Hi folks. Are you tired of your sluggy GPU perfomance? Are you bored with the fact that your fancy Xperia doesnt have the latest and greatest OpenGL ES 3.2 and Vulkan API? Fear not, because I got the solution....

All drivers are up-to-date, identical to their latest CAF branch.
Requires device runnning latest Sony Nougat ROM/CAF-based ROM.
Code:
-Adreno 5xx drivers updated with OpenGL ES 3.2.
-Adreno 530 GPMU (Graphics Power Management Unit) FW updated, should help lower the power usage.
-Latest Vulkan API drivers backported. API Level 1.0.31.
-OpenCL drivers updated.
-Best supports for Adreno 530, surpassed all other S820/821 devices in Vulkan test.
-Added supports for VR High Perfomance (DayDream VR) :good::good::good:

Update: After a while there were numerous confirmations that this update working on other OEM devices using Adreno 5xx too. But flash with your own risks

This mod works well however if any bugs are encountered please report them in the thread

1. Provide a logcat
2. (If crashes occur) provide the files in /sys/fs/pstore
3. Use a polite tone and please don't demand people to help you otherwise we won't

Does this only work on sony devices or anything with the snapdragon models mentioned

Only on the mentioned Sony devices.
Actually this should be working on other devices as well, but you need to check for file location because some use different FS layout than Sony.

Oh nice, I should have noticed that the Adreno 4xx share the same drivers? If so then maybe all Adreno 4xx and 5xx can applies this update (But not 540 coz its using different files)

Maybe
Previously i tried to use kenzo blobs (5xx)
But it didn't works..

But with your MOD
Now i am able to use opengl es 3.2 and vulkan :))

I doubled check your zip
You just include the permission and blobs for gpu

So yor zip kinda same as themuppets/qcom_binaries repo

Oh ya
I didn't change vulkan.msm8994 .-.

Edit:
I change it to my board number
It's still works

Hmmm...
It's weird; after flashed this mod it works, but DevCheck still shows OpenGL ES 3.1 while AnTuTu utilized OpenGL ES 3.2.

With Redmi 3 Pro (ido).

Is this 3.1?
Code:
ro.opengles.version=196609
It's the only line I found regarding OpenGL on build.prop...

Sent from my Redmi 3 using XDA Labs

Yes, edit it to 196610 and reboot...
Code:
# 196608 is decimal for 0x30000 to report version 3.0
# 196609 is decimal for 0x30001 to report version 3.1
# 196610 is decimal for 0x30002 to report version 3.2

    Hi, I have updated a new version for Xperia users (experimental), which add only Vulkan APIs but not the faulty OpenGL ES driver by me. Adding supports to the Loire family (Xperia X/X Compact). So cheers....
    Requires clean system, not flashing over old versions...
    I will update shortly later with new improved drivers for Adreno 3xx/4xx/5xx (also future 540 for the S835 too). Initial supports for GPU HDR flags (which will support Android 7.1.2)
    7
    Will you be porting the latest nougat drivers for 4xx series taken from Nexus 6P or something to Xperia SD810 devices?

    yes, I will upload new drivers for 810/820/821 at the end of this month

    Vulkan for Adreno 430 that was taken out from OP's zip, it wouldn't break the camera on Xperia devices. You can use it while waiting for the official Vulkan package only from OP.
