But not every one can unlock their bootloader na? So we have to wait some more time for the modding..

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] sh4d1t0:
Argh! Guys I'm lost right now, the correct steps are:

1. Under to 4.4.2 (314) if I am on 4.4.4 (169)

2. Root with option 3 on NUTs

3. Flash this rom

4. Changes the configutation on super su (on first post). For RW access.

"All of this with Locked BL".

Then Unlock BL and flash the Advanced Kernel by androplus

Then flash Unlock BL DRM Fix. Right?

Noob Question and please noob-friendly answer:)

Hi Guys.. I already flashed 5.0.2 Generic Baltic on my D6503 , So my question is do I have to downgrade it to4.4.4 to flash it again with this pre-rooted one? And after that I can flash this kernel from androplus to get working recovery? I'm sorry for my dumbness pls forgive. :silly:
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] wickedmx:
I can confirm this as well. Extracted and flashed boot.img using fastboot and have full root, r/w access, and working recovery. Use NDRTools boot options for easy reboot into recovery.

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] sbcontt:
Guys this is my third time starting all over again. The first time superuser got messed up (I had installed a different busybox), the second time superuser was ok but phone went into bootloop after enabling encryption. Do encryption and root go along together?

The lack of a recovery is really depressing. With a recovery it was simply a matter of factory reset and then restoring an old backup. Without one I am back to flashing old FW and rooting, installing recovery....

I think that for the sake of security I can give up root, after doing certain things like installing a few apps as system apps. Do system apps get rw access to /system?

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] vyis:
[lock bootloader] i follow the same steps, upon boot up the system and root is mounted on R/W. However if you change to R/O, there's no way to revert back to R/W unless reboot.

So i'm wondering some people report no problem with root are using root explorer that doesn't remount to R/O after changes (like ES file explorer), those using Solid explorer will have problem after 1st write.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] benjmiester:
Been a few days of normal use. Everything seems nice and happy. Battery life improved more after I froze a few of the stock apps that I don't use like what's new, social life, google+, disabled weather updates in calendar, etc. Recovery also seems to be working fine.

Question though, If I backup and then flash to another rom (was eyeing that 5.1.0 AOSP build), will I need to flash the z2 advanced stock lp boot.img again after doing a restore of this stock rom should I come back to it? Or will the boot.img also be restored from the backup?

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] peddarson:
I am using this Rom since yesterday. Running good so far.

Batterylife seems good after I removed tons of the Sony apps and bloatware.

I don't know what the screen was on kitkat, because income from cm12 but the screen seems a bit dark on this firmware. Have to pull it halfway.

Also as said before some animations are missing ie. If you turn off the screen.

The speed seems also okay. I have the feeling that cm was a bit smoother on general. But that's a concern on a high level.

The signal strength is awesome though. Even in my favourite pub I got h+ (usually the phones have edge only there).

When flashing this kernel/recovery, would it still be necessary to flash NUT's 2.8.3 ZIP? Or can I just flash my own ROM zip and SuperSU?

SuperSU is also not required to flash, as the rom is already rooted :)

By TWRP did a clean install of the ROM.

Without restarting the Recovery installed updated SuperSu:

And installed this indicated Kernel, direct by TWRP:

Download this kernel Z2_ADV_stock_LP

I've suspected this. Can't quite confirm, but battery life seems only as good as any other LP rom. So it seems to be that stamina isn't really doing it's thing. Extended usage (restricted performance) part seems to help though, and I don't notice a difference (but don't play games).

Fix for RW issue

Hi,

Just want to share the fix i used to fix the

R/W issue

i was facing after installing this ROM on my rooted 4.4.2 Z2

[So far i can verify this ROM works perfectly fine in every aspect- Thanx a lot developer.]

After all the trials n errors, these steps finally worked:

* Flash the ROM as instructed (Evrything should work nicely except R/W access isuue.)

* Nut's recovery installation from Windows, will also not work bcz of the RW access deniability.

* Download- "remount reboot fix" from Nuts xperia dnload page - [nut xperia-files com]

* Install it through Windows installer as there is no recovery yet.

* After reboot of the device you should have complete RW access now. Install Nut;s recovery again just in case.

"" I got UID error after Z2 got RW access but that was bcz i didnt delete user data, i make use of APP2SD and FolderMount also and lot of App data was there to create such issues.

But thats not a prob, after a thorough clean up it was fixed too.

Hope this will help others too.

And Big thanx to [MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION] and developers and of course [MENTION=410007]Nut[/MENTION] for all the help.

For those who have tethering probrom and using three uk.

Hint: See the accompanied screenshots attached below.

0. First you need root (instruction),

1. Backup. I have no problems whatsoever with these steps, but if you have custom recoveries you might want to make a nandroid backup first.

(Optional): Using a root file explorer, go to the directory: /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/. Make a copy of the file settings.db to your sdcard for backup incase you need to restore it, we will be editing this file.

2. Buy this SQLite Editor. (There are other sqlite editors, but this one is the easiest to use. It's up to you.)

3. Open SQLite Editor, grant root for it, then under the APPS list, scroll down and tap on "Settings Storage".

4. It will search for databases and find "settings.db", tap on it.

5. While in "settings.db", select "global" from the list.

6. You will see a table with "id, name and value" columns. Tap on the + sign on the top right to add a new entry.

In the name field, name it: tether_dun_required. In the value field, write: 0

Tap on Save to save the entry, then exit the app.

8. Make sure you use the correct APN. If you have T-Mobile US, use the "fast.t-mobile.com" APN with IPv4, since tether isn't working with IPv6 yet.
