[NEWS] X8 officially supported by CyanogenMod !!

The CyanogenMod and FreeXperia team is happy to announce CyanogenMod support for multiple Xperia™ devices.
Users of Sony Ericsson devices have been left out of the CyanogenMod experience for a while now. We are happy to announce that users will be able to enjoy a full-fledged CyanogenMod with nearly full hardware support (we are still working on FM radio) starting in our next release. You can also expect nightly builds and more instructions soon.
Supported XPERIA™ handsets:
2010 phones:
- Xperia X10
- Xperia X8
- Xperia X10 Mini
- Xperia X10 Mini Pro
2011 phones:
- Xperia Arc
- Xperia Neo
- Xperia Mini
- Xperia Mini Pro
- Xperia Play
- Xperia Ray

Andreas Makris (Bin4ry), Diogo Ferreira (defer) and Alin Jerpelea (jerpelea, FXP) will be maintaining these devices from now on.
We would like to stress that work on the 2011 lineup would not have been possible without the strong involvement of Sony Ericsson with the developer community. In addition to providing unlockable bootloaders to all new devices, they provided us both with devices and technical expertise that proved invaluable in making all this happen.

OH
oh finaly something awesome... without any bugs OR BATTERY eating roms!

Guys, come and say thank to jerpelea (or FXP) and FreeXperia Team, or buy them some beers. He's been working very hard to be able to merge our Xperia series to CM.
It is still early in development, so many things still need to be done before our nightlies can be officially built.

Whats the advantage of this?

uhm. we will get our own nightly build? I think so.

This is a good news for everyone, wew.. haha...
Hope this will keep running and "WISHING GET A ICE CREAM SANDWICH because i want it" haha... Keep waiting.... (But why the blogs of cyanogenmod doesn't update our phone??)

have you read the post from the link ?
"you may be interested in knowing that the upcoming CyanogenMod release will feature support for 10 new devices"
just wait for the release

whats the diference between CM and gingerDX? does it have more stuff? faster? batterybug-less? or is it just a great news because it means better support for ours X8s?

Upcoming? 7.2 or earlier? Cant wait

yes some one please tell me the advantages of this?
does this mean a fully stable cm7 rom?

it meens more advanced developers working together to make there own CM version

If I understood dx well, our FXP's rom will be officially supported by CyanogenMod and will get all the official updates as soon as possible.
Or CyanogenMod devs and FXP will build it together?
Anyway, great news and be patient... we have everything now

Sorry for the noob question, but I can't perfectly understand...
What to mean "official"? Its a CM7 upgrade from Cyanogenmod, and its a "Custom" ROM? Or CM team works together with SE, and everyone can upgrade to CM7 with the SE PC Companion?
(I think ist a Cyanogen upgrade...)

Wow, it keeps on getting better for us

Development Suggestions for X10 {championswimmer}

Ok, so it's not like this that I have 23 hours of free time each day, and it's not that any and every suggestion that pops up on this thread will be looked into, but I just wanted to ask you guys...
What new do you want on the X10?
I'll update the list below as and when people keep submitting their requests/suggestions
Of course please refrain from posting things like
"I want Windows 8 to run on my X10"
I want some suggestions that are at least 'plausible' if not 'possible'
-------------------------------------
1. Get camera working on ICS/CM9/AOKP
2. Dual boot gb and ics
3. CM7 kernel based on latest FXP125 sources with more features
4. CM7 and CM9 kernels for locked bootloaders
5. Xperia S ics rom port
6. JellyBean for X10 (in distant future, so not thinking of it right now)
-------------------------------------

I wanna ask you if you can build a kernel based on fxp125 cm7 kernel with additional governors, oc etc. Just like your previous one but based on updated by fxp 125 one. Thanks
Sent from my X10i using xda app-developers app

Not asking for me but build cm7/cm9 based kernel for locked bootloader ( I am already unlocked lol). I dont know if its possible

I know that it will be an impossible work....but :
porting Jelly Bean for x10i..... Obviously the hardware features of the x10 are those....so you may try to bring the technical prescriptions of design or setting
thxxx

Focus on ICS ..
I think we have enough GB based roms..

It's jealy bean time beach!!!
Send from beneath my cloak of magic

I think your suggestions of a working camera and locked bootloader kernals would be great

1. Get camera working on ICS/CM9/AOKP

Dual booting ics along with gingerbread.. make gingerbread kernel default and we can boot ics by killing it.. something like that!!!
Sent from my SO-01C using xda app-developers app

For me its fantastic if anyone port Xperia s ics to our x10

I believe making ICS kernel default would be better and getting the camera to work on ICS/CM9/AOKP.

Lord give us a team KTG 3.x kernel for ics. Whoops, wrong thread... jk. I would love it if you assisted tsuyou kou and the KTG team with their kernel development, as i believe the last commit to the 2.6.32.9 kernel was 1 month ago. Not bashing their work or asking for etas. Just hoping they can get more devs (assuming they want help of course...)
Cheers

seeing that cyanogenmod has released their official CM 9 for around 40 devices, would it possible to make a port of that to the x10? I might sound like an idiot, but that seems easier than building an entire ROM from scratch...

that will b awesome if all xperia S ICS goodies work on x10..

