Hi there.
I would like to play more with my ROM.
I would like to deodex the latest german ICS.
What's the procedure?
Nandroid backup with CWM?
Transfer files to PC
then ?!?
and after all the work how to pack it to a CWM flashable ROM?
thanks in advance!

If its similar process to GB then once u have stock rom installed just usb debug on n do a system pull (pretty simple.. Codes around u.fortunately out at mo).. Then once u have the files u have to have something that can deodex the files, prob have to look online for suma then u can later place the deodex into like a cwm package n all is gold. Would really attempt this but friggin phone screwed at mo.. Hopefully if i can sort it then i can look into. Did manage to sort of deodex 2.3.6 last time round!!
Hope its of some help..

You can find a guide at this link, I don't know if it works!
PS: I'm not responsible if you'll try this, and you brick your phone!

Hi guys, here's the latest firmware by SE. Since it's not possible to root it with any known method, I prepared update.zip to be flashed with xRecovery
The firmware comes pre-rooted, with busybox and xRecovery pre-installed.
You need rooted 2.1 rom with xRecovery working to install this firmware!
If you already flashed the latest firmware with SEUS, please downgrade OR root it using THIS thread.
1. Download and unpack the file. It contains 2 files: update.zip and 2.0.2.A.0.24_for_X10-flasher.tar.bz2
2. Copy update.zip to SD Card
3. Boot into xRecovery and install update.zip
4. Turn off phone / remove battery
5. Unpack the 2.0.2.A.0.24_for_X10-flasher.tar.bz2 and flash the SIN files with X10-flasher
6. Enjoy!
Make sure you understand the installation process before you try!
Download: 2.0.2.A.0.24-rooted-zdz.tar.bz2
If you don't have loader.sin, please find it here (thanks pedrocel85)

Hey guy first of all I wish a Merry Christmas to all this amazing XDA community....
In topic: I'm assuming that the improvements of this new release are related to the /system folder so could it be possible to flash this new version and after that do a restore of my backup of the /data folder only using xrecovery?? It's just a thought so I don't loose my apps and stuff and I will not have to re do my titanium back up all over again.....

There is also a new kernel and baseband (see step 5). To be honest, restoring backup with xRecovery will work, but I'd also recommend backing up with Titanium (to be 100% safe).
ok so ive figured it out but the files dont have a loader.sin so i cant continue with the flasher!!!!

Yep. That line has me a tad confused too.
That means that zip can be flashed just by booting into xRecovery, and of one doesn't have xRecovery, then they can simply extract the files and flash using the Flash Tool - right?
yea im also confused by step 5.
Is it possible to install JIT?
If yes, I might try it soon.
I cant install xrecovery, already have the latest FW force closes, assuming it needs root already to install?

Correct ^
Cheers,

any other options, pone isnt found with x10 flasher in flash mode but fine in SEUS, so cant even get back to generic old 2.1
Probably stupid question, sorry if it is (had no experience in recovery before), but if I install this FW, would my apps/settings remain, or will it make my phone cleared?
I'd lile to know that, too.

hello guys ! I followed some tutorial and made everything exactly as told, I had recently update to 4.0.4 and now when I did the unlock bootloader, Installing CWM and Rooting for 6.0.B.1.564 firmware and when comming to tutorial number 3 called "Official Firmwares flash by Flashtool" , I downloaded it and there was 2 files which was impossible to drag to the flashtool screen So I skipped it. I found something else on the forum called prerooted system and I flashed it over and now I am back to 2.3.7, did I manage to do something? If you would help me I could pay you for helping me! btw, I am new on this fields, so yeah I am n00b on this :<
thanks in advance,
mtony
you updated to ICS then youve flashed the prerooted 2.3.7 thats why youre back on gingerbread. im assuming you did right on unlocking your bootloader.
you just need to flash any ICS stock firmwares
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1599303
then after flashig, install any custom kernel you like to try,
since your new i want you to try the advanced ics kernel first,
look @ my signature theres a link for advanced ics,also the other kernel.

I downloaded Titanium Backup and it said that it's not Rooted, but before I flashed LT22_6.0.B.1.564_Customized_NCB I had some program called suruser? And I could use titanium backup, what files do I need to download now and flash!?...

Hi guys! I installed one theme last night and now i have big problems with my phone. if i wipe all device and install the GalaxyMOD again has no result, the ''Theme Galaxy S3'' is still in my phone.
I want to know how can i restore my phone to stock rom without using odin ? I have problems with usb, doesn't connect to the pc and i can't use odin.
Thanks!
Two ways. Either with Mobile Odin (get it from Google Play) or somewhere in General there's a thread with CWM flashable stock roms (don't have a link so you'll have to search for it).
i'm looking for the thread with CWM flashable stock roms, but i can't find it :highfive:
Can you give me i link ?
I'm searching for it... right now... but...
From my previous post "...don't have a link so you'll have to search for it".

