[Q] How to install Sony Android 4.4 on a rooted Xperia Z.

HI, I rooted my Xperia Z to 4.3 Android (Sony's version) but I can't install Sony's version of 4.4 android via Sony's PC Companion software as I have rooted the device and unlocked the bootloader.
Also, if I get 4.4 on my Xperia Z, how to root that?
Thanks

Maybe you should investigate what the latest Android version is instead of asking something that no one will be able to answer.
Link me one 4.4 topic plz.

The latest official android version for sony xperia z is 4.3, but you can download custom rom for your device, by installing clockwork mode and then flashing the rom.
You can search over for the custom recovery and how to install it and then just download your desired kitkat rom and copy it to the phone, then flash it in recovery mode.
Cheers.

I would add, and remind you, that a unlocked bootloader is required in order to install whatever cyanomodgen rom

Xperia Z with Android 5.1.1 (Cyanogenmod 12.1) and WLAN/WIFI does not work

Hi,
I've rooted and upgraded with several Cyanogenmod version (e.g. release nightly) but the problem still is the same:
WLAN/WIFI does not show any access point / hotspot cannot be activated
device information:
Android version: 5.1.1
CyanogedMod-Version: 12.1-20160208-NIGHTLY-yuga
kernel version: 3.4.0-cm-g6bda3b4 (Feb 8 2016)
device: Sony Xperia Z

Does someone have an idea how to fix the problem?

Do a fresh install or try flashing only the radio.

Hi Natschlaus,
Thanks for the hint. I did several reinstalls already.
Where can I get the radio.img to flash this separately?
Thanks

What's the best Android version for Xperia Z?

Hi all. Now I bought a Xperia Z C6603, tired of my Galaxy S3 GT-i9300.
It's branded and customized by Orange operator, and it's currently running 4.4.4.
I want to debrand the debloat the phone, but I'm wondering about the benefits of upgrading to newer Android versions.
Do the phone get faster? Slower? Do the battery last longer? Or shorter?
I'd appreciate your comments.
Thanks all.

the latest official ROM of Z is Lollipop 5.1.1 .222 or .228 firmware version (in my country is .222) wich in my opinion is the fastest official ROM but not a battery friendly.
If you wanna go higher, just root, unlock your bootloader, install latest TWRP and flash LOS 7.1.2. This ROM is nice.
Don't forget to backup your TA partition before unlocking.
