story:
did you know that sony was already working on the multi window mode before they even knew that it will be one of the new featuress in Android N? but sony isn`t a *****. they hide their "special" features. but we can simply unlock them. because they have already built in the system, they will show up in the development options!
supported devices:
all SONY MARSHMALLOW DEVICES like
Z2, Z3, Z5, Compact Editions, Xperia X...
You`ll need:
root
root Explorer (like "ES File Manager")
Instruction:
1. find the folder /system/
2. search for the file "build.prop"
3. open it using a text editor
4. search for the line "ro.build.typer=user
5. change "user" to "userdebug"
6. safe the file and reboot
7. enable the developing options

Also I'm fairly certain this wasn't Sony's work. Google was the one working on multi-window pre-N.
spectacular job. Now Z2 is a super phone!!!!

Here is the latest Xperia PLay Firmware,avalibile for you to download !
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=8XHT14MR
What does this have over Neo and Arc?
The Free official Sony-Emulator, PLaystation pocket app and a free game to boot (Crash bandicute)
Big Note: For you to "TRY" and enable On-screen controls,go To SD/Android/Data/sony.playstation.com.NCEA00344_1 ,find and navigate to "UCC folder" AFTER you installed updates on your phone! (if not possible to update the game,i will give you the zpak)
IN the "UCC" folder there are 2 files metadata.xml and preferences.xml
preferences.xml can be edited with a web editor,all you have to do is put them to true/false and save it
Another nice app? Wave Lite Wallpapers (PS3) and PSP screen!
*Not sure about this app and how its gonna work on X10: But there is a nice Launcher for Optimized XPlay games (like dead space,age of zombies),ITs called Xperia Play.
CANT install APPS?
If you are trying to install it by simply pressing install, that will not work, you would have to use either ADB, Terminal Emulator, or push it in the system with an update.zip
Yeah, why not? Do this my friend
Yes it will be great
If there is anything i missed in the system dump,please report
unspecified path.. urgh.. it downloaded just fine.. jeez...
E: coz i only need individual apps..
thank you, but i have a question
how do i move these items over to use on my verizon xperia play? i want timescape ui, but it wont install on my phone. can you help me out?
Am I right that this fw is the only one with automatic brightness in the settings?
Could this be ported to X10?

try moving the system apps to system/app, maybe that will work? or if not then you would have to use either ADB, Terminal Emulator, or push it in the system with an update.zip

Hi guys,
I have asked for someone to port the new Portrait retouch camera app from latest Xperia Z3 update but no one did it
So now I did it but it doesn't work for me because it needs root and Superuser mod but now I'm sharing it even if it doesn't work for me
If someone can test it or to make it without root it will be better
With my best regards.
Uploading now

No buddy, the apps that make this works need root because they need to be installed directly on system.

Even you rooted you still can't use it because of Sony signature check in services.jar, you have to remove it (superuser mod) to can cross-device.
The app u provided doesn't contain any lib and dalvik arm. How to make it work without it?

On Lollipop you don't need a modified services.jar or Super user mode by the xposed module, since lollipop came out i made a flashable .zip with the apps that make portrait retouch work on the Z2, check it out here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro...t-portrait-retouch-backup-restore-z3-t3060292

sorry but actually i dont think its possible to make a no-root version of this specific app , this is a sort of addon that integrate the original systemui app like the other apk inside the overlay folder...
@Alex_rac I know you do not want to change the orginal version of Sony, but a modified version with rounded button in Material Design will be great too without changing the IUSystem.apk

Tried decompiling the apk using Advanced APKTool with Lollipop support.
Can't find anything related to it's resources, just 2 xml files which more or less contained bool values.
Not sure if that's the proper way to decompile the apk.
Here is flashable zip, you can install it via recovery. Based on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60124426&postcount=1

because this app act like a token that enable the button inside the systemui (so to have a round version of the button we need to mod the systemui.apk )

This mod is developed by @venkat kamesh.. You are sharing his work without giving him credit.. Moreover, I think without asking his permission.. That's not good.. You are sharing his hard worked developed project without giving him any credit at all and also by mirroring files..!!

First I did not know and explain it back messages .
Personally I knew only the thread "share you kcal settings" and never found on xda for Xperia Z2 something that would serve me to install it on my smartphone , so once I got believes this thread to help people like me who know how to install it in its Xperia Z2 , that's all. Sorry for my english.
thank you @alone_in_dark for tagging me here in thread
Good day @juliheavy.
It seems @venkat kamesh has been decent enough in trying to settle your using of his work. As you have decided not to add him in your credits, nor ask permission for his work (as stated in his OP), your thread has been closed.
Should you have any questions please send me a PM
Thank you.
Good morning all!
I am a developer from the Xperia L forums.Recently,I created a mini Z5 ROM and other stuff for all devices!Well,I haven't tested it on any device other than the Xperia L yet but I think it will work!That is why I request for testers to test these.Here are some things I have created.
-Z5 mini ROM[Slot taken by @Alex_Gamer]
-Z5 InCallUi and dialer
-Z5 small Apps widget
-Z3+ clock widget
-Sony smart social camera widget & addon apps.(No main camera!)
-Google apps special version
Known issues
-Z5 mini ROM:Some quick setting tiles not working.Xloud audio settings not working.
-smart social camera widget:socialife app and timeshift burst not working.
Rest are working(at least on my XL)
Minimum requirements to be a tester:
-PATIENCE AND FREE TIME
-Knowledge on smali coding,jar and apk editing.(For Z5 InCallUi and small apps testers only)
-Basic bootloop recovery knowledge (in case)
-A working brain and Android testing skills
-An Xperia SP phone with CM12.1 nightlies
Hurry!Only 3 vaccancies available!Those interested send me a PM and in it,please tell me if you fulfil the criteria set.Thank you all!I hope to get some testers![emoji14]
*PROJECT DISCONTINUED DUE TO MY DETERIORATING HEALTH CONDITION AND LACK OF PUBLIC INTEREST.I AM ALSO RETIRING FROM XDA DEVELOPERS.*

I understand Bro,but here's the catch.There is no one framework-res.apk which works on all devices.Thus,these changes to the apk and framework.jar file have To be made.Wait a minute,I can make things convenient for you.I will help you extract the framework from stryflex and make it a flashable zip then,you flash it through your recovery and help me test.How about that?
