[STABLE][5.1.1/9]CUSTOM ROM PROJECT FOR XPERIA C3 DUAL

[DS1884]

So this phone is basically abandoned, but since I have this phone along with some time(in future), I am working on its resurrection.
So, my project was initially based off of Cyanogen Mod 12.1, then with some libs found here and there, I am compiling RR Lollipop, only to fix various issues that wwwhana's CM12.1 had. Well I fixed, at least, the major bugs (in CM12.1 itself of wwwhana source).
My main target is to reach Pie of RR7 and yes it might take a long time, but who knows, it might be Q when this project gets done

Working-
RIL(Wifi, SIM 1, Data etc.)
GPS
NFC
Camera
All sensors except(see not working)

Not Working-
Accelerometer
Brightness Control
Offline Charging

Rest, the ROM is quite stable. And for the love of god, please don't ask me when this would be done, because I myself do not know this. Also, RAM Expander is used to give that 870MB of RAM some courage. If any of you want the same results(and same ROM), tell me, I will update this thread with the instructions.

For now, to keep you guys excited, here are some snapshots of what has been done till now (Even a theme is applied so yay).

hey i have and xperia c3 dual too. can u give me this rom link??? thank u so much( my c3 dual is bootloop now so i need the link as soon as possible, pleas)

Rom link very needed

Hi, DS1884! You are so amazing and after reading this i'm still keeping in excited! Can i ask you the ROM link at that status as is is now? Pleeease :angel:

 

[DS1884]

@lightmate @zundo083
Currently I'd love to give you the ROM link, but the ROM contains many unused libs and priv-apps with some Sony Bloat(so size is over 5GB!) so I'd suggest you these steps to get a stable CM experience-

First, flash TWRP from here - https://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-c/development/twrp-2-8-7-xperia-c3-c3-dual-t3277280
Second, flash this ROM- https://forum.xda-developers.com/so...rom-deodexed-bloated-rooted-5-0-2-c3-t3190737
Third, after wiping data, cache and dalvik, flash this ROM(SKIP STEP 2 IF U ALREADY HAVE STOCK OR ANY OTHER ROM INSTALLED) - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68389661&postcount=75
Lastly, when the ROM is perfectly booted, flash these images using fastboot,(AND AFTER FLASHING DON'T WIPE DATA,CACHE OR DALVIK OR TRICK WON'T WORK!!!!!) - http://www.mediafire.com/file/0bb73z56j8gblax/D2533-cm12.1-15120-by_HaNAst_aka_wwwhana.7z/file

Now, you will boot CM perfectly with no issues EXCEPT Brightness HAL and Accelerometer Sensor. You can use Kernel Adiutor tweaks for enhanced speed!
This will help you get same results as the ROM I am currently developing + more stable and fast.

The reason more things work is because of the fact that the camera libs and perms from Sony ROM gets replaced when data isn't wiped, thus making the camera, RIL etc. work!

Also, for the status, I'd say things would come out soon(tm) and that soon would be one year or so due to lack of testers and helpers and I'm only a beginner and also just one. But to answer your question, I compiled RR 5.5.4 for our C3 and things came out the same way, only its RR. Next I would compile Pie directly I'd say and that would be Havoc OS this time so yay. But to don't think that I am working regularly on this project and school's a thing! Further it would take a lot of time!

 

[lightmate]

flash this ROM- https://forum.xda-developers.com/so...rom-deodexed-bloated-rooted-5-0-2-c3-t3190737

Is this really requires firmware 19.3.A.0.472 installed BEFORE attempting to install this software?

Third, after wiping data, cache and dalvik, flash this ROM - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68389661&postcount=75

As it turned out this is Deodex Patch for Xperia C3 (D2533). The author said that this will not work on other models. If i have the D2502 (2SIM model) this is not working solution for me?

 

[DS1884]

@lightmate
Don't worry, just flash, don't watch any limitations, it will work just fine! Lest it should be D2533 or D2502, it doesn't matter much!

 

[lightmate]

@DS1884
The second step link is not available at MEGA. Can you get any other link to [ROM][STOCK][D2533]Deodexed, De-Bloated, Rooted 5.0.2 for C3 D2533?

I'd say that just flash step 4 link directly then!

 

[TyXeD0]

Hello! I am the owner of the D2533. Very interested in your project. I'm waiting for news)

 

[Blackgate78]

I will keep an eye on this thread :cyclops:

 

[DS1884]

Update-
An RR Marshmallow 6.0.1 ROM is compiled and booted off of the same libs and kernel as of CM LP. It has the same bugs, except now the Brightness settings work.
Now, there is an additional bug that the ROM when booted up, may force reboot at random times, so I'd not share the link unless and until things get stable. My next target is 7.0 and when that gets done, I will release the lollipop, mm and nougat rom in seperate threads and will keep this thread for overall development, regardless of the stability because I understand you guys' curiosity. Also I am very aware about the speed of this project being very slow. The reason being I am working on it all alone so I am in need of testers(1-2). PM me if you want to be one. Just be aware that the project will only complete about around April, 2020 as I DO NOT spend my life in making this project happen.

 

[lightmate]

The good news came again! ) Unfortunately i can't be tester because this phone is my the only phone )) Many apps permenent needed for work and communications and stability is the main thing i need. Honey is sweet, but the bee stings )

 

[dark develeper]

[shoeseat]

Hi @DS1884,
Can you upload the latest files for this build? I installed CM 12.1 successfully but camera is not working. Also the link to old deodex ROM 'https://forum.xda-developers.com/so...rom-deodexed-bloated-rooted-5-0-2-c3-t3190737' is not working anymore. You can provide us a link for this if you have.
Please upload new build so that we can flash it, Just camera needs to work for me as other bugs can be ignored.

 

[dclou]

Hi All....
I am not very sure the android version of this rom....
If I follow the process of the installation....Will I get Android 5 or Android 9?
thank you for the kindly reply^^

 

[Dheerajmalviya]

[Rrishu]
