Android "N" as in "No nougat for the Z3 line"...

http://blogs.sonymobile.com/2016/08...ndroid-7-0-nougat/?k=1471977631#comment-65567
I'm disappointed. I really hoped that it would get it with the Xperia Z3 N Preview program. What was the point of that ??

I am both surprised and disappointed. The Z3C is a great device, and the failure by Sony to update it to Nougat is anticlimactic, to say the least. I was planning to buy the tablet; I guess I'll have to look elsewhere now

It's actually a bit more complicated than that. I've read from a few sources that actually Google is to blame for removing msm8974 code from AOSP and so Sony has no option but to deny an official Nougat update to these devices. As for the fact that the z3 phone got some N preview builds, well, they stopped at build 3, it didn't recieve builds 4 and 5. It is assumed that it's cause it's actually in build 4 that Google removed code for our SoC. We'll see how things turn out.
EDIT: It turns out it might even be on Qualcomm as it is the chipset manufacturer to decide whether it will support and make drivers for their chipset that work with the new OS version. Although I doubt such decisions are made without consulting Google.

Interesting. I had no idea it went that deep to google and Qualcomm even.
Oh well it's a shame as as the z3 compact is a great device. The best tablet I've ever owned for sure. And I've had a few. Would have been nice to have true android multitasking windows.

That's really all I wanted for the Z3T : native multi-window.
If only they were developers working on the Z3 line... :/

I realize our device is old, but what we need is a little push in our dev scene. I remember for the Xperia Z Ultra some users got together and paid a dev to develop a kernel. Maybe something similar has been done here?
Either way, we aren't that many here which means there are even less devs. Could we manage to scrape together an amount any good dev would consider to build us a working, updated build of Nougat or Cyanogen?

But ...
developer.sonymobile.com/build-aosp-nougat-7-0
or don't work for this tablet?

I'm fairly sure that if there was more interest for the Z3 Tablet, we'd get decent Nougat custom roms in the end. But the devs are just not there. We could always make a bounty but these things don't work out so well most of the time...

I suppose scorpion_windy is for our devices? And will it work with the sgp 611?

sgp611 is the wifi-only model and codenamed scorpion_windy.
i've got the lte version -> scorpion.

new builds are up at https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=109243
edit: after some testings this is not ready as a daily driver because on reboot i get sometimes a bootloop and without fastboot and reflash it often won`t boot.
hopefully cm14 will come along quicker with this as base.

I didn't think there was an unlock for the 621?

AICP N

AOSP rom anyone?

I'm planning on buying the 4gb 128gb version from aliexpress, but there's no vanilla android(Pure stock android) rom for this phone. The reason why I want stock Android is because I need Gravitybox as it's a must when I get a new phone. So will we see an AOSP rom anytime soon?

No. Buy a OnePlus 3T. Or an HTC 10. Or an Honor 8, they have a mostly fully working cm13 ROM.

I was thinking of buying one of those as well but they all have dealbreaking issues.
OnePlus 3T: Poor display for VR
HTC 10: Too small
Honor 8: No 4K recording
Guess I'm stuck with the Axon 7.

And software is a bigger deal breaker than all of those things you've mentioned. At the end of the day, you do whatever you want to do, but the Axon 7 isn't as good as any of those mentioned phones, solely on the software experience and dev community.

We have an almost working CM13 that many use as daily driver and, IMHO, CM does not need Gravitybox (I agree AOSP badly needs it).
But if I could go back, I would take a harder look at OP3T for exactly the software issue.

Gravity box works except for the quick settings tweaks.

Hola
Just to add my experience, I was one of those who really was interested in the Axon 7 since it was announced earlier this year (MWC 2016 in Feb??), so I purchased it the instant it was released. The hardware is undoubtedly top notch except:
1. The crappy capacitive buttons that are placed too close together.
2. Stupid vibration setup - Either on or off with no vibration intensity configuration.
3. Non-existent granular volume level controls - Yes you can increase or decrease the overall volume, but the increments are too far apart (this could be a software limitation though).
So I've used it for a month or so but because of the lack of a near complete AOSP or CM based ROM (mostly due to ZTE's slowness in providing source and a number of proprietary blobs), I really yearned for my ability to try different ROMs and flash different add-ons like I was accustomed to. So I end up buying the OnePlus 3T. Man it was nice to use and experience a phone that can garner so many devs. If only the 3T had dual front facing speakers, expandable storage, and that QHD res screen, then it would have been the best of the best in my opinion.
I am now back to using the Axon 7 using one of those slightly modified ZTE based ROMs with Xposed. I consume a lot of media on my phone. I still keep my 3T for testing out new dev ROMs like RR or CM.
Seems like OEMs can't make a phone that provides great hardware (e.g. A7) while providing access to firmware sources and letting dev community to thrive.

