Really? Do you think a rom for a different device with a newer, more powerful SoC will work on the Z?
Come on, think lol

First of all, congratulations on your new toy. I hope it'll serve you well
Could you share with us your first impressions of the device? Most are probably curious about the screen and camera, in few days you could even expect questions about battery life

Congratulations.for the beast u got..wanted to ask a question that does the x-reality works in videos??

It still haven't the X-Reality Engine on the C6802 yet, just using MBE2.
Because Sony want to make an update to add the X-Reality Engine and multi-small apps function when the 4G LTE version on sale at mid-September.

Is it possible some one could extract all the apk's from the apps folder and upload them somewhere.
Edit: not needed now as just seen the other thread with the apps.

Seen it everywhere (fortress, broadway etc) in Time Square last week end, I'm pretty sure it was available to buy but I didn't want to be tempted so I didn't bother look further.

BEATS audio

Hi, i would like to share an application that will improve overall loudspeaker sound quality and maximum volume.
If you are not satisfied with sound performance of your device you should try this one to get maximum hearing experience!
First of all, BACKUP your current ROM and data with CWM/Titanium Backup!!!
Uninstalling the app will CAUSE BOOTLOOP and you have to reflash system!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!

No CWM needed, just install the apk file
If you already know what you're going to do next step are:
1. Make sure you're rooted
2.Download the Application here: https://mega.co.nz/#!ssQRWBAD!aP5tZAijzE_y66X-NdgIzT9pLL4FbRLfu7hlaE8WBFc
2. Install the application to your device
3. Open it up, accept superuser access, then hit install!
4. Follow onscreen instructions and your device will be rebooted
5. ENJOY new whole hearing experience!

There are other sound mods that are better. Try acid audio it's good there is also One in the xperia z forums that is awesome have it on my XTZ and my ZL can't remember the name of the xperia z one but it's made for the xperia system

thanks for your input but it seems that the newest firmware (4.2.2) hasn't got recovery yet then we can't flash anything through cwm since we haven't got it. In the other hand, I posted an application that can be installed freely (only need root) compared to CWM.
We haven't got CWM for latest firmware right?

The only difference I think is the customization language, when you first start the phone it will come in russian/french, depending on the country of the rom... If i don't see the Customized_ES in XperiFirm until tonight, i'll flash this french version

Download link D2303_18.3.C.0.37_French Generic.ftf

Guys, I've got some questions about that ROM.
1. Could you guys post some simple instructions on how to flash this ROM onto my M2? I'm still kind of a noob when it comes to the Android world.
2. Will everything work normally if I'd like to use this ROM on my M2 in a Polish network and would like to use Polish language? Since both FR and PL are European countries I guess there should be no problem, but it never hurts to ask.
Thanks in advance.

There should be no problem, since I am using the same software...so far, everything works as it should. This firmware creation process is quite straight forward, anyone could do it..anyway, here is a list of available firmwares...so if there is anyone you want to have, let me know, I'll put it together

And, if possible, can somebody tell me the download speed from my Google Drive and Mega link? Would be quite happy to have that information

Sony TV Launcher anytime without TV

As the title said, I've tested it on my Z1 and it's working without any issues.
This is not the actual app itself, It's only an ENABLER to make it work anytime without TV. It will only work on the devices which has TVLauncher already in the system.
It may work for other devices, test it and report.
File in the attachments, Enjoy.
UPDATE : For people who didn't work for them, just flash the fix in the attachments through CWM. The app is working fine now.
UPDATE.2.FIXED : Here is a Z3 black version for the black lovers, Thanks to @Thechiller86.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/1vweyvl3czi3o0n/TvLauncherBlack.Z3FrameworkFIX.zip?dl=0
That's it. Hope it works for all of you.

you need to have stock without apps disabled or debloated for it to work.

if you took a programming course, then you might be able to understand the errors in logcat, and by decompiling the relevent apks, maybe try to fix them? but for this "fixing" part, some knowledge about java (i think thats the language apks are decompiled in) is needed
I think this is how it works.
But its ok
Just chill if its working for you :laugh:

Good News: You Can Root Your xperia M2 With KingRoot[Lollipop]!

Now you can Root your Xperia m2 with lollipop firmware using Kingroot
download the latest version from thier site....
it also works for Xperia T2 ,Z1,Z2 ,etc[Lollipop]...

Somehow I have a feeling that it's basicly this. Lookout discovered this a day ago and now we have a rooting method already. This is suspicious

Thankfully, it is not. I already did some research around that in a spanish blog, and the exploits used to take advantage of the vulnerabilities are: Memexploit, Framaroot and ExynosAbuse. If you look at the scripts closely, you do realize they have something in common, they are built to exploit Samsung devices, for example, Mem Exploit is made to root devices such as the S2 and S3, while ExynosAbuse is made to root the S3 and note 2 (and even some google nexus 10 if I read correctly, remember it's manufactured by samsung). Also, Framaroot, even tho is a common solution for various devices (see MTK proccessors), it can also root the mentioned Samsung devices, like S2, S3, etc... (And even some qcom.)
In conclusion, nothing to worry about this time, seems (IMO) that the adware campaign is not related with KingRoot.
BTW, I just tried KingRoot, and well... Works. Nothing to complain about.
The Proof: (i did flash entire system before doing anything. before rebooting YOU MUST USE the Ric Disabler tool from the Open Bootloader Root Method)

That's the last thing you should be using to root your phone. Dodgy Chinese closed source software could contain anything. It sends the imei no of every phone it roots to a unknown ip address in China.

Now we have to manage to change KingUser with SuperSU.

Personally I'd sooner do it the long way than use that. But that's just me..

No. It says Network Error.

Rooting asap.
Edit: Works like a charm.

I have read that rooting Sony devices make the camera worse (because it disables the image processing propietary drivers). is this true with kingroot?

RIC disabler is a tool which disables the system write protection.
So if you dont use it you cant write to /system.

That's the last thing you should be using to root your phone. Dodgy Chinese closed source software could contain anything. It sends the imei no of every phone it roots to a unknown ip address in China.

It seems they need to send IMEI numbers to identify the phones so that they can apply the tested working rooting procedure on them. I'm not very happy giving it away either, but I just checked a couple of phone boxes and the IMEI numbers are printed outside, together with the bar codes. So I am not sure those should be considered private information at this point. I would be much more concerned if they sent out the address book.
Still, for being dodgy they managed to root it. That's wizardy. Or there are already some exploits available (I didn't follow much lately)?
