ive taken the liberty of requesting the mokee team to port the rom over to the qualcomm E4+ model. i know we have a partially working lineage so that should help them. id just love to see development happen. especially when most devs are now working on oero roms. please take the time to request or like my post on the mokee teams google plus page. :good:

Thank you for your contribution!
i've built a CM13 using your device tree and vendor repos, and i mentioned you in here,

and hope you will do more awesome work on our device
thanks.
@TheStrix bro i saw you have this device too, maybe you can kindly help us to get more ROM running on our beloved Mi Max,

Great to have you back! :good:
I've been saying many times here you were and now I am happy to say you are the only real developer for Mi Max so far. You deserve all the credit for CM based custom ROMs since day one. Everybody else was just using your work and porting without fixing a single bug. Couple of guys here fixed most of the bugs you didn't have a chance to fix before you left the development.
I am planning to get involved in the development soon as well and I will be using your sources and fixes as we go. So yeah you definitely will deserve and get credit... Let's get Mi Max CM official so more devs get involved...
Please excuse me if I some time missed to give you the credit for your work specifically by name but part of that fault is yours too... You are not much active here and most of the people don't recognize your name so I had to refer you as the "first guy"...
Welcome back and be more active here please... We need more good developers like you... :good:

He has Mi Max? That's encouraging... I hope we'll have him too... He will bring a lot of knowledge and experience...
I was actually thinking of donating dev phone to some of those kenzo guys so we can get Mi Max sources up to date fast...
I had no idea you were the one but it's good to see you here. Like nijel said hopefully we can have some Nougat love soon. Much credit to you for what you've done with the device already and in the future.
Work in helium?
@chaubeyprateek @karthick mostwanted

Hey there! I'm working on GZR ROMs (Tesla, Validus and Tipsy) for our device. For now it's unofficial but I'm in touch with the GZR team and it could become official eventually. I need testers and thread maintainers who like these ROMs and are willing to help. They just have to use the ROM and report to me, create threads in devs-base and XDA, reproduce bugs, etc. The first Tesla build is already available with everything working except video recording, which should be fixed soon. If you are interested, even if you've never tried these ROMs, please get in touch with me and I'll give you the link for you to have a taste. You'll love them! Thanks!
Dear developers,
first of all I would like to thank you all for your great work and keeping our Sony Xperia ZR alive.
A few weeks ago I came across the terrific project maru os. So far it only exist for a few devices but it looks very promising. It literally turns the phone into a desktop PC while having android and Linux running on it.
I am not a programmer myself and sadly are not able to offer any help but it would be great if somebody with the skills and experience would feel encouraged to port maru os to the ZR. As far as I know the ZR is capable of mhl and therefore would be a great candidate for maru os.
At the moment somebody is working on the sony Xperia z3. Maybe it could be helpful for the development.
As I am a new member I actually can't post links to the project page, github repository or some great YouTube videos. But I suppose a search engine of your choice will help you
Looking forward for some thoughts and ideas
What does the community think? Would Maru OS be something you would be personally interested?
I wrote a PM to Daedroza and he seemed generally interested in the project but made at the same time clear that he is at the moment occupied with lineage 14.1. He might be able to port maru os in a few months.
Happy to see some thoughts of other ZR users.
Here are some links for those interested in the project:

Enjoy! Happy watching and reading
Dear folks,
one very talented dev of Maru os is asking at the moment the community to which device he shall port next (he ported already to the G4 and HTC 10). There might be a chance that if enough ZR users upvote our device we might see it come alive.
Please show your interest in this thread:
https://groups.google.com/forum/m/#!topic/maru-os-dev/8Lzi1KnYyzI
Thanks and have a nice day
I see it is supported in official LOS builds too , and this is great .
My question is if you flash Lineage OS 14.1 ( https://download.lineageos.org/dogo ) into your Xperia ZR , does MHL cable works to display over HDMI ?
In another words , have you tested that using Lineage OS , you have image over HDMI ?

As far as I am concerned mhl is only working in the stock ROM. Another ZR user reported the non working mhl as well in the lineage 14.1 thread.
Only for your information, as this thread looks very lonely I just got in the last hour some more replies from people who are ready to test
Firstly, I Apologize in advance. I know this might sound ungrateful to those who have already built so many cutom roms for this device. But let me ask those whoever read this nonetheless.
Some of you might know Paranoid Android or better known as AOSPA. I think this ROM deserve more love for our device, with how much love developers put behind this project. Not to mention the history behind it. It doesn't mean other roms are bad or something. I've been searching for the latest build but only found the abandoned one. I don't have the knowledge or the gear to build one.
So I ask you, kindly who might read this and have the required knowledge. Would you mind take your time and check the sources of said rom? If it tickles your fancy, I would be grateful if you could build it as well. By the way, the ROM is based on CAF.
These are the sources of said ROM

Thank you.
I don't understand
Have you looked at the Telegram group? A lot of development seems to bypass xda these days. That slightly worries me as the ROMs are all unofficial and I'm always worried what might get added - surprising we don't get ROM based malware more often. At least here reputation is long term so that seems less of a risk.

Yes, I'm up to date on telegram, that's why I ask, they are all unofficial custom roms or ports and I don't understand why no dev team works on official roms

I wish I knew - staying on MIUI until there's something official, ideally crDroid, Lineage or similar long term projects.
To avoid any errors of judgement:
Official ROM maintainers are not supposed to make changes to the source. So, they are not likely to fix any bug which is related to the source. Meanwhile, unofficial ROM maintainers are not having any restrictions. They are free to make any changes to the source to suit their needs. So, the unofficial maintainers often fix source-related bugs before the official one.

That's how I understand it, and having that level of code review in the official builds is what almost guarantees you can trust a ROM with your banking etc. I haven't actually heard of any unofficial ROM being naughty, but there's nothing to stop it.

For having used with several devices, several official or unofficial roms over several years, I have never had a problem with banking apps (for those who support them, of course).
Note that when there are no more brand updates, the developers are obliged to modify the source to continue to develop the rom.
XDA is a trustworthy source, for others I don't know.
And following that explanation...why are there other low-priced xiaomi models and also old models that have many official roms here on xda? I am very concerned that we have many unofficial aosp roms on telegram and here on xda absolutely none. Why do the devs of this model never publish on xda and other xiaomi models do? That doesn't give me confidence and I still don't understand
