Guys, please which one of the 3 ways available above (i.e. Erase/reset the modemst1 partition ; Install Pete’s ROM using TWRP-3.6.2_lillac ; or Rom4nb’s start-with-SONY’s-Android-9-ends-with-IodeOS-5) do you advise?
The Sony Xperia XZ1 I recently bought from Iodé Shopp suddently stopped seeing the SIM card on October 12. A bit like @rom4nb and @Xyguma except the date. Everything else worked fine AFAIK (here’s my original post with @petefoth kind tips just in case).
With no reaction from Iodé to my requests (e-mail, communauty, GitLab issue) other than Pete, I:
- updated to iodéOS 4.17 on WiFi → same issue.
- tried to downgrade to iodéOS 4.15 →
RECOVERY screen "Can't load Android system (...) : Try again || Factory data rest"
Please note I have no XP using TWRP and almost none tinkering with Android builds in general. Am just the average FOSS guy with a decent linux / command line background so long I’m given a mechanic keyboard. Reason why I bought it already degoogled from Iodé Shopp.
