Xperia 1V and Xperia 5V are now included in the Sony Open Devices Program

Exciting news for the Open Source Community! We are thrilled to announce the expansion of the Open Devices program, now welcoming two new additions to the family – Xperia 1V and Xperia 5V. This significant step empowers developers to craft and install personalized Android versions on these cutting-edge devices.

The Open Devices program is our way to provide access and tools to build and test your custom software on a range of Sony devices. All the necessary resources for your development journey can be accessed through our Open Devices page hosted on Developer World. We value our open-source community, and we extend an invitation for active participation in our projects on GitHub. Your feedback is invaluable to us, so please feel free to share your thoughts on additional resources and suggestions for program enhancements.

Our build guides provide detailed instructions for those eager to build AOSP for Xperia 1V and 5V. However, it's important to note that this software is primarily intended for developers and may be unstable due to its early stages.

Note: Both devices are in their early stage of development and there are still multiple functions that need to be implemented.
