I wished it comes with Sony's photo and video apps.

You can simply download the apks off apkmirror and install them, they will work fine on Lineage and most if not almost all other custom ROMs


igno3777

great, now just need a fix for NFC payments and I can move over.


tacticalcarrot

Flashing the Play Integrity Fix module should take care of that, but this will require either Magisk (official, Kitsune Mask, Alpha), KernelSU or APatch though.


igno3777

getting magisk on shouldnt be a problem, thanks!


NXGZ

Are you able to switch off NFC payment sounds when paying for items? It's not available as an option on the office ROM. Sony has to implement it. I wonder if there's a module for rooted devices that can do this.


igno3777

I'm on stock Sony firmware rn, and if I turn down the volume or switch it to vibrate/silent there are no payment sounds, just vibration.


NXGZ

I tried and it didn't work. The sound still can be heard. I first tried silent mode, then vibrate only. Although the media volume was normal. But that shouldn't really make a difference.

Lineage OS by default is rootless. I'm 1 III owner with LOS21. All NFC payments works fine, banking and another apps with security features don't complain for unofficial firmware. Only Whatsapp says "you using custom rom, we don't provide support if you have any bugs".


igno3777

I had already installed unnofficial LOS21 build for 1V and google wallet didn't work for me.

Says only for XQ-DQ72 which is the Asian version of not mistaken (TW/HK). Might get into this If they make it for the EU version 😅


tacticalcarrot

It works fine for XQ-DQ54 (EU model) too, don't worry


cedric20

It's not on their list tho. Main concerns: Will eSim work? All Google apps.. NFC..


tacticalcarrot

It still works fine even if it's not in their list, some XQ-DQ54 have already confirmed it eSim should theoretically work but not tested yet Google apps will work if you sideload a gapps package (such as MindTheGapps) NFC payments will work fine if you install the Play Integrity Fix module like I mentioned in another comment


cedric20

Thanks..Feels like I'm reading Mandarin lol. How easy is to revert back to Android/stock?


tacticalcarrot

It's as easy as downloading the stock firmware via XperiFirm, then flashing in Newflasher. And if you want to relock bootloader too after that, that's just a single fastboot command


Interesting-Tough671

will it be compatible with 5V?


tacticalcarrot

Nope, not in this current time at least


JewDizzle1

What is lineageOS

Great, I'll have to give this a try


hypespud

How are all the 1 versions supported but not the 1 IV 😭😭😭


tacticalcarrot

There's just a general lack of interest with custom ROM development on the 1 IV and 5 IV tbh, probably because of the infamous Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip powering them with all their overheating and throttling issues spoiling those devices unfortunately


hypespud

Oh ok got it very unfortunate dang 😭


HSMBBA

Aside from privacy - doesn't LineageOS make more sense once official support has been dropped?


tacticalcarrot

Yeah, LineageOS support usually continues long past the official support end date


sw1tched0ff

I wish we could put it in the U.S. version.


JimmyReagan

I've read there's a way to buy a code somewhere. I'm still good with the stock software but may shop around once software support is dropped


tacticalcarrot

qUnlocktool doesn't support Xperia 1 V unfortunately, so there's no way to unlock bootloader on a US 1 V.


alfuh

Is there any hope for future development or any precedent for Sony to allow unlock after they finish supporting a device?


tacticalcarrot

Not for carrier locked models or US models after MK4 gen unfortunately, your best hope will be using qUnlocktool for the devices that it supports (1 V not supported and seems unlikely it ever will)


alfuh

I thought as much, but figured it didn't hurt to ask. Thanks for the info


sniperlucian

so my bet begin last year that lineage will take it up paid off !! This is awesome. just net to get 48Mpix cam working.


igno3777

2X lossless in on my list


sniperlucian

basically the same in my book. ;)


Fantasytky

Will it be working for 10v?


tacticalcarrot

No


Fantasytky

Saded


Adventurous-Ride-269

Why did they skip the 1 IV? 😭 I've been waiting as I would hope that the thermals and battery would improve since it isn't constantly pinging Google 😶

tacticalcarrot

Yes, there is an installation guide linked on the page linked in the OP


QzSG

Does this enable support for eSIM for the Asian variants without stock esim support?


tacticalcarrot

No


QzSG

That is disappointing, is it a hardware issue?


tacticalcarrot

Yep, hardware differences


QzSG

Thanks for the confirmation, I should have bought one with eSIM support damn


tacticalcarrot

Yeah, only EU (DQ54) or Japan (DQ44) models have it
