Android 8 Oreo per Sony Xperia Z3: Download e installazione!

Era ora che arrivasse e, beh, eccolo qui: Android 8 Oreo su Sony Xperia Z3 è ora realtà (sia per l’edizione single SIM che per la Dual SIM!). Ne avevo annunciato l’arrivo giusto qualche giorno fa ed è ora di installarla.

Android 8 su Z3? Possibile?

Sembra di si e non solo: il sistema gira anche più velocemente di Nougat (che già di per sé gira meglio di Marshmallow). Ovviamente al momento in cui sto scrivendo, si tratta di una versione in sviluppo, una DEVPREVIEW, che però è già ad ottimo punto. Vi consiglio vivamente di provarla.

L’edizione 18/10 include i seguenti elementi non funzionanti [AGGIORNATO 21/03/2018]:

• Video recording (funziona grazie all’ultima build del 20/03/2018 ma con qualche difettuccio)
• HW Encryption

tutto il resto va che è una meraviglia! Ecco alcuni screenshot:

Con gli screenshot qui in alto (fatto dal mio telefono) potete notare alcune peculiarità del sistema, come la barra delle notifiche modificata, le impostazioni differenziate da Nougat e le info sistema nell’ultimo a destra.

Dove la trovo e come la installo?

Andate a questo indirizzo per informazioni e Download. Per installarla, potete semplicemente seguire la mia guida completa su come installare Android 7 su Z3 (con 8 è uguale).

Ovviamente, in questo caso, scaricate le Gapps per Android 8 (quindi in recovery dovete solamente flashare la ROM e le gapps, dimenticate gli altri file). Partite dal punto 6 della guida.

In caso di problemi, vi proporrò un metodo alternativo per installarla.

P.S.: Questa ROM è solo l’inizio di una serie di ROM Android 8 per Sony Xperia Z3. Sembra ne arriveranno altre, tra cui una Carbon ROM, una OMNIROM ed anche una splendida Resurrection Remix.

Potete scaricarla anche da qui.

POST Personalizzativo “Supremo”

Il gentile utente TjNiko, sul forum di XDA, ha proposto delle personalizzazioni geniali che personalmente sto utilizzando su questa OMNIROM e devo dire che ha migliorato le performance della batteria (e della fluidità) ancor più del normale. Vi posto il contenuto in originale (inglese, non mi odierete, vero?):

For the following steps u need Kernel Auditor, HEBF(herth empty battery full)
Open Kernel audiutor and change according to these:
CPU: CPU-Boost Intervall 0ms, Input-Intervall/boost 0ms, Sync-frequency Deactivated, Input Cpu frequency boost Deactivated.
(those settings will trade some perfomance(not much in any way against more relaxing behavior and battery savings )[ !!!!! If u dont want any slowdowns in perfomance then dont apply these or test them out only temporary!!!!].
I/O shedular: Internal: Shedular bfq, readahead 128kb, Shedular advanced settings(might get called Settings-Timeplan) back_seek_max 0, back_seek _penalty 1.
External: Shedular row.
(We let internal memory to work better to the current processes wich will give us highter writting and read speads on things that are open, minimize readahead there to stop wasting time by reading more then it needs and tell BFQ to not waste time it will work as an advanced version of CFQ.)
Virtual Memory: Dirty-ratio 80, Dirty_background_ratio 20, swappiness 30, Zram Memory 200MB.
(real magic to the phone. it will keep more data in ram and will speedup most games even he is gona write out things out to keep it still in a nice state. this can ipmrove overall perfomance of the phone and reduce outwrittings of dirty data, incase u need something again u might experience some nice improovement. Greatings to L2Revolution and vainglory.)
Dont forget to switch the options to apply on boot else they get lost if u restart the device.
Due to a bug within Kernel Auduitor u need to restart ur device after these settings else Mp-Decision will go wild.

The above tweks will let ur phone to real try making saving everywhere while it will also improve managment of ur ram. Now Lowmemorykiller can do its thing better and u will see improvements almost everywhere. next we go open HEBF just for 2 options while the second one is totaly optional.
HEBF
straight to Internet tweaks there disable Toggle IPv6. this should resolve the current bug with some games suddenly disconect if u want to play them while u are on wifi.
OPTIONAL. u want to get some free boost by let ur phone compile the **** out of the apps? nice! Head to advanced Options(need to be jack norris user. u can do that while u setting up the app or by change userlevel in settings.) tap on ART Compiler Filter. a Error message should great u telling u that these settings were not detected on ur device(huh?) tap on ENABLE. There set both to SPEED. on 8.1 this setting equals everything. atlest thats what 8.1 documentations tells about that. After this ur device needs to be rebooted and it will take some time couse it will recompile ur apps. This setting trades some space on system and give u a massive boost across the board.(some users claimed the device is not taking longer and settings had no effect on them on 8.1.)

when u had rebooted and u are nice then we can proceed.
Open Kernel Auditor again. This is the time we gona apply some dirty buildproptweaks. most of them are to improve perfomance, and behavior of the apps by uplifting some limitations. Care if u typo or set these settings highter then i state them ur phone might refuse to boot.
Open the buildprop editor and search for the values if they are not present then add them.
dalvik.vm.heaptargetutilization=0.9 (uplifting the given ram usage for the apps default is 0.75 means its inly gave 75% of the ram the apps requested that can lead into highter garbage collection and thus slowdown ur lovely games. set this over 0.90 (90%) might leave ur phone unbootable)
debug.sf.hw=1
debug.composition.type=mdp
ro.sf.compbypass.enable=0
(these should enable mdp as compositor and should improve ur graphics and perfomance, if somehow dont like it then change debug.composition type to gpu (more powerfull but it will eat ur battery like a shark) or C2D(default one).

these tweaks should help the z3 to climb over his adge as much as its possible without a costume kernel(wich we will never get if we dont find a kernel modder). Hope u enjoy it and thank this post write a review. If it works for everyone nailyk might put these values into a future release.
Have fun. TjNiko
