Heyo, wondering if you can add a quick and dirty CIFS kernel module. There are some universal versions floating around online. Signing them is above my skill level. I don't know if the signing process has to be implemented on a device by device level. If that is an impediment, maybe consider...

Here is an opinion: I really hate the way that Android P looks. I also have my qualms with Android O. But I think Pie is going off the deep end a little. I personally love the design of Lollipop, so that's my bias. I love the work that these devs have put into this ROM, but I think simply...

My apologies for the misinformation everyone! 17.1 does indeed work. What I did was uninstall 16.3 via Magisk Manager and then flashed the latest official Zip from Magisk repo. :eek:

Thanks for the rom!!! -- Runnning G8142, w/ Magisk and Xposed System-less. It was kinda finicky from the start. I accidentally dirty-flashed over a factory reset of .270, and that caused a boot loop. Wiped everything, then that got it working. However, the UI was very laggy until I have the...

I would pose this question to anyone that reviews phones. Maybe some minor YouTuber would have the time to tell you. I'm curious about this too.

I have an Xperia Z3v. I manged to install the cifs.ko and the other (forgot it's name) module fairly easily. Having the functionality to mount my server shares directly has made my life extremely convenient not to mention highly automated. Also, apps can access the files directly instead of...

Need more detail mah dewd! Are you on Wifi or Network? Outside US or inside? Private or Public WAN?

I'm not an expert. But what I did was just used titanium backup to uninstall my sys-apps. I always froze the app first to see if it would crash anything (Other than the app's own error message). If it didn't I uninstalled it. I really good resource is to check out a thread describing all the...

Skip the sob story if you don't care. So, I finally got everything situated with my phone in terms of restoring it's original quality. Yay, until i decided to test out the waterproofing on the new adhesive I got. To skip to the point, I did a stoopid and had to order a replacement LCD on Ebay...

If you're not rooted, (also works if you are rooted) the best you've got is Sony's own theme creator. It's still in beta unfortunately, I can't say how well it works. But I'm sure it'll have what you need. You can find it here. If you are rooted, There is a way. Sadly I don't have the...

Sorry, I didn't go deep enough to see it. But if it's like the rest of the phone I'm betting it's sealed up very tight. I don't see a reason why Sony would want to weld it, but it's a good possibility. However, I broke my back screen again (don't put metal headphones with your phone in a tight...

Hey, I'm only getting sound when I turn off the screen. Is that supposed to happen? Nvm, I had to turn off Google now detection. App works great!

I know this is pretty corny. But all hail the devs man!!! We've enjoyed a considerable influx of content lately. I consider myself technically literate, but no where near the amount that the Z3v devs contribute. I see the additude lately, whatever. Anyways!!! Thank you, I know what's its like...

I gave it the good old try and yes, it does work with the 5.1.1 TWRP backup. Woot! (FYI i think Zachpope flew the boat on our device. Eh, who can blame him? I was about to it myself. S7 looks nice but I ain't gonna deal with the annoying crap storm called knox.)

Sorry to be nooby here, but will your theming effect the default framework for theming? I made my own little special theme with the creator at the Sony site, and also other themes across xda. Hope it doesn't effect anything, if not, oh well. Might as well get used to it.

Pretty Much the Z2 WARNING This post is long I just opened up mine. (Back glass was cracked and audiojack had major problems.) and It is pretty much exactly just like the z2. You'll be able to manage no problem. I shot straight for the Audio jack which is just under the motherboard. You'll...

Battery battery battery!!! I can't voice how much the battery has improved by your modifications. It's incredible. Thanks so much!

Thanks!!! This worked flawlessly. Even has SuperSU. Much appreciated.

Xperia Firm You can get the ftf from a windows program (don't know if it's on any other platform) called: XperiFirm. However it does come preloaded with the program "FlashTool." You'll need that to flash the firmware anyways. There's an icon at the top of the program that'll launch it. Be...

Can you flash back to 4.4 from 5.1.1? I'd love to try this, but I'm kinda unwilling/aprehensious to take the chance with rooting apps. Can you confirm that you can use flashtool to revert back to 4.4? I just know Verizon would block such a thing in an update, they can be jerks. (like the moto...

So, noob question... I'm uncertain that updating the d6708 via OTA will remove root. I'm expecting it to, but it'd be nice to be on par with the current firmware. Is there anyway that root can be saved across OTAs? I've seen it before on other devices, but I have no idea about Sony and Verizon...
