I have a lot of work on my hands right now with the apps I'm working on, but if I find time I would like to build Android 4.3 from the ground up using cyanogenmod and I want to know if its possible and why/why it's not possible.
Also if anyone has started to work on Android 4.3/knows how to help post here :laugh:
Also this would be my first time building a rom from the ground up so I'm the definition of a noob.

It would be possible but very difficult without help and since you said your a noob then it will be even harder for you. We couldn't even get 4.2.2 fully working. Do even if you get 4.3 you will still need a kernel for it which we don't have and you will also most likely not get Bluetooth or Wi-Fi working. If you can find someone to build a working 4.3 kernel (maybe wedgess if he has time) then maybe you could get a 4.3 dev project build going.

Also you should move this to question section as it isn't development

i agree with abdel..we dont even have 4.2.2 working..even on 4.2.1 is hard to get touchpads working well,we still have lag..im currently testing new ways to make it at least less laggy..i ve tried MC4 and each time i press touchpads is awful lag..but on DEAD TRIGGER it works good..not GB performance but very acceptable for most users..so seems unlikely we could benefit with 4.3..but we never know..by all means try it please..and thanks for your effort.
At the moment no, there are even some issues on the nexus to root android 4.3 (yeah, chainfire as started to hack it but there are still some issues), if we manage to fix properly android 4.2 it will become more possible but at the moment no

Apparently this is correct because you've creating a question thread in the Development forum...
Thread moved.

He asked about 4.3 not 4.2 and you to Oort a ROM you need a base and we don't have one so if you want 4.2.2 you'll have to build it your self

oh.. I know he asked 4.3 .. but I was suggesting 4.2.2 cuz I thought that might be easier.. so evn 4.3 we don't have a base right ?? even that we would have to build from base..
so instead of OP thinking about 4.3 ,, why doesn't he contribute to 4.2.2 and get that working .. my suggestion for him.

What do you mean by building from base ?? whats my base.. the 4.2.2 ANdroid SOurce code released.. or the GB the Xperia PLay was always on ?? or what ?(sorry Noob Question)

ok that's great.. am starting today.. plz stay with me on this thread. I will surely need all the help.
I was reading about Kernels Yesterday as well.. Actually thinking.. why don't we skip 4.2.2 and directly make a kernel for 4.3 and ROM for 4.3 .. if we r putting in all the effort.. y not for the maximum.. we will c wt happens later.. am sure some developer gonna pity our effort and take the Project over .. lol.
Woow! I love that enthusiasm .. and I think a great idea .. developers would be great to support this .. I see more future Android 4.3 .. (after seeing all fixes & performance improvements did google)
ok.. downloaded Ubuntu.. 13.04 ... Installing and Starting the basics.. will keep you posted on this.. If I have something working.. will then start something in the Dev thread.. lets c and hope for the best
Fist we must be know, do we need android 4.3 on Xperia play?
We have to work on optimizing some feature for Xperia play.
Such as
Some games
Adobe air
WiFi hotspot on CM Roms
And so on.

Yes. it is possible we get 4.3 I'm currently working on CM10.2. (4.3) for xperia play (xperia line devices). I only need to work on kernel for that.
So once done i will release initial release.

Sorry I've been gone, but i've been working on my app. So I was looking around the forums and I saw most, if not all of the Xperia 2011 devices had Android 4.2. So I traced it back to this thread, and on the projects website it said the only thing holding them back from developing Android 4.2/4.3 for the Xperia Play was a working Linux 3.4.x kernel port. So I don't exactly have time to develop anything (with my apps) but if you want any help or anything like that i HIGHLY recommend you go contact the devs on that thread

Another thread you should definately check out, seems work on a 3.x.x kernel for XPlay started, then stopped (doomlord):http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2246010

Also I think it would be in your best interests to start a thread, where hopefully some of the more expierienced developers here would notice and take interest
So let ne get this straight, we totally bypass 4.2 because we cant get it to work properly on al xperias but we just gonna dive in to 4.3? How about we fix 4.2 and make it stable first just my opinion

What he's trying to tell you is that there are many 4.2.2 ROMs, and they're all a little different (some are very different), so he can't send you a link, because there are like 20.
There isn't one from Samsung (official, in other words) yet -- there may never be -- so if that's what you're thinking, you're at the latest version available already.
soupysoup, is there a COOK 4.2.2 ROM for *some* manufacturer (e.g., Jedi Mind Trick is for T989s)? I'm wondering if he means ROOT, but I thought I'd ask.
I would be scared to point a finger in any direction. LOL. Probably a language barrier.....but if the OP doesn't read exactly what to do AND understand it, his next thread will be about a brick.

That was my issue and the reason I didn't just throw a link at op because I have no idea what he wants, sh*t for all I know he's looking for a ROM kitchen lol, never heard of a ROM cook lol, I don't want to just give him something and have him break/brick the device, I've got every ROM available for his device in a nice little folder but idk what the heLl he's talking about lol

Hi all,
All in the title, i'm interested in this tablet, but i hate overlays like touchwiz & co (i don't know the LG one...).
Is there a way to have a "pure" android in this tablet ? Cyanogenmod isn't officialy supported...
And i read somewhere, we cannot install the google play edition rom in this one.
Any idea ?
Thank you !
Try a different launcher. I recommend Nova.

Thank you ! But that's not a matter of launcher ?
thats why people install custom roms, to get rid of useless bloatware like samsung's touchwiz which consume memory and storage. Try mahdi rom if you want a pure android system experience (its based at google nexus android). Its super clean, fast and stable.

Thank you ! i'll have a look. So it's fully compatible with the gpad ? I'll just have to unlock/root/Install recovery and install it like CM ?

I had cm11 installed but it had some weird bugs that others users didnt have though and i installed mahdi, its perfect.
The procedure to install a custom rom is:
1)root using dailingrin's method
2)install a custom recovery (i recommend you drgravy's twrp 2.6.3.2)
3)perform a data wipe and install the custom rom and the google apps package from the custom recovery menu
Thank you ! i'll try that when i'll receive the device !
Our CM builds are official. And they're rock solid.
Which one ? I thought CM was not officialy supported on GPad ?

Yes, I guess that page is not up to date as the gpad isn't on the list for unofficial support either.
On the CM download page it's known as the V500

Yes, you can run whatever you want. I have a KitKat ROM, a lollipop ROM, and I had Ubuntu Touch and Firefox OS but deleted those because they were just wastes of space.

I was actually thinking of doing some ui modifications like settings panel and notification themes on deodexed n. Will need to get some free time for that.
That would be great, hope you get some free time.
Yes I would also welcome that since the other roms are not really useable.
