Super slow phone; Need help downgrading from 7.1.1 - Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Everyone!
Just like most other Z5C users, my phone is running terribly slow. I just "upgraded" to 7.1.1 a couple days ago in hopes that it would fix how laggy it is, but it's still the same performance issues. I'll be listening to music and all of a sudden it stops, I can't take pics with my camera, app icons take forever to show up on homescreen, everything I switch between cache reloads, etc. I'm done with it.
I want to downgrade to 7.0, since it was the last stable upgrade I can recall. (Unless there's another solution to improving my phone's performance)
However, I have no knowledge of how to downgrade. I'm a total noob. Many of the youtube videos I've found are of terrible quality or are difficult to understand or require that I have my phone rooted.
I'd prefer to leave my phone unrooted. I guess I just need a link to the correct resources I need and has all the steps, then I can figure it out from there. OR if there's a better route to kicking my phone into the shape it should be in.
PS. Got a screenshot attached to show my phone's performance. It's currently using 1.7GB and has 38MB of free memory.

Mine works fine, 7.1.1. In my experience, it performs the same as 7.0 and even sometimes suppresses 7.0.
You will need to download XperiFirm and Flashtool first.
You can follow this tut to create ftf from the files you download: http://www.xperiablog.net/2014/08/1...re-files-using-xperifirm-and-flashtool-guide/
Note that you do not need to decrypt files since XperiFirm does that for you. You just need to create bundle from those files.
Also this tut: http://www.xperiablog.net/2016/03/12/install-xperia-marshmallow-using-flashtool-and-xperifirm-guide/ here teach you how to flash firmware you create.

Do a full clean install. Or try to flash a sound mod, maybe that can help.

[Q] New Indian firmware.. V10C

A new official LG India firmware has been launched, V10C. it's on android 2.2.1 and gets 31fps on neocore. So I guess it's the same as the V10E that people are describing.
The SD card still behaves weirdly, not sure about unmounting since I've not made any calls. Overall, the system has become noticeably slower. Would it be safe to roll back to V10B using the KDZ updater?

Yes, you are right. It's hard to even root the handset.

Try the optimus prime-v2, its fast and will meet your requirements. SD card problem is rare in it and the entire firmware sits on SD card, so you get a lot of free memory.
Not dev thread.
Moving to general.
Cheers
Ok I tested it out.. this firmware is quite horrible and it did not fix anything and the phone has become really slow in every way. I'm reverting to V10B for now, no choice. Hope all goes well.
I have strange problem after upgrading my p500 to v10c. it stopped notify me for any incoming calls. even vibration is not working in the silent mode. But the called number listed as missed call. pls somebody throw some light on this issue.
How to downgrade from v10c to v10b?
Sluggish and useless
Seemed like LG rushed this update. The device becomes too slow and sluggish. Upgraded and downgraded after 2 hours. Rooting through conventional means is broken.
Not upgrading. My P500 works fine at the moment with the older Firmware.
Any idea how to remove the crap apps they have pre-installed ?

Root and remove unneeded apk(s) and their corresponding odex files from /system/app using any root supported file browser like root explorer. Before doing this you might want to clear data. To cleanup left over odex files also remove from /data/dalvik-cache. You can cleanup this entire directory, but you would have to reboot for odex files to be re-created.

hi, I bought this phone two days back. I want to ask that if I follow your guide to remove some crap applications, and then if in future I do a factory reset, will it create any problem?

I couldn't figure out how to install that. The optimus prime post is not very clear about the steps.. it seems to be linking to other posts which aren't too clear themselves..
I am still on V10b, so do you guys strictly suggest not to upgrade to V10c?
Almost everything is fine for me with the current version, apart from one one strange problem..
The bulk SMS received do not get grouped properly. Bulk SMS 'from name' are usually in the format XX-XXXXX, now what happens is.. if the number of characters in the 'from name' of sms after '-' are same (whatever be the name), they are grouped together in the same thread.
This happens only with bulk sms which has name in above mentioned format, all other sms are grouped properly. Also, this happens in every sms application i have tried including the default one.
Hope i was able to explain it properly. Anyone else facing the same issue?

