Just take a look at all the MM Roms for LB and see which has feautures you like. Check the comments a bit too to see what others say and then you'll know. Lots have the features you want and are getting regular updates to improve them. It is hard for someone to suggest a ROM as each is different for our needs and wants.
Alternatively you can root stock ROM and then flash the ported versions of the Xperia X apps like the system UI, lockscreen, sound libs and even camera when it is available. Just check they are for the Z3.
There might be a port of the galaxy apps if you search around. Probably in the cross-device development section near the bottom here. You could even try installing them normally and see if they work, but have a backup if you flash anything!

(Req) Xperia Phonebook & Message

* I searched this on XDA and on Google. There are many ports of OTHER APPS but not these two. Also, most 'ports' that I found of Xperia apps in general were for other Xperia phones which will therefore not work on other ROMs*
Has anyone seen these for any ROM? I would prefer the beautiful Jelly Bean version on the Xperia Z but I would happily use any version. I'm using a JB ROM atm.
Many thanks for any help.

I'm a bit interested by this as well. Could you just take the mms.apk from the sony rom and overwright the one in CM? Maybe it needs the framework...(which, if you run the mods that make the phone practically an xperia, would it have enough of the framework i wonder? i havent messed with it yet, probably will this weekend)
Hi buddy.
I have tried installing the Jelly Bean version from different Sony ROMs. None of them worked. I tried normal install and putting them in system/app with various permissions. I'm not even sure which permissions to use for this, but I think I have tried all of them.
There are some Sony apps that you can 'normal install'. I wonder how the devs do that exactly. Maybe they disconnect some dependencies on framework or something.
If you are interested in other Sony apps, there are a bunch of them here until we get Phonebook/SMS:

Anyone? I've searched and searched but no luck yet.

[Q] Stock xperia e JB rom for tipo

Greetings xda,
I was thinking about porting the stock j.b. rom of the xperia e to tipo, because it's a nice rom, with a very nice UI, and also it could be a good upgrade for the xperia tipo, with an "official sony" touch. Since both phones are much alike in specs (they have same amount of ram, almost the same cpu, same screen, same gpu and same camera) I consider that this could be possible. So here's my question: how hard can it be? And also what would I need to make the port on an xperia tipo? Note that I'd like to port the official stock, generic one (rootable, if possible), with no modifications like UI, etc.
Your post is in the wrong section. . I report to modeators to move to Q/A
As will be moved there by the moderator if you answer.
Sure. No problem.
I have found a method of porting a pre-rooted rom's files from a phone to a computer (here's the page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49766028). Could I do something similar to make the port I'm interested in?

[Q] Can we use Sony's new ROMs with Xperia L?

Guys I'm just curious and pardon me if this a stupid question. I'm still a newbie for these things.
I have been using Varun's Free Xperia ROM for a while and as much as I love KitKat I do miss the Xperia features.
So can we do some workaround and use Varun's kernel with a rom of Sony's KitKat update like some building new ROMs? So we dont miss the Xperia features too?

I had the exact same question in my mind. But I thought it would be too stupid to ask.

Varun's kernel is only compatible with AOSP 4.4.
You could use Sony Media Apps which are compatible with 4.4

I did not try custom ROMs on D6633 yet, I'll wait until Sony stops support beyond Marshmallow and then I'll play. Current modified rooted stock ROM's provide enough customizability that unless pure custom ROM offers amazing new features I am not desperate for custom ROM just yet. I use 3rd party launcher and couple of MODs and I am happy for now.
There are few modified stock ROM's you might wanna try, like this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/development/rom-23-4-1-232-t3226948
or this one:

How to port Sony Camera App to Stock based ROM's?

Hello all!
There are a number of custom ROMs here in the forum which feature the Sony stock camera app - The next best thing to the GCAM which does not run well on the XZ Premium. Can anyone shed some light on how it can be done to port the Sony camera app to, for example Carbon ROM?
Is it just a matter of copying the right files into the right locations, or is the whole topic more complex? Information to get me going on this would be much appreciated.:good::good:
Hi,
Maybe following link
https://forum.xda-developers.com/cr...carbomrom-xperia-package-guide-clean-t3816147
could work for you.
As I am on a stock rom I didn't try it myself
