No root and recovery?

Then is it not possible to flash this rom on a locked bootloader, downgrade to .314, root it and install recovery and wipe data/cache/dalvik in recovery and flash it !

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Hussainally:
Sorry bro...where to place the ROM ..SD card or phone?

,
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rpk12:
I guess the stereo speakers is not working in this FW too for incoming call/notification

Please do something for D6502.

:D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Hussainally:
Sorry guys ..real dumb question ..sorted
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] nhuduy:
oh.... unlucky, may be this root is not support for D6502,

i setup and problem with wifi, i change kernel but unsuccessful....
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] darwinzp:
Its okay you can put it on Sd or Phone.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] ghostofcain:
Pure conjecture it's entirely possible (even probably imho), that the later release is a carrier specific firmware.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] RedSkyRoad:
Considering all the issues mentioned, I can't see how Sony would released something as half-baked as this...
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] brouwerchris:
just to share :

Unlocked bootloader .167 installed through EMMA,flashed Doomlord advanced stock kernel/CWM v7,rooted with update SuperSu 2.16.zip,then debloated :

-noise cancelling works fine (tested in kitchen with fan on max)

-camera doesn't lag,works maybe even a little faster than on .314,same picture quality as on .314

-even with two speaker mod ringtones/notifications lower volume than .314 ,too low to be acceptable.

What do i do in recovery, do i wipe and factory reset?? Please give clear and precise instructions thanks

Great work keep it up??
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rohorubo:

Why should i...

So, why should i try this, instead of this [ROM][KK][LB,UB][.314] eXistenZ Ultimate | 3.1.5 | Light & Dark | AROMA | Complete Z3? this seems to have all the good thing, xloud, noise cancelation and many, many more! Would really like to hear your views on this :D Within the next hour i will be installing one of them ;D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Pandemic:
No on phone memory (sdcard0) if you put it on the sd card (sdcard1) nothing is there in recovery ;)

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] niaboc79:
You are right, stock 4.4.4 is offering less than actual eXistenZ Ulimate ;)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] mik101:
Because 167 is Android 4.4.4 and 314 is 4.4.2.... 167 is a newer build that Sony only pushed yesterday, whereas eXistenZ is a quite modified version of the previous release.

If you don't wanna bug test, you'll wanna stick to the older release for now.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] amon87:
Now we can clearly see what niaboc's work means. Instead of rushing towards new version we should sit tight and let his magic do its work :) I'm waiting for eXistenZ. There's no other option for me ;)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] V4LKyR:
Can someone who flashed this put a screenshot of their "About Phone" window here with Build Number, Kernel Version and Baseband Version included?

Thanks.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Funky303:
Off we go :)

Just installed it. Noice Cancellation with my Sony MDR-NC13/EM not working. Cam is not laggy.

Only big no no is the thing that I just lost my acces to the external SD Card for my music player. I don't use Sony Walkman, I have doubeTwist installed. All my podcasts were on the external drive. The files are still there, but no access to the drive from doubleTwist.

BIG PROBLEM !

Clock isn't working. And so no alarm clock eather :( I'll reinstall .314 eXistenz

Damn you google for that ****e!

Cam is okay.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Haldi4803:
It's a "mobile data ACtivated" message.

And i also get it every time!

I flashed it from scard with no issue.

---------- Post added at 11:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:08 PM ----------

Most of the issues mentioned here aren't present for me, haven't tried noise cancelling yet. Don't know if it makes much difference but I haven't flashed de-odex patch.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rohorubo:
Nope. It always changes to deactivated after a few seconds. If I activate it manually it just changes again to deactivated within seconds.

The SD card issue, is normal android 4.4 behaviour there are a variety of apps to restore access, Clock working fine here.

---------- Post added at 11:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:37 PM ----------

Data working fine here also.

Just a thought but I dirty flashed this rom over existenz 3.15 (no wipes) and haven't de-odexed might this be why I'm not experiencing the same subpar performance as most of you?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] V4LKyR:
NC is not working, cam is LAGGY. But front camera isn't laggy, that's interesting. Only the rear (main) camera is laggy.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] lanc3lot:
It works perfectly for me, ty for everything niaboc79

That means the clock, the noise cancelling, no fc, at last my wifi doesn't drop, everything to me is ok

[MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION]:

First of all, a BIG thanks! Did the update as described and it worked like a breeze. No issues getting the dual-recovery up and running, no issues flashing the ROM via PhilZ from SDcard, no (at least so far) issues while using the phone.

