Time to clean up my XZ3 H9436 - Sony Xperia XZ3 Questions & Answers

Hello,
I was super happy of my Xperia XZ3 H9436 model, however in the last months is getting unresponsive and take tons of time to load some application. Most of the time in relation of my Work profile account from the company.
Can you suggest me the BEST WAY to clean up and restore it? I don't think I can load any cyanogen build due the working profile, I must stay on an official rom by Sony and apply tweaks.
Please let me know I'm quite lost with all the post and roms version there.
Thank you in advance,
M4z.

I don't think it makes any difference which custom rom you use.
I used to have rocket. Tried darky for like a day or two. Now I am on Checkrom. Never had any problem with any of them.
It is always recommended to do a back up of all your apps and data with something like titanium and do a complete wipe before installing any new rom.
I personally use CWM for installing new roms. I am guessing that you have rooted your phone?
Could you let me know the best ROM to use which gives me very good theme and good battery life.

Xperia X8 wi-fi not working(JB Mini Project)

Hello guys,
I am brand new here,as after 3 years of owning a X8 i decided to jump to other ROM,because i was bored of the simple design of his menu and i was so frustrated to stay back with android market when my friends had messenger for facebook e.g.,i had to refresh again and again my opera..and much more apps and games i would like to play.So,i decided to start searching for new ROMs,and i found MIUI,but i wasnt able to find a stable version to dl for my phone.Then i found JB Mini Project,I succeeded on installing it on X8 but there is one thing that wont work in every version of JB i have tried!THE WI-FI!It is really frustrating for me!I am so begginner to those things,but i understand that its not only me that will have this problem and that developers might be working on it right now(I am 3D designer and i know about beta versions of things,even I have to release again and again my creation because of a bug),but i really hope someone had this problem too and found a fix on it..I tried a fix i found in forums with Titanium Backup,but nothing...
Anyone knows anything..just help me out with this.:crying:
Thanks in advance guys!:cyclops:

What wifi problem do you have? Unable to detect Adhoc connection?
Have You tried this Kernel + Rom ? (All JB rom is unable to scan adhoc wifi. Except if you make changes to the source and compile it yourself)
If you want to surf the internet but with not using wifi and using a cable, This is a Post for you.
use back stock ROM (just kidding

Maybe the rom + kernel combination is wrong or the rom is just being buggy.
I just personally liked nAa's work because he release a stable version of every product.
If you want to change into the recommended rom that I just told you;
1. Flash the latest kernel (06)
2. Follow instruction on the kernel post. (/system wipe at recovery before flashing a rom & etc)
3. Flash the rom. Followed by the GAPPS
4. As it said, this is my recommendation steps. I do not guarantee your satisfactory

Why do You wanna do that? Moving back to 4.1.2 and risking Sudden Death Syndrome with initial version of firmware is not recommended at all.
You had OTA update. You don't need to dowgrade your software. Download Sony Update Service and reflash your phone with latest available 4.2.2 for Your region.
Or, if You are more advanced user, download latest FTF and flash it yourself. But, I recommend Sony Update Service.
NOTE: Backup everything before flashing. That is a must.
the reason is going slower the device and battery drain faster.
its not way to do that?
to go back to 4.1.2?

No, it is a reason to flash clean version of the firmware a.k.a. factory reset with newest firmware.
I have latest firmware, and battery have little better autonomy, but UI is faster, more responsive and lag-free. Try this first.
Again, do the backup before. Contacts, SMS, photos... But not system settings and any stuff like that. You will adjust it again after flashing.
We have already fixed 4.2.2 update i guess you are on ..423 frimware
If yes and you feel the phone slow. Then flash latest firmware. 244
This is Central Europe customization
Unbranded, no bloatware just few apps like officesuite mcae fee.. They can be uninstalled

Maybe he doesn't know how to use Flashtool.
i ask if i can go back to 4.1.2 not flash 4.2.2
i know how to use flashtool dude.
its safe to do that?
its anyone here to know this phone release stock firmware?its 4.1.2?or older?
i am on 4.2.2 firmware.
Again, You have to do factory restore. Do it with latest 4.2.2. Try it. If it's still defective as you say it is, You must RMA it.
4.1.2 is not better than 4.2.2. I don't believe that You are the only person in this forum who's phone suffers from 4.2.2 upgrade.
Do the factory clean install of newest firmware. If it is not good still, Your phone is no good.
its ok i do this....!!!!!
why you say the phone is not good?
i make factory reset now...
It may be defective in some way. Latest 4.2.2 have to work on Xperia Z like buttery smooth. Especially after factory reset.

