How do i know which roms are compatible with the C6606? I tried flashing something once and i ended up bricked.
Would i NEED to unlock the bootloader to be able to install any mods/roms to it?
Every Rom from the Official Android Development forums need unlocked bootloader.
Try first rooting it with doomlords kit, then fire up XZDualRecovery, and finally install Monxdified from the Android Development forum. Don't know if it works, but it should. But you should know this will remove the T-mobile features like wifi call and so on

Well i had it rooted and i had CWM installed. The only thing I wanted to flash was the sound mod, but after installing it was stuck in a bootloop.
So would I need XZDualRecovery to install the soundmod?
Which sound mod Did you wanted to install? You only need a Recovery for installing mods.
I recommend you to install Viper4Android Fx edition. It's the best Soundmod i can find.
Just google for Viper4Android look how to install. At driver install you have to choose Cortex A8 with Neon
Maybe your mod wasn't compatible with the C6606

I recently got a C6606 T-Mobile branded Xperia Z. It is network unlocked though I am on T-Mobile. It is running the 10.3.1.E.0.191 Android 4.2.2 factory ROM.
Got a couple questions.
Firstly, I would love to root it. Nothing seems to be working. From my reading rooting this ROM is hit or miss. Any tips?
Second, I am assuming the stock ROM is odexed.
I would also like a camera app or addon that will give me full manual mode on the camera. Any out there that will work on a stock ROM?
If I change my customization to that of the international C6603 and install a 4.3 ROM will I lose the LTE and have to use the *#*#INFO#*#* menu to re-enable it or will I be SOL?
Any good guides on installing ROMs? Can I install a custom ROM with a locked bootloader?
Hi.
I updated to iHackers v4.1 from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2716182
Everything works fine. Root is still on my Z1. Wonderful.
But my Cam does not focussing :/
The Notes says:
In case someone runs into Camera Issues, Flash the Full Kitkat FTF first and then Install the ROM.
If i klick the Link, there are so many Files and i dont know which i should take.
Which Version? 757?
Which Provider? No Matter what, unbranded or for my Proivider: Vodafone DE
Do i lost my Root?
My Z1 is set nearly perfeclty.
Is there a solution to fix the camera problem without losing root?
My Bootloader is unlocked.
And i dont know how to know which Baseband Version i have
I see only:
Baseband-Version

s5 rom to s3
Hy. Y flashed the rom on my i9305 and y had to reflash and then only I made the camera work flashing boefla.ok. but. Screen mirroring doesn't work apps to sd card the same and neither samsung link wont work. Are you trying to fix these? The rom is good. I have no complaints other that sometimes its eating the battery in5 hours. Thank's
S5 Elite for S3 (i9305) problem.
Greetings,
Today I was charging my S3 (i9305) and turned off the power. I later discovered that my phone was still on even though I had turned it off. I found out that when charging my phone with the power off it rebooted my phone. I don't know if it's a problem with the Rom or phone. Help would be appreciated. (I have attached a picture of what my phone gets stuck on before it reboots). Thanks.

Hi,
Im not sure but maybe this is the old bootloader issue..are you on new or old bootloader? and have you installed agni kernel that comes by default with the rom? cause i thought that the reboot issue only was present in the boeffla kernels for this rom, which i have removed from the rom thread some time ago, because they were not stable.
It is definately not a rom problem, cause im using this rom every day (btw im on new 4.4.4 bootloader) and i didnt had any reboots from the 1st day till this time also not with the 4.3 bootloader, using Agni kernel 4.9 everything works fine, even offline charging works, but from this we already knew that offline charging was working well on new bootloader.

It must be the Bootloader then, since I have already installed Agni v4.9. Would you be able to send me the link to the right Bootloader for the i9305. Thanks Maho.

Well the case is that the bootloader is not something you can find separately and flash it for example like a flashable zip, the only way to update the bootloader is by flashing 4.3 or 4.4.4 official firmware from sammobile.com or any other site where you can download samsung official firmwares, and it has the KNOX feature included which really sucks, therefore these bootloaders are also called KNOX bootloader. You can check what bootloader you have at the moment by booting into downloadmode and in left upper corner of the downloadmode screen if there is a line saying ´´KNOX WARRANTY VOID´´ means you already have the new knox bootloader and since the new Android 4.4.4 now there is also a line in blue color saying ´´SECURE DOWNLOAD : ENABLED'' which is the case with me.
If you like to update the bootloader you can do that, in my signature there is a link to ODIN guide, also there is a link in the guide for if you want to learn more about knox bootloader before you do anything, cause when you flash 4.3 or 4.4.4 official firmware the knox bootloader will remain forever with the device, its not something you can delete like an .apk file, the bootloader is part of the device structure.
This knox bootloader seems to cause problems with installing custom roms or applying root etc. (not for everyone though) but im now KNOXED for some time and never had actually any kind of problem installing custom roms or rooting etc. besides that i think that our i9305 is now getting old and 4.4.4 is probably the last official update to come from Samsung, so it doesnt really matter to be knoxed or not knoxed at this time IMHO and most of the people dont care anymore about warranty being void, but if you like to avoid such small issues like device rebooting by itself or any other issue caused by the old bootloader with 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 custom roms, i recommend everyone to update the bootloader if you plan to run 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 custom roms as daily driver.
If you are still not sure about this or you dont understand something, you can always look for more info in the general Q&A thread or just do some research on the internet.
Cheers
Thank you

Hey man sorry for late reply.
I think wifi direct isnt working then, for the audio skipping i think its related to your kernel settings, try other governors for example. I dont have this issue, music playing fine with me.
Air Navigation does not work. Sry bad english

Hi I have Xperia T with official 4.3 ROM and now I want to unlock the bootloader and install cyanogenmod 12 but my questions are:-
1-What SONY Services will not work after unlocking bootloader and if there is any way to make it work again (like Mobile Bravia and Walkman etc.....)
2-If their is any way to save my DRM key before unlocking bootloader and how to restore it's functions
3-I used this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2712253 to increase my internal storage from 1.96GB to 5.0GB , will this possible with cyanogenmod and how to do it ?
4-How's the device under android 5.1 (performance and RAM management)
5-Can I make cyanogenmod look like the official SONY ROM on Xperia T
6-Which ROM is the best (the least to have bugs)
7-Thanks in advance
Hi, I've unlocked bootloader on my Xperia T using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2447319
1. If you unlock bootloader and continue to use any JB 4.3 based custom rom then you will have all Sony stuff camera, Bravia engine, Walkman etc.. If you use any of Cyanogen based roms then you will lose Sony Camera, Bravia engine and Walkman (but you can install a ported one version which is working fine).
2. To backup your DRM keys use this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292598
3. I think that it should work, but I'm not 100% sure.
And if you gonna install CM Rom I suggest that you try this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe.../rom-cyanogenmod-12-neo-s-homebuilds-t2984988 I read that its much better than the official one.
Thank You

Thanks alot for the informations, But are you sure that Mobile Bravia Engine will work after Unlocking Bootloader because I heard that it won't work after that
You are right, Bravia Engine won't work, I just checked now, but there is an option to turn it on in settings but anyway it won't work. Sorry for my mistake.