Do you have the zip file of the ROM that you put on your phone? If so, you can edit the zip file using 7zip (find the apps folder) and flash that, making sure that the signature verify is turned off. This is how I used to do it on my phone, but have recently updated to using 4Ext and still finding my way around this app, but it's got app removal built in (I think).
Hope this helps :good:

Not at all, we all have to start somewhere. I'm not particularly technical myself so I will try and help as much as I can.
When you say you have rooted your phone, have you also install a custom ROM on your phone as well? To do this, you should have had a zip file that you used to flash the ROM to the phone.
I would create a copy of the ZIP file, in case you go wrong. Open up the ZIP file using 7zip (or something similar, I suggested this one as I know you can delete files from the zip file, but some other programs won't do this).
You show see two folders, click on system and then click on the app folder. You need to be careful in what you delete as it might force the phone to crash out (hence make a copy of the ZIP file, and have both of them on your phone). Simply delete the apps you don't want and then save and flash the ROM on your phone (you will need to turn off signature verify for it to work, but I'm not sure where there will be in your menu's as I don't know what recovery you are using, it's normally under "other").
Does this make anything more clearer?
If not, please explain exactly what you have done in terms of rooting and flashing a ROM.
:good:

In order to understand what it is that you want to archive, could you please tell me why you rooted your phone?
I ask as, unless you have a copy of the stock ROM, once you have flashed a ROM, you won't be able to go back to the original ROM. If you are happy to go ahead, I suggest you look around for ROM's that will work on your phone. Depending on what you want from a ROM (small size, quick loading or lots of gadgets and tweaks), you should be able to find one already working to how you would like. Some ROM's do not have any Google apps or YouTube and only have basic apps to run the phone (I had a ROM call Redux that was like this), other ROM's have many features (I've had a ROM called MIUI that was like this). If you find a ROM you like, it is better to leave the apps as they are.
I can try and help you with how to flash the ROM if you get stuck, but I did not use the superoneclick way.
As I said first, why do you want to remove apps?

If you find a custom ROM you like (I would try it first before deleting apps), then I would hold off downloading 7zip as you may not need it if you like the ROM as it is :good:

Hmmmmmm, there are other things you could try if you are having issues with your phone.
I have an app called Autostarts and you can stop apps from booting when the phone is restarted or when other things happen (like a change in signal).
I also have another app called Battery Mix which is very good at finding out what apps are running and draining the battery or taking up CPU usage.
I also have another app called Quick System Info which you can set up so that when you click end tasks, it only ends tasks that you've selected (you put them on a supervise list), which is very handy if you have things like 3G monitoring or clocks that might crash if you kill them.
Maybe you need to root the phone in a different way. Try reading this

I know someone who has tried a method similar to yours and had issues, whereas I've rooted and even s-off (I have a HTC desire and s-off (sense off) is a security feature on that.

Android 6 for LG-P712?

Hello, community! I was wondering if there's any Android 6 rom for LG Optimus L7 II (P712). I was told that CyanogenMod supports through CM13 a lot of LG devices but P712. But I decided to give it a shot anyway and I will share my experience with you.
I took the risk yesterday and I installed CM13 on my cel phone. The installation process was perfect (I used ClockworkMod Recovery), I also installed Gapps perfectly. I rebooted my device and it loaded and updated all the apps (it took like 10 minutes). After that, I had to setup my wifi network, google account, etc. Everything was good so far, but then, when the menues loaded my camera and radio fm weren't shown. The rest of the apps were right there and it recognized my wifi and mobile service provider like a charm (I called and texted myself from another phone). But... after a couple of minutes a pop-up started to show up saying "Unfortunately, Android keyboard (AOSP) has stopped" and since there, it was a nightmare haha. I couldn't access to my keyboard at all. I understand it's an issue with CyanogenMod and they are trying to fix it.
But after that situation, I decided to flash my device using "Flash Tools 2014" and Android 4.4. If any of you know about another rom with android 6, please let me know. Thanks in advance!
What gapps was used,and which cm13 build?Seems P712 is all like my P713,and on mine i got no lags(excepting camera app,just needs to install another camera and delete stock one).

Hi DS_katauri, thanks for your reply. About gapps, I tried to install different packages (mini, full, nano, stock), I downloaded them from opengapps. But it seems many people are reporting issues like the one I had. Btw, the rom I used was the "cm-13.0-20160330-UNOFFICIAL-vee7-RC2" (I'm a new user so I can't attach links... I downloaded it from androidfilehost, the user who uploaded it has useful things there). Thanks again, for your reply!!

Yep,Neutrondev made a lot of pretty things for our LG.
About ROM,try this one(latest build from Weritos) ,use version for 713 and gapps provided.IDK will CWM work,if no use Neutrondev's TWRP 3.020.Also,gapps should be installed after ROM but before 1st start.Lags are - built-in camera(use snap hdr and delete stock camera and gallery via root),wifi(sometimes connects only manual),no function on qmemo button(not critical at all)...And a specific feature - no internal card only SDcard I'm using it now(actually writing from it).Only three apps make me angry,katemobile(russian vk.com social network alternative client) - can stuck phone(idk why),viber v5x or v6x(both can FC in unknown reason,v4x all okay),and Opera4android(chinese idiots forget the "clean cache" button).
Oh,and launcher,Nova still remains the best.
Good luck and don't forget to backup your current ROM to SD.
Hi DS_katauri, thanks for your reply and all the info you shared with me. Unfortunately, it didn't work on my smartphone. Yesterday, I installed the rom and gapps by Weritos but the camera didn't work at all, it kept asking me for my sd-card (even after I formatted it). For the same reason, I couldn't download photos, take screenshots or anything. And I couldn't install whatsapp because it wasn't compatible with my device anymore, so I had to give up. Thanks anyway for all your help!!

