I'm beginning to have fears that Sony isn't releasing a second version of the Sony Ultra....primarily because there's been absolutely no rumors, leaks or mentions whatsoever. Hell the Z3 rumors are everywhere.
What do you think?
I think we don't need yet another ZU 2 / Z2 U thread
Well I think we need. I am trying to reach anyone from Sony. But they do not reply any of my emails. Doomlord_xda said there won't be any. But I hope Sony does not make a mistake. Phablets are on the rise.

Why is it hard to get a direct answer from Sony about this?

I agree with @blueether. We dont need ZU 2 thread here. Besides were using ZU1, why bother about other phones?
Well Sony is extremely quiet about it. Last year they were giving answers according to Z ultra. Well we'll have to wait and see.

Fake until proven. Closed and hidden
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
yeah me to I was following. how was it proven to be fake?
i mean like the phone was fake? or the pictures were fake? or he edited his phone to make it like that?
Non compliance from OP so until he has concrete evidence.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I thought he said he was sleeping and would do it this morning. The mod said said he was waiting for evidence or he would close and delete it. I hope its just hidden. I really hope it's authentic then he can trade it for the exynos sources, but he did say something about them asking for his address. If he's not careful they may trace him and mess him up like that iPhone 4 guy.
But this is if, and i repeat if he was being honest.

I agree. There are tons of same repetitive threads which are closed but still kept open to public so how come it's hidden now? At least we could have kept a look out for any further development.
NO news about this?
it's pretty simple......if the thread doesn't reappear then it was, more than likely a hoax......however.......just for you Mulder and Scully types consider this........What if people higher up in xda wanted to keep this to themselves, if it was genuine, to add a bit of leverage to a "certain" cause?................

I think the DMCA has an exemption for jailbreak and root, at least on cell phones, hence it is illegal for Sony to lock the bootloader and prevent installation of other software on devices which we own. We can look through the law and see if we can provide a formal challenge to Sony on this matter.

Why should you hope Sony get a penalty? I thought this was about getting the bootloader unlocked not getting Sony fined. I just want them to fix it so the Tablet S is something use able rather than declared obsolete and unsupported such a short time after release. I want to see Sony supporting the early adopters of its Tablets rather than discarding them!

ok, but did he mention anything about the original Sony Tablet S? (1.Gen) I truly don't understand why the Xperia S is unlockable but the Sony S isn't?! It doesn't make sense! Does it?
Do you think there will be any chance for them to unlock the bootloader if we could get more signatures? Say 500?

Sony VAIO made their version of the android OS and making it Closed Source is pretty much against the T&C therefore making it illegal.

They probably added in closed source code that comes from other companies, Qualcomm has there code closed source hence why when Sony released their AOSP build, for the Xperia Z, it was missing stuff. Being able to root/jailbreak/unlock bootloader is all in the grey area of the law.

On the 1st to the 3rd of September we will discuss on Hangouts about how are we going to get to flash custom ROMs and other stuff such has exploiting/bypassing the bootloader and/or boot process and more.
So how do you join in?, PM me your email address with the subject "STBD" and I shall start the discussion on that day.
When?, on the 1st it would be all day but of course you would have to eat so we would have to have a break there and then get back on, on the 2nd it would be 9AM GMT+01:00 to any time at night.
You can really join every day at 3PM GMT, on the 4th of September I am unable to attend the discussion until further notice.
In the weekends it is ANY time as well just to keep it in a good pace (just remember I am talking about Saturday and Sunday when I say any time!).

Just a quick thing to put out there, the R5A recovery now uses some other protocol instead of ADB so it is still exploitable.

I think a lot of people are surprised/disappointed by what's happened.

It seems that Monx were completely banned here !
Unbelievable - nearly 10 years of hard developing just thrown away.
His Rom's were the best and the fastest, it's a shame !
You think the moderator can drop the charges on Monx if we plead and make Monx not to do it again...maybe he forget or not intentionally....just happy he make a rom for us but less than a month he's out of the picture for good...i use his rom and i love it....just can't take this reallity...we only just got a few stock rom...

Seriously, i get it why he got banned. Giving donators privileges is a ****ty way of doing things. It would've been okay if it was an app, but holding a ROM update back for those who haven't given him money is beyond pathetic. Him being a recognized dev on top of that just makes this worse. He got greedy.
greedy for pennies, dam that whole greediness, now what it seems that losing monx is a big losss as his rom was great.
I think we should however try to settle this and ask the moderator to lift the ban, as this is going to make the dev section slowing momentum which is already the case
BTW if you know how to work the internets then the DL links are easy to find
Monx isn't banned, he has posted in the Z1 forum today, hopfully he can work things out with the admin team and get back to developing.
It looks like it was one of the Z1 ROMs that was the issue:
