Special keycombo's
- Boot to bootloader (fastboot): unplug device, hold volume up and plug usb into device
- Reset if stuck: hold volume up and power button till the phone shakes

Non-standard notes
The Xperia Z does not have a recovery partition, so flashing PostmarketOS erases any recovery you have installed. Instructions across the internet for reinstalling a custom recovery are almost all incorrect.
To install a custom recovery on the Xperia Z:
- put the device in fastboot mode
- run
fastboot flash boot recovery.img
(replacerecovery.img
with the filename of your recovery of choice)
This is also the reason why LineageOS boot.img is far larger than postmarketOS boot image (the recovery is inside it).
What works
- charging
- network through USB
- telnet in initramfs
- ssh
- adjusting the led, torch and the lcd backlight
- display
- Weston
- Xwayland
- touchscreen
Known issues
- Splash screens don't work
- Launching Weston is delayed by 135 seconds to let udev settle down
- Display works only when running
cat /sys/class/graphics/fb0/modes > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/mode
after being logged in using SSH.
What has not been tested
- Bluetooth
- 3G
- Sound
- Phone calls
- SD card

= Installation procedure
Follow the Installation guide.
Troubleshooting
- If you get a slowly blinking red LED when trying to charge, this could mean your battery does not get charged. You have then have two options:
- Open the back (eg. with a hairdryer) and try to unplug and plug the battery
- If all else fails: buy a new battery
Other information
- It should be possible to run The Mainline Kernel on the device. At least there is a
dts
file already in the 4.14 kernel:arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom-apq8064-sony-xperia-yuga.dts
