[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kanej2006:
I previously tried using the Xperia Z2 Ported camera app on my Z Ultra only it fucckked up my phone. I ended up with countless bootloops and I was forced to re-flash my rom. :(

I'm currently using Firmware 532 Android 4.2 and rooted. I followed the instructions exactly as they were written and it didn't work unfortunately.

All I'm after is using the Background Defocus apk on my Z Ultra. The instructions were not accurate and was incomplete.

Could someone please point me in the right direction, possibly with some easy to follow instructions?

Original link I previously followed:

http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/sony-xperi...ple-xperia-devices-apk-download-links-1439436

All the link contains are the apk files for the Z2 camera apps. It does not tell us how to use and install the apps.

What app/camera app must I use to open the apk files? Where can I get them from? What are the instructions as to what needs to be installed first, second and so fourth?

Thanks.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
What are you doing all the way back on 532? Don't expect new features to work when you're two OS updates behind (532 = 4.2.2).

The background defocus app/plugin requires Android 4.3 (290) or newer as far as I know/remember.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kanej2006:
Thanks for the link LordManhattan. Reason I'm all the way back on 532 was due to the fact all newer builds were buggy, worse performance, slow camera and there is no root for Kitkat as well as endless bugs.

Actually happy with 532, faster and smoother than 290 and above. I tried the update several times but always found myself going back to 532. Rock hard stable and faster than the newer updates.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
I find 290 to be a lot faster than 532, but it's software, so some people might find it very fast, while some may find it slower. There is also root for KitKat, and it's incredible easy to root it as long as your bootloader is unlocked, but it's not yet perfect, and it's a little buggy. A bigfix update is scheduled for this week though, so things will probably get better.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kanej2006:
I've just upgraded to Kitkat and rooted it using Jackie's guide and root method. It was an easy and straight forward process.

My bootloader wasn't unlocked, however, unlocking it was very quick and simple. I don't see KitKat being really faster. It does look slightly better, some icons and fonts have been changed, but differences are very minimal.

Boot time is substantially quicker than the previous updates. There are some delays/slight lag when launching some apps but hopefully these will be sorted out when the update is released.

Thanks for your help LordManhattan.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kanej2006:
I'm unfortunately still stuck at work in the office and haven't had the time to try the camera outdoors.

That said, the camera has been considerably improved in KitKat. Image noise has even decreased which is even better.

I'm quite happy with the Backround Defocus App. It can no way replace or excel a DSLR camera but it's a good improvement and works quite well.

Here are some samples taken indoors with poor lighting:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Yup, KitKat is a little slower than the previous builds, and that's pretty annoying to be honest, but we'll get an update this week as mentioned, so let's hope that much of the build gets better :)

Hi there everyone

I'm interested in knowing if anyone of you knows if it's possible to set USB as main audio output on the Xperia S?

I have gotten USB audio to work with the app "USB Audio Player PRO trial" but I want to listen to music on my Xperia from Spotify and WiMP. Is that in any way possible?

I have seen a few similar threads somewhere about this but with no definite answer to them.

If anyone is interested, I'm using a Audioquest Dragonfly 1.2 as a USB-DAC and Sennheiser HD 380 Pro.

Thank you in advance

[One (M8) Android Development] Guich:
Hi folks!

In this thread i will link the stock recovery for our one.

That recovery can be used for apply OTA update with the stock rom and the bootloader locked.

Download:

Dev-Host

How to flash?

1) Download your recovery

2) Put it on your adb/fastboot folder (if you don't have it, download from here (you have to unrar it))

3) Rename it to recovery.img

4) Open a CMD/Teminal windows on adb folder

5) Put your phone in fastboot

6) Flash the recovery with the command:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

7) Do an erase cache for security:

fastboot erase cache

​

You will contribute in this thread?

Please, post the recovery you have here, is highly appreciated! :)​

Will flashing the unlocked factory recovery over my O2 Ireland rom debrand & unlock it ? (Sorry been here long enough but still asking nebbish questions) :) Thanks.
[One (M8) Android Development] Mr Hofs:
No. If you want to debrand your phone you need to unlock the bootloader via the HTC dev site or get s-off if your device is supported. Then flash a custom recovery and make a stock rom nandroid backup. Then root the stock rom and remove the desired bloatware. Or install a new unbloated custom rom.
[One (M8) Android Development] francki:
But if you are s off and super cid, then flash 1.54.401.5 stock Rom then 1.54.401.5 firmware, you 'll be completely stock with OTAs no?

My thought is that the OTA depends of the right Rom and the right recovery but if you are super CID you can bypass the CID match. But I can be wrong, like you said if s off, matching CID is just a question of one command ??

[One (M8) Android Development] Mr Hofs:
- The custom recovery takes care of restoring the nandroid backup

- flashing the boot file from the nandroid backup ensures you that you are on the stock kernel

- flashing back the stock HTC recovery will let you install official OTA's
