Why it's no custom rom based on stock for Tablet Z ? And a small number mods for stock ?
I have locked bootloader on my tablet and i must stay on stock and i don't have any choice. I must have normal stock or i must do something myself.
It's a weird because all xperia's have thier own mods for stock and for us is nothing

so, ill anserw you with a example:
im using sgp321 but also Xperia T with stock 4.3 android but modded by someone, so its mean ive xperia z2 home.apk, settings, bravia engine 7, and much more, because sony sucks and ill no more recive an update fe. straight to 4.4... with xpeira tablet z1, you have became 4.4, so its the same firmware as xperia tablet z2. the same laggy settings (yea, with newest update xtz2 is also laggy -.-'), home launcher, ect.
another custiomization and ported apps you can install with xposed or from or from android 4.4 devices froums (explecielly from Xperia Z non-tablet). or unlock yours bootloader and install whatever you want.
thats all.

Hey guys,
I am new here and a newbie to android as well.
I just wanted to know if the Bravia engine works if we load custom ROMs on Arc. I got this doubt since I see the bravia engine options under display settings. And also read that bravia engine will be triggered automatically while viewing images, vidoes and browsing.
Please enlighten me..
You mean if you root the Arc will it work or you mean to install a custom rom(like another android version)??
I believe what he is trying to get at is: If we were to flash a custom ROM onto the Xperia Arc, would we still have access to the Mobile Bravia Engine built into the phone? Since the stock ROM has options to toggle it on or off, he is questioning whether the Mobile Bravia engine itself is software-based, or hardware-based.
Exactly, that is what I mean. Would it work?
You have 3 kind of custom roms:
-Based on stock
-Ported rom from another device
-Universal rom like MIUI and CM
In the 1st case it will retain all the SE options, in the second one only if it's a port from another Bravia SE phone (later?), and for the third case it depends on the dev team if they want to implement them or not
I doubt we'll see any custom rom on arc,anyway.
Bravia Engine is just a software image enhancer. It won't work in ROM's that aren't based on SE's stock rom. If devs manage to dig deep enough in the stock rom, they might be able to port the Bravia Engine to other devices, though. It's just software, after all.

Why?! That's a completely irrational comment.
Can you name any dev who has the Arc and willing to build a rom?

Thanks for that well informed and insightful opinion (insert sarcasm here).
Hi,
Because we all have diffrent opninion about our Sony Xperia SP I would like to do a very small reseach.
With this very easy poll I just want the next question answered:
Are you running official 4.1.2 or 4.3.x?
If you are running a custom ROM (CM, PA or even stockbased) answer Custom ROM..
If you have answerd the question please let me know in a comment:
Tell which one you have chosen (perhaps even the build number of the version you run) and wheter you are happy with it or not!
Thanks!
OP will kickoff:
I have chosen for Stock Sony 4.3.x. I am not that happy with it because it still has a few bugs. I do however am happy because Sony finnaly took the time to update it after delay and more delay. Now we are just waiting for KitKat.
I still choose 4.3 because camera feature and others.
205 fw
I'm running 4.3, without much talk it's just the best choice right now since many bugs have been fixed and it does come with some pretty nice features
I'm in 4.3.... every OS have bugs, but at least with 4.3 you have more features here and there and thats why is better that stay in a old OS version
Also last update just let me little visual bugs (install app bar), GPS (not the big deal) and Wifi (well Wifi range sucks since 4.1)
I am on stock 4.3,and i am happy!
Nearly all bugs are fixed,only ram is failing in some moments
Happy with stock 4.3 latest fw, much better than previous updates. No lag here, so its good for me after all those laggy updates.
I had lag issues with all versions of the stock ROM I've tried. After testing a whole bunch of custom ROMs I've settled on CM 10.1. While it is not exactly cutting edge, it has been out of active development for many months, it is rock solid and stable.
I use stock 4.3 as camera is important to me. I found PA 4.4.4 to be the fastest rom for me, but I want to be able to control ISO manually on my camera. I tried various versions of 4.3 and decided to stick with my carrier version (O2 UK). Once towel rooted and debloated I find it to be very fast and stable. More so than the various deodex stock roms on the forum.
Yea I am also on the .205 4.3 firmware, I am UK customised, one of the last to get it but it is good. I fixed the uninstall glitch with a fixed package installer apk, only issue I have experienced is battery drain due to location services and lower ram (compared with 4.1.2).
I'm using 4.3, with eXistenZ Ultra. Couldn't be happier [emoji1]
Stock 4.1.2 is the best
I'm using stock 4.1.2 with swap on stock kernel
Was on latest stock every time a new firmware was released, then switched to eXistenZ when it seemed like we'd never have KK, but I've never been deceived with either stock firmware or eXistenZ, both have always been very fast and I've never experienced any lag or disconfort on this phone.
EXistenZ is perfect. 4.3 is better than 4.1 imho

