[ROM][UNOFFICIAL][6.0.1][SGP712] CyanogenMod 13 for the Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet [Alpha]

CyanogenMod 13 for Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet Wifi only (SGP712)


This rom is actually experimental, and for xperia Z4 tablet wifi only (SGP712).
It's not usable for daily usage. Always keep a backup of important files.

WARNING : THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL ROM, DON'T INSTALL THIS ROM IF YOU DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOUR ARE DOING !

Your warranty may be voided ! I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications.

Issues:

- Back camera focus: image is blurred
- Bluetooth keyboard is laggy after waked the tablet (disactivate, then reactivate bluetooth temporary solve the problem)
- Recovery don't work with this kernel (you can use «fastboot boot boot.img» with Androplus kernel to acces TWRP)
- Probably again a lot of issues to discover . . .


How to install

- Unlock your bootloader (you can save your TA partition before)
- Update your firmware to the last Marshmallow version (needed to update the bootloader, kernel will not boot if you use the Lollipop bootloader)
- Install AndroPlus kernel and TWRP
- Make a backup
- Push the rom's zip on the SD card (optionnaly with gapps)
- Wipe System, Data, Cache, Dalvik cache
- Install the rom (and gapps if you want)
- Reboot
- Enjoy, and report bugs :)

Questions

- Please, avoid asking things like: how to flash this rom, what is fastboot, …
There is enough documentation on XDA and others websites. You also probably should not use this rom if you don't know how to recover a bricked device with fastboot.
- I'm not a professional devlopper, I don't receive payement for this, so don't ask for ETA, for make a rom for an other devices, …
- I only have a wifi only Z4 tablet, I could make a LTE version if nobody else make it, but since I don't own this tablet it's not possible for me to debug…
