Thanks.
I'm currently using the file explorer that is in the recovery but that really is no permanent solution as I need to reboot each time I have to work in /system and no other app can be used.
If there is no safety risk I will proceed disabling RIC then.

Anyone know if D6503 will work in Jamaica? I'm travelling to Jamaica in April and am debating between buying a travel pack through Fido or just buying a prepaid Sim card in Jamaica and throwing it in the phone. Any information is appreciated. Thanks

Hi guys,

I recently bought the Z2 and have some questions related with root and unlocked bootloader etc.

I previously had Xperia SL, so I have something or an idea about something
:p

Just wanted to know few things.

1) what happens if I root or unlock bootloader? Is there any feature loss.

2) can I lock the bootloader again once unlocked?

3) can I downgrade my os version. I am on 4.4.2 now.
I know lollipop is coming but I will love to use the existing Roms even after upgrade.

Thanks
