Just a Quick Question!

If I flash CM9 (link) with CWM can I switch back to CM7 by flashing with CWM, for example can i switch back to the MiniMod X ROM(link)?

Yes you can but before and after installation wipe data and cache it's better for your phone and finally dont forget to make a nandroid backup

Yes. CWM stays intact. If that is what you are afraid of.
You can switch between roms any number of times

Xperia z1 custom rom, and camera work?

Hi, I want to get rom RomAur v3.3 , so I do like in "HOW TO INSTALL" but when I backup TA after unlocking bootloader I can't install doom kernel, but when I backup Ta after install kernel get black screen. So when I have to backup TA?
Greetings

To late, you backup ta before you unlock the bootloader. Now you have permanently broken your camera.

Sorry for my bad english - I didnt write it well enough. I mean I do Backup TA before unlock bootloader, and it works. When I get black screen and brick, I flash orginal rom and camera works. But I don't know when I should backup ta - after install custom rom or kernel?

You only need one backup, the one you made before unlocking the bootloader,.
If you mean when do you restore it, then you don't if you want to use the custom kernel as restoring the backup will relock your bootloader and mean your device wont boot if you have a custom kernel installed

You backup before anything, so before unlocking. And you only unlock if you want to install a custom rom (AOSP or so) or kernel. You don't need to for flashing the FTF files or roms based on those. You restore if you want to actually use the camera, but then you can not install custom (AOSP or so) roms or kernels anymore.

"1 - Installed oficial firmware 14.1.G.1.534
2 - Root your device KingoApp root
3 - Backup TA
4 - Unlock bootloader - http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/
At the moment, unlocking the Xperia Z1 boot loader will stop the camera functionality
5 - Copy rom to ext sdcard
6 - Install DooMLoRD kernel to get CWM recovery
7 - Enter to recovery
8 - Make sure to do a Wipe data/factory reset , Wipe cache / dalvik cache before installing ROM
9 - Install rom
10 - Reboot system"
When I do all these things, I need just to restore backup? And I'll have RomAur v3.3 and camera working?

No, firstly there is no need to unlock the bootloader to install that rom, and secondly unlocking the bootloader breaks the camera

Flash a kernel with twrp in it and then boot to recovery and restore the backup
