Presentata ROM Android 7.1.1 per Sony Xperia Z3: pronti ad installarla?

C’è ancora una speranza di salvezza per il vostro Sony Xperia Z3, che non ha ricevuto ufficialmente da Sony una ROM completa basata su Android 7 Nougat, ma solo una ROM sperimentale con mille carenze. Le motivazioni le conoscete bene: lo SnapDragon 801 non supporterebbe, in teoria, la versione di Android (o perlomeno, non è capace di sopportare una piccola funzione di cifratura completamente inutile per qualsiasi utenti, ma non per Google).

Ecco che però arrivano, su XDA forum, diverse ROM Android 7 per Sony Xperia Z3. Mi sono permesso di selezionarne una sola tra le varie viste, dato che mi sembra decisamente la migliore, la più completa e la più supportata. Il nome è PixN ROM.

NOTA: Vi ricordo che, prima di sbloccare il bootloader per installare la ROM, dovete fare il backup delle chiavi DRM, quindi della partizione TA del telefono (che gestisce componenti irrecuperabili come il Bravia Engine ecc.). Se inserite una ROM senza fare il backup delle chiavi DRM, non potrete più recuperare queste speciali funzionalità, le foto avranno una qualità scadente ecc.
