Guy a noob here I am using a Xperia SP with 4.3 original ROM but i wanted to install the PACMAN or the CM11 ROM as CM12 is really unstable. I just wanted to know if there is any possible way to have the sony bloatware with the custom ROM because i use it with my Bravia smart TV like the NFC mirroring etc.

Try BubbleUPnP app from play store for using DLNA.
For other stuff I am blank :what:

Hi guys! I want to ask you something, namely does the Xperia T support [native or no (by installing it from play store) (i' wont install custom rom or other things whose avoid warrancy)] adobe flash player for watching online streams e.g. twitch.tv?
I'm going to buy it soon and it's important for me.
(sorry for bad english)
@edit
This phone will come to me probably with android 4.0.4
Is available update to Jelly Bean?
@edit2
Can I f*ck up the phone by it? I'm completly green with it. I have never before flash phone.
yes, just search for it on xda and flash it.
Also, flashing custom roms does not void warrenty, neither does installing apks from other places than the play store.
Rooting, does not void warrenty either....
Hi,
I have a problem with all xperia stock roms with the mediaserver process. It is always running while I listen to music (which is a lot of time) and drains a lot of battery (up to 65%). Though I use poweramp player which is totally independent of the process (own library and decoder). There must be some process to improve soundquality or something like it. On my Desire S on CM11 I don't have the issue this is why I want to move to a custom rom. I'm on 4.3 now (was hoping this would fix the issue) and want to root and full backup with keys for warranty purposes and then move to a custom rom.
Is it right that I have to downgrade first, since there is no root for 4.3 yet? If yes, what ROM? I have a C5303 and don't know what version I had previously. I bought it in Switzerland without SIMlock or any branding. Is there a way I can find out what my previous version was or can I basically just use any generic C5303 version?
Would you recommend 12.0.A.1.284 in order to be able to use DoomLords rootkit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...3#post42701183 ?
It's just that I don't know if I ever was on this version, also regarding warranty...
I know, many questions and I opened a new thread jst for this. I tried to find help in other threads, but didn't. I just reached a point where I don't seem to get further without asking. I tried to be as specific as possible and hope someone can clarify some of them.
Thanks in advance!
Answers to all the questions:
- Mediaserver will always run when media is being played (music/movie) this also happend on my Galaxy S+ with CyanogenMod
- Rooting can be done by downgrading back to 4.1.2 stock 254 is good... (see my how to about flashing), root is with doomlords method
- Version of 4.1.2 doenst matter you can use a Generic one if you want. Some versions have some extra bloatware

If you deactivate some apps/processes like SondFX (and possibly SoundFX) and use a player I think you can listen to music it without mediaserver.
(some more on that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2116076)
With my desire s it actually already isn't active without deactivating anything. just by using poweramp. I can listen to music 8 hours without using more than 20% battery or so. What I get with my SP is just frustrating since I bought it for the nice battery size-processor relation...
Thank you very much for your reply!
So you could disable soundFX (Dutch Geluidsverbeteringen) and try again?? I've disabled it and altho the music is not as nice as i had it with soundfx it still plays.. I'll perform some extra tests.. This is interesting
flashing .284 wouldn't be a good option?! because then I could use DoomLords flashtool directly without having to do the workaround....
Doesnt matter if you flash 254 and follow the tutorial

Hello guys,
i have a Sony Xperia Z1 with KitSlim_AMG (EVO8) ROM installed and the screen mirroring dosen´t work. It connects to the tv and then fails.
2nd Question:

Custom roms often dosent support dlna, screen miroring, HDMI and etc.

The Rom ist stock based, the only problem is:
Connect to TV
TV says: Find Xperia Z1... Connection
30 Seconds later
Xperia Z1 says: Connection disconnected

Sorry there's nothing to present you the requirements you have described. You can stay on the stock ROM if you would like. If you still want to use a 4.4 ROM, expect to not see Bravia, XLoud, ClearPhase. LED Notification will still work, obviously.
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.
