Questions to Android on Micro PC Sony Vaio UX Series - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I've just tried the 1.6 Port of Android on my Sony Vaio UX1n.
Run's good but I have a few questions:
- Is there any chance to use the touchscreen of the Sony UX?
- Is it possible to install android on the Memorystick or CF-Card instead of the USB-Drive?
It would be such a great fast Android machine
Thank you for any help, tips etc.

I have bought a used but as good as new ux390N today. Could you share your knowledge about how youbwere able to port and run android on your device? Thanks in advance.

[Q] Avaya Flare

I just got a batch of the Avaya Flare Experience tablets... They sent us ten of them as a part of a major order. (it was cheaper to get the package)
Since these are Android-based, I figure there has to be a way to root them.
Anyone interested in working on this?
I have carte blanche since no one wants one while they're all Avaya'ed up.
If they're rooted as regular Android tablets, I'm sure my team will be interested in them.
Unfortunately, I have no idea where to begin.
Any thoughts on breaking the startup sequence or where to start with rooting these?
Thanks!

Played around the device on my office was able to load an x86 android live usb boot a bit buggy cam not working and some other stuffs but since the infra project was scrapped its much usable than stock firmware. Not realy sure but if the divers were properly loaded and the usb image repacked with flare drivers would eliminate the bugs in any case its a nice tablet to tinker with
here are some proof of concept pics and stuffs , and yeah need a usb keyboard for input, a usb mouse can also be attach , wifi working, touch working, some games will not run/crash since majority of stuff on google play is not optimized / coded for x86
What was the software that you used ? that version?

VegaCream RC2 on Avent Vega and USB keyboards?

VegaCream RC2 on Avent Vega and USB keyboards?
Dear 'all',
I am an avid computer enthusiast, but a novice to android.
Recently purchased 10.1 Advent Vega Tabliet PC which had the original Android HARMONY 2.2 FRF91 20110211.101539 OS.
Tried 'HoneyIceRC3Chimera Android 3' which was great and I could connect and use a USB external keyboard, which is great as
I can 'touch type.' I found the 'HoneyIceRC3Chimera' not totaly stable over a long period of time and then installed the VegaCream RC2
Android version 4.0.4 which is brilliant and I have found this OS totally stable! unfortunately I don't see that I can connect a USB external keyboardwith this OS. I am an Android novice who is a quick learner. Could somejone please advise or direct me to the the most stable
Android for myVega which utilises the latest Android version it can and can also connect to a USB keyboard. Tall order, but you guys
are the experts compared to me! (at present!)
Patience and advice appreciated!

From 5.1 Lollipop to 8.1 Oreo -> is this possible?

Hi there,
Probably a silly question, I have a SGP312 and it is on Lollipop since 3 years, do you think is there a way to upgrade to the latest Android 8.1?
If not 8.1, what would be the highest version I can go and how?
The Tablet is essentially a stock one, I never did anything on it, just applied the Sony updates they made available for this old model.
Thank you,
Alex

Hello!
It's quite possible to install even the latest 8.1, though it is still not that stable now.
If you want 99% bug-free experience, i would stick to android 7.1.2, like Resurrection Remix ROM till 8.1 gets to a polished state.
Check this guide for installing custom ROMs on device.
Thank you for the link!
I will give it a try very soon.

Hi buddies,
I have a Sony Xperia Tablet Z (Model: SGP321) with Lollipop v5.0.2.
I had rooted it since a couple of years, so no need to say, it couldn't be upgraded to any higher version of android.
Now I unrooted it and wanna upgrade its android.
My questions:
1. What's the highest Android version officially released for this model?
2. What's the best version you advise me to install on it?
Thanks for your kind & prompt reply.
Cheers,
Leon

Hello!
1. The latest official firmware is android 5.1.1 (v.10.7.A.0.222 or 10.7.A.0.228 depending on region, though internally they are identical).
You can update via xperia-companion software.
2. What's the best only you can say. If stock sony one works good for you, stick to it.
If you have knowledge how to install, and want to try something "custom", there are firmwares based on android 7.1.2 and 8.1 on this forum.
The media players on my Xperia sgp312 keep pausing, has it got something to do with the software, I am still on Android 5.1.1

HELP! SE Xperia Mini Pro u20i

I have just acquired SE Xperia Mini Pro u20i. It was sealed, new in it's box and so had never been turned on, never received any firmware updates, nothing.
It is running Android 1.6!! There is no support for the phone anymore and there is no support for this version of Android. Therefore nothing works on the phone - I can't install apps, I can't use anything other than the stock internet browser, nothing.
I had grand plans to root and update the OS but I cannot find a single sensible place to start.
Please can someone help me? I have minimal rooting experience so links with a couple of instructions would be much appreciated. Once I'm rooted I feel like I can manage on my own, it's just getting to that stage seems impossible, is it???

I would like to help you!
You can search for applications for android 1.6!
If you do not have a file manager or app installer then install the applications via flashtool!!!
The Xperia X10 Mini Pro U20i has a 600 MHz clocked single core ARMv6 CPU and 256 MB RAM. There is no way to make it work with versions of Android above ~4.4.4 Kit Kat as there is no enough RAM and CPU power.
Also the U20i is older than smartphones of this XDA forum category (Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro SK17i, Ray ST18i, etc.) so there is no way to make the U20i work with ROMs dedicated to any of these models. And as far as I know there is no forum category dedicated to U20i. There seems to be an Android 2.1 based custom ROM for this device (link) but flashing it would not help with browsing and lack of compatibility with most of the nowadays applications as it still is a very old version of Android.
Free Applications for Android 1.6 can be found at this site: http://www.mobyware.org
