Is there a compiled AOSP rom available for Xperia 1 J9110? - Sony Xperia 1 Questions & Answers

Just checking in if anyone has managed to create an AOSP ROM?
Sony developer's site states it needs a Linux system for the compilation but I have a windows system and compiling through WSL 2 is difficult.

Hi,
I just managed to compile one and need someone with an unlocked bootloader to test it.
It is made for Xperia 1 J9110 Dual sim variant.
But there is no "Network"
Actually, no IMEI, Baseband, and sometimes screen flickered.
This is not for daily use.

android kernel compile.

Hi,
I am the owner of xperia z1 that I bought on 31/12/2014. The device still under warranty but I don't worry to much about it. The reason Im here is to understand the process how to make custom android operating system by go through kernel compilation process. I own apple powerbook g4 run with Debian family operating system. Can anyone of you explain further about kernel compilation process for android? Do I need to download android OS do the kernel compile and transfer into xperia smartphone?
Many thanks.

Development of Ubuntu Touch for Xperia Z2

Hello.
I am very keen in getting the Ubuntu Touch ported to my Xperia Z2 phone. Obviously, I'll need all the help and guidance possible.
What I currently have? developer.ubuntu.com/en/start/ubuntu-for-devices/porting-new-device/
I'm using the official porting guide as checklist. Below are what I have accomplished so far with the guide
Setup my Development Environment
Have built for Nexus with success to see if my environment is up and running (the building threw no errors, so I assume it "works", since I have no means of testing because I don't have a nexus handset)
I have added repos regarding under how to enable a new device.
I have done the first part of the Device specific changes using the check-config script, the _defconfig file in the kernel (this is Sony Xperia Z2 kernel: CyanogenMod/android_kernel_sony_msm8974 , right?)
When I did the build ( just to test so far what I've done ) I got the error that, its using the pre-compiled kernel, or something like that.
Now my questions:
How do I tell it which kernel to use, and where?
Where is the pre-compiled kernel and which is the precompiled: the one from the vendor/ (which I got from extracted binary from sony official) OR the /kernel/sony/msm8974 ?
I've gone looking around to see if I could perhaps follow the pattern used in the porting to the Xperia Z, since they're in the same series. Yet, I hardly could follow what exactly the 'porter' did. I was interested in finding answers to the 'What?', and 'Where?' of the porting done, but couldn't get solid answers.
I ask this here with the hope that, a developer who's been through the porting process will be able to offer assistance. I've been in touch with Mamenyaka, and along the lines, he'll be assisting too. But since he isn't available all the time, I ask this here.
Concerning the above list of questions, please, any assistance will be appreciated.
Its understandable, yet unfortunate, that the official ubuntu porting guide has been made to be so broad and so generic its hard to streamline what it says with a specific device. With this thread, I hope to get very specific instructions precisely tailored to the Xperia Z2 and to accommodate being extensive, instructions for the Z line series.
thanks

Hello,
if you are still working on this project:
Your Problem was not that you used the prebuilt kernel, your problem was that the script doesnt use mkabootimg correctly. For sony device you have to use another command.
Friend i would love to see ubuntu on my z2

[ROM][26May][GNU/Linux] Sailfish OS 2.0.1.11 (community port)

