What is this? New firmware again?

Sony Xperia Z1 14.1.N.0.52
http://developer.sonymobile.com/dow...es/open-source-archive-for-build-14-1-n-0-52/
Can someone flash it?
Is there a chance this is KitKat? This was released yesterday

360mb only?

I will look into the zip when I get wifi at home which should be in next few hours but probably just tweaks for the people using asop or for cooking roms

KitKat will start with 14.3.blahblah in the firmware number. This is for the L39U which is a Chinese variant.

Is 14.2.x.x for KitKat (src: DoomLord)

Yeah you both sound credible.

From the looks of it is is 4.1.2 kernel source update but downloading it to take a peek as it's the latest source code so might be able to dig around to find some useful features we may get or not idk what it will be

Considering 4.2 was 14.1.x.x.xxx, 4.3 is 14.2.x.x.xxx, it's only logical to assume 4.4 will be 14.3.x.x.xxx.

Well the people in Sony love their little updates.. That's for certain
And of course it isn't KitKat.. The build number says it all.. It's a minor update with some fixes maybe! Besides it's only 350 mb.. It can't be KitKat

NEW: 14.3.A.0.757 is rolling out

New update (14.3.A.0.757) now rolling to Xperia Z1, Z Ultra and Z1 Compact; fixes KitKat sound bug issue
Sony is now rolling out the Android 4.4.2 KitKat bug-fix, just as it had promised last week. Firmware build 14.3.A.0.757 replaces the previous KitKat build (14.3.A.0.681) and fixes the sound bug issue which frustrated many. The issue related to sounds from the handset being played through the internal, rather than the external speaker.
The update is rolling out across all variants of the Xperia Z1, Xperia Z Ultra and Xperia Z1 Compact. We have included a list of regions where it has currently hit right now, however expect this to broaden over the coming days. If you’ve downloaded it, let us know if it fixes all of the issues you’ve had with the new KitKat build.

This is a new build for the Zultra and Z1 family, placed today:
Will it resolve the Kitkat bugs?

It's very easy to install. Download and unpack the archive. Install your favorite compiler (gcc, clang or something else). Compile binaries from source. Build one ftf from binaries and install it on your phone. Vualya, you have new firmware installed.
Seriously, its only source and nothing else, its not firmware.

yes,hradware&HAL drivers along customization for each phones.can be ported from previous releases,there is no huge structural differences between 4.3 and 4.4

Shared this link in the Doomkernel thread, so Doom himself can analyze the .tar package and see if it is anything improved / new in those sources or just like the previous KitKat ones..

It's already available in some region !

[Discussion][Poll] Anyone that is still using a "legacy" Xperia 2011 Device?

[Discussion][Poll] Anyone that is still using a "legacy" Xperia 2011 Device?
As the title states..
Anyone that is still using anyone of the legacy and lovely Xperia 2011 (Sony Ericsson Holy grail and Grand Finalé devices) around here?
What ROM?
What kernel?
Etc?
Regards
Destroyedbeauty @ XDA-Developers

@all
BUMP!
Share your nowaday experience of those holy grails, and discuss both bad and good memories those have given you. Don't be so strict with thinking on how you writes stuff in here, just stay on topic and discuss everything that the "legacy" Xperia 2011 devices has given you and various memories / user experiences thru your usage of those devices, and all is fine.
@all

Actually I'm using it as backup, unrooted, with last OS update.

Still using Xperia Ultimate HD for Xperia arc (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1920207)

But I am searching for a better solution with less GCM and more Battery. (Do not playing games on this Device)

Have you tried any of the LegacyCM 4.4.4 builds?

My girlfriend is enjoying my old Xperia Neo (hallon) with CarbonRom 4.4.4 and a friend gave me an Arc S that i've updated to 4.4.4 also. Both run amazingly well with kitkat considering their old hardware. Can't wait for some Lollipop rom to test it in both phones.

CM12 will come soon, be sure on that hopefully, @jerpelea and FXP have some killer stuff arriving asap, once it's green regarding official CM12 sources..

When I had my Arc S unlocked from O2, the bootloader unlock allowed changed from No to Yes.
So unlocked BL and running CM11.
Running nice and fast too.

I use an arc s as a secondary device.
Stock ICS rom rooted.
Very nice phone

CM-11-20141224-UNOFFICIAL-LegacyXperia-anzu
Android 4.4.4 on custom kernel.

Running LegacyXperia CM13 on my Xperia Arc. Got this phone as a hand-me-down as a replacement for a Samsung Galaxy Trend with a failing battery. I have to say I'm so pleased to be back with a Sony Ericsson device, I had an X8 (GingerDX) before the Samsung. These things are so easy to root, install custom roms and I love physical buttons. Marshmallow runs well enough for daily usage with 16GB Samsung EVO SD card. Much snappier than the Samsung with stock rom.
Edit: sorry for bringing back an old thread, heh

i still use it, official stock rom 4.0.4 ICS, love it... not going to change this phone ever.... maybe i will add xperia m4 aqua and use them both... but Arc s will be primary... also i'm hw buttons fanboy ! :laugh::laugh:

still using the arc with CM 10.1
I tried legacy xperia lolipop version and I couldn't handle all the lag so I went back to cm 10.1
I'm thinking I might just try the marshmallow one

Bad bad bad nexs for xperia z and z1

I'm sure many here will not see this as a "bad bad bad news". Having an official lollipop firmware in a 2.5 old device is more than anyone could ask for. Having a solid 5.1.1 build is better than having the latest build.
More than happy with the support from SONY,and more than enough to stay on the ship

This is a bad news bcz there are many people have a( locked bootloared allowed no) so there is no custum rom based at cyanogenmod or any other custom rom ...there are just custom rom based at stock rom..so in the futur for the bootloared allowed no there are no update no officiel or any custom

Bad news for us....but it waz expected.
Cherish to sony for long support to our old device.Better than other OEMs.
Yea 5.1.1 was the best build i agree.
But i hope(i know they will) our rom devs will port android 6.0 from other xperia devices getting dat version.Kudos to sony and our rom devs.:good::good:

I agree with you i hope our best dev make a stock rom for z and z1 based at android 6.0 for LB and UB

Creating Android M for LBL is not possible bcoz it'll need custom kernel. I think our devs'll give some test builds on next 1-2 weeks, AOSP code'll be published in 2-3 days

I'm not surprised. It's fantastic that we even got 5.1, the Z is so old now. All good things come to an end
But what I am wondering, if someone will port 6.0 AOSP... Not CyanogenMod or other forks, they are always unstable and breaking things. And will take a long time anyway.
Sent from Xperia Z via Tapatalk

I'm very happy with the updates we have had and hope that I get 2.5 years of updates on my Z5 most people would have upgraded by now anyway however if I didn't have a phone I would happily purchase the XZ. It's been a damm good phone even with a locked bootloader.

the bootloader is directly connected to the TA Partition and every phone has a unique one so its impossible to change from yes to no

Chasmodo has already said that he wont support marshmallow on Dirtyunicorn for Xperia Z.
If people were expecting Sony to support Xperia Z for as long as they own the device then they were dreaming.
We have a stable 5.1.1 be happy. The device is more than 2.5 years old....

Well we must move on i think. Theres no such thing as "lifetime support". But we can rely on our talented custom rom chef outhere.
May god give them strength and will to port 6.0 to our device.

I don't think Z will get a ported version of Marshmallow from other devices.. May be a CM or AOSP is possible.. But stock one is not possible i think.. May be i am wrong..

This is a new source i hope the z will get marshmallow
