I have been playing with my Xperia Ray for sometime now,
from
1. SE Stock 2.3.4 1251-4132
2. SE ICS Beta
3. SE Stock 4.0.3 (ST18i_4.1.A.0.562_(1252-5332).ftf)
4. Downgraded to ST18_4.0.1.A.0.62 (UK)_(1252-3323).ftf
5. Re-locked bootloader
6. SEUS Re-Install to Stock Version 4.0.2.A.0.62 1252-3323...
Now the issue is ???
there is no SEUS / Sony Update for ICS Officially .. it says Gingerbread is latest firmware, if you need to re-install repair phone.
How do i go back to my original SE Stock 2.3.4 1251-4132 and upgrade it to ICS 4.0.3 SE Stock 1251-4132 ???
Please advise ?
People are getting ICS over OTA / PC Companion
Dear All
Please help me on this one, how can I upgrade to ICS SE Stock 4.0.3 1251-4132 with PC Companion / OTA ????
I'm pretty sure you can't until ICS is released in your country.
Post this in Q and A thread
Anyway, you have to flash ics. Ftf file via flash tool.there is no option for you to update via PCcompanion
EDIT:-You can update with pcc but you have to edit build.prop

I sent a pm to explain.
Oddly enough when running this, from time to time it will revert back to the stock battery, then back to the modded one.
When I tried skyfir123 versions in his thread it doesn't do that.
Can you fix that? Cause I much prefer the R version you have to anything else.

Hmm, well I did follow the step by step rooting myself (before the pre rooted img was up)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27692994&postcount=1
Everything else was fine. I suppose I could try the pre-rooted version w/o a wipe and see if it improves anything.
Does the same for me too
[SDfy v1.0] for rooted XPERIA SOLA (Stock ICS)
Run this batch file to swap SD card (ext_card - Real SD card) and Internal memory (sdcard - Internal 4 GB SD card) storage locations.
How to use this?
I assume you have already set 'adb' in path and rooted the phone using Bin4ry's script.
1. Download the attached file [SDfy.zip for Windows users and SDfy_Linux.zip for Linux or Mac users]
2. Extract the zip file.
3. Click on SDfy.bat script if you are on Windows, If you are on Linux run SDfy.sh from Terminal.
4. Move apps if you need to move existing apps to the new location (Real SD card).
With MTP set as transfer mode you will be able to use both storage locations from PC.
Why I made this?
I have lots of data (maps, games and apps) on my 32 GB SD card which will not fit on the internal SD card. Using my real SD card is essential for me so that I can make real use of my phone.
Installing prerequisites
1. Install 'adb' using instructions from here. You only need to install 'adb' and not the whole Android SDK if you are not an Android developer.
2. If you are sure you have proper root access then check if a latest version of busybox (now v1.20) is installed. Create links for 'mount', 'umount' commands in the advanced install section.
Install Busybox using Busybox Installer by JRummy Apps.
3. If you face any errors with 'choice' command on your Windows machine please download it from here. Place this file in '\Windows\System32' folder.
What are the limitations?
- No known limitations as of now
Hope some of you will find this useful.
Enjoy!

uh oh.. i think i got the same problem.. it worked earlier this morning.. err.. the process seems to worked fine but when i checked my sdcard.. it seems like nothing happened or change.. what steps did you do?
where is this android sdk folder? is it in your phone? or your pc?
Does this work only for sola or also for Go/Acro S/Ion/Tipo ?
I use "directory bind" app for large sd datas.....i think we can do this for maps also i have not tried.....its simple.....we have to emulate the path(the original path it has to be and your ext sd location where the data is).....thats all....give try....
still no luck.. i don't know what happened..

I have no idea how they are partitioned because I do not have those phones. If you can send me 'vold.fstab' file from them, I can check and update the script to support them if possible but again I won't be able to test them.
If any one needs a *nix version let me know.

It just swaps the existing mount points for sdcard and ext_card using fstab settings from a stock firmware.
Settings->Storage should reflect the size changes after you SDfy and reboot. When you run Un-SDfy the settings are swapped again and goes back to stock fstab.
Did you see any errors? Any logs or screenshots I can look at?

Hi,
In my rooted xperia sola, the system memory and internal storage became read only. So I can't open any apps that needed to write on system files... and am not able to flashing for reinstall. I was using root explorer as file manager, but now it can't mount root as r/w. Memory card and presence are working...
If I uninstall an application or delete a file from internal storage, after rebooting that app or file will be still there. Even rom toolbox is failed to uninstallation of apps. When using flashtool it says too many bad blocks and read only file system. What can I do in this situation.... please help me...
Any solution for this issue?
I also have this kind of problem, my phone is now useless due to application crashed.
I tried PC Companion and Sony Mobile FlashTool but no luck.

