Hello dear ronnz98, I discovered this forum and with it e/OS today and I am greatly suprised that someone still developes for the Sony Xperia X Performance. I got this phone a few years ago from my mom after she didn’t need it anymore and decided to update it to a newer Android version one day and it has been running LOS 19 with android 12 ever since (which is still pretty good compared to stock version 8) but the rom has a few stability issues which seem to have been fixed by you (great job btw! (: ) if I read your previous Threads and posts correctly.
Now the reason as to why I created an Account here isn’t just because I want to praise your work but ask some stuff aswell. First of all, I’ve read that e/OS doesn’t support google services as it’s a microG de-googled system and microG clashes against GApps packages. Is that true? And I’ve also seen that e/OS is based om LOS so is there a lineage rom aswell or would you be able to release one by any chance? I always liked custom roms and such but I’d still like to keep the google services.
I hope you’ll see and answer my stuff soon. Great work, keep it up!
Thanks, I’m mainly a ROM builder with some Android developer skills but I’m not the developer for this device. /e/OS is Lineage based and uses microG, so GApps is not intended to be used for this. With some linux knowledge you can build yourself for Lineage, I have some nice how-to’s available for building ROMs…
Might sound stupid but how can I write ab DM/PM in this forum? I am highly interested in building myself, I’ve always wanted to get into that field a bit
Hi… bought a NOS Sony X Performance a few months back on ebay and decided to use it as a spoofing phone. The phone is an F8132 Dual Sim. So installed e-1.18-t as a starter OS with a view to maybe upgrading to 2.0 if all is well. So far no problems with the dual sim arrangement with both the GG (spoof) SIM and my regular Spusu contract SIM working fine. Don’t have any bench test software so all testing has been by using it this past couple of weeks and so far so good.
Thinking of updating to a later version but notice that although my kernel is 4.4.302, is no mention of perf+. Which update(s) do you recommend for practical daily use? Is the ‘perf+’ even relevant?
