not at all. its quite small in person. xperia all the way
[XPERIA X1 General] Sledutah:
Thank you apprentice for your review, and to JonDeutsch for starting this thread. I could have written your questions/opinions almost word for word. I am in the same place trying to decide which of these 2 phones to get.

I currently have a 8125 (Wizard) that I have flashed WM 6.1 w/M2D. When I had WM5 loaded it was slow and I was having all kinds of lockup & misc problems. Since flashing wm6.1 the phone seems to be on it's second life (faster and no lockups), so now I'm not is as much of a hurry to get into something else.

I went to the att store a few days ago to look at the Fuze. I walked out more confused about which to get. I was not impressed with the Fuze at all. To me, it seemed slow and sluggish for a new model with a cpu that is >2x faster than mine. Comparing it side by side with my 8125 the size was smaller and thinner, but the screen was physically smaller even though they are both supposed to be 2.8".

I was really looking forward to the Omnia also, but since I don't know if it will ever be coming to the US I've moved on to these two models. I also like the Touch HD, but not having 3G for the US won't pass the test either.
[XPERIA X1 General] guap:
exactly ;)
[XPERIA X1 General] danielherrero:
Hi

I think all is said. I owned both devices and I selled my TP. Why?:

1) G-sensor is nice but I dont use it.

2) TV-out is nice but I only used it once to see a film in a hotel but hasnt full support with CorePlayer so the quality isnt very good.

3) Screen is much better in X1. Now you can really surf a web in your sofa.

4) GPS performance is much better in X1

5) Stability is much better in X1

..

So no doubt for me....

Dani
[XPERIA X1 General] Mort:
What led me to the X1 was a combination of the following:

- much longer standby time

- not much bigger than a default cell phone

- I like the X1's keyboard layout better (matter of taste...)

- standard headphone jack

- I prefer "rotate only when keyboard's slide out" to "Oops, I rotated the screen accidentally!". Though I admid the G-sensor would be fun for games. But then again, most games don't even support WVGA, not to mention a propietary G-sensor extension that makes the apps incompatible to everything but a couple of HTC devices...

- X1 is a bit faster in most tests. Though that's probably only a driver thing, the Touch HD is faster than X1 and Raphael with almost the same hardware and WVGA display (more pixels than Raphael).

- I thought the panels are an interesting idea. However, by now I don't give a dime to that. Too propietary, too slow, too limited (few available, max 9 at a time), clumpsy handling (press panel button, touch on screen, wait - every time you want to switch to another panel...), ...

- The WVGA screen - though that's been more of a developer decition, so I've got a test device for that. Otherwise, I would have preferred the more compatible and bigger (in size per pixel) VGA display.

- X1 looks better ;)

- and it was a bit cheaper...

In hindsight, Panels, as mentioned, turned out as a flop for me, and having to use WVGA fix for some games is quite annoying. But otherwise, the additional screen estate is really great (browsing in landscape, lots of infos on the Today screen, more entries in lists, ...), the keyboard is way better than I expected after some reviews, and I like how it feels more like a "dump" cell phone in my pocket and regarding standby time.

The "optical joystick"s really nice in some apps (esp. for slow scrolling - for fast scrolling flicking is better imho), while sometimes a bit too sensible in others. I wish there was a better "(don't) use in that application" configuration then just the few fixed apps (iirc, PIE, contacts, and messaging). But if you don't like it at all, you can just deactivate it completely...
[XPERIA X1 General] apprentice:
You're welcome!

I can't recommend the X1 enough to be honest.

As for the bulkiness issue... it may only be 1mm less in depth (which I didn't realise as it looks a lot more than that!) but it's the difference in width that makes it less bulky. Also long and slim is way easier in your pocket. Finally the corners are nicely rounded. It really handles and looks like a regular 'candy bar' type phone.
[XPERIA X1 General] Mort:
There are other tools for that as well. Additionally, you can simply press the power switch for a few seconds. If you phone isn't crashed completely, a message box whether you really want to switch off is shown (and if it hangs, you're not able to launch something from a panel either...). Turning it on immediately afterwards does the same as a soft reset.

Not only for those. Sometimes I wished for a reset button on other cell phones, too. But yes, the location sucks. Sometimes it faster to temporarily remove the battery...
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] pecola123:
It is built by an unofficial maintainer named "moghn", they have been built rom based on Sjll's device tree since the end of 2021. And has successfully ported some sony features, such as creator mod, stock sony camera, sony sound, battery care, etc to their recent builds of Evolution X.

They have built Los 18.1, and Evolution X for android 12/12.1/13 and so on. However, since they didn't post on XDA, I would just mentioned such roms existed.

-----

Unlocked bootloader is MANDATORY

Download Link : here

Flash instruction : check README in the downloaded file

If anyone found another ROM and want to share, you are very welcome.

I'll include the link later to the first post & maybe mirror it.

And then a list of their built roms.

However, once again, they didn't post on Xda, so I guess they have their own reason.

But i don't have account for Coolapk so no way to contact them.

[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] JaneValley:
And in fact there are also some MIUI or Flyme android 11 based rom made by others in the forum. Again, NOT gsi.
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] shahriyarali:
How to get his? lol. I just want the latest android on my xperia.
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ryo2456:
Just quick study some for their post. seems that they use the GSI image and Xperia 5 image with the binary image to flash Xperia 1.

