as usual, no promises when that will happen, but we are working on aosp7 (sledges, 09:27:41)
I just hope that:
  • they will get to this in a near enough future (big hope: by end February 2018 ?).
  • they'll manage this with the *current* Sony Loire Kernel (4.4), not the one that was previously used on Android 7.0.2 (Kernel 3.10.106).
  • eventually, they'll compile their own binary from the Sony source's GIT (with all the usual bell and whistles featured on other devices turned on : modules, BTRFS, etc.)

One can hope...
