[ROM][JB][JUN-23][PORT][STABLE][RE-ENGINEERED] | Xperia Z Jelly Bean v4 |



★ Xperia Z Jelly Bean v3 v4 ★
Ported by CedArctic & Akateha (Team Pear Crew)


The Ultimate Xperia Z Experience ported to our device. Today we brake the bridge between Xperias and the Desires/Inspires. The ROM is ported from the Xperia Arc S forums. The original ROM was created by rikadrahman. You can find the original thread here. The ROM is fully functional, I have been using it as my daily ROM for nearly 9 hours (LOL! ) . Anyways everything is working including the WiFi. The ROM when ported lacked all the features and the existent ones were misfunctioning. So the ROM was re-engineered with the features existent plus more (e.g Sociallife), also added some more Xperia-ish touches like the Xperia Z lockscreen etc. The ROM is fully fledged with all the latest Xperia features... Enjoy!


Version 4 is officially released with major bugs and performance improvements. All issues must be solved. The download music info bug requiers manual work (take a look at the bug section). To fix the chinese keyboard you must download an alternative keyboard (give feedback on that). Also the lockscreen issue has been solved, just flash the zip in the downloads section.And finally the google setup bug has been solved, just download and flash the new google apps when you reflash the new ROM. Enjoy!

Features


The ROM features all standard CyanogenMod features plus more like:

Quote:

ClearAudio+

and more that I can't remember at the moment...
