[Q] Porting of Z1 Kernels / ROMs possible? - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

Hello,
after browsing the Z1 Forum I saw, that many of the Z Ultra Roms are outdated in comparison to the Z1.
I thought both devices got similar hardware? Why is there a big difference?
Is there an easy way to port roms/kernels from the z1 to our z ultra?

what is so special on xperia z or xperia design?

i bought 2 weeks ago a i9300. on i9300 android development much xperia z look roms, and i want know what is so special ? i find it generally xperia design & apps ugly and nothing special.
what do you guys think ?
For starters, Sony is very dev friendly and all of their devices have had the qualcomm SoC's meaning it makes for very good aosp roms. ^^
you can shower while using the xperia z. now that's hardcore for smartphone addicts.

It will only work on Samsung Touch Whiz roms. No chance of it on the ultra. You can't even use it on Samsung hardware while running AOSP roms.
By the way, here is not for asking question section.
and to answer you, S Note high possible need Samsung twframework-res.apk, which means not working.

There haven't been any announcements that I am aware of, we did get the 4.4.3 and 4.4.4 updates pretty quickly. With the Z3 and Z3 compact being released we will be a little further down the list if we do get it. I would guess we will see it eventually though.

There where some posts on the tech websites quoting rumors or unnamed sources a few days ago listing which Sony phones would get L. One listed Z Ultra and one listed T3 Ultra even though they probably came from same source. Until Sony confirms it or it shows up on my phone it is all speculation.

There was an official announcement about which Xperia devices would NOT get further upgrades a few weeks ago, and the Ultra wasn't on that list.
Generally, Android devices receive official updates for the first 18 months, so I'd imagine we'll be seeing L almost as quickly as the Z1 and Z2.

As I have said before, the zu and the z1 are on the same rollout is same build no's. So I think that if the z1 gets L we will. And if not it should be an easy port from either the z2 or the GPe

I would think that if the GPe got Android L, then the Xperia version would as well. And vice versa.
We should get L as Sony is better with updates now for their flagships. The Z saw quite a few major updates and so should the Z1 family. Ours falls in the z1 family so yeah we should be getting L. Even the Z series may get it at some point in time. Who knows. That would be really good from Sony
