Plzz Anurag tell me How to root Xperia Z1, I am having latest Android 4.3 14.2.A.1.136 Official Firmware!!
I dont want to brick my device, please tell me how to root, install CWM and how to Deodex rom!! Please
I have earlier rooted and used CWM in my old Xperia Neo and Now I am scared with Xperia z1, please tell how to root!!
Follow this link – http://xpgui.de/1hLN2is for the full guide to root present firmware.
to DE-ODEX my ROM , my model is c906, can I use these files? C6903_14.2.A.1.136_deodex.zip
Have you tried it? Does it really allow you to capture 4k videos in mid-range phones? No lag, no stuttering, no file writing issues??
Well TimeShift Video works well 120 fps and slow motion akk good.
4k libs files are not added yet, as soon as they are posted 4k will be available to record.
Z1 z1c zu shouldn’t show any lags but anyother handset like XZ ZL ZR will show lag surely.
Try visiting the original thread by dev.
Doesn’t work for me 🙁 xperia Z with Existenz 6.1 by Niaboc79
me too
i have installed CWM and my phone is rooted.
I have tried to install timeshift video but after installing the camera stopped working , it says camera not working.
I am running original stock rom(oxed) …. is there any way de-oxe this rom and install the time shift video or is there an easier way to make it work?? please help 🙁
C6903 stockrom odexed
same error as karthik
in the evening i will deodex my phone and hope it works
you have just screwed my Z1 now i did all the things mentioned here, i’m rooted, deodexed, .136 and after flashing the libs nothing’s working! even replacing the SemCameraUI the camera just disappeared!
That’s bad, don’t panic just restore your old stock camera files.
P.S. All files are from the developer not by ourself, you may get success in porting and sometimes you don’t.
Dude i tried it and it doesn’t work on my xperia z and i am not able to recover my c6602 original camera apps and lib files please help me.
Is time shift video app really working on your Z1? I mean does it shoot video at 120Fps ??
yes it is now 🙂 Flash the mentioned 4 zip files and all will be done 🙂
do u think i can use timeshift video on my xperia z ? i read that i can only record at 30fps..is that true?.
Yes previously it was recording at 30fps but now it is working fine at 120 fps.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2628185
i have installed super user mod .. but still when i install by the way you have suggested here, it gives “camera not available” error.
Can you suggest me some other way to deodex the official 0.290/1.136 firmware ???
Can you give the firmware details that you are using??
Try this app, here Timeshift Vide working fine but 4K has some issues- https://www.gizmobolt.com/2014/03/12/install-xperia-z2-sketch-1-0-a-4-5-creative-effect-1-0-timeshift-video-from-17-1-a-1-2-firmware/
Do you have SuperUser Mod ?
thank you so much 🙂
i had super user mod, still i flashed the super user mod zip and then flashed the timeshift video and it worked 😀 😀
i will try other apps once i go home and i will let you know 🙂
Does it really,really work with 120 fps (not lagging at all) or is it like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxxwEg1zpZc .
Because thats 30 fps!
Have you tried this new updated version – https://www.gizmobolt.com/2014/03/12/install-xperia-z2-sketch-1-0-a-4-5-creative-effect-1-0-timeshift-video-from-17-1-a-1-2-firmware/
For some it is laggy and for some not, some are able to install and some are not…even dev has no idea why it is happening..! Hope we need to wait untill Sony rolls it officially on other phones so we can have real 120 fps video 🙂
Ah, ok thank you. Do you think timeshift video will come out in the playstore for the z devices?
Nope z2 has supervideocamera.apk which contains timeshift video and 4k app so it seems both apps are necessary for either to work.
Sony will update these apps only in firmware update.
Xperia z1, .136 firmware.
Timeshift is working, but the slowmo is very laggy. 4k is installed but when I open it it says something like ‘no camera available’.
Es posible instalar Timeshift Video en el xperia sp o solo la linea z?
zperia z1… when run video4k give this message… camera is not available
I have installed the libs via CWM and the apk normal (Pushed it to /system/app). When i start it, it brings me the message that video has stopped (in my language:”Leider wurde Video beendet”) I use RomAur V3.0 on Xperia Z1c. What can i do to make these Apps run (Timeshift & 4K)???
nothing works for me…
I tried manually 2 times and then by flashing in recovery.
there is no 4K and timeshift video in the menu of camera….
disappointed
