Sony Xperia X (suzu/F5121 & F5122)

Hi, is the procedure described in the first post still correct, or is there a shorter way of doing it?

I've followd this first post on my X with SFOS and it worked straight forward ...

From SFOS, I've only reflashed SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_N_MR1_5.7_r1_v08_loire.img and install Ubuntu through UBports Installer

The remaining problems for me are :
when connected to my car, the mic is not redirected to the one from the car. So, I can't use the phone to call someone or answer :(.
flash doesn't work with the camera app (but flashlight does).
looks like when calling someone, using the speaker doesn't work
no way to connect to my exchange account ... but that's another story .

If I take back my list :
Problems are still there except that with before version 213, when enabling the bluetooth, it was not really enabled and I had to reboot the device to make the bluetooth enabled.
With version 213, when you enable the bluetooth from the top menu, it is now really enabled.
But still the same problem with the mic when phone is connected to my car during a call.

@mousse04 audio rerouting is faulty at the moment, it might take some time until that is fixed.

I have reflashed the device yesterday.

GPS doesn't work - with or without sim card.

Does anyone have an idea, what could be the problem?

fredldotme

@makeixo I've used GPS just yesterday with a SIM inserted. You probably need to be outside and walk a short while. Took me around 30 secs to get a fix. How long do you wait for a fix?

makeixo

Ok thanks. I will try that out today.

Well, I tried it several times during the day - but inside.

Hi @fredldotme , I rereceived an update of ubuntu touch almost everyday . I suppose it doesn't come from you? so, is there a way to get.a changelog ?

thanks.

@mousse04 those updates are from me. Not really a changelog but you can follow here for most changes that go into making the port: https://github.com/fredldotme?tab=repositories

@fredldotme Is the community channel using devel rootfs? How is that triggered together with your changes?

fredldotme

@Flohack the armhf one is based on devel, the arm64 build is running edge. I don't know the specifics about ota-push but it's triggered after halium-suzu

flohack

@fredldotme Well it depends on which channel you are, @mousse04 might have been talking about the daily devel builds of the rootfs, and no, we do not have a changelog for them ^^

mousse04

@fredldotme Thanks. Actually, my sentence should have been (and was in my mind :)), "I suppose it does come from you".
Great, looks like you work a lot on that port

mousse04

@Flohack That's a good question and I didn't even know that we could select different channel with a port ...
So, to answer the question, the default channel ...

Hi @fredldotme,
since several system updates, I have many apps that do not work anymore.
instagraph, tweetdeck, sailbook.

they opened but stay blank completely.

any ideas?

hummlbach

I guess thats due to the removal of oxide.(?) People need to update their (web)apps to use Morph.Web or something instead.
So not a suzu specific problem I think.

Hello everyone, i am new to this forum and i was searching for a port for my Xperia X Compact. It seems that it is abandoned since 2018.

As the Compact (kugo) is the same Sony platform (loire), have anyone got any idea how much would need to be changed to make use of this port for the "suzu" hardware?

ttlehto

Really, now that every place will be closed for the next few weeks at least and my calendar went empty until june, i think i have time to try making a port for my X Compact. Just looking for someone to point what would be the most reasonable way to start. Propably it does not make sense to start completely from scratch because these two devices are close to similar in hardware?

fredldotme

@ttlehto check out this project management issue here: https://github.com/Halium/projectmanagement/issues/103

As the author has pushed his changes to GitHub you should be able to build and complete the port on your own.

Hi,

I have followed all the instructions and I can't install Ubports on my Xperia X F5121.

Here is the error message that appears in Ubports-installer:

Error: systemimage: Error: Error: Error: {"error":{"killed":false, "code":1, "signal":null, "cmd":"/tmp/.mount_ubportHpMI61/resources/app.asar. unpacked/plateform-tools/linux/adb -P 5037 shell mount -a"}, "stdout":""", "stderr": "mount: mounting /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/oem on /odm failed: Invalid argument"}.

For information I can install LineageOS without any problem and it works correctly.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-x/development/rom-lineageos-15-1-xperia-x-t3862508

I have observed error messages when flashing LineageOS with TWRP :

failed to mount '/oem' (Invalid argument)
failed to mount '/vendor' (Invalid argument)

This does not stop the installation of LineageOS, but maybe it has something to do with the problem blocking the installation of Ubports?

I also have a question about the first step "Make sure to upgrade your device to the latest stock Android 8.0 before continuing". First I used flash-tool with windows because with Debian it doesn't work... then there are several "services" you can choose from, how do you know which one is the right one? And is it necessary to install both firmware and software services of the same version ? I've done both and tried several vesions (FR, NOBA, UK...) and I encountered the same problem with Ubports-installer.

Thanks for the work done and thanks for your help.
