Hi, My name is Mohamed.
You may know me as @moman2000. I am the creator of Project ROC. Project ROC is a custom version of Remix OS for PC. It includes features such as: Deodex, Debloat, Root (SuperSU 2.78), Xposed Framework and apps such as Adaway, CM (CyanogenMod) File Manager and GAPPS. Project RPC will be very similar to what Project RPC is, the only main difference being that Project RPC can be run (virtualised) in Windows.
This thread is not only about the announcment of Project RPC but also what you guys, the community, want to see in Project RPC. Bear in mind that I will not be making custom apps and mods, although that may happen in the future. Feature requests such as, "Can you include Flashify?" and "Can you integrate Viper4Android?" are acceptable. Project RPC will be updated as soon as the official updates for Remix Player come out, of course .
This thread will be updated with new feature requests.
Remember be realistic with your feature requests, and think, "will I actually use this feature and how often will I use it".
Regards,
Mohamed

Hello,
always a pleasure to have an enthusiast joining the ranks.
You may want to check out the ROM development (the whole platform OR a kernel alone). Some links for you to start with
[Sony Open Device Project](https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/) - this would be the starting point for anyone wishing to deal with the Android software; provides the guides for building full fledged AOSP and mainline kernel
[Sony Xperia developers Github](https://github.com/sonyxperiadev) - the repository for all the code necessary for AOSP and kernel; it is a "wiki" for further development steps; issues are discussed in [https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/bug_tracker]
[Sony AOSP builds with some additions](https://github.com/SonyAosp) - the AOSP code repository with forked sources from XperiaDev Github and with some additions that make the builds more usable (TWRP as a default recovery, OpenGApps already included, etc.); a great resource for a deeper dive into the intricacies of the building-from-source flow; can be used to compare with the barebone AOSP from the official XperiaDev and learn some insights
[LineageOS Wiki](https://wiki.lineageos.org/) - an enthusiast may want to build a Lineage OS instance for the device on his own, the wiki is a great start.
You also might want to get familiar with the followings as a references:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/chef-central/android/guide-android-rom-development-t2814763 - an XDA complete guide to AOSP building
https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/xda-university/literature-reading-getting-aosp-t3268211 - a collection of references for further insights
https://review.lineageos.org - LineageOS Gerrit platform for a better understanding of the build flow from the perspective of commits
https://github.com/omnirom/Docs/blob/master/Porting_Omni_To_Your_Device.md - a guide to porting an OmniROM to a given device; may be used as another reference to better understand the buidling flow
https://www.aicp-rom.com/ - AICP project home; another source of information for AOSP porting
https://github.com/AndroPlus-org - a reference for kernel development
Happy coding!
Intro
I'll start with this important note: this will likely be interesting to a small subset of users as it 1) does cost money to deploy and run this cloud infrastructure in AWS 2) requires a bit more technical knowledge to get this up and running than most things on XDA 3) the OS build process maintains verified boot with your own custom keys which means things like root/magisk are not a good fit. Anyways, I've created a cross platform tool, rattlesnakeos-stack, that allows you to build your own customized Android OS for Google Pixel phones using AWS cloud infrastructure. The default OS that this tools builds without any customizations is called RattlesnakeOS, which is really just AOSP with very minor additions. If there is something you don't like about the default OS, you can add customizations on top of it or start with a completely blank slate and build your own OS.
Features
Support for Google Pixel phones
Based on latest AOSP 11.0
Software and firmware security updates delivered through built in OTA updater
Maintains verified boot with a locked bootloader just like official Android but with your own personal signing keys
Support for building latest stable Chromium browser and webview
Support for custom OS builds
If any of that sounds interesting to you, head over to the README for full setup, build, customization, and flashing instructions. Also, feel free to stop by our matrix room RattlesnakeOS (#ros.matrix.org).

That's fun.Stared it on github.
Firstly, I Apologize in advance. I know this might sound ungrateful to those who have already built so many cutom roms for this device. But let me ask those whoever read this nonetheless.
Some of you might know Paranoid Android or better known as AOSPA. I think this ROM deserve more love for our device, with how much love developers put behind this project. Not to mention the history behind it. It doesn't mean other roms are bad or something. I've been searching for the latest build but only found the abandoned one. I don't have the knowledge or the gear to build one.
So I ask you, kindly who might read this and have the required knowledge. Would you mind take your time and check the sources of said rom? If it tickles your fancy, I would be grateful if you could build it as well. By the way, the ROM is based on CAF.
These are the sources of said ROM
