[Sony Xperia E1] nysascape:
Hey guys, I am making this post for everyone to see and to use as a resource.

I OWN NO THREADS THAT ARE LINKED IN THIS POST - HUGE THANKS TO THEM FOR MAKING THESE ROMS :D​

When XDA gave us our own thread, people were really exicted to have our own thread to post ROM's to (we couldn't really find them), but Sony decided to not give us AOSP support. Which means no support from Sony, no kernel updates and no vendor sources, so at this point we were really stuck. There has not been a custom ROM from sources (just hang on, there is, I'll explain in a sec) so that means no CM-based ROM's. Until this point, we only have incomplete, buggy ports and UI modified stock ROM's with some optional settings, but we are still stuck on a stable 4.4.2. So there had to be a miracle...

And there was one.

@Caio99BR made a breakthrough the other day, starting with a custom kernel (Which you can find right here) and then he started on TWRP (a custom recovery which you can find here) and then he got to building CM11 from scratch. Not a port, from sources which we have built over the years. Again, you can find CM11 here. Again, congrats to @Caio99BR for building that kernel, recovery and ROM. He is developing it every day, and soon it'll be stable. Go check him out and give his profile some love :)

Well done also to the people that have built these ROM's that I am about to mention. Use this as a resource for these ROM's, as most are outdated. I will update this post if I find another ROM, and if I miss you, don't hesitate to comment or PM asking for your ROM to be put up here.

And, really that's all. I hope you appricated this post - it took me a long time to make, and if you did give it a :good:. All ROM's here belong to their respected owners - I do not own them.

I hope this helped you, and if so enjoy the new freedom of Xperia E1! :D