However, there's a small strange thing: I did a backup via PhilZ upfront to SDcard which finished apparently nicely (checked it under Windows and it appears it's all there). Now, after having flashed the ROM, PhilZ is no longer able to see/detect any external SDcard (no more sdcard1), only the internal ones. Therefore, I'm not able to restore the backup from the SDcard. TWRP, however, does detect it, but -obviously- it can't restore what has been backed-up via PhilZ. Any idea? Should I re-install the dual-recovery?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] xarfrost:
Okay im done flashing official .314 then updated via PC Companion to 4.4.4, now everything works, noise cancelling is okay, now the camera is still laggy. I guess its the firmware that has issues. =| Going back to Existenz i guess.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] hotnikkelz:
Can I go from this to existenz without wiping data? Also anyone finds that philcwm takes FOREVER to wipe? NC is the only thing not working for me. Haven't had the large camera
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] ghostofcain:
Just a thought but are those complaining of lagging camera running de-odexed? Unless your planning on modding apps there is every reason not to de-odex especially since we know it breaks noise cancelling.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] crying:
Here all things work perfect. If you wipe all, including system and got a error. No reboot, unmount system and reflash (credit niabok). I don't flash deodex. I've one very little problem, the message for activated data is always here after reboot. Thx niabok
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] lanc3lot:
Yeah, that's my only issue here too. Is there any possible solution on that? ty
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] CarlitosMendezR:
Xperia with Facebook only syncs calender, could it be an apk missing or that's normal now??? Would like to sync with contacts.

Confirm noise cancelling not working also data enabled on status bar after reboot, no lag with camera yes it apears to have more noise, all I tested up to now, keep on the good work and thanks.

Flashed odex zip with philz wiping for new rom and immediately flashed odex zip.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] kumbangdesa:
I'm using this module..the problem is solved..try it mate.. :)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] mik101:
Everything works fine here.

Install the facebook app and use that to sync the contacts. The Xperia w/FB seems to only be calendar like you noticed. My contacts are syncing properly with the FB app installed though.

Everything seems good here, other than the slight annoyance of the mobile data enabled notification on every reboot.

(Im still odexed).

Thanks Niaboc79!
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Envious_Data:
I dont know why but i get a Media process FC when i start modifying things weather it be this rom, my own creation or even anything else that is 4.4.4

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Haldi4803:
Mhmmm... did you download MMS and internet settings from provider ? could have sworn it was a data enabled -.o

To debloat rom i always go into app settings and simply deactivate all the apps i don't like. i.e. Lifelog, sony slecect a.m.m.

This does not work with the stupid WhatsNew app. you need root browser (ord adb) and delet the whatsNeworwhateveritwascalledagain.APK (think it was something with welcome or startup....) in the system/apps or system/priv-apps not sure anymore.

P.S i heard you can change Icon size in launcher by the "Xperia Xposed" Xposed module.

Full root in my D6502 not working, could you check it? Please!

Don't wipe /system as flash will fail, wiping /Dalvik and /Cache is advisable though.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] kirby76:
Help me please

Sorry Guys, but i don't get the process, how should i do that?

A had a 314 with root. Yesterday put on the phone 167 Firmware thanks to Jozinek.

Now, if i need root on 167, do i need downgrade to 314, than root, recovery and

put the 167 back??? How will not the root be deleted after a clean install (flashtool)???

Sorry for my incomprehension.....
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] ghostofcain:
Yes, downgrade to .314, root and install dual recovery, then using CWM, backup, wipe /Cache, /Dalvik-cache and flash a pre-rooted zip of .167
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] bluheart:
For D6502, flash the kernel and the baseband via FTF file.

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] sxtester:
Can anyone here please check whether PhilZ recovery is still able to see the external SDcard (sdcard1) after having flashed .167?

While still on .314 both recoveries could see sdcard1 (I actually flashed from sdcard1), but now it's only TWRP. PhilZ does not recognize it anymore.

Any ideas, please?!
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] niaboc79:
Flash latest Nut Dual recovery ;)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] HeartUnderBlade:
Same problem with me. My recovery is not able to see the /sdcard1. I was going to do a nandroid backup to my SD card but realized that none of the recovery could see the /sdcard1 location.

