Xperia XZ1 Compact lilac & GSIs

A few more details

  • I’ve tried using most of the apps and everything seems to work pretty much as expected.
  • An exception is the Ebay app, which causes MicroG to crash when the Ebay app starts up. This issue was first reported last year in this post. I tried the recently (June) posted workaround but no joy. This app has been working fine for me on other devices: on z5c suzuran (nougat unofficial build) and z3c (pie - test build) e-0.9-p-2020072464361-test-z3c.zip. I did not have to apply a workaround on these devices. The only difference I can see is a small difference in the MicroG version number 0.2.10.19420-77 (68c4e0d) on the working versions, 0.2.10.19420-74 (2e3ec1d) on this non-working one. These two versions were released 3 days apart in October 2019 - see https://github.com/microg/android_packages_apps_GmsCore/tags. The diffs are here It might be worth pulling the later one into your build.
  • I installed the latest (updated yesterday) LineageOS 17.1 Unofficial Build on my slightly broken testbed phone and it is all working fine
  • I also tried phh’s AOSP Vanilla Q GSI system-quack-arm64-aonly-vanilla.img again on both devices. It’s still boot-looping

Now I’m stopping for a couple of days holiday, when I hope to use the daily driver - particularly the OS Maos and OsmAnd+ apps - while walking and running in the Lake District. I’ll report back :slight_smile:
