Thanks for all your hard work! How stable is EvoX compared to the current RR build? I'm looking to move up to Android 11 finally and want to see if that is my next ROM

I will have a Lots of Features. For example color theming, satusbar theming and notification bar theming.
I think then is RROS better for me?

Whilst trying to flash the product.img (Lineage 18.1), I get the following error:

writing 'product_a' 2/2... FAILED (remote: Operation not permitted)

Whilst trying to flash product.img (PEP), I also get the following error:

writing 'product_a' 6/6... FAILED (remote: Operation not permitted)

I have OEM unlocked my device, and I am flashing files via 'fastbood'. Any suggestions?

Edit: I fixed the issue myself, the problem was down to out of date fastboot drivers on Linux. Downloading the latest 'platform-tools' from Google solved the issue.

Question about LOS 18 for this phone....Is VoLTE/Sony Cinema working perfectly on all carriers, or do they use some strange Sony Modem thingy that needs customizations?

Sony Xperia 5 II
Do we have anyone maintaining any Xperia 5 II ROMs any more?
With @ken442266 selling his phone, it doesn't seem like anyone else is picking up the mantle. The only "active" ROM thread I see here is Havoc-OS and that seems to only be Android10.

    Which Rom is better LineageOS 17.1 or RROS?

    RROS is more feature rich, but has a higher overhead so it depends on what you value. For my case, RR lasts me plenty long and I love having features so its my go to.

    Thanks for the great work!
    I still have a question though, as the two repos(device tree and vendor) are removed, is there any way to create the device tree myself?(I was thinking of utilizing the files Sony provided on openxperiadev but I don't know where to start since I'm pretty much a complete noob to this) Or where should I start if I were to port a Lineage based rom?
    Thanks in advance

    Alright, so what I did for the device and vendor repos, is create a sony.xml file under ./local_manifests and set the contents to
    XML: 
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
    <remote name="github-sony" fetch="https://github.com/" />

    <project path="device/sony/edo-comon" name="Mirenk/android_device_sony_edo-common" groups="device" remote="github-sony" revision="lineage-18.1" />
    <project path="device/sony/pdx206" name="Mirenk/android_device_sony_pdx206" groups="device" remote="github-sony" revision="lineage-18.1" />
    <project path="vendor/sony/pdx206" name="hellobbn/android_vendor_sony_pdx203" groups="vendor" remote="github-sony" revision="lineage-18.1" />
</manifest>

    You'll notice that the vendor is coming from a PDX203 repo (which is the Xperia 1 II), so it'll need a good number of modifications to work for our phone (PDX206). I've done a bunch of massaging to it, but have not had much luck grabbing the required files from the phone with extract-files.sh yet...

    My next tact is to find all the files that I think it needs (scraping proprietary-files.txt and looking for refs in pdx206-vendor.mk, which is just a copy of pdx203-vendor.mk that i did a sed s/203/206/g on) for a proper build from an adb shell and grab them and place them in the proper dirs by hand. I'll create a fork on my GH and push my mods later on today in case it's of any help to you.

    I thought about porting the pdx203 device tree since those two devices share a large portion pf hardware but I was doubtful it would be as simple as doing a literal find&substitute from 203 to 206 lol, at least more work has to be done to adapt for the differences between the two, for instance the 120hz display. I really appreciate your answer as it proves the concept is somewhat workable.
    Meanwhile I accidentally found the previous maintainer (EggOxygen) when searching on another forum (Coolapk) and had a nice conversation with him and learned the whole edo platform thing. That surely cleared things up.
    Anyways I saw the new repo on your GH page. It seemed to be completed and ready for use. Can I compile with this or does I require any furthur modifications? Or is there anything I can do to help improve it? I would be more than happy to contribute, as soom as I get the grasp of all this :D

    Oh, these are not my repos. I just got a link from someone else on these boards, which I used to fill in some of the dirs.
    I'll fork and update them as soon as I have something to contribute.
