Omnirom and SGP311 - Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. When I try to install latest Omnirom Nightly I get an error. Im on stock 4.2.2 rooted and custom recovery. Latest TWRP reports an error that my tablet is a Pollux and that the software is for Pollux_Windy. But I have a Pollux_Windy. Can it have something to do with firmware I used when I rooted the device? Can I change it somwhere with a text editor? I had to go back to a US. 370 version to be able to root and then a Uk 4.2.2 version to get to stock 4.2.2 with root where I am right now. After factory reset it asked me If I want to use the phone? Strange.

You can only flash AOSP ROMs from stock 4.3 or higher in my experience on the pollux windy , likely due to a partition layout change

[Q] Can I safely downgrade from CM 11?

Hello, I have an S3 LTE version, I'm currently running CM KitKat, but the bugs (mainly the camera) annoy me very much. I wish to downgrade to some stock based 4.1.2 CF, TGP or something, but I fear that it will format allof my data, because I have heard that KitKat started partitioning the drives differently. Is it safe? The camera on CM 11 freezes randomly thus making it unusable for me. I've read the FAQ and this is disturbing:
How can I return to a 4.3 ROM from 4.4 ROM?
Flash a 4.2 Kernel (or lower for lower versions) and use the CWM Recovery to do the Full wipes, flash the 4.3 ROM you want and reboot.
Do I need to do anything else than installing the ROM if it's got the AROMA Installer?

You can download nightlies of the ROM from Cyanogen's own website.
I have a SGP611 and I used to have dual recovery installed on it until I noticed that every time I tried to flash a zip file, I'd get the "Status 7" error concerning the updater-script
I proceeded to get the boot.img inside the ROM's flashable zip and flash it via Fastboot. I was then able to boot into CyanogenMod's recovery, factory reset, and flash cm12.1 as well as 5.1 gapps from PA

If I install it and I don't like it then can I not just reinstall the lollipop image?

I have an official lollipop upgrade rom downloaded and installed on my huafung-bungding-giggling mobile and it works great
I have now found an official marshmallow upgrade but it says
"there’s no official rollback available right now, so you’ll have to stay on Marshmallow for a while."
If I install it and I don't like it then can I not just reinstall the lollipop image?
Please be clear with your words,
Now what ROM you are using and also let me know with andriod ver.???
Originally running Android 4.4
Recently found Android 5.1 rom official upgrade
installed and working peachy
Now I have found the official Android 6.0 rom online update for my phone
My question is if I install the marshmallow rom and I don't like it. If I have the lollipop rom what is to stop me installing it back?
I'd there something that I'm not getting, that would prevent me rolling back?
Actually I'll just go for it

How to find the stock android version if you are running a custom ROM on any android?

I am using a XT1022 and a custom ROM of Android version of 6.0.1. I want to use a stock ROM right now.
Earlier, i had a stock version of my ROM but the last time i flashed it, my mobile got OTA upgrade. And later i again flashed a custom ROM but now, i could not perform my stock ROM flash. Can anyone tell me how to find the present stock version of my android?
Why do you want to go to stock Rom?They are outdated.
Still if you want stock lollipop then visit this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e/development/rom-stock-motorola-lollipop-rom-t3167111
