I have recently come across this great Sound Mod for Xperia Z by ZeroInfinity:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2190558
I decided to try and wow... it just works!!!
The Sound is truly amazing. Even better that the walkman bug (which stop after one song when you use headphone and screen off) has also gone!
It makes me very happy and want to recommend to everyone here! Try it and see!
Highly recommended!!! :good::good::good:
---------
Edit 1: For version 9: the full version does not work for Xperia T, only Lite-Universal version does.
---------
Edit 2: Version 10.1 has come out. Full version works well with XT, using stock-based custom rom and Doomkernel-V04. Great sound!
---------
Edit 3: Version 10.1 is confirmed to work well with XV.
---------
Edit 4: Version 11 is out. Tested fully working with XT! Very good Sound!!!:good::good::good:
Edit 5: Version 12 is out. Tested fully working with T running stock-based custom rom firmware .492. Among the three sub-version I find 44.1/16 version to be the best. Much improved sound compared to 11. The sound is now more clean and original with 44.1 kHz! :good::good::good::good::good:
Edit 6: tested Version 12 with new firmware .140. It is buggy, cause freeze for some unknown reason. If you like this Sound then should stick with rom with older firmware .492.
Edit 7: Tested version 13 with firmware 489/492 (Curiosity 2.4 and Hybrid Stock/CM 1.2) working well and very good sound! Still, with firmware .140 it causes freeze when receiving calls.
Edit 8: PureX version 14 has come out. Tested working fine with firmware 489/492 and really really good sound. Firmware .140 is again not working with this version.
My ranking of the audio quality: Number 1 is Version 12 (44.1) Cheers.
Note on flash: Need to mount system first before flash the .zip file.
: its not flashing for me

The full version works perfectly on Xperia V. I've been using it since v5.
I'm on KXP milestone4-r3 CM10. Not sure about stock.

The full version will flash sucessfully but you wont get all the features working correctly as some of the files will only work on the Z. You will get exactly the same working features as the lite version but with a load of extra files that are not really doing much for you...

Well I'm experiencing an obvious boost in sound quality (Clarity, treble and bass). After updating to v9 from v7, I also noticed the SRS bass boost effect (supposedly not in the lite version) which was implemented in v8. Not sure if volumes are affected or not though. Never really had a problem with the default volumes.
And before you say it, no, it is not placebo.

I am not saying it is placebo, 99% of the mod will work...
Here is what zeroinfinity said to me in a PM
This is the LITE Edition of PureXAudio, the reason why I use LITE versions for every port of this mod is that the mod has files which are only compatible for Xperia Z, I have removed all the files which will not work on other devices.
Stuff you won't have are:
192kHz audio playback (It is very rare for a phone to support this sampling rate)
SRS Enabled (snd_soc_msm_2x_Fusion3 file only works on Xperia Z, using it on others causes non boot)
LOUD Volume (Again, same reason above)
but you will have everything else
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I am just going of his word for it, after all, he made it...
The chip in XV is newer than in XT and more closer to XZ, so it is likely that full version will work with it.
For XT full version can sometime work but not stable. I have tried to push the key music file from XZ (semmusic.apk ; soundenhancement.apk and musicfx.apk) to XT and then flash full version. It works for some time with extremely loud sound (although nice) and can see all feature in the equalizer. Still, after sometime Walkman stop working and freeze when never using music player.
Lite version effect is hard to notice, not quite sure if and how much effect.
cheers,
I can not flash the full version, the files don't want to install on my LT25i when I look later with root explorer, its not there :crying:
What am I doing wrong?
I have locked bootloader but root and the CWM here from the Xperia T/TL/V forum.
I want more loud in my Walkman
You need to mount system first, then flash the zip. And make sure to back up system so that you can go back when things go wrong.
There is a new version out 10.1. Tried again with it, and to my surprise it works perfectly with all functions. I am using stock-based Curiosity 2.4.
Not sure if it last long but for now everything is perfect with wonderful sound!:victory:
Go for it! :good:

Good to know you also have it works! I also noticed volume in this version is low, but the sound is really very nice. For XT DoomKernel allows increase volume a bit. For XV I am not sure there is a solution. I guess ZeroInfinity will increase volume in the next version! cheers.

Really thanks i was thinking about this useful miniapp! Thanks really i was jealous of Samsung just for this thing! Now its thousand times better!
Sadly it doesnt work on my Xperia Z with 4.3.. getting parsing error when trying to run the apk
In my recent apps I already got like two close icons in each top corner, one closes all apps except the one opened and the other one closes everything. It's the same right?
Was like that in my ExistenZ 4.3
Sounds good, kill bg task without root. try it.
Works with stock 4.3 thanks

Hi there!
I recently bought an Xperia SP and had it unlocked fully so now i can use any SIM.
But it seems that there is a problem: my phone is slow. I only have a handful of apps installed, nothing is programmed or working in the background or Sync is turned off.
I checked the OS and it is still stuck to Android 4.1.2 but the official Sony Mobile website says the latest is 4.3.
Is there an app to help speed up my phone?
Why is my phone not detecting the 4.3 update?
Please advice. Thanks.

Search google for Sony XPERIA SP C5303 - Android 4.3 - firmware 12.1.A.0.266. The site is called xperia firmware (i would post the link but im not allowed. Once the phone is updated you may need to restart the phone like i did to get up to speed (mine was incredibly slow after first boot)

Oh yess i'm confused :fingers-crossed: however before the upgrade it is another thing
Maybe just reflash the firmware and see if it gets better (4.1.2, as 4.3 has a big chance of bad RAM management)
It seems like there is also bad information dessimination by Sony Mobile by the looks of it.
Sony is preparing new update for our device...

It shouldn't though. There custom ROMs which work on the TX (Android 4.4.4) and that don't come with Sony's bloated OS/Apps.
Then it's time i suppose to start theming an AOSP rom :victory:

Sure.
Comliled with O3 flags as well, means its much more smooth than any stock rom.
I will include a complete Z2 framework port, as well as all AOSP apps either themed to look like Sony ones or replaced with original Z2 ports.
However, performance and stability have maximum priority for me, so I will only add bugfree Xperia apps and retain ART compatibility.
Working around 90 hours on this project now, but now there are only two more apps to be themed and I'll release it.
You'll like it guys
EDIT: Check next page for some screenshots
Check these images to get a taste of what is about to come.
Lets change to custom rom.
Sent from my LT25i using XDA Free mobile app
We have custom roms with KitKat, and soon to be modified acquiring Sony interface, but is only themed
They are not the original flavor of Sony Kitkat Roms
But is it, to have nothing
I am very sad really
And to think that my Xperia neo has the true interface from Xperia Z2 with KitKat ....

This camera stuff will bloat the rom unnecessarily and break ART compatibility in addition. I'll not include it by default, nor any of the other "nice to have" apps like Sketch etc.
You may however flash any of the ported Z2 stuff that runs on other AOSP roms (there are enough flashable zips around)..
I will then include an index in my rom thread with working media app packages (based on user reports) and let all of you choose what they want.. Performance or a little more stock rom feeling.
And about Z2 lockscreen.. Tried it, but it seems to be incompatible with Omni. If there is enough interest in my rom I'll put more time into this project.
Might even try to add Z2 SmallApps and taskswitcher. :good:

Yes it has been removed. And it was kinda expected. If u look at the Z2 and Z3 kitkat stock roms, they also didn't have "Battery test".
