Hi there,
I've been looking for this on Google a whole day, but I couldn't find anything about that, other than a Blob file.
I want to install an Android 4.2.x-based Custom ROM on my tf201, but I need to have a JB Bootloader.
Where can I get this Bootloader, and how do I install it?
I know how to flash Recoveries, Custom ROMs, etc., so don't explain me the basics.
Never mind, I've found it here:

So, i've heard that when installing the newest official rom for Hero, you cannot root it the way we used to, do this prevent me from installing the modaco rom? If so, what do i need to do to install the modaco rom instead?
The Modaco custom ROM is pre-rooted so you don't have to do anything else after flashing.
Yea, that's fine, but can i just install it over the rom i already have? Or do i need to do something to prepare the phone for the new custom rom, since apparently after installing the new official rom, a new hboot get's installed which makes rooting impossible, almost, or so i've heard.
Have you look at the following thread already?

That has instructions that you need to follow... And then you can flash Modaco custom.
Hello,
I've recently got a new Xperia Ray with FW 4.0.2.A.0.62 (Gingerbread). I haven't flashed anything yet and would like to do so with one of the ICS roms. But I couldn't figure out (out of the many threads around) the steps to do so on this particular FW.
I have CM9 on my Nook tablet and am very pleased with it. I would be happy to have anything that works this well (and better) on my Ray.
Can someone please point me to the steps required (rooting, bootloader ,flashing, kernel etc), and also recommend a good ICS rom (speedy, light, kind on the battery) for the .62 FW?
Appreciate any info and apologies for the sense of newbiness.
thanks.
Check this Q&A Thread for your phone.
For ROMs, look in the Ray Development section, read the topics and compare yourself.
To install one, you have to do the following:
Download the ROM you want.
If it doesn't include kernel itself, download a kernel that is compatible with this ROM.
Place downloaded .zip file on your SDcard.
Unlock bootloader.
Install custom kernel via fastboot.
Install custom ROM via Recovery.
Unlocking bootloader and kernel installation is included in my tutorial, check my signature.
Hi, Im looking for Xperia S stock rom with no junkie(with or without improve scripting)
A link to it, if there's would be appreciated. Thanks
You can't able to flash to Stock rom without unlocking the bootloader.
If you unlocked,you can do it with Flash Tool.

You can get the stock rom from here:

Hi again,
I kind of feel bad for almost only asking questions, but this place has been and continues to be a fantastic resource for learning when my search results turn up dry.
I'm running my Z2 on the generic, international .402 firmware with a locked bootloader, rooted via the easy root tool. I have Nut's PhilZ/TWRP dual-recovery installed, but the rest of the phone is stock.
As explained in this thread, the dual-recovery from Nut works on both locked and unlocked bootloaders, so long as you're using the stock Sony kernel (which is the case here). I'm planning on unlocking my bootloader and flashing either Carbon or CM11 soon, but I don't know what will happen to the recovery: will the dual-recovery no longer work because a new ROM (and new kernel) have been flashed? Will this version of TWRP work in its place?
If anybody has flashed an AOSP ROM onto a Z2 and could provide some insight, it would be a big help. Thanks.
Hi.
All you have to do is flashing NUTs dual recovery right after flashing your custom rom. Then you should keep your dual recovery.

Hello, as my thread title suggests I have a question about custom kernels. I made the mistake of updating to 4.3 on my device [I did it for the TRIM feature but wasnt aware of the cons Verizon put in place with 4.3], before 4.3 I was rooted and was using the stock OS and kernel. I do know that its possible to get Root access with 4.3 and Ive already done that - My question is if it is possible to install a custom kernel that will allow me to overclock this device ? I know there are a ton of kernels out there, but I dont want to risk bricking this device or having to download the ODIN 1GB+ 4.3 android file to bring it back to life..Thanks in advance!
Unfortunately, you cannot install a custom kernel. You would need to have an unlocked bootloader to install custom kernels.... and there's no current do it yourself method to unlock the 4.3 MJ9 bootloader.
4.1.2 was the last Android build for our phones where you could have unlocked the bootloader.... and so far, it doesn't look like there's going to be a method developed for 4.3.

That sucks...I dont think there is a way to go back to 4.1.2 either. Thanks for answer anyways.
