hey,
i flashed cyanogenmod on my ray.. but after all u flashed the stock rom again from this forum (ftf via flashtool).
the thing is that SE companion software says (if i want to update /repair my firmware) that the firmware is modified and it wonmt update it. now my question: do i now always have to flash the new roms (for example when ICS will come) or is there a method to get back to the real stock rom so that SE companion will update/repair the firmware?
im on android 2.3.4. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1316070)
its rooted and the kernel is still the one from the cyanogenmod (i think- well, i didnt flash any new kernels after cyanogenmod..just flashed the rom)
bootloader is unlocked
hope you can help me..thx
yes after unlocking bootloader you always have to install stock firmwares via flash tool
use wotan server , it is a great way to install stock rom
hmm okay thanks! .. btw is there a way to lock the bootloader again so i can install the firmware with SE again?
thanks for the tip!
Friends, I need urgently the stock rom operator VIVO (Brazil), my cell phone with this problem, but as I am with a generic rom drive can not guarantee the worst ... I had not done my bkp ... Could anyone I help?
any server version, 2.3.3 or 2.3.4.
now thanks to all, and sorry my english ..
I've been reading, I can "rebrand" the generic rom FlashTool to live with?
Try wotanserver.

yes friend .. more so in wotanserver has debranded .. Generics roms, rom need a VIVO operator, or be branded
Would anyone have any tips to solve my problem of reboot? already upgraded and he saw pcc wotanserver .. but will not ... he's still under warranty .. will be better to send them to fumble the warranty?
Update Service or PC Companion?
already tried by Wotanserver, PC Companion and Sony Ericsson Update Service (SEUS) ... :-(

I'll be getting more and more content here as soon as I have spare time to do that.
Also I want to get more carrier roms here, and more carrier settings and stuff here aswell, other than only Vodafone.
I couldn't find the ICS version for me either.
What I did was install 2.3.7 from here:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38591400/st25i_6.0.B.3.184_Vodafone PT.ftf (found on androidpt)
And then use update service to get a clean update to ICS with factory reset:

Hi
I upgraded to ics using that French ftf but now I want to get to my brands rom but I'm unable to, even by changing the build.prop to match my SI and restoring using PC companion (I did that and pcc said that the servers were down)
So, can someone please post the Vodafone PT rom?
My SI number is the 1261-8803
I need this before the end of the week if posible...
Thanks a lot
Sent from my Xperia U
Edit: Even a CWM backup from a rooted VDF Portugal ICS rom it's ok, I just repair and it's done, what I really want is my phone to be with the Vodafone PT rom...

Also, thanks for the ICS tft, it'll be useful to get back to stock with having to upgrade from GB.

Advice? Install fw .89 and debloat it :cyclops:
Any doubts or questions just PM me in PT :highfive:
You can also find help on this site androidPT is in Portuguese.
But the masters are here in xda-developers.
I don't quite recommend using the .89, I found that debloating .54 got better overall smothness than .89... it's my personal experience, others maybe got different results, I don't know.
I'm actually using a generic unbloated .184 Gingerbread now, and I'm satisfied with it except for the speaker sound...
As TugaDriver said, AndroidPT is a good forum if you're needing help... but I found there some "noobiness"... There are some guides there that are very bad explained and some procedures that are incorrect...
To start you in, if you bought a Xperia U locked to TMN it has "Bootloader Unlock Allowed = No" which means you can't unlock the bootloader.
But, you can root it using the Bin4ry tool, that you can find here in XDA.
To root, you need to be with .10 Sony ICS kernel... if you already updated your phone to .54 on PC Companion, now all you have to do is flash .10 ICS Kernel, boot up the device, follow the rooting procedure, and after the root is done, reflash the .54 ICS Kernel.
Note!: This flashing of kernels is made on the Flashtool by Androxyde. You can only use flashmode. Fastboot is only for the ones that unlocked bootloader. Also, with locked bootloader, you can only flash official Sony kernels.
After you got root access, you can now install CWM For Locked Bootloaders by Atis. This is a costum recovery that you install and lets you flash roms into your phone.
After you got CWM on your phone is time to flash a rom! You can choose whatever rom you like from our forum that has "Locked Bootloader" or "LB" on the name.
All you need to know to start is this. If you have any questions you can leave them in Portuguese to me, via PM.
All the tools I mentioned in this post can be found here on XDA.
I'm in stock .54 debloated with some mods and customizations, and I'm very satisfied with it. My only dream is run cm10 in my lb device
Thanks Rock because I was thinking about unlocking my bootloader but my Xperia u was bought on TMN I thought if I asked for PIN unlock it will unlock my bootloader unfortunately it can't... hope CM10 would come to locked...

If you ask for SIM Unlock you need to then sent it by yourself to the Sony technical assistance here in Portugal, they'll change Bootloader Unlock Allowed from NO to YES
EN: Updated the main post with .54 Vodafone PT link
PT: Atualizado o post principal com o link para a rom .54 Vodafone PT
I changed the topic of the thread, now it will get more and more content!
Stay tunned
Guys I'm confused. I bought my Xperia Sola as it is it already had ICS on it and I Have not rooted the phone before can I go on with flashing the phone with the ftf file? or do i have to unlock the bootloader thing first?
