Hello world! New Ultra Z owner (coming from Note 2) - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

Hi all!
Tomorrow I will receive my new phone and send away my beloved Note 2.
I have loved the note series but I was too pissed off with Samsung shying away from 6" and giving us a measly .18" display increase on the Note 3 so I decided to try something else.
I have been reading a lot and learning about accessories for the phone etc. And of course ready to root and try a ROM and OCing righaway.
So just wanted to say hi to my new community!

Read some more. There is no oc kernel for stock. Or did I missed it?

Nope he didn't. Come to think of it. Can you flash a rom without root? Only install recovery?

Nay, you need root to install recovery, but you can use recovery without unlocking your bootloader. You can't flash custom ROMs (CM/Omni/PA/modified stock) without unlocking it though.

I saw in development a rom for locked and unlocked boot loader. Are you sure?

Funny cause I read something like that too and is very confusing coming from the Samsung world so I guess I need to relearn things again

Well, since you mentioned it, i'm not that sure anymore. If it's possible to flash a modified stock ROM with a locked bootloader, it doesn't include AOSP ROMs, since i know that you must have an unlocked bootloader to flash those because of signatures etc.
(Feel free to correct me, people!)

To elaborate, you can't use custom kernels with locked bootloaders. The signatures mismatch and thus, the ROM doesn't work. That includes AOSP kernels obviously.
Unlocked bootloaders don't check the kernel signature and thus, you can use custom kernels. ROMs have nothing to do with it. The 'custom' ROM being mentioned uses a stock kernel, so it can run on both LB and UB.
Basically,
Locked ---> Stock kernel from Sony only.
Unlocked ---> All kernels.

Yeah, iFont should work. I haven't tried it on the ZU though, so do a full NAND backup before trying.

I too have come to the X Z U from a SG Note2. I had been contemplating the note3 but the region locking killed that idea.
Now the Note 2 seems ordinary size, and smaller phones like toys! And the XZU is definitely faster than the Note 2, even though the latter never felt slow.

Just got my Xperia ZU last night. Totally, new to Android coming from IOS. Glad to be off that POS.

Rooting the tab

Night and day in some cases, I was thinking of getting rid of my tablet till I tried Tasks rom. A friend was over with his Ipad last night and after playing with the Samsung he asked if I wanted to trade which of course I said NO. I would read though the forum on the different roms to see which one might fit what you need

Basically there is no point talking about it. Just do it and see for yourself. There is proof enough in the dev section that it won't do any harm, if you follow the instructions. Just flash cwm and then tasks rom. Don't bother rooting if you haven't already done it. The rom does it for you.
Why NOT root is a better question! Too easy, and revertable.
I think only thing stopping me is if I do decide to sell my tab some ppl want it original

You can unroot the tab by flashing any stock ROM. So need to worry for this reason.

Does the dump include the modem? We desperately needed the modem to be ported to the international versions (I-9200 and I-9205). HSPA+ signals are very inconsistent and I believe porting the modem from the AT&T version will help us a lot.

No roms will work, if ever, on this device because it has been "protected" by Att from running unsigned boot and recovery images.

if you wanna get your i527 back to stock you just need to use samsung kies. you just gotta get it to download mode, and select the re-initialize option under the tools menu. you have to have the serial and imei numbers to the phone though.

From the looks of this, you just followed instructions from this thread here now, even though this appears to have worked, I would not suggest going through with actually flashing anything or making backups.
The reason is partitions are different across some of the G3 devices and it would not be a smart idea to risk flashing something to a wrong partition, especially since there are 16 and 32 gb models.
With that, it looks like there is a bypass on the VZW model which is a good sign for future use.

Yes we can. This is no different than flashing a custom ROM using safestrap on a Samsung product. I don't think you guys realize how big this is. While its not a boot loader unlock, we will be able to flash custom Roms based on factory ROM.
Hoping we get Aosp soon.
