Hello,
I'm currently (and very happily) running nAOSPROM on my Xperia S. However, the only thing I miss from stock is the camera, both its simplicity and its quality. I tried various alternative camera apps, and they are all not very satisfactory (especially in low light) and seem to draw an ungodly amount of battery while doing an inferior job. I even tried the recent port of Z4 camera (including framework), and it seems that the XS isn't able to handle that one anymore, running out of memory and coming to a screeching halt. Not that I'd be particularly interested in placing stickers on my pictures or using AR anyway.
Bottom line/tl;dr: I want the camera back that worked so great in Xperia S stock firmware.
My question now is: Is there any possibility and if so, someone knowledgeable enough to port the bog-standard Xperia S stock camera from the latest (and probably last) JB stock firmware so it can be run on Lollipop?
Thank you so much in advance (even for a definite no)

Yes, that's the one I meant with "the recent port of the Z4 camera", I made the same experience.
I'm really hoping for a port of the original, basic, but great working camera.
i wrote to the dev and he replied to me: "to fix black screen use com.sonyericsson.cameraextension.jar in framework folder from working xperia port camera for xperia s it will surely works" .. so i will try it when i will have some free time

I'm waiting too for a stock camera port for lollipop roms (ucyan or naosp). Please let us know the outcome.
I'm still on stock too just for the camera. I'm using the EXR port from Z1 which is great but also the stock would be great.
Any news ?
I do not know if I'm doing dirty flash which find it hard but I tried to install both Ucyan as the Naosp the Ucyan in the system is with random crashes and reboots in Naosp black screen and a Rebot until not stand it and went back to SipleAOSP
Any news ?

In my opinion there isn't any hero here in this moment ...
buy Xperia Overlay.. there is worknig sony cam on 5.0.2 but without superior auto
Good evening to all the community,
I haven't been here for some some time.... since I had my HTC Hero.
This was a phone that I installed so many custom ROM... Back in the days Android was not so developed and the demand was enormous...
But back to what I mention on the topic,
I am really disappointed with Sony, this phone costed me a lot of money, and not even two years have passed and they just don't give a FXXX.
Is there any way to install a pure android Marshmallow on Xperia Z1 Compact ?
And another thing... can we remove this big notification banners, as for whatsapp or hangouts... it's annoying...
Thank you for you attention!
The two years = no further support is completly normal. No difference in brands there.
Clean marshmallow? Possible. Bugfree? No. Take a look at fxp: http://fxpblog.co/aosp/aosp-6-0/
I find latest 5.1.1 update from Sony to be a good one, and I do not regret buying and owning this phone for two years Not loads of custom ROMs, but CM has always been good.
When CM13 nightlies start rolling and gets stable enough, I'll jump over to the custom ROMs wagon and enjoy bleeding endge Android again

Hi,
I've been into custom ROM's before.... thing is, some of them are not stable, and there is always something crashing or not fully working.
thanks for the tip, I'll have a look.

Something like this http://s9.postimg.org/7oqzyxzkv/Screenshot_20151205_191800.png ??
If you realy want to try Marshmallow you need to download unoficial build AOSP_M_151019_amami.zip from http://fxpblog.co/aosp/aosp-6-0/ and since these build can't boot I have fixed bootloop with recompiling kernel booth for boot.img and recovery.img, so simple replace recovery.img and boot.img with this new one https://mega.nz/#!ABhFTCLA!A55h9N0DQfJgi5Yxa9mmk3CrLlP_hEKOTDamZs6kaxs and try! And one more thing, its not for daily usage since audio is not working, camera...etc!
is there some video of rom online ?

Question,
Is this the "default ROM" for Sony's android : http://developer.sonymobile.com/kno...e/open-devices/list-of-devices-and-resources/ ?
Is there a similar way to install this as as having a "Pure Android Version" ?

We'll see if anyone wanting to build straight CM for us.

Since CyanogenMod still hasn't released a CM13 for the Sony Xperia Z1C, I'm looking for alternatives. I saw this thread about all the Marshmallow ROMs out there and I might give them a try, but I want something that will be receive regular updates, and I know that's not true of all those custom ROMs. (Although I don't know much about the Android Ice Cold Project. What is that? They've built a Marshmallow ROM for the Z1C. Should I just use that?)
Since the Xperia Z3 Compact has CM13 support, I'm considering just installing that CM13 build on my Z1C. How terrible an idea is this? Is this the absolute worst idea? Could it work? Are the Z3C and Z1C radically different?
Thanks!