s5 rom to s3
Hy. Y flashed the rom on my i9305 and y had to reflash and then only I made the camera work flashing boefla.ok. but. Screen mirroring doesn't work apps to sd card the same and neither samsung link wont work. Are you trying to fix these? The rom is good. I have no complaints other that sometimes its eating the battery in5 hours. Thank's
S5 Elite for S3 (i9305) problem.
Greetings,
Today I was charging my S3 (i9305) and turned off the power. I later discovered that my phone was still on even though I had turned it off. I found out that when charging my phone with the power off it rebooted my phone. I don't know if it's a problem with the Rom or phone. Help would be appreciated. (I have attached a picture of what my phone gets stuck on before it reboots). Thanks.

Hi,
Im not sure but maybe this is the old bootloader issue..are you on new or old bootloader? and have you installed agni kernel that comes by default with the rom? cause i thought that the reboot issue only was present in the boeffla kernels for this rom, which i have removed from the rom thread some time ago, because they were not stable.
It is definately not a rom problem, cause im using this rom every day (btw im on new 4.4.4 bootloader) and i didnt had any reboots from the 1st day till this time also not with the 4.3 bootloader, using Agni kernel 4.9 everything works fine, even offline charging works, but from this we already knew that offline charging was working well on new bootloader.

It must be the Bootloader then, since I have already installed Agni v4.9. Would you be able to send me the link to the right Bootloader for the i9305. Thanks Maho.

Well the case is that the bootloader is not something you can find separately and flash it for example like a flashable zip, the only way to update the bootloader is by flashing 4.3 or 4.4.4 official firmware from sammobile.com or any other site where you can download samsung official firmwares, and it has the KNOX feature included which really sucks, therefore these bootloaders are also called KNOX bootloader. You can check what bootloader you have at the moment by booting into downloadmode and in left upper corner of the downloadmode screen if there is a line saying ´´KNOX WARRANTY VOID´´ means you already have the new knox bootloader and since the new Android 4.4.4 now there is also a line in blue color saying ´´SECURE DOWNLOAD : ENABLED'' which is the case with me.
If you like to update the bootloader you can do that, in my signature there is a link to ODIN guide, also there is a link in the guide for if you want to learn more about knox bootloader before you do anything, cause when you flash 4.3 or 4.4.4 official firmware the knox bootloader will remain forever with the device, its not something you can delete like an .apk file, the bootloader is part of the device structure.
This knox bootloader seems to cause problems with installing custom roms or applying root etc. (not for everyone though) but im now KNOXED for some time and never had actually any kind of problem installing custom roms or rooting etc. besides that i think that our i9305 is now getting old and 4.4.4 is probably the last official update to come from Samsung, so it doesnt really matter to be knoxed or not knoxed at this time IMHO and most of the people dont care anymore about warranty being void, but if you like to avoid such small issues like device rebooting by itself or any other issue caused by the old bootloader with 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 custom roms, i recommend everyone to update the bootloader if you plan to run 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 custom roms as daily driver.
If you are still not sure about this or you dont understand something, you can always look for more info in the general Q&A thread or just do some research on the internet.
Cheers
Thank you

Hey man sorry for late reply.
I think wifi direct isnt working then, for the audio skipping i think its related to your kernel settings, try other governors for example. I dont have this issue, music playing fine with me.

Most stable ROM recomended for an old person

Hi E1 owners!
I bought an E1 for my mother about a year ago. I updated it with the latest 4.4 OTA and installed a few apps and disabled a few others (basically she uses it for Whatsapp, email and to take/share pictures). The phone seemed to work smoothly the days I used it (apart from a ramdom reboot).
Now my mom complains that everything is very slow and things don't work (god knows what stuff she might have installed ) so she will send it by post (I live very far) and I will clean it.
My question is if it is worth to install a ROM like CyanogenMod or the most stable is the stock KK? I was thinking to root it and remoave all the useless apps to make some space bacause it ran out of space rather fast even moving as much as possible to the sdcard.
Thanks for the help!

Stock ROM is a nightmare
You can install a modded Stock ROM from XDA, like Cheetah, Illuminated, and KillaMade
As far as I can remember those are bloatwareless
Also, If the BL can be unlocked install Caio's kernel, It can increase performance