Announcing Sailfish for the Sony Xperia Z3 Compact!
This is not Android!
This should be thought of as a development experiment. It may be useful if you are a developer and want to write/port apps the the Sailfish operating system. It is not an end-user product, however, if you wish to experiment and try something different then feel free!
Please do not contact Jolla Care or Jolla Developer Care, as this is not the Jolla phone.
Special thanks to:
rss351 and locusf for the collaborative effort in porting SailfishOS to the Z3 compact
Everyone from the SailfishOS team/community, sledges and mal- in particular.
All Cyanogenmod devs, since SailfishOS uses drivers from Cyanogenmod to talk with the phone's hardware
Known issues:
Bluetooth isn't turned on, cause i've put no effort in for that so far
Camera doesn't work, cause it's not hooked up to interface.
No recovery inside hybris bootimage (you need to flash manually to return to cm/use recovery)
Sensors dont work (auto-adjust brightness, etcetera)
The Jolla account/store functionality is not enabled. This is being worked on by Jolla. In the meantime: use openrepo's warehouse (see bottom of this post)
What works:
Booting, basic usage of the OS itself (browsing, etc)
Texting, calling, data over mobile network (2g and 3g tested, 4g should work but is untested)
Wifi (both 2,4 and 5 GHz)
Power management seems to work fine (not tested much though)
Looking around and getting a feel for SailfishOS
Using your phone to develop and debug SailfishOS apps.
Installation guide/checklist:
Insert default warranty void message here. Your warranty is now void
Make a backup (just to be sure)
Depending on what you need from your phone, this may not be a rom suitable for daily driving with. But installation is non-destructive to your existing rom, so if you're curious, give SailfishOS a try
I have not tested this on locked bootloaders, but since I needed to modify the kernel, I guess that you need an unlocked bootloader.
Note this is not an official Sailfish OS build, and the Xperia Z3c is not a Jolla phone, so please don't report bugs to Jolla. If you want to report a bug, this thread is perfectly fine for that.
BEWARE: this image is NOT optimized for security. The phone boots in development mode by default. There is a root shell on telnet port 2323. This is not secure and will give anyone who wants it remote access to your phone. When the port matures this will be fixed.
The Sailfish OS image does not provide recovery, and since the Xperia Z3c does not have a recovery partition, you need a bootimage with recovery on it to flash cm/stock/sailfishos upgrade. I highly recommend using Nut's Xperia files for this. Use the boot.img from your Cyanogenmod installation.
The Sailfish OS image is based on a recent version of Cyanogenmod 12.1, so update your Cyanogenmod installation while you are at it. Use cm-12.1-20160523-NIGHTLY-z3c.zip if you encounter issues with other versions. Using another rom is not guaranteed to work, even if this rom is based on Cyanogenmod.
You can find the required zip in this Mega folder: https://mega.nz/#F!ucoRnDjD!WAHNWgxLQX5SK1Vdu8MRWw
Use your favorite recovery (but not CM's recovery since that checks for signatures, which this image does not have) to flash the zip.
If you want to return to Cyanogenmod, extract boot.img from your cm-12 zip and flash that with fastboot. Alternatively you can restore a previous backup. There is no need to re-flash Cyanogenmod because it was not removed by installing SailfishOS. You can remove the /data/.stowaways/sailfishos/ folder afterwards to reclaim disk space.
FAQ
You can find a FAQ which mentions most common user questions for SailfishOS here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/jolla-sailfish/general/qa-sailfish-n4-thread-devices-t2727330 . It's mainly aimed to the Nexus 4 and 5, but it's fairly applicable for all other ports as well.

Sources
You can find all used source code (may not be up-to-date to the latest image, but all key components are there) here: https://github.com/xperiasailors/
Installing OpenRepos warehouse
OpenRepos warehouse is like what F-Droid is versus Google's Play store. An unofficial, community-driven repository of open source apps.
Go to settings->developer options and set a password. Then open a terminal or connect over ssh to your phone (ssh [email protected]_of_phone).
Download the latest version of the warehouse app from here: https://openrepos.net/content/basil/warehouse-sailfishos
When you are asked to terminate packagekit anywhere in the steps below, answer yes.
Code:
$ devel-su
# zypper rr adaptation0
# zypper in <location_of_rpm_you_downloaded>
After this Warehouse app will be in your app launcher.
Impressive work! :good:

Just having a go now.
Edit: just stayed on sony screen. Would it be because I came from SLiMM 1.8 ROM and not from a CM based ROM?

Probably, yes.
SailfishOS uses libhybris for hardware communication, which in turn uses the existing Cyanogenmod installation for drivers and proprietary blobs. But hybris is compiled against a certain Cyanogenmod version, so using other roms as a base might fail.
I've updated the TS and put the exact CM version I used in there, that should work fine.
There are any news? The project is in development?

No news, I don't spend much time on this port, every now and then I fiddle around with it an evening.
I'm currently trying to get AOSP based Sailfish port because Cyanogenmod for Z3c seems unmaintained, but progress is very slow.
Thank you for the info. Do you know when a version (sailfish port) comes out?
Hello! Thanks for your work. May i know the progress ?
it would be great to see a real "european" OS coming out of the dust...
i hate the thought that any company from the other side of the atlantic are wheels in the monster of patriot act...
@maikoool Any news about new build or something?
Yes, look here:
https://nokius.net/SFOS/scorpion/PreAlpha/
But still no Cam, no BT, No Sensors and No video playback
AFAIK is the 'scorpion' the Z3 Tablet compact, so not the Z3 compact. The base images will probably be the same.
I've recently rolled a build using AOSP 5.1 from the Sony Xperia developer pages, but my Z3c has developed an issue where the top and bottom of the screen don't function, so I cannot test properly.
Aries is device name, right? What's scorpion ?

Making an own android image?

