hi there,
just came over to the z from xmp and arc and was wondering if there is a above mentioned system ui available? I like it much more then the Sony one, so if someone can point me there or port out, would be cool, thanks in advance

Hi All,
I've been switching roms since I got my Z (bundled with a BE Proximus contract for 1€, yeay) but so far I keep reverting back to the stock ROM.
There are still some issues with most CM based ROMS (eg. audio bug when switching to speakerphone) and I really like the Sony camera app for it's image quality and speedy burst mode.
On the other hand: the DPI size of the UI is terrible, the app icons are soo huge and there's no way to customize how big you want things to appear on this amazing 1920x1080 screen. I tried with the xposed framework to set custom dpi's as seen in the Paranoid rom / PAC rom, but the original launcher can't handle this properly: it sticks to 4 column grid and positions things completely wrong. Also the lockscreen sliders are not scaled as well, the Phone app looks messed up, in short, it looks terrible as soon as you want any of the Sony apps to be using a different dpi. You can adjust other apps like Gmail or the Play store though.
Since Sony released an AOSP project for the Xperia Tablet Z as well, I wonder if it would be possible to use the official firmware for the Xperia Tablet Z on the Xperia Z.
Has anyone any ideas how to investigate this? I'm definitely willing to spend some time on this one, I'd love to see my phone's amazing screen being used as a Tablet Z whilst still using the same camera and other Sony optimizations.
Kind regards,
Erik
Xperia Z has it's own official AOSP project http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2297927
Lots if things don't work though due to closed source proprietary drivers and there's not really much Sony can do about that.
Ok, I understand that the AOSP projects are far from finished. So my question should be then: is it possible to install a FTF file for the Xperia Tablet Z on the Xperia Z? So we could have the Xperia Tablet Z features on the Xperia Z?
Kind regards,
Erik
No, if flashtool allows flashing it at best it wouldn't boot, at worst it would brick your XZ. Which features specifically do you want from the XTZ?
Hey guys
I was wondering how and where to download new skins for the default XPeria keyboard. I only have three skins on my XPeria Z and I would like to have more (like an Ios 7 skin for instance). Is that possible ?
Thanks
I guess it might be impossible.
Will anybody be able to port this ultra pixel feature onto our xperia z?

Hi guys I'm a guy with Z1 and i'm leaving home (for study) soon. I hope to improve my mother's XV before i leave.....
There's pretty lots of Z3 port for 4.4 devices and I hope to know if there's any for Xperia V with stock based 4.3 firmware, especially for the lockscreen and launcher.
Thanks
The lockscreen is the same as Z2 one. For the launcher check this out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2868655
Also make sure to have a look at the forum this thread is located in (Cross-Device Development)
You will find everything you are looking for.
There is also a guide to port Z2 lockscreen.
