Hello everyone and sorry for my bad English, I bought 23 Monday as a Christmas gift the xperia zl! And wanted to know which ROM is best, preferably not lose quality as the camera spends a lot, and the battery lasts well, of course thank you very much

For me stock is best. I deleted all social media and google crap. Get 4-5 hours screentime per day until battery runs out.
Sony Xperia ZL C6503, rooted, 4.2.2 Stock

Hi everyone ,i recently sold my dumb atrix 4g and i am thinking of buying this one.
I had the htc desire z which was good but had horrible battery(that was the reason i sold it ) ) and an other htc device that i still own and i proud of is my ol trusty htc tytn ll.
I am asking about your personal experience (what is the battery life , what issue does it have) because i dont want the same hystori that i had with my atrix(good specs ****ty phone)
Any comment wil be greatly apreciated please feel free to post positive or negative feedback.
Have a nice day/night.
i think its a great phone... battery could be better but it lasts enough... the only problem is that i'm stuck using ics (sense-based) rom because HOX doen't have S-OFF so i have to wait for my carrier to release the official update to jelly bean in order to get the newest jb (sense-based) roms. it's very frustrating
What is your average battery life if i may ask ?
Mine is between 20-24 hours standby with 3,5 hours screen on time, + calls ......and then i have about 22 % of the batt left ! So it's more than enough for me !
Thanks for the reply, it seems to be the ,,ONE`` for me )
Il buy it thx guys for the fast replyes
I easily can use the phone for a day! So I am pretty happy with it maybe u could buy the plus version for some extra battery capacity.

Better you buy a Nexus phone. The average user tends to flame and cry about too late updates... Nevermind. I regret it to have bought the HOX You know, I remember back in the days with Motorola. It was a pain in the a*s to have semi locked device. You had modifications but they never really worked... Anyways, get a Nexus and leave OEM devices.
hey devs ,, currently i have sold my lg optimus black and im going to buy this xperia s ,, so im actually an x-dev in the section of p970 so i have some questions please if devs here can answer them
-how is the battery life ?
i use 2g all the time or wifi in home
with only fb massenger nothing else in background
also i play games in spare times for about 30mins 3 times or less
also a music in headphones but that doesnt drain the battery i think

-is cm9/10 stable here or there is some annoying known bugs ?
-the battery non-removal forms an issue (incase of brick or bootloop)?
-What is the most battery saving rom which also stable and better than stock ?
First thing you need to do is make sure that the one you buy is bootloader unlockable otherwise you'll be stuck with Sony based roms.
Cm9 and cm10 are very stable, 10.1 isn't too far off being stable either! I use it as a daily fine.
Overall best all round is PAC 19.3 i think currently. Battery life is great on it and it's soo fast to use.
Battery overall, it's a smart phone, it'll probably need charging every night

Anyone here that can give me some advice and support about CM10 Stability on the Acro S? How is the battery life? How is the performance? Is it stable enough?
Just asking before I am flashing this one on my two days old Acro S, so nothing gets ****ed up

Very stable. Been using CM10 as a daily driver since... around Decemember I am guessing. I have been following the weekly FXP updates and flash/wipe every time a major change come along our way.
Highly recommend CM10!
We are missing 1080p recording, Panoramic mode doesn't work on the camera... um that's all I can really think of. I've been using it so long that any minor bugs doesn't bother me anymore. It runs much better than CM9 and way faster than stock. Battery life is probably equivalent to stock ICS... again been away from stock for so long I don't really know anymore.
I ran stock for about two weeks and then broke open the bootloader and installed CM9. It was awesome! I went back to CM9 once after running CM10 for about 10 days while I was on vacation (needed the battery life before it was better optimized) and even then I missed CM10. Flashed CM10 back and never left.
With JB sources released for the Acro S we can only hope that the FXP team fix even more bugs and make CM10 even better. Hopefully soon also take us to CM10.1!
Oh one more thing for battery life. I was in Japan a couple of weeks ago with CM10 installed. With no data connection and using wifi only with auto-brightness enabled. (data uses more battery than wifi) According to batterbatterystats (my best record) I managed to push about 3hours 45min of "screen on" on a full charge. From the morning till the evening. Surfing the web, whatsapp, facebook, email, and some youtube. Hope that gives you an idea of battery life.