Hello everybody. I love this community and I have been lurking for a long time.
I have noticed on a foreign language forum that some people were offering a custom rom for my android 9 TV box.
The chinese box is based on a s905x3 CPU and has a mediatek wifi chip for which it is hard (if not impossible to find the wifi drivers).
The site claims that the image was made by modifying the stock rom that came with the box. Is this possible or do all custom roms need to be build from the source?
The custom rom I want to make is going to replace the launcher with kodi.
I am prepared to build the whole rom from source but I do have a couple of questions.
Since the mediatek wifi drivers cannot be found how would I go about including the binary for the wifi?
I have noticed that the box that I have uses a .ko (kernel object) module to drive the wifi chip.
Can I include these kernel objects in build? It is a shame that the kernel is built as a 32bit system. Would that mean that I can only compile a 32bit kernel if I were to reuse those kernel modules and binaries?
Another idea is to perhaps use the kernel from coreelec in my build since it seems to include a lot of drivers.
Is it possible to use a kernel from something like coreelec but use the source from AOSP for the rest of my build?
Is there anything else that I should be aware of?
Thank you all!!!!
Can anyone give me any hints to any of the questions?
Essentially I want to swap out the stock launcher for Kodi. What is the easiest way to do so?

Sailfish OS for Sony Xperia 1 and 5 (4.4.0.72)

Sailfish OS 4.4.0.72 for Sony Xperia 1 and 5​
These release notes cover Sailfish OS 4.4.0.72 for the following devices:
Sony Xperia 1 (J8110, J9110)
Sony Xperia 5 (J8210, J9210)
Intro​
This port has been updated last to the latest release of Sailfish OS 4.4.0.72 in addition to that several adaptation bugs discovered in the testing of the first release have been fixed.
Also several documentation updates or buildinfrastructure changes have been made.
Updates to these project components are now tracking in the main bug tracking repository SailfishOS-SonyXperia/bugs/releases.
The highlights in this release are:
[prjconf] Fix pattern dependencies. Fixes SailfishOS-SonyXperia/bugs#55, fixes SailfishOS-SonyXperia/bugs#59
[patterns] Require ngfd >= 1.4 instead of ngfd-plugin-native-vibrator. Fixes SailfishOS-SonyXperia/bugs#69
[configs] Keep dual sim configs on J9210/Xperia 5, remove on J8110. Fixes SailfishOS-SonyXperia/bugs#51
[kickstart] Fix @DEVICES@ name for Xperia 5/J9210 in flash-on-windows. Resolves SailfishOS-SonyXperia/bugs#50
Thanks to all who have provided testing, reported bugs or have contributed otherwise.
Functionality​The devices have the same functionality level as the Xperia 10 II port made by Jolla,
except in areas such as VoLTE where public packages are missing or in relation to Sailfish X features which are (currently) unavailable.
Known issues​
SailfishOS-SonyXperia/bugs#33
Because of a missing package inside the adaptation-common repository Windows binaries for flashing are missing inside the zip archive. To workaround that issue have added another zip file that includes these files as "droid-flashingtools.zip" to this release.
SailfishOS-SonyXperia/bugs#37
The launcher icons on the Xperia 1 are to small because there's no bigger graphics-theme size than 2.0.

About​
The goal of this project is to port additional Sony devices on top of Jolla's existing adaptations while staying as close as possible to the existing ports and contributing back to the upstream where possible.
Most of the changes from Jolla ports are adopted in both directions since the issues that one port has usually apply to the sister device of the same generation (e.g. Xperia 10 II -> Xperia 1/5).
This is the reason why changes from Jolla’s port end up in the changelog for these port,
in many cases because they also affect the specific port but not always.
Where possible changes that were done for this port go back to the _Mer-Hybris_ repositories such as the kernel or droid repositories.
The project is open for anyone that wishes to port additional Sony devices to Sailfish OS. Feel free to suggest new features, provide bug reports or to contribute.
Sources​Any sources specific to this port can be found inside the project linked above. The device repositories are named after the devices board name for example in this case kumano.
All our sources are included inside the project linked above.
All other sources are taken unpatched from upstream which is either Sony-AOSP or SailfishOS/mer-hybris.
If changes are needed inside upstream repositories these are submitted to the upstream repositories.
This GPL includes components such as the kernel or libhybris.
On pressure of XDA I add the direct link to the kernel repository, however the exact ref used during build
can be found inside the droid-hal repository, which in the case of the Xperia 1 for example, droid-hal-kumano.

Great job, thanks for making the port! Does it have Android app support? If it does I'll definitely give it a try, I saw on the SailfishOS official website that only the paid version can run Android apps...
Edit: I see why now, because of the very very long term support that you get, it's like 7 years of updates for a bit of money, that's pretty good.
just try to use on my device.
its first time for me using Sailfish OS.
but.
when i turn off the phone, and try to turn it on, it asks for the security code, after i enter the security code, it just loading in quite a long time,
then, simcard and wifi didnt works.
I can confirm, that neither data connection nor WiFi works.
Without any data such as logs I can't help you. Please create a bug in the bugtracker.
Please also make sure that you flash the version that matches your device.
Please follow this article to fetch logs:
https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360013910599-Collecting-basic-logs-from-a-Sailfish-device
You can also try to flash the new images, I will add tomorrow.
I updated the release archives today:
Package ngfd as `CUSTOM_’ FFMemless vibration effects require newer version than packaged in SailfishOS 4.4.0.
Fix issue in ssu-vendor-data package that made the address of the adaptation repository invalid. [BUG] address of adaptation repo is invalid #49
I've installed Sailfish and its working fine. But i dont find access to install android apps. Is there a way to install APKs?

