[Announcement] Community Sony Xperia X Compact release

**Ahoy!

Caveat lector!

I'm happy to announce the first _community_ build of SailfishOS 2.1.3 built upon _community infrastructure_ for the Sony Xperia X Compact (f5321/kugo).

Many, _many_ thanks to the porting community, sailors, private testers, the Sony Open Devices team but most of all to Manizuca upon whose device adaptation work this is based.

Requirements:

  • Sony Xperia X Compact (f5321) upgraded to the latest Android 6 or 7 _before unlocking the bootloader_. This is a critical step. Attempting to flash without upgraded firmware may brick your device
  • Download and unzip the archive here, and follow the instructions therein. They are the same as per the Xperia X Community build

What works: * everything that works in the community port of the Xperia X

What isn't working: * everything that doesn't work on the community port of the Xperia X * OTA updates. If you flash this image to your device you will need to manually upgrade via the command line, and currently even that may not work. Although feature complete, this is a work-in-progress.
