AOSP Roms - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello! I want to switch from Sony Lollipop 5.1.1 to a stable AOSP based rom. I tried CyanogenMod 12.1 and AOSP Jaguar but I experienced screen freezes and general lag that makes me to go back to stock rom. It is a problem with my device or it is a problem with AOSP roms? What can I do in case that my device has this problem?

hi i tried all cm based roms and oasp roms and i can confirm you that all of them have screen freezes. There aren't any solutions expect to switch to stock based roms.

No problem dude but it's strange because it seemed that some users don't have this issue. The only one i didn't tried is this one http://fxpblog.co/qualcomm-krait-400-family/sony-xperia-z1/ because i don't understand how to flash it. If you want to try. (the aosp one)

Hey dude just had an idea. Which gapps are you using? I personnaly have ever used open gapps ans Never tried other ones. Can't try to change now, but will probably tomorrow. I'm going to say you how it evolve. Say me if you find a solution or a rom without this issue.

Hmm, I don't really know. I will give it a try without gapps when I will have time. For the moment I need a fully functional phone.

Reroot ur phone and flash
Remember do your own experiments on your phone because its yours
So find a solution by yourself because no one has this problem
Blame Samsung I read somewhere that our phone got this problem
So try and try until u get it
i'm sorry to say you can't do anything about it... neither a developer can, as far as i know.. about 5% of s3 minis have this problem.... you just live with it, i do too

Ya tried any other roms yet? I know it works on 4.3 PAC and my KK ROM (just tested it). ATT user and I don't pay for the service, but it works. Custom roms are awesome.
I love custom ROMs, I've been flashing and rooting for about 3yrs now. What's your KK ROM?

Aosp based 4.4.1 with minimal tweaks. I haven't updated it in a bit, but I've been running it for a month now, needing a reboot once a week or so. I'll get back to working on it eventually.
Edit: It has some issues, but nothing major. Chrome likes to crash with an assload of tabs open for an example.
Can you post the link for me please? It sounds like a good reliable ROM, I would eventually like to learn how to build ROMs.

It's posted under development, about 8 down last I looked. If I were you I'd use Validus (until 4.4 Pac is ready) instead.

buzzing sound from speaker

Hello guys
Recently I unlocked the phone bootloader , rooted and installed a new ROM ..
But when I get a notification sometimes , a high pitch buzz sound comes out of the speaker and at the same time I discovered that the earphone Jack doesn't work anymore
This didn't happen before I installed the new ROM so I thought I install another ROM but it occurred on the new ROM too
Thanks for your help

Sorry but that didn't help , the problem still exists ,can this be a hardware problem ? Something wrong with the headphone jack? Should I flash the custom ROM to be sure ?

Try CM11 and check whether the issue continues
It's a known issue with AOSP based roms

I did not face that issues when i flashed cm11 or aokp
It's not a constant buzz, only briefly every so often. I'm not sure whether it's because older blobs are used or because of cm itself

So... Any working ROMS for the Z1S out there?

So I recently acquired a Sony Xperia Z1S.
Just got it rooted and also installed a custom recovery (TWRP).
Now what's left is a custom ROM to install..
Is there anything out there for the Z1S yet? I saw the MIUI v5 ROM LifeHacks posted but it seems to have a few issues and not very stable..
Thanks!
bump.
There will not be custom rom such as CM, MIUI or any other because your phone cant be unlocked.
But there is probably some stock based roms that you can use.
I will search a little bit.

Stock gapps for aosip?

Aosip is my favourite ROM but I can't figure out how to get the stock gapps working as with stock. For example the caller I'd or business search on the dialer.
I tried the PA gapps stock version but it still didn't work. Any ideas? I've been searching around for an answer for days.

stock stuff works only on stock, it looks as the rom is aosp based. stock and aosp are not the same, they are different roms.
Oh darn. Now I need to contemplate whether or not to go back to stock. Thanks for your help! I thought there might be a workaround though. :/

not that i know of, sorry
The dialer is not part of gapps. You can try and rip the stock dialer out. That used to work on kitkat..otherwise grab the slim roms dialer
For anyone still curious, I finally found a fix at this thread!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/themes-apps/request-google-dialer-2-1-t3097787
Its a flash able zip via recovery. It's the stock dialer.

I gave you the fix already. You just found a vehicle to implement the fix I already told you about.
