[Q] Will 2011 line get PA4.3? - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

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:

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.

[Q] Building CM7 from source?

I've noticed a few CM7 ROMs popping up for the Droid Eris, and wanted to take a shot at compiling a ROM. Unfortunately, the Droid Eris isn't a supported device in the Cyanogenmod downloads, as far as I can tell. Which source is being used for these ROMs? is it a generic source, or is it different for each device?

This link should help, it's the cyanogenmod link to the newest nightly build which is RC1, it's the same build that Workshed based him GB rom on.
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=RC&device=heroc
And here is the link to the newest "experimental" builds.
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=nightly&device=heroc
To find these easily just go to www.cyanogenmod.com and at the top right of the website, click on "Devices" and then find the HTC Hero (CDMA) and click on that. Hope this all helps !
OKAY! so we ARE using the Hero CDMA build! Thanks alot :3 topic can be locked now.

workshed is not using the Hero CDMA build for GSB. He is compiling directly from source. If you look at the source, there are vendor trees for official devices included in the source. workshed has a vendor tree for the Eris that he uses with the source to build his ROM.
Take a look at EasyDev and how it works. It will give you an idea of what's going on.
tazz is taking the Hero CDMA build and making it work for the Eris. The two devices are so close, that porting from the HeroC pretty much always works well.
could I compile this in 32-bit linux? or would it have to be 64?

Yes, if I recall correctly it was from 2.3 (Gingerbread) on that requires 64-bit Linux to compile.
I was just checking cause the CM Wiki had instructions for building on 32, but whenever I'd try to compile, it'd error out. So I wound up switching to 64-bit.

Latest Linux kernel 3.3 comes with added Android

Does that mean that with that kernel you can run Android programs in like Ubuntu? Because that would just be awesome.
Many apps are there for Android but not desktop Linux ( Android is still Linux ).

Ubuntu for Android has been out for a few weeks, but I think this new kernel will allow easier programming between Android and Linux....
easier crossprogramming and easier porting of new features / fixes between linux and android kernels

Yes but we can not get it. They didnt release any source code yet. In ubuntu for Android you can indeed open Android apps in ubuntu.
But what about on Ubuntu for pc's? There it is not possible.
3.3? Cool I thought the higest avalible is 2.6....

When you say been out for weeks, can you install it? It seems like its still being developed and will come out later this year.

They want to bundle it with phone manufacturers, so that they can have Ubuntu for Android on there devices.

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

Ubuntu Phone for Sola ?

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.

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!

The dream is alive :fingers-crossed:
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
