Hello, I have (little) question about the following:
I have updated my phone to a Android 4.3 ROM, now i really want the Sony Walkman app, and the sony album app and movies,
I searched for a flashable ZIP, and found something, I flashed it, i saw the apps, but the only thing what was working was the Movies app, ( i got Sony Walkman has stopped working, When opening) and i guess it is because i am at Android 4.3,
Are there any ways to get Xperia Walkman app on Android 4.3?
Also another question: If i already have 4.3 on my phone, do i need to flash the FTF Files for 4.3 again etc. ( and wipe everything etc.)
( i know normally you dont have to, because you are already at that Android version, but now because of this is 4.3, an unreleased version, i was wondering if this was the case too, because i dont know if all ROMS are sharing one Android version, or if every rom uses a different one
Thanks for helping me out!

Hi! First Sorry for my English, ill try to explain myself as best as I can.
I have my phone carrier locked, with Orange Spain, and the didnt released 4.3 yet, so I updated my phone to it changing build.prop and via Sus.
Everything works well, I flashed Centroeuropean 1. But when I tried to install Social Camera apps, I saw that only few were available. Not infoeye nor Defocus.
But Motiongraph and motionshot yes.
So I sideloaded the apks, and they are working, but I have some questions:
Werent all the apps ported to our phones, so the must be availabe in Sony select?
If a update is launched for the sideloaded apks, I will get a notification on update center?
I know that the update center works well, because I alredy updated the album with the new rom, but I have a doubt with the sideloaded apks. (btw, when installed, they requested the "Use update center to check for updates" permission)
Thanks to all!
No need to worry about the checks and controls etc.
You need to go to settings > Security and check box for unknown sources.
After that you can check here for some camera apps:

Not all of them tho. Most of them can be found in the Play Store

One last question please. My phone is carrier locked, I was only receiving my carrier's updates, and always late, because is Orange.
As I writed, now I installed European 1 stock rom 1272-3352. And I received a update for the album from the update center.This never happened before, because Orange never released an update for the phone, and they are already with the 4.1.2.
Does it mean that im going to receive future updates like a free bought phone? For example, if Sony releases 4.4 (I hope it) ill be able to update when they do the rollout for Europe, or I would stay until my carrier rolls?
Yes It will use the rom data you have installed

Thanks a lot for clearing all my doubts, I come from Samsung, wich was very simple to root and install custom roms, but with Sony and locked bootloader... I must start like from the begining...
Hello! I got my Mi3 a few days ago and I'm having some issues. Some apps that I really need won't be installed because of compatibility issues. For that reason I wanted to root or at least update the phone, via the miui site.
However, my phone seem to be lacking some crucial elements. Such as the app called Update. I've been watching some videos on how to update the Mi3, and they use an app in the system folder called Update. And it doesn't exist on my phone. And when I enter the "about phone" in Settings and press the update button at the bottom, it just crashes to the homescreen.
I've tried the way of downloading the update file, developer rom, from the miui site, renaming it "update.zip" and putting it in the root directory, remove cache and booting from the update file. But it says the update file doesn't exist, even though I've put it where it's supposed to be.
Any suggestions? This is really bugging me.
Android version 4.3 JLS36C
MIUI version MIUI-JXDCNBD14.0
Thanks
Is it genuine or fake as it sounds like it could be a fake. Or maybe your just doing sonething wrong
How do I know if it's fake? Seems real.

Downloaded CPU-Z. It does have the Snapdragon 801, Qualcomm MSM 8974. 2,27 GHz. The specs are as they should, many languages available. Market works fine. The performance is really good and smooth. It's just that it's missing update app and the tutorials for updating it won't work for me. (Watched a video showing a fake Mi3, it had the wrong cpu, fewer languages, Market didn't work, and so on)
Edit: Downloaded the Xiaomi app "anti-fake", and it confirmed that I have a genuine version, although the IMEI and Serial Number didn't exist in their sales records. Bought the phone from aliexpress, that might be why.
Everything works as it should, except for the update thingy.

Yeah I tried method 1 and 2 and they wouldn't work. I might try the third option someday, but some comments mentioned issues so I'm a bit cautios with that one yet.
just download a stable recovery rom and flash it using Miflash.exe
Obviously make sure its the correct ROM for your phone.
i've used method 3 a few times now and it does work but it isn't the easiest method to understand. the pictures do help though.
Xiaomi's hardware is so delicate that there are cases of phone's display breaking inside jeans. Should i need to say about phone anymore? To avoid such instance Use Custom ROM enabled phone with Cyanogen.
Hi.
So.. my problem is. I have the xperia z3+ and when i try to download pokemon go, the game is not showing on the playstore, and from my pc google play says that my device is not compatible. There is anything i can do? Is a SO issue?
Some friends can play the game from old xperia versions like z or z2... so idk.
Edit: The device version is E6533
Android 5.0.2
The device is new, less than 3 hours since i bought it
Update to 6.0.1 first and see. Also make sure your country store has that game or side load the apk.

Yea, i did that yesterday, i updated to 6.0.1 and the problem was solved, looks like there was something wrong with the 5.0.2.
Thanks for the reply.
Hi guys,
I'll receive my XZ2C next week, and I wonder how to start with it.
Basically I would like to root and unbloat (I'm a bit used to root/flash and that kind of stuff). I saw that some functions are lost when unlocking bootloader, so how to start right to not loose theses functions ?
Thanks !

You can't avoid the loosing of these functions.
You'll loose Sony backup&restore, Sony club account access, PlayStation Bluetooth controller support, video color manipulation by Sony (but on PIE there is a normal pie function too, which still works.)
And upgrade your phone to the newest PIE firmware before unlocking.
And look into the twrp thread for rooting.
In the xz2 ROM section is a thread to kill bloat.
But maybe the bloat killer is too aggressive.
Anyway you can flash again a new firmware via xperifirm and newflasher.(no OTA update).
And existenze is a good stock firmware mod and brings you at least the stock firmware OTA notification back.

Nice, we also have custom ROMs and the SODP based stuff is a separate development by Sony employees without the DRM stuff.
Means you get camera RAW support and kernel upgrades.
(Camera is still work in progress)
