no the kernel is old i.e 3.x.x kernel

Its not just the kernel ,the whole OS is new ...Xperis Z's hardware is close to Nexus 4 barring the camera ...Same chipset/GPU ....Also porting is not magic which can be accomplished in one day ....

Can it be ported ? Yes ,maybe ..who knows

Will it be ported the next moment I make this thread magically ?

No ..it requires time ...1 week,1 month ,1 year,Never ... No one can tell ...

Be patient, bro :fingers-crossed:
Porting Rom is a hard work, especially for devices haven't same hardware

Check Again . Our Device Doesn't Have That Kernel

Hmmm....i don't quite understand why people is eager so much on KitKat running on our devices...are you all eager just because it can run on 512mb ram? if you do then you should read this....

Final note, a lot of folks are reading into the "512mb" item on the release notes. No, this does not mean a sudden resurrection of older hardware, there are dependencies beyond the RAM (and CM has enforced that minimum since ICS)

that is taken from Cyanogen itself...even if CM Team able to build it, doesn't mean it will work flawless on our devices and the camera will be as crappy as in JB Rom...

Yes You Are Right!
But We Are Not Eager Cause It Requires 512 Mb Ram But As It Is A New OS.
And Camera Libs . . . . . I Don't Think Sony Will Release Them

I really like my LWW and just because of camera drivers, I am forced to stay on ICS..
and I see many developers leaving these forums..!! NOT GOOD...!
