DEVS Help me please - Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E

Porting a kernel? Is that even possible? Do you have any experience? Porting a newer Android version requires a lot of skill, and you'll walk into a lot of errors. My advice would be to wait for the Tamsui team to fix and release CM11! Those people know what they are doing.

It is true as Sony has changed the list
According to Sony official due to very good response from sale of tipo
Sony has decided to make it hit and give JELLYBEAN update...

Its just a rumor, no official post from sony :|
Re: Xperia tipo Official Jelly Bean
You guys are believing in rumors? SONY only Upgrades their 2012 High End Xperia and Latest 2013 Xperia to Jelly Bean.
And yes it's correct as someone stated above that SONY never made an Official Statement about it.
And Why this thread belong in Development Section? Whats the development in here? This thread is belong to the General Section because no Link to SONY Source nor Download Link to that "Most Likely a Lie Firmware". So please move this thread to the General Section (Just wanted to make this Forum Development Tidy)

Most likely untrue. It just an article quoting another article. Looks like Tipo will stay together with ICS.
yep i will belive this when i can update tipo..
This is the last official information that I read when I bought my phone:
http://blogs.sonymobile.com/2012/12...an-android-4-1-for-2012-xperia-smartphones-2/
I read too (but I don't remember where :S) that Sony doen't update to Jelly Bean due to performance issues ... but I can see in this forum many custom ROMs with Jelly Bean in our Tipo :S
I would like to see an official Jelly Bean on my Tipo.... I have locked bootloader and I can't install JB ROMs
Regards!
Just Google it u will find many articles about it...
Rumours have some base they didn't come all alone fake....:laugh:
Well tipo Can be upgraded to jellybean
As there r two mobiles worst than tipo
Galaxy music and chat that are getting jellybean..

Nope. Once, there were rumours of Xperia U getting Jelly Bean within a week. A week past and it announced that Xperia U will not get JB. So most likely the rumours are fake. Besides, Sony usually do not upgrade ultra low end phones like Tipo.

Don't rain on my parade :/
Just kidding I also think it won't be. That is what this forum is for. Just wait FXP to be stable and that will be our "jellybean" update.

Yes one day cm10 will be stable
But if xperia tipo get JB than development of CM10.1 for tipo will start...:laugh:

Yes as I understand, then the development of CM10.1 will be easier and more stable because of the new kernel/drivers or something released by Sony.
However, Xperia J got jellybean already and devs can take that from it for CM10.1 for Tipo/Miro and there is no need anymore for official jellybean..

I think FXP will not develop or port it until we got jellybean...:angel:
Also there are many users that have locked bootloader...
Tipo/Miro development is very slow

As far as I know, the phone's RAM is not enough for the JB... but the Xperia E (with the same hardware as in Tipo) comes with JB OOB, so that should not be a problem...
Anyway, can't wait to see a method that allows custom ROM installation in phones with locked bootloader, like in Xperia Sola.
AW: Xperia tipo/tipo dual Official Jelly Bean
As I stated elsewhere I think it's all about the money... Here on xda you can find jelly bean Roms for old low end phones. Example: x10 mini, great stable jelly bean Roms are available there. And those phones have even worse hardware then tipo... Sony could provide jelly bean if they wanted... But why should they want it? They want to sell new phones! So don't complain, buy a new phone or support the devs here, even with donations, so they're motivated to make all this efforts! Just my personal opinion...

[Q][E DUAL/TIPO DUAL] Will it be viable to port JB from E to Tipo?

So the new firmware for Xperia E Dual with JB is being pushed around the world, finally.
I'msearching something to do for the summer, and learning some android could only be good, so I thought why not ask for this?
I have a Tipo Dual, it's great with Gimlo, but Sony's update policy is kinda disturbing.
Since E Dual is a very similar phone, do you think that we could cook E's firmare to suit are Tipos?
I'm willing to try some of this out (after exams), but first I wanted to ask the pros here:
Is it even viable, let alone difficult?
With custom kernel probably

Yeah, that's what I was thinking In the first place.
There is Vengence, but don't know if it will interoperate with JB.
Cant' wait to have some time to look into it. In the meantime, If anybody has ideas or pointers, post away.
It is not problem in rom, it is in kernel 3.4. And FXP are trying to port it right now.

[Q] Can we use Sony's new ROMs with Xperia L?

Guys I'm just curious and pardon me if this a stupid question. I'm still a newbie for these things.
I have been using Varun's Free Xperia ROM for a while and as much as I love KitKat I do miss the Xperia features.
So can we do some workaround and use Varun's kernel with a rom of Sony's KitKat update like some building new ROMs? So we dont miss the Xperia features too?

I had the exact same question in my mind. But I thought it would be too stupid to ask.

Varun's kernel is only compatible with AOSP 4.4.
You could use Sony Media Apps which are compatible with 4.4

thanx for reply
its been almost 12 hrs and i have tried too many roms on xperia j
and my experience says using stock .31 ftf give me best performance and battery life
i have tried stock base rom having z or z2 stuff but all are having some issue like white text in setting>app>downloaded and some are having lags

Sorry for late reply,
I suggest you to use PA rom made by lozohcum,it's base on cm10
PA ROM : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2326477
As you tried a few custom rom,you may notice that the screen won't light up when someone dial-in, you need to press the lockscreen button twice in order to pick up the phone.
also,the illumination bar isn't working normally in cm10,you can try it first and you can disable it from setting page after you flash the rom.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You might want to use walkman to work on your phone,I am using this,
Download : http://d-h.st/HOJ
Original link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43100933&postcount=229
Since album and movie app update a lot, google yourself "album for 4.1.2" and "movie for 4.1.2"
It's better for you to use CM10 or stock JB since the CM11 is still buggy
If you fell your phone is laggy, use vengance kernel for the stock JB 4.1.2
Here is the list of tweaks, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1947926
It works for all phone.
Hopes it help you! :laugh:

c1505 - kernel ?

Hey guys,
I have to stay with this oldie for a while; can you point me to the newest CM kernel(download link) for the c1505?
Any ROMs you recommend for this device( also, point me to the download!)? Is there MIUI for this device?
One more thingng, I can't find how they call this device + the merged forums make it difficult to find device-related info- is it Sony E or Sony Ex? I bought it as a replacement phone and I have no idea what I'm dealing with here. ^^''' It's always about J or Tipo or miro- not much for c1505. Ain't sure...
Thanks!

Hi!
I don't recommended to use the CyanogenMod kernel because you have to use it only with CyanogenMod ROM and it's buggy (GSM bug in CyanogenMod 10 and camera bug in CyanogenMod 11).
If you want a good, stable and bug free ROM you can try 11.3.a.0.47 deodexed and Odexed stock based with a bIt customization with Zeus Kernel.
I think that you have already unlocked the bootloader, right?
P.S.: Sorry for my bad English.

Nope, didn't figure out how to do it myself- I always get the 'cannot be unlocked the official way' message. I gave up. It always worked for me, never had any trouble, dunno why it doesn't work with this peace of beep. *cries*
Well, I'm not a fan of CM myself- I just figured out CM would be there for taking on this device. Wasn't so sure about other options.
Thanks for the ROM! Gonna check it out- hope there's no gapps there.
