Hello friends, I'm from Brazil. I apologize if I am posting in the wrong place because they understand very little English. I bought a Xperia U plus it came with the operator customization. Would you like to help me make the DeBrand because besides other inconveniences not let me update my android to 2.3.7 and the root and if possible also. Here in Brazil on this particular phone is not anything about it. Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience
Hey guys.
I recently purchased a Sony XAV-701BT headunit which has Mirrorlink. I own an Xperia P (which I love!) and of course at this stage there is no mirrorlink compatibility.
I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2210867 on here and went through the process, unlocking bootloader, rooting phone and then installed the zip as per instructions. I watched the necessary tutorials etc and read what was needed. I'm NOT a phone guru in any way but I do understand things and read/watch what is necessary. any way my phone now has a mirror link function under XPERIA in the menu but when I try to connect it the unit just says please reattach mirrorlink compatible device and doesn't do anything. The phone brings up the "Install pc companion?" box. My ONLY reason to root my phone and do all this is to get mirrorlink to work.
The phone is a XPERIA P LT22i
Running jellybean V4.1.2
Build Number 6.2.A.0.400
Kernel Version: 3.0.75-ThP_ICS_kernel_v10.2
The only thing I noticed is the developer stated that this will work on all ICS Xperias. Do I need to downgrade to ICS? Even with mirrorlink showing as available on the phone? Or can anyone suggest an alternative option to get it working. Would flashing it with the ripped Xperia Z V4.2.2 android leak work?
Thanks in advance. I realy do appreciate the help, Matt.

Another question.. cyanogenmod vs original lollipop? What to choose?

If you have to ask, wait for stock Lollipop.
Still interested ? Spend some time reading to see what you are getting into.
Custom ROMs require compromises/.
CM12 runs very stable on my Z2 Castor Windy.
I'm wondering the same thing and more, myself. I do hope somebody with more knowledge than I will chime in and advise. This z2 I have really is an impressive device. Do you know what frequency and type the 3gigs of ram are? It doesn't seem to be DDR 3 since it only seems to be able to do one or two things at the same time. For example, if cutting and pasting a file from one folder to another, then pasting another file from the pc orchestrating everything, if you try anything else, you get some "busy toast" message. Maybe I don't understand all I think I know about it.

I've read quite a bit and I'm not sure why it is a hard question for an expert to answer if to root a stock spg512 with the latest "unrootable" build before or after it gets OTA to Lollipop. One of the things that may escape you is that the various threads on these devices are often unclear if they are discussing the phone or the tablet, both named Z2, and most of them discussing the tablet speak directly to spg511.
I suppose I should simply do whatever needs done to put some form of L on it and do from there. I'm not worried about warranty and such. Otherwise, your answer was not very helpful and I can only assume you were bored when you typed it.

Really ?
I take time here and there to try and help someone on a thread, and that's your response ?
hi everyone .
I have just acquired a sony xperia sx so-05d.
I know, it's getting old but it's still a pretty nice device I think.
I am really new on the forum (and in the development in general) and that is why I would like a little help if it's possible.
I would like to upgrade my device to android version 5.1 or 6.0 if possible and I would like ; if possible ; that someone would show me the different simple and understandable steps for a beginner such as me to do it.
And if possible, can someone would advise me some customized roms relating to it and how the installed those ones
thank you in advance
