ok i will it :good:
but sorry, is there a difference when I come from the 4.3 rom ? then flash stock based rom 4.4.2

I've got an issue with the BMW bluetooth since the 4.3 update. I have read it happens in several car models such as Opel. I think is a change in Android btooth stack. Is there a way to fix it without downgrading to 4.2.2? Can I downgrade from kk to 4.2.2 directly? Thanks in advance

Hi There,
seems that a found as well a BMW <=>XperiaZ <=> 4.4.2 friend
I had as well some troubles there.
In My F30 - connected drive - I was able to read my e-mails in the car screen, and was able to do a lot of work here.
But after that, this feature was not longer avaialble, and at the moment I beleive it's related on some sharpened Exchange Server policies , which were able to be installed with this update.
This still is true, but I ma still investigation on some Mail.apk/Email.APK, SEMCEmail.apkand Exchange2.Apk with changed/modified administartor handling.
What I as well found out, is that the blootooth pairing and the features with SMS reading, updating the phonebook worked not perfectly.
What I did,I deleted the blootooth connection on both, phone and car, and renamed the Xperia, started a totally new coupling, and it is fine now.
Except the mail Interface. I totally understand, that a company wnat's to save the data, but at least for my private account it should work, which is not the case.
Do you have (still have) other problems.

same bro, I found the solution by pressing the throw button then press disconnect and connect again and everything went normal, but it still made me uncomfortable, hopefully there is an improvement on the A2DP Bluetooth connection 4.4.2

BMW E88, 4.4.2 I guess what you mean by renaming is the name of the phone's Btooth obviously. I will try today if there is some success. I couldn't get the phonebook, calls to sync and when entering a call could not answer from wheeldrive or IDrive, just the phone

No luck in renaming, I downgraded to 4.2.2 with success. Everything works properly: syncs contacts asking for phonebook, syncs missed calls... No weird things. But obviously the best solution it's not to be in jelly bean. Do you agree?

Please help ! First time android user. need help with xperia z!

Please make a clean installation of 4.4.4 or do a factory reset and you will solve your problems. For rooting you can use kingvortex method on general section. For custom roms use search box or google it, you can try several roms and than decide what is the best for you. Cheers.

Lol no problem
Btw.. The heating problem is pretty normal thing for this device. Try to use CPU temp apps in play store. If the CPU temp above 70°C so it's not normal...

:laugh:
I'm not scaring you! Just warning you
The most 2 think you should never ever try or think about them is: flashing other device's kernel. Like flashing other Xperia or Samsung kernel on your device
And the same thing with the ROMs
Those things can hard brick your device. And you will never get it back... So don't try them!
The wrong mods of other devices or ROMs can soft brick your device. This can easily fixed but you will loose your data...
And good thing! You can use any C6602 mods kernels ROMs on C6603 and vice versa
And here is a link for KitKat FTF http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/general/stock-rom-xperia-z-c6603-android-4-4-4-t2871851

So, the thing is if you installed some other ROM but you did not liked it and want to revert back to your original ROM you can always restore your ROM only if you had backed up your ROM. Incase if your backed up ROM doesnot restore or you don't have a backup than you use flashtool to install the original version of your ROM. But there is one thing, your guarantee is already broken if you used flashtool or even if you install the other ROM and you don't have the original ROM that came up with your mobile.
Those files are just the original firmwares that developers have downloaded with PC companion and made the ftf file with Flashtool, so that it will be easy to install using flashtool.
So, if your mobile has the original ROM and you have not done anything then always update via your PC Companion or from Settings>>About Phone>>Software update.
For other people they cannot update from that method because they are not allowed due to many reasons and they need those ftf files from the link that you stated.

ok great thanks for your reply...I'm waiting for the phone to arrive (maybe tomorrow) would like to root straight away
whats the best way to go about this ...Unlock the boot loader and then use one of the rooting methods? probably stay with a stock rom to start just to get the hang of the phone .
Been flashing roms on my other phones for ages Galaxy S2 and S3 i9305

[Q] Xperia Z touch screen issue on 4.4.4

After upgrading to 4.4.4, I have experienced some touch screen issue, when I turn on the screen, the touch screen is not working, I cannot even unlock my phone. Only if I turn the screen off and on a few times, the screen will go back to normal. I have already done a factory reset but seems the problem still exists.
This problem does not exist in previous Rom versions.
Can anyone help for this issue?
