There's no 4.4 AOSP for our device, we can expect a alpha/beta release of 5.0 AOSP for the next weeks/months but therefore it's not working on dual SIM E3 variants like 2212 for now.

Ok, really it comes to custom roms for sony we always have to be patient because everything always takes a little longer if not for the work of the external dev we would not ever leave the 4.4.2

I did not try custom ROMs on D6633 yet, I'll wait until Sony stops support beyond Marshmallow and then I'll play. Current modified rooted stock ROM's provide enough customizability that unless pure custom ROM offers amazing new features I am not desperate for custom ROM just yet. I use 3rd party launcher and couple of MODs and I am happy for now.
There are few modified stock ROM's you might wanna try, like this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/development/rom-23-4-1-232-t3226948

[Q] Best ROM KitKat 4.4 for Xperia E Dual

Dear All,
Im reading for days but I cannot figure out: What is the most stable KitKat (v4.4.x) version for the Sony Xperia E Dual (C1605). All the versions I see e.g. CM11 are almost one year old with bugs. I like to have the camera working. I also see a lot of FW/ROM cominations. But I don't see a version which is stable and say one or two monds old.
Can someone tell what is the latest most stable KitKat (v4.4.x) ROM (and kernel). I don't need special theams, overclocking, games etc I only need stability at KitKat. And where to download

All KitKat based ROM that there are currently are only for single Sim version and no one is stable because port KitKat on an old device is difficult. Try stock based ROM and you will not be disappointed (I hope).

Thank you very much for your answer.
Ok that's why I didn't succeeded. I tried several roms and kernels but none of them worked with dual sim or where 4.4.
I now recovered with flashmode and C1605_11.3.A.3.1_CE.ftf. Hopefully this also restores the kernel and wipes all previous settings?
I hope it will work better now. My xperia rebooted automatically so now and then (especially after power down) and I had hoped to solve it with a new ROM. Because it's not the battery or battery contacts.

When you flash a firmware it'll reset all your settings, contacts, etc.
So your device reboot by itself? I never had this problem and I think that you will not solve it flashing another ROM, anyway I recommend to you to try Candy's ROM (by TheBrainCandy).
P.S.: Sorry for my bad English.

[Completed] Is there a rom for the Xperia sp that bravia engine 2 works in?

Im buying a Xperia Sp tomorrow and i'm planning on rooting and putting a custom rom on (maybe CM 13) I'm wondering is there a rom thats based on either 5.1.1 or 6 that supports the sony bravia engine 2 so that it still works?
alot of people have said to me if its based on a "stock rom" then it will, is this true and also whats the difference between stock roms and other roms?
also if there isnt a rom based on 5 or 6 that supports it and only 4.4.4 does for example that will still do.
I Would also appreciate it if someone could provide a link to one (if there is one) thanks

Hello, and welcome to XDA!
Stock would be what the OEM (in this case, Sony) releases or is at least the base. A custom ROM has a different base (often very close to AOSP), which include CyanogenMod.
Because CM would not have the libraries that Sony has, Bravia Engine probably will not work. Probably the only way it would be, is to use either the Sony stock ROM or something that used the Sony ROM as it's base.
Unfortunately a quick scan in the SP Development area does not match your criteria.
By the way, this thread may help:
> Sony Xperia SP > Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > Have stock... Want to put something custom on it. Confused
Can direct any questions there, once you have an XDA account.
A bit late for your final decision in purchase, but I hope this helps.

Best Official Android Version for Z3

Hi everyone,
im getting my Z3 in a few days. I was using xperia s for more than 4 years. It still had great support thanks to mickybart that phone is on naosp 7.1.1 nougat.
Now with the z3 i would like to know which official rom is the best to use. i think i dont want to go custom rom this time and stay with official. for a year or until im bored with official.
what i already read in this forum is:
* Android 5.1.1 firmware .264 - exploits beware, 2 years old already!!!
* Android 6.0.1 firmware .291 - battery gone bye bye (no more Stamina since Google forced their Doze)
* Android 7.0 DP4 (this one) - better battery (Doze improved) but reboots at random (fixed in DP5 but that was not released for Z3)
* Android 6.0.1 Concept firmware .3657 - better battery (still not as good as 5.1.1), no root on LockedBootloader, newest software for Z3 (kernel compiled Oct 2016!!!)

is this accurate? Would you recommend updating to the latest official Marshmallow since this is what im prefering.(The battery life cant be that bad?)
also im not a heavy user.
Please feel free to post your opinion, experiences and so on. Thank you.

Since you seem to want root I would personally go for a Stock .291 based custom ROM. For example I was able to include Stamina Mode from XZ in my latest version of Fragment ROM with help from RXS and Team Duality so you could get your desired features this way.
Lots available here from talented devs and since MM was released a while ago they are all stable in features.
Alternatively if you want stock stock then definitely use the latest anyway. .291. Battery isn't awful and its definitely the most defined MM version.
Idk why people like using older android versions. Battery shouldn't matter when you'll have at the least 24 hrs usage and get tonnes more features.
If you get adventurous I highly recommend unlocking the BL and flashing a custom N ROM as they are very stable now for Z3. The only difference I noticed was my MM ROM was much more "zippy" in the UI than the N ROMs but I'm not sure what the cause is. It doesn't affect usage though in any way.

Ok thanks. I will start with the latest .291 and if im bored or unhappy with it i will check your Fragment Rom.

I would say .291 for stock, despite being full of bloat that isn't even used anymore and older apks that were deprecated with good patience you can make a really good clean of the OS and get the phone bootin' in less than 40secs. But from my personal opinion I would unlock the bootloader and move on to (my builds of) LineageOS. It's pretty much a lightweight OS with sony apps support and full device support (only hw encryption is missing, but you can still encrypt your device using sw).

That's my quote in the OP, I've said that since in my use case SoT (screen-on-time) when from >6h on LL .264 to <4h on MM .291.
Yes, it will be different in your case, but the battery hit is still too high.
Get ForceDoze (or Greenify) if you don't have root, also get Xposed+PowerNap (Stamina-inspired module) if you have root, and it will be improved, not as good as LL but anyway.

You don't use device encryption, right? That's another story... a longer to boot one.

thanks Licaon_Kter and xkeita. i appreciate your posts and will definetly check these things out...sooner or later.
getting the phone tomorrow.
