How difficult is it to port T roms to TX? - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

I'm curious about this as I'd prefer to get the TX with its removable battery. Do any devs have the TX or have intentions of getting one?

In theory the differences are very, very small. Once you get the hang of it you should be able to do it for every ROM with relative ease.
As to who has the TX - I don't know. Most European developers will have a T since that's the only version available in Europe. In Asia most will own a TX since (again) that's the only one available there.

[Q] Xperia T Update

will be updated Xperia T to android 4.2?
Sony havent announced anything about releasing 4.2 on xperia t. If you mean 4.1.2 then that should be delivered to your phone ota by your carrier.
Would be nice to know if they have plans to upgrade it to 4.2 .

As they have made no announcement that means they have no plans to do it.
Companies nowadays would rather have you buy a new phone after a few months than give you support for the one you already bought.
That's why custom roms and development are so important.

I can understand stand what your saying, but 4.2 is not that big a jump firmware wise, just another version of jellybean hopefully with less bugs lol.

[Q] Worth switching to Xperia ZL

I would want your opinion. Is it worth it to switch from Note 1 to Xperia ZL?
I find my Note has really slowed down since the JB update. Also the battery is really draining fast. I wanted to switch to a newer phone but S4 is really expensive as of now.
Can you also recommend anything? What about Note 2, or S3?
Thanks!

Just go with xperia ZL. And if you can somehow get to it, try the htc one. One is the first phone I tried that does not have any trace of lag whatsoever, beautiful finish, nice enough camera. As for the xperia Z and ZL, I only tested the Z and it's pretty nice but it requires a custom rom immediately :laugh:
Thanks for the info. As for the HTC One, that phone is too expensive here in my country. S4 is even cheaper than the One. I would like to just root the phone and maintain the stock rom.
Because I have been reading reviews of the Xperia ZL. I can live with the issues in viewing angles but not the poor performance of the camera. Given that Sony should be good with cameras.
Thanks.

Cheap solution-get new battery and put nice custom jb rom.
Then you can patiently wait for price s4 / htc one to drop :fingers-crossed:

Any owners of any Cave shmups in here? Question about compatibility.

This week, all Cave shmups for Android are on sale. At the moment I do not own an Android phone but I'm thinking of getting a Z in the near future. So I was wondering: can anyone here confirm that these games run ok on the Xperia Z? Because otherwise, I don't think I'll get them.
No entendí, sorry

Even though the Incredible S is a very good and sturdy phone, I would not recommend it at this time as its already past 3 years since it last launched. Do you have some sort of budget??

Hmm well I don't know how much your plan costs nor do I know how vodafone does things but it might be worth to try the S4 Mini, One Mini, or the Xperia SP. They are all pretty descent mid-range phones.

[Q][opinion]Android L on Xperia Z

people what do you think of the new Android L?
do you think we will be able to the run the dev-preview on our Z ahead of time?
have you seen that the aosp build in the presentation got a battery saver mode?
basically i could post a lot of questions but what i really wanna know is your opinion and your ideas about it. btw do you guys think as this will be a major release that we will get it from sony as well?
here is one of the sources i read about:
http://www.gsmarena.com/google_announces_andriod_l_developer_preview-news-8864.php
and of course our portal
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/a-closer-look-at-the-user-interface-changes-in-android-l/
If Sony wants to to remove the "Sony doesn't update old devices " tag they have, they need to update the original Z line (Z, ZL, ZR and Tablet Z) to it. But, as off now, no news regarding Nexus 4, which has the same processor as ours. Let's wait until Sony give us a pronouncement regarding that...

Don't expect much, the Z already got 2 updates. 4.3 and 4.4. Sony thinks their job is done now. We could just run an AOSP build once they're running.

Except for us with the Unlockable Bootloader. =/
We received 3 Android upgrades actually.
The phone shipped with 4.1.2, then we got 4.2.2, 4.3 and now 4.4.2. ?

If Sony would support our Z for the 18 months, there is a possibility that we might get it.
They really need to get rid of their "bad" image regarding updates.
Doesn't matter either way, would be nice to run it, but the fact is some of the benefits won't be there for our hardware, and most of us will be due a new phone by then.

anyone able to get the hardware requirements? @kingvortex i know it's great, it's my first flagship device i am really happy with all the updates and roms and developers and stuff.
so you guys definitely think we will be able to run android L with or without sony?
Without, I'm sure. With Sony? Maybe not so fast. System Requirements, weren't even mentioned. But it will be running on phones cheaper than the Moto E, which is already extremely cheap by itself, so I think the Xperia Z (and brothers) will handle it just fine.

Yeah, but the problem with AOSP is bad Google camera (no Sony camera ported yet) and no FM radio
Kexec is very close to complete functionality for the Z1. This will enable unlockable Xperias to run any custom kernels

Android L is said to come to Xperia Z officially.. Probably the last update.. But i think its a major upgrade in terms of UI.. Its already known that Android L's UI includes a lot of Sony APIs and CM APIs.. With LG also working along, i think it will be very good.. And 4.4.2 was a initial major upgrade from Jelly Bean fw's.. And things got well in 4.4.3.. I think Android L would be less buggy and would bring more performance and system stability because of ART only.. I think it will be a big upgrade..

But i am sure it WILL.. Coz XZ is a premium device under Z2 and ZU.. And SP too..
Android L is so freaking fast and nice, just flashed it onto my N5.
It simply has to come to the Z.

So, a guess from a random website based on what Sony did with KitKat. Previous update schedules don't affect the likelihood either way of getting newer versions of Android.

It would be great, but I have doubts that it will. HTC are talking about providing it for some of their devices 90 days after release. If Sony were to even follow such a fast schedule then it takes us well outside of the supposed 18 months of support for Android devices.
I hope they surprise us though. ?