First of all, many thanks for your reply - very appreciated!
Yes, I've downloaded and flashed the appropriate version (J9210, Xperia 5, DualSim). As I've bought this device as a new one about 2 years ago, I've used it that time, and it worked. The bootloader was already opened; it was rooted, because of some rooting apps.
Therefore, it was not necessary to check, if data connection, wifi, gps, camera and so on works, because it worked.
I flashed sailfish os (with the latest software binaries, Android 10, Kernel 4.14 - as in the op described [the extracted .img I've placed in the same folder as your firmware, of course]) via Linux Mint.
The device boots up flawlessly, the screen is responding without any problem, and also the intro worked.
But I can't activate wifi. I can push the button, and it responses, but it don't activates wifi. Also, my sim card won't be recognized, therefore there's no chance to enter the sim pin.
So there's a few questions:
You write "please follow this article to fetch logs", but without a link... I guess, it's not like fetching logs in android? So would you please tell me, how I can do that, to provide you the log?
Or is it necessary to buy a Yolla licence? No problem, I would pay for it, but the Xperia 5 isn't listed yet on your homepage...
Thanks in advance for your kind reply!
P.S.: Yes, I've tried it 4 times (went back to the latest Sony fw), and the last time I've flashed the latest Sony fw even on slot a and b before flashing Sailfish OS again (the latest [1.06] for the Xperia 5 Dual Sim variant), but unfortunately every time with the aforementioned result...

Not you don't need to buy a license, the device isn't support by Sailfish X (it is not available so far for community ports).

Thank's in advance!
In addition, the answers (sorry, almost forgot) to your questions:
Yes, I've downloaded the Sailfish_OS-Sailfish-SonyXperia-4.4.0.68-j9210-1.0.0.6.zip and the software binaries provided in your op.
I've only extracted the zip, but not the .img, ofc. Then I put the Software Binaries.img into the same folder as the firmware and run ./flash.sh

As there's one month left in the meanwhile, I only wanted to ask, if there's some progress regarding the J9210!? Is this the wanted logs, do you need some other, or has this project stopped?

I didn't mention it here but please open a bug report, a forum or specificly this forum thread isn't the best place to talk about issues.
My J9210 runs fine.

The Xperia 5 firmware I've flashed is the J9210_Customized EU_55.2.A.4.332-R13C one. I'll flash it again and give SF OS another try. Perhaps it failed because my Xperia 5 was rooted and debloated; I also had AFWall+, the Xposed framework and XPrivacyLUA installed. I don't know...
Right after flashing the aforementioned fw I will test GPS, mobile data, wifi and so on, and will keep everything turned on before flashing SF OS - maybe it will work?

I want to try it again, but it's a shame if it's without a simcard or wifi.
Well, now I've flashed the J9210_Customized EU_55.2.A.4.332-R13C fw, played around with data connection, wifi, bluetooth, camera, and everything worked.
Then I tried to install SF OS via Windows 10 64 bit, but there must be a mistake inside the script. I definitely own a Xperia 5 dual-sim (J9210)!!!!!!! But: Please have a look into the attached pic...
Then I tried to flash SF OS running Linux Mint (latest stable release); the flash ran through without any error, but again: No WiFi, no data connection.
I'm about to give up!!!
One note:
I've flashed so many devices, mostly LineageOS, but also Ubuntu Touch, and never had any problem like that - unfortunately, it's annoying...

Then I tried to install SF OS via Windows 10 64 bit, but there must be a mistake inside the script. I definitely own a Xperia 5 dual-sim (J9210)!!!!!!! But: Please have a look into the attached pic...
Then I tried to flash SF OS running Linux Mint (latest stable release); the flash ran through without any error, but again: No WiFi, no data connection.
I'm about to give up!!!
One note:
I've flashed so many devices, mostly LineageOS, but also Ubuntu Touch, and never had any problem like that - unfortunately, it's annoying...

Isually use Linux to flash but also should have checked the Windows flash script.
Please edit the batch script you called and replace j9210 with J9210.
I just fixed the issue but for now just change the flash script for Windows:
[BUG] Device is invalid in windows flashing script for Xperia 5/j9210 · Issue #50 · SailfishOS-SonyXperia/bugs
The @[email protected] in the kickstart script is written as j9210 but it should be J9210.

Thank you very much for the response - and your efforts, ofc!
Finally: It works
I had not to flash the latest firmware (doesn't work), but a rollback to the J9210_Customized EU_1320-0801_55.1.A.9.52_R10B fw before flashing Sailfish OS did the trick!
