If you want to know more in depth the differences between both versions, just search the differences between Android 10 and Android 11 because this ROM is based on native Android system :)

Unable to open hidden setting under *#*#4636#*#* on my J1 4G SM-J120G. I have tried these with no results:

Using different phone app, Truecaller, apps like force LTE only which directly open the menu, most of the other codes like*#06#, etc are working but this *#*#4636#*#*. I need it to set my device to 4G/LTE only as it many times automatically goes to 2g even though i have set LTE/3G/2G from settings → Mobile networks. Can anyone help me with this issue.

[ROM][11.0][4.9][AOSP][SUZU] Explosive Lobster

SUZU F5121 and F5122

Hi! Just wanna share with you Android 11 ROM builded for Sony Xperia X (will never die)

Many Thanks for development @Cubbins

I'm not responsible for any damage caused with your device after flashing this ROM. Flash only on your own risk.

This ROM bring us Treble support ( ARM64 A/B ) structure for all GSI images based on 11 Android. Just flash any GSI at System partition after it.

How to Install:

1) Copy ROM to SD card and flash with recovery

2) Download SW_BINARIES_FOR_XPERIA_ANDROID_9.0_2.3.2_V9_LOIRE.ZIP, unzip and copy image to sdcard too

3) Flash Binaries with recovery to OEM/ODM partition

4) reboot

5) After reboot we need to flash/format userdata partition. So, download it and flash with ADB: fastboot flash userdata userdata.img or fastboot erase userdata

6) reboot.

Warning:

We use /cache partition at thid ROM as a /vendor, so if you format /cache partition on recovery - you'll catch a bootloop.

Features:

Working:

- Wi-Fi

- Bluetooth

- Fingerprint

- Sensors

- Camera

- Calling

- Music Playing

- GPS

- Encrypting Data

Not Working:

Great work!
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] GOrMHATRe:
Nice work dude. I am yet to flash but I appreciate your efforts. But I am using a custom rom already. Do I need to reflash stock rom before flashing your rom ? Is there any way to flash without sd card by using adb?
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] lubik1:
No, you don't. You can try flash from internal storage, but you can't flash rom with adb
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] pitfallykmr:
@lubik It looks like there is an issue with calls. I can't hear a companion and companion can't hear me. Microphone and speakers work correctly if you try Google search...
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] lubik1:
Tomorrow I will build a new version with a fix, latest sources and kernel security patch.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] lubik1:
Updated.

Changelog:

1) Fixed Calling

2) Fixed Music Playing

3) Fixed recovery (bug with AOSP recovery installing after reboot)

4) Latest Sources and security patch

Awesome work dude, never thought android R making it's way to xperia X.. 👍🏻
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] danidarklord:
Amazing, I never thought I will ever experience android 11 on this device. Thank you😘
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Cubbins:
Good job guys! Thank you!😚
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] tamisoft:
I would be coming from Q TWRP 3.3.1, but selecting the zip to install gives E1001: failed to update system image. Is there something I am forgetting? (it already has the ODM partition flashed for Q)
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] pitfallykmr:
You can try TWRP 3.4. It works fine for me.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] tamisoft:
Thank you it works with that. :)
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] tamisoft:
Which gapps do you recommend? I tried NikGapps full but fingerprint unlock seems to be missing, also I couldn't encrypt the phone. It fails to mount userdata on next boot, and causes a bootloop on zygote. Also I have noticed a changed behavior with the new ODM partition, if the charger is connected it comes up on reboot in some factory flashing mode (just reports android in usb descriptor, and there is no fastboot or adb, and nothing on the screen)

Update: Fingerprint just works slightly differently, but works OK. Encrypt is the next to tackle.

Update2: So interestingly fingerprint unlock works, but use biometry option is missing from the apps. Is it related the device not being encrypted?
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] pitfallykmr:
You can try Flamegapps.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] lubik1:
New build is up!

Changelog:

1) Added Calculator as system app

2) Fixed offline charging and wake up when charging in offline mode

3) Added F5122 variant on download repository

On next build:

1) Fix userdata earlymount (changed to late mount state)

2) Fix for Data Encrypting/Decrypting (same on TWRP)

3) Support EL for Kugo device

4) Support for old TWRP's

5) GPS upgrade
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] MichaBit:
What do you think about everyday usage and battery drain?

I ask that because switching from Omnirom 7 to 8, battery sucking was a disaster.

Will this update solve my recovery 3.3.1 error 1 problem?

Twrp 3.4 doesn't work for me, I guess because I bought my device with Android 7 and the bootloader from 8 is required?