Probably not, but... 1) you can try porting. There are at least 2 extensive threads in cross dev forum about how-to, and since the phones are similar, it is probably not too hard. However, you would have to port every update, I think. 2) there is an unofficial CM13 you could flash in the thread you linked.
I'm currently testing the unofficial build and i'm having some problems. When i have a stable setup, i'll document my results here.
For know CM13 for Z1c is definitely possible, but i don't know at what cost.
Currently i'm fighting with getting root access to work properly and getting rid of a Strict-Mode-like red blinking frame border which is most prominent when opening the notifications (very annoying).

What's the problem with root? Do you have root access enabled in dev settings?

Fixed the red frame issue using the alternate fix of this guide:
adding
Code:
persist.sys.strictmode.visual=0
persist.sys.strictmode.disable=1
to build.prop
Root "issue" isn't really one as CM provides root access by default when enabled, but trying to flash SuperSU latest failed, apparently due to an already existing installation (which is not the case).
I'm going to try out other MM roms for now and will go back to LP if there is no 'stable' one (performance).
Wait, I may have been mistaken. I thought there was an official CM 13 build for the Z3c, but it appears there's only an official CM 12. My bad! I'm gonna try the AICP MM build for the Z1c instead.

I can recommend you aicp for amami. It is stable, and fully working, camera is the best of mm roms for z1c.
What a great mid range but high spec phone the p2 is.
Rooting this device is so simple too.
Open dev options in about phone,
Allow OEM unlocking,
Root device,
Enter code ( google it ),
Reboot to root.
Really hope some ROM developing is going to happen for this device.
Its almost Vanilla as standard which is very nice.
Only gripe I have with this phone is the hard keys have no back light but I can live with that as at least Black view have kept them off the screen.
Great phone and I'm getting 8-10 hours SOT and I'm a heavy user.
I purchased from Amazon which I've linked below.
Fingers crossed fro some custom romage for this

I've been able to find a few ported ROMs at the Russian 4pda forum (not allowed to post links; google "Blackview P2 - Прошивки"), as well as TWRP. You'll need an account in order to download, otherwise you'll get a nice 404 error (I wasted quite a bit of time last night dealing with the Russian captcha, so good luck with that. :fingers-crossed
I've tested a couple of the ROMs available so far, but other than getting rid of the horrible icons in the stock version, I've can't really see any advantage of the ROMs currently available.
Think I will give that a miss. Thanks though.

I've just got this phone - it's great but I've been out of the 'installing' another ROM for a while...is it worth rooting etc?
I'm very tempted by this phone. Is it running okay with the Nougat update? and does it still root easily on Nougat?
Yes - I updated it to nougat and its better than mm - just need to find a way to update to 7.1.2 now!
Cool code...for the root, work fine in my blackview p2 lite also :good:

Thx bro
Let's see if i could advance with RIL at XA1 at least
I have another XA1 arriving soon so I hope to help out where & when I can.
Hey there, i like experiencing some custom rom's. Is there any for XA1
I've seen someone who posted a GSI for xa1 but the comment section makes me stay away from it..

Hi,
The XA1 arrived but it was SIM Locked (Network Locked to Vodafone)
I did notice something interesting though.
The sim unlock code entry box appears very very early in the boot process so I think maybe this sim check needs to be satisfied.
Hopefully the LK is not responsible for this checking.
The Phone is getting unlocked but it takes a few days seemingly so I left the phone with the shop until the code is received.

you could as OP of this thread more about this. Afaik this phone come with encryption by default (kernel level) which can be disable though not recommended since privacy and stuff, Adding decryption onto twrp is challenging since sony add some of there own encrypt mechanic iirc and till now I still don't know how to add decryption support for this device

Ah its OK. I added the files onto the phone storage then went into twrp but then realised I have to wipe internal storage to modify new ROM lol. Tomorrow I'll have to access files by OTG or laptop or micro SD
Hello! First of all thanks for TWRP. I want to ask how's your progress with custom roms? XA1 Plus Dual really needs one.
Hello
I am still trying to fix RIL, that's why I didn't push them.
Thanks

How do you guys boot into recovery? My XA1 is unlocked, flashed recovery via Fastboot and typed "fastboot boot recovery" then it shows unlock warning and boots into Android.. Also tried with button Combo (which is the right combo?) but no success.. Maybe problem is the Orange Triangle Warning regarding bootloader unlock before boot?`Thanks