That is some good battery life, isn't?
Take in account that the Qualcomm is the regular SoC choice on every Xperia (except Xperia P) and Snapdragon is pretty powerhungry on stock firmware-based devices right? I hope CM10 is an batteryfriendly AOSP choice for the Acro S..
And yes, one more thing.. How is the camera performance on CM based ROMs for Xperia Acro S? Better or worse than stock? Camera is important to me..

I am pretty sure there LOTS of ROMS like that throughout the forum but I would recommend Close2Perfection and Gin2KitKat. Try them both if you can and see what is good for you. BTW, both of them are GB ROMs.

Well, I used the Gin2JellyBean Rom 2.5.2 (not a fan of the kitkat 3.0.0 look). It's very stable, has great battery life and it's also extremely powerful when it comes to gaming. Also, I haven't found something which is missing. Everything is working great and it's without a doubt, one(!) of the best Xperia Play GB roms you can find here.
But for now I'm using IceCreamSpeed V12. I like the design and it's an incredible good ICS rom, with full Touchpad Support (and if it doesn't work for specific games you can use the Touchpad activator, coming with the rom).
Alright so
I tested almost all "gaming" roms on gb for the xperia play for 1 year now..... And i have to say that NXT Light or Auroraplay is the best choice for you if you want to game
I am now on auroraplay and i have to say i can play everygame without overclocking and withotu lags
Btw: The GB Roms are much faster then the ICS roms so dont bother you use gingerbread for gaming
The best kernel for gingerbread is
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1849536
So use that with auroraplay and your xperia play will fly!!!!
Edit: No that roms hasnt any bugs and of corse you can use your touchpad
1. I have tried many ROMS too. but the SuperLite JB is one of my Fav's .. I used it as a daily for 1 year. Totally customizable because of AOKP settings.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2357756
and then I switched to MIUI.. ohhhhh.. MIUI is the real Beautiful Face of Android.. the usual android is soooooooooooooo Boring.. MIUI is a please to the eye.. Totally Customizable.. Loving it from within 5 mins of Installing it..
2. You have the Gaming Edition GB here .. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2201338
3. and also the newer.. JB edition here .. http://en.miui.com/thread-3182-1-1.html .. the JB one is amazing.. and newer.. a totally fresh change.. but still ANDROID.

You know what this means right? The latest 4.3 will roll for the 6506 just before this shows up for the 6503 and puts everyone in a holding pattern for another month or two while waiting for the 6506 version to roll...

Really close to when the official US version of the 6506 hit as well...
Not to worry, they'll get it to us eventually... gives me excuse to play with the original development roms again...

I find I still have bluetooth issues with Omni... I haven't really played with AOKP KK or CM11 recently... (last time I tried CM11, BT was very buggy...) and Liquid Smooth KK looks great... but some combination of things resulted in it not seeing my sim/baseband, etc...
I know that I don't seem to experience very good battery life with KK ASOP roms... of course, I don't see very great stock rom battery life either. I should spend some quality time with BBS and try and nail down what usually kills my battery life.

It really depends on how much I'm using my phone and if I'm playing games...
Yesterday I was at ~ 56% after ~ 11 hours on a custom sony rom... but it was fairly light usage (30-40 minutes of bluetooth audio playback, multiple gmail account access, some twitter, some facebook, some facebook messenger, some google hangouts, no calls, a few texts, etc.)
Similar time frame on ASOP (Omni) I would have ~ 40%... perhaps a little less. It's not terribly scientific as I'm not doing the exact same thing every day on my phone. it's also not like I don't use my phone at all... I did discover that HDwidgets was really killing my battery recently so I stopped using that.. OH, and to get better battery life on ASOP I'd also disabled GPS and google location services.
In general numbers, I generally see another 3-4 hours of run time when I'm using a Sony stock rom vs ASOP... but I know others get significantly better battery life than I do. *shrug*
(btw, today I'm at ~ 41% battery left after ~ 11:50 on battery, and I have ~ an hour of screen time. (~61% of my battery use is Android OS today... over 9 hours of keep awake time)

If you look well, they say 4.3 is available for the Xperia Z and the 4.4 will be available in April for the Z1, Z1 compact and Z ultra.
So Z and ZL will be later then April ....
