i think it's not possible....or rather, it will be very hard to port.
the chipset, architecture, gpu, etc is mostly different. most Sony Ericsson's use a scorpion-qualcomm-adreno combination.
for individual apps, i have ported the timescape, xperia events, SE panorama beta, many widgets and also modded the arc launcher to look in line with ICS theme.
have a half working port of FB inside xperia 2.0
BTW, there is a "wannabe arc" ROM in the dev section check out the NOA ROM by diederick at the dev forum.

Looks nice, sadly it's running on Android, so as that isn't yet working on the Blackstone, chances of this being ported a possibly quite slim I actually prefer the look of thise to the upcoming 'Sense' UI on the Hero
Its not Android that's interesting, its the Today plugin "Rachel" from Xperia and "Sense" from Hero.. If only we could get this as a TouchFlo3D way for the Blackstone's Today Screen, that would be excellent...
its running on android so not yet for blackstone.
damnn this is beautifull..... so smoothhh
wow thats well nice! would be cool if we could get it or something similar
Agreeeeee! :d
still not ported to HTC HD?
Would need to have Andriod working on HD first before this could be possible
Do you know if its working on Sony E. X1?

The Magic Word is ANDROID: it works ONLY on ANDROID!!! So NO ANDROID NO this UI

Just wondering if there has been a way to use timescape that the Xperia x10 uses for android. Timescape is a widget that streams facebook and twitter on your homescreen and it has a unique look to it. Anyone know any information about this???
Anything???

It's an Ericsson phone, not HTC.
Hi All,
I've been switching roms since I got my Z (bundled with a BE Proximus contract for 1€, yeay) but so far I keep reverting back to the stock ROM.
There are still some issues with most CM based ROMS (eg. audio bug when switching to speakerphone) and I really like the Sony camera app for it's image quality and speedy burst mode.
On the other hand: the DPI size of the UI is terrible, the app icons are soo huge and there's no way to customize how big you want things to appear on this amazing 1920x1080 screen. I tried with the xposed framework to set custom dpi's as seen in the Paranoid rom / PAC rom, but the original launcher can't handle this properly: it sticks to 4 column grid and positions things completely wrong. Also the lockscreen sliders are not scaled as well, the Phone app looks messed up, in short, it looks terrible as soon as you want any of the Sony apps to be using a different dpi. You can adjust other apps like Gmail or the Play store though.
Since Sony released an AOSP project for the Xperia Tablet Z as well, I wonder if it would be possible to use the official firmware for the Xperia Tablet Z on the Xperia Z.
Has anyone any ideas how to investigate this? I'm definitely willing to spend some time on this one, I'd love to see my phone's amazing screen being used as a Tablet Z whilst still using the same camera and other Sony optimizations.
Kind regards,
Erik
Xperia Z has it's own official AOSP project http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2297927
Lots if things don't work though due to closed source proprietary drivers and there's not really much Sony can do about that.
Ok, I understand that the AOSP projects are far from finished. So my question should be then: is it possible to install a FTF file for the Xperia Tablet Z on the Xperia Z? So we could have the Xperia Tablet Z features on the Xperia Z?
Kind regards,
Erik
No, if flashtool allows flashing it at best it wouldn't boot, at worst it would brick your XZ. Which features specifically do you want from the XTZ?
hi guys ive come from an xperia z and zeroinfinty has taken car of all the sound mods from there but is they a working x-reality/bravia mod that we can flash manually?
ive noticed there is a few roms with it baked in but im on a rom without it and would love to have it installed
thanks
Hi,
Take a look here (but I don't know if the Xreality works really)...: Xperia Honami i1 pack ( X-Reality-Album-Walkman-Movie-Keyboard).
Otherwise in the Android Software and Hacking General or Android Software Development there are some Bravia/Xreality mod's, search for Bravia for example. I have not tested these mods...
But do we really need these kinds of mods with our awesome screens, at least if it works?

resolution matters not the hardware. for example i can port roms from xperia neo to one v because same resolution 400x800 but i can't port roms from sony xperia live walkman. although both xperia neo and live walkman have snapdragon s2 processor. And for porting roms require BASE rom first then you can port. porting will have some nor the other issue. you can try porting from nexus 4. but you might have issues like camera,wifi,bluetooth. but sometimes you can be successful too..

oh..thx
Actually resolution doesn't matter in some cases. It all depends on how the ROM and its app handle different resolutions. ROM like CM should support different resolution nicely already. And some Xperia apps like phone app runs fine in both Z (1080p) and ZR (720p). But some system apps are designed to run on a specific resolution only, like most HTC apps, then you must choose those of exact resolution to use.

......I tested the framework mod from XZ..its works properly
maybe its only some apps does not work on 720P..
I'm very keen to look into this too as I would love to see Paranoid Android on this phone, hope someone is already porting it. I just started reading on how to port so am not sure my success rate. *cross fingers*
better to start with ZL roms
there is some tutorial about this on xda,search
