CyanogenMod Native Support - XPERIA X8 General

I was randomly looking through webpages when I found this: www.cyanogenmod.com/devices/sony-ericsson-xperia-x8
It looks like CM has native support for the X8 since 2011.
Is this MiniCM or something like that or is this actually something the CM team made?

xperia x8 has an official CM7 rom. you can even download it from cyanogenmod's official website.

Heres some hierarchy nAa is a member of FreeXperia and FreeXperia is the maintainer of Xperia phones in CyanogenMod. In short??

Wow sounds cool. Going to check it out.

Hey there!
I think you should still make the thread in the OrigDev section, but with some tags like [Alpha]\[Beta]\[Test]\smthing. Because a lot of people (myself included), who like flashing, just ignore the General and Q&A sections, and go straight to Dev\OrigDev. You might get more testers this way
PS: Thx for the ROM, I'll try to test it later this week =)
Everething is ok

Official AOSP project for Xperia Z1, Z1 Compact, Z Ultra, Z2, and Z2 soon?

I think I have good news for some of you
There are some hints, that there will be official AOSP support from sony for our devices soon.
For all of you, who don't know: There is a official AOSP project for a few sony devices.
Our problem: Our devices aren't supported (yet?).
But there are good news:
1. The Sony Xperia Developer World github account has forked the rhine-common device tree from FreeXperia/Cyanogenmod. That means they are not uninterested.
2. It gets better: Alin Jerpelea, a member of the Sony Xperia Open Source team and member of FreeXperia, will give a talk about the future of the Sony AOSP support at xda devcon in half a month.
3. And now the best: The github repositority for Sony AOSP kernel recently got a new branch, which is at the same caf tag like our 14.4.A.108 kernel
I am really hoping this becomes truth in near future
Sources:
http://developer.sonymobile.com/201...-mobile-innovation-with-us-at-xdadevcon-2014/
https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/kernel-copyleft/commits/14.4.A.0.xxx
https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/kernel/tree/aosp/LNX.LA.3.5.1-01110-8x74.0
https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/android_device_sony_rhine-common
UPDATE: the latest git commits are proving it, we will get official aosp support
UPDATE: the latest commits prove that z2 and it's variants will also get official aosp(with the same kernel sources as us, congrulations)
That would be great :good:
Does this mean better camera drivers and stuff?

First 4.3" high-end device and now official AOSP? Sony, you might just make me a Sony fanboy
Does that mean that it could be possible to flash aosp based roms with locked bootloader? Or am I completely wrong here?
AFAIK the repository for current AOSP devices from sony does not contain camera drivers (and others). So don't expect to much from this news.

Unfortunately not
See the latest commits at the git. They are proving the new kernel branch is for sony devices

If I'm reading the commits right, and I'd like to think that I am, then we are witnessing the official AOSP bring-up for the rhine-platform!
There's over a thousand lines of new camera code here: https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/kernel/commit/f721c1a0585ab6b9d3eb75a84bc2cf79a7813741
Get excited guys!

That are the same drivers as from the stock kernel, don't expect these commits to increase our camera.

:laugh:
The newest commits are hinting on aosp for z2 aswell
Holy $h13!
How did i not see that before!?
I wasn't interested in devcon all that much. However, now since i know something like official aosp support might be announced there, I can't wait!
SONY GIB UNS AOSP UNTERSTÜTZUNG JETZT!
Sorry, couldn't handle the excitement
Its now official for Z1 and Z2 ! :laugh:
Xperia™ Z2 and Xperia™ Z1 added to AOSP for Xperia on GitHub
And somes good news for our Z1 compact plus other devices :
Xperia Z1 and Z2 added to AOSP for Xperia project; plus unified kernel announced
official ground for AOSP, sweet
I have a question.
Is there any benefits from this for people who has phone with locked bootloader and with -no allowed status? Or i just can congrats people who has unlocked bootloader?

[CM Mod] [Z2/Pro] CyanogenMod build regroup thread

Hello,
So now we have the Z2 sources, Z2 Pro should come soon as-well, it would be great to start building ourselves a nice CM13 or RR. Sadly I am fully booked for the 2 next weeks and as it's my first CM build (despite I builded some ASOP already), it's going to take me a long time. So the goal of this thread is just to regroup and share the files so we can get ASAP to something stable.
Do we have the sources from the chinese CM13 Z2 Pro build ?
Thanks all !
I would love to contribute, but i'm a bit busy, too. It would be nice if someone could create a git for this project following the rules from cyanogenmod, to get this Phone an official release some time soon.
