Its not confirmed that we will get JB this year,as the above article says Sony will "Announce" the JB update by Mid-December.So they can announce it for Jan 2013 or any day.

Hey. I have a question. I want to flash the new 6.1.1.B.1.54 firmware. I have AC!D mod, cybershot experience and lots of apps installed. I'm wondering what should I check (or not) in the flashtool to not lose those things. Thx in advance

Uncheck wipe data.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] hulkhaugen:
I'm reading mixed feedback on the new update. I tried to update yesterday with the online tool and PCC, but it wouldn't work, probably cause i have unlocked bootloader or root, idk. Where can i find the image to use with flashtool? And more importent, should i update? My phone has been very buggy lately, often no audio on calls and notifications, wifi locks to network and can't be disconnected/disabled, have to restart, recorded video won't playback etc etc. I don't like, hope JellyBean will be good/better....

I updated my xperia P from rooted 6.1.B.0.544 to 6.1.B.1.154 using PC Companion.

I lost root and i tryied to root it again using Bin4ry's method from here

It fails and from what i can understand it's because after reboot i can see in cmd window this message among others:

mount: permission denied (are you root?)

I don't have the right prevelieges to write this problem to the above thread, so i write it here...

Any suggestions acceptable...

When I do that, I just get the voice search like you do in ICS... I was expecting a Google Now screen youknow, showing things nearby and all. But maybe that's because I flashed some other mods after flashing the rom.

Fidelity 5.0

Hi all,

I can't post in Dev forum yet haven't met the 10 post criteria.

Anyone using the Fidelity 5.0 ROM and getting Force closes when trying to use Google search app in order to see Google Now?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] nikoska:
I don't think this method works for me. Except if i do something wrong.

1. I have latest 6.1.1B.1.54

2. Flashtool > flash > flashmode > selecting kernel 6.1.B.0.599

3. Rebooting my phone give me a phone with problems in graphics and i can't make it work normal.

4. Even if i try to guess the screens and make phone connected in flashtool, i choose "root" but i am getting a message that hack did not worked, cleaning files

5. I am flashing kernel 6.1.1B.1.54 and phone works fine again but still with no root of course
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Lvw2000:
Before flashing the 599 Kernel, make sure that "Enable USB Debugging" is selected in settings -> developer options (I'm guessing the names because my phone is in Dutch) Also make sure that the root-script and files are on your C-drive. I had them in a networked folder first and that didn't work. I didn't have any graphic glitches when flashing the older kenel though... but you only need to see the screen to restore the backup file. I think that might even work when you've re-flashed the newer kernel.

All of this is guesswork of course, I had no issues whatsoever applying the root method :)

3. I flashed using the above .ftf (version 6.1.B.0.544) and then i used again Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry's method and this time phone rooted again.

Now i have to options:

1. update to 6.1.B.1.1.54 using this method that seems to work and stay rooted

2. update to 6.1.B.1.1.54, loose root and wait till there is a working full automated root method for 6.1.B.1.1.54

You're supposed to go into advanced start up and disable the driver signature check.

//edit Found this on Google:

1. Windows Key + R

2. Enter shutdown.exe /r /o /f /t 00

3. Click the "OK" button

4. System will restart to a "Choose an option" screen

5. Select "Troubleshoot" from "Choose an option" screen

6. Select "Advanced options" from "Troubleshoot" screen

7. Select "Windows Startup Settings" from "Advanced options" screen

8. Click "Restart" button

9. System will restart to "Advanced Boot Options" screen

10. Select "Disable Driver Signature Enforcement"

Try to use menu button while charging..do you notice the difference? share your opinion about that..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] orfeas92:
My opinion is that more or less all have the issue,but not everyone is so observant to see the difference.Sony support center replied you the logical answer,but this happens to many owners of xperia p,so i believe that is normal! What did you notice while charging?I think it is a bit more sensitive while charging,but i'm not sure...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] nicolassp:
well this is true.while charging is far more resposive..see it when it's at 90% and plugged in to wall charger. The gave me a logical answer yeas..i was wondering though if i send it to service and they replace the strip led bar if the problem is the same or not..

---------- Post added at 03:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:06 PM ----------

Furthermore do you notice that menu button is dimmer than the others ? (not as bright as home and return button) Sometimes it looks as not lit up or very low brightness
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] orfeas92:
Maybe the service will not identify the problem..the fact is that if they change the transparent bar,the sensitiveness of the button may increase,but it will not be like the other buttons.Also all the users that have notice the issue,say tha menu button has the problem,not the home or the back,so for some reason this button can' t opperate like the others..

(sorry for my mistakes in english)

---------- Post added at 03:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:44 PM ----------

Yeah,the brightest is the back...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] nicolassp:
Well apart from the sensitivity the brightness should be the same..but i see that you face the same problem.. The return and home button need a slight touch not even press..but menu button needs press..some times more than one.. Some devices have a yellow tint on screen..i checked and i haven't :)

Xpera P [TheBrains ROM] Radio App

Hi guys, my second post on the forum.

I own the Xperia P and am quite pleased with it. I installed TheBrains ROM, which I consider to be great and the Sliding Kernel 4.1. Everything works fine except for the Radio App, which starts fine, finds frequencies, but no sound can be heard. I wouldn't want to switch back to Stock, because TheBrains ROM is based on the 6.1.1.B.1.54 firmware anyway and it includes all the new Walkman, Album and Video apps from V (and the sexy Cybershot Mod and toggle status bar), the only thing that doesn't seem to work is the radio thing.

Hi All,

I just got my phone from the USA, and I'm loving the feel of the phone. I'm not new to Android/Custom ROMS, since i already have an Optimus One with custom roms et all, I just have some questions regarding the phone.

1)I bought the phone from amazon, which said it covers U.S warranty. I didn't receive any warrty card as such. How can i know if my phone is under U.S warranty?

2)The phone has come with GingerBread :( Before i convert my sim to a microsim, i wanted to update my phone to the latest firmware(i think .54, as of dec 3rd) can i update the phone without the sim? If so, then how do i go about it? do i have to do it online or is it possible to download the firmware and flash it offline? I'm asking this because the flashing seems to be different from LG.

I'll go through the sticky posts in a while, just thought i'd ask this questions before that.
