hi..as you see there is no development and there won't be any development because of the locked bootloader.sony rules says that there is 18 months of development since the releasing of the device,xperia c has been released in July 2013 ( 10 months till without any development ) so i want every member here have xperia c to complain and force Sony to give our rights of development i'm not buying this device to stuck on 1 android version + :
1_locked bootloader ( first device from sony has bootloader can't be unlocked ).
2-extract system.ext4 is not available because its signed.
3-we were in a fight till we got worked cwm.
4-lower devices like xperia m ( has been released in august 2014 ) has been updated to 4.3.
5-old UI and most of apps are old.
are sony punish us because we have bought xperia c or what ?!!!!
so like we worked together till we have got cwm we must do it again till xperia c get updated.and if any one of sony customer services said its related to mediatek because they didn't give us the source its not related to us we have bought from sony not from mediatek and we want the development away from mediatek or anything as sony rules says.
here is the link to complain http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-C/bd-p/Xperia_C.

MediaTek Don`t want anyone to get the sources cause they are selfish, i bet the sources for this phone are made my mediatek and sony just stated the features they need
And this phone is locked, cause again. mediatek sucks.

NO MediaTek mistake，many device with MT6589 have much development .because of sony lock bootloader !!
look at this：
[ROM][UNOFFICIAL][WIP] Cyanogenmod 11 (4.4.2 - kitkat) for Wiko Stairway (mtk6589)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2676086
It have development. But it's impossible to make custom kernel properly.
Sent from my C2105 using Tapatalk
You can make Stock based Custom ROMs but making of Custom Kernel is a problem and that's why we are not getting as many ROMs as other devices are getting
sony just give us a false hope, all of us hope with new update we can unlock bootloader, because in sony web our XC in list that can unlock bootloader, but what we have in update 16.0.B.2.16, we can unlock our phone, NO WE CANT, and this still 4.2.2 not 4.3, and this really disappointing
Sony is to blame not MediaTek, because there is already Kitkat for MT6589 on other devices.
No update
proximity sensor bug during call:crying:
low storage
low volume in speaker and also in headphone

Well guys as we all know nowadays there are several apps that can perform the basic tasks required for Android Development without breaking a sweat. But as you all may know ROM managers refuse to work as Sony Xperia L is not officially supported by Clockworkmod recovery(Actually TWRP also). Although it works through flashing a kernel with CWM or TWRP integrated solves the problem. But this type of recoveries have a major drawback it is that every time (if) a higher or newer version of Android is installed like new AOSP ROM there is incompatibility of the kernel with new Android Version or basically the Firmware.(obviously)
Ok so here's it I request Sony Xperia L developers to please try to make a independent recovery , which does not require any kernel flashing before.
And its my humble request ( fully understanding developer's hardwork ) but this needs too be done. Because for now we aren't getting official versions of them by any means.
I request every Sony Xperia L developer to do this for their own and new developer's convenience.
There's no pressure though , do this by own free will.
Anybody Ready??? please leave your thoughts on it down here

Well, you should read before post. They have tried already making CWM for locked bootloader and it wasn't working.
There was glitches. Don't get what is your problem. We have does things for XL, it doesn't mean we don't have them because you have to flash kernel in order to make them work.
I fully understand .... but

But then sometimes if kernel has to be loaded standalone, then a recovery is better option, I know it's secondary thing but you this contribution will make future development a bit user friendly for Xperia devices as we are fully dependent on Flashtool, and having a emergency secondary way is really useful sometimes.
And yup I just put on my idea if u agree. Please contribute.
Thank You .
This is impossible for any new Xperia device because they don't have recovery partition. You should research before posting anything. Reporting now.

Look at the list, no single Sony device is officially supported. This has nothing to do with the Xperia L.

Now I know that Sony Xperia Devices don't have recovery partition. So that's why no support from ROM Manager.
By the way I was being specific about Xperia L only because I wanted it for our Xperia L only . As it is in Sony Xperia L section.
anyways thanks for info.
Hello XDA
I'm going to buy a Xperia C Dual, but, here is a few questions...
1. Did Sony release the open source for Xperia C?
2. Is the CPU and GPU open source / Drivers released?
3. Can we have a stable CyanogenMod, AOKP, Paranoid Android... ? (Read question 2)
4. If the answer for questions 1, 2 and 3 is yes, why this device still doesn't have any custom ROM?
5. Will the device receive any Android upgrade?
6. Does the screen resolution (540x960) support the Themer app (by MyColorScreen)?
Reply me please
I want to buy this device or the Moto G

1.Nope

4.Read no 3
5.The ultimate question for any xperia C users, although it recieved a small upgrade which is hardly superb
6.I havent tried the themer app mate so, no clue there
Moto G is a good bang for buck sure, but will only 8 GB of total memory be enough for you ?

