Sony has begun seeding the Android 4.4.4 KitKat based firmware update to Sony Xperia Z. It is available in France, but it should soon roll out to all Xperia Z units worldwide. Sony Xperia Z has been running on Android 4.4.2 KitKat since May. Sony has decided to skip the 4.4.3 version and went straight for the latest 4.4.4 KitKat revision. Of course, it incorporates all bug fixes Google has come

Getting rid of ODIN to ROOT

The Samsung Galaxy Note keeps track of the kind of kernel you are running (stock or custom) and how often you have flashed kernels. This is probably for warranty purposes. There is currently no known way to reset this counter on the SGN.

So, what we want to do is get root, busybox, and CWM, all without getting that ugly yellow triangle or updating the flash counter on our device.

Luckily and Thanks to DoomLord who found the zergRush Exploit. zergRush use ADB to copy/install Root and BusyBox to your phone...it will not touch your kernel..

We need to get rid of ODIN pretty much completely, and we can! Use this!

Getting rid of ODIN
This is easy. Find ODIN, and delete it. In the future you should only need it to flash bootloaders, which probably will only really be needed one time: when upgrading from Gingerbread to Ice Cream Sandwich.
