Just installed. Looks and runs great. The only two thing I've found are NFC not working and video recording... Will stay on CM for a while. :)<br />
P.S. And one morre bug - touch is not properly working. I mean that especially on lockscreen it is impossible sometime to unlock the device. :(<br/>

Hi,

I probably missed something, but exactly where do I get the boot.img from for first time install?

Roy

You don't need it. Just flash the zip in the download link in recovery. There are touchscreen issues after sleep with the build however, so I would nandroid your present config if you would like to revert.

Bootloader/Recovery

So a unlocked bootloader isn't required if I have root and recovery?

If you have root and a recovery installed on the xperia z2 tablet, then you have your bootloader unlocked already.

Root just gives you higher privileges in the running state. To install lets say Clockworkmod recovery, you need write access to the boot partition, which comes only with an unlocked bootloader.

I stand corrected, your tablet can have a locked bootloader with XZDualRecovery and root. Sorry for that...

You can install a custom ROM however make sure you create a backup of /system/bin/chargemon in a location you know it keep secure, then just flash the locked dual recovery beta zip.

I had xzdualrecovery on my xperia z2 tablet with a locked bootloader but it would not stick when I tried backing up or flashing a custom ROM. I went ahead and unlocked the bootloader and installed a CWM recovery in order to avoid loosing a recovery because of bootloader errors/bugs.