Please tell me the procedure to add su files in marshmallow system.img and flash it
Bro, I used to root androids way before, then I moved to windows phone and have just recently bought this lava a97. Although I can give you an easiest way to root a device, you can try it with this phone and let me know if it works.
Find a stock rom of any device you want to root, extract the boot.img (use cygwin if you are on windows), there will be a line "ro_secure=1" just change the one to zero, repack the boot.img and either reflash the entire modified rom or just the boot.img.
Then you can simply install super su and then any root checker app to see if the phone is rooted.
Although this method used to work flawlessly on indian branded phones running android 4 series but not sure it will work now, but it's worth a try.

Rooted phones use su binaries (small block of codes that perform a specialized function) which are granted to be used by any other app that requires them through superuser app. Just pushing in the superuser app won't give you root, you also need those binaries (which on various phones are transfered via adb or through zip flashing into the /bin directory)
---------- Post added at 08:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:51 AM ----------
You can do one thing, extract the stock rom, extract the system.img partition, and then copy the binaries directly to the /bin folder (you can lift those binaries from any rooting zip file from the corresponding bin folder), then copy the superuser app to /system/apk , repack everything, then edit the boot.img as I told earlier, then flash this modified rom onto the phone.

Try googling for cygwin, if you are running Windows 10 x64 bit, you can also enable bash for ubuntu... These tools will make packing, editing and repacking of the images easier, but am not sure how to flash the image again back onto the phone

I tried the above mentioned steps in my Ubuntu 16.04 with Android Kitchen and Superr's Kitchen. With Android kitchen, I unpacked the system.img and the kitchen made the boot image and made the ro.secure=0. Then I added the necessory files from @Chainfire SuperSU.zip as per the update-binary script mentioned and repacked system.img with Superr's Kitchen. When I flashed modified system.img and boot.img with flash tool.
The superSU app said that su binaries are not installed and it cant install them also it asked me to reroot the mobile phone.
I also tried with Dirtycow exploit also but not worked.
Mobile is running Marshmallow API 23
Can you make me a custom recovery. I followed the steps mentioned in this forum to port a custom recovery but it struck in the boot logo.
The Stock Firmware file Now I have in my mobile can be downloded from Google Drive.
Boot.img Recovery.img and build.prop file is uploaded as Zip to Google Drive
How are you flashing the files back to phone? What software you using? And maybe superuser cannot find the binaries bcoz maybe lava a97 picks it's binaries from someplace else (like maybe /system/bin)

I recently bought this new chinese phone ( out from 3 months, android 7.0 ) but after many hours i still was not able to root this, tried all 1click junk and nothing worked, tried PC apps.. followed many guides, nothing worked.
I would like at least to install TWRP, but of course, device is not supported, and i dont know where to get proper IMG file for my phone.
any help would be appreciated.. thanks

no way to root this??
Hi, I also just aquired the allcall rio.
Can you help me out with a few things,
1. does the back come off in order to reach the battery?
2. on a normal phone pressing the middle button normally gains you access into the app menu, for some reason i can only access the home screen with the apps being accessed by sliding the home screen to multi home screens, is this normal?
3. have you rooted your phone and if so can you leadme to where you done this?
I like the phone, just wondering whether what iv stated are normal features or a fault with mine
Thanks in advance for any help / info
Cheers
Rooted / ish

Hey,
I have not found a root method but iv found a way to access all sysytem files and folders.
Go to app store and download ROOT BROWSER by JRummy Apps.
Open the app once installed and it will ask you to download files to make it work, it downloads quickly from inside the app.
When its finished you can then access the phones root files as tho your phone was rooted.
Its better than nothing for now and im sure there would be a way to insert the nesscerry files for rooting into the correct folders.
Hope it works for you

SP flash to flash a custom TWRP recovery .
I have ported one recovery image from TWRP 3.0.0-0 for Tecno W4 using carliv image kitchen. And it works like charm.
I would put the link up If I could, but right now I still need to make a few more posts to gain the privilege .

Hi again, I've found the better way to get root using Magisk, available here in XDA.
first download the 0808 firmware from allcall's official website and flash it with SP flash.
wireless upgrade to 20170819, unlike 0728 and 0808, this version has remove all bloatware and malware
take boot.img from the firmware folder and put it to phone storage
install Magisk Manager v5.3, hit install, patch the boot image.
copy the patched boot.img to PC and SP flash it. (no need to unlock bootloader)
done!
everything for allcall rio
