If it's slow after first boot, just give it some time.. It will be faster after some use.
If not, reboot it twice.

First boot might take up to 5 minutes

Can someone confirm if sweep2wake and dt2wake are working?

Reboot more than twice and waited for more than 20 minutes. It just stays on Sony logo forever. :(

I am stuck on Bootloop as well :'( :'( . Screen gets turned on for some time, and then turns off. There is no display at all.
Was using Beanstalk ROM (cm-11 based).
@jeroenqui please help me here.

[Update : I can still get into fastboot mode. Anything that I can do from there?]

You can try to flash stock kernel with flashtool so it boots again

You can download this file:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/t2pds6e00vfu534/aokp_cwm_touch.zip
and flash it in recovery. I pull the kernel and wifi driver files from AOKP rom and compiled this zip for my use in case of anything goes wrong in flashing stuff like kernel.

If you're using other rom (not aokp), you can open up my zip and pull the respective files from the rom.zip you are using and replace those files in my zip.

Or if you dont understand me, you can simply flash back your rom and your phone will be able to boot again.

Thanks for the reply. I flashed the boot.img from the ROM's zip and then got into recovery and with a nandroid restore, so its good right now. However, I am very eager to try this kernel (once it gets fixed), mainly because of the overclocking part.

    I'm going to rebuild the kernel from scratch and will try to include support for the ZR from the beginning.
