[REMOVED]

Who can recommend the best alternative to this?

I have tried that, thanks. Interesting that my home network should be the cause. I have never had similar issues, and I run servers, remote desktop software etc. etc. etc. without issue. But I'll delve into it some more.

Howdy, I can't for the love of me get my tablet connected to my PC with this. It doesn't find anything, and it doesn't recognize the IP directly. Firewall is configued and I'm on my home network. GFX XP is logged in and all is well, or so it seems. How do I resolve this? It's a Sony Xperia Z3...

Nah, thanks. I don't need the DRM - didn't have protected files. I would, however, like to restore the software functionality. I'll take a look at this later. Before that, though. I do have root, but I noticed that the bootloader is gone. I'm on rooted stock. Can I install the dualboot without...

I actually have no idea what happened. To me, it looked succesful (though, I might have misinterpreted it, because of my lack of experience with this particular device). I did not have an SD card in my device at the time of flashing. That tutorial would restore the functions I most desire, but...

Well, that does explain! It's 12:30 AM here, so I need to get some rest, but I'll continue my little project tomorrow and report back on the results. Thanks! Edit1: Cannot resist, tried again and failed at the same spot. EDIT2: Scratch the previous edit, I'm in TWRP. :) EDIT3: Now stuck at...

Yes, I have full access to the device. Well, except root, ofcourse. :)

Thanks for all the hard work! I've been working on this process for the past hours. I'm currently stuck at step 28: 28. Install NUTs dualrecovery (TabZ3C-lockeddualrecovery2.8.1-RELEASE.installer.zip) from this thread1. When I try to install this, the installer for dualrecovery gets stuck...

Problem solved - I needed to update to the advanced kernel first.

Oh, I missed that one, thanks!

:eek: Root with the bootloader intact, that is amazing! Will this also work on the WiFi 4G version? That's the one I have and I don't want to mess it up.

Exchange process was horrible, more than two months. They repaired it, and it works. I've already gotten a new unit in the meantime though.

Hi everyone. I've been absent for two months, while my device was being repaired after water damage. It took too long, so I got a new phone (yay!). Now I'm looking back into the possibilities of getting more freedom. Now, I've been trying to read up on latest developments, but I can't get a...

It's dead. A night in the rice did nothing. Whenever I try to start it, it vibrates 3x, flashes the sony logo and turns off again. When I put it in the charging cradle, it loops this action. I'm contacting the supplier to get it exchanged. For the people above here, I did not expose it to...

Planned to (and should have) gone to bed, but didn't yet (really will after this post!) The water jets should be no problem. Read more about IP ratings on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_Code In short: Immersion requires a way higher rating than high pressure water jets (and a shower...

Thanks for your reply and sympathy. I have used a magnetic charger from day 1. Funny enough, to prevent exactly this problem. The only times the slot has been open, was during installation of the microsd and initial installation and data transfer. From there on out, it's been closed for a week...

Howdy. My Z3C has gotten wet quite a few times already, without trouble, I've had it for a few weeks now. Today, I decided to test it in the shower with some music (BT speakers) and browsing some sites. Naturally, beforehand, I checked the sealing on the waterproof slots, they were closed...

Thanks for all the comments. It's interesting to see the different available methods for this device. I've had my share of experience with android and ROM's, but never so many different things to take into account. I guess it just got more complicated since recoveries are now often included in...

Ok, I'll try that tedious approach then, thanks! EDIT: I tried that and still a bootloop. Sony logo, 2x vibrate and reboot. What am I missing?

Ah, so I understand that I need to flash FROM a stock ROM to this one, instead of from a full wipe? That's not what I took from the first post.

Hi, Thank you for this ROM! I've installed it according to all the instructions provided. Unfortunately it goes into a bootloop after installation. I've tried again, to no avail. I've got an unlocked z1C and I've managed to install other custom ROMs. The only thing I can think of is the *...

Thanks, I'll research the possibility of extracting the functionality from the stock ROM, but I'm afraid this is impossible because it uses an alternative BT driver to support the Dualshock controller. Perhaps the question is better asked at the AOSP developers. Do you perchance know where I...

This looks like an awesome ROM, going to try it tonight when I get home from work! In the meantime I do have a question. I love the native dualshock controller support that sony embeds in their ROMs. Is this included in this ROM? If not, can it be installed/added? I use my phone to play some...

The only problem I have is that my Bluetooth keyboard won't connect while using this ROM. It's fine on Cyanogenmod. Can you switch to their BT driver, or can I change that myself somehow? Otherwise a fine ROM, thanks!

