Hi, first of all excuse my bad english.

I manage to cast my Nexus7 to the tv, using both chromecast or Miracast (included in the TV), but the main problem is when it comes to Skype or Hangouts, the sound only comes from the Nexus itself, it's very annoying as the speakers aren't loud enough.

I'll be so glad if someone could help me with that.

Thanks in advance

There are at least 3 ways to root (after unlocking the bootloader and installing TWRP):

1) Flash SU/SuperSU

2) Flash a rooted ROM

3) Exit TWRP, at which time TWRP will tell you the ROM is not rooted, and will give you the option to do so.

Another option) Somewhat the same above, but a different way to get there: You can temp root with sunshine, sunshine s-off, then unlock the bootloader, and then root by any of the above methods.

These folks have spent a lot of time writing the Index threads and guides. XDA is a wealth for information, for those that bother taking a bit of time to read and search. Most any question you can think of has already been asked and answered before, if not countless times already. So you have to be a bit understanding when the question "how do I root" does not get the most favorable response.

Also, you ask for "easiest" and "simple", but what you should really be asking for is the

best

way to proceed. And the best way is to read and understand the basic concepts and processes before you try anything. Rather than rush in willy-nilly with some step-by-step tutorial or video that does nothing but get you into trouble, without the proper knowledge or skills to get out of that mess.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xs101:
the easyiest way by far if you have bootloader unlocked is to install TWRP, as it allready contains SuperSu 2.4.0 and will ask you if you want to root your phone. It's practical because SuperSu works well with the other apps like Sunshine which need root, and handles root requests.

The steps to s-off are pretty straight forward : bootloader unlock from HTC website, install TWRP, install SuperSu (from twrp), install sunshine, pay 25$, done.

The long awaited lollipop update for the Xperia Z2 has started rolling out. Let's discuss here, our thoughts, what we like and our disappointments on this update. How it is, and how u think it should be.

This is to keep those who have updated informed and to help those who are yet to update get a virtual experience of the ROM, so to speak. Share ur thoughts, be straight to the point.

Please note that this is not an avenue to rant, 'App2sd' feature for instance is a sign that Sony listens, be reasonable, just share ur thoughts and ideas, as simple as that.

Is it me or is the default colour for the status bar blue instead of black? Even in chrome the status bar is bright blue.
[Xperia Z2 General] B1nny:
Xposed is available, if you have root. Niaboc79's pre-rooted zip file should work just fine. Regarding recovery, if you wanted to flash a zip file, you could flash a previous kernel via fastboot, boot into recovery and do your flashing. Then reboot again in fastboot and flash the kernel back that the Lollipop ROM came with. (I think that should work, can't think of a reason why it wouldn't)

You can change it to other colours under themes. Well there are no black theme though.

[Xperia Z2 General] VaLee:
Tried it for a couple of days and to be honest it feels rushed and incomplete, and somehow I feel this is the community's fault.

The Pros are the same as with any Lollipop device, smoother, cleaner, faster, etc., nothing new regarding Sony's specific software.

The Cons on the other hand were enough to make go back to 4.4.4. X-Reality not working, themes color schemes out of place and not matching, improper allignment of some icons, reducing the number of quick settings on the drop down menu, no widgets on the lock screen, useless search bar on recent app screen which also gets bugged if you uninstall some bloatware, etc.

I know some of these things can be patched/moded but that is not enough for me. Guess waiting for 5.1 if that's gonna be a thing afterall.
[Xperia Z2 General] catalin.v:
Pretty good, considering your horrid mobile signal.

~5 hours of SOT is what I usually get on 4.4.4, with mobile data on the whole time, Wi-Fi from time to time, but far better mobile signal strenght.
