I can not get contact to a moderator, if anyone could move this thread to Xperia Z2/Android Development, this would be nice!

Actually, the pure AOSP builds have root rights, they only work via terminal emulator or adb shell. I managed to get Gapps and SuperSU working on my build by temporarily flashing CM12.1 boot.img to get to the recovery and flashing them. But it isn't exactly usable, as the Google config screen is constantly getting FC'd. Well, that's Sony for you .

Yeah you could try that too here, do you use Marshmallow as a daily driver?

Nope, I'd probably do but there are two major problems - the Gapps FC's and the delayed lockscreen. And I had to compile it TWICE, making the mistake of typing the NUMBER in and not the NAME, I've been compiling the generic version for almost 8 hours. So yeah, I'm waiting for Sony's Marshmallow or CM13.

Why is this marked as stable? AFAIK camera and other things aren't working at all?

As I said, I did not test it. Please test and report, I will change it if it's not correct.

It must be Testing because kernel 3.10 is warned highly experimental on fxpblog (fxp is a part of Sony Developer Program)

 

[RaKesh]

[kfcsiko]

Okay, so here is my Impression with this ROM after a first use:
- SIM does not work for me (no mobileconnection in general)
- Wifi does work
- SD card does not work
- Camera was not tested -> could not download an app due to playstore missing and SD not working properly

Any progress?
