No xreality wont work on a custom ROM, but the old bravia has been ported, don't know if that will work on a custom ROM though. I think the Z1 or Z2 camera app has been ported, again it may or may not work. Not that these may make the ROM unbootable so have an 'out' route
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] DIGITALIZOR:
went back on full stock... custom rom sucks on perfomance... and Paranoi Android made my menu stuck, and the device nearly overheated, but were usable, with an app in background, put it in the cold shower...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] madsponge26:
Benchmarking is just a number and a myth. so dont judge the rom by benchmarking. by the end of the day its up to you. PA Rocks!

4.5 ALPHA1 / 4.43 STABLE

We were kind of busy this past week, but we still found the time to stick to our timeline at PA HQ. Today we’re bringing two releases: PA 4.43 “increase madness” for our 4.4 stable branch and PA 4.5 ALPHA1, which introduces a preview of our recents redesign. Our designers haven’t fully polished the redesign, so expect more awesomeness in the releases to come. Once again this is a preview, so expect issues and inconsistency.

Common Releases Changelog

- ParanoidOTA fixes and cleanup

- Fix daydream duplicates

- Theme Engine upstream patches

- Quicksettings fixes

- Pie will be activated in apps that use immersive mode if pie is enabled via on the spot.

Themers Note

- This patch has been merged https://gerrit.paranoidandroid.co/#/c/4614/, but it uses a static color for now. It will change to a drawable in next build.

4.5 ALPHA1 Additional Diff

- Recents CardStackView Redesign Preview
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] DIGITALIZOR:
I wanted to say that custom roms in general.

Hmm - trying to install either 4.43 or 4.5, getting "This package is for C6802,C6806,C6833,C6843,togari devices; this is a ""." I'm on iBuzman's .108 build, here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2798690 - any ideas? I can always just reflash to stock, but this seems to be an easy one - tried editing build.prop to include ro.build.product with the correct value, but no go so far...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
Flash the boot.IMG from the ROM zip
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] leekslk:
Does anyone know if there are any methods to flash the new radio from the official 4.4.4 rom? I tried using flashtool baseband only flash but it didn't seem to affect anything (though the flash appears to be successful)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] madsponge26:
4.44 STABLE / 4.5 ALPHA 2*

Last Monday we released the first alpha in our new 4.5 series that is all about our recent apps redesign. Today we’re releasing a second preview which greatly improves over last week. The stable 4.4 series is also getting a bump to 4.44 today.

New Recents

4.5 Beta 1 , has anyone tried it yet or should i wait for a stable release??
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] madsponge26:
Still beta phase but you can use it daily driver.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Godaemon:
Thx madsponge26 . Which kernel do u use? I mean, are there any kernel improvements between releases? Is this kernel optimized for ZU??
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] madsponge26:
Stock kernel is the best. Interactive + noop.:D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] sman789:
Great work, I'm using PA with Pimped kernel.

Anyone have a solution to move (movable) apps to the external SD?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] _A.T.Omix_:
SD card fix doesn't work?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] sman789:
I didn't know that existed :D. Installed that but I still don't have the ability to move apps (really just games, large ones eat up the 16gb) to the external SD. I've tried using Rom Toolbox Pro and various other apps2sd apps.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ingi28:
4.6 beta 1 ?..... :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] NoTnERb:
Hey guys I've been out of the loop for quite a while now so I hope you guys don't mind me asking but is the UI customization not present in PA 4+ anymore? If so, is that something of the past and won't be brought back?

Also, is there a way to install the sony account manager in order to use the sony apps on custom roms? I've tried putting them on system/apps and changing permissions but to no success :(

Sorry, I haven't had the time to mess with my phone for over a year now so I've missed a lot :(
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shafiq_riser:
I guess you're talking about Hybrid Engine. The PA team says its implementing it along the way but with the introduction of the Dynamic System Bars, I think the PA team is going a different route by completely redesigning the Hybrid Engine. BTW, the PA team has reworked Paranoid Android from the ground up so it has relatively few features.

Not sure about the Sony apps though, sorry!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] NoTnERb:
Its all good. Thanks for the help man! Appreciate it!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ukjm2k:
Same issue, the gaps between the back, home and recents buttons are far too big... Almost like they are sized for a 10" tablet.

Plus, sorry if this has been posted, but is there a fix for dim auto brightness?

---------- Post added at 09:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:13 PM ----------

And swipe up from bottom Google now is lob-sided.

Any fix for this?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] NoTnERb:
Loving the battery life on this. Running 4.6 beta1.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] leekslk:
Does anyone else have xposed frameworks installed on 4.6 beta 1? I'm having a funky page when I open settings. Everywhere else appears to be fine. (yup I just took this screenshot) I know its frameworks because the problem goes away when it's disabled. Any idea if there is a fix?

Updated to .108 Sony firmware, flashed CM11 kernel and reinstalled PA 4.6 beta 1. Not using xposed frameworks for now.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] builtboosted:
Will this ROM work with the gpe xperia ? I'm new to the phone
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
No

See the GPe Dev section. I think the choices aresomething like: CM, Carbon, Beanstalk (old), Candy, Omni (don't know if kept upto date). Slim and LiquidSmooth have both been dropped I think

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] adx_x:

but several days ago before i flashed 4.6 beta2，i flashed the C6802_14.4.A.0.108_Generic_MY_Evozi.ftf，because of other reason。
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
That baseband unknown issue affect the C6802 and it seems like an explanation hasn't been found yet.