Sorry bruh, I'm not a developer, and I didn't like programming much. Someone should port a stock rom from Oneplus 3/3t to this phone instead. That would be great.

Oneplus 3T? Nope, no card slot. HTC 10, overpriced junk, and single sim. Honor 8, Hisilicon Kirin, nope. I prefer snapdragon because most apps on the play store, and some special features are made uniquely for snapdragon chips.
Not interested in cm13/14 because I can't use gravitybox on it.
So the Axon 7 is a great buy. The 4gb/128gb version if sold in most countries will actually sell like hot cakes.

No CM13 doesn't need gravitybox, but I find more features on gravitybox than on CM13. CM13 doesn't work really well with gravitybox as I'm using it on my current phone till Rovo builds xposed for Android 7.1, and I'm currently experiencing some automatic shutdowns on this rom. I own a Jiayu s3,(Has a mediatek chipset)and I'm looking to upgrade to the Axon 7 because of the amazing speakers and the camera.
On the CM13 thread, it says that the GPS is working, but something is written about QC location. What's QC there?

I actually need the quick settings tweaks because I need the switcher. 2g only, 3g only, 4g only, 4g/3g. It's important because sometimes the phone automatically switches from 4g to 3g if it thinks the 4g signal is less. And 4g uses band 3, 1800MHz whereas 3g uses 2100MHz(no clue about the band number here).
So I need to keep it on 4g only in this case.
And in some areas, neither 4g nor 3g is available, so I'll have to make do with 2g.

Qualcomm izat doesn't work but then again that is mostly superfluous if you have Google services.
Right now, GPS works on Cm13 but is not super accurate {probably 20 meters or so}

Come on now people, we all know how it works by now. They are fixing some issues on CM13 as we speak. Once CM13 is made official, the custom rom flood gates will open. Give it time.

Gravity Box work perfect on Stock Rom, no need of AOSP ROM for GB to work.
Gravity Box and App Settings (v1.13) are my have to have modules in Xposed and they work great.

IMO the axon 7 is better than the one plus 3 or honor 8 (in terms of hardware) but the lack of roms is definitely a deal breaker for some people. However in about a week or so I'm going to start working on porting AOSP to the axon 7. Iv'e never ported a rom before so I can't make any promises on when it'll be done (if ever lol). I know a thing or two about programming so I think I'll be able to figure something out, so stay tuned!

It wouldn't be easy starting out now, and it'll take a while. You could start by heading over to the op3 thread and see any AOSP Marshmallow rom.
Then maybe ask in the Q&A section for porting this rom to the Axon 7.

Damn. Yeah it interfered with the system quicksettings, and caused a bootloop. I think I might have to go with the CM13 rom in this case.

Same thing happened with cm14 for the Moto X pure, once it got finished, more and more 7.1.1 roms started flooding in xD.

ROMs

I have had the S7 Edge about a week now ... (I , for obvious reasons avoided the ROM threads, and sent out a few PM's) but I have a questions ...
Coming from a Nexus 6 that had some varied development (Stock, AOSP, Lineage and multiple variants like RR, etc) I'm a little baffled .... I see several ROMs here but I can't for the life of me figure out what the differences are (even in theory) ... they all seem to be about the same thing -- except for some require a paid for ROM control or similar.
Are there any of you more s7 Edge "long-timers" that can offer some insight -- even if it's just theory (like I noticed that Renovate does the SVN thing which is nice ----- but can be an issue for a flashaholic LOL)
Currently I'm using Superman -- but would love to use something like RR if I could get Magisk Hide to work and the camera didn't suck so bad

Camera will pretty much stay that way, but when we finally get a stable build, it's quality may improve a bit.
Also for magisk, the developer of the rom just has to fix this issue, but that is not a big surprise, considering that the rom is still in beta and about two months old only.

If there is one thing to know, Samsung devices and AOSP ROMs aren't a thing. Most ROMs (even for other devices I have used/seen such as the HTC 10) are simply modifications to the stock ROM with what the dev feels is needed. It's all about seeing what ROM has the modifications that satisfy you the most.
In my own case, I couldn't use Superman ROM with encryption and modified CSC file so I chose to use another modified stock ROM (Helios) that has the option to flash a custom CSC file and have an encrypted system. Same base, different priorities etc

How many tab 2's still living ????

