We are happy to announce that we now have launched AOSP build instructions for Android 13!
The Xperia Open Source Project (Xperia Open Devices) is an initiative created to guide the developers step-by-step on how to build AOSP for their unlocked Xperia devices. Our instructions will show you how to prepare your environment, how to download all the necessary tools, and how to download and configure the code before you can build AOSP images and flash them on your own device.
New AOSP build instructions for Android 13 - Sony Developer World

Great news.
Can these instructions also be used to build LineageOS by using repo init -u https://github.com/LineageOS/android.git -b lineage-19.1 in step 4-1?
That's cool. Got me wondering if there's a chance for the 10 III to receive a stock Android 13 update at some point. I know that Sony used to only release one major Android update for its phones, but maybe things are changing for the better.
Interesting! I just checked and there are no binaries for android 13. Maybe the binaries for android 12 works?

ok thanks, I will try it.
Tried building the 13.0.0_r7 as userdebug, boots and works but cellular doesn't seem to work yet. I flashed the Android 12 binaries called SW_binaries_for_Xperia_Android_12_4.19_v3a_lena

Can anyone build the AOPP rom from Pwnie express for one plus 3/3t?
All informations can be found here:
https://www.pwnieexpress.com/aopp
They (the current release builds) are based on Android Lollipop (5.1.1) so no.
Their git shows that a nougat based version is WIP, so maybe once work on that is complete.
Nothing really different then Kali for android and that seemed to have burned out as you lose many device features as it is made with a different purpose in mind.
So as you guys probably know the current android P ROM requires an android 8.1 vendor image. Is this because P is closed source and it'll change when sources become publicly available or is this an android P thing and will still require 8.1 vendor even when it's officially released?
Just wondering
Thanks in advance
Android P hasn't been released officially so none of the manufacturers will have released a final vendor image for the devices for Android 9, 8.1 vendor images will be the only ones available in that case. Earlier versions of Android don't use the Treble system so would be useless.
Android 8.0 treble devices should also support 9.
Hi everybody,
Im currently trying to build a ROM as a project for my studies. However I can't find the binaries that are required for the build for the Mi6.
If anyone knows where I can get these, please tell me
Im following this Guideline

Thanks for that. I couldn't test them yet, because I switched to a LineageOS build.
For future searchers finding this: If the Files provided don't work or aren't available, look for TheMuppets on GitHub and choose your device and LineageOS version. (Probably only works with LineageOS)
Hi. I want to try to build lineage os 17/18 for my old phone. I have env and I already build package for other phone. For Nexus 4 there and only some old lineage os 15 builds. How to prepare lineage os 18 based on lineage os 15? Is it possible or maybe it needs to be done from scratch. Is there any instruction how to do this?
Porting a ROM means there's a similar device with a working LineageOS on it. Which means it's already built, and only small modifications to make it stable for you.
Porting doesn't work the way you described. You can't build Android 12 on top of Android 8, every new major Android update, Google releases a new source code.
Then, manufacturers/developers modify it to their sweets. What you want to do is to build LineageOS 18/17 for an unsupported device. There's a lot of guides online about it. The context matters.
Can you share some links about building lineage os for unsupported devices? Will it help somehow when there are some old versions builds?
Why we still don't have LineageOS 19?
What is missing ?
I asked luk and he told me build quality is not enough good in his opinion (that was month ago)
A couple Asus and Pixels got it so far, according to this post.

Kernel source is here but, judging by the performance of the stock rom, it's probably not great as a stable base :
GitHub - OnePlusOSS/android_kernel_oneplus_sm8350 at oneplus/SM8350_S_12.0_9Pro
Contribute to OnePlusOSS/android_kernel_oneplus_sm8350 development by creating an account on GitHub.

OnePlus themselves seem to have been pushing 12.1 to earlier models and are probably just going to go for a better Android 13 experience for the 9/10 models.
Even Google has made a mess of Android 12 on their own Pixels.
You can always check the OnePlus github at the url above and search for the chipset which you can confirm using the GSMArena page for the phone :
OnePlus 9 Pro - Full phone specifications
www.gsmarena.com
When you do, you'll see the latest revisions pushed by OnePlus along with the Android base, SM8350_S_12.0 in the above case. If you don't see the current version then there's no kernel source pushed by OnePlus which means custom rom modders need to try using previous kernel source. That's why all the Android 12 roms have been using the Android 11 kernel and why the phone had to have OxygenOS 11 before flashing

Until now yes but judging by what was said above, even the A12 kernel isn't up to scratch for custom roms.
