Android L for honami - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
I have looked for one but has anyone found a Rom that is being developed on android L yet?

No,
At least no on XDA

Fingers crossed it doesn't take long! I'm dying to try it out

I wouldn't even expect it.
Android L currently is an unstable build already. Creating a ROM out of that would not make sense as it's probably even less stable than it already is. That, and it doesn't make sense anyway to make a ROM from a beta firmware that's supposed to be either updated soon or released as stable build, as the next Android version. When that version (Android Lollipop or whatever) comes out, then you can expect ROMs.
On an unrelated note: I cannot wait for the next Android version
Porting from the Z2 if it arrives there first shouldn't be much of a problem - I love how similar the Z1 is to the Z2!

Xperia Z1- MIUI???

Hey Guys i have been tracking the development of Xperia Z1 for the past 3 months and there doesn't seem to be any MIUI based ROM around here...Does Xperia Z1 has any official developer or still anyone didn't get involved in MIUI Rom development?? I am willing to know this becoz i love the MIUI Roms... So, is there any chance of Xperia Z1 getting a MIUI roms soon??
Thanks for your reply in Advance.
that im not sure
miui devs are being quiet and unofficial ports (from devs known of) are also being quiet
i dont think Z1 will get much miui based roms

I had a look at miui for the Z-Ultra, to port at the moment (v5) you really need a stable 10.1? cm build to port with, and for theZU there's not one. Things might change when there is a 4.4 miui base to port

Since Sony has announced a stock rom on lollipop for ZR, I doubt anybody would waste their time finding an outside lollipop source to compile on. We probably have to wait for official rom to kickstart the community, since it will be specific for our device tree.
Lollipop
how much time to make a custom Lollipop like AOSP relased Lollipop for Z,Z1,Z3 ...
The Z already has one - though not nearly stable or functional enough for daily driver status.
As for us - I don't think we'll get one. Sony has not released device binaries for our device, which means building it ourselves (i.e. non-devs) is out of the question. The yuga's AOSP Lollipop build is unstable, and many vital things don't work, which makes porting it practically useless (even if we knew how). Our best hope is for a custom ROM team to release it for the yuga and port it over, which we would need a dev to do - and even then it probably wouldn't work, at least for a while. Alx31TLse would probably be the one best qualified for this, as he's ported several ROMs from yuga for us. However, for the same reason, he will probably be too busy to do so.
We will probably get the official L update halfway through next year or so. If you want it sooner, you could try porting it from the Z1/2/3 when they get it; I think there's a guide somewhere for that, though I think that was for the Z. For AOSP, your best hope is that they will release the binaries for the ZR.
Note: I am not entirely certain about the necessity of Sony-supplied binaries. I write this based on what I remember from reading their AOSP page a few weeks ago. If someone can correct/clarify/enlighten me on this, I'd be grateful.
Jan 2015, android 5.0 lollipop will be in our ZR, hopefully :fingers-crossed:
I think the FXP team would be the ones to build the first lollipop rom for ZR. CM12 should be out by nov end, and the FXP team would probably take 2 weeks to port a nightly. Let's keep our fingers crossed :cyclops:

That is a BIIIG stretch; even the Z1/2 probably won't get it by then, going by previous update patterns. The wait will probably take even longer, since Sony will have to figure out how to meld their own skin and Material Design, which are very different from each other. That's probably why they're giving the GPE Z Ultra the update before the proper flagships - it's basically stock, so they don't have to modify it.
Don't get me wrong, I want L just as bad as you do; I just don't want to get my hopes up just to have them crushed.
Lollipop
Why AoSP Team didn't making d lollipop for Zr ...??

[Q] Miui 6 port with android 5.1.1

Is there a possibility MIUI 6, which is available to public now, could that be ported over to HTC One M7 along with android 5.1.1?
As there is no 5.1.1 for the m7 out side of aosp based roms I really don't see this happening. Best you will get is one maybe ported for 5.0.1. Also not many people use that here so your better off on the miui site.
With the current firmware HTC provided for 5.0.2, can that work on CM12.1 with 5.1.1, how did they manage to make our firmware work?

Marshmallow Rom

Hey guys,
Google promised that our Android one devices would get marshmallow early but they haven't given us that. I request the developers to make a lollipop based custom rom for us Android one users.

AOSP sources haven't been released yet. Devs cannot make a ROM without the sources.

For official update we have to wait a while.
First in line are nexus devices.
In my opinion the official update will come in 3-4 weeks.
Marshmallow for sprout4, sparkle v, canvas a1, spice dream uno have been already relaeased check it here http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/how-manual...ta-update-android-one-sprout4-devices-1522817

Is it possible for me to manually port Miui 7 (LP) edition to the xperia Z1?

i have been waiting for miui 7 lollipop edition for the xperia z1 for the longest. now i dont know how to really build kernels be i can somewhat port roms.
i see that select xiaomi phones have a lollipop version of Miui v7 and i would love to get my hands on it. now i ask, is remotely possible to do this? i assume so but no one has taken the time to do it?
not to mention that our current miui v7 can work on stock kernel with a locked bootloader. now im not asking all that but i would like to get this project underway

Miui is proted using patchrom which currently supports only kitkat at the moment, someone suggested on one thread in the miui forum that lollipop might be skipped and patchrom for MM will be released, purely speculation of course but just like any OEM these guys are slow at releasing updates.

I don't think they will make a patch rom for mm. If they wanted to they would have been done so.
Also do I have to use patch ROM? I want to do it manually. Perhaps I'll port one thing at a time. Trial and error.
~xperia Z1~
Well I'm a little hard headed so out of boredom and free time I'll slowly port and read debug for errors and dependencies starting with the home launcher, then system settings etc
~xperia Z1~
take a look at this, its been done. someone has miui v7.1 on a non miui phone.
theres a way i guess.
http://www.gizdev.com/rom-miui-7-1-global-stable-with-swap-patch-rom-for-lenovo-a7000/
what if we ported that rom (or any rom in gereral) itself from that lenovo-a7000 to the xperia Z1?
