Of course it's possible. It might even be easy because the manifacturer of the phones is the same and they have a really similar hardware. In order to port Z3C ROM to our Z1C we have to:
Battery and screen of Z3C are bigger. Also some chips are different:Anybody here have colected diferencie in hardware between Z1C and Z3C ? Only I have found is procesor is diferent (new model), not searched for other things. What is diferent there?
About egl I'm not sure: their gpu is an Adreno 330 but is clocked at a higher frequency. If I'm not wrong, hw directory also contains libraries that rely on the processor that is not the same.Agree with 1,2,3,4 but about 5. I am not sure. Why egl and hw? Is not video card and sensors the same?
Hm, you are right, we will need to replace gralloc and other things, probably cam libs will not work too, and allso probably sensors too since diferent digitizer... etc.
Maybe we can port some smalis at least. Anybody know what is new feature in z3c rom which not exist on z1c?
Pardon me for diverting the topic but could anyone port One Plus One's CM11S for our beloved Z1c? pretty please
Z3C realy have stereo speakers?ps4 remote play
ultra stamina mode
stereo speakers
tap to wake
noob question but couldn't we just use the porting method for z1 roms ?
I've heard the z1 compact don't have this module for tab 2 wake like the normal z1. That's why there's till now no tab 2 wake feature.. I miss this feature so much..
Apps like gravity are great but not the same..
I can do it kernel side (module), but I realy have no idea what is tap2wake... anybody explain me in details please! Is screen powered off when requesting these feature?
Considering that most of the new features in Z3c rely on different hardware - stupid question: what is the point of porting the ROM to Z1c?
