installed.
20-01-2016:
Fixed GPS(Takes some time to lock though)
Fixed the UI/UX jitter (A 7k bump in Antutu score,I get around 48k),phone feels really snappy now.

On my Motorola Droid Maxx, I fixed the speakerphone - mic issue by flashing the latest modem/ radio available from Motorola for my device.
You might want to try this for your make/ model. I am pretty sure it will fix the issue.

Please help me pick a custom Rom, overwhelmed

Finally managed to officially unlock bootloader, but since I started that process over 2 weeks ago, a lot has happened in the Rom and development forum. I was originally going for CM13, but I'm not longer sure if that's a good idea.
I mostly use my phone as a music player, and it runs most of the day while I'm at work. I occasionally send calls and text messages.
I got the RMN3 for the battery and significantly larger screen than what I had before. Phone plans in canada are god awful and as such I got literally no data on my plan, so outside of home wifi, I got no internet on it.
The reason I want a custom rom is mainly to remove bloat and improve battery life, and maybe add a few functions/ behaviours.
I don't really care about the fingerprint sensor, should it not work, but having the camera non-functional is a no-go.
I'm not really interested in constantly having to flash an update on my phone. I just want one good, stable rom with little to no bloat that will do what I'll ask it to, with a good battery life, without crashing. Updating once every month or so would be reasonable. I heard that Android 7(+) had some battery life improvements (Doze?) so I'm conflicted as to rom and android versions.
I'm pretty new to Android, and I'm completely overwhelmed by the many different types of roms, along with the many different versions of the same rom (Example: many CM14/14.1 builds).
There's a lot of guides, but most of them seem out of date.
Device: Global Dev, Kenzo
Any suggestions? (If possible, please also include which version of TWRP you would recommend)
I personnally own the Kate version and flashed the official CM13 ROM built for Kenzo on it.
Everything is working fine for me, including the fingerprint sensor and the camera.
I also use the phone to listen to music all day at work and it worked really well with good battery life.
About the TWRP version I used, honestly I don't remember very well since I tried a few and the reason was something to do with the Kate device I believe, so you may not have to use the same version of TWRP.

I Was A Motorola Moto G 3rd Generation User & From The Day I Got The Motorola Moto G 3rd Generation I Was Using The ( Nexus Experience ) ROM & It's The Most Perfectly Stable ROM You Will Ever Use On Any Device & I Got The Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro Yesterday & I Am Waiting For The Permission Of Unlocking Then I Will Try The Custom ROM's For This Phone If You Want The Best Stable ROM's For Any Phone
It Goes Like This
1st Stable ROM : Stock ROM
2nd Stable ROM : CyanogenMod
3rd Stable ROM : Nexus Experience
And It's Only My Opinion But I Tried All Of The Custom ROM's For The Motorola Moto G 3rd Generation & I Didn't Found A Better ROM Than

Hi, you mentioned stock ROM (not Cyanogen or Nexus experience, just stock). Where could I get that from?
I'm on beanstalk ROM (android 7.1) loving it!
Try krexus-CAF!
You could go for the official build of RR with Radon kernel
welcome to the race, mate
well if you want to improve battery life you are recomended to flash AOSP-Based roms . miui and cm-based roms have battery drain issue (i can't explain why, but i can say that because i tried them)
my recomendation would be Cardinal AOSP
try rr remix 5.7.4 with radon kernel...

Now for real: Which is the most stable "6.0 and up" ROM for the Galaxy Alpha G850F?

