[Q] Android L - Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is the Z1C going to receive this new android version? I know that it depends on Sony and developers to do the work when the development kit is available, but still, it would be great If the Z1C received this update.

Nobody is making upcoming 5.0 for XS btw many @ googleplex might be readying it for the next nexus i'd suggest you start learning compiling and debugging aosp roms while you wait so that when 5.0 finally arrives you don't have to stat a thread like this if nobody else shows interest

Keep in mind that my Xperia X10 was left on gingerbread by Sony (and AT&T stopped at 2.1 eclair). Now the 3 year old phone has run past Ice cream sandwich and Has very nice daily use jelly bean roms.
All thanks to the great XDA developers. Some of them still have/use the device as main phone and a few develop as a 2nd phone.
From my Xperia LT28at ION
I believe developers will do custom ROM for 5.0. After SONY drop jelly bean for Arc S still there are developer supporting the device.

Xperia ZL 4.3/4.4

Sony Mobile has just confirmed that it plans to update ten Xperia handsets to Android 4.3 Jelly Bean from December 2013 onwards. The handsets on the list includes the Xperia Z series (Z, ZL, ZR, Z Ultra, Z1 and Tablet Z) along with the Xperia SP. It also confirmed that a number of older handsets will also get Android 4.3 including the Xperia T, Xperia TX and Xperia V.
A number of recent lower-end handsets have not made the list at all though, including the Xperia L, Xperia M and Xperia C. The Xperia L and Xperia M should be able to handle the upgrade, so maybe Sony has decided not to update these handsets given their positioning. This would be a shame though especially since they only launched within the last six months. The Xperia C has limited availability so we can understand if that was left off due to commercial reasons. We’ll keep you posted as the countdown to the Android 4.3 update commences.

Saw this today also, great news......... 4.4 will also be coming to the Z series also ......
Why they didn't just update directly to 4.4 and skip 4.3? It will make more sense.

Hope to get Z ultra like white UI and and x-Reality for mobile and also other goodies like social camera for Z1...fingers crossed

How's the performance of the eXistenZ ROM and Kernal? Does it improve the ZL's battery life?

LG updates

Hi guys
I have question how is the update policy of LG? I am a note 4 user but Samsungs update policy made me think to change my phone and it will probably be a G4,before that I want to know how LG treates it's phones for example the G3 their previous flagship
Coming from the G2, I am very impressed. We got several updates and even got Lollipop before the G3 got updated. They are really good on past phones. Everything is sort of in a stalemate rigjt now because of the Android M. No sense in updating anything when Android M is the finalised version of lollipop.
Could be better tbh, they update Korean version very fast which include major fixes 2 months ago, and only 2 weeks ago people started receiving those.
Aside from google, all other take their time, LG won't release any new android besides Android M on G4.
Thank you for your answers

How to get Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow?

How to get Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow?
If you want official Sony firmware you have to change your phone to Z3 at least. Z1 compact was dropped and will never get any new version.

If there is no Android M then this is my last phone from Sony. I mean, this is ****. State of the art device two years ago and EOLed already. They must be kidding us.
In my opinion Sony is actually one of the best. But i agree. it's kind of sad that we can't have Sony marshmallow firmware for this great device. It is'nt even close being outdated yet.

Android "O" or "P" Development possibilities for Sony Xperia M dual?

Android "O" or "P" Development possibilities for Sony Xperia M dual?
Hello developers around XDA...
I am currently using Ressurection Remix Final nougat 7.1.2 build in sony xperia m dual (C2004). The performance is good for daily task but since its release there has not been updates released by them. In mean time, google had released its new build ( Android "O" and "P"). i haven't seen any developer is working for this build for sony xperia m dual may be developers are not interested to do so. but there are people who are still using this device in the era of dual camera smartphones and building a new android "o" or "p" based rom could be challenging for developers to get performance equivalent to this device. I am very much excited to have those rom and do like to test it to increase its performance and stability. Hope to hear positive approach:good:.
Android P is out of the question because Sony Xperia M doesn't support even unofficially treble. About Android O if any dev feels like porting one, it will also be non-treble and hopefully without bugs.
