Better then custom Roms? - Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am using the latest Pacman kitkat nightly and i am very satisfied with it.
I read the official KK rom is laggy. Is that true.
Any reasons for switching back to the original Rom?

mhl to hdmi does not work on custom roms (at least seems so..)
i'm planning to test a stock rom, maybe 4.3 since i can't find 4.4 for sgp311 and i can't update via pc companion since i unlocked bootloader.
apart from mhl issue i think ppls are very happy with custom roms so not many reasons to go back to stock.

Not finding much lag here, but YMMV. If you're happy with pacman stick with it. But, if you flash anyways you can always give stock 4.4.2 a try!

When will we not need to revert to ICS to flash AOSP or CM10

I'm asking as the S3 has been upgraded to JB firmware. I don't really want to go back to XXBLG8 to flash either CM10 or an AOSP like SuperNexus.
Reason for asking here, I didn't want to repeat the question on two or more threads
Never because the modem in, for example supernexus, isn't compatible with the S3, which is why when we upgrade from ICS to AOSP it doesn't flash a modem.

Not to confuse you and/or others......But I managed to install and get AOSP running without the need to roll back to ICS whatsoever. Installed directly from CM10 nightly. Stock ICS->Rooted/CM10->AOSP->CM10 Wifi,Sync and Mobile Data worked fine without hiccups. The only reason why i flashed back to CM10 was that I feel CM10 is much better with updates rolled out almost everyday.
The answer to your question is..... when we all use Siyah Kernel

Any 4.2 roms worth suggestion

Any 4.2 roms worth suggestion, I installed the new un-leaked JB and i lost root leading to safestrap being lost also. I had CM10.1 but i lost the .zip file and CM10.1 appears to be only for the ICS kernel. So back to my main point are there any STABLE, good roms with 4.2, thanks.
try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2162827&page=1 good stable AOKP rom and it has Kexec

Actually I think cm10.1 works now with kexecs too as some bugs were caused by the ics kernel... But my information is only for xt910

CM10.1
I think CM10.1 is a pretty good one. Their are some bugs, like no auto camera flash and gps , but its good for daily use. Also u schould have a look at the PAC ROM.
Max
CM10.1 is a pretty good ROM. It uses kexec. So, no matter if you have installed ICS or JB kernel.
Please visit the development section to find a ROM which fits your needs most.

[Q] Is there any KitKat ROM usable for everyday using?

Hello,
I have got stock i9300 without root and I am considering rooting and flashing some ROM with the latest version of Android. But I don´t want to do that if there is no ROM ready for everyday using? What is your advices? Thank you

It depends on what your 'everyday using' means. For me this ROM works great. [ROM][Feb 18][4.4.2] I9300 AOSP NeatROM v3.1
There are still bugs in all 4.4 Roms and will be until Samsung release their official one (or we get a leak)

I have tested Teamasek CM 11. This Rom is very smooth and fast and have many Features. But all AOSP or CM Roms are a little buggy.
ok, thanks... I prefer stable to new. I will wait for the well working ROMs. Thanks for your responses

[Q] I'm still on 4.2.2 which came on the phone the day it was released...

Stock touchwiz and all, didn't flash any roms but I am rooted with unlocked bootloader. Any mod I've ever wanted, I was able to do through xposed or just flash some small file. My questions is, are there any benefits to changing roms? If so, what TW rom would you guys suggest?
ThaCh0de's CockNRom v9.2.3.1 with XBrickMyPhoneX kernel seems to do the trick for me

Woohoo! Don't loose that MDK bootloader! You're one of the lucky/smart ones that didn't take an OTA update.

Install or update TWRP with Goomanager if you're on an old recovery. Just click install openrecoveryscript, that easy.
Stock TW KitKat: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2721118
There are lots of improvements in JB and KK, as well as a couple fixable "issues" (e.g. sd card).
You can sell it to me and then I will give you my phone, that would be the best thing for the world.
Definitely gonna keep my MDK bootloader. The funny thing that's making me want to change is the App to SD card feature in the updates.
I'll make the switch from CWM to TWRP and give stock TW KK a shot. Are there any GS5 ROMs for us? I feel so out of it lol.
I've been flashing since the OG Droid and had close to 10 rooted phones but after getting my GS4 and having everything working perfect(including the mods, I.e. WiFi Ap), I just left it

Give it a try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2702592

I'd use Flashify from the Play Store to update to a new recovery. Using Goo or ROM Manager can lead to possibly having to Odin back to stock and start fresh... Couldn't tell you exactly why but it's happened to a few of us including me.
Also... Go for a ROM like C ROM, Mahdi, or Liquid Smooth... Ditch TW

I too have MDK so.... :highfive:! I am running Hyperdrive RLS 15 and it runs flawless. Loads of extra features if you like that sort of stuff. I used the Ktoonz Kernel with it so it comes with the KTweaker App for complete control over the kernel. Loads of battery life. Its 4.3 but if you want 4.4 then wait about a week or so and Sbreen94 will have it released (atleast that is his current time frame).

Anything official, so either the Android 5.1 Google Play Edition port from Scrubber, or official Sony 5.1.1 that was released just a few days ago. I've been using the GPe port for a longer period of time, and it's fairly bulletproof. There are however a couple of minor bugs that won't ruin the experience, but bugs that are fixed in 5.1.1. I've used the newly released 5.1.1 update from Sony, and I haven't had any issues with it, and neither have I stumbled upon any bugs.
- Here's the GPe port (aka "clean" Android)
- You can either flash something like this if you want the official 5.1.1 update, or update yourself through PC Companion or Flashtool.
