Firmware 14.4.A.0.157_Customized NCB (1279-4149_R4C) Z1 Compact

14.4.A.0.157 ftf created from xperifirm firmware download..

whats different? plz som screenshot

is it rooted?

OTA update for me just 5.1 MB

so no need for full ftf? if full ftf http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55082588&postcount=1 might help root

I also created a FTF for this 14.4.A.0.157 Nordic Combined Base firmware with XperiFirm (independently from the original poster).

I haven't noticed anything different in terms of user interface so far. However, that is a new kernel and a new baseband so probably a few under-the-hood fixes from Qualcomm. On initial impressions it seems very fast and responsive (though previous firmware was also fast and responsive so that could just be placebo).

thanks a lot for this. I do prefer the nordic firmware because the signal icon and he data(4G) icon are separated

Just flashed this over the 2nd edition russian 14.4.A.0.108, and I don't see any visible changes to the UI. But for some reason(or maybe the absence of doomkernel and xposed modules) I feel that my phone feels more responsive like what paul5425 stated.
BTW, easyroottool does not work, so no root as of now?

Does that mean we lose our root for now?
I can update my Amami too, but if there is no root now, then I will wait

Maybe someone could make a pre-rooted and odexed .zip?
That would be great.

It might fix the exploit used by towelroot

i got it rooted by using .108 kernel and rooting it newroot and then flashing .157 kernel

I will do same as @Pakman123 i read on newroot thread that this is a way to root latest fw

Yes, please. So when I flash the deodex zip the bloatware will be removed? I probably also wouldn't be using the bloatware, but could you name what app you removed? I am a bit new with deodexing, I have tried and failed, so could you also tell me which recovery you used? Have You also tried if Xposed is working? With rooting I will be using newroot as I have understood, since it's not as easy? I know it's a lot of question, but thx in advance..

If you have the proper baseband, Yes you can flash. Otherwise, NO!!

Just want to double check before flashing.
I have 5.0.2 stock D6503, rooted. Bell (locked bootloader)
If I launch into recovery using the Kinguser app (reboots phone into a recovery) ,can I flash this rom safely from there?
I've never flashed or done anything with the basebands. But just in case, how would I double check it is stock?
Thanks in advance!

Can I install directly without wipe ( loss of apps or data) on existenz 2.6.0 ??

Not sure if you can do it that way but what i would do is downgrade back to kitkat and root using TowelRoot. Then flash this lollipop pre root using philz recovery.

Thanks for confirming, thought that might be the case.

I'm in kitkat 4.4.4 rooted. If i follow your guide to update, will i need to flash something else after finishing? (like kernel or baseband). I'm doing a nandroid now.

Thanks, working well for me

Cheers for this works fine apart from every music app gets killed when the screen is off for a few mins. I've turned off stamina, added exceptions to stamina mode etc but nothing has fixed it. Any ideas? Bit of a bugger when driving/ listening to music. Only started since flashing this.
Edit: sorted was Greenify. Must be a bit more efficient with the new os version as nothing was different from before

should I "fastboot flash boot boot.img" or something else?
My phone is running Carbon Rom 5.1.1 kernel 3.4.0 and it get stuck on sony logo when I've tried to flash this trough recovery
I've already restore it via flashboot flash recovery twrp.img restore a previous backup and reflash boot.img but as I'm experiencing camera issues (Couldn't connect to camera) want to try an stock kernel.

[Request] Sony's Android Concept Marshmallow Build 2085

Hello everyone,
As you know Sony give us a Concept Rom based on Android Marshmallow. It should have been only accessible to 10 000 people, but, Thanks to @Jozinek, @jenkins-84, and @russel5 every possessor of an Xperia Z3 Compact can flash this rom, using Flashtools or using custom recovery.
Among the tons of great things that this rom contains, Sony gives us OTA update. Initially the rom started on version 2058 and everyone could update to 2085 BUT Sony cut, for an unknown reason, the OTA update.
Some people have been able to update their rom BEFORE Sony's update cuting, and this is my request :
Someone having a Sony Xperia Z3 Compact using Sony's Android Concept Marshmallow updated to MRA58K.Z1.2085-somc, rooted or not, with custom kernel or not, please contact me, via this thread, or via PM, so I could try to make an flashable update for everyone stuck to 2053

[NEWS]
Hi there, some people send me, or are uploading their 2085 files. Thanks to them for responding me !
In the next hour I'll be working for the 2085 flashable zip, if all goes well, between today and tomorow, it will be available !
[NEWS 2]
Not enought quick, someone made it before me, so, sorry for those who wanted to help me but jenkins-84 made it ! Will give the link here when he finish his upload ^^

Its allmost same. No notable difference are there. But it is debloated and have more internal memory space and little less ram consumption than stock one.

Awesome and bugs free until now !!
Rom is perfect and there's no bugs for now but we need some thing more important like the system.ui for note or s and separate zip file for changing the traditional lollipop bootlogo
Are you going to do any of them??