Or to put it another way: Will installing stock android 8 first solve my problem?
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] lubik1:
It's not a SODP-based ROM, it's a clean AOSP build. Any another custom ROM on this forum based on SODP or on the Stock fw, thats why it's a unical ROM with low battery consumption (like on a stock 8.0, maybe 5-15% more becouse of Android version and more optimisation by Sony's developers)

Yep, next update of this ROM will be compatible with old versions of TWRP recovery, becouse Pavel @Cubbins did a trick with symlinking new bootloader location with "ln" command to old bootloader path: /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name.

Yes you right. For any new ROM (begining from 9 Android) you need new bootloader on your device. It will be automaticaly update if you flash a stock 8.0 ROM with Emma or FlashTool

Yes it did.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] zaqm:
Hello @lubik1 . Does your rom suffer from the kernel panics that cause the random reboot problems or since it's pure Aosp it doesn't have it?

Thanks for your hard work!
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Cubbins:
Sometimes you can get kernel panic when you turn on the device. But while using android, I didn't observe kernel panic, but I have not run any stability tests yet, so everything is possible. I'm working on it.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] SalamiPUNCH:
It would be great if the developer fixed it, I'd love to use this ROM as daily driver.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] twain55:
Anybody got GCam working on this? 6.2 (from the Pie treble thread) works fine but opening the video section crashes the app.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] GOrMHATRe:
Like I said earlier Dev is not active much. Hence I had to switch to AISP 10 based rom as well.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] SalamiPUNCH:
Is that ROM stable? If so then can you please send me the link to it? 😃
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] GOrMHATRe:
It is AOSP10r41 by VKnecht. You can find the thread on roms page. It is mostly stable. Not many reboots. Gps does not work for me though. Otherwise it's fine.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] SalamiPUNCH:
Okay, thanks for the details man. Even though I need gps most of the time I'll still try it out. 😃
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] romano64:
Hello, this rom have Unlimited Google Photos upload ? Thanks for your response :)
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] ParanoidNemo:
No ROM as it. Only pixel devices have unlimited photos upload. It's related to the device not to the ROM your using
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] tareqabamawi:
Is this rom stable right now ?

what is working and not working on this rom ?
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] 57op:
no, it's not stable. i've used it for several months, until i couldn't anymore.

freezes and random reboots are the main issues.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Aladdin.Attopy:
Runs smoothly on my device except sometimes the phone just freeze and won't respond so I have to HARD POWER OFF and POWER ON to make it work.

- Connecting my bluetooth headseet (LG HBS900) that supports HD Audio (Qualcomm aptX audio) keeps connecting and disconnecting, so I had to turn HD Audio (OFF) on my bluetooth headset options to fix this bug.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] human7000:
Hello. I've tried following the installation instructions in the first post using twrp-3.3.1.0. The ROM installs, but the firmware is not visible from the install menu. It is visible in the file browser.

Can anyone help me on from here? How do I flash the firmware file to the OEM partition?
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] kereth:
Have You tried tapping "Install Image" after selecting "Install"? This is more connected to TWRP then to this ROM I believe by the way.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] human7000:
Thanks a lot for the reply. I had missed that option. It did it, the phone boots.

Maybe it should've been posted under twrp.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Superkenel:
Hi ! Do you know a ROM with working GPS on Xperia X suzu ? I have some issue with lineage os.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] mase76:
I think, the further Android support ended for this device. There are only very old ROMs available. I wouldn't use these, because of some very annoying bugs and the very old patchlevel. If you want to continue using this device, I recomment to switch to SailfishOS, which still delivers updates.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Superkenel:
Thanks you so much I didn't know sailffish os and Xperia X.

In order to play with android and stuff like that, I've bought a rebuilded as new Xperia X from aliexpess for 60€+12€ taxes ans fees. It's like new ( low price high 4G compatibillity, ubuntu, lineage os, 3Go Ram, 6 cores ).

I am actually using it only to play with OS ;-), but nyway when I'll get a fully working degooglesided phone I've some friends that are really interested to buy some may be for 82-87 € ( I'll charge 10-15€ because I've spend a lo of time ).

