Android N tweakable (hackable) for Z3c? - Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know most people are just now getting used to MM and the latest Concept beta, but I'm wondering if that Android N release for the Z3 can be tweaked or hacked to install on a Z3 compact. Don't both models run on the same hw?

O.K., thanks. I don't need to be fooling around with yet another ROM release, anyway. I'm glad the temptation isn't there.

4.2.2 would be a nice starting point, before anyone worries about 5.0

Sony should bring 5.0 to XZ, only if something goes wrong or hardware requirements would be too high, but I doubt they will cancel it
Well, i run smooth jellybean on my single core 600mhz 256mb ram X10Mini Sony usually release 3 big updates for flagships. XS started with GB and Sony stated that the update will be on late march. Back to my mini, it started with 1.6 Donut, got official update till 2.1 since its not flagship. We have 6 different Android version ROMs for mini, which means that since Mini wasnt cutting edge spec even at the first release, it handles 6 android version, XZ is a cutting edge phone, which i believe it may be able to handle 10 android versions with custom roms.

There's not much difference between 4.1 and 4.3 to be honest, so you might as well just stick with stock 4.1 if you don't like the aesthetics of custom roms.

[UPDATE][DEV][WIP] CyanogenMod 12 BETA

Hey guys, since I installed CM11 on my Xperia V I got a little interested in CM12, so I'm getting their CM12 branch to try to start building CM12 for Xperia V(MAYBE T), but I don't know is it any worth it? CM12 is coming in less than a month, the code is/optimization is not yet stable. I see a lot of devices getting the taste of Lollipop, so I guess I can do something in my free time, I have abandoned developing for a while, when my Xperia X8 died and I don't have a lot of time to do so, but what are your thoughts on this? ^
This is not a promise or anything like that, I said I'll MAYBE do it, I'm currently checking the branch!
UPDATE: So since a lot devices are getting homebuilt CM12 or CM12 Beta I thought I should make one for Xperia V, wish me luck and lets hope I don't get a lot of errors :silly:
UPDATE 2: Here I am with a new update It's going good and also bad, the developing is going good, but I kinda messed up(don't hate me for that) ^_^ since I'm building on VirtualBox i placed VHDD on a wrong partition and messed up syncing the source code, so I have to go over, but this time I'll take my laptop to university library since they have super fast internet and i'll be back on track in few days!
UPDATE 3: Guys VirtualBox is giving me a lot of problems, I'm considering to Dual-Boot windows and ubuntu or reinstall VBox, which would mean starting all over, sadly
I'll keep you updated
UPDATE 4: I decided to start all over, since it didn't do go well as I expected and everything went to ballsack so yeah, sorry to inform you, but starting all over :/
FINAL UPDATE: I have compiled a build for V, but the kernel wasn't good so it messed the phone up, anyway,WhiteNeo made a Bootable CM12(kudos) so check out his thread. This means I will not be building CM12 anymore, but help WhiteNeo if i possibly can.
AGAIN, I'm not promising anything! :good:
Nice of you to think about doing it, but for me personally, I'll wait for a daily driver.

That's what I'm thinking also, I mean I can make something, but for no particular reason, because it's coming out in a month and a little more stable version in two or so. I guess I can devote myself to it only if they don't officially release it, but let's all hope that's not gonna happen!

I am waiting for your rply
I would like you to continue with this work
friend what you are doing may be the best thing that could happen to my xperia x8 what happens is that and expected Cyanogenmod ROM android lollipop and say they do not support my device but looking at your post that you are planning to make this rom wanted that you followed up with that device so either you have to work the bugs but wi-fi
postscript
Shinto so much for the death of your XPERIA X8 device I would feel badly without my terminal x8

Kernel Developers for Xperia SP 4.4 Stock?

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

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...

CM12 is great, but I miss Xposed.

Since Xposed is only compatible with ARM7 phones on Lollipop I think I will flash the latest stock again which is 4.4.2 for my klte. With Xprivacy there is no problem with security I guess? BubbleUPNP has a module for Xposed that lets me stream audio from phone to Chromecast for apps without Chromecast support.

Real happy for you, but... what's the point of this post. We know that Xposed doesn't work (is in alpha stage) on lollipop and we also know the module's function. I don't get why you've made this thread in the first place
Understand. Got the phone yesterday, and was eager to write something I guess.

Imho 4.4.2 is better than lollipop for now. Most mods here aren't updated for lollipop plus xposed is working there and everything is black instead of the ugly white in 5.0. I got my S5 at the end of January and am real happy with it. Not a single problem so far Check my signature to see which is the latest ROM for the G900F. I also highly recommend you to try the kernel I'm on, it's awesome!

Thank you so much. Will be fun to try it out. Knew Xposed supported Lollipop, but had no idea that it was only for ARM7 devices until yesterday That doesn't matter now that I know how bad it performs in Lollipop. I prefer the GUI in KitKat over Lollipop. It's too polished in Lollipop., and I dislike white too. Great to learn that it's a great phone. So far I love it too.
Spent many hours yesterday to get it working with Windows, figuring out how to root and install rescue and trying out roms. Takes some time to getting into it when getting a new phone, and I don't miss the Sony Xperia Acro S.
If you get stuck in bootloop while reverting back to kitkat, flash kitkat modem and baseband and then try flashing the ROM itself. But i think with Odin you just flash PDA (AP) and that's it. Took me a week until i had my phone completely the way i want it xD

Thank you for the help. I have installed 4.4.2 with Odin already, and it went fine luckily. Got the rom from Sammobiles.
Great toy this with so many options. Not used to that with my former phone. Will be fun.
Is the 09.21.14 kernel better than the latest?

If you like to control your TV or air-conditioning and stuff with your phone's infrared blaster, then yes it's better. Latest one doesn't have IR blaster working so you can't control anything with Smart Remote. Technically, latest one built on Samsung's official sources is the 21.09.2014 one. Only issue is with the camera. Sometimes when you open it there are some weird colored lines inside and it lags. Toggling HDR on/off fixes it until you start it up again.
Thanks for the info. Running the latest and cannot connect to my WiFi with it. Got a backup of stock luckily.
I had to forsake Xposed to follow the development of CM. 4.4.2 works fine, but following the forefront of the development was hard to resist.
