Rename your thread to something like [REQUEST][WHATEVER YOU NEED]
this seemed to me a more like a question so I thought I could write you back but I am afraid I do not own an Xperia SP.
Quote me back if you expect a reply.
Good Luck

How to add reboot and recovery to power menu?

I have googled and surfed the forum and found some guides, but I still feel not confortable at doing it and I fear I might mess up my Note.
Can someone please tell me how to do this on a stock KK9 Galaxy Note?

Thanks, will give it a look.
Nope, there's no 'Recovery' and 'Reboot' entry in the Power Menu after (re)applying CWM.
I think this topic is going nowhere as this sub-forum doesn't have that many views...

Chainfire's method in this post most definitely does work. Follow the instructions exactly. Be certain to read through both the first and second posts - the files are located in the fourth post, but you need to read and understand the first two before you move on. This is pretty foolproof, if it doesn't work, then you didn't most likely didn't match your numbers to the proper download.

Look I don't know how else to say it, but when I press the POWER button those two menu items (Recovery, Reboot) are not there.
I am not saying I couldn't install CWM properly or anything else, just that I want to add those two holy items.

I don't know what to say other than you haven't followed the instructions properly. It's easy to miss a step. But let's check one thing:
CWM Manager
Because of incompatibilities with ROM Manager, I wrote and included "CWM Manager". This is a new app (as of March 30, 2011). You can find it under Applications -> CWM. It is much faster to use than manually booting into CWM and selecting these options.

Do you have CWM Manager in your app drawer?

I just forgot to say I am using mowmo's ICS Theme and that might have modified the Power menu (although I ran afterwards already-roooted.bat again and those entries are not there).
Could it be the cause of it?

Yep.
However is there really not a way I can go open files and edit lines by miself to add those entries?
Thanks for your help mate.

I don't think so, because it's part of the OS. I think at this point you need to post in Chainfire's thread or the thread linked higher up in this thread and seek higher level help - I'm no developer, just an educated user

Thanks again for your help mate, I am going to ask Chainfire or mowmo how to manually do it by myself.

You mean the original thread? There are several people in there saying it took over and replaced their stock camera app and some who ended up with both this and the stock app together. It seems to vary by handset/Android version/ROM. There was no-one in the thread who had tried it with a Z1. I did read it or I wouldn't have asked the question...
The last post in the thread is August i.e. before the Z1 came out.
Does this allow to change have the standard resolution as 20MP? The default app always starting with auto mode and 8MP makes me not want to buy this phone.
I have both camera apps working on my phone (Stock and photosphere)

[Q] CM11 nightly on int'l S4 Active - Speaker MIC not working

Hello,
I'd wish I could post this post in [ROM][Official Nightly][Android 4.4] CyanogenMod 11.0 for SGS4A (int'l) but I can't because of the noob posting limitation.
Anyhow, running CM11 nightly on my S4 Active I noticed when I switch to speaker mode during a call, MIC is not working and the other side cannot hear me one bit.
Anyone familiar with this one?
Thanks,
It has been reported in the named thread. Don't know the exact answer. As a friendly advice You can try forum/thread search before asking. It is a un-noobish thing to do.

2. I heard about broken camera after root, is that true? Is it possible to fix ?
3. What about durable battery, keep live longer or shorter time?
I had root on my previous smartphone (Sony Xperia X10i) and after few months ROM start crashing, freezing and many apps functionally wrong or totally didn't work and was problem with SU..
What can you tell me after few months after root, how smartphone works? There are any problems with this ?
Let me know your opinions. I need to decide.
Someone have here rooted Sony Xperia Z1 C6903? Did rooted was good thing?
Which ROM should I chose?
If ROM start crashing, can I then back to original software without any problems?

After root, your smartphone works normally, but with root. But if you flash wrong things (mods not for your phone etc) and don't read instructions carefully - this could be a reason for reboots, freezes and so on. You must know what you do.