Now for real: Which is the most stable "6.0 and up" ROM for the Galaxy Alpha G850F?
I'm sick of it... finding the stock ROM is a pain in the ass and all custom Roms above Lollipop are mostly unusable as daily drivers.
Resurrection Remix and Lineage OS got problems with recognizing phone rotation... youtube gets literally unusable.
Epsil ROM and other Lollipop ROMs got harsh slowdowns after some days that can only be fixed by restarting.
Is there any ROM from Marshmallow upwards that is stable enough to get used as an daily driver?
From my experience, no. There is not even plenty of roms above Marshmallow for this device, only the cyanogenmod/lineage and their RR versions.
i see only stock rom is the best for Galaxy Alpha with all fully feature
Yeah, tried all of the ROMS. Epsil is the most stable atm

Ep rom's more smooth than stock rom but consuming more battery when ide
Stock huh?
The normal firmware of my phone is a ****ing bugfest.
Epsil and Resurrection Remix were nearly perfect, but both got that funny problem that turning the phone won't work after some time.
I don't really care about my phone not recognizing rotation, but I can't stand this pesky bug breaking all sound when somebody calls me as I listen to music. I'm currently trying all of CM/Lineage/RR based ROMs to see if there's any without that problem. If everything fails, I'll either stick to whichever TouchWiz based one with working stock bluetooth equalizer, or go back to full stock/rooted stock.
Hi, and what did you choose as daily driver rom?
Modpunks LOS14.1 is nice but only if camera support wasn't a meme due to changes to how nougat handles camera
I think it's better to try to port an A5 or A7 rom because A7 have same SoC with the alpha

Actually, only the A7 shares the same SoC, the A5 does not.
The A7 also sports the 5.0.2 Android so, there's no point in doing that...
Hello, i am in a DIRE need of 7.0(+) ROM (which has working GSM and GPS) for a friends device.
He absolutely need to play Pokemon GO which was recently updated and the default (5.0.2) ROM is no longer supported. Phone will be used ONLY for that.

Happy New Year!
I will suggest to try Kyasu Cyanogen 12.1 Rom.
The only problem that he is stop to developing at Lollipop 5.1 for SM-G850F.
Quite pity...
I never really wanted to dig up an old thread, but I was still using a Galaxy Alpha until a few weeks ago.
Just to be clear: there is absolutely NO custom rom (> lollipop) to use, right? You cannot make calls with any "final" "fully working" "best rom". So every real CustomROM is useless, or am I wrong?

I never noticed a problem with the last RR. The camera crashes were easy to solve
As someone who wants to get an old phone to fool around with, the G850W sounds boring as it's yet another 801 phone, but I think the Exynos G850F would be interesting. Is there a good 6.0+ ROM yet as of 2023?

Best Android Pie Rom for battery life

Hello,
So I bought the Pocophone F1 and it's in his way to my house. Probably I will not keep the MIU software and use a rom like I did with my others smartphones. I was looking for a subject where they could detail about the roms and their battery life, because some roms are new to me, but didn't found anything.
Do you know a good rom with battery life improvement? Not sure about lineage, beacause there's too much features that I will not use.
Miui 10 8.11.2 based on android pie.. best battery life.. unlocked your bootloader .then flash Sphinx Kernel by Milouk.. .even the asus rog phone beat the performance..

Have you been trying others rom with the pocophone?
The Sphinx Kernel looks pretty good.
I am flashaholic and i love lineage OS but so far i have not installed any rom for now..im satisfied with the stock rom ( Miui ) maybe in the near future . .. for now i am enjoying Miui. ..Sphinx kernel makes the pocophone beast.. milouk has a good reputation his known for being smart , intelligent and a humble developer back in the days with Nexus device.And lots of users are happy to see him working with our devices so Cheers!!!!
LiquidRemix (9.0) rom have very good battery life. Before I was on Miui 9 latest. LiquidRemix rom has better battery life and performance for me. I saw Havoc rom recent one but I have not try it yet.
I had flashed the los, I felt it had not customisations at all..lol..
I tried nitrogen os..
But now I m using latest global beta..
Currently the miui provides the best battery backup and best performance.. just flash the sphinx kernel..
Battery backup is very good on all roms but best on miui

