Question regarding the modification of the Sony Xperia Z - General Questions and Answers

Greetings to everyone, I'm new here :laugh:
I'm here with a question regarding the modification of the Sony Xperia Z which I have googled, alas, to no avail.
Okay, here goes;
I recently rooted my phone, installed CWM and flashed DoomKernel for my Xperia Z..
However, I've recently read online that Roms and Kernels are two different things, and hence I'm wondering if it's possible to flash BOTH DoomKernel and another custom Rom (and get them working together?)
For e.g. DoomKernel and CyanogenMod, or FukLag Rom..
Any replies or help would be appreciated, thanks!

At the moment I'm running GingerDX on my X8 and I love it. I've been following X8 development for quite a while now and must say I'm very happy with doixanh's work so far.

[Q] Custom Roms for ST21a2 with working dual sim

Hi,
I tried to answer my question myself by searching the forum but i'm kind of getting confusing answers.
I have the Xperia Tipo Dual ST21a2 and I'm looking for a custom ROM. I'm looking for a ROM which supports the dual sim feature whith GSM,etc support on both simcards and calling, etc. like the original firmware.
I was looking for ROMs and I found a couple like Gimlo 2.0 which works fine for the Tipo but there are confusing answers about the full compatibility to the tipo dual. Some say it doesn't work the same on Tipo Dual because it's different to Tipo. Some say it works, but no further explanation. I get that the Roms would work but not with the full features.
Can somebody please tell me which Roms work perfectly with the ST21a2 with all the built in features.
Are there any steps I have to be carefull about during installation because it is a tipo dual and not tipo?
Is there somewhere a thread or a list which describes what things wont work on tipo dual, what works and what's needed if using tipo dual.
Thank you and I hope I'm not making a redundant thread, but I always find a lot for Tipo and not really exact explanation if it also works for dual.
Cheers,

I installed Gimlo Firrmware and ROM. I reinstalled it many many times to get the best configuration. Now I installed all my apps and have my data etc. back.
The only thing that doesn't work is the Notification LED. I read it is because I need to flash 4.22 with flashtool. Because everything would be gone would it be possible to restore my current running system from a nandroid backup with cwm and the LEDs would work? Or do I have to install Gimlo firmware and ROM fresh after flashing to 4.22?
if your leds worked earlier, then you can restore that particular backup and everything will be like earlier.

XZ DRM fix?

Hey Guys,
I have succesfully rooted my XZ and flashed a custom rom which I really like!
Now I was wondering if it is possible to restore some drm features whilst still having your xperia rooted on a custom (stock based) rom.
Please help me I really want the image quality I used to have before back, but I wouldn't like to remove my new awesome battery life.
Thank you in advance!
Cheers,
