Please don't forget ZL users when doing V3

specially those who have upgraded to .253 and lost their root.

Can u change the blue background to grey because its the same color with the blue text and it hard to see.

Which Kernel to flash at the end? i am not sure sorry.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Phat-T:
You can change the background yourself. Just choose a theme that came with the phone

Hey niaboc79. For the sms chat window, is there any way you can make your avatar on the right side instead of both being align on the left? :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] Mythusme:
I know but I want a grey one, there is none. If I change the theme, All the colors on the phone will change too. I just want to change the color on the app only not the whole phone.

Problems & a suggestion

Reporting on 6602

I had stock rooted with binary on a locked bootloader + CWM recovery for locked bootloader

I installed dual recovery and flashed zip from recovery, at this point i haven't had flashed the kernel i started the phone all went well, then i tried to remove bloatware using titanium, everytime i removed something phone rebooted, recovery stopped working so i installed again now i can see the recovery light going up but it fails to enter and reboots.

I flashed the new kernel for 6302 253

Rebooting still occurs upon every app uninstall from titanium and recovery isn't working.

I will downgrade to 434.

Request:

Your rom is awesome and sexy as hell but could you please create a very light version of your rom? it looks really sexy but that's all i need tbh, no purex audio no overclocking no nothing except black theme on a stock rom, I am not an expert but this is my 3rd Xperia phone and i always unlocked bootloaders and tried different roms and usually overtweaked roms caused issues so if you could just provide the black theme minus everything else extra it would be great :)

---------- Post added at 10:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:04 PM ----------

Try a different theme, the green one works perfectly.
[Xperia Z Android Development] jac.pepper:
It's really good idea. Before XZ I've had galaxy S1,S2 and S3 and I realized that each luscious custom ROM with many additional mods can cause some problems. Your work with GUI is amazing and I'd like to have a choice: full modded or lite with black theme (which can be improved by various mods). I'm waiting for V3 checking this site each morning;)

noob question (my first sony): which kernel I need to flash after overall procedure to maintain root? Few guys asked for it earlier without any response..

Thanks for your work again mate

For UB, I want to know if come from another room .253 UB version, do i need flash back to .434? or flash directly over another room?
[Xperia Z Android Development] lancebuks:
I was originally on 10.1.1.A.1.253 using [NUT]s root method and installed V3 directly with no issues. I did NOT wipe anything in TWRP (not sure if that really matters or not though).
[Xperia Z Android Development] :
just install (1.2.3 OK). do not wipe anything. or at least just dalvik.

hope helped.

I think you mean check kernel and baseband in op. And not uncheck because when you uncheck flashtool will not flash kernel i think. Or i am wrong.

From op: Flash kernel only with flashtool. (Uncheck kernel, fota, data, cache & appslog)

Must be i think: Flash kernel only with flashtool. (check kernel, fota, uncheck data, cache & appslog)

I am having an issue with V2 and V3 with root. I am not sure if I am the only one. Each time I boot the phone it asks me each time to grant superuser access to apps, even though I have the tick box selected to remember this option, I have even deleted all apps and entered them in again and have the same result.

With version 3 my phone advised of OTA updates and PC companion suggested that the phone was not .253 that was until I flashed the baseband and kernel. Assuming - From an other Stock based rom (434 or 253) instructions:

Do not wipe anything!

Install in recovery

If needed do a factory reset

An update, I did a factory reset of V3 .253 ROM, then booted phone, did some checks, rebooted to bootloader and install V3 over top again, now the root is working fine and not prompting constantly. I previously followed the instruction from .434 ROM twice with the same result.

Gonna try that mate. I have this issue everytime I open root explorer and its annoying. Did a clean install over .434 base rooted. I am gonna try a few thing first then try factory rest and reflash the rom.

V2 no recovery, V3 has recovery & root even retains after factory reset.

Easiest option, flashtool flash .434 over again making sure you do not wipe anything in the top right box. Root, then add recovery. Then install V3, should work fine.
