Hi,

Im on the emann 4th rom with locked bootloader,i wanna go back to stock but forgot to backup my stock.is there another way to go back to stock without using the computer?through CWM maybe?

Thanks
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Pandemic:
no sorry buddy, if you want back to stock with locked bootloader you must use pc companion or sony ericcson update center;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
if you are using cwm in kernel, you can flash this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1518148

edit: now I see you have locked bootloader, so disregard my post
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Pandemic:
so he must do wait i said, to get stock back, its sad he forgot making a back up, but i forgot sometimes that to :(

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ThilinaC:
Oh now I saw that :p ,so how in the world he is gonna use pc companion without a pc? :eek: :D

If u can download 200mb on mobile and have nAa CWM then there is a full CWM backup on SourceForge.net...search it...I can't give the link right now but it is in a thread by Vimjam in neoV development section...it is restorable...just extract using root explorer and put into the root of sdcard...but it is firmware .42 I guess.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] unisol107:
Another option...since u have a locked bootloader, u can get on stock by OTA upgrade...for that u will have to rename the firmware version in your build.prop to a previous version...the update centre would do the rest...provided that you have update centre installed...and not to mention...must have a fast data plan.

Or just go to any service centre and give an excuse that the phone got bricked during software update...but for it u will have to brick your phone first...so dismiss this trick...though I had done the same...but it is too risky without PC.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
good idea ;)

here is that nandroid backup: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=19808360&postcount=3

Torrents for ftf files?

I saw this question:

And now I got the idea of making torrents for sharing our firmwares. Torrents can reach much higher speeds than the free uploading websites and don't have a download limit like box or dropbox, so we can share the ICS ftf faster for example. It can also be used for custom ROM's or other large files.

Please let me know if you would seed. I think we need at least 10 people to reach decent download speeds.

I know how to make torrents, so that won't be a problem. Legal stuff: I don't think sharing via torrents is more illegal than uploading it to/downloading it from a website. It is probably officially illegal to share any stock firmware without Sony knowing.

So here's my /firmwares folder from flashtool, and I'm seeding right now!

(click the torrent icon to download from box.net)

For downloading I recommend Vuze, since I use it myself and have tested it with Vuze too (and it's super sleek :p).

Note that you can specify which files you don't want to download by going to the files tab > right click> priority> do not download

Root my xperia neo v

hi all,

I am new xperia neo v user and this is my first android..

I want to root it

I will unlock bootloader using official method..

I just want to know can I root my phone after installing prerooted kernal using android sdk method?

or do I need to root first and then kernal install ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] thu001:
Thanks for the help guys.so i managed to DL it through my data plan and opera mobile,i got this .RAR file so all i have to do is rename it to .ZIP and flash it through NAa's CWM?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] taaviu:
And where is torrent download link?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] unisol107:
Dear thu001...u don't have to rename it to zip...just unrar it and put the clockworkmod folder to root of sdcard...now boot in recovery and select backup and restore....then restore...it will find the backup and if u extracted correctly it will check the md5checksum and restore the backup...do it and inform here if it goes well.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] thu001:
Hi again,i got a MD5 Mismatch.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] unisol107:
You have to put the last folder with the name clockworkmod which contains backup folder...I don't remember the correct path...try it.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] thu001:
Still MD5 mismatch
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] unisol107:
Do u have Sony update centre installed? If yes, replace the build.prop in system with the one I have attached...it is original build.prop from .42 and run software update...hope it shows update to .62...there u go...update and have stock.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] unisol107:
Sorry...uploading in a few minutes.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] unisol107:
here are the files...extract...push build.prop into system/ and updatecentre into system/app/ with correct permissions
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] thu001:
Doesnt work...urrgh i really need a computer now...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] unisol107:
go here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1492145

download the system folder for neoV...now extract everything from it.

second step..if u have the emann 4th zip in your sdcard..extract it and replace all the contents of every folder(inside system only) except the build.prop as you may get error7 in recovery...zip again.

third step...you know...flash it in recovery

now when u boot into stock...replace the emann's build.prop with the one you downloaded.......you r done bro.

this trick will do with any stock rom zip...you will not be perfectly on stock but almost have the stock system configuration without any tweaks.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
did you rename anything from .rar file?

