Query:
My Xperia Z Ultra (C6802) received the update notification for Movies and Video Unlimited, when on Android 4.3.3, but I didnt install it, as my 4.4.2 update was also released at the same time. Post installing my KitKat, the update for Movies and Video Unlimited is no longer available. Anyone facing the same issue?

With our locked bootloader we wont be able to run ics just yet. Ace and mastafunk are working on 2nd init which may help out in that department and will lead to cm and miui. In the meantime overmind has a great ics theme that can be flashed over most of the major x2 roms.

Official Sony Firmware - Android 2.3.7

I'm just wondering when would be Sony be rolling out their last Gingerbread update which would be 2.3.7. I've seen new UI on their new smartphones at CES 2012, and they're running 2.3.7 which of course as for demo purposes only.
Anyone knows these information? The New UI seems to have a nice wallpaper and new icons, I know that's not ICS and I'm 100% sure with that. Lol.
Doubt they'll release anything gingerbread to older phones what with ics release being so close and all.
Better go for custom ROMs of 2.3.7 rather than official version
i'm still virgin on 2.3.4....haha
Why want 2.3.7 when you gonna be getting ICS \m/
2.3.7 gives nothing interesting compared to 2.3.4.
See this.
no but this does:
v2.3.5
Released on 25 July 2011, Android 2.3.5 included a number of system enhancements:[41]
Improved network performance for the Nexus S 4G, among other fixes and improvements

Agreed. Hate to bump, but had to point out: even if SE did give a 2.3.7 update (I don't think that's likely, but it is possible), there's no way in hell they'll include a UI overhaul before ICS.
The SE UI is independent of the underlying Android one (as in, the SE launcher, Music application etc.) and there's no way they'd complicate things by updating the SEUI once in 2.3.7, and then have another one changing the underlying Android a few months after. It would be way too confusing, also it would mean their new UI would have to be fully prepared and debugged for both 2.3.7 and ICS.
There's a reason you only saw a demonstration of that UI on a phone: it's not ready for release, and it won't be, because 2.3.7 is old news.
You get new ion or s n you will get that version stay with neo arc you will get ics

Has anyone tried it already? The changelog on the miui site says that battery performance was increased by 10%.. with @greatslon's tweaks it should be a beast (depending on how bad the battery performance was before)
Also, don't hate me for asking - anything about the sony camera that was ported to also work with MIUI (posted the link in your other miui thread)?
in his miui v6 sony camera was already included, did you try it before asking?
so i think it will be in his v7 too.. or maybe i didn't understand correctly what you meant??

I'm talking about this http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/guide-how-to-port-featured-sony-camera-t3169253
However, I didn't try v6, but this hack came out at the beginning of August.. not sure if we are talking about the same thing.
But if you guys who tried v6 were happy with the cam, I see no need with using what I posted :highfive:
I am running the v6 and yes, the full sony camera was included.
Battery life is phenomenal so I expect it to be even better on v7.
Will be installing this soon
can't download it from that website.. can someone mirror it please??
edit: seems i can download it now using chrome and desktop mode..

can i flash this from a lollipop rom, or do I need to downgrade first?
Please @charliebigpot
That language has this rom?
Thanks.
@Buns27
It is possible flash from lollipop but maybe bad installation because base rom is 4.4,4. Better downgrade to compilation . 77 (kitkat).
Enviado desde mi X80h(FB5M) mediante Tapatalk
in that case... what's the easiest way to downgrade?
Also, I thought MIUI7 came with lollipop by default.. are there plans to update this rom to 5.x in the near future? If so I may just wait for that.
Downgrade to kitkat with flahtool then root and dual recovery. Flash Miui and make backup. If you use again lollipop Flash any prerooted lollipop rom and make backup too.
Lollipop based miui not released yet. So we wouldnt have it near future

What i did coming from stock LP to get this rom to work was very easy: flashed a kk pre-rooted fw (this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3012378 in particular " D5803_23.0.1.A.5.77_Generic_DE-Root-XZDR2.8.1-SuperSU-signed.zip") and then immediately later flashed this miui and everything seems to be working fine
About lollipop base, in miui, android base doesn't really matters.. ui is completely rewritten so you won't notice any differences! Experienced this from jb to kk to lp etc.. no visible differences at all
Plus, kk for this phone has even better battery they say so why you should be so eagerly waiting for lp base?

Sooo.. first impressions about the rom?
I gave this rom a spin on a locked bootloader. First thing a saw was lots of errors, processes not starting properly. Second was that I can't access the network SIM card that is. I am not sure I installed it the right way though. I flashed a prerooted 4.4.4 rom then the miui v7 after that, wiped dalvik and cache.
how is battery life compared to stock rom
would you please share some screenshots about battery life

well.. i come from a mi3 with native miui and even on the mi3 i didn't use miui but aosp based roms so you can imagine what i think of miui.. [emoji14] too heavy for me, and not having full xposed support was a too big problem for me. also, on original miui it took ages to fix even more simple bugs, and weekly changelogs were always very disappointing, with ridiculous changes and not considering at all important bugs..
but indeed miui has some very nice features (apps permissions and data control for apps for example).
actually i flashed this just for the sake of testing
I've just flashed this but have to say the rom seems stable and didn't find any big phone specific bugs so far. plus it has sony camera and audio enchantments so seems pretty promising (and full drm support too it seems).
but nevertheless think will go back to stock soon for the same reasons i abandoned miui in the mi3 (too heavy, no full gravity box etc )
ps. of course stock is pretty heavy as well, but with my debloated version i feel it pretty good. plus can't use any custom roms with this phone because of bad camera so.. right now i can just choose the smaller devil

Since it's a different system I would have wiped everything and do a factory reset. (Just make a backup before!)

Question Missing sony Album app

Does anyone knows how to bring in excellent sony Album app?
I had it on my previous xperia 1.
In mark 3 it is missing... What a shame!
They replaced it with horrible and ugly google stock crap...that does not have half of the functions sony Album app had like to hide the pictures etc.
Why sony is constantly degrading its software from features that worked great??? Whatever they do with software, their obsession on software degradation, constant feature / functions removal is not acceptable!
I am not able to find sony album in Google Play.
Any working .apk?
Please help!

Does anyone knows how to bring in excellent sony Album app?
I had it on my previous xperia 1.
In mark 3 it is missing... What a shame!
They replaced it with horrible and ugly google stock crap...that does not have half of the functions sony Album app had like to hide the pictures etc.
Why sony is constantly degrading its software from features that worked great??? Whatever they do with software, their obsession on software degradation, constant feature / functions removal is not acceptable!
I am not able to find sony album in Google Play.
Any working .apk?
Please help!

OMG! I hope it will work. I cannot live without this app. Without it xperia does not exist for me. Thank you for hint
I agree! No problem
I just downloaded it and it works!!!
Can't understand why sony, company claiming they focus on photography removed this brilliant app! It is working on my mark 3. I am so happy now
Can someone provide feedback to sony to bring it back to xperia line please? This is a must and iconic sony app. This app builds their brand. Some devs did a great job developing this app.

I never used it much, I find 3rd party Gallery apps are better to be honest. I did miss the Sony email app but found that. Will give the Album app another whirl...
In the latest revision of sony album app they broke rotate function. In upper right corner behind 3 dots there was possibility to rotate the picture but it is no longer there. Apart from that it still works great
but the sony album cannot perform edit photo right ? like brush, crop ...still need third part ?
