Xperia Google Play 4.3 ROM - Need 3 Testers and a few helpers

[DesertHawk]

Hi,

So yeah a new Android Developer on the block . Im looking to port Sense 5 from the HTC Droid DNA and Optimus UI from the Optimus G. But for now im just trying a start up project just to get the hang of things... So yeah I ported 4.3 from the HTC One & Galaxy S4. But I also used CyanogenMod 10.1.0 tweaks because I find AOSP with no tweaks unbelievably BORING.

I just need a few testers as Im happy leaving my Xperia Z on stock 4.1.2 at the minute, (Hey! I just got it ok). So I dont know how we flash ROMS on the XZ. Do we flash boot.img's like the HTCs? (You can guess im an ex HTC user).

I need 3 people just to PM me for the link of the ROM. JUST THREE! So when I close this thread that means I have my three so PLEASE DO NOT ASK! Just wait for release.

I need the test users just to try 2 versions. 1 CM embedded and one without CM. I doubt the CyanogenMod one will work buuuuuut its worth a shot.

I need someone who has 1-2hrs free and willing to flash a few ROMS that may/may not delete all data. Tester must also provide gmail ID for Hangouts

Thanks all.

Well do you want to help?

I'd just like to say that flashing a new .ftf on an Xperia Z is as simple as downloading the firmware, downloading a piece of software called "flashtool", placing the firm ware in the firmware folder in flashtool, and running flashtool.


Here's the guide for flashing a new firmware.

Here's a generic Spanish 4.2.2 .ftf, the one I used, if you want it.

Not the wrong thread just saying how you flash it on Xperia as you said you didn't know. It would be the same process with your port of 4.3, right?

No that was talking about flashing a custom ROM. Like do I flash boot.img.

To install it its an flash able update and boot.img... That's all

Thanks

Main thing to know about XZ is it has no recovery partition, the workaround is to put that in the boot partition, so to install CWM we do flash boot.img, but it isn't locked after boot like most HTC devices has been. You do need to unlock the bootloader through Sony if you wanna run unsigned kernels though.

Oh, and XZ uses fastboot for flashing if you don't have a recovery installed.

I just got a C6603 as well, so, if there are any free slots, I'd be glad to be of help.

LOL. People that can't be bothered to read the whole OP and see that you asked for Gmail IDs should be automatically excluded from testing anything.
If they can't do that, how likely is it that they will test anything properly?
Just FYI, this is not me putting myself forward to test. My bootloader is staying locked for now.
