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.

I installed AOSP and no problem with internal memory, I got a htc desire hd with a memory of 1.5 GB and is now updated to cm12.1 unofficial without having any problem of memory. Look here like mom sony treats its customers, should be ashamed, I am unhappy with my purchase ... at ever again :crying: :crying: :crying:

For this s*itty move, I gave my E3 to my dad and I bought lumia 535. F*CK YOU SONY. WE DESERVE UPDATES!!!
I think that we shoud try it but lets make a real massege and do it corectly.
Hey guys. I am trying to compile some aosp roms here for d2203 and d2202. So if you're interested in testing them just let me know..
PS- you should have a fast internet to download the roms.. my internet sux so I cant download them from my server :/

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!

Sony Mobile is committed to supporting the open developer community, and one way to show this is by publishing parts of our code as well as selected tools developed by our internal developers.
For some of the Xperia™ devices, we provide Android™ Open Source Project (AOSP) device configurations on GitHub. This means that the software will be open for you as a developer to use and contribute to. This is a way for us to support the open Android community, and it is also a tool for us to facilitate and verify contributions to AOSP.
If you want to build AOSP for your unlocked Xperia device, you find all the resources you need in the sections below.

I don't know how to cook roms myself. I'm waiting for some dev that know cooking stuff to make the ROM based on Marshmallow.
It's a little weard tbh as there are new 5.1 roms all over the place, but no new topic's with 6.0.
The only ROM that I can find is the AOSP from FXP Group, but it's old (19th October) with bugs etc.
I don't know why they suspend the work on it.
We have official source from Sony to build 6.0 AOSP rom, + now the aosp camera possibilty and could even maybe import the theme engine, launcher from Sony Marshmallow Concept from Z3.
I know that it can be a lot, and its only my toughts as I don't know how exacly build this stuff up, and I just keep my finger cross that someone will grab hands on it and build some nice looking rom for our Z1 Compact.

I know that @erikcas is working on it, (mentioned in his Omni thread), and there is or was a build out there for Z1c - http://fxpblog.co/aosp/aosp-6-0/ - which I flashed and got bootloop. Besides that, someone else started a thread which was closed. I don't know the details, but it seems like they weren''t being totally kosher, (it's still viewable somewhere in the forum). I'm sure we'll be seeing something more from FXP before too long...

Hello, you don't have to get account to use Emma, follow instructions from Sony here http://developer.sonymobile.com/services/flash-tool/how-to-download-and-install-the-flash-tool/ you probably skipped this part - Copy the Customization.ini file. You find it in the Flash_tool_for_Xperia_X.zip.
I can see there is no openbootloader for amami
Edit:
figured it out, its just need to flash ta update aka new s1 boot config.

Nothing special... just download flash tool from Sony site and folow instructions... download complete, flastool installed, simple start emma and connect your device in bootloader mode, til after you connect device in bootloader mode emma window will display few things on the right menu, install TA update and you are done with enabled recovery option (called openbootloader).

Yes, thanks Mate! Which Firmware was it exactly? Hope i can work with it...
I'm also working on AOSXP actually. https://sites.google.com/view/miustone/AOSXP an new, Xperia exclusive Android OS based on pure AOSP and Sony Open Device Trees.
For Orange Fox we will have to flash a Kernel after using it since it will replace our Devices Kernels (fastboot boot doesn't works). But it's nice for flashing ROMs, GApps, Kernels, Magisk, Wiping/Formatting and so on. That will allow People to share and flash own Projects... Hope that brings in some live here since it will be based on Android 11 which should be good enough for the future of this Devices...

I owned a previous gen XPeria phone and on that one it was known that if you unlock bootloader and install a custom ROM it will degrade your phone performance permanently because it blows away some partition with DRM keys.
Is it known whether it is the same with the Xperia 5 III?
Similar question: The camera app on my US 5 III is some "Photography Pro" app that very much appears to be a Sony product and not Google. I like it. Is it possible to get this on a custom ROM? Can I just back it up/ restore it with adb?
Apologies if this is already documented elsewhere.
