Nice to read that there are Developers for this device.

just a few questions... i've read that sony opens kernels, blobs etc for the recent phones - i never found those for the z3tc ? did i miss that? or could the sources of the different devices could be use to achive the cm12 port?
and the other important question... are there any bugs in this build? what works? what does not work?
is there a twrp build for the z3tc?


regards

 

[jerpelea]

we have enabled daily builds
if your device is not yet in the list will appear soon (1 day,1 week, 1 month) no ETA please
but you have to remember that is an early alpha build

 

[finran]

Doesnt seem an answer for any questions I made.... didnt ask for an ETA either...
well... fine

Thank you for your efforts. Just bought the 32GB wifi tablet and not sure if I want start experiments with custom ROMs etc right out of the box, but would you kindly specify what does work and what doesn't in your build?

Cheers

I think that account is automated, for now at least.
This thread and the OP's posts are exactly the same as in the Xperia Z1 forum.
Hopefully once a first build is up and running, we will see some more attention from OP for questions.

we have 1 kernel for all the Zx family (not the original Z) and repo are up for every device in that families
we are working on a huge device list and thing have improved alot in last days, we have currently some hw failure which prevent us to work on a release
just take patience

 

[Schuan]

keep up the good work guys! thanks a lot for your effort！

did someone already try the rom ?

 

[D_JWhite]

I can't actually find the rom.

I can't actually find the rom.

I thought there was ROM in OP first, but then I realised that was just some kind of announcement.

And so we wait

Yeah, I had a look on their website but with the build server failure I'm not sure when we'll see a build, automated or not. I've asked Krabappel if he's got anywhere with his CM12 build but I think we'll face the same problems as the other members of the Z3 family; namely that until Sony release something official there will be blobs we're missing.

Merry Christmas!

Sorry, but what is the Z3 Tablet Compact codename: Pegasus or Scorpion? In two different places on FXP site those two names are mentioned.

Scorpion Windy for the Wifi version
Scorpion for the LTE version

This is according to the kernel sources by Sony which they have published on Github.

Is it not available yet? I can't find scorpion anywhere.

There is no FXP build but the unofficial CM12 build by Qzerno is working great:
