How are support of custom rom for Sony devices and snapdragom 800?
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda app-developers app
We need to wait till the bootloader gets fixed, as if you unlock your bootloader you loose your camera and some other important stuff. And to install a custom rom we need an unlocked bootloader. This is why it's so important to read as much as you can, and backup everything. I have a feeling it could be weeks or a couple of months before we see more custom roms. I'm not a dev myself but if you see a dev asking for donations remember to help out if you can. Or at least say thanks

Boot loader is only for kernel? I'm wrong?

You need it unlocked to install custom roms via the recovery menu, otherwise your stuck with official roms.

To be honest I don't think it'll be that long. Maybe a week or 2 at max. Sony is really trying to encourage developers to buy their devices and develop for it. Because of this reason I don't see how it would take months for them to fix this problem. If they would do that they would destroy their developer friendly imago in the Android scene I think.
You will get cm but let's wait for sony to fix the camera issue after unlock

I see already have some roms, cm 10.2 already out, really good.

I will try. First of all if you have plans on installing custom ROMs on the HTC One you will need to read guides and tutorials. I said that because I owned a Xperia Z and I found that it's a lot easier to modify. HTC needs to have a unlocked bootloader before you can root it or flash any custom ROM.
You can start here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2119 in that section you will find guides and tutorials. This one a very very handy guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265618
If there's anything more specific you like to know just ask away and a lot forum members will be glad to help and voice their opinion.
I advice to stay stock, and when you've read and learn guide and how to mod the one, you can change rom, flash rom and other
I'm not a big fan of unlocking boot loader I thought I would stick to stock are there any problems or bugs one should be aware of?

No...
So, maybe you don't love htc gallery or some stuff
I think I'll stay stock and maybe with enough experience apply mods or new roms . are you all satisfied with the phone?

Without root is nice, with root and custom rom/kernel, is awesome.

No, just flash.
If you want once a custom ROM/Kernel it would be good that you make a backup of your TA before unlocking bootloader.
Edit: if you want root, there is a stock based custom ROM with root and recovery(for 4.3).

I noticed that also. A normal thread name is really not like that. A thread name says in some short words the problem. Example: bricked phone says much more then only i have a problem. That is the sense of a thread name

Just look in the title for [LB], or if it's based off stock Sony FW it should work.
You'll find all roms for locked bl in the development section.. Original android dev is for custom roms. Go explore. It's not a hard job. Plus there aren't many. Just a few brilliant ones.have fun. :thumbup::thumbup:

Hi everyone,
This is my first time posting so sorry if it is in the wrong place
I have got an xperia z and I decided to change over to cyanogen mod. I the got rid of that and flashed across a stock rom which works fine however it is telling me that I have an update ready but the update center won't do the update because it tells me I have a custom rom so does anyone know how to return it to how it was when it came out of the box?
Many thanks in advance

Relock your bootloader if you want to receive updates officially. Flashtool can do it in BLU mode.

When facing with this problems, it is recommenddd to immediately flash stock firmware upon shutdown of device. Use flashtool and flash ur device's stock firmware to your device quickly

Which Williams kernel? Cm ones cannot be used on existenz

I 100% guarantee it was the stock based kernel. Anyways, as it is still early in the morning here, I am just gonna write down some steps here. 1. Flash CWM for locked bootloader
2. Restore previous backup
3.See if it works?
4. Factory reset if it works
5. See if bootloader unlock allowed changed from yes to no and if yes unlock bootloader
6. Flash existenzultra