Sony is really crap with impossible to unlock bootloaders...
Well I suppose sony isn't supporting this device.... In the latest news, sony has announced lollipop 5.1 for many devices including M2 by july.... But has not mentioned anything about E3, leaving it out of the picture totally....
Hi @ShanePunk123
About updates the issue Is not just for Xperia E3. Indeed, Xperia T3 and 2015 Xperias like E4 and E4g are not listed for upgrade at this date.
In real terms, Xperia E1 is the less updateable of the remaining 2014 Xperias due to low ram (just 512 Mb). But we dont know. Sony can drop it all 2014/2015 E series and just update T3, or update all the 2014 remainings and 2015 newcomings.
At this moment we can assure or have the good feeling (in terms of hardware) for get lollipop in Xperias E3, E4, E4g and T3 , because they have the required to run lollipop. May be they jump to 5.1 directly overriding or avoiding 5.0.2. Idk that
Currently is an active AOSP 5.1 developer program for the Xperias E3 and T3, so, this is a tiny bit of light in our dark. For AOSP in this models, Camera is not working but other functions are working at least normally as possible, but AOSP is not intended to be a daily usable ROM. And CM guys are working in CM12.1 but theres no stable CM12.1 for us. Instead. 2013 devices and older have an active CM12 development with good stability. Damn DRM and Sony drivers ¬¬
So....Be happy because some 5.0.2 Xperia users are annoyed with the bitter lollipop because of extreme heating, no wifi, no select sound configurations, low battery life and other uncomfortable issues that didnt happen when they were sweet chocolateys. These users are going to jump to 5.1 in July and the jumping is easy for them because they have at least lollipop.
Now, keep in mind that Android M is coming and I have my doubts about reaching M. Maybe lollipop (or kitkat) is going to be the latest and final android version for our E3, other mid rangers and oldest high end Xperias.

I hope that sony will update a device about 10 months and does not adopt policies like HTC who abandons its customers. I hope that Sony will not do so, otherwise, I do not buy a Sony product. We look at other manufacturers like Motorola that are upgrading the Moto X (2013), not only Samsung also updates its products dated, so I hope that the projects we are active on FXP to our devices have a future update.
Maybe it has to do with the internal storage. Remember the Xperiia M4 Aqua 8 GB version? That thing only has about 1.33 free space(1.75 with removed bloatware). Imagine the E3 with just its less than 4 GB... Android 5 uses way too much space. The only one I think still has a chance is T3. I'm pretty sure E4 is already set on the update map.

Look here like mom sony treats its customers, should be ashamed, I am unhappy with my purchase ... at ever again :crying: :crying: :crying:

I'll first make it for d2203. Then port it to our device..
So initially I'll test boot it on d2203 and if it works then port.

I can help, but test a rom why are not capable of using Github. If I spiegni or give me a guide I can try
@hell_lock should i upload now. cuz @thenemis gave you link.
@hell_lock about to my previous experince with cm11 of lte varriants i know that for porting it to our devices need to work on kernel/ramdisk and maby we need to work on rom for RIL only. after that only bug,s by fxp will be needed to be fixed.
but however this is lollipop and i have tested on kitkat.
Great!

By that time can I use Developer Preview 4.ftf as daily driver? I can handle some glitchs.

Sorry to disappoint you but the Z3 isn't going to be graced with official Android N support. DP4 is as far as we're going to get.
DP4 can be used as a daily driver but there is an issue with the wifi. If you're not connected to wifi you need to disable it or risk a possible random reboot.

Well 7.1 aosp will Come as binaries are already avaible. Wenn just habe still luck. Thing is that official Support Not avaible couse device leaks off the encription that Google forced to 7.0 thats why we dont got it .
Does this mean the only way to get N on Z3 is through AOSP? Can't someone port Android N from another Xperia device?

Port Android N from another device? Qualcomm depracated msm8974 platform long ago so no other msm8974 device will be getting Nougat officially. All the other Xperia devices that will receive Nougat are 64 bit, using 3.10 kernel officially, and are on different platforms which means it won't work. Furthermore, there's also an additional barrier of proprietary libraries.
AOSP is the way to go

Ah that's a shame. That being said I don't know why Sony teased us a developer preview of Android N if we were never going to get it officially. It's like showing some dessert and then saying you can't have it. My Xperia S has alot of support in terms of AOSP, hell there's been a stable build of Nougat for a while. I haven't updated it because I only use it to listen Audiobooks. Seeing as we no longer have official support, I hope this means more AOSP focus.

Qualcomm deprecated the msm8974 platform and Google had those encryption or OpenGL requirements, not sure why everyone blames Sony when no other msm8974 is getting official Nougat..
I am very sad that xperia z3 which is marshmallow is now has lineage os 15. But my favourite smartphone z5 (now also) has nougat and not getting lineage os 15. I am not blaming anyone but i am begging plz built lineage os 15 for xperia z5. plz plz plz.....:crying::crying:
Yes, please be patient.:highfive:
waiting for a long time
It's over
I think support for xperia z5 by deveopers are over . NO movement in our forum for z5 . :crying::crying::crying:
Plz if any support is there remaining build oreo rom . Again I am not ordering I am begging.
There's so much more than just downloading Google's AOSP Rom and modify a bunch of codes.
It will come. Just be patient. They dont get paid for this so. just. chill.
Btw, if they release an early version of the rom, it's likely to have some bugs and people like you will spam the threads so what's the rush for?
k bro
All I do is just wait.. Cause they still stabilizing the hot snapdragon 810 to run their patches.. My phone also z5, but I don't know how to root at android 7.1.1.. I want to force it but I worried if it bricked.. Any suggestions?
