QUOTE(thatisazam @ Aug 27 2013, 02:36 PM) is the current root method got way to replace the superuser app? :3 Some user at XDA said can replace. I never try though. Bundle working fine (but in Chinese language only), so I didn't bother much about it. |

QUOTE(Keishi89 @ Aug 27 2013, 04:47 PM) I have this problem or bug with the ZU, every time i use headphones to listen to music via the Walkman app after a song just finish, the next song will be at max volume even though i set the volume is set to lets say 50%. *lowering and increasing volume by then doesn't help at all, can see visually its moving up and down but volume still maxed out* Each time i skip to next song also the volume is max. I already try restarting and messing with the sound options but cant find a solution. Damn sad i need keep open and close the walkman app and listen to songs 1 by 1. Anyone facing this problem? I purposely try out, skip to next song, the volume never auto set max to me. |

QUOTE(bosouman @ Aug 27 2013, 05:22 PM) sorry TS. i never actually rooted. mind showing me step by step for me? and does backup TA needed for just rooting? It is One Click Root, what step you need? - Make sure USB Debugging is tick at Settings - Developer Options.
- Download that one click app and install at PC.
- Connect phone to PC.
- Run that app and click that green button (lower right corner) and wait it complete.
Done. Backup TA is not a must, it is for future if you plan to unlocked the bootloader. This post has been edited by Andrewtst: Aug 27 2013, 05:34 PM |

QUOTE(bosouman @ Aug 27 2013, 05:30 PM) i never did rooted. scared messing up. and i can't read that language. thank you very much.  hope nothing gone bad to my beloved XZU Welcome. The bundle SuperSU is written in Chinese also. YES allow is right button, will prompt when you install apps required root access. Beside that Chinese version SuperSU, they also install a Baidu shortcut, this is rubbish app, you can uninstall it later. This post has been edited by Andrewtst: Aug 27 2013, 05:36 PM |

QUOTE(mafioso @ Aug 27 2013, 05:19 PM) i got too spoiled by these. hard to go back. but i still agree that sony stock DOES give the best battery life. but since i need these features, i guess i was willing to sacrifice battery life a little.. still can go as long as 3 hours ++ for screen time.. but on stock, we can get up to 5 hours  Haha! I never try Paranoid for Xperia Z also, my previous try is when I using Galaxy S III. |

QUOTE(62802820 @ Aug 28 2013, 09:04 AM) If I do this.. Will it affect my future update? I have to Chg back to Malaysia 12XX right? Cannot change back as no root, current vroot or 360 root suggest don't use as people said a lot problem appear in 510 after root. Anyway nothing la, in-case new firmware out that time just root and change again to update. Sony firmware which region not much different, it is same just add-on extra thing for certain region. Malaysia region always got nothing and late than others region. By the way, me success update, the new firmware performance is wow! smooth a lot.  |