what is the exact path to the .img files which you extracted?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] thu001:
Uhm nope didnt rename just extract it and put it in clockworkmod>backup>(nameoffolder)

Guys i have a problem when installing V6 Supercharger..:(

please see the attachment..

says can't determine busybox version..!but i had installed latest busybox version 1.19.4..! re installed many times all in vain even i installed the recommended version

still the same..any ideaa ??
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] taaviu:
Does anyone "seed" too :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
can you please tell what are you using to extract it.

i wanted to test it on my phone, but ES file explorer is taking ages, by this speed it will take an hour :)

I tried with root explorer but it was on for like half an hour, so I killed it :)

can you check that you don't have it like this: clockworkmod>backup>nameoffolder>nameoffolder

2 folders with same name, one in another.

reason why i'm asking is because looks like root explorer made it like that in my case.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] thu001:
I

Ok..first basically i used rootexplorer,then Es file manager and last Androzip.with androzip,seems i only get 1 folder with the img inside it.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] unisol107:
The correct path should be. sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/nameofbackup/yaffsimages
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] unisol107:
I think the package is not properly RARed.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
and I think I know what is the problem, you get only 4files inside, right? 3 img files and one md5 file?

you are missing .tar file, it's hidden file, so whoever rar'ed this didn't pay attention to that.

it's a long shoot but you can try this. go to cwm and make a backup.

then go to rootexplorer and go to clockworkmod folder and find that backup you just made, select (only) that .tar file and copy/paste it to folder you got when you extracted that rar file.

so now you should have 5 files in that folder. now try to restore that backup.

I hope you understood me, if not ask.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] thu001:
Understood loud and clear :) but it wont brick the phone right?ill be in deep trouble if it does.

EDIT:still MD5 error no change
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] unisol107:
If that tar file has the key...I will post it in an hour...I will have to search in my hard drive.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] thu001:
Im not a genius in these things but heres an idea...why not take .tar file from a stock .42 backup?im sure someone can backup their stock .42 on CWM and post it here?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] taaviu:
Downloaded and now seeding a while!

Thanx
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] tinyXperia:
I hope it works! I see 2 seeders, but none are online. Takes some time of course.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
looks like that tar file is irrelevant. i just opened it from 2 of my backups, one had 2 games inside, other one was empty.

but i just opened up md5 file, and looks like it's expecting to see that tar file, but there is no tar file, that's why you get that error.

do this:

-long press on nandroid.md5 from that folder and select "open in text editor"

-delete last line "bunch of letters/numbers .android_secure.vfat.tar"

-make sure you leave cursor in new line, don't delete it up to system.yaffs2.img. understand?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] mpiekp:
Lol or use advanced restore>> system only.

When it's done factory reset from cwm before rebooting
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] unisol107:
that also requires md5checksum.

luckily i found my .42 nandroid backup.

put the tar file with the four files inside backup.

also..i have posted the md5 file so u can check if it helps...try first without it.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] thu001:
Every single one gave MD5 mismatch error.

EDIT:Nevermind,ill try find a computer to restore it back to stock.thanks for the help guys.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
actually you can do it without flashtool. not sure why flashtool was written there.

but flashtool also have fastboot mode so you can do stuff with it.

Good afternoon

I wonder if it is possible to make Neo interface look and work like Windows Phone 7 ?

The only thing i saw, was the poor WP7 Launcher :(

And the next question. Is it possible to install other OS on our neo? (MeeGo for example)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] unisol107:
answer for ur 1st ques-----No

answer for 2nd-------------its possible but need skilled developers ....we have great devs here on XDA who are kind enough to provide us great mods and roms by their hardwork...but porting another OS is a very time consuming, resource demanding tedious job...so its also a NoGo at present until some kind dev take the mission in hand.

however...your query is very justified...i am also a maemo5 user(nokia n900) and love that os too much...and i would love to get maemo5 on my neoV or any other android device.

Yes! And windows is user friendly too..

Linux is a bit complicated compared to windows..

Its ok. Android is basically linux. So I guess we can make it count,:D:p
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] sdhanush1:
I think i myself have answered this question.

As your EMEI number will be logged u cannot claim your warranty. But the people at he service center dont go through the hassle of checking whether u have unlocked your bootloader or not. So in a practical sense you 'would be able' to claim warranty. I hope this made things clear to you.
