if you format your phone using Sony's reset settings you won't loose the root.
but if you flash the whole new rom then it will be unroot.
and no,formatting your phone won't harm it.

thanks bro ... and bro what app should i install for my root xperia to gain all the best features ?????

SetCpu app to save some battery, switch mode from preformance to ondemanded it actually helps a bit.
ScreenshotER app for taking screens on your device.
Market Helper app that can make your rooted device look like a completely different phone.
Root Explorer app, this one could be already installed with the root, if not u should download it.
ROM Manager app for flashing any zip on your phone.
AdFree app for blocking ads and speeding up your browser
Call Blocker app for blocking calls you don't want to be bothered by
At least these was my favorites on my old rooted device.
Install on your own risk good luck

[Q] want to do my own rom... what do i need?

hello
i want to create my own rom for the xperia x10
what programs do i need for that?
and can i modify an existing rom? want to understand how making roms works first, so my question is if i download a custom rom, can i modify it for my personal purposes? for exampe by removing some apps...
thanks for ur help
Taking out apps is easy.. use titanium backup. Ifyou want to mix them use a kitchen. If you want to build one use linux and download google source and edit.

hello guys sorry for my noob question.as noons are treated so nicely here
I have LG p500.I rooted it 2 months ago I had only some little issues and I'm aware of little side effacts
now 2 days ago my market updated some apps automatically 1st time.1 of updated app is 'super user.now yesterday it updated again.when I click to open it some time it shows a grey screen and force close and MOSTLY it says ' no app in the list ' and super user isn't showing anything.
can someone tell me how to make it working again.ill be really heartily thankful to you guys.my last problem was solved here and I wish this will be solved too
1 more thing is can someone tell me how can I stop market to update apps itself.so it won't happen in future
regards
Yash
I rooted using gingerbreak app.just for info
now my titanium backup isn't working.keep saying sorry we need a rooted device
I just updated Super user and it works fine for me. To stop auto updating uncheck it in the market.

There shouldn't be a problem. Just that when you want to use an application which needs root, you'll have to give permission again

Namely..
1. Are u on a custom rom??
2. Do u knw what root is??
3. Are a noob with no idea what I am talking abt...
If so is the case then u have to do some research abt ur device via google..

Any android phone/tablet comes with the google apps preinstalled...
And what do u mean by u have many root on ur phone??
I didn't try to offend u... but i will nw..
If there is no info abt the tablet in google/youtube y the hell u buy it in the first place. I'd do some research before spending.... and i never said I was smarter than u.... and lastly I said i was not able to help u becoz u don't knw if ur tablet is rooted, u can't boot into recovery of the device(neither can I) and I don't have ever come across a situation like this...

I am done here,,,,
Maybe someone else can help u..
And u cud have said that in the op instead of saying 'i have bought a new tablet'...
Don't beleive see for urself... secondly, i have wasted enough time trying to help u... u could have written in the op itself, that u have no idea if the device is rooted, that the shop installed a fake market app which is crap,.... and that the guyz at the shop didn't tell u how to boot into recovery... I wouldn't wasted so much time writing this much and help u spam a section... becoz installing playstore is a straight forward process and is dine by the way i have told u.. either flashing zip via recovery or by intalling apk and fixing permission via recovery.....
And their other guyz whom i have helped solve the same problem via same method... So, I knw what I am saying... You are urself confused..... this is my last reply to u... someone else maybe able to help.. I am sure there are others who knw some other ways that might be useful...

First result from a Google search:
http://www.runamux.net/search/view/zip/HxH_8uD1/MAXSUN_M81_ROOT
Once rooted you'll want to install Google Play and a few other apks that allow you to log into your Google account all as system apps. The procedure is the same for any device, this guide for the Kindle Fire HD should work since its also ICS:

Did you read the post for the KF that I linked to, I said to use those instructions. Step 4 says to use a file explorer with superuser permissions to set the file permissions. So go to Google Play and search for "file explorer superuser permissions" and you'll see Root Explorer and ES File Explorer in the results. Both will work, but ES is free.
Once again the process to install Google Play once you have root is the same for any device as long as they are on the same version of Android. So there is tons of info out there about how to do it.
Hello, guyz point a finger about my english, i know is not the best,
Now seems i didnt understant the 4 part or i did something wrong, i work no that now to do it from start again.
Ok i am really cofused now, i follow the info and the guide from the link you give you before (http://www.runamux.net/search/view/zip/HxH_8uD1/MAXSUN_M81_ROOT)
And all seems going fine, he is recognize the tablet, i see the serial number also, so the drivers is installed fine, and when i run the Root i got the error :
rm failed for /system/xbin/su, no such file or directory.

go to play store. download "Titanium Backup" - here you can uninstall system apps. BEWARE ON WHAT YOU REMOVE. do a research first of the apps that can be removed.
apps to sd - download Link2SD from playstore.

Better and less expensive way: Use a root file explorer and simply delete the bloatware from /system/app. BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU DELETE.
and use an app2sd script if you want to move apks to your SD. This will require a partitioned SD card. I recommend (if you don't already have one) investing in a class 10 SD for faster read/write speeds. app2sd scripts slow down your phone. A higher class SD would fix that issue.
1 question more
After rooted can I install the apps that not supported by my device,
No its not possible to install apps that are not supported on your device.
As some apps depends upon your hardware including processor ,gpu and other configs..

Instead of installing a whole new rom consider creating a layer of apps to get iOS look. These include installing a new launcher, lockscreen app, music player app etc. Do a g search for a more comprehesive list.
i think no one wants to share their expertise here...

Why this Happens?

This happens 3-4 times in a day even i always have a full network coverage
Do anyone has this problem or know how to get rid of it?
Have a look at SS
I'm on stock debloated ICS

Hey first of all,do a fresh wipe of the dalvik cache through the recovery.If the problem still persists,then flash the STOCK ICS through SEUS or Flashtool(better).Do not debloat through any software.If you want to,then download the app called 'system app mover' on the playstore(requires root).This should help.
Thanks
Debloating won't cause it. That's for sure.

OK.Well in that case may I know the process which you have used for debloating?I suggest you debloat using the system/app mover app.I think there is some hardware problem then in your device(do the other custom roms cause the same problem?).Or there would be a problem in the simlock.ta.Please try reflashing the simlock.ta partition again through the flashtool.Otherwise follow the method which i told you:
1.Re-install the STOCK rom(obviously ROOTED,done by downgrading to GB and then using 'Xperia-ROOT' for rooting and then upgrading to ICS by flashing the rom with wipe data option disabled.....you may be knowing this.
2.Then use system/app mover and uninstall the system apps you don't want.
I think that should help.However,if you wish to find out as to 'WHY THIS IS HAPPENING IF DEBLOATING IS NOT THE PROBLEM BY YOUR METHOD' i don't have any answer.
I think I helped as much as I could.Please press THANKS if I helped.

maybe solution..
hey, i had this problem year ago, and the problem was
that my sim was very old and i change it often so something was bricked in sim card and time to time it shows me same message OR thats no connection b'cuz sim was removed
if i had a new sim (same operator/phone/ROM and kernel) this problem was gone....
i'm not sure if this fix ur problem but this is how i fixed....
good luck and best, bejunk
You should try using your phone with someone else's SIM this way you'll know if it come from the SIM or if it's software side.
Thanks all.
