Hey guys,

When I first bought this device, I thought I could make a phone call or use simple USSD to check balance or to top up. I end up disappointed, as I always have to remove sim card and put on other device just to top up my balance.

However, worry no more. I've managed to modify framework-res.apk to support USSD. And now calling is also possible thanks to animer3009. We did it mate!
I'm happy to present this mod.

REQUIREMENT:
- Sony Xperia Tablet Z LTE- isn't it obvious?
- Stock kitkat .230 rooted
- XTZ-Call&USSD Enabler v2.zip
- C6603_230_Generic_CE_Baseband.ftf
- Revert to Stock.zip


INSTALLATION:

1. Back up ur tablet, just in case
2. Put the XTZ-Call&USSD.zip and Revert to Stock.zip file in internal storage
3. Flash C6603_230_Generic_CE_Baseband.ftf through flashtool
4. Simply flash XTZ-Call&USSD Enabler v2.zip through recovery
5. Reboot and enjoy calling through your tablet and use USSD function :D

BUT IF BOOTLOOP :( Proceed to #6
6. Reboot and flash Revert to Stock.zip
7. Reboot and let stock framework to load
8. Reboot and do #4 again

Notice: If you are coming from other than stock rom. You have to let the newly installed stock rom to boot first then restart and follow the instructions!

ALTERNATE WAY: (not my works)
Hi people!
There is other solution to:
1) flash baseband
2) install xposed frimework (will reboot)
3) install and enable in xposed: kitkat sms+tether enabler (reboot)
4) install dialer

It works grate for me...

Your sim has no check balance, sad to say. Here in our country it has a check balance so no need to swap devices.

Hope we can make calls using this tabZ.. Hehe

You're right. Some carriers have put their sim tool app in order to check balance or to top up. But the only LTE enabled carrier here doesn't have that kindof app.

Well, if u are coming from non-stock rom! I meant if u just flash the stock rom then the framework it will stuck in bootloop. U have to let the phone to boot for the first time. Then flash the modified framework.

wait lemme get this straight.. what are the criteria.. I am and have always been on stock rom I never had custom rom and my bootloader is locked (i havent unlocked it and probabaly never will) and its rooted... what more are the criteria?

I tried to flash again but then my sd cad was not mounted and then I had brick.. for almost an hour... now I am back to 4.2 (and rooted just now) i shall flash 4.4.2 and root it lets see and try again if it wont work then either you have to change the instruction or it is not working.

    Updated files for 10.7.A.0.222 firmware (Android 5.1.1)

    Voice enabled framework.
    Stock framework.
    Baseband LP.
    Dialer & Contacts.

    Updated files for 10.6.A.0.454 firmware (Android 5.0.1)

    Voice enabled framework.
    Stock framework.
    Baseband LP.
    Dialer & Contacts.

    I advise to install baseband via flashtool first, then voice enabled framework (reinstall stock in case bootloop, boot system as usual and reinstall voice enabled framework again), and dialer in the end of the process.

    For Dialer & Contacts thanks goes to @Wajk.
