Not yet. I bet Cyanogen will be the first 4.3 Rom for ZL. Just wait a few days after the sources are available.

Aosp has already been updated to 4.3 for the zl. Build was released but had some major issues, kernel was not updated tho, this will probably fix these issues. So probably in the next few days. Again, aosp.

Damn, I would have bet my house that cm is first...

AOSP is only 1 updated but has issues. CM can't be compiled right now. Errors for some import file missing. BTW guys we are working on 4.3 PAC ROM. Any new ROMs u like to see, pm me and I will do my best to port it to zl . let's make zl have more development than z

It's not important to have more development, but maybe instead we get BETTER development.
It's a pity that I don't understand anything about github, compiling and so on. I'd like to give something back to this community, but I can't...

not so fast~~~

[HOT] Xperia T Jellybean firmware leaked by DoomLord [porting discussion thread]

Hey guys,
As the title says we have a leaked Jellybean firmware
I'm already starting to port features to our Xperia S, I'll post the things I've ported in themes section
The post is right here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36788563#post36788563
The leaked firmware is meant for developer devices so I cannot guarantee that I can port everything properly!!
Please post the most desired things that you want here, so the other thread can be used for problems with the ported stuff itself
Please also thank Doomlord here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36785957&postcount=1
Hoping for the xs build port soon

I think I will port the whole Rom to Xperia ion and then S, I will use CM10 as base, but maybe if krappabel did it it would be better as he have much better experience than me, anyway maybe we could team up? Please PM if you are interested

It will be good if you keep all the applications and features, it loses interest when people remove the apps because it takes too much space or because its useless, that will make a completed rom goog!
Might be an obvious question, with an obvious answer, but will this enable devs to get the official Sony camera working on JB ROMs?

[Q] No custom ROMS on ZL????

hey guys!!!
i am keen to get a ZL soon.. and hell yes i prefer the ZL over s4 or HTC One.. but i just checked out the forum & noticed that not major development has taken place yet.. be it custom ROMs or MODs.. wherein Z's forum is full of it.. that puts me one step back.. will ZL get less development than Z??? I would really want to stick with a phone which happens to be modded & developed... Its strange to know that ROMS for Z & ZL would be different as both of them are practically the same phone apart from the outer curvature & 2-3 tiny features... any takers to explain this to me??
Also battery life means a lot to me.. wanna know from the users as to how is the battery performing.. I am on HTC OneX at the moment & the only think i dont like about this phone is the battery life... need ur input guys!!! pls help!!
The ZL hasn't been made available globally as the Z did, so give it some time for it to pick up in popularity. The Z had an entire month head start on the market, and the ZL was only available two weeks ago.
Would some devs care to chip in as to whether developing for the ZL is any different than developing for the Z?
AW: [Q] No custom ROMS on ZL????
I think most dev will code for Z, because that is the advertised flagship. Nevertheless I hope that Mods and Roms can easily be ported from Z to ZL.
There is a first Cyanogen Port, although the ZL isn't released yet in many parts of the world. Samsung maybe won't get it years after release.
And you don't need 238 different ROMs, you just need one that fits!
If someone would help get me started I'd make a Rom for the ZL. I made a stripped down and buildprop changes Rom on the Samsung mesmerise which is the cdma version of the galaxy s back in early 2011. But I'm not sure where to start now :/

I'm in. The only thing that really needed on ZL is voltage control because the phone gets quite warm during prolonged operation. I don't like it. I see DooMLorD making custom kernel for the Z and I hope he will make one for ZL as well. But since he is busy with life that may take some time...

So what's wrong with sony stock? Performance? Functionality missing? Or just flash-addicted...?

There is nothing wrong with stock ROM. Only thing is we need more customisation like voltage control and such. Stock Xperia Launcher suffers from lags from time to time. I just use stock 4.2 Jelly Bean launcher and works much better than Xperia Launcher in terms of smoothness and responsiveness

Basically flash addicted
one more thing is customization like
status toggle bar options
black theme especially navigation bar
small on screen buttons which is really annoying as accual screen size is less than 4.8 or something
camera tweaks etc etc...

Why don't you give CM or AOKP a go? I know the camera is non functional as of now, but asking the dev again and again is not going to get you anything. He has his personal life to take care of too.

[Q] LiquidSmooth & AndroidParanoid ROMS?

I've only seen Cyanogen and AOKP mods in this forum,how about something special?
Other than Cyanogen Mod and AOKP Mod, how about LiquidSmooth, Android Paranoid and Xylon mod for Sony Xperia ZL?

The problem is the very limited availability of the ZL across countries. I really dont understand this move by Sony. Shouldn't they be releasing both the Z and the ZL in every possible place to increase sales? That and a steamrolling ad campaign is how Samsung has managed to be more ubiquitous than Apple. Now they have dedicated places in Best Buys!! Sony is either plain stupid, or just plain stupid
I have PAC ROM working on my Zl 6506. I need to test and will possibly release soon.

This is my first Sony phone. I need to make sure I totally test before even thinking of releasing. It's going to have the same bugs as CM. So no camera yet.
Is this the part where you offer your services as a beta tester?

I am willing to TOFTT :good:
Sign me up
To be honest, I'm new to Android phones. But I'm willing to tryout the beta version as a BETA tester and I rarely use camera also.

Is a new update 10.3.1.A.2.74 coming?

It seems like a new update is coming to XZ. It may land on ZL as well in few days. It seems like a very minor update.
Check it out:

I just want Sony to concentrate their efforts in 4.4, its great that they keep updating 4.2.... Very welcomed in my opinion.

No, I welcomed that security fix is still alive in 4.2, I just want Sony to put 85% to future updates like the upcoming 4.4 Kitkat and the rest 15% in 4.2

Good, i hope this update fix the heat problem from the 2.67 version
Xperia blog mentioned the update listed on ptcrb . i checked myself for ZL but its not listed for ZL so i dont think it will come to ZL...also .307 update was skipped for ZL and directly 4.2.2 as seeded for ZL before Z...m crossing my fingers for 4.3 for ZL incase sony repeats history....
