It shouldn't though. There custom ROMs which work on the TX (Android 4.4.4) and that don't come with Sony's bloated OS/Apps.
Then it's time i suppose to start theming an AOSP rom :victory:

Tilal is planning to bring android L for our devices when it will be released, so let's see which aosp he will choose...

Sure.
Comliled with O3 flags as well, means its much more smooth than any stock rom.
I will include a complete Z2 framework port, as well as all AOSP apps either themed to look like Sony ones or replaced with original Z2 ports.
However, performance and stability have maximum priority for me, so I will only add bugfree Xperia apps and retain ART compatibility.
Working around 90 hours on this project now, but now there are only two more apps to be themed and I'll release it.
You'll like it guys
EDIT: Check next page for some screenshots
Check these images to get a taste of what is about to come.
Lets change to custom rom.
Sent from my LT25i using XDA Free mobile app
We have custom roms with KitKat, and soon to be modified acquiring Sony interface, but is only themed
They are not the original flavor of Sony Kitkat Roms
But is it, to have nothing
I am very sad really
And to think that my Xperia neo has the true interface from Xperia Z2 with KitKat ....

I was telling that for months, but i was an asshole etc etc for some people for posting it.

Xperia V, but I might also port it over to XT and TX if any dev provides a clean Omni base.

good work bro.... can i expect the z2 lockscreen and sony smart camera and other stuff which feels like a stock kk rom ?

This camera stuff will bloat the rom unnecessarily and break ART compatibility in addition. I'll not include it by default, nor any of the other "nice to have" apps like Sketch etc.
You may however flash any of the ported Z2 stuff that runs on other AOSP roms (there are enough flashable zips around)..
I will then include an index in my rom thread with working media app packages (based on user reports) and let all of you choose what they want.. Performance or a little more stock rom feeling.
And about Z2 lockscreen.. Tried it, but it seems to be incompatible with Omni. If there is enough interest in my rom I'll put more time into this project.
Might even try to add Z2 SmallApps and taskswitcher. :good:

Hi,
Sorry novice question but, is it possible to install some of the stock Sony Apps onto a custom ROM such as CyanogenMod? I am running CyanogenMod at the moment and I love it, fast, stable, and without much battery drain. I would love to be able to use the Sony stock camera though.
Is it possible, like installing Gapps, but Sapps?
Thanks
Hi,
apps from Sony "usually" need SONY's own framework. Sadly, the framework itself is not opensourced and cannot be used on other roms.
This is the reply you would usually get when asking other rom developers. Sadly, its true tho.

Many of the apps ARE ported, but they are contained within custom roms. To be honest not that much extra functionality is added with the newer versions.
Finally quite a few Sony apps have been modded so that they'll work on phones from any manufacturer - I see no reason why they couldn't be installed on the SP.

Hi,
i have a Xperia Z1 with non-unlockable Bootloader. I just love AOSP-Roms but those Roms are just for UB. But can someone make a AOSP-Rom for LB? I think many Users would love that...
Please post questions in the Q&A section,
Thread moved
And to answer your question. No, it needs an unlocked bootloader as AOSP roms require a different kernel to the stock Sony one.
Just to add to the above answer: no, the kernel is different so therefore since you cannot flash a custom kernel on LB, you won't be able to use AOSP.
I think he means use Sony kernel but try port aosp to sonys firmware
And why it work for xperia sp?

Well i can see that all of that "features" can be made only with root access and Xposed framework modules, and few mods.
Deep in framework, rom is still close to sony stock rom.
For example, everything you can make with apps or mods, except OTA update (for pac), and CM themes.
Everything else is pretty much on google play, and some mods on XDA.
If you want pure AOSP feel, you need to unlock bootloader, this is, how to say, kang version of PAC.
If you say me how to get the flip settings from AOSP on 4.4.4 i would be happy
There is an xposed mod for it

Considering the fact that Android 5.0 was released just a week ago--No. We'll have to wait.
Considering the fact that XSP is not officially supported by Sony for software updates--Hell No. We'll have to wait even longer for a port. Hopefully CyanogenMod brings salvation!
Good day and God bless!
Hit thanks if it helped!

I have tried many things on my xperia sp to make it look like Android L..
Like Nova Launcher, it have slideup animation when u open App
It even have that balloon animation of app drawer..
The button like android L, still i want android L.
I want Project Volt
I wouldn't expect L any time soon, UBL have a much better chance of getting it as they have Kernel choices but even then they need to get it working with our hardware. LBL people are probably out of luck but theres a tiny glimmer of hope that it can be built.
PA + Herathon theme + Nova launcher is what im making do with until then.
