Are just rumors

Pretty rumours, they might be true, atleast a part of it.
Low-end nexus devices would be awsome. I dont need a phone worth €500.

[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...

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.

Camera on Jb rooms

i need your experince guys wich JB rom had the best camera around on the xperia S fourm ?!
is there any one with stock camera ! i know its impossible since there is no jb source for it

The camera is the same on all actual JB ROMs, AFAIK. It will be better with Sony's JB.

[Discussion] : do you want Firefox OS on xperia s?

As the title said, do you want Firefox OS, on sxs?
Sony released the kernel(Linux 3.0.8) and system source of firefoxOS for xperia e , so porting should be possible
What do you think?

Porting isn't possible. It's impossible to port kernel from device which has different SoC. We have dual-core when E has single core.

You read it wrong. Only the system is from xperia e. The kernel will be using xperia s kernel. And since Firefox os uses Linux kernel, I think it can be ported.

ooh.. you just dont want to say that you're wrong right? j/k.
well, the devs have source for xperia s kernel (the 3.0.8 one, from Sony, and/or cm10 kernel from fxp and others), and there is source from firefox os too. and you know, there is ubuntu touch for xperia s in the development thread right? it can be done, so why this (firefox os) is impossible?
still, i dont know for sure though, as im not a dev or anything. just using my logics

The kernel is very similar (90-95%) to the stock sony kernel , but it has firefox os patch and xperia E Soc(msm7227a) drivers .... I'll only include all the xperia s drivers and adapt the rom to xperia s hardware ... It's a dirty way , but I need first to get it booting , and next we can improve and fix it.

Yes.

It will be useless i think, you will loose your time to do it.
We already have too many great roms, what are working really good, and i think (that's my opinion) we do not need firefox os.

if its work why not
its always nice to have another new things
if you want any help pm me

It would be nice to try FirefoxOS on our phone

Firefox OS would be amazing! I heard rumors that they use the same drivers from Android. Would anyone have a clue where to begin?

FirefoxOs share a lot of part of the HAL from android.
We have to begin from the kernel, after we get it boot, lets start adapt the rom
Sent from my LT26i using xda app-developers app

It would be nice to try it out - it's always nice to have options to choose from. That being said, i doubt Firefox OS will catch on because even Ubuntu Phone OS will have wider audience and a bigger usage base.

The look and feel of Xperia Z2 on older devices

I was wondering if there was a way i could get the Z2 features and apps on my Xperia S(rooted/running 4.4.2 custom rom)
I tried aroma installer but the Z2 apps/launcher are not working

Or are you guys using a CM10 based ROM to port 4.3/4.4 apps and features? I'm very curious indeed

I assume it's going to be very hard to create the drivers to run official firmwares on our old Scorpion devices.. But very interesting. I'm still surprised there is a chance to receive a "Semi-official" 4.3/4.4 updates.
Sorry if I'm being inconvenient, but what is left to completely port it?

Well im working on messing with blichen97s aosp kernel and tornado007 is working on the display drivers, for the port
Porting CM is easy, porting aosp harder, porting preconfigured OS's is very hard because you have to deal with crap spesific for that device

We have a tester but more testers means more ground covered
I think Tornado007s 4.4 may be out in a few weeks to a month
Envi-OS is my own linux OS
It contains unique features like ultraboot RFMM
Main features:
UltraBoot
Drops boot time from 2 seconds to less than 0.5 (on xperia s)(boot records :0.1 seconds , on xperia s)
RFMM (ram file merge mount)
Allows you to expand your ram through mountable files on your storage (upto 128gb)
Krynik Home environment
A home environment that includes a phone,phablet,tablet and desktop mode, default to phone in xperia s but you can use desktop mode
Krynik engine
In phone(phablet and tablet mode too) mode desktop only programs can run in phone mode the engine makes programms act like Sony small apps a little bit
Envi-OS isnt public but in a few weeks ill put the website up and release an alpha build
The plan for the os is to unify or make your devices more useful or easy to use
Ill screenshot My OS if i remember to

4.4 port is tough.. We need to build display drivers from scratch which is a huge burden.. I am although trying to contact pro devs and get help.. I am not a genius who can write 10000 lines of code without help.. Although willing to give it a try.. Don't get any hopes up just yet.. Its still unsure that such a kernel can be built to make the official 4.4 from XZ1c to work on our device.. I may need a dev like niaboc or bilchen to make such kernel.. If i were u, i would not get my hopes up..

I figured it was going to be difficult... I wish I could help but I still have zero knowledge of programming languages. I Wonder if it is really possible to create such kernel even with help from pro devs like DooMLord.. I still have hopes but at the end of the year I'll be retiring this Xperia S, so anything until there is welcome!
