Nice and interesting here

Great! Another CM9-Rom!
Good luck!

Very interesting, hope some awesome mods here

Hi BeeGee_Tokyo,
Great to see your first GN rom. I still remember the times when I was learning to cook Kaiser and Topaz roms, and you were one of those that had helped me another. Looks like it's time for me to start learning to cook Android roms!
I'm going to try it out.

Please add that description to the op please..
Otherwise some people might think is S note or whatever S apps.
Apparently, a lot of people don understand that those S apps require tw framework..
Just to save the trouble when ppl start asking for those apps to be supported

Your boot screen is fabulous!
I've not tested your rom extensively but it definitely looks impressive.
BTW, is there a way for me to get Navigation Bars in your rom?

Thanks. Had the note since last November but only decided to use cooked roms a month back. Had to read a week before I even dare to flash. I can imagine what it's like if I try cooking Android roms. You'll definitely get a knock on your door when I'm ready.. :thumbup:

Make a nandroid backup in recovery before you flash this ROM. If you want to go back to gb custom ROM just go back to recovery and restore your backup.

I am hijacking my old useless thread with permission from bigfau to bring you ICS Black ★ STAR V "A-Roma So Stable Makes You Want to Slap Yo Momma". All i did was inject a tmobile boot.img and modem into his zip its aroma so you have choices during install.All the credit for this rom goes to bigfau here is his thread.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1676086 remember this rom was targeted for the At&t note so there wont be all the tmobile bloat were used to.The rom is stable and smooth with a sweet dark theme.Make sure to stop by bigfaus original thread to thank him, again in no way shape or form can i take credit for blackstar all i did was use winrar.. The only thing that differs between this rom and the at&t rom is the modem and kernel.The modem i used is the ulvg3 boot img is from same.ignore the first two reply's they dont apply to my new post. tested and ready to go.the kernel is stock so no overclocking undervolting ect...There are alot of extras bigfau included like google now ,svoice, s3 launcher, ect......
THIS MOD IS FOR TMOBILE NOTES ONLY!!!!!
THANKS TO BIGFAU http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1676086 there are themes and other mods his bigfau OG post check em out!

I think there may be a problem with the modem file. It compresses down to 100K when zipped, normally the amss and modem are around 10-11MB each when zipped.

Its ready for download the first two post are from the old post i had here.didnt want to waste the space with a new tread.

that's a good idea injecting it manually. i just tried it with the the t-mo boot from tomins thread and i couldn't get it to work . even using his odin process to do it manually i can't get it to work. i was trying out different roms using both processes and still no go. i'm anxious to try out the blackstar rom but no torrent availability here at work.

The only diffrence between roms is the boot.img and modem. I dont think this rom will boot on att notes because of the tmobile boot.img if you have a tmobile note flash this modded version i am using the newest tmobile modem uvlg3..No matter witch rom thank bigfau its his work..I just changed a few files.

b3ltazar.
nice - grabbing it from dropbox now.
question:
did you do the official OTA from tmo?
I have not and I'm trying to find the commonality for those that have just used the TMO boot image and me to get other roms working. If both you and tomin have the OTA, then i'll update and try the same process on other roms.

i used my boot.img from a nandroid backup i made after the newest update.So yes. you need the modem.bin and amss.bin also for the roms to work correctly.

Finally something :good:
Will test this rom, even still wait for p3100

You might want to actually make the system work at least 99% before you upload it.
Some bugs can remain but if its one of the main things you need specifically for the device then there shouldn't be a rom thread until it is fixed.
But good job anyways!

I´ll try your new Patch right after work and report back (mediafire is down).

