I know we just got 4.4.4, but anyway, anyone knows if we will get L update? also when can we expect cm L, or any other ported L rom? Not a serious question, just for fun if anyone knows. They say all devices from 2013 and 2014 will get L. But they still sell our phone in the store. So are we eligable for L or not
we won't get official L update, but as soon as cm12 (?) will be official, someone will port it
a month or two, we'll get there :fingers-crossed:

Hey guys
So Android Lollipop got announced. Looks awesome and beautiful.
And I see even the Moto E is getting the Lollipop update....SO I was just wondering , maybe ,just maybe it might be possible that a Lollipop ROM could be possibly developed? Fingers crossed !!
yeah it's possible but not in the coming days or even weeks
final android lollipop will be released in the 3rd of November with nexus 6 and nexus 9 then if we are so lucky, someone will port it to our device after weeks or maybe months, then maybe we will see official releases from cm, pa and slim.
but if you are talking about a stock lollipop rom from samsung... sure you are kidding
Some news?
I guess you've completely missed this thread then....?

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 ...??
Android has launched android M TP on nexus phones can anyone make aosp rom to mi3.
If it is possible !!!!!!
Now I am running android 5.1.1 aosp by Ivan
Can someone give the features of android M ??
Thank you!!!!
Learn what your talking about first. They released a developer preview. It is not a complete rom and none of the source is released. You will have to wait until the winter or maybe linger.
Huh, Android M is just announced, and it is just a preview build only for developers to adapt their apps for the new OS. The usable version will be released in around October or November. The devs can port android to us only after that.
The source of M has not been released yet. So there won't be any M based rom for now.
Go to Android Police website, they post lots of M features in recent articles.
We have to wait the official release by Google... I hope they fixed the battery consumption
Has anyone tried building this yet?

Could this mean we get an official AOSPA build for the Z, when Android M lands?
That binaries aren't for XZ. Z have only Kitkat binaries published, so we need to wait for official Android 6 rollout with source
Yeah I realised that some of the reports I'd read were false listing the Z, so annoying as I was going to build it on my linux box at work.
Someone told Android M 6.0 is'nt supported for XZ.
I'm not really familiar with building ROM's but isn't it possible to make a port of the ROM Google uploaded for it's nexus devices?
Nope, it's not possible. Android 6 release date is 29 september, so we can wait this 2 weeks to start anything with new candy
