well since you are not sure if its gonna work or not so I guess I will leave this idea and stick to the FHD record

until I change it to Z2, not really ready to risk and try to root cause I love my Z1 :3

Indeed.You could ask on XDA if 4K works good on Z1 and it is fully compatible.

Hey guys,

Something weird happened with my phone. I am not root, neither am I using any other camera app, all stock. Yesterday I uploaded a video to youtube and somehow the video had a 4k option when viewing the video on youtube.

May that mean that the video quality has been increased to 4k after the latest kitkat upgrade or is it just a youtube glitch?

Thanks

The quality was not improved to 4K,you can check that on your camera settings.Who knows?Now,does the same happen?

Probably a glitch from youtube cause mine has the latest version and still just FHD records
