Hi,
Sorry novice question but, is it possible to install some of the stock Sony Apps onto a custom ROM such as CyanogenMod? I am running CyanogenMod at the moment and I love it, fast, stable, and without much battery drain. I would love to be able to use the Sony stock camera though.
Is it possible, like installing Gapps, but Sapps?
Thanks
Hi,
apps from Sony "usually" need SONY's own framework. Sadly, the framework itself is not opensourced and cannot be used on other roms.
This is the reply you would usually get when asking other rom developers. Sadly, its true tho.

THere are mods , as far as I know I have cynogen mod on my Galaxy note 2 , and I installed Album , Movies and Walkman and runs perfectly , inicuding the launcher so , any other apps u are expecting..
theirs even small apps mod to make that working , only major thing which isn't ported yet is the stock camera and proper bravia engine etc
those apps need sony framework which isn't included in cm rom

To customize the L90 by Xposed, lower the Instaler Xposed Xposed G2 and it works very well in this model, and can customize the way you want your device. Root required for this. I even tested it.
what can you customize

Not much really. Gravity box has most of the tweaks already

that's what I thought, I hoped more like gem xperia tweaks
I use 3c toolbox and xblast tools modules with xposed.
Covers most tweaking requirements.

Do you know someone how install Xposed framework without using TWRP or CWM recovery? I have LG L90 D405n and run Lollipop 5.0.2 with root access. Thanks.

You need recovery for this. No other method unfortunatelly.
I am looking some other solution without recovery install. Thanks anyway.
You'll have to check xposed installation pack (script) and try to repeat it manually... But why no recovery? You can revert to stock recovery after installing xposed framework

Yes it has been removed. And it was kinda expected. If u look at the Z2 and Z3 kitkat stock roms, they also didn't have "Battery test".

Thanks. i thought i did something wrong with the flashing.
I purchased the Z3 plus, i'd like to install a custom ROM, and i wanted to ask you if all the Z3 custom ROM's are working with Z3 plus.
Thank you , in advance

take a look at the hardware specs:
http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_z3-6539.php
http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_z3+-6878.php
and I guess you can tell by those that we're talking about two entirely different phones
the Z3+/Z4 is pretty close to the Z5,
so the chances are higher that Z5 custom ROMs would work (and vice versa),
but I wouldn't try unless it's explicitly mentioned
I'm a bit confused
Could you help me, please ? I just want to install a custom ROM for Xperia Z3 plus.
Which one should i choice ?

I'll post a link to one later, but your best way to get the feeling of using a custom ROM is to install xposed framework. It is hard to make custom ROMs on this phone, that's why you can't find any...
But here is what you can do:
Install @Trilliard's custom ROM here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z4/development/rom-superslim-stock224v1-0-t3413919
And read his post carefully, there is also kernels in there that you can use with his ROM.
Install SU and xposed , then you can install Gravity or layers, or other modules for your phone, to make it look and feel like a custom ROM.
Good luck!

I wish i could customise the status bar and navigation bar ( clock, battery, softkey buttons, etc ) with the stock ROM, it wouldn't bother me at all.
But rooting the phone would be great, because some apps require root.

I want, for example, to have the clock in the middle of the screen, and change all the colors, for softkeys, battery ( icon ) wi-fi, etc
And i wish i could modify the navbar ( hight, etc )
Is that possible with the stock ROM, with Gravity, xposed framework ??
Thank you

King root does not work for this phone, if it would only be that easy ?
Since you have an unlocked bootloader your next step is to flash a custom kernel which has TWRP installed, and the third step is to install SuperSU 1.76 from TWRP

You need to use "fastboot" for this.
Do you have a dual sim or single sim?
These are for single sim!
Here is the one for single sim .253 firmwar: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z4/general/ftf-sony-firmware-32-2-0-253-t3417275
