Hello everyone, It's been a while that I want to upgrade my stock XZ1 Compact phone to Android 11 and I'm trying to understand what is the best choice for my needs.
I'm looking for a Android 11 ROM that is "clean", without particular customizations or experimental software... I need it to be stable, first. Then, as a typical Android user, I would like to have Google Apps (Play, Maps, Photos, ...). No need instead to have Sony Xperia companion software, I never used it.
If I search for "lilac Android 11 ROMs", I see these on top:
1) LineageOS 18.1 Unofficial: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-lineageos-17-1-18-1-unofficial-update-2021-08-11.4308295/
2) Havok 4.6 Official: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-havoc-os-4-6-official-r.4225905/
3) AOSP 11 from another website: https://www.getdroidtips.com/android-11-sony-xperia-xz1-compact/
My doubts are related to (1) and (2): which one is the most tested and stable? Let's say, I don't want to flash my phone to have Android 11, but then Wi-Fi is not working as expected
I'm aware that the stock camera won't work anymore, and I will have to use OpenCamera.
Also about (3): how reliable is it? How is it different from the ROMs posted on this forum? From my udnerstanding, AOSP means it is "just" Android, no-Google. If I flash it, will I be able to still install Google Apps? Is it still a good choice compared to (1) and (2)?
Many thanks to everyone for the support
Hi there. I've had the same dilema. For short, Android 11 is "bleeding edge" - so some features are not yet supported/problematic (LOS 18.1). Android 10 (LOS 17.1) is better, because sony camera blob works, volte works, etc.. i'am using it for 2 months now and had zero problems, 100% stability and Good battery life.
If you want to get a system like in iOS (that is, closed), then put any ROM on android 10. You can't delete anything from the ROM or change it, get ready. New AndriOS

You wouldn't understand it. It is obvious that you are new and probably do not know what a deodex is even. So let's forget about the conversation.

I've used various Sony stock-based ROMs since I had the Z1. However, I really like to use Gravity Box, and I find this combination can cause problems.
Would I be better off with an AOSP-based ROM, and if so, which ones are recommended? How do they compare to stock: are they stable, will camera quality be okay, etc? And are there any kernels for AOSP that allow OC/UV etc?
Thanks!

Gravity box causes no issues with Sony based roms if you have the latest updates in both Xposed, GB and Sony rom.
No one can (Or should) recommend a ROM as best ROM threads are not allowed. This is for the same reason why you cannot ask which is the best pizza. I would say spicy and meaty, but others would argue to put fruit and fish on theirs... Its personal choice.
As for kernels, just look in the development section, there are plenty and they all have their features in the OP for you to check.
So your answer from me is
1) Set your phone up correctly
2) Try the various ROMs out for yourself to see which is best for you
3) Read the OPs of the kernel thread.

Thanks for your reply Greg. Since you said Sony stock ROMs should work fine, I won't need recommendations anyway. Apologies for breaking the rules.
I'm using up to date versions of Xposed, GB and ROM. I'd assumed the issues I occasionally experience (SystemUI FCs etc) are due to the supposed GB/Sony incompatibility. But bearing in mind what you said, perhaps the problem could be from the ROM itself.
I never have FC with GB
Try uninstalling a module at a time and see which one is causing it
I'm using gravity box with stock ROM 4.4.4 and working fine, along side some other mods...

Great Thank you for your job ?, i test
At first glance I thought this was a tw rom running on marshmallow lol looks great still
I was thinking of installing this but the issue is we don't know if the developer will continue to update it. And if we had to change rom later because of no updates then it will just be a hassle to clean flash.
I install it and work flawleslly.I miss fingerprint screenlock , edge screen and air command from note5.Hope this will be in later version

I'm thinking the same. The ROM's name is misleading considering it has the "TouchWiz" mixed in it. I'd still use @albinoman887's unofficial CM13 considering updates keep coming through.

I won't see that happening in the near future since this seems to be an AOSP ROM (much like CyanogenMOD), just named "PopWiz".
Any benchmark fot this rom ????

I am not the creator of this rom, it only gives information
Just tested the ROM for the Note Pro. Works fine so far, a little weak battery, but that's the major problem of the phone since the beginning.
Still looking for fixing green cam when video call using Whatsapp bro, I think the problem is volte mode, when I try to active volte mode from magisk module, then using video call Whatsapp, then I got notice that "can't use camera for this moment, try to restart if you still see this issue".
So when I unable volte mode, I can use WhatsApp for video call, but front cam and rear cam being green.
Ok i decided to try this rom and it is not bad. Today is my first full day using my old note pro with this rom and sim. I have a 3 hours screen time and 4 hours Spotify and i can't remember on miui life like this, so it is a good rom. APTX work with my KZ ZS5 and sound is excellent. Beside how to activate VoLTE i want to know if there is a way to activate camera2appi for using g cam, on miui 9 is easy, but here old method doesn't work.
I wondered that if there is any possibility to enable Double Tap To Wake on Mokee 100.0 ? Thanks a lot

Hello everyone,
imgui/examples/example_android_opengl3 at master · ocornut/imgui
Dear ImGui: Bloat-free Graphical User interface for C++ with minimal dependencies - imgui/examples/example_android_opengl3 at master · ocornut/imgui
github.com
My project is based on this C++ project in Android Studio (ImGui). I had successfully compiled and run the project using the older Android Studio version 2021.3.1.17. However, upon upgrading to Android 2022.2.1 Patch 1, I encountered numerous errors, some of which remained unresolved even after several attempts at restarting, reinstalling, cleaning, and rebuilding the project.
Additionally, I have question: When I press the Run ► button, the app on the emulator does not start. According to the logs, the app, was successfully installed. However, when I touch its icon (ImGuiExample), I get the message "App isn't installed". Can anyone suggest a solution to this problem?
I have a difficult question that I hope someone can help me with: Is there a lightweight version of Android Studio that I can use to build my project without having to download so many SDK files? I believe a lightweight software with fewer SDK files will make it easier for developers to fix bugs, the Android Studio I use has so many SDK files.
Thank you in advance for your help.

I am not entirely certain, but I believe that the project was working fine with the old Android Studio 2021, likely because Imgui 1.89 worked but this is Imgui 1.89.6 (a newer), and I uninstalled the old Android Studio.
The solution for me is to downgrade to android-studio-2021.3.1.17. If the breakpoints don't work too for ndkVersion "25.1.8937393" for example then downgrade to ndkVersion "21.4.7075529". The key is then to switch between versions, and you can stick on one version without changing to another version for a long time.
But why, Android Studio has so many versions, I mean a lot? And it's difficult to find the perfect version.