Just saw niaboc's response. Indeed, installing the new NUT dual recovery does solve the issue.

Hi friends:

is there any solution for the low volume on notifications?

Thanks
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] hush66:
It's an issue with the Sony firmware itself (nothing to do with niaboc79's ROM). So you just have to wait for Sony to fix it in the next release. You might want to see this thread for workarounds that other users have reported.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rohorubo:
a bit strange. how do I a clean install when I don't have to wipe system? I did it without wiping system with the result that it's only an update and all my settings are here. BUT mobile network doesn't work.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] ghostofcain:
DELETED
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rohorubo:
ok, thank you. So I can't use this ROM...don't get mobile data to work. It always deactivates after a few seconds.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] ghostofcain:
Did you come from stock .314? If not might be worth flashing stock for your region and then trying again, also try flashing untouched ftf of 4.4.4 and see if data issue is with THIS rom or the original FW.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rohorubo:
ok, will try. I'm coming from existenz 3.1.5. rom. So I will do the following:

1. install stock .314

2. root

3. install this ROM

correct?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] ghostofcain:
Yes, don't forget to install dual recovery and preferably flash from CWM, which seems more reliable.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] DaGhostman:
Can someone report if they have issues with Video Unlimited?

Whenever I try to login or open the app I see a pop-up (See screenshot) dunno if it is the room or something on my side.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] benjmiester:
Crap, I've been wiping system with every rom install (mostly non-stock though) Facepalm! I can indeed confirm that if you wipe system then try to reboot recovery without flashing anything it will just sit at Sony logo. Did this by accident and had to go fasboot a boot.img to get recovery again. Woops. Been flashing to big for my britches lol.

So if I've wiped my system is nothing going to flash. Most roms seemed to flash ok after I did that, but I tried Envi's new 0.6.1B and got a fail to flash once, and was getting black screen that never booted.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] ghostofcain:
It's just a problem with the pre-rooted zips of 4.4.4 as far as I am aware,

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] niaboc79:
Because i have used an old NUT dual recovery zip.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] niaboc79:
What are you talking about...

Of course you can wipe system before to flash. But this is not necessary cause my updater script do it by default.

If the flashing give an error you must simply unmount system and retry.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] rohorubo:
Ok, tried it several times. Also wiping "data" but I don't get mobile data working. So I will wait for "official" root method ;)

---------- Post added at 03:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:53 PM ----------

So you mean:

Wipe Dalvik, Cache, Data and System --> did the first time and result was that I couldn't install your ZIP

So by your words...I have to wipe everything, unmount system and the flash again?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] ric69:
You need to DL your carrier VPN, base rom is from Russia AFAIK
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] niaboc79:

Also you must download apn :)

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] forty two:
I flashed this and still have a couple of (fairly hard to reproduce??) bugs.

First, the phone will not accept default app, for dialer for instance (use always).

If I select use phone, from, for example the messaging app, as default (the other being viber) the default app choice will not be accepted. The messaging app will always display the two apps to choose?

Second, the Flicker part of the Album app says: "Could not authenticate..."

This has persisted trough several firmwares???

I'm not aware that anybody else has these?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] niaboc79:

Hi XDA,

I just upgraded from the Tab 8.9 to the Tab S 8.4 - I'm so happy with it !!

I have this pouch for my Tab 8.9:

I've been searching and the closest I could find for the Tab S 8.4 is this:

Does anyone know of a pouch for the Tab S 8.4 that is just like the above for the Tab 8.9?

--that is, no clips or anything - just a snug-fitting, landscape pouch.

[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] pinsb:
Guys

You want to look for Ipad Mini sleeves that are a bit taller then the Ipad unit itself.

The Ipad Mini and Tab S 8.4 are almost identical in size, from Wikipedia.

Ipad Mini

200mm (7.9") x 134.7mm (5.3") x 7.5mm (0.3")

Tab S 8.4

212.8mm (8.4") x 125.6mm (4.9") x 6.6mm (0.26")

So if you get a sleeve with less then half an inch of extra length top to bottom it should take the Tab S perfectly, but of course YMMV.

how is the tab 8.9 pouch? snug fit? would it fit with a TPU case on the tablet?