I told U to try snap camera,then play with settings to allow writing on sd(this stuff makes me mad too)Also,opencamera and first version of CyanogenCamera should work too.And,whatsapp,install it not from market.

Review on the basis of 36 hrs use.
First impression I don't find any major difference in daily use but few bugs which use to bother are almost gone.
1. Fingerprint sensor response time reduced and more accurate.
2. Camera is more responsive but focus error is still on.
3. Battery same as before . All depends on usage but I am finding charging time is increased than before. Fast charger seems now regular.
4. Games are more responsive and touch seems very sensitive than before.
5. Screen contrasts are enhanced but this causing drain battery.
6.sound quality and noise cancellation is improved while we do outgoing calls.
7. Not having Jio sim so not sure about band added.
8. GPS accuracy is as good as before nothing compromised.
9. Third party apps working fine. I am not using xposed so no comments.
10. Browser experience seems improved, pages load fast on crome browser.
Cheers,
Hope lot more to come.

WIFI works fine for me and no disconnect on 16S
Wifi is wokring fine for me
Camera focus and images are much improved, especially moving objects are getting captured a little better
Battery life seems to be improved in comparison to stock 15S with same number of extra apps installed
Also just to add, I have clean installed the rom after fully wiping the system.
The data was encrypted, so wiped the data partition and rooted the rom. Everything is working fine. No bugs identified till now, using since last three days.
I just reinstalled but with Chinese 16s... Now everything works flawless again... Dont know what the matter was...
Hi

Nope, is not preinstalled, but it is as easy as installing other apks.

You can configure your smartphone as individual as you want.. nice thing

Can't be disabled I believe.
I took backup of everything and then booted into TWRP and formated data partition.
After formatting data, without restarting the device, connected to pc and copied the su file and rooted.

I've got to say that battery life is definite better than with 15s.

When data is encrypted PC will not show it in TWRP/recovery mode.
I started the phone normally and took backup first.
Then booted into TWRP
-wipe - >formatted the data partition
- then i selected mount option -> enable MTP
then i was able to see the phone connected on PC
Go to mount and enable mtp

Hello I have a question. I want to install the official rom but I actually work with the resurrection rom and unofficial recovery. Can I flash the 16s official with that recovery without brick my phone?

Storage Access problem and weird behavior after OOS3 update with new bootloader

I don't know if others are facing the similar problem but it has turned my life into hell after the new update. I will list down the issues on ALL ROMS after the new OOS 3 update with bootloader in my device.
I had issue in accessing storage, which means gallery, file explorer or literally any app crashes when I try to access from the storage, be it internal or external sd card.
Couldn't use the latest snapchat at all, can't post in story, can't save any snap, can't upload from camera roll. It was just a dead end. However I could only post into story with a older Snapchat version, still due to storage access issue, I couldn't save or upload from Camera Roll
Facebook picture upload would ocassionally crash the app.
Couldn't take more than 1 picture in latest youcam app, storage issue would crash the app.
Gallery apps fail to generate thumbnail previews.
All these above problems caused permanent storage access unavailability until I rebooted device.
Need to charge my device twice as Battery runs faster than Usain Bolt.
So finally after a lot of tingling, I finally downgraded my device to OOS 2.1.3 with TWRP 2.8.7. Trust me it's very stable, bug free and battery friendly. Though I miss the new security patches features and snappy feel from Android 6 & 7.
The above problems are not happening in 2.1.3. I can use latest snapchat, youcam & facebook without any issue at all. Is there any way to prevent these issues on new Android OS in my device ? I believe it's not a device issue as 2.1.3 is running very stable and bug less.
Never had any of those issues on OOS 3 update. Think you might of gone wrong somewhere maybe.

I am really eager to find that out. I have almost tried every ROM on the new bootloader. Except MOOS 2.0 or something, each and every ROM had this bug, even official OOS 3.1.4. Any idea what might went wrong ? The bugs are not reproducing in OOS 2.1.3 though. Which makes me believe that my device is ok.

Think I figured it out for you. You are on really old OOS2 build you need to flash 2.2.3 before you update to OOS3. It was made for the update to MM.
Are you sure you gave the good permission. On MM, when you first launch an app, it should ask you for it. Maybe a bug appear at one point.
You should go to menu settings / app / 3 dots menu at the top right an reset app prefs.
Then re open app one by one.
You can try first without your SD inside to see if it happens again.
