Is the Bravia Engine all that?

Here is a video explaining the Sony Bravia Engine
http://www.sony.co.uk/hub/lcd-television/latest/article/id/1237477952647
And this is the Mobile Bravia
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B14Rle4s6tI
Has anyone compared the video recorded from the Xpera T phone on another android device and is there a significant difference in video quality?
Is there any way to make the phone transcode the video into a bravia quality version of the video being played?

Brava Engine is just an overlay. You only get the effects of it on an Xperia device with locked boatloader using the stock movies/album app.
If you transfer the video to a non Xperia device the effect is not there.

Software or hardware?

You can't even use it with unlocked boatloader I think, so porting it might be hard.

Nope has been done even to other devices so...

On my x10 and neo it was avaialble on custom roms based on stock and I had unlocked my bootloader. so I imagine it can beported to stock based roms here.

Does it work with Netflix? Or does it only work with Sony Album/Movie apps?

Only with those. About boatloader unlock, this is ever since the nxt series, on 2011 you can have unlocked boatloader and Bravia.
Maybe someone could port the Bravia from 2011 Xperias for unlocked t.

[Q] doomkernel 0.9 xperia z flash fails

Tried to flash doomkernel 0.9 http://bit.ly/12cotzD from this thread: (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2172888) in recovery mode with xperia z android 4.2.2. at first it seemed to work, but after starting my xperia z - nothing happend - black screen. no boot.
i tried it 4 times with CWM 6.0.3.2 and TWRP 2.5.0.0 (xz dual recovery) - everytime the same result. copied the zip file on sdcard0 before.
flashtools said that the phone is in flash mode. so i flashed with flashtools the 423 firmware. it just restored the kernel (i think), because the progress was much faster than flashing the phone completly. so it was no full wipe.
after that the phone worked again - but without doomkernel. dual recovery and all othere things were still there.
can anyone tell me why it´s not possible to flash the kernel with my xperia z?????????????

Do you have unlocked bootloader?

Doom kernel is only for unlocked bootloader,if you are planning to unlock it,backup your TA partition before unlocking,it will help you to restore your drm keys when needed.

A relock should be enough,
TA is only for bravia engine.

You can tell me why relock bootloader on flashtool if it makes no difference ???

xperia z1 waranty after BL unlock and relock

simple question: did someone send his/her xperia z1 to sony to repair something after he unlocked (and relocked, ta backup etc) this bootloader? can sony notice if the bootloader was unlocked?

If you unlocked the bootloader and didn't relock it, Sony can see the bootloader is open.
If you did TA backup and restore it for close the bootloader, Sony won't see it.

I don't think Sony saves the IMEI. It's just for create the unlock code.
