[Completed] Xperia Z1 STABLE and update cyanogenmod for a noob

Hello, the title shows you most things but I probably ought to expand. I've had my z1 for a bit and have been using Android for a long time, I have never rooted or installed cyanogenmod but say the oppo phone and finally I've decided i want in. Can someone find me a suitable one with a very noob friendly tone
Thanks alot
Callum
P. S. Any kernel numbers etc. you may need I can add if asked but to be honest I don't know what you need

It doesn't seem very stable. Not something I want to risk n my daily driver or am I paranoid?

No, this rom is in development that's wahy it seems not really stable.
The best you can do it's to go to both of Z1 Android Development and Z1 Original Android Development, read and choose one of these roms.
I cannot tell you if this rom is best than the other, because you must read, and read before to select and try a rom
Don't forget you need to read with attention my second link which is really important for rooting your device etc... and don't ne afraid, it's easy :good:

Also, what's the difference between the rooting and cyanogenmod. I have seen rooting before but never really seemed good, I've seen cyanogenmod before but now I'm confused between the two

You need to be root if you want to flash a custom rom like cyanogen rom.

[Q] Android L developer preview

Hi to all! I wonder if someone can make a port of the android L preview of the nexus for our device: is it possible?

No need. Better wait a while for full open source version
BTW wrong section

It's will be useless, because in less one month we will have official by cm

Some people tried, but it wasn't possible. Our kernel relies too heavy on CAF, that's why it won't work. We would need a clean AOSP kernel for the developer preview, which is not worth the work because we will get L some time late next month hopefully.

Next time, take this question to the Q/A section. There's also a thread in general that was working on this, but it dropped due to a bad AOSP kernel source from OnePlus

thanks to everybody, and sorry for the wrong section!
I'm not a newbie, i just made confusion with tapatalk :silly:

[q] kitkat xperia j

will we get Kitkat for xperia j is anybody develop the rom?i still using xperia j its a great phone just need more respect

Forget about it.
Nobody's working on kitkat for tamsui devices, time to move on and get a different phone if you want newer system.

No money for new device..
What if we donate a developer to fix the bugs for kitkat?

You''d better use this money you want to donate to save up for new phone, good android devices aren't that expensive anymore.
Although do what you want, all devs that were here left. If someone would come and try to fix the bugs, it would be great.

Wrong place for such thread. Omg people learn how to post things on forums...

[Q] any upgrade for m2 aqua?

Hi all!
I have to ask this, I have searched for days and days over, buThe all in vain
I want to upgrade to lollipop, but it seems as if I can not do that. So to either douse the my passionate flames, or to spice them up a little, I would like to ask you all;
Is there, or will there be any upgrades for Xperia M2 Aqua? They can be something like AOSP.
Also, I would like to ask one more thing;
Would it be possible for someone, if they have a working build on his/her phone, to possibly upload it or share it? It would make my day!
Thank you for reading this and consider this as real questions and request
Sincerely
Anders

I asking this because I have tried the "Eagle" build on my D2403, but it ain't working, it won't start, only vibrates and then turns off right away.
So I decided to read about codenames, and it seems like m2 Aqua (D2403) got the codename "Seahawk". I would like anyone of you to confirm if this is true or not?
And now I will go back to follow this thread as I really do want to try Lollipop

Kind of "fun" how this thread have over 100 views, yet no answer what so ever.
Some research, and in my build.prop it mention both eagle and Seahawk for this phone.
So which one is it, or is it a bit of both?
And there will be no official upgrade to m2 aqua (D2403).
But I have yet no answer to as to why the Eagle build for Lollipop is not working on my phone.
And this have raised another question;
Can a kernel to 4.4.4 work with 5.0 or does it have to be tailored for 5.0?
Edit:
I should mention that I have had a bad day and lost my temper a bit, and if anyone take the first part in a bad way, I am sorry!
I should also mention that I have tried AOSP android Eagle build, and Unofficial CM12.1 build from the same site. Fxpblog or something like that.

Even if this thread has 100 views, what does it mean? It could mean a lot of this but the most accurate ones would be that either :
This forum is for eagle and these 100 views are the users of the eagle and not seahawk so they are allowed to not know the answer for your questions. Second thing, even if theres some views of people that have seahawk, they may not know the answers for your questions (maybe they are not rooted, or they never tried a custom ROM, that's just two causes). Also questions like this repeats over and over again so either the users or the devs don't want to repeat themselves. Even if a Dev would reply here, he'd probably tell you to search the forum first.
And now, I can't answer your questions myself because I own the eagle not seahawk, but from experience I can tell that it's not a good idea to flash a ROM for specific phone onto another phone (even if m2 and m2 aqua are theoretically the same) because it may end up with a bootloop etc. Now if it is possible to cross flash the ROM, than I would say that you missed some point of the procedure you should have taken to flash lp on the aqua, the most frequent cause of the bootloops are improperly flashed ROMs. Now, by this I mean you could have forgotten to wipe the phone, or wipe cache memory. Don't hate me for what I said, because I'm really not sure how to answer your questions. Peace

Is there any avaible Android 9.0 (or 8) for my Sony Xperia XA?

Hey, im looking for custom rom for my device (Sony Xperia XA F311) for a long time now. I have found a few websites on google, but they were actually useless. But today (09.01.2019) i have found this video : "Android 9.0 P ROM for Sony Xperia XA [Compatible 100%]" on YouTube.
And im not sure if it isn't fake. When you open the download link it says " Android8.0Oreo Rom". And that is why i do not trust it. But i can't find anything else, this device is just forsaken...I would be very grateful if anyone her could tell me if it's not a fake one ,or perhaps show me a new one and eventually guide me to the "treasure". Im not planing to change my device any soon because of lack of money
Thanks to everyone who is willing to help me with my problem.
Daniel

Hi @Ciasiu, sorry but it's a big fake. No Oreo or Pie roms for XA.

Well... Defintly not what i wanted to hear, but reason for me to stop looking for it. Thank you very much. Appreciate that.