You could use a nandroid backup file if someone has.
Here is stock ICS rom which is CWM flashable (released by wanam, not the wanamlite version but stock (odex/deodex) rom
http://wanamlite.com/2012/08/01/romcwmxwlptics4-0-4-odexed-fully-deodexed-stock-rom/
1) restore from a back up (if you made one in the beginning)
or
2) flash stock firmware via recovery mode
i didn't do a backup...
Only CWM Stock.

I recently bought a Xperia Sola . I unlocked it's bootloader and rooted it with a kernel with CWM recovery. After doing some installation of apps, i did a nandroid backup in CWM and when I rebooted, it stuck in boot loop (Sony Logo). :crying: . I tried to recover from earlier backups but all of those given me md5sum mismatch! error.
I am new to these things and I searched and read here and there. I found that, I have to flash a new ROM by going to CWM recovery. (I can still boot to the recovery). I searched for the Sony stock ROM but haven't find them. My Firmware was 6.0.B.1.184 and I think, it is Great Britain ROM. It has Bengali language though (also chinese input support).
I am a little bit confused about the ROM's also. All think, it contains the set of Applications. My android version was 2.3.7.
I would be glad if you can give me a link to stock 6.0.B.1.184 ROM. Also I don't want to upgrade my Android to IceCreamSandwitch (ICS probably). I have also know that, I have to use flashtool. Is there any alternative of flashtool? probably, CWM can do the job.
Note: I and my brother bought the same mobile set. Can I create a backup of his ROM and use it to flash?
I hope, I will receive a quick response.
Thanks for your helps.
#EDIT:
I have 3 question:
1. If I flash an ICS ROM, will it work with the existing Kernel which is I think GB kernel?
2. Does it matter if I flash a firmware/ROM with other region such as India (I'm in Bangladesh)? Also How could I verify which region My Sola is from?
3. I found a 184 ROM from xperiadev.wordpress.com/flashing/xperia-ftf-firmwares/ for my Sola, but it is from Central Europe? Will it create any problem?
You can use your brothers backup for your phone...
Dont change the name of the backup file as it will give you md5 sum error

Can I? really? I read somewhere that, you should not use other's backup. Did you actually try that?
I haven't tried others backup yet....
But you can give it a try...
Otherwise flash any ftf file for your device ics or gb then it would work fine..

I fixed my phone with flashing the Stock ROM 6.0.3.B.184 from the forum link. The link is sendspace.com/file/soph92. Thanks for all the reply. I followed this process from here. thespicygadgematics.com/2012/06/how-to-fix-bricked-sony-xperia-android.html
The same as stock + root.
ROM:
http://speedy.sh/qYeq2/C5303-Generic-12.1.0.1.201-signed.zip
Mirror:
https://mega.co.nz/#!boIBHLjR!qsnN28c9xqTMq562a2lgQ6AdZVlgL4uqJZBVU75lKGk
Kernel (for flashtool after install rom)
http://speedy.sh/rFurz/C5303-12.1.A.1.201-kernel-only.ftf
Mirror:
https://mega.co.nz/#!zo4HxQQa!-rVewRUW0xcOz8WFxhfOnBR1RyjsIOknQlZ6sIPGDDA
STEPS:
Download the .zip file (see downloads)
Put the pre rooted firmware + SU zip into your internal SD
Flash both files and turn the phone off
Open flashtool into flashmode
Flash 201 kernel
Reboot device
Done
Than'k
Could you upload it with something else (for example https://mega.co.nz or http://d-h.st/) because I don't have a premium acount on speedy share, and I dont want to bloat my computer with their download assistant .exe file...
What kind of fw is this? Generic Europe? Generic Global?
Thanks for sharing!
could anyone confirm this one ?
Thank'd.
Btw, how do you make the kernel only ftf? I know how to make a full ftf and extract the kernel.sin from it. Then how to make the ftf from it? Or.. any other way? Thanks in advance.
any other link ?
because i dont have premium account.
thanks
Well no need for me to update my thread..... (kidding)
Nice work mate

It is a pre-requisite that customised or cooked roms need root & recovery to install...
Im still using Stock rom .245(4.1) rooted with CWM. Do i still need to install .254(4.1) and .266(4.3) before flashing this rom and kernel? thanks in advance

I don't think so. I have flashed a few cooked (current) ROMs with .254 rooted + CWM. What matters is having CWM to flash the ROM which comes in zip files...In fact, I had to downgrade to .254 in order to root + CWM to flash
so to correct my understanding
ROM in OP is pre-rooted but Kernel in OP is stock kernel without root?
Exactly what are the changes in this FW
I mean geez Sony only put -_- battery improvements, software enhancements and are really very generic changes
thanks

Did you really expect them to say "Basically the same ROM without all the stuff ups we forgot to fix prior to releasing it"?

No, At least they should've given the exact things they fixed liked the "App Installation Animation is fixed" instead of saying "Various System Improvements". It seems so general

Yes it is.
Did you change anything in the ROM apart from rooting it? There are some files missing compared to my german .201 version. I don't know if there are more files than the bloatware ones, it was just a short look into it.
anyone experience unknown baseband and wifi problem after flashing?
