Nobody is making upcoming 5.0 for XS btw many @ googleplex might be readying it for the next nexus i'd suggest you start learning compiling and debugging aosp roms while you wait so that when 5.0 finally arrives you don't have to stat a thread like this if nobody else shows interest

Keep in mind that my Xperia X10 was left on gingerbread by Sony (and AT&T stopped at 2.1 eclair). Now the 3 year old phone has run past Ice cream sandwich and Has very nice daily use jelly bean roms.
All thanks to the great XDA developers. Some of them still have/use the device as main phone and a few develop as a 2nd phone.
From my Xperia LT28at ION
I believe developers will do custom ROM for 5.0. After SONY drop jelly bean for Arc S still there are developer supporting the device.

And developpers are still working on XS, trying to make CM 10.1 work the best they can. I hope your XS runs Android 4.2.2...

Sony Mobile has just confirmed that it plans to update ten Xperia handsets to Android 4.3 Jelly Bean from December 2013 onwards. The handsets on the list includes the Xperia Z series (Z, ZL, ZR, Z Ultra, Z1 and Tablet Z) along with the Xperia SP. It also confirmed that a number of older handsets will also get Android 4.3 including the Xperia T, Xperia TX and Xperia V.
A number of recent lower-end handsets have not made the list at all though, including the Xperia L, Xperia M and Xperia C. The Xperia L and Xperia M should be able to handle the upgrade, so maybe Sony has decided not to update these handsets given their positioning. This would be a shame though especially since they only launched within the last six months. The Xperia C has limited availability so we can understand if that was left off due to commercial reasons. We’ll keep you posted as the countdown to the Android 4.3 update commences.

Saw this today also, great news......... 4.4 will also be coming to the Z series also ......
Why they didn't just update directly to 4.4 and skip 4.3? It will make more sense.

RAW File support in adroid 4.4
Hey guys, i read that google is gonna bring RAW file support in android 4.4 so we can have images with zero compression meaning we can have the best our sony can actually provide . As u know, high compression in sony cams is quite an issue, as it deteriorates image quality.

Heres a link for the info http://www.thinkdigit.com/Mobiles-PDAs/Google-to-bring-RAW-images-burst-mode_18463.html

What has been the past order of release -- other than us 6506 guys getting screwed?
I suppose we can all hope for another Commercial and Journalists leak. That would be ideal!
yeah, no longer excited for updates.... always months behind... pretty ridiculous... what the differences ? only LTE ? we still haven't gotten the latest 4.3 update yet.... lack of support for NA

Don't know if gizmochina is a reliable source of information.. but i'm sure about another thing.
At the moment, KK roms, compared to JB (B125), aren't good: bad performance, laggy, some bugs.. (for example.. i hate that 3G icon stucked in the status bar when mobile data are switched off)
I don't understand Huawei.. they release a lot of beta, new UI, new os. Is to so hard to make only ONE well optimized update?
Hi and thank you for (hope good) news :highfive:

sadly that isnt what the community wants..
when Huawei started to improve the old firmware, everybody was going crazy because they don"t release the KitKat software.
So they brought out the KitKat software and everyone was going crazy that the software was not optimized.. so Huawei will start to improve this software too..
and i bet most of the people will blame Huawei for not giving the new Android L for the P6 but giving new updates on Kitkat which will improve the system.... but that are only my 2 cents about the community...

This is true. According to Huawei, the P6/P6S will get the update in November. I don't have a link to the Chinese Huawei forum, but that was where I saw this info first.

I also asked the chinese people in the comments, one of them answered that its true that the p6 will get EMUI 3.0 in November. So nothing lost in translation.
November could be a beta release, and the beta firmware being incompletely packed. So 1 month of beta test, and then another month of waiting for offical release, which means the stable complete version would be released on January.

Hello! [emoji4]
Nope, I don't, unfortunately, but this isn't the place to discuss themes anyway. [emoji6]
I readed it here and translated with google translate
http://www.huaweiblog.de/emotionui-2/emui-3-0-ab-ende-september-zum-download-verfuegbar/
"EMUI 3.0 available for download from the end of September
In August we had already Huawei 3.0 new version of its user interface EmotionUI reported. This was then officially launched and announced that the EmotionUI version 3.0 only EMUI says on the IFA2014 in Berlin Huawei. The first devices with EMUI 3.0 there also the new high-end and mid-range flagship Ascend Ascend Mate 7 and G7 was introduced.
Now there is good news for many other instruments from Huawei. In addition to the Mate 7 and the G7 will be EMUI 3.0 updates for the following smartphones.
Huawei Honor 6
Huawei Ascend P7
Huawei Ascend P6
Huawei Ascend Mate 2
Huawei Honor 3X
Huawei Ascend G750
Beginning September 30, updates for the Honor 6 and the Ascend P7 should be available. A little later because new firmwares with EMUI 3.0 should follow the other devices mentioned above. The updates will be initially distributed in China. Whether the international updates are simultaneously available, we could not bring in experience. But we'll keep you up to date."

I'm a bit confused where Huawei is going with this phone.
We still don't have a fully functional, bug free or optimised EMUI 2.0/2.3 - Android 4.4.x Rom, yet they're moving ahead with EMUI 3.0?
For many people, including myself, EMUI 1.6 + JB 4.2.2 is still the fastest, most stable, and most battery friendly Rom we have.

Could be because they were not happy with Emui2.3 and therefore no longer wanted to improve on it and instead jump straight to 3.0. The Chinese P6 users never had a Emui2.3 released and so they had Emui3.0 in plans back at the time when Emui2.3 was released for international users.

No Z series on the list
http://www.xperiablog.net/2017/08/31/sony-confirms-android-8-0-oreo-rollout/
Why Z5 series not receive android 8 ?
Whyyyyyyyyyyy
what? no xperia Z5 android 8? affff, need send email to sony claim this...
-_- there ahould be someone to port custom android 8 rom for us
Sony ditched Z family.
Well the Z5P came with Lollipop so Nougat was suppose to be the last since Sony only gives 2 major updates to flagships
"2 major updates already rolled out". That's ok, but it cannot be an acceptable reason. No hardware requirements which can block Oreo release for Snapdragon810. Nexus 6P will get the update, and it have very close hardware. Also the Z5P is a premium device with high price, it should get more support.

Only issue I see atm, is that we need a kernel 4.4 and for some reson Sony has removed Z series from their kernel git
no news about android 8 oreo ?
It seems there won't be official -- I reached out to the Sony Blog which posted the news on their site, and got a reply:

any android 8 custom rom for z5 premium ???

Xperia z updated to Android 8 by lineage os.
Can anyone port android 8 for our device?
Whan lineage start supporting z5 premium?
https://twitter.com/sonyxperiagb/status/951371712700014592
Asked Xperia UK and they replied
Hello!
Our Android upgrade policy is to support all premium range devices for eighteen months after the device has launched, which excludes devices that came to market before those listed.
Therefore, the Xperia Z5 Premium will not receive the Oreo update.

That's just sad. Why is there an artificial lifetime for this device? It's an expensive device, and it sucks that it's only supported for 18 months.

its better that z5p is not reciving oreo!
horrible batter performances on oreo has been observed!
in my views dec2016 build z5p on android 6.01 was THE BEST!
