PORTING - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

FROM WHAT PHONE I CAN DO THIS PORT?!
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1908008
Thanks!
ANd can someone give me some site where i can learn something about developing and other things!?

You need to search a phone with almost the same specs as ours. So and qualcomm cpu and set and an adreno 320.
Also an personal opnion: Dont open these threads if you have not read properly since all the needed intel can be found here on XDA

according to my experience.
firstly you needed find a phone that have same build id. for example: our cm10.1 is JDQ39E but in some devices it is JDQ39 so you need to find device with the same device to ours.
and secondly same procie. i mean same core processor, but its better if there is exactly same cpu.
and third. find the device with same resolution with ours, i mean its Full HD or XHDPI devices.

You ported MIUI from sources?!
Where you learnt to do this?!

MIUI for Xperia SP im using patchrom with manually edited.
But long time ago on xperia U, im using that ported method.

[ROM] [JB] AOSP for the Xperia T [AOSP] [NEW]

This is an AOSP build for the Sony Xperia T.
What is AOSP?
AOSP is the Android Open Source Project. It is the code that Google releases to the public to build upon.​
What does this ROM do?
This ROM is the AOSP sources compiled so they would run on our device. It is similar and different to how CyanogenMod and other source compiled ROMs work. The interface will be the same, the overall feel of the ROM will be the same. However, unlike other custom ROMs there are no options. There are no settings to play around with. It's just a pure Google Experience. Think of it as using the ROM that comes as stock on a Nexus device - it is exactly that. It's superfast and just how Google intended​
Working:
All core and important functions of the ROM - WiFi, Bluetooth, RIL, Mobile Data. Camera etc.​
Not working:
There will inevitably be some bugs. I've played with it for a few days and I couldn't fin anything glaringly broken in my usage. However, I fully expect there to be minor problems here and there - please feel free to report on this thread.​
Download:
ROM - 24/08/2012 - Download
GApps - Download​
The kernel source for this ROM can be found at https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_kernel_sony_msm8x60
Thanks to:
FreeXperia Team and codeworkx for their awesome work on the device tree and kernel​

Have I already linked this one? If not I will do soon.

Can you test the prox sensor during a phone call and see if the screen comes on when pulled away from your ear? Interested in AOSP options if things are solid. Thanks for the ROM tilal.
I know this wasn't suppose to work on TX, but I tried it on my TX anyways
Screen in recovery is upside down
and I get "Status 7" error on flashing the zip
Thank you,
I think that it should work also on TX .
just install it with another kernel
-----
i think that Status 7 has to do something with the update.zip .

Could you share what kernel you used?
Tried it with AOKP and image still upside down. When android boots, no touch screen works.
I have an xperia S...but a user asked if a xperia S rom works on the xperia SL...and the rom that was made for Xperia S...also worked on SL ..
and i think he also recived the error 7 thing..
Wow this is exciting news, whats the verdict on this one then, any issues. Is it silky smooth!!?

ok,
seems interesting but im not that optimistic about it(firefox os)...
I'm not interested in this thing, so I'm neutral. As I see feherneoh have more knowledge about android than the most "dev", but I don't know this is enough or not to reach his own goals.
Try to be optimistic, maybe another dev join to this project.

Haha, look what I found, first Firefox os phone is made by ZTE which is using an arm6 processor & 250 MB of ram .
So it's compatible with a6 CPU & maybe our tiny RAM memory

From what I have read it seems that Firefox os will be for low budget devices,but the low budget device before 2(maybe 3) years(x8) and the low budget now are very different...lets wait

[DEV][PORT][4.2.2]Sense 5 from HOX

Hello,as many of you know ,that here was no updates made for a long time ,but i was working on this ROM with the help of Adam77Root ,Ive tried a lot of different combos of the Build, a lot of logging ,testing was done,but now Ive come to point where I ask any developer to help Porting this ROM to our for 4X ,so ive decided to make this an open development and publish current build.
NOTE: THIS FOR DEVELOPERS ONLY,THE ROM IS NOT BOOTING
CURRENT STATE:
This Port is based on CM10.1 stable with no /system/app.It has - repacked kernel, many imported libs and frameworks. The ROM was stuck at bootanimation all the time ,untill the last libhw_legacy.so was added and it got stuck at LG splash .

It is more than obvious that the rom will not boot ... No hard feelings!

