I watched a video of a guy rooting his Xperia z and noticed he had a live walpaper that moved like the Playstation.
Does anyone know where I could find this? I tried looking in the play store with no luck.

Hello!!!!!
I finally got the OTA update in my country so what do you think guys? I got some questions here:
1- I update my device or wait for the next version?
2- im now rooted with dual recovery. I know i will lose the dual recovery but if i checked the survival mode in superSU app do i keep the root after the update?
Now i running existenZ 6.6.0 based on stock Rom with stock kernel (maybe?) and locked bootloader!
3- do i brick my device if updated now if im running this rom?
Please answer fast bcz i cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!:silly:
Thanks
All the best!
The OTA will fail, because it checks that /system isn't modified before updating. That check will fail because you're using a custom rom.

As @kingvortex said the update will fail as the system has been modified.
you will have to manually flash the ftf

I'm sorry, but that is a really irresponsible thing to suggest.
To anybody reading this thread and thinking of trying that : NEVER do this. You can possibly hard brick your device if you disconnect it when Flashtool is writing to it.

If you knew that, then you should have warned them before suggesting it.
If they had bricked their phone, who would pay for a new one? You?
People come here and ask questions because they trust the people here to give proper advice, not guess work and dangerous procedures.

A soft brick is recoverable most of the time and not a huge problem. The worst that usually happens is that you have to wipe the phone and lose your data.
A hard brick means the end and an expensive repair or a new device. If that had happened, then what? You would say sorry and move on while they would be left with a dead phone.
Just be careful what you advise people to do, that's all I'm saying. People ask here because they don't know about these things and the risks involved.

x10 and XZ are different models don't experiment.
Download your phone models firmware and flash
Please use SUS/Emma if flashtool does not resolve your issue
suggest you to take it to a service center instead of hard bricking the phone if all methods fail
I'm perfectly calm. Just responding to him trying to justify what was a dangerous piece of advice.

maybe it's a revision. I believe it has to do with the numbers after the firmware number .230 R1A, R2D, etc.

Even I got a 2 mb update with description as .230
Same here even I got the update. It seems better scrolling between multiple apps seems good.

If ROOTING your device with towelroot is fine so don't try anything else to ROOT again because you may get bad things you don't want to see

Just try it yourself already!
The Xposed framework works without issue on our device, so just install it and the rootcloak module and you'll find out if it works for the app you're having trouble with.

There was only that one app that won't work with root, all my others work with root so couldn't check it
So, month or so ago, I got Xperia Z from my brother. At that time it was on 4.2.2, so I flashed Generic 4.4.2 ftf on it right away. What I noticed is that "about" says that phone model is C6603, which is LTE model, but as I remember it was C6602, which is regular model. Also on the lower part of the phone there is printer that its C6602 and today I also checked Imei, which again says it's C6602. So what happened? Which model it really is? Did flashing wrong rom did anything or is it dangerous for phone in any way?
P.S. There is no LTE in my country so I can't test it.