[ info ]
Hello friends,
so after the sneak peak, i present to you leaked Sony 4.4.2 KitKat Firmware 10.5.A.0.227 for the Xperia Z (C6602/C6603)...
this firmware was ment for developer (brown) devices but i was able to get it to boot on production devices...
THIS IS FOR UNLOCKED BOOTLOADERS ONLY!
[ NOTICE ]
PLEASE TAKE A BACKUP ON EXTERNAL SDCARD BEFORE TESTING THIS ROM!!!
since this is an internal testing firmware, do not expect to see the same features on the official final release... some things could be added while others removed...
the firmware is still very laggy, i am sure the final release will be much better!
[ screenshots ]
most screenshots are posted here ​
[ WARNING ]
PLEASE DO NOT CROSSFLASH THIS ROM+KERNEL... this is ment only for C6602/C6603 (Xperia Z)... please do not flash it on ZL/Tablet Z/etc....
THIS IS AN LEAKED ROM AND NOT THE FINAL RELEASE VERSION
FEW THINGS ARE EXPECTED NOT TO WORK
THIS IS POSTED JUST SO THAT USERS CAN ENJOY THE UPCOMING FEATURES AND OTHER DEVS CAN HELP IN FIXING THE ISSUES
MORE THINGS WILL FOLLOW AS AND WHEN I/OTHERS CAN GET THEM TO WORK
DO NOT ASK FOR FURTHER UPDATES/ETA OF OFFICIAL RELEASE
please backup all data, including internal SDCARD data before flashing this ROM
[ why has this been posted? ]
DooMLoRD said:
many devs can use the libs to improve existing/work-in-progress ROMs...
many themers can start porting to ROMs/devices...
many users will get a feel of whats in store for the JB update...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
[ features ]
Easy to flash update.zip via recovery
Prerooted and busybox installed
working CWM recovery is included in kernel
[ To enter recovery keep pressing VOLUME UP button AFTER u see the "PINK" LED at bootup (Sony logo) ]
usb debugging enabled
[ whats not working? ]
you tell me!
please report other things as and when you find them
[ requirements ]
unlocked bootloader
previously on stock .101 JB (4.3) ROM or roms based on that [since some components of THIS rom contain files from those firmwares]
supplied ROM
any existing kernel with recovery
OR
just extract the boot.img (contains inbuilt recovery) from the ROM i have uploaded and flash it using fastboot
[ how to install ]
download the ROM and save it on SDCARD
reboot device into recovery
flash the ROMs update.zip (this will take some time)
I RECOMMEND THAT YOU WIPE /cache WHILE IN RECOVERY!
thats it now reboot device
at first boot device the NFC firmware will get updated wait for process to be completed
after a few reboots the ROM should stabilize!
enjoy!
[ hot tip to reduce LAG!!! ]
Go to Developer Optioms in Settings menu (if this option isnot visible go to About Phone and keep tapping ~7 times on the Build Number, this will unlock Developer Options)
Disable all animations and select Force GPU render (check attached screenshot for reference)
Restart phone
The interface will become a lot smoother now!

I know this is selly but what will happen If I try it on a locked bootloader?

The universe as we know it will cease to exist. Or you could brick your device. Both very bad.

You will soft brick your device. The custom kernel needs an unlocked bootloader.

well when i tested i didnt even backup anything and it worked without wiping /data partition...
though i would highly recommend backing up your existing ROM on EXTERNAL SDCARD...

Downloading now. You're a legend buddy!

Any idea if/when T-mobile USA will get this update? Thanks.

Has anyone flashed the rom yet? and how is it for the first boot?

@DooMLoRD
Thanks for this, hope you don't mind, I've created an update for those who want to convert it to deodexed:

MD5: 53b2239c9db9ea5a80cc2464343d5738
Just flash via recovery, no issues so far from what little testing I have done
Please don't mirror this as this will ONLY work on DooMLoRD's release.

Thx a lot ! so Screenshots and Pictures made on the internal SD card are(might be!) safe. thx.
P.S Backup of current ROM is for *******! Google Backup saves the Contacts, and all eles is unimportant xD

little warning guys: You must do a full wipe if you planning to go back to 4.3 ROMs So do backups before flashing this
Quick Feedback on ROM:
As DoomLords mentioned it's bit laggy specially when you pulling down status bar drop down menu.
Nothing really special compares to custom ROM such as eXistenZ which already implemented most of the UI changes. But if you coming from a stock ROM you will notice the changes.
Camera quality in superio auto in low light still looks the same.

Oh the joy of having an unlocked bootloader

is this laggy as hell like when playing an online game with ping = 2000 ms
or it can be lived with ?

Running this right now on my Xperia Z UK Generic with no problems apart from a bit of flickering just before the 'Xperia' logo on boot. The rom itself seems to run smoothly! It has working 4.4 transparency on Nova Launcher which did not work on 4.3 but did on 4.2 and many other 4.3 bugs have been patched...its looking really promising
Thank you for this demo version @DooMLoRD I can't wait for release

[ROM][Z2] DiXperia 'Perfection' | Let yourself feel something special! | 29.09.2014

Firstly, I want to say hi, as I'm new in this XDA section, was being a long time in X10, Play, J and Neo L development, but now it's time to say knock knock here, so welcome everybody, my name is Damian and please, let me introduce my project for Xperia Z2 .
If you want to see how much I've made check my signature and find my website or look in all my projects post inside XDA .

