Hi guys i'm quite new to z1 and I'm looking for a .290 based rom, which one will u guys recommend me??
I'm looking for high performance, deodex, and maybe some cool tweak. Hope i can remain the original interface since it looks cool enough for me
I dont care about battery life for now since it's enough.
Thankyou
(incase u guys think that i'm lazy to test each of them myself, yeah i admit i am :laugh: , but hope if u can give me recommendation for a start )
read dev section. flashing is not that easy.
there are not many roms, choose from nuts, monx or ihackers.
As the Sony Xperia Z1 is kind-of-new, there aren't too many ROMs for it. Devs are working on some issues about unlocking bootloader and firmwares. I suggest waiting for them to do their job, cheer them up and consider make a donation. In my case I'm looking forward to use MIUI on my Xperia Z1.
It's all a matter of preference.
I've got Doomkernel installed and I'm constantly switching between monx and ihackers roms.
There are bits I like from each of them that the other doesn't have.Still haven't decided which one to settle on just yet.
As suggested, best way is to just flash, use it and flash again and find one that you like.

The best combo for me is: Stock .290 rom, rooted with Doom kernel v.6 (unlocked bootloader) and use Xposed with Gravity Box
Thanks guy
and i'm not 100% noob
got experience with Xperia S before
i'm using the jellyslim rom, the guy did a really great job, first 4.3 rom i can use without problems and lags.
it's not deodexed for now, but the dev said he will release and deodexed version soon.
other than that the rom is perfect.
It's a new device so recommend a rom at the moment it's not recommended. :laugh:
Been using Monx's rom since the off with the 4.4 launcher from the Nexus and it's superb, no problems at all.

Pretty much all the roms with LB in the title that have recent activity are excellent.
CRISKELO : if you like blacked out themes youll love this one. Its smooth, tons of options built in, and looks gorgeous.
Rom Aur: Ditto above. If you like stock but just want it a little faster and more flexible this is the way to go.
MONX/EXISTENZ : If you like the new honami looks (light themed) and/or really want to plah with the honami apps these are the guys for you.
Hi guys.
I've just got my Z1, coming from a Nexus 5 (great phone, just fancied trying something a bit classier.) I guess that my question is a simple one: I rooted and installed a custom ROM on the N5 almost immediately. The ROMs and kernels available for it made a real difference, especially with regards to battery life. Thing is, the Z1's battery, performance and obviously camera on stock 4.4.2 already outperforms the N5 with my favourite custom ROM/kernel combination. With this in mind, would you recommend rooting and installed a custom ROM on the Z1?
Thanks in advance.

If you are content with how stock is then just stay with it but if you feel like its lacking in some parts and could be better with custom roms, go ahead. I always root mine btw, just to debloat it.

Thanks for the reply. The Z1 is a lovely phone. Very fast, with a great battery. I've just discovered that an alpha build of PA has just been posted for the Z1, so I may have to root/ unlock to have a play!

Aight man. Just make sure to backup your ta before unlocking and you're good to go :good:
Root on the Z1 is a matter of Life, it cannot be without it. For Custom Roms depends of the user needs. Z1 Stock 4.3 Rom actually working very well, nothing to say.
Hi there people!
My name is Andreas from Germany and I just sold my Xperia S for a ZL. For the last few months I was stuck with combo of Nature Xperia Rom and Doom Kernel cause of incredible battery Life. Now Ive opened up my BL and wondered what ROM/Kernel Combo to choose for ZL since Ive found no real advice in the threads. Even If its worth trying KK Rom instead of 4.3 based?!?!
Any Advices?? Thank You!
Hey German Dude, I think this thread match better with the q&a forum
You have to find your own best Rom yourself, someone like stock because Bravia and remote, some like cm because the customisation options and always stay latest android. Since you have unlocked bootloader you can try every rom you can found here in zl section.
I'am a flashaholic, I flash new rom near every 5 days.
If you need help, don't be shy and ask
Regards SafiXS

Hey German Dude,
Kai here
The best 4.4 ROMs in my eyes are carbon & Luiquidsmooth.
CM has regular updates, lineup Linaro mod CM is supposed to be extremely optimised on the hardware, maybe it's the best way to go.
I am waiting (and hoping) for Sailfish OS and currently using simple CyanogenMod 10.2 (android 4.3). It's really easy going. Fast, smooth, stable, statisfying
Greetings

For stock experience try eXistenZ by niaboc79 with 78Kernel by Gustavo RD78. Very good battery life.
Doom Kernel didn't work properly for me.

Bro Adding to the same topic. I wanna use Kitkat ROM. Will be unlocking bootloader soon. Which is stable most and faster ROM CM or CM bases. and I have another question Xperia Camera features are great. so what would you guys suggest. i have been used to rooting and all that stuffs. so is it worth changing ROM from Stock to CM. only two things are stopping me IR and Camera . now that IR is working with some App on CM. Im really confused
hi all,
i js have a simple question....
i dont wana mess a lot with my xperia sp though i can install cm11 latest
once i installed it ,my phone signal n imei gone,bt then i reinstall my stock rom and it came back n worked fine
now all knows that ther is some lag in xperia sp 4.3 update
so wat u suggest guys......
i am a lil negative abt custom rom bcoz sony has a lot features like stamina,glove n all,
well i dunno that much so i ask u guys, tell me if cm is best for me then first of all ..how to install it.
and if stock works good them send me a link of modded stock rom so i wont get any lag.
well i hv to tell u that i can do evey thing to get smoothness on the fone,if cm11 is smooth tell me eays to get gloce mod n stamina with this too.
plz no suggestions for any other custom rom. only cm11 or stock rom will be appreciated .
These kind of threads are not really allowed here
But to answer:
ExistenZe is a good Stock Based Custom ROM...
I still use fully Stock and I have no issues whatsoever
~~ Regards
why u only want to try cm11 or stock?
PA and PAC are faster than cm and u get great battery life.
Im right now on PA and I tried cm11 many time but it always lag.
if u want a fast stock based rom, then try eXistenZ Ultra.

Hello,
First sorry for my bad english
I love the 4.1 stock look of SONY and the "fluidity" (I don't think it's the right word xD) of the stock 4.1, but i love new features of new 4.4.4 ROM (On LBL) so i've try to make it myself but it's too BIG!! DEVS are so STRONG LOL!!!! it' not for me.
So i ask to dev if some one can make it... PLEASEEE! xD
I'm quite sure noone will do so.
There are already quite allot of ROMs available.
Just try a few out and see which one suits you best.
