Missing WMLA key - Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
Some how I'm missing one of the DRM keys. The WMLA key on my phone is gone. I've got "MARLIN [Key OK][Active]", "CKB [Key OK][Active" and "WIDEVINE [Key OK][Active] but no WMLA what so ever. I have tried to flash other firmware(with TA partition) via Flash Tool but no luck. WMLA is still missing.
After flashing a new firmware I don't need to restore the TA Backup. The DRM keys I've got are OK so I might do something wrong but I don't know what.
Anyone know what to do... ?

Hmm also have no wmla. Had unlocked my bl some time ago but restored backup. So maybe there is no wmla key?!

Camera freezes
Ok.
It looks like the different Z models have different DRM keys and it seem like Z3C doesn't have the WMLA key.
My problem is that the camera is broken. Sometimes it's just black and sometimes it freezes after a couple of seconds. Also my mic is acting strange. When I talk to somebody they say that I sound like I'm talking in a bucket. Same problem with several roms.
I have unlocked the BL and locked it again but the problem still remains
Here are my keys. They seem to be ok... or?

Problems with touchscreen

Hey everyone, im having problems with my touchscreen, seems like its out of sync or could be broken, its like when im typing something on keyboard sometimes menu window pops up out of nowhere or if i press lets say on QWERTY keyboard letter "a" on text input box letter "z" appears :s ... even if i slide between homescreens sometimes my menu does pop up, i delivered my phone to waranty service they gave the phone back after 3days and all they did was reinstalled 2.1 i dont know what to do now :s im planning to send the device to waranty once again :/ or maybe i could repair this by myself somehow ? Couse warranty service guys did not find anything wrong with my device
Note: Reinstalling software, changing versions from 2.3 to 2.1 and calibrating screen dosnt help
Here's few screens of touch screen pointers:
RED - Where i actually slide
YELLOW - Where touch points leak

Sounds very much like your touchscreen is broken. Do a recovery backup, restore or install via KDZ an original rom, and take the phone to a service center, if it's under warranty. If not, maybe you can skip the backup part. Good luck.
had the same problem with my phone... it started very subtle but then got worse.. to the point where i couldn't unlock my phone anymore =( send it to warranty, they switched the touchscreen. just got it back today, working fine now. send it back and tell them your touchscreen is broken...
Thanks for response, unfortunetely thats exactly what i did, but they prolly couldnt find the problem, couse it starts only when u use phone a little, screen gets warmer, when its cold, no problem at all

Unknown phone call tried to access root

I received a phone call on my phone yesterday afternoon from the number +162599121 which tried to gain root access to something called data center on the phone. I didnt know what it was but I allowed it to pass through, though i did not pick the call.
Then when I got up this morning I saw this on the phone.

By any chance are these two related? Did some googling and found out that other people are also getting this but no one seems to know what it is. I'm from singapore running a rooted, but completely stock unbranded Samsung LSE ROM (Singapore CSC) and Speedmod kernel.
You are using 3g without any signal.. Amazing! Well never heard of this case that preconfig is requesting su permissions before at xda. It's a system file look at screenshot

Its pretty common to get 3G or even HSPA with zero bars here.
Anyway I found out that preconfig might have something to do with changing the CSC of the phone. Im already using a ROM with my region's CSC so there should not be a need for it. And I doubt samsung will try to change it in any way.
BUMMMMMP

[Q] Fingerprint Issues

I tried setting up my fingerprint and get this error. Phone is up to date, tried factory reset, clear cache, and rebooting like it says. It is still broken. I called t-mobile, and the tech said it is a known issue and to wait for a patch. If it is known, has anyone else here seen this?

I've gotten same error. I've stopped using the fingerprint security for that reason. I've noticed it doesnt recognize my fingerprint all the time.
Just seemed buggy to me, its like i have to place my finger carefully in the similar manner i did when setting up the fingerprint.
A someone who has worked on fingerprint scanners of all kinds, while it could be a samsung issue, it is also possible the fingerprint scanner is not picking up your fingerprints if they are too shallow. This is a common issue. This can actually happen.

Are a couple of easily googleable instances of this.
The best suggestion is compare to someone's working fingerprints as a way to be sure its the phone and not your fingerprints. Hope that helps.
This happens as soon as I press the fingerprint button under Security settings. I can't even attempt to register one.
Yeah sounds like a hardware issue. I'd get an exchange

Get it replaced. My iPhone 6 had the same issue and Apple said it was a faulty sensor. Those things are very touchy.

Sony Xperia Z3 Compact screen static/white noise.

I have recently gotten a Z3 Compact. It had no screen and i have now fitted a new screen. Everything works. It turns on. The screen turns on. It just only displays the full screen in a small section at the top and like 90% of the screen is a static/white noise display. It seems like it isnt displaying at its full resolution.

Does anyone have any idea what to do.
Things i have tried are:
Doing an update through pc companion
Updating via pc companion.
Re-connecting the screen.
The screen does however work. The full screen works as a touch screen and i have to tap on the center of the screen to select shutdown options even though the display is only on the top strip like in the picture above.
any help would be much appreciated,
thanks,
wivane

Either you have faulty new display or incompatible (Sony used few display manufactures for various models-reflashing kernel should work), or you damaged port (pins) while replacing...
My guess...

yeah, my thoughts too. as i can remember, in the system files u can check what display is installed. (software) maybe it isn't a "original" matching display.

Stock kernel should check LCD version when flashed and rewrite proper drivers... if that is the case...

OnePlus 3T won't recognize Rear Camera, or turn on the Flashlight

Okay, so here's what I've tried to fix this problem, and I'm still drawing blanks. Here's the problem - the phone acts as if there is no rear camera whatsoever, nor led light on the back for a flashlight. Selfie (front-facing) camera works as intended.
1) Clear Cache on app.
2) Multiple different camera apps

- no change
3) full factory reset - no change
4) Aftermarket ROM - LineageOS - no change
5) installed brand new camera purchased new from witrigs - no change
6) Z-Device test
Weird that it shows front facing (secondary) camera isn't working, but front-facing works fine. If I try to save a z-device log, the app crashes every time. And this is a fresh install.
There was no inciting incident or anything done to the phone, no fall or water damage or anything along those lines. I'm running out of ideas here, what else can I do/try to get this thing working?

So I've just spent the past couple of hours trying to make that work. No luck on SO many steps. I imagine it's because the phone is not bricked? Is there another tool that would potentially accomplish the same thing?

This unbrick guide can be used even if the phone is not bricked.
What steps gave you problems?