Credits goes to Sony, olokos, DooMLoRD, Rizal Lovins, dipesh1502, rovo89, Tungstwenty , . Also, special thanks to my Tester HussainQ for his outstanding and fast review and help with creating instructions for Locked Bootloader users .
'Perfection' is single project for Xperia Z2, as I don't have much enough time to create many ROMs like years ago. I can't confirm I will develop something more and something new, but I can promise you won't be dissapointed after you flash this one .
DiXperia 'Perfection' is my ROM based on official Android 4.4.2 Kit Kat.
Most of features are written below, so start reading this big thread! Hope you still want do that, and use my ROM :fingers-crossed:.
Based on KK 4.4.2 with firmware .314, with Sony Xperia apps and framework (4.4.4 android version changed just for fun if somebody like to have something "special" - still, it's an improvement compared to clean stock ).
Create Yourself ™ - my own idea. You've seen this in all DiXperias - it's something like "you choose stuff and version you like, and if you need something, you just apply this like extra file. No need to delete tons of apps you don't using and won't" - it's simple, fast, and has potential .
Playstation Certificate and Dualshock 3/4 connection.
Prebuilded DooMLoRD's CWM Recovery as boot.img inside package.
Xposed Installer + package with some modules which I think are very good and useful (of course credits for each module goes to his maker, not me ).
Sony apps like Walkman, Movies, Album.
Changing music via lockscreen.
Xperia swype keyboard.
30 volume steps, stereo sound in headphones and speakers.
Patched services.jar with signature check.
Dockbar icons changed.
No data icon after turning it off.
init.d and build.prop changes, also battery lifetime increased.
Scripts, tricks, tweaks - they promise lot of fun, lot of performance and lot of stability ^^.
I think it's enough but you know it's not everything - I'm sure I missed a lot of features, but it's up to you to test it yourself if you really want to using this ROM.
Just come and get it in second post .
Of course Root + Busybox.
Deodex and bootloader unlocked.
CWM Recovery (I've tested applying CWM (root, bootloader etc. also) on firmware .55, then aplied .314 and no problems after jump)
Download ROM (+ optional addons) and put it on your SD Card.
Go to CWM Recovery and make Full Wipe and Wipe Cache, then clean your Dalvik.
Choose .zip to flash and select my ROM. Wait...
Apply root updater.
Done! Reboot .
Feel free to use it!
note for D6502 users --> just check here and here
==> Important <==
Don't want make mess here, so just go and read Suggestions, cause there are some nice advices to get DXP working like it should (we need change some settings after flashing and booting ROM ).
Post #4 explains everything .
And bugs are in 3rd post .
Golden-Suggestion -> If you like my work and you are using it right now, please glorify it on your signature with this graphic:
And:
- Don't use any backup! (it doesn't mean you must delete yours, but be sure that it can create some problems. If you replace backup and everything is cool - that's cool! )
- After flash my system give it 1 day for better stability and the second one for applicate all scripts/tweaks/tricks.
- Use Xposed if you want some extra-features.
- Simple, but no one understand it. If you want to have better battery life just decrase brightness.
- In my opinion, smartassV2 or interactiveX (choose yourself) gives awesome stability and performance .
- Remember to turning off unused things like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC, Tethering and so on.

Hi

Well hello, my pleasure .

Download?

Welcome here man and thanks for your work! I'll try your rom very soon!
Sent from my D6503 using XDA Free mobile app

Jhon998, download will be ready max in one week, as I stated in first post . For last few days I was making all ready, but not all yet . Be patient!
Alexkidd85, Thank you kindly! Hopefully it will pass you requirements .

Welcome Back DikeJ!
Nice to see you again.
Loved your work with the Xperia Play.
Hope you do just an awesome job here!

Thank you my friend! As I said from thousand of years - all DiXperia projects are preety same compared to main experience . I think you won't forget good time with Xperia Play -Perfection on Z2 won't let you!

You should update the topic with coming soon or something suitable. I read the full OP only to realise nothing is here yet.

You're reading my mind and thanks for advice .

You're right. My PLAY is using this to this date. (2 years).

Wellcome on board. Hope no bug also try your rom and respond my opinion to improve and enhance

I have a locked bootloader. Does this rom make changes to kernel? Also any chance on having lock bootloader version? Thanks and welcome to Z2 forum.

can you make this rom for locked bootloader too... would love to try out this rom when released...

harrynghiem, surely will wait for any advices after thread and ROM will be ready .
crazynewfie, this ROM has prebuilded DooMLoRD's CWM Recovery which I think required UBL so the best option is to make root & bootloader unlock and not brick or destroy your device or microwave oven .
harshad_kp, after relase I will think of it .

First off all...Hi and welcome to our little family
I'm pretty sure placeholders aren't allowed but if you talked to moderators I'm sure it's OK...
Just wanted to suggest that and I see now, some guys already said it.
If this ROM is based on stock 314 fw, there's absolutely no reason it couldn't work on locked bootloader.
You just have to remove recovery from it and remove boot.img (kernel) from zip.
Procedure for flashing on LB (after that) would be :
1. Flash 314 as a base.
2. Root it and flash/install recovery
3. Go to recovery and flash this ROM
4. DON'T RESTART, go back and flash stock kernel using flashtool.
Also, you could build prerooted ROM for LB, like others dev did..
That will, surely, make this ROM more popular because everyone could use it.
