[MOD] XperiaMultiROM - MultiROM for Sony Xperia devices

[Olivier]

You probably all know what MultiROM is - shouldn't this be the case, visit the MultiROM wiki to get an idea. So in August, I started working on MultiROM for Xperia Z. Since our Sony devices lack recovery partitions, porting it gave me headaches. With the help of other devs, including Tasssadar, I was able to come up with some mods and hacks to optimize MultiROM on our devices. Over the time, the project grew and grew, and more and more people joined. Nowadays, XperiaMultiROM (formerly known as MultiROM-yuga) supports many of the Xperia Z models.
Any questions which are related to development, but not necessarily device-specific can be asked and discussed here.

As of now, the following devices are supported in XperiaMultiROM:

• Sony Xperia Z (yuga)
• Sony Xperia ZL (odin)
• Sony Xperia Tablet Z (pollux/pollux_windy)
• Sony Xperia Z Ultra (togari)
• Sony Xperia Z1 (honami)
• Sony Xperia Z1 Compact (amami)
• Sony Xperia Z2 (sirius)
• Sony Xperia Z3 (leo/z3)

The source code (MultiROM, MultiROM TWRP, device trees, kernels etc) can be found on our Github account.

If you're a developer and interested in joining XperiaMultiROM, feel free to PM me or one of the other team members. Should there be any questions, don't hesistate to ask.

Excellent thread! Thanks

Does that mean Tablet Z is getting v30b support

Would love support for the Xperia Ultra if any dev has the device.

Take note this isnt a place to request support

If you want your device supported by this project, PM the dev of your device (for MultiRom) and ask them if they want to be.

Feel free to mention or link them here

Z Ultra is not listed as supported and to date there wasn't a dev offering Z Ultra support for multirom.

So not clear on the process you state, as well as this thread being in "general' its not obvious its a no request policy thread.

ZR supported or not? why?

this is a joint project, if someone wants to join they can

there are many benefits of putting the heads of multiple devs together rather than one or two

Z Ultra isnt here because the Dev of the MultiRom port for Z Ultra isnt a part of this project.

ZR supported or not? why?

why because the dev of Multi-Rom for ZR may not be interested or ZR may be listed under Xperia Z

@alvinhochun (Xperia M)

I haven't touched MultiROM-related projects, or even Android-related projects for almost a year already

But still, it is good to see someone else expanding this MultiROM gem to more devices

We cant port it to SP

We dont have an Xperia SP and none of the people a part of our project has an Xperia SP

If you want this mod, find someone who has the aptitude and want to do such and link them here if they need/want help or info

I have an SP and I loved my Xperia U because it could run a lot of rom, infact all kernels had kexec patch