I just wanted to ask how many tab 2's are still living in this world. It's just out of curiosity because I saw 2-3 people still installing custom ROMs. I have one p3100 running lineage 13. Which rom are you on ??????

P5110 with RR 5.7.4 and no gapps. I'm very satisfied with it.
I tried to install Omni rom and Slim rom, Nougat version, but there were too many lags after a while. Maybe I'll try Andy's roms in their Marshmallow version.

I just resurrected my tablet with TWRP 3.4.0, Lineage 14.1 and Open Gapps due to Youtube problems with the original firmware. Working for about 12 hours, so far so good.

Before android andi's rom, it was lineageos and its much much slower until unusable. I think it's got hardware issue somewhere.

probably at least 1389

I just revied mine. It's pretty old almost a decade, or IDK even more? Tab 2 7" GT-P3100. I have installed Resurrection Remix by @smart-t78 and Noob Kernel by @bipindr123 because of the sweet 1.2 GHz overclock. I have installed it yesterday. Batteryis alright. extSD card port not working. Ther's a bit orangish tint on top left, but overall usable completely.
There are some stuff though which I want to clear. In the default launcher if you are home screen and rotate your Tab then you have this ugly gray overlay/shadow on left and right side of the screen, I'm trying to get rid of it. Looks like I will need to download a launcher or something. Also want to change the fonts and icon. Just that. Also AdAway is not getting installed, seems like I have to install and older version because it says it cannot parse the APK package while instealling.
I want to use this tab as a secondary monitor to my PC, look for it how to do it, but first theme stuff.
I also will suggest to root your device and then use some kind of kernel editor to choose governor for CPU (default is Interactive which works alright) and also tweet I/O scheduler according to your need. Look for the guides of these things if you are not familiar with the terms.

Just bought a GT2 P5110 for 30€ in almost new condition. Want to upgrade to a custom Rom before I do anything else because this is easier when there is nothing on it.
Research suggests I should stick with Marshmallow - currently going to try RR5.7.4 first with Omni6.0.1 as a reserve (unless anyone has a better experience with an equivalent or newer ROM).
Not sure whether I am going to add Gapps or not yet. I am probably going to want to have (at a minimum) Google Calendar access and perhaps Gmail. What do people recommend?
Any other thoughts on rooting, Magisk, custom kernels etc to get better stability (and performance)?

Look it up here on xda

Is this a serious thread?
You could maybe get the launcher and some bits, but bare in mind that not even the OnePlus camera is ported to custom ROMs that aren't OOS.
Frankly I think the chance of getting a Samsung OS port OnePlus is between 0-1%
I really don't understand why anyone would want it.
If you want to do it then good luck..

Great, good for you.
This will not happen on this device..
If it does it'll be broken, Samsung does not make it easy to port their stuff.
LG? I don't think they care anymore.
Motorola? Pretty sure they're owned by Google or were, so wouldn't imagine the leap being massive.
But the amount of services and crap you'd need to port one UI correctly, sorry but it's not happening.

Lol brilliant..
Wasn't saying impossible lol. Just very very unlikely.
Let's see how it pans out.
More the merrier in my eyes, just don't see it being good and there will be a tonne of hurdles.

Like I said
What doesn't work / Bugs:
NFC
Alert Slider(duh?)
Auto Rotation toggle doesn't do anything so keep it disabled.
Brightness goes from 50% at the minimum to 100% very quickly so You can only use 50,75,100% within 1mm of slider length.
Vibrations
FP Scanner
AOD brightness is always 100%
RIL
Samsung Cloud has problems with logging in.
Bixby probably would work but has to be updated. (Use APKMirror and try!)
Probably more stuff. Working on fixing all bugs.
Is it worth it? To me? No.

Why not just get a Samsung? Never quite understood why people buy a phone, then flash a Port on it. I mean if you want MIUI by a Xiaomi, if you want One UI buy a Samsung.

I agree mate, unless you're in the UK in which case you'd be getting the exynos chipset which is pretty crap.
Don't get me wrong is someone makes a fully functional or even semi functional ROM from any other device then yes it's great, I just know Samsung as I've had a few and their OS is just not for the faint of heart, even their watches were hard to port android to (older ones specifically)
But yea, if you want OneUi, there's only one real way to get it