Since you port from HOX and use Sense 4+, I assume it's the 4.1.1 version. It will be an enormous work.
Does this.boot or i need to test myself?
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
Small suggestion. EGL libs have no need to change also hw libs (for start) so first to get the rom booting and after that fixes...there is no need to pile all at once!
today i haven't got enough time to have a look at it sorry. i will do it before monday
You could ask dexter_nlb if he has some tipps for you.
Hope you will get that thing work

contacted him before this ,didnt answer yet ,priority is to get it booted now.
In reply to @Gmobilize for the PM, but others might also be interested:
This and similar ports are not impossible to do. It just needs a lot of work. We are in a good situation, because: 1. We have NEON instruction support (Nowadays almost all new devices have this, but it's a pain if one doesn't.) 2. The HOX is similar both in chipset and in screen size and resolution. 3. We have official JB.
These were the pros, now the cons: HOX JB is based on 4.1.1 and it's slightly different from 4.1.2. Many native libraries should be replaced, which should not cause a problem as the chipset is similar.
I have already worked on a port similar (Stock Samsung JB from Exynos 4 to Tegra 2, without NEON support -> it was really hard), but would not participate in this project right now (I'm intereseted, but have some other work atm.).
Regarding rumours, 4.2.2 with Sense 5 will land in July to the HOX, I would wait for that.
If you need any help with the project, I'm here. Some advices first: Don't flash the whole rom, rather do it one-by-one, i.e. first frameworks, fix the necessary natives, boot into system_server, let SystemUI and core services start app, add providers, add core apps then others. It is a time (and adb ) consuming port, but it has to be this way.

Do you have any experience in developing the ubuntu touch according to that porting guide?
I have no experience in developer Android, however I would like to begin the development in ubuntu touch.
I read through that porting guide, I found that it is hard and difficult for me to begin with it.
I'm not want to develop for Tablet Z, but Xperia S.
It has a developer who made/ported it to Xperia S, but recently he is busy with the other ROM which is CM10.1,
therefore the progress on ubuntu touch is held on.
I would like to 'repo' his CM10.1 source and try to develop the working device image for Xperia S,
However I Di not know where and how to start. I do not know what part of source is required.
According to the porting guide, it say the low level source code of CM10.1 is needed only, but I do not know which part is...
Totally idealess...
Sent from my SGP311 using xda app-developers app
Sorry, I have no experience in porting Ubuntu Touch. I could help you a bit with basic Linux Terminal commands and maybe in a few weeks with writing apps.
Maybe you can ask the dev of Ubuntu Touch for your device what you have to do.
You have said there is an existing port availiable? Have you tried updating this port?

The existing port is only applicable to raring preview, not anymore to the later phablet image.
I want to try port it to flipped phablet image.

incredible s architecture/cpu might be the same apart from that theres different sensors different emmc flash/ the list goes on and on, now the inc s uses similar audio drivers but apart from that the phone is too different to port from
---------- Post added at 11:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:37 AM ----------
the only reason i gave up trying to release updates was
1) cyanogenmod stoped supporting 7x30, a lot of their code is messed up and they wouldnt fix it
2) every time i repo synced cm tree, i had to hack the code for days on end to get things like camera, display, sound to work again...
3) android 4.3 uses opengl 3.0 and the current state of our adreno drivers was not very good, we couldnt get the new adreno drivers to work
4) mostly due to the kernel, eg htc ported over old code for the xl like the display panel code, it was too much work,
simply android 4.3 (cm10.2) will be extremly hard to get on our device, if not atall

Inc s, also named vivo using same kangbanged kernel as ace does"DHD" and most time to port will be display, the rest is not that hard and they're all using same CPU
An easy way to do cm ROMs would be using evervolv or cfx on bitbucket for /hardware related repos. Add it into a local_manifest and that would do it. I have a few you can get if you want. I have what's needed for rootbox and aokp in a manifest.
Synergy has a kernel for 4.3 that boots into ram console on ace, so its already a great step. I'm pretty sure that eventually it will be done after time

That's inaccurate. Android 4.3 provides support for Open GL 3.0, which is something completely different than saying it uses it.

Ion is related to msm_fb and that is related to mddi panel driver. Our panel driver is old, we use old msm_fb for that reason.

Youre wrong, pmem.c is still compiled under drivers/misc(or wherever it is) current jb kernel (k3.4 uses both ION & Pmem) latest kernel uses ION only