FPS unlock and camera on ICS would be awesome ! Just improve your AOKP and your kernels Champ, it's already really great ...

It's kinda off topic and useless, but I sent Sony Mobile an email about
camera sources (jni/wrapper).
You guys did a much better and well written topic, but maybe we can get something.
Just to ask, is buying/donating for Sony a possibility? In last case, would it be legally plausible, expensive?

if u could get some jelly bean apps working on x10 would be nice. the new keyboard and galary maybe.. oh xperia keyboard if u cant get jelly bean working with CM 7.2

I think you should stick with Ubuntu 13.04 or else Linux Mint 15
Because bbqlinux its hard to install some updates. Compiling gives alot of errors. I'm switching my OS on Ubuntu 13.04 by this friday

Yup. If can i will start from scratch

@Hashy what happened to your old Kernel and ROM that you would start from scratch ?? I mean any reason for that ?? y not continue dev. cuz that would be easier and faster isn't it.. did the old ROM boot ? did you boot into 4.3 yet I mean through any means ?

Because i was using Some of Legacy Xperia commits for my kernel. And the dev don't allow anyone to copy his work

I think that you can not compete . You should create together---> it is better---> Have a good rom with kernel than 2 ragged rom with 2 kernel. But mike can work on rom and you can work on kernel This is just my opinion sorry for bad english!

And that's the reason why we don't have 3.4 kernel and 4.3 ROM yet. It's because nobody wants to share work with others or work together on one kernel and one ROM. Anyway i wish you all luck.

hmmm.. unity is strength.. Xperia play is no more about Cosmic Dans Turbo Kernel.. or Lupus's Kernel.. or AOKP or CyanagenMod.. (I mean all this in a good way) we need a "ROM" 4.2/4.3 for Xperia Play and a "Kernel" for Xperia Play.. the brand, the dev, no matters no more.. and the way things are,, I really think dev's should team up to make one Good Rom.. and One Good Kernel.. cuz I don't think Xperia Play would last till Android 6.0 .. so just this device one good last push.. and see how things work out. Split work will only increase/duplicate work.. delay the ROM/Kernel and maybe the ROM would never get rid of bugs.

Guys I don't think teaming up is going to happen, the old thread got deleted so I can't show you any of the stuff that happened. But it got pretty nasty so lets not bring working together up and just focus on getting a stable 4.3 build for our Xperia Play's

Actually yes that seems like a good idea, as 4.3 is only a minor update of 4.2 and people have had success on the play before building 4.2 (without wifi though). But my main concern is being ready for 4.4, which if it is as ram light as everyone says and runs just as fast as gingerbread as everyone is saying, would be perfect for our Xperia Play's. But beggars can't be choosers as I always say

Probably you haven't understand the problem: the problem wasn't you using some of the lxp's commits, the problem was you not asking permissions like everyone else; now probably mike want let you use his work as a base, but it isn't because he is selfish and didn't allow the other people to use his work, it is because you go against the common rule

Xperia lollipop for titan

I have heard Xperia is getting lollipop updates it possible to make a rom for our phone with that.. Development in our device is promising.. I'm not a developer though. . Its just a .request. .

Xperia z3

Do you mean a Xperia-themed rom? Because there's one right now in the Android Development of this forum.

What? Xperia Lollipop ROMs are just for Xperia devices, as far as i know, Sony is not going to make Xperia Lollipop a open source thing, if Xperia M2 receive an official Lollipop update, we can try to port it, as its the same hardware. we can surely have an Xperia Themed ROM, but i don't know why would someone do that, Xperia Lollipop is ugly as hell (in my opinion)

As I said, we already have a Xperia-themed rom, based in the latest stock. I don't like it but different strokes for different folks, I guess.

Lexodus ROM is the one with Xperia themes.. But it still isn't quite that much Xperia..
Its ok just felt like asking so did cause I'm bored of the stock lollipop

I'm sure many here will not see this as a "bad bad bad news". Having an official lollipop firmware in a 2.5 old device is more than anyone could ask for. Having a solid 5.1.1 build is better than having the latest build.
More than happy with the support from SONY,and more than enough to stay on the ship

I agree with you i hope our best dev make a stock rom for z and z1 based at android 6.0 for LB and UB

Creating Android M for LBL is not possible bcoz it'll need custom kernel. I think our devs'll give some test builds on next 1-2 weeks, AOSP code'll be published in 2-3 days

I'm not surprised. It's fantastic that we even got 5.1, the Z is so old now. All good things come to an end
But what I am wondering, if someone will port 6.0 AOSP... Not CyanogenMod or other forks, they are always unstable and breaking things. And will take a long time anyway.
Sent from Xperia Z via Tapatalk

I'm very happy with the updates we have had and hope that I get 2.5 years of updates on my Z5 most people would have upgraded by now anyway however if I didn't have a phone I would happily purchase the XZ. It's been a damm good phone even with a locked bootloader.

the bootloader is directly connected to the TA Partition and every phone has a unique one so its impossible to change from yes to no
