Bro... thanks!
I've uploaded Vivo BR to gdrive too, so if you want an alternative link for it, get it from here

Edit:
For those who want generic boot animation (instead of carrier one), replace /system/media/bootanimation.zip by the attached one (generic Xperia KK boot animation - thanks @scifan) with rw-r--r-- permissions! And to remove carrier shutdown animation, delete /system/vendor/overlay/com.sonyericsson.shutdownanim-res.apk file.

 

[Edwrib]

Tks!

Why you added kernel only link, need to flash they after or before flash the ROM?

And to root, know if bin4ry tool kit is working or any other way to root without unlock bootloader?

How to access with rw-r if we don't have "root access"?

How to access with rw-r if we don't have "root access"?

If you have unlocked bootloader:
- Download lastest SuperSU to sdcard
- flash (fastboot) any old kernel with built-in recovery (I have used this one)
- boot into recovery
- flash SuperSU .zip file
- Power off device (do not reboot)
- Flash (flashtool) only kernel from ftf again
- Reboot
- Enjoy root!

Does these firmwares contain a lot of carrier bloatware?

FTF from Oi BR carrier have less bloatware and all can be removed ...

*****************************

What recovery can I use with 10.5.A.0.230 ?

 

[MichelBFR]

Thanks!

But I think I messed up with my ZQ. I was at 4.2.2 (Claro BR) , then I upgraded to 4.3 (no carrier). Last week I bought a 4G (LTE) chip, but even when I'm on an area with 4G signal, I can't use it. Do you think it can be related with the fact that I forced another ROM from another carrier via flashtool?!

 

[rafael747]

I has on 4.2 from claro and upgraded to generic 4.3, Just like you, no problem using 4g (LTE).

I experienced radio issues when flashing PAC 4.3 rom.. LTE on claro wasn't working. Then, i flashed 4.3 stock rom and it did worked. Although, i flashed both roms with with Flashtool. I never used Sony's regular update software with my ZQ.

You can try accessing Phone Information menu via *#*#4636#*#* and checking if Radio Band is set to automatic (default and maybe the only option available).

4G on .230 works flawlessly.

Alguem sabe do que eu preciso fazer p/ rootear o xperia zq com kitkat?

Alguem sabe do que eu preciso fazer p/ rootear o xperia zq com kitkat?

Então o primeiro passo é desbloquear o bootloader seguindo o método oficial sony, depois flashear um kernel que tenha recovery (se você já está na kitkat use o kernel desse tópico http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2762551 ). Dai é só entrar na recovery e flashear o SuperSU (que você já tem que ter colocado no sdcard).

Dude, i have just installed "Commercial and Journalists: C6503 (Google Drive)" at the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2759640 for my wife.. it's kikat 4.4.2 and unbranded.. but it has lag problems too, just like another roms... i think that the best option is keep on 4.3 JB, because it seems to be fast and battery friendly.

You need root access to do this.
