[ROM][DEV][4.4] Unofficial CyanogenMod 11 port for Xperia SP

[uberlaggydarwin]

G'day friends! We would like to present you UNOFFICIAL CyanogenMod 11.0 (Android 4.4.0) KITKAT for Xperia SP.

"CyanogenMod (pronounced /saɪ.'æn.oʊ.dʒɛn.mɒd/) is an enhanced open source firmware distribution for smartphones and tablet computers based on the Android mobile operating system. It offers features and options not found in the official firmware distributed by vendors of these devices.

Features supported by CyanogenMod include native theming support, FLAC audio codec support, a large Access Point Name list, an OpenVPN client, an enhanced reboot menu, support for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and USB tethering, CPU overclocking and other performance enhancements, soft buttons and other "tablet tweaks", toggles in the notification pull-down (such as wi-fi, Bluetooth and GPS), app permissions management, as well as other interface enhancements. CyanogenMod does not contain spyware or bloatware. In many cases, CyanogenMod may increase performance and reliability compared with official firmware releases.

CyanogenMod is developed as free and open source software based on the official releases of Android by Google, with added original and third-party code. "

This is a UNOFFICIAL release. 100% UNOFFICIAL.

Before we begin:

package cyanogenmod;

import disclaimer;

public class CyanogenMod extends Disclaimer {

    /**

We can't change that. It's a XDA limit.

I'm actually re-uploading to http://d-h.st now as my site is very crashy. (may take 5-6 hours- australian internet is dreadful)


EVERYBODY.
PLEASE WAIT TILL I CONFIRM THAT THE BUILD IS OKAY.

[ngoralph]

how exactly do we patch the zip???

 

[eagleeyetom]

The zip isn't fully uploaded. Don't flash it if you're not sure if it's complete.

 

[SecFry]

As it is 38.6MB download at brintaylor (= incomplete upload)
Maybe it is better to remove that link from post because some very unique smart people can flash it.

It wouldn't work, it would only give an error. And if someone reports an error like this in this thread you just report it to the mod so that he can delete the post .

[uberlaggydarwin]

I'll reupload now. I hit 2 upload errors (timed out due to my terrible internet) and a last minute error.

I am just rebuilding now and will upload that .


The updater script should be patched so you won't need a new recovery.

EDIT 1 : Still building.

 

[h20ray]

trouble with 000webhost.com sir? or still uploading?
can i suggest you some file hosting? for ex imzupload.com

 

[uberlaggydarwin]

Locking.

Sorry about the delay. We need to check a few things. I'll get this thread unlocked on the weekend. I somehow broke the build when trying to make a proper fix as I know most of you wouldn't understand how to patch the updater-script...

Thread closed as requested.

EDIT: Thread re-opened. Bring some sweetness.
