1> What is ROM? Everybody talking about changing Rom, Stock Rom, this Rom, that Rom.. what is the meaning of ROM for android? Flashing Rom and Flashing Firmware is the same thing??
2> What is BASEBAND??
3> What is Generic Number?? Build number?? i've change flash my build number from 2.1.A.435 to 3.0.1.G.0.75 and my baseband version,kernel and Android version change along with it.

1. A ROM is the firmware, or Operating Sytem, of your phone. It's a package that contains the OS, drivers, programs and other odds and clods that make your phone work!
2. A baseband is a special package (kind of like a ROM) that controls the radios in your phone (cellular radio [phone part], bluetooth, WiFi etc.)
3. A build number is the version of the Operating System you are installing. Every manufacturer uses different naming systems for their builds, but usually the higher the letters/numbers, the newer the build. A new build will often contain a new baseband, and a new kernel. If you're lucky, you can sometimes even get a new OS version (as you did)!
Hope this helps!

pudding no root?
ok guys/girls I have been looking on here for a week and a half now but I flashed pudding and im unlocked as well but no root access obviously something i am not doing right. I thought pudding would give root but maybe not? I also have tried booting in recov. but then I can't find anything in there that says root or whatever.
I have the superuser app. dosent work as well as tita. says not rooted? It also says that a newer version is released and that it was put on my sd card but can't find it?
Any help is welcome or just point me to the right thread.
No dummie responses as they are a waste of your intellectual ability when you could have just used that energy to respond with help.

[Q] Flashing rom 4.2.2 with radio FM [bootloader unlocked]

As the title says I would like flash a rom 4.2.2 if possible stock UI, for bootloader unlocked.
All this is to recover the function of FM radio.
If anyone has any idea how to do this, I would greatly appreciate you provide details or links on how to do.
Stay tuned and I appreciate any information.

The custom roms based on JB 4.2.2 support FM Radio. You can download and install them. And if you want stock rom then flash the latest ftf using flashtool.
You can find the instructions for installing on the rom thread itself, just look for the rom in the development section.
Hit thanks if it helped

I alredy got back to my stock .31 JB and flashed custom kernel and I use it,but I want some custom OS but when I flash them they're full of bugs,can't even run them propperly.Phone crashes,Settings,everything just crashes.Also when I flash CWM (I found it on xda topic and downloaded it) and when I scroll it's full of bugs,screen shuts down,just bugs everywhere.

Yeah, i tried few roms, i liked CM but I'm on stock .31 now, clean it from apps that i don't needed, themed it a little, it's working good, im satisfied.
About CWM, i flash CM kernel, go in CWM, do what I have to do, flash stock kernel.

Try flashing stock kernel first, the cwm i use from CM kernel when finished i flash stock kernel in order to boot. If you don't have stock kernel, in Flashtool just leave the kernel in ftf unchecked.
Good Luck.

Yes we need a developer. Who can help us.

Hay there
What kind of help do you need?
You would better ask help from developers privately before posting such thing
Read forum rules carefully and beware that such threads maybe closed by Mods
I have a d2302 too i can help you with my little experience :fingers-crossed:

We forgot the forum rules. We need to get permission from the developers of the rum to be able to arrange the rum. I am Turkish English not good so I apologize

I suggest you try the Z5 STYLE Rom by linuxct
The most stable and smooth rom here
Alot of features and super battery friendly
But it seems that you like pure android roms so you may try CM13 Rom by kj77
Those are the best and stable roms for our device
All i want to say is there is no need for RR Roms
We have quite good roms here :fingers-crossed:

I tried the Z5 STYLE, CM13, CM14 and Omni Rom 7.0-7.1. I'm using a Lineage OS ROM that I've seen in another place. I wanted to switch to the Z5 STYLE from the CM14 rom. But after loading, the rom animated remains and I can not find the reason why the Rom does not open. I am very happy if you help in this matter. Also the RR rom looks very nice The CM14 rom system ui file can be very nice when compared to the GOOGLE PIXEL device. I am very happy to help you with the Z5 STYLE rum. Thank you. I apologize for any mistakes I made from Google.

You cannot dirty flash Z5 STYLE on any CM or Based CM ROM
Because Z5 Style is based on stock, generally its an (Optistock) Rom
To install Z5 rom you must start from scratch
1 Flash stock rom then upgrade your bootloader
2 root your device and install twrp recovery
3 download and flash Z5 rom
Linuxct explained every thing just search for his Z5 STYLE thread and follow the instructions
And happy flashing

So you can load me the stock rom and start the root process again. I understand now that the Eagle Experience Rom has made the same mistake. I do not have a computer. Can I still flash through the stock ROM TWRP?

As far as I know you cant flash Sony stock firmwares without PC
TWRP can flash ZIPs (Custom Roms) only
In the next time dont forget to make a NANDroid backup before making any change
Even smallest things can brick your device

Try to use the Sony Apps enabler by @Zenith, use part of THIS on CM13, And, you can use THIS or THIS Settings, THIS port of Messaging app, and try make a theme like THIS.
Or try with THESE stock apps.
Is a really good idea...
Or, try to talk with the dev that made Carbon Xperia UI from Xperia Z3, that, is a really good "Stock port" on LineageOS (Based in Carbon ROM, reallly).

7.1.2 based stock would be awesome for this device, since we have fully stable 7.1.2 roms