I personally favours CM 11 because of a few flaws present in the stock ROM. Not to be lying, I really like Sony's UI (framework-res.apk) and some aspects of the stock ROM. As per to my experience, the stock ROM is not that heavily modified as I can somehow use some things that are meant for AOSP-based ROMs, which is a huge plus for me. However, when it comes to support and RAM, it fails to meet my requirement, and that is what forced me to use CM.

Nope, I can assure you, maybe I've just been lucky but all of the bugs and lags that have been blamed on it ? I've never had them. The only bad point for me is the pretty average camera.
I'm on stock 4.3 (.205 fw). Best I've experience by far, both feature-wise and usability. RAm management could be better though.
Hi everyone, I am not a developer, and I know this question is probably redundant, but I am wondering what is the closest you can get to stock android lollipop with the note 4 specific features. I understand roms are either based on stock android or touchwiz framework, and you have to pick one or the other, but I'm really torn, I have flashed 5.1 on both my S3 and S4 and I absolutely love it, I'm still waiting for the lollipop update from telstra for my stock note 4, but I think when it finally comes around I'm going to be disappointed that it's more touchwiz than lollipop. I guess my question is like I said before, how close can you get to stock lollipop but retain s pen, multi window, etc? Would it be possible to start out with a TW base and swap out all of the UI and apps for stock LP ones? I know I'm way oversimplifying it, I just really want the best of both worlds, I don't really want to root my note unless I can get as close as I can to stock lollipop with the note extras.

If you are not looking into rooting, I recommend Google Now Launcher. It is the most stock Android UI experience you can get on a nonnexus phone. Since it's just a launcher, you retain all your device features. If you are looking into swapping out all of the UI and apps from TW base to stock LP ones, however you will experience this error message everytime you exit out of an app: "Android.System.UI has stopped working", so I do not recommend that.

You're awnser lies amongst the rooted side flashing a tw rom that is aggressively debloated of apps even some essentials and using stock ones from google and then i guess theming the rom to look like a stock pure lollipop. I heard there are some nice alternatives for the spen usage and multiwindow i have tried some in the past on pure android on note 2 but the experience is nowhere near the stock apps from tw, regarding spen and multiwindow.

If you want to keep eveything, you will have to think about a launcher indeed. Goole Now Launcher will be the closest thing.
Google now launcher: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.launcher
I would say when rooted, flash CM12 official, and use CM SPen addon, in combination with notebuddy for you SPen features. You will only lose the multiwindow (links down below).
Spen Addon: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tushar.cmspen2
Notebuddy: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tushar.spen_helper
CM12 Official: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/orig-development/official-cm12-910f-910g-t3046965

yeah but you still lose the epic camera quality.
as much as i dislike touchwiz and like cm12 i keep running on stock rom becouse the camera quality on CM based roms is just to bad.
if only there was a way to get the camera quality on a cyanogenmod rom it would be so awesome i wouldnt even care about the spen anymore
:fingers-crossed:
Hii
For now there is NO ROM for the device...
And if you look on google
And If you look on xda
Every Xperia X Series model has no support for custom rom
The best one is xperia X performance model becouse it has like 4-5 custom roms
The other phones of the X series only have some of stock modified kernel's
So, another thing is
The Xperia XA Ultra model from 2016 ( Last year old model )
Has after more then one year not even one custom rom
Wich means that if we get even stock kernel it will be amazing
I do not think there will be custom rom for our model
The best would be modified stock roms and kernels..
But, the good thing is we will get Oreo.. with the new things it brings
But it still will be looking like the same as now Nougat look like and will
have some nice new features like picture in picture mode and other stuff..
So, I hope I have answer you question to get a custom rom from anyone here..
Next time
Do your homework
before even buying some phone and then
wanting all the custom roms and root and bla bla bla
Google is a good thing you know

In my opinion the rom with the best user experience for this device is the Unofficial Resurrection Remix.
It also has undervolting to use less battery and heat
i prefer official lineage OS instead of stock rom
lighter, less bloatware, and easy customization