Actually I'm using an old GSM phone ( but the 2G GPRS antenna are going to close ), and an unrooted wiko UFeel ( only for the GPS in car, or internet in hollidays ).
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Superkenel:
That's not really good, Sailfish os for Xperia X is 4.4.4 Android support and 49.90 € : lol !
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] mase76:
I am not talking about Android support in SFOS. When I want to use Android apps, I have to buy an AOSP maintained Android phone. When I install SFOS, I want to use native apps. You can use a free version without Android support. Maybe SFOS isn't the OS you want to use, but it is definitely the best solution for this device now. Sony will not fix the kernel bugs. Sad to say, Android on this device is dead. I also had to abandon this device. The hardware is still ok for me, but the software is not.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] zaqm:
I've read that it's connected with the max cpu frequency which in 4.9 kernel is 2.1 or 2.2 Ghz and Sdm 650 supports up to 1.8.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Cubbins:
we respect "default" freqs which came from CAF

[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] zaqm:
Can't find right now the commit that was used to "fix" the reboots but there was sth with the frequencies. Nevermind let's hope that this rom is not affected by this issue.

EDIT: found the fix https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/kernel/pull/2262 but this is only when the cpu is overclocked.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Cubbins:
According to my previous message we are using 1.8 GHz for A72 cores and downstream clock framework.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] zaqm:
Yes, I get it. Ok
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] tamisoft:
Meant to ask if it is a normal behavior on the phone that since unlocking the bootloader, the reboots go to some limbo mode if the pc is connected. (Led indicates blue, as if it was fastboot, but device manager says just: Android).

You put quite a bit of work into this! :) Respect
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] lubik1:

Hey, Wi-Fi doesn't work on my F5122. adb logcat says something like init vendor hal failed-has some problems with kernel. I tried both, the kernel downloaded from Sony's website and the kernel linked in the google drive folder, but none of them work. I followed the steps exactly as mentioned. I even tried again after reflashing stock firmware, but no luck..

[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] mase76:
For MicroG this patch is necessary:

UnifiedNlp/patches/android_frameworks_base-N.patch at master · microg/UnifiedNlp

Alternative network location provider for Android, with plugin interface to easily integrate third-party location providers. - microg/UnifiedNlp

github.com

It would also work with Nanodroid, but it would be nice, if you could apply the patch.

When there are no more Bluetooth and random reboot issues, I will give it a try. This could be the only available AOSP ROM with a recent security level. Thanks for that!
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] tbspoon:
It would be great. I have tried to install microG but the rom does not support signature spoofing. Except that it works very well. Thanks for the work.

Thank you!;)

But does this ROM not have FOTAkernel?

[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] mase76:
The device is still my daily driver and Nanodroid does not work with Android 11. So I am hopefully waiting for a build patched to support MicroG, before I can test. Otherwise I would not able to use Exposure Notifications any more.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Cubbins:
Upcoming update (later this week):

Jan 5, 2021 security patch.

Kernel tag update as well as the rest sources.

GPS improvements.

Fixed compressed audio offload.

Fixed VoIP (microphone in apps such as Discord, Skype, etc).

Signature spoofing support.

Added some default apps such as Music, Gallery.

Default Camera app replaced with SnapdragonCamera.

Improved camera stability in third-party apps.

Initial Xperia X Compact build (Loire Kugo).
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] mase76:
Please also add the UnifiedNLP Patch. Then there would be full MicroG support.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] tamisoft:
This started happening after your firmware was installed. I think it was ok until only TWRP was the only change, but still on stock firmware. Does the update repartition the phone on first run?
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] tamisoft:
Can anyone check if banking apps or bitwarden like password managers can detect the fingerprint reader? For me it is not there and some hardware inventory apps show it is missing, some show: capable.

Also the HW itself works, because the lock screen can unlock using the enrolled fingers. Can it be some policy settings not advertising the biometrics api to the framework, so apps don't see it?
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Cubbins:
That patch is incompatible with modern Android verions. In any case I can set any location provider even without it.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Cubbins:
I can use it on a fresh build
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Cubbins:
We use cache partition as vendor (wonder why this is not in the description) so you need to do a FULL wipe before returning to stock. Maybe in the future I will come up with a better solution, but not now. Now there are more critical things to fix.
[Sony Xperia X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] lubik1:
Sorry it's my bad. As Pavel says, we use /cache partition as /vendor, so formatting this partition not recomended at this time, maybe later we have a better solution for it.

Two more issues probably connected to Bluetooth.

1. After a while, connection is lost to smartwatch and can't reconnect (tried with Amazfit/Zepp Stratos 3)

2. Same happens with headphones for music and after turning the headphones off, there was no notification or media sound from the phone (calls were okay though).

I have noticed one other thing, the camera seems to underexpose images by a lot, and it is pretty useless in the dark outside now. Like ISO is not stepping up. (came from stock android 8, so I don't know about 9-10) Noticed in the video recordings/previewsome green line noise sometimes as well, tried google camera and open camera.

Anyone noticed it?
