Hi Niaboc79,

Currently I am using 253 stock ROM from NUT, can I just flash v2 from recovery? If yes, do I need to do dalvik and cache wipe? Will I lose root? Thanks.

[Xperia Z Android Development] Andrewtst:
Hi, niaboc79,

Just ask, did you actually use back the old Phone instead new one from .253 and re-mod? I ask this as I notice the smoothness when hiding the num pad at phone is not there in your black edition, it same as previous .434 where not really smooth. In stock .253 this part is smooth.

Also what had you do on status bar NFC icon? You completely remove it? Changing at build.prop no longer working. This NFC icon at status bar is useful as it let you know whether your NFC is on or not.

all these steps is before flashing the ROM or after? I tried to do it after, but since root is lost, you can push files to the system...

Can someone elaborate? thanks.

Edit: ok. I understand now. Flash Rom, while in recovery, flash superuser.zip. Then reboot and follow the remaining steps.

Is it safe to flash 253 kernel and baseband on 434 firmware?
[Xperia Z Android Development] niaboc79:
No problem ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] niaboc79:
Yes same SemcPhone.apk but smoothness is exactly same as stock 253 for me ;)

For NFC icon I will add it, I haven't removed it but the icon is not activated in the DoCoMo staus bar by default.
[Xperia Z Android Development] kgb88:
I notice that the NFC icon is no longer available in this version. Otherwise, NFC is not working anymore on my phone.

I also wonder you use the old files of previous firmware 434 or the new ones of .253 to mod.

The stock rom 253 is smooth but it is quite slow in your rom when I open Phone or Contact or some other apps
[Xperia Z Android Development] Andrewtst:
Smoothness is similar except when you click hide the number pad at phone, if same, I can't notice already.

Hope you can re-mod base on new .253 phone, it at least fixed the smoothness during hiding the num pad.

* thanks for consider add back NFC icon at status bar.

Also please check they is extra Additional system updates at About phone where not working and given FC.
[Xperia Z Android Development] niaboc79:
eXistenZ v2 was only an update with only a few changes.

I will update all themed apps to latest build for V3.

NFC icon will also be added ;)

locked bootloader

firstly i flashed stock 434 and root it.

then installed eXistenZ v2, when clicking "reboot system now" in recovery, it showed "Fix root?".

I clicked yes and my phone is now rooted.

one question:

I found that now the kernel of my xperia z is that of the stock 434

so need I flash the kernel of stock 253?

will I lose root by flashing it?

thank you!
[Xperia Z Android Development] joibins:

Bugs!

1. Google Account is unable to sync Stock Browser, maybe you need ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter.apk http://www.mediafire.com/?9n7ia9oebqep9b6

2. A translation error:"Increase hour" is actually something like 'search in the page'.

Stock Browser (maybe there's no translation error in this version of stock browser)- http://www.mediafire.com/?kp4fzz3wagbr05z

3.locked bootloader

firstly i flashed stock 434 and root it.

then installed eXistenZ v2, when clicking "reboot system now" in recovery, it showed "Fix root?".

I clicked yes.

But when I installed SuperSU and run it, it showed "Installing su binary", then suddenly the phone rebooted.

And after reboot, SuperSU worked but Superuser FC, then I removed superuser.

Maybe my phone is not full rooted.

Might I also strongly suggest taking out lockscreen rotation all together? It's sort of useless and makes it seem very jittery and laggy.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Andrewtst:
I also wait for v3.

For your information, they is bugs at new DoCoMo v7 beside the NFC not at status bar. They is wrong icon pop-up when GPS searching at status bar. It show download icon instead of GPS.

you will have to head to the themes and apps section and see if there is any for this firmware, .253. If not, you can't. You will either lose your systemUI or get into bootloop.

Hi all. I am getting this problem which is not present in .434 or .350. This is not specific to this ROM as I get this in other ROMs too.

The wifi connection is always dropped when the screen blanks out after a while. Anyone experience this?
[Xperia Z Android Development] kgb88:
I export 18 toggles mod from the latest Aura rom and made this zip file so you can flash it in CWM or TWRP
[Xperia Z Android Development] Vennesch:
Is it possible to do the same with the circle battery?
[Xperia Z Android Development] kgb88:
If you have the rom with circle battery and a zip file of that battery mod, I can make it as I need to know what file they modded

Only a zipfile for the mod, in the mods section of Aura's rom but it is meant for the old 434 roms. the battery icon is the only thing that is not perfect in my phone:P. Thanks again

Can anyone confirm this will work completely fine:

On rooted .434 flash V3 (.253 based)

Flash DoomKernel v7 (for 253)

or, has the OP not been updated yet and I should first: flash .253 FTF, root+recovery, then V3, then DKv7?

I would like root and recovery working. Thanks
[Xperia Z Android Development] niaboc79:
I am already on v3, I have removed pureXaudio and no more battery drain :D

this is important ? i must flash kernel from official sony 253 ? like this:

[Xperia Z Android Development] SaGaR_:
Okay! I'll be waiting for V3 then, but I see people saying that their root is lost in 253. Will we see a fix for this also without flashing kernel or is it a obliged step?

[Xperia Z Android Development] timchew:
No choice. Only have to start fresh. Flash .434, root, install recovery, add the file into v2. Put new zip into sd card. Flash zip, and follow the steps. Remember to flash .253 ftf after that to include only kernel, baseband and fota, don't wipe anything.
