Apps not working after update to 6.0

[GeyerA]

Hi, I flashed the generic 6.0 (from here http://xperiafirmware.com/8-firmware/126-sony-xperia-z5-compact-e5823) and experience a few issues.

1. Fingerprint unlock does not work when I lock the screen with Wigetsoid - worked for me on 5.1.1); It unlocks but I still need to key-in the PIN.

2. SManager filemanager does not have the the permission to access the internal storage - worked for me on 5.1.1)

3. Servestream music streaming does not work (also flawlessly worked on 5.1.1)

However, the ROM is really fluid and responsive. BTW, did a clean flash with flashtool. Any comments or hints how to solve my problems are welcome. If I can't fix, I need to revert to 5.1.1

have you contacted the developers of those apps? are they optimised to run on marshmallow? support for flashed roms are limited here, you should try asking at XDA forums

Hi,

yes, this is the logical next step however I think it is strange that all somehow stopped working at the same time. I compiled AOSP 6.0 for my Z3 tablet compact and will try if these errors also show up. I might have missed some wipe operation during flashing (flashtool) ...

Dear all,

just a quick update on the progress. I re-installed 5.1.1 but got the upgrade to 6.0 right after the reboot process had finished. Long story short - still did not get fingerprint unlock together with widgesoid screen-off button to work. Servestream works now; I made a mistake restoring an old backup where the streams were outdated. SManager still does not have the right permissions 😞

Anyhow, 6.0 is much snappier than 5.1.1 (in my opinion) so will stick to this 🙂
