[Xperia Z2 General] Envious_Data:
well if this is the case then go to another brand

because honestly I'd rather wait since Sony have proven them self's

before they use to take half a year to give a buggy update

and instead with 4.4.4 they spend a month or two to give a flawless update, i have 0 issues on a Stock Rom.

from what has been shown from Sony and Lollipop I'm not surprised its taking forever

they are going from ground up. vs before which is usually recycling things

Thats one of many providers. Do u think all have the same date? No, it depends on modem testing, bloatware and stability. They did not say the version, 6503/02 65XX.

[Xperia Z2 General] benjmiester:
http://best-tech-reviews.com/sony-xperia-z2-android-5-0-lollipop-release-on-15-march-3411/

Not sure how credible this site is. But according to them, LP is supposedly getting the update starting in Aussieland on Vodafone first then globally. It's not really 100% clear, but it seems to indicate that the Z2 might get it first this week and the Z3 gets it next week?!! :good::good:
[Xperia Z2 General] Envious_Data:
well lets wait and see.

typically caries get it slightly later than generic devices but lets see if a chage of method is in place here..

i doubt it, sony is as stuborn as a bullet hitting a steel wall.
[Xperia Z2 General] benjmiester:
I sure hope so to.

I don't know what mine falls under as it was purchased online unlocked but is a D6503. I use it on Tmobile U.S. so I guess whenever they get it? But they don't sell the Z2. Only Z1 and Z3 which is retarded!
[Xperia Z2 General] Envious_Data:
what ever FTF has been last Flashed to your Z2 is the one which you will recieve updates for

unlocked bootloader or modified system = no updates unless you manualy update via FTF, Sin or IMG.
[Xperia Z2 General] benjmiester:
Aw crap that's right. So I'll be waiting on an FTF or flashable. Currently ULBL on CM12 Candy5. A bit ironic that I'm waiting for it while currently using it. But I really like Sony's stock, and I miss that stamina mode! Hoping for a new baseband too for better signal. We'll see on that last part, I don't know if that's too likely.
[Xperia Z2 General] pascalbrax:
I don't know, this new Android lollipop release seems full of bugs and doesn't really have wanted features (expect that material design that leaves me "meh").
[Xperia Z2 General] benjmiester:
It hasn't been released yet so I'm not sure what you mean about the bugs aside from the bugs with Roms that aren't due to lollipop itself. There's a few things to like more though. For one the scrolling is much smoother, especially in maps and facebook. Also, the overall ui animations are a bit faster in general. That's just based off CM12 though. I also love the notifications on lock screen that I can just tap and they open directly to the app.
[Xperia Z2 General] pascalbrax:
I mean Lollipop. And yes, it has been released on different phones like the Nexus, and people complain about all the bugs. It's not surprising so that people already talk about 5.0.1 or 5.0.2 because 5.0 is just a cluster**** of bugs and battery drainings.

The notifications on the lock screen are nice, but I will not enjoy them since I have the "unlock with bluetooth" feature on.
[Xperia Z2 General] benjmiester:
But those are other phones running other frameworks. I'm currently running 5.0.2 as well and battery life is great. No problems there. All the major Roms bugs have been sorted and things are fine too. Maybe just try an LP ROM and see what you think. Well, to each his own I guess. Stay on 4 if you like it.
[Xperia Z2 General] pascalbrax:
Yes, if Sony releases a 5.0.2 version then I'd love it. But a 5.0 update I would simply ignore it.

well let me give you more info then

there are two main ways to root

if you care about image enhancement , national warrenty and Camera auto post processing then locked bootloader is the way to keep it

however if you dont care and would like to go the easy way which you lose all of the above, you can unlock your bootloader install a custom kernel and recovery and flash tpoy

the PRF creator thread right near the top of the general section. itll explain how to root keeping a locked bootloader

Hey everyone,

so i've been going through these forums every now and then in anticipation to the day that my warranty expires and I can root my, currently pretty laggy, tablet. I've been at it for hours and feel absolutely helpless.

Would anyone be kind enough to guide me, semi-idiot proofly, through what I have to do. I actually feel lost, and it's a terrible feeling.

Questions:

- I am on a mac, is it easily doable or do you recommend a PC?

- What information do I need sorted?

- I've already transferred everything important to an external and just want a clean sweep of the tablet, is that possible or will i need to do a backup anyway?

- Where do I get started? What's next?

- What do i need to note down/does someone who wants to help me need to know? (baseband version, kernel version, build number?)

Info:

- SM-P605

- Android 4.3

- No warranty

-(what else is needed?)

thanks and im sorry if this has been asked before, I just jump from forum to forum and then confuse myself all over :eek::confused:
