This is a tweaked versions of CARBON-JB-UNOFFICIAL-B11 so all credit goes to killersloth for the ROM. Without his work this ROM wouldn't be possible. So if you like this ROM please go to the CARBON ROM thread and click the "Thanks" button.
Changes Made:
- Replaced Trebuchet launcher with Nova launcher.
- Replaced stock gallery with Sony Z Album and Movie app (Facebook & Twitter integration working.)
- Added Sony Z Walkman app with UPNP/DLNA Media Server.
- Replaced the default kernel with the kernel from CM10.1 Stable by verygreen.
- Added BeatsAudio+xLoud+ClearAudio for audio effects and ViPER4Android for the sound engine. Settings I am using.
- Added Mobile BRAVIA® Engine for improved video processing.
- Modified Adobe Flash 11.1 with Hulu support.
- Host level ad blocking. If you are having issues with adblocking see attachments to remove it.
- Forced all rendering to be done on the GPU. Should help with gaming and make things more smoother. To help improve performance even further see this post.
- GoogleEars.
- Kick Ass Kernelizer
- Auto-zipalign and defragdb on boot
- Auto Calibration on boot. Only does a few programs each boot. So may take a few reboots to calibrate all of them.
- Plus many improvements taken from this thread.
I also added some terminal commands.
Run each command with SU first then the command.
- fixfc - Fix apps force closing.
- sclean - Clean the dalvik cache and cache partition
- v6 - run the V6 SuperCharger script. I would run this as soon as the ROM is setup..
Know bugs
- Not a bug as such but something you should be aware of. It does take a few reboots to optimise all the apps.
- V4A XHiFi may do a hot reboot when first getting root, same with Root Browser. This will only happen once and will work fine afterwards. This is only normally an issue if you try getting ROOT on first boot. On the second reboot this doesn't happen.
- Wifi will turn off then back on while it is setting up wl1271-nvs.bin. Once the file is created Wifi shouldn't disconnect.

If you would like to use the WALKMAN app from the Sony Xperia Z Ultra you can do so by flashing this: Xperia-Ultra_WALKMAN_SemcMusic.zip. Make sure you boot into the ROM before flashing. If you flash this without booting into the ROM first it will not work.
Most of the features in the Sony Xperia Z Ultra WALKMAN are working but "Music Unlimited" service isn't.
