Ubuntu Phone for Sola ? - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Is there anyone trying to install Ubuntu Phone Sola? I wonder if we can install it. I have seen someone that installed Ubuntu on other Xperia.

You need to build it from source for Sola.

Wait for cm10.1 for sola to get stable first.
Then I think ubuntu phone will then be more likely to happen.

Hahahahaha. That's right. Good explanation. Anyway, I am gonna sell it out and get away.

even if cm10.1 gets stable.. making a stable ubuntu will take extreme level of expertise...there is some major problem related to ril in ubuntu (not sure if its solved now)

i think never

Hey, I successfully built Ubuntu Touch for my Xperia P nypon but somethings mixed up with the blobs. The display is not working because surfaceflinger is crashing with a segmentation fault.
I think with TeamCanjis efforts Ubuntu Touch is indeed possible on our xperia devices.

if you're looking to compile only jellybean and future builds, ubuntu 12.04 will be fine.

[Q] Will 2011 line get PA4.3?

I'm just wondering if xperia 2011 mdpi line will get a taste of paranoid android (PA4) ?
Also, can i build from sources? And how if i'm on a 32-bit machine?

PAC ROM 4.4.2 for all mdpi, by bro langes:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=50939230
for building you need to run any sort of linux. & its not that easy (need knownledge, the repo is also about 40 gig's) also 32bit is not the problem only it will take many hours to build then bcuz of low ram....
for further info check the official PAC-site, there also downloads for 2011 line

Thanks for ur reply!
I know about Pac, I running the latest ion build..
I'm talking about pure pa4..
Btw I was told that its impossible to build android 4.1+ on 32-bit machines..
Can u confirm that my 32-bit Ubuntu can successfully build pa4..?
Its kinda difficult to test myself as u said the sources are ~ 40GiB..

I don't think so. AFAIK ,the compiler required for JB+ ROMs is 64 bit only. Therotically, you can try an old 32 bit compiler(older NDK) and "try" to compile. and It might just compile .But practical implications may vary :angel: . Switching to 64-bit is easier..

I've made a mini research and found from many sources exactly the same thing..Anyways i'll probably wait for someone with knowledge and a 64-bit machine to build PA4..
i'm poring PA and it will be out soon.

Cm posts all their kernel source. Slim roms require a custom kernel. I build slim for a few devices and cm kernels seldom work so without the kernel source for the device it may not be an option.
I'm in! haha been using SlimKat on my i9100G so quite some times already

download the caf kernel sources (can't remember which tag. 3.5.2.2?), map the kernel source from the device config as usual.
then make bootimage (which will install the headers),
finally, remove the configs for source built kernel, and map the dt image and zImage
the compiling is making it further and further...hopefully it won't break
BUILD FINISHED! http://forum.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-mi-3/orig-development/rom-slimkat-t2846759
I'm pretty sure I can build OmniROM. Anyone interested in that? (High chance of it not working though)
don't worry Just do it

well it will go like kit kat
once it is officially released, someone would then release its sources and then someone would create the rom for our device
hope @munjeni returns for our xperias
It'd be really increadible to see working Lollipop on Xperia P, a 2012 phone with newest software? I'll take it The devs don't have all the source codes for hardware, so I imagine optimizing for our devices won't be buttery smooth (as it isn't with Kitkat either)

The ROM File size is 128 MB, so I split the file into 3 parts :

128mb? for lollipop? i don't think so...kitkat rom is over 200 mb...so it's totally fake....also sourses are few days relesed, and devs in Xperia U Dev Thread said that we have no such skilled professionals to build even alpha rom so fast...
by the way, look at the screenshot on that link....build number is KOT49H, which stands for Android 4.4.2...
this all was my IMHO

This thing is BS and master of Fakes!
Lollipop (somewhat) working on S3 Mini, which uses the same SoC as XP!

Will Xperia Sola get the Android Lollipop update ?
Yeah, like kitkat
Sent from my Xperia Sola using XDA Free mobile app
Thats gonna be tough job for our devs as they are not experts as what is needed. (No offence to anyone)
We need more devs like @ - percy_g2 and @ - munjeni for this project.
I'm already seeing some Lollipop branches coming out and some commits on github.

I don't think Sola will be able to handle Lollipop properly,because of the low RAM and old GPU.
Lollipop is full of visual overhaul and animations.
My Xperia Sola on ICS has no lags and 120mb free ram now wihout task killer.
Xperia U has same specs and android Lollipop (Previev) is now available for this phone

How install L in xperia p ?
Android Lollipop is not available on Xperia P.
really?? check this http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...roid-source-project-5-0-xperia-t2933194/page4
This is for xperia U not P
But it is so awesome to see android l on this small weak wonder phone before other high end phones

Android 5.0 request

I don't want to be missunderstood.
I do recognize all the work from our developers, altough they are only few... Unfortunately i only know how to port roms..
so can anyone of you guys give a shot to create a lollipop build ?

We have 3 daily drivers right now, Crystal is the best so far because of the camera, but still, we have 3 cm11 builds
Is cm12 out? I think making 4.4.4 builds is easier becouse we have sources from lg. Dont know about 5.0 with kernels and drivers and all must be harder for our device at this point.

Cm12 isnt out yet, theres "cm12" based on clean aosp compiled with cm sources
Its unofficial build so cm team has nothing with it
It might be unstable and isnt for daily usage
Cm Has announced that cm12 will come next month
But the best way is to pray for official 5.0 because updated kernel might fix problems we have right now
