[Help] Xperia 2011 series drivers & JB port - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys seems Sony has not fullfilled its promise of giving software update for 12 months & so there is no official rls of jelly bean for the sony devices. All the developers in the thread say without the drivers for these devices there will be no further rls of jb, i myself like sony alot and want sony's version of jelly bean for my phone. So i would like to request the developers here to give ideas and help in building the drivers for these devices and to make a debrand engine jb of sony, i currently own xperia ray and i love my phone it's bravia engine, xLoud engine and especially the camera - that are the features for which i bought this phone. Recently a petition has been signed by the device owners also but that dosen't seem to do any good so as a final way i am asking this of the developers here. I'm not a real developer so i couldn't contribute to the developement but i'm no noob, i promise that if any step was taken i would be the first alpha tester and test the rom to help you guys fix the bugs. I hope someone starts this project soon :fingers-crossed:

BOOTED!-[COLLABORATIVE DEV PROJECT] Port Jelly Bean to Xperia U from Galaxy SIII Mini

THREAD CLOSED AND MOVED TO http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2092493
Just like the Xpera P & Sola I've also considered to make a Thread....for the Port Jelly Bean to Xperia U from Galaxy SIII Mini :good:
It's know that our Xperia U is a ST-Ericcson device (with Novathor u8500 SoC chipset) and right now, i'm pretty sure that Sony will provide Jelly Bean for our device next year. But, we also know that there out is a device with our same chipset and Jelly Bean at launch. Yes, i'm talking about Samsung Galaxy SIII Mini. I have been talking with some users on their forum and i think some information can help us to port jelly bean to our Xperia U.
So, here are some files which can help us to make a working Jelly Bean Rom on our device:
1. I want to thanks nixonik member to provide a full system dump of SGSIIIMini in here System dump.
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B-S6Srr0cFRdX0pRVEd6cDVsb00/edit
2. Jelly Bean open source code for this rom, provided by Samsung.
in HERE http://d-h.st/c1n
Now that would be really great if some devs step up to initiate this.
Thanks to espaciosalter20 for the idea

XU haven't got the same chipset as S3 mini
Read the thread in the sola forum and that will answer your concerns about chipset
And im in, i'll help anyway i can
So, could we have it? It would be AWESOME!
I can test the rom or anything you want. If i can do something to help, i'm here, although i'm not a dev

Yea,They do!
Have a look at "Utilizing Devices" Row/Column (Last on from the right) (First Row )
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NovaThor
if you guys need tester with locked bootloader, I'm here
For that we need a kernal for JB.. If kernal is there then JB is possible

Zip or source method ?
Source i believe after reading through sola thread
dint want to spam this thread but couldn't stop my excitement....yayyyyy :laugh::good:
I think FXP just have a bootable JB CM10 for XU. They just don't release it because they have to focus on CM9.
I think we should, also, try to make a port of 3.4 kernel basing it on igloo community sources. You can find it on their site! (There are also all the instruction on how to sync repos and how to compile.)

Have any of you seen this video? Android 4.1 Jelly Bean now running on NovaThor U8500 reference chipset
3.4 kernel is also coming to our devices
my source told me that it will come with the jellybean update, and that's why it takes some longer to release.
it will be an easy port to the xperia u and sola then

[Q] Vanillla JB 4.2 for Xperia Ray - is it possible?

Is it possible to somewhere and somewhen to get ROM with Vanilla Jelly Bean 4.2 for Xperia Ray? ...any hope in the future?
I tried CM10 but there are lot of bugs. I've been used Galaxy Nexus with JB4.2. It is great OS, no need to any improvements. How difficult is to port the same for Xperia Ray? What should be done (how much work?) for it?
There is already a ROM based on android 4.2 in the Ray development forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1803076
But it will be even more buggy due to the lack of sources and camera libs...
According to FXP team... The toughest part is the camera and updraded development of 4.2 kernel

[Idea]Port AvatarROM based on CM10.1

Hello, I create this topic to comment about this rom, the cm10.1 rom: AvatarRom.
I was discussing with a friend of the community LG optimus me (my old phone) and told me he had port the avatar rom to LG. As I had no idea about that rom then search and found this:
http://avatarrom.com/downloads/
Are the roms zip flasheables without bugs. and it turns out that among the teams that have this rom the Xperia S, a brother of the Xperia phone U, which has also led bar.
I was thinking about porting the rom, I was not to carry much, if any developer knows something about porting could try to coordinate and finally get a stable rom JB.
Xperia S boasts CM10 rom avatar (JB 4.1) and cm10.1 (JB 4.2).
Also, in case we cant port this rom , i create a request at the official website of Avatar rom. Need the vote (with a maximum of 3 votes) and comment . need to do to get attention request. If you have more than one email can vote more than one time. It takes 2 minutes.
http://avatarrom.uservoice.com/forums/193652-avatarrom-feature-request/suggestions/3732697-rom-request-please-create-a-xperia-u-rom
Sorry for my bad english.
What the hell? Wrong section and you probably don't know, that Xperia U has Novathor chipset without sources....we would have to have a Jelly Bean base in order to port it. Soon, Xperia P, Go will get Jelly Bean update from Sony and the FXP is gonna release CM10 in few weeks.
