hai sir iam on ur C6502_10.5.A.0.230 version,i want root access, if suppose i degrade to 10.3.1.A.2.67 for root acesss,can i flash directly 10.5.A.0.230.flashable.zip? or remaing old version also need to flash?
If you do/did a full wipe then you can update in one huge step up from 67.

Flash 67 wiping everything,
install xzdualrecovery,
flash 230 zip,
do a factory reset from recovery,
Turn off,
Flash stripped FTF

Done :)

Try to wipe the cache and settings of 'Xperia Home' in settings -> apps on the 'all' tab...

Maybe gravity box somehow messed up your configuration... perhaps used a home modifier for a high resolution grid? (not 4x5 but 5x6?)
now its gone...i cleared the xperia home data :) thanks dude...

Hi all,

Anyone here with ULB have fast and simple way to update this new KK ?
Flash the FULL (not the one from this topic) FTF exclude wiping DATA (this will work fine).

Download ZL XZDR Kernel 2.7.124, fastboot flash the boot.img inside /tmp inside the ZIP.

Put the zip on your external sdcard and flash it again in recovery.

Done :)

This Kitkat rom works well on my c6502 locked phone but don't really like a few changes brought about in this rom. Now it's only been 2 days that I am using this but I think I'll revert back to 4.3 soon. This rom seems less smooth, though I cannot say laggy, than the previous 101 4.3 rom.:p

Why is this Rom so laggy?
Because the moon is drifting away from the earth?

:silly:



:angel:


It can help to factory reset and start fresh...

On my Z it is buttery smooth... as only the casing is different between the Z and the ZL, it should be that way on the ZL as well... so apps are the only idea I can come up with... did you update them all yet?

Yes, they are up to date. Even typing is laggy right now. So when I factory reset I shouldn't restore the whole app data of user apps with Titanium Backup, right?

I'd be very selective on what to restore yes...
add/restore apps a few at a time. Then give it a few days to test how it performs.


Its normal to take more than 30 minutes on Formatting SYSTEM...?
No, that's actually a bit long... Did it finish ok in the end?

:( I'm having trouble downloading the torrent file for c6502 not any peers. Will take forever. The other option I don't understand how it works :(