Hi there, I would love to see more development on this. Can you let us know what the status is? Thanks!

You sir, are absolutely right. I'm not sure what threw me off, but I am mistaken. Thanks for pointing that out. I think I need to learn which apps I can safely remove myself. I'd like to create a ROM, but I wouldn't know where to start.

Thanks for the development. Weirdly, this thing doesn't install for me. It goes into Odin mode when I try to boot system after flashing it. I thought it might have been a bad flash, but after a retry I get the same result. Any ideas?

Unfortunately the 8.4 version is indeed broken, can't complete installation. Aroma also doesn't offer a selection of kernels. I hope you will update this sometime. Thanks.

Unfortunately this is not the ROM for me, constant reboots, not able to connect bt keyboard and 25% decreased performance. So many xposed modules installed that I can't diagnose the problem. Unfortunately I'll have to try another. Keep up the development work though, it's much appreciated...

My advice: Contact the seller and have it exchanged. I think it's a hardware problem.

Then my device is broken. I tested a few shots next to a Galaxy Note 3, and it made much (MUCH) better pictures than my Z1. Tried all kinds of settings, no way to make it right. So mine must be ****. I'm getting it exchanged because of a lazy pixel anyway, but I'm really disappointed in Sony...

Those do look better. Do I understand correctly that I should take a course in photography and buy a an app to get decent pictures out of this thing? I've heard about FV-5 before. Is it that much better than the stock camera app?

This is with bad lighting (Sun was shining at the cam), a view from my window. Is this the quality I should expect from this phonecam? Inside, it's never sharp. There simply seems to be too little light to make sharp pictures. The flash does nearly nothing. The low ISO setting makes it lag very...

Thank you for your reply. I'm currently on the newest firmware. I'm running RomAur v3.2. I had the same problem on a different modified stock ROM of the latest firmware build.

Howdy! I've got this phone for 3 days now. One of the main reasons to choose this one, is the camera. It should give stunning pictures, right? Wrong. I can't for the love of me get even one good picture. Each and every one is either out of focus, distorted in some way, or it looks like there's...

Aye, I'll give it a bit of time. So far though, I'm not very impressed with the Z1 in some regards. My brother brought his HTC One to me to compare. The HTC one has a better screen (colors are far better and black is actually black), the sound is much better (as known, since it has stereo...

Installed this ROM, so far the benchmarks are actually lower than stock, but I'll test some more. :)

Dang, that sure is a waste. Lets hope Sony does indeed fix the bootloader unlock sometime soon. I do really wish to be able to get a custom Kernel and OC this baby. :x Otherwise I might yet consider switching to a HTC device.. :(

Thank you for the explanations, you too Spartan. Has anyone tested whether another camera application like google's Photosphere does work with an unlocked bootloader? I'm sorry for asking "known" questions, but as always, there's a lot of threads with matter on the subject and it's difficult...

I read about flashing a stock kernel before relocking the bootloader. My intention is not to relock the bootloader. I wish to unlock it, restore the TA and have a working camera. From what I gather, this is currently not possible. I would like definitive confirmation. On a sidenote, can I...

Howdy! I received this device today. I now have it rooted and updated to the newest firmware, so far so good. I have a question though: I want to install custom ROM's. I have already backed up my TA partition. When I unlock the device and restore the TA, is the unlock gone? I keep reading about...

Thanks! I just read about 31 on the frontpage and figured I might try modify the URL from 30 to 31, which worked! So I actually answered my question a few minutes after asking; thanks to an epiphany. ;) Thanks again for helping though. :)

Hey mike, awesome job here! I just tried to download version 30, but the site sais that there are no working mirrors found! Did you just change something? Could you update a working link to the frontpage please? Thanks!

Sweet! Good job man! :D Now my only remaining request is tablet support. Do you think that might happen in the (near) future?

Question! I'm using a padfone, a phone that goes into a tablet, which goes into a keyboard dock. Now when I have the device docked, whenever I type on the keyboard, it also starts predicting stuff. Very annoying. I can type super fast perfectly fine, without this app correcting everything I do...

I'd love to see tablet support! And make it dynamic, (check whether it's a phone or tablet, and have settings for both) since some devices can turn a phone into a tablet. :) You already made one of the requests I had. See my earlier post, as well...

First of all, I adore this application, it's definitely something I always wanted on android. Your implementation is the best I've found so far. Kudo's! Now, I do have some questions/issues. 1. Another app I saw was able to enable/disable the default action bar on the fly. This app seems to...

Last attempt...