And still some bug like camera not work, no alarm, cellular or SMS not work.
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Unusual Man:
May I have direct links to this?
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] JaneValley:
Oh well, it is definitely not that case. It is NOT a GSI or any kind........as it is not based on the Sony binary. As I stated, it is a rom based on Sjll's device tree. It works perfectly fine. Camera works (although mine didn't work, due to hardware damage issue), the post they showed with stock Sony camera is a presentation of a sucessfully port. And unless you are using the Japeness Ver, there is no way the SMS service don't work (In my photo there is no any is because I didn't insert one). The only problem I have met is that the format of SD card is only support FAT32.
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] JaneValley:
Link to the Chinese cloud drive

Password: EvCT

Mind few things:

1. The link will expired if it meet the view capacity, which set by the drive service provider.

2. You need an account to download that, which requires a Chinese mainland phone number.

3. You might need an 'excellent' (I can't really know how to define that) network to download it. Because (1) if you didn't download it within a fixed time, the download will be cancelled. Possibly due to the a potential restrcition to non-China mainland IP. (2) In my case, the download speed is incredibly slow, so it is very likely you will encounter the first aforementioned situation.

4. It only supports Chinese language.

I personally recommended you reaches out the developer and get the link. But I can't share their profile link, because (1) Coolapk doesn't support that, (2) It is only accessible in the Coolapk APP. (3) The regesitration of Coolapk account also requires a phone number, with a quick check, it seems like it support non-China phone number.

If you want to try this way, then, after you download the Coolapk APP, just simply search their username 'moghn', and you can go to their profile page.

You have to flash the latest Sony stock firmware first, the rest of procedure is the same as the the rom with a payload bin file > https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-unofficial-pixelos-for-xperia-5-android-12.4355093/ (just in case, the steps are the same for this one)

And yes this is not the latest A12L build, but second to last, GApps included.

[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] project_2501:
Thank you @JaneValley, the 12 version of EvoX is nice. Is there any chance you'd be willing to share the 13 version (maybe there is an updated version, or if not the version with the UI bugs)? Would like to see the difference between the two.
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] JaneValley:
There is no update due to the builder is currently busy. The A13 is not much different from the A12L, but just with more bugs.

One bug I noticed is that an misalignment of both navigation bar and status bar. It is like they are shifting a little bit. No solution unless reboot.

[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] pecola123:
I had no idea. I'm currently on EvoX.

Some say Cherish is smoother than evox.

Can't test it yet because i had to do something with my device 1st.

Maybe you can leave the feedback and post screenshot to us ?

I can link your feedback to the 1st post later
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] xpt1:
I already installed it, Its almose same Like the EvoX, Sony camera also there. U shoud try :-)
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] JaneValley:
Just a update, I found out that if you install this busybox magisk module, SD card can works on the both EvoX and Cherish OS rom. At least I can confirm it works with FAT32 format. I am not so sure about the ext4, but you can give it a try.

About the Cherish OS. It has the same Sony feature as EvoX (Camera, Master mode etc.). But I didn't try the stock Dolby, so I can't tell if the sound crack problem still existed.
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] pecola123:

[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbyamarthaa:
Cherisos can boot perfectly on Bahamut (Xperia 5)

All work well including Dolby.

You only need to put MusicFX into the system/Priv-App to got the audio setting running well (including Dolby)

and also.

required to do clean flash, by returning to the A11 Lastest stock firmware, booting and configuring LTE or Volte, make sure you get the LTE signal, then do Flash Cherisos.

If not, you will get many problems.

Once again, don't flash from another A12 Customroms, it will give you a lot of problems..

[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbyamarthaa:
yes, its works.

but has some bugs.

it's like you can't take pictures on third-party apps, just only can take pictures with the stock cam.

selinux permissive and decrypted data.

look at the thread, I'm using the latest cherish OS 4.2 now.

how to flash?

try this .

1. Ensure youre on Lastest A11 Firmware.

1.1. If not, Flash to Stock Firmware A11 Lastest.

1.2. Boot into SYSTEM, (MANDATORY)

1.3. Set UP APN and Signal settings to 4G.

2. boot to bootloader

3. Flash TWRP X1 by Ferdian / @se.developers ( fastboot flash boot bootname.img)

4. Flash X1 System (fastboot flash system systemname.img)

5. Disable Verity ( fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmetaname.img )

5. Wipe ( fastboot -w )

6. reboot

all file you needed like twrp by ferdian are available on the forums, feel free to search in.

btw, this twrp untouchable on bahamut devices, so use OTG + Mouse if you want to use it.

sorry for bad english, am using translate, lol
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] yogeshpatel7:
I had successfully flash it but one problem which I can face about internal storage can't found during back up device and no apps can install coz of internal storage not found.

Other personalized ring tone can't select
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] JaneValley:
Should add a note here, the newly build Cherish 4.2 (the builder built two Cherish 4.2, the Dec. one is newer) fix the exFat SD card issue. So you can mount your SD card properly this time. I have tried it, and yes it works.

If you boot into the system and still gets a 'a issue with SD card' notification. Just wait for few minutes.

And moreover, doesn't anyone have issue with install app that's more than 150MB (not from Gplay store)? I have met issue with soft reboot, in both Evo 12 and Cherish 4.2 .
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] JaneValley:
I don't have these issues... Was it a clean flash or dirty flash?
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] lcdkhoa:

[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbyamarthaa:
did u solve this with my guide?

No I don't try at time now bussy for sometime
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ryo2456:
Finally get sometime to deal with my X1.

So Evox and CherishOS A13 are buggy then A12. and A12 are the same.

Am I right?

Thanks. I have the 802S0 (softbank) with the latest firmware from the SOV40 (AU) flashed over. I guess my only other concern is banking apps such as Google pay. You need to root your phone and use modules to fix things that aren't working on this, correct? Ex; Dolby sound

Do you mean bank Apps in not working those ROM?
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mike3009:

You might want to check if your phone allows bootloader unlocking first (if you haven't checked already). I have a Softbank 802SO and bootloader unlocking isn't allowed. It seems that the models sold in Japan don't usually allow it.
