[Sony Cross-Device General] FcukBloat:
V5 uploaded! (md5: 1B564456CA8B6CFC300DD9F0A81948DA)

see OP for links info etc...

...still .28 and only customized IT version available with LTE icon.

updated dual recovery to 2.8.15

restored VpnDialogs as per general demand

removed new following apps:

- "/system/app/qcrilmsgtunnel", (always running process, no side effects removing it so far, thanks [MENTION=1226502]drorcun[/MENTION] for the advice!)

- "/system/priv-app/filecommander", (removed again, replaced by ES File Manager)

- "/system/priv-app/SemcVideo",

added again Xposed APK, ES File Manager and Gravity Box in place of the product apps provided by Sony in the FW (thanks [MENTION=3172970]Puffin617[/MENTION] for the advice!) [so using my FW you will find everything you need to get xposed already up and running, while using the debloat script to get xposed to work you will only need to flash xposed flashable zip in recovery]

AOSP Browser + ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter (for syncing Chrome bookmarks with AOSP browser) still present but now in the correct place (following lollipop correct folders structure, this way you won't see anymore "android is updating" message at boot: old ones in wrong place will be deleted automatically by the FW V5 or updated script)

added ext sdcard fix in the FW (thanks [MENTION=3634831]ovizii[/MENTION] for the advice!)

NOTES: ES File Manager, xposed APK and Gravity Box module are placed in /system/etc/product/applications when the updated script runs, so they are not really installed immediately, but they are going to be installed during first boot, this means only in case you clean flash my FW or flash my updated script before first reboot/immediately after doing a factory reset.

If you dirty flash my FW or updated script, they are not going to be (re)installed, you will just find them in /system/etc/product/applications folder and you can either keep them there or just delete them, nothing really changes as they won't hurt :)

> If you just want to update to V5 without loosing data, you can dirty flash the update, so no need to wipe data, just wipe system, cache and dalvik.

> If you want to get your config as in V5, but don't want to download the whole package, just download and flash the updated script, without wiping anything. This way you will:

delete the new apps mentioned at the beginning from /sytem (qcrilmsgtunnel, filecommander and SemcVideo). [VpnDialogs will have to be restored manually]

fix the AOSP browser installation + bookmarks sync apk + delete old versions in wrong places

fix the ext sdcard thing

get xposed apk, ES file manager and Gravity box APK's placed in /system/etc/product/applications (and not installed, you can delete them if you want doesn't matter)

for those using different FWs and only using my script, flashing the new one will obtain the same as immediately above, only difference is that as usual to get xposed to work is needed to flash xposed flashable separately.

Also, remember that if you don't want any of the apps included now in the script (AOSP browser+syncing app, ES file manager, xposed APK and Gravity Box) installed/placed in /etc folder, you can open the script zip before flashing it, and remove the apps you want from within the zip, this way they won't be found/installed when flashing the script