Well you convinced me! Maybe for roms is too soon, because most of them have something that is not working yet. I always thought that the MIUI was not taking the full advantage of the battery and management was not that good.
When you bought the phone, did he came with the clean stock miui? Or you had to flash it?
Your thought was wrong..Battey management and performance are fluid ...You can install MiuP https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sid.miuilatestupdates&hl=en there's a hidden settings , Go to Power mode and select Performance. .you cant' find these settings to your stock settings , it will activate battery performance. I am using my device for two days moderate usage of gaming , Pubg and Vainglory...i suggest turn off the notification setting with this app because it's very annoying popping up news every 30 mins..Good Luck!!!
Thank You very much bamz1117 for your advice. Once I'll get the phone I will flash the kernel and install the to access to hidden settings.
Your Welcome...Hit thanks if you like @DarkyX_90
All roms have excellent battery backup and ram usage but if you want just a close to stock android rom with minimal features, your best bet would be the Lineage OS. Install a GApps Pico build and you're good to go.
Most of the time I'm on lineage but currently I'm trying out the havoc os and loving its rich customization features
I would, but there's no thanks button
NOS is great for me. Full on stability and it's smooth. I was using MIUI PIE 8.11.8 and thought it's awesome until I flashed NOS rom. Everything is awesome now. Modded gcam does the job well too.
My suggestion would be to try MIUI PIE first and when you're bored with it, try NOS. You won't go back to MIUI ever.
that's fine it's a Q and A poll so you cant find a thanks button.... see this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/how-to/miui-10-stable-global-version-rolled-t3858866
Hey I got today the phone I was already to make everything, and the first thing I wanted to do was to update the miui. I have some questions because I am new with MIUI. On updates I have "10.0.4.0". I presume the " 8.11.2" is from the "developer rom", right?
1 - If yes, can it be dowloaded through the miui update on my smartphone? Or it's like a normal rom with TWRP?
2 - I went to http://en.miui.com/ and I just can found the " 8.10.25" version. Where did you get the 8.11.2?
3 - Any way to know which features may not work with the developer rom?
4 - The "8.11.2" has most languages available, or just because it's an advance version, it's just in english?
@DarkyX_90 Good to know you already have your phone ..this a Q and Q poll ..can you go to this thread so that i can help you out regarding your questions..https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/how-to/miui-10-stable-global-version-rolled-t3858866
Oh yes you right, I am sorry. Let's keep this topic as it is.
If anyone have thoughts about the battery and roms share with us.

Question Problem with offline charging

Hi. I have a problem with offline charging
when i connect the phone to the charger then the icon with the battery is displayed and there is a "?" mark inside it.
Can someone help me deal with this?
Are you running a custom ROM? It can be an sepolicy issue.

Yes, already superior OS gsi Rom based on Android 13
I tried installing other roms but nothing is working
I would imagine this is just an issue with generic ROMs not being properly customised for this device, as this behaviour is tricky for ROMs to get right. You'll only be able to tell if it's a hardware issue or not by going back to stock and seeing if it still happens.

Once I went back to stock rom, the problem didn't show up, so i think it is problem with not customised Rom for my phone

I had Miui 13 based on Android 11 (Europe version)
oh sorry my bad (normal monday morning .. i mean android 11 not miui...
a.t.m its best to flash A11 - MIUI 13 and over it Android GSI (for me worked A13 GSI wiith less bugs).

i already have a13 and i have following problems:
-miracast
-offline charging (question Mark inside battery icon)
-lagging even in 90hz. I already fixed that disabling HW overlays in treble settings. I had one GSI that didn't require to disable these overlays, so it's suspicious to me
-No LTE+ (just LTE, in stock it just works)
-screen recording
I don't know any other bugs, I already didn't discovered any other
the offline charging problem is safe a problem fro the custom rom.
the problem with 90hz is that many apps fixed to 60fps and then result is very lagging apps.
try variable hz magisk module: https://t.me/RedmiNote11S_Community/9785
only cherishOS A13
Evolution 7.5
and Derpfest (but the latest "test" release) running smooth without disable hw-overlays. idk why..
things they better work in gsi rather than miui:
better sound from speaker and no f*** "switchhopping" between soundmodes caused by a faulty proximity-sensor
better call audio (clearence)
performance in gaming (Evolution 7.5)
