Sony Xperia X (suzu/F5121 & F5122)

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 · 8 Mar 2020, 09:34

@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 · 8 Mar 2020, 09:38

Ok thanks. I will try that out today.

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

@fredldotme said in Sony Xperia X (suzu/F5121):

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

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.

Mathieu

@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 · 8 Mar 2020, 21:17

@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 · 8 Mar 2020, 21:31

@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 · 9 Mar 2020, 08:56

@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 · 9 Mar 2020, 09:06

@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 · 10 Mar 2020, 23:09

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 · 15 Mar 2020, 19:41

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 · 16 Mar 2020, 13:14

@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.

@Rafa have you tried wiping the odm partition before flashing the Loire Nougat odm file?

Rafa · 19 Mar 2020, 10:59

@fredldotme Thank you for your answer.

By "wiping the odm partition," you mean in TWRP?

I just reinstalled Android with Flash-Tool and I installed TWRP with fastboot.

I restarted in Recovery mode. In the Wipe Menu > Advanced Wipe I don't see a partition named odm (neither vendor nor oem by the way).

Here is the picture :

fredldotme · 20 Mar 2020, 10:53

@Rafa you might have to do it the fastboot way, using fastboot erase

Rafa · 22 Mar 2020, 13:33

Here's the result:

$ fastboot erase odm
erasing 'odm'...
