Wanting to flash this ROM but..

Hello,

I'm wondering if the video bug that I noticed when I flashed an earlier version of the rom is still there, and also if there are any other known bugs or disfunctionings ;)

Thanks!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nameless One:
Simple, click on the download link in the first post of the discussion thread and download a newer update (avoid the the update for the 26th though as it is corrupt, 27th works well in terms of the things I do with my phone, I don't use every feature/app. I'm currently downloading the 28th)

The best way to find out if something newer works or has problems is to try it yourself. This is particularly true since some people have problems with some ROMs (FXP, Candyrom, this ROM etc) and not others for no reason that anyone can determine, just a peculiarity of their phone.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nameless One:
When you flash a new version of the same ROM you can generally do what they refer to as a "dirty" flash which is to flash without doing a factory reset, the only wipe you should do when dirty flashing is to wipe Dalvik cache. When you dirty flash all your settings and apps should remain in place.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nameless One:
The first thing I would try is to install a decent recovery (almost anything except CM recovery) and leave out the step to flash boot.img, that will merely replace your good recovery with the CM one. Then do the other steps (except re-flashing the good recovery since that shouldn't be necessary)

You don't need to use CM recovery to install a CM based ROM.

---------- Post added at 05:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:56 PM ----------

I'm not sure, but if you already have a working recovery flashed to the fotakernel partition, such as TWRP 2.8.4.0, I think you don't need to fastboot the boot.img before flashing the ROM zip.

Flashing the boot.img overrides your recovery and kernel.

I would fastboot flash the boot.img and then the recovery of your choice to the fotakernel partition, and then install the ROM.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ultraemi:
Ok...

So u dont need to use fastboot? Easily flash zip?

I have a C6602 and here what i did.

1. Make sure Bootloader is Unlocked and you have Root access.

2. Download ROM+GApp+SU and place them on the External SD card.

3. Download any other Recovery.img if you need (Personally i have twrp-2.8.4.1) copy it to your Internal SD card and flash it to your fotakernel.(dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel

4. Open the Rom.zip with winzip or winrar and extract boot.img and place in the same folder you have adb on the computer.

5. Boot to fastboot (adb reboot bootloader) and flash boot.img (fastboot flash boot boot.img)

6. Boot to recovery.

7. Clear cache and install ROM+GApps+SU, Reboot.

Next turnoff the Phone

hold the volume UP button and connect the usb to phone to the PC, make sure you have the drivers loaded.

the phone is now in bootloader or fastboot mode if the led is blue. check device manager in the computer to make sure you have the fastboot drivers are installed.

then go to the folder where you have adb.exe, hold shift and right click and click on open command window here

type "fastboot devices" and check if your phone serial number is listed there, if not you have not installed the fastboot drivers

then

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