I have the same issue and would be very happy if it can be solved (unknown baseband on CM based ROMs). In my case, I tried several reflashes and different methods without success; there are some kind of "compatibility issue" between the C6802 baseband and those ROMs.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
do you know what ftf you had before 108?

I've seen posts about this before but could never find the underlying issue
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] adx_x:
befor 108 i have no mention，it‘s long time ago。maybe your pa rom with imei lost problem，i have flashed the .290 ftf。

I have a C6802 and am having the same baseband issue on the latest builds. Can I simply completely flash a stock ROM using a FTF? Would that break anything?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
Yes that will work
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Doom Slayer:
I had GPE rom LB version.

where is hybrid properties? i want change to tablet ui.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ch3mn3y:
As i remember there is no hybrid properties in kitkat pa for now. They are waiting for more stable version or something
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pTeronaut:
Which, with the announcement of lollipop, it would seem that hybrid mode won't be coming to PA KitKat. Besides, There is no code for tablet mode (combination bar) in KitKat onwards, so the PA team would have to write it in themselves.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mothmanex:
This might be a silly question, just installed this rom, but is there a way to change the quick settings/power toggles? Have been searching for it, but didn't found how to do it.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bchaney16:
Anyone know if there will be another stable release of this before Lollipop? Or are the betas stable?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] diamantericos:
Google removed it in the kit kat update you need to use an xposed app head ov to that form youl find it.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] :
Paranoid Android will not develop Android Lollipop for the Xperia Z Ultra, according to this post.

There are lots of features I don't see in this rom, that it shows on the video... Not pablet view or tablet, nor extra settings... Am I looking at the wrong place... Latest rom flashed
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Rox598:
Those features were in the previous versions (Jelly Bean) but Google removed the Tablet/Phablet layout completely with KitKat so those features never made it into PA4 and tbh won't ever be back.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] saenz4931:
OK thanks
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] OmarEinea:
Seems like all Z family (including togari obviously) is gonna be supported by the official PA team soon (not legacy)

The main difference would be that nothing from CM is included, all based on pure aosp that is provided by sony.

That's great news for all Z device users :)

Regards,

Omar.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] e753:
Cool!!!

Where did u get the news?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] OmarEinea:
Well I'm in contact with one of PA devs (who's in both original PA and legacy one)

also you can see here that they've started supporting Z1 Compact:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] joulukas:
When Paranoid-pop was about to be released, they stated, that there wasnt a maintainer for Ultra, so they discontinued the support. Tho I thought, that saw in opther posts, that Ultra was still supported (with a solid maintainer). Also the official DL page doesnt contaign Ultra data anymore.

Guess thats the reason for "abandonment info".
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] saenz4931:
Waiting for goodies... Hope it's soon
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pTeronaut:
They did, then Omar said he was going to pick it up once PA went stable, but he must have been sidetracked with all of his other fine works.

Thanks for picking it up, I await patiently to sample the fruits of your works.

So the CM 10.2 ROM is having notifications problems I heard (probably with LED?). Does that all work fine in this ROM?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] nihal1983:
no

since this is based on the CM10.2 base it will have the same bugs including the notification leds not working.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Leechoonhwee:
I believe the yellowish tint is a calibration issue in 510 Rom which was rectified in 532. Well since nobody mentioned anything I guess it's no issue on CM as well.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] velvetmxo:
The amazing thing about this rom is that it reads NTFS
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] AntiLazarus:
Well the thing is, I experienced this on 532. The display was yellow, no doubt, didn't even have to compare it to anything to be able to tell. When I did put the two phones side by side with the same image on both, what stuck out to me was the fact that the Z Ultra's display was obviously too yellow. Again, it didn't bother me just a whole lot. but it was obvious. After flashing PA, however, I thought it looked a little different, so I repeated the experiment, and this time, when both phones were next to each other, what immediately stuck out to me was that the Nexus 4's display looked too blue. It wasn't too blue by the same margin by which the ZU's display was too yellow to begin with, but now the ZU's display looks pure white as far as i can tell. Anyway, the point is, kudos to the PA guys for this unexpected benefit.

3. fastboot flash boot boot.img (from aospa/cm10 zip)

Just rooted and installed recovery on this great ROM post. But I'm new and need the noob instructions for this step: flash of the cm boot.img. I assume I install the file once located via CWM recovery? Not sure why I'd need to be PC/USB connected. Thanks as I'm excited to flash this rom.

UPDATE: 1) Thanks [MENTION=2726488]AntiLazarus[/MENTION] for the step by step http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=46098266&postcount=68

2) I was originally concerned after rooting but before flashing the rom's boot.img with flashtool the CWM would freeze and reboot if I stopped hitting key for 3 seconds - after flashing it was normal and allowed me to easily (well not as easily as TWRP) flash the rom and gapps.

3) It's beautiful! This is an awesome device and rom and I expect demand will now jump to own one. Great job!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] velvetmxo:
you need to be in flashboot to flash the boot.img . and then you place the .zip onto your sdcard to flash via recovery
