[Sony] Xperia Open Devices Project

[jerpelea]

Sony Mobile is committed to supporting the open developer community, and one way to show this is by publishing parts of our code as well as selected tools developed by our internal developers.

For some of the Xperia™ devices, we provide Android™ Open Source Project (AOSP) device configurations on GitHub. This means that the software will be open for you as a developer to use and contribute to. This is a way for us to support the open Android community, and it is also a tool for us to facilitate and verify contributions to AOSP.

If you want to build AOSP for your unlocked Xperia device, you find all the resources you need in the sections below.

I assume AOSP_L_MR1_151203_castor.zip has the v14 and therefore a working camara, right?
There was another issue with AOSP on Z2 LTE Tablet, namely that in Youtube some colors got psychedelic.
Has anyone verified if this is problem is gone.
I run latest FXP CM 12.1 FXP-cm-12.1-20150810-UNOFFICIAL-castor.zip and I am happy with it.
Is there perhaps a CM in the make with v14?

I read in post
How to enable and enter recovery mode
1. Use the Flash tool for Xperia devices to install the latest generic software on your unlocked device.
2. Use the Flash tool for Xperia devices to install <device name> (Open devices) TA update.
so 2 questions:
- can one, instead of latest generic software, also have latest FXP AOSP software installed?
- where are the "<device name> (Open devices) TA update" files to be found?
(or does Flash tool for Xperia find those automagically?)
also: I have no Windows machine and use Androxyde on MacOSX or Linux. Will this work?
