Hi everyone,
Are there still any kernel developers present for our device?
It would be possible to have Xperia Sony SP 4.4.4 Kitkat, but we need to develop a kernel for that.
DeathZeroFx is also busy making it, but I was wondering if there are more people who are interested.

We already have many people working behind the kernel building. Sad to say, its very difficult to port it as its closed source

Hmmm...I hope you and other devs will succeed :s It would be awesome to have that kernel and thus a stock 4.4 rom

You can ask the kernel developers. If i recall there was one that was trying to do what you're doing. Its In-progress. You should look for GamerR or smtgh

Since we do have cm11(4.4.4) I don't understand what changes are needed as the base kernel would remain the same(3.4.y). Atmost it would need ramdisk changes. Drivers and blobs are @4.3 and since proprietary can't really change.

Kernel is open source what's this about porting the official 4.4 Xperia rom ?

Thanks for answering. I knew about the one of Gamer R but he seems to have abandonded the project, cause there hasn't been a post update for months...

Probably not yet. This is not flagship, not best 2013 device, young device. Maybe CM10.1 will be availible when FXP buy XSP. Or when developer show himself to community.
Why not?
It's a best possible device of the year so far. Fits the fastest processor, good amount of ram and everything else. Somebody should start working on custom ROM for this device.

Sorry to ask for this, I know I should install and test for myself the rom,
But I just would like to know how is the battery life on this rom?
What about the power button? Does it work properly? Because I had this issue on android 4.3 based rom's.
And the camera? Clear images and sharper?
Thanks in advance!
Best Regards from Brazil
By the way, in my opinion android 4.2.2 is the most stable atm

Build that we currently have ported by Demetris is 4.2.2 and for me it is the best custom rom out there.Camera and battery are great even with stock app and stock kernel.Alwayse switching between MIUI and LiquidSmooth.Flash it and test is for couple of days yourself and see if you are satisfied.
Greetings from Serbia
what bugs does it have?

It's even easier for YOU to test it yourself. Backup your current setup and flash it. Most of the mentioned bugs aren't even for everybody and it is actually quite hard for the devs to make a full list of bugs which occur for every single user.
If you don't agree with that it's your fault. The devs are doing an awesome job here and they do it because they want to.

In my honest opinion, bugs should be on the OP if they are known bugs. It's a matter of structure and information. But that's just me
From what I understood, carbon is a "fork" from Liquid and I think it's a compilation from source and not a port, right? If so, is it possible to compile Liquid from source as well ?
This question is for someone who knows or a developer

They stated that Carbon rom doesnt have anything to do with liquid team.Also if you look at title on older liquid builds by demetris you will see it says "Official" so i think it is possible to compile from source.Asked demetris long time ago about liquid future for our phone but still no answer.

No, they stated the following:
CarbonRom is an aftermarket firmware based on the Android Open Source Project. The team is composed of former members of Team Liquid who have forked the code in an attempt to bring greater speed, better coding, and full authorship to code. We are in no way affiliated with Liquid0624. The rom was forked at Liquid beta 3.2.1 and has since undergone major code changes and modifications.

They "forked" the code, although it was changed a LOT, a fork is a fork
Anyway, I'm gonna have a look later on see if Liquid can be compiled for our p880.
Thanks dimi :good:

No,THANK you man Someone sayed that all 4.2 builds are much better then 4.3 roms builds and i agree on that.
Far as I understood the source is published.
Will see what I can do during the weekend
https://github.com/LiquidSmooth/android
And yeah, I agree, I'm pretty happy with CM10. 1.3. Although I do miss the privacy features from 4.3.
Mods can lock and delete this since demerits answered our prayers and ported new version.

Sorry if its too noob question.
I was wondering, Sony have released some AOSP Sources for Xperia. Now, I was thinking, if it is possible to build one KitKat For XV/XT by modifying those, and as we already have the binary drivers from stock FTF dump.
If it is possible (not just theoretically, also practically)
I am downloading BBQ Linux now and planning to do this. Any guidelines will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Its possible, but you'll get nothing but a plain AOSP rom without custom rom features.

Thanks for assuring I don't need the Custom features, I just need to be able to run all the Sony Software (I miss CyberShot ) with KitKat on my XV
My BBQ download is finished, tonight I'm going to setup the whole thing and start Studying on this Let's hope it's not too tough for me to complete :fingers-crossed:
Wait.. CyberShot? They released the proprietary drivers? >.>

Nope, that's just a bad dream :crying:
Sony Released AOSP for XL and they gave some propitiatory binary. I Will first try to compile for XL (Planning to get my brother's set)
Try to run Cybershot for L. Then, if it works, I will try to find the same/similar binary files from my XV Stock dump and then try to build one AOSP for XV.
So far this is my plan. Even if Cybershot porting is not possible, I could learn something New, that's the real goal here
Thats always the goal. :good:
Learned a lot myself developing my rom.
Hello,
I just recently rooted my Samsung GT i9305 and completed a nandroid backup on CWM. I was wondering if I could still use the Paranoid Beta 5 ROM for Samsung GT i9305. I've tried flashing it and gave me Installation Error 7, which basically means that CWM checked the rom and wasn't the right rom for GT i9305. Is there a fix for the Error 7 or should I just get another ROM instead? Any Android L look alternatives? Hazy Rom is one but thats for GT i9300 aswell :/

This may sound naive, but why are developers having such a hard time building ROMS for the the LTE International Version of the GS3 when, compared to the i9300 model, is exactly the same (but of course we have more 1GB more RAM). All the ROMS for the i9305 model are all very dated. Kit Kat is know history, please bring Lollipop to the i9305! Loving material design by the way Good on ya Google!:good

Yeah I saw pics of PA and I was addicted! But I checked their site and the i9300 was part of their "legacy" program, maintaining Paranoid for i9300 International and US users. Therefore, I doubt they will make one for i9305 since two years is probably the ending time for OS updates, but of course its different for custom ROMS. I still hope that they do develop one though :/ But don't get your hope up.
