[DISCONTINUED][R][20210314][ROM][UNOFFICIAL] LineageOS 18.1 for Xperia 5 II

Search This thread
I could use some help setting up the PDX206 device tree for LOS if you've got some time.
I was able to build AOSP given the `sonyxperiadev` sources, but adapting it to LOS has been a challenge:
- If I use the entire `local_manifests` repo, I get path conflicts during the build. I've been able to eliminate duplicate repos cloning to the same path (using remove-project directives, but am still having trouble with the same modules being defined in multiple Android.bp files.)
- If I only source the device repos in a roomservice.xml manifest file, I get SOONG errors.

I've yet to get a successful LOS build for this device :(
did you have any luck with los device trees for pdx 206? i just got the phone and cant find any trees to work with!

    I can actually keep updating it, will do when I have time

    Yep. Dev seems to be more active over in the XPERIA 1 II sections. I'm going to see if I can get any traction porting some of their work over to our device. I'm no developer, so it's unlikely I'll get anywhere (soon, anyway).

    The OP says you should use the stock android 10 firmware as a basis, so I'd imagine thats your issue.

    Not really - the first post states that "You don`t need to upgrade to R vendor (58.1.X)", that doesn't imply that with R vendor the phone won't boot. If that's the case, then the initial quote is kinda misleading.
    In any case, I'll just try Q vendor as well and see how it goes.
