@ anagramgenius, your solution forces downgrade to 4.2.2. This does not address the question of rooting 4.4.2.

If your phone is not an AT&T branded phone, you will not get LTE. You must add a munged IMEI with an AT&T factory code or copy the IMEI of an in store phone and add that to your account. Then use your phone as normal. This has nothing to do with CM or AOKP.

[ISSUE][18-04-2014 KK Nightly] Did a dirty flash of 18-04-2014 on top of 06-04-2014. On flashing AOKP 18-04-2014/ODIN and Gaaps, system is unresponsive on boot. Screen does not respond to touch, swipe, or buttons. Battery warms. Had to reset with OFF button in SD/SIM compartment. Reverted to...

Yes, the versions are the same. There is no special OTA version. It's just that SOME updates, are delivered at different times (may come first on PCC or OTA), and some updates are only available by PCC. But the firmware versions and product numbers are always the same after installation. Good luck.

The version is the same no matter if you get from OTA or PCC. Append your product to the appropriate link and you will see what is available for you. Quoted from POST 1

See post # 1.

Solution to Xperia ZL and no LTE Service I solved the issue. First the problem: If you are a new customer bringing an unlocked phone (not AT&T branded), when you register your IMEI, the network will not recognize it as AT&T property and will deny you LTE service. Solution: Finally, after a...

I just SWITCHED to AT&T and get only HSPA/HSPA+. No LTE service at all. Is there something new subscribers need to do? I've only seen existing AT&T subscribers having success with the ZL. Suggestions? Thanks

[SOLVED] [C6506] [CWM 6.0.4.7] Restore - Baseband/IMEI Unknown Kudos for your suggestion. I went from stock --> unloick bootloader --> install boot.img --> install custom ROM zips and Gapps --> restore DATA only using CWM Recovery. On first boot, everything is fine. Baseband, IMEI shows fine...

I think parts of the whole Sony Update Service is borked. I reinstalled the 4.2.2 Firmware version 10.3.1.A.2.67 and PCC gave me an error about trying to reinstall the firmware. I've gotten bored on this and will just forget stock rom for a while.

That's what I wrote. I think that this mistake could explain the difficulty in getting updates from Sony. Just a thought.

PTCRB site has wrong firmware coding See this image. The latest firmware is listed as 14.1 instead of 10.4! Here's the link

I will give it a try. Will report next time I revert to stock.

THAT is a good suggestion Now, have you experienced the problem we are describing here? Have you tried the dirty install method proposed? Curious now. I like the idea of installing data only. Will try. Thx

Sony Xperia ZL C6503 also no LTE PMFJI. I own the C6506 (Sony branded, carrier unlocked) which support a wide range of bands including LTE IV and LTE XVII, both of which are used by AT&T. In addition, I get PCS 1900 which AT&T is rolling out. I get NO LTE service and I was told this is by...
