Screen cast for unlocked gpe - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

Is anyone having an issue w unlocked gpe edition and screen cast? Was working then unlocked my boot loader and it stopped. Can't tell if it coincidence or not. I know that rooting Sammy devices can affect screen mirroring. Any suggestions would be welcome.
Thank you

Did you ever find a way to fix this? I'm in the same boat. running GPe 4.4.4 unlocked bootloader

I have the same problem with an unlocked 4.4.4 v.108

Same problem here.

Your DRM keys are gone due to the unlocking. That is why you cannot use this. Unless you made a backup before unlocking the bootloader, you are out of luck...
You want me to put the hammer down?

solved!!!

Dont think there is any sgp321 fw earlier than 253....
So there would be no way to root this model then i guess

I think you can root the tablet if you unlock the bootloader. If you want root currently on the 253 version, you can unlock the bootloader and install cwm recovery. I have not done so, maybe someone else can confirm.

Confirmed.
Unlock bootloader.
Flash DooMLoRDs CWM Recovery and boot into recovery an you'll get root as a side effect. Make sure you flash a Superuser zip....
I just read abut it this morning and am contemplating unlocking, the only thing stopping me is the loss of bravia engine after unlocking with no way to get it back. Im not bothered about the warranty.

you and many others (me for example.) seems like many of devs havent got sgp321 in hand so they're more focused in sgp311 and312. I've mentioned before there is paradox for sgp321.
# You can backup Ta partition for bravia engine 2 and drm keys.
# But you cant do that without root.
# You cant Root (yet) without unlocking bootloader.
# With bootloader unlocked you'll lost DRM key and BA2 forever. (you cant flash others TA partition you'll hard brick the device).
I've asked a question in QA if the mods can make three subforums for SGP 321,311 and 312 so that people wont flash wrong tft or try flashing wrong firmware in wrong device as every Model is reffered to Xperia Z ( I almost flashed xperia Z phone's firmware to SGP 321) its just disaster waiting to happen.
The naming convention used by sony itself is a bit strange when i try to google xperia tablet z related stuff i get xperia z stuff same with youtube. its tough finding guides. In terms of marketing it seems like an odd choice too. Xperia z and xperia tablet z can be confusing for daily consumers despite one being a phone and another a tab

well actually there is but from xperia z smartphone (it was 10.1.A.1.434 before came update to 10.1.1.A.1.253 ). Furthermore smartphone has the same hardware as tablet (Wifi+LTE), the difference seems to be only in screen size, and camera. So if you take the risk you can downgrade to .434, get root and the update to .253.

[Q] How do you get Miracast working?

Hi,
I have one of those Chinese Stick PCs plugged into the TV. It is on Android 4.2.2. With my previous Galaxy Note 2, I could mirror videos and images using Miracast (Allshare on the phone and Wifi Display on the Stick). However, the same setup does not work with the Xperia Z Ultra. The phone and the Stick PC see each other, but refuse to connect.
Has anyone managed to get Miracast going?
Thanks!
You unlocked your bootloader? On previous Xperia phones screenmirror stopped working after unlock.
Here it works with a netgear ptv3000 hooked to a pioneer avr.
Regards

I'm shattered...
I thinkI have made a big mistake. I boughtone of these Miracast IM10. How nice i thought able to see my ZU screen on my 40" TV. Ijust read that mirror stopped working after unlocking bootloader which is exately what I've did. I need help back butwould really prefer stay with the custom rom PAC Maybe there is some kindof workaround..? The two units can "see eachother" but the connetion fails. I'm desperate. Is there a way to relock bootloader? I need all help i can get.
Chers! (but not for me...)

Relocking bootloader is easy but not if on a custom rom. If you relock under custom rom it won't boot. Only way to relock is flash stock rom.

For some reason there is a difference in the quality of the pictures taken with lb vs ub.. Be aware of that before unlocking
Edit: if you search on Google you can see that sony states that with unlocking you lose the drm keys and thereby the algorithms etc.. So no image processing

Z2, i Used 3 Z2s
1. My own one
-Unlocked bootloader
-Relocked
-Relocked with TA
2. Freinds unlocked bootloader
3. Another Freinds never unlocked bootloader
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7kXPU2Y8c5xY2xwSGRHSXpBbkk/edit?usp=docslist_api
Here are my test results
Sony support even said X-Reality is the only thing you would lose and its true, ive still got noise canceling bionz and everything else, even camera quality is the same, my test above can prove this
If i relock my bootloader i will get the features back?

Guess you were lucky then, I was not and the quality of mine was greatly decreased

From Sony.. It mentions the algorithms

It states for Z3
On the Z2 white papers it says this shouldent happen because content on sirius is protectable even with a broken DRM signature
Maybe ur just unlucky i guess :/
How can I tell if my bootloader is already unlocked?

1) Go to your phone dialer.
2) Type *#*#7378423#*#*
3) Tap Service info, and then tap Configuration.
4) Look to the Rooting status section. It will display one of three bootloader statuses.
Bootloader status 1) Bootloader unlock allowed: No (this means you can't unlock your bootloader at all, don't ask if there is any way you can cause there isn't.)
Bootloader status 2) Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes (this means you can unlock your bootloader, remember to take TA backups and make multiple TA backups in case anything happens to your hard drive.)
Bootloader status 3) Bootloader unlock: Yes (this means your bootloader is unlocked, I hope you made them TA backups.)
So, with the new update to 4.4.4 I can't use Play Station App and Play Station Remote, another things that I can't use or I lost with unlocked BL?

[Q]About Unlocking The Boot Loader ?

sadly the only problem i face is i can't root the Z2 cause of the bootloader lock. there are too many mods i want to try but i don't want to unlock the BL. "don't want to lose camera quality nor the noise cancellation".

really guys ? if you unlock the loader you will lose the x-reality and other stuff ?
Not wholy true
X-Reality, SuperVivid, Bionz and some Xperia apps such as playstation remote play are broken
Camera quality is like 5% worse hence why i dont care
+ you can root with a locked bootloader anyway
The problem is not connected to WiFi
Hi
I opened the boot loader on my phone with build number 167
After opening the boot loader can not connect to my WiFi
What should I do
Maybe you can flash stock rom and locked bt with emma program.
Im not sure, check on google and sony site.

Backing up your TA is one way of not losing them I thought.

On my 3rd Z Ultra :D

Hi guys
my first love for C6802 until it start to show age then decided to repurchase Z ultra C6806. Now that I've shattered the digitizer, I repurchased another C6806.
I just love this phone size.
Moving forward, this one was bought pre-owned and came pre-installed with 5.1.1 unrooted.
How do i get 5.1.1. rooted the easiest way possible?
Depends if the bootloader is unlocked, and if you want to back up the TA partition.
bootloader:locked and I want it remain locked. 1st ultra i unlocked, i didnt backup TA partition and therefore my camera went ****ty and I lost bravia features

Alrighty. Btw, X-Reality works without the DRM keys. This was changed by Sony on KitKat, but yeah, the camera is a different story. There are a couple of guides in this section (general section), so you should probably go ahead and read them :good:

where ?! . i relock my bootloader because the problems on camera .. pictures are noisy .. is there any solution?!
.. hey guy you must flash 4.4.4 with flashtool then root it and install dualrecovery .. download 5.1.1 ftf and create pre rooted flashable zip rom with prf creator ..

A solution for the bad camera? Doesn't exist. Unlocking the bootloader will remove some DRM-keys (in the TA partition) that have some saying in the camera quality, but you won't notice much difference, so the real solution is to buy a different device with a better camera
