[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] wbgenetic:
first I flashed the 184 using the flashtool with my own ftf file as you helped me do.

now I have 184.

the bootloader has already been unlocked

and then I try to execute the following

fastboot.exe boot the_184_rooted_kernel.elf as suggested in the first post of this thread

and I get this message that you see ... :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Lebenita:
I see. Since the 184 kernel from this thread doesn't mount SD cards (as indicated in several posts above), it's not a good idea to flash it anyway. Try flashing this kernel instead and installing su and Superuser.apk as instructed there. That's what's now working perfectly for me.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] wbgenetic:
yeah I get where you're going - however I get a similar message when trying to flash that as well ... (tried it before as well) :(

FAILED (remote: Wrong range:0x10008000-0x104a13f0. Ok:0x00000000-0x05efffff)

finished. total time: 0.280s

That's what I get with the other kernel ..

ha - works!

see if i can get root now!

geez an entire afternoon went out coz of this lol
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Lebenita:
Nothing unusual when fiddling around with ROMs... ;). At least you have finally got what you wanted (hopefully).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] wbgenetic:
well yes and no ... I do seem to have root access (checked with root checker). ... and apps seem to work fine at first - but then a slow down and I get root uninstaller for example telling me :

"Your phone cannot get root privileges" :?

I have superuser installed, busybox also is telling me that it cannot find some stuff during install --

otherwise I followed all to the letter in terms of adb and su ... - but there seems to be something wrong ...

superuser seems to be giving me the following :

mounting again : /system as rw .. no success! ??!

This is a custom kernel based on doomkernel for xperia p, incldues goveners, recovery, su, superuser, init.d scripts....... , i have extracted the elf from this post and had a look into it, my kernel is a stock kernel nothing included except the modified default.prop in the ramdisk...

And with mine you have to include su and superuser via adb yourself.....

Thank you for this. For a noob what is recommended? I will just be using the Xperia go as a secondary phone and only require root for titanium back and 1 or 2 other apps. Is there a step by step guide i.e which tells you were to download fast boot, adb etc along with what to type and when/where in command line prompt?

Thanks for the help.

Guys im stuck at unlocking the bootloader

On sony's site it says on step 13

13.On your computer, you will be asked for drivers. Point to the usb_driver folder where you placed the android_winusb.inf-file, and select the Android Boot loader Interface-file.

I cant find the Android Boot loader Interface-file. I put the android_winusb.inf-file in Program Files>Android>Android-sdk>extras>google>usb_driver

Any suggestions/Help?

Thank you

I have Sony Xperia Go from today and I will start developing but only one problem I have now about Sony things is "boot" things, bootloader things... all these things is new for me because I had HTC device and all HTC things is big diferent than Sony... for example first thing that I seen is bootloader mode working with black screen and there I not know which command is available in fastboot mode, for example there is no command "fastboot getvar all" like in htc ...etc. Than I analysed boot image (its ELF? Why? How to unpack? How to pack? Which software to use for unpacking, packing...etc?).... help me to understand how these things working in Sony and I will try to get something for us! For example I not understang how recovery working in this phone? Is this phone have dedicated partition for recovery or recovery is not dedicated? I am new to Sony world so I must to learn about Sony flash format things before I going to develop something... I am surre some one will help me

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ketxorange:
I see, i think I understand your problem. I've help my friend with their HTC root & unlocking before and I know what you meant by those fastboot thing. User will first need to install the CWM Recovery, and it works a little difference than HTC, you can refer here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1773227) it is basically the same process for Sony's phone before you can get to use custom ROM etc.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] munjeni:
Thanks but its not point... I no want tools, I want to create new tool for these things, but first I want to understand how it working on Sony Xperia devices... for example (basic thing) I am unable to create working elf file because I not know whick tool to use! Understand my problem? Allso other thing that confuse me is recovery (how recovery is packed with kernel)... these recovery on HTC devices have dedicated partition for recovery but Sony have recovery in the same partition with kernel so this thing confuse me. I want to start porting custom recovery that I used in most HTC devices but I am unable to create working elf file, so if you understand what I mean please help me!

sorry for the noob questions but...

... I'm a noob. :)

Ok, just got my Xperia Advance (ST27

A

) yesterday. Love the UI and almost everything on the phone except... the apps that I don't want that I can't delete. :mad:

So if I get the bootloader unlocked (downloading files for that now) and I have build # 6.0B.3.184 and I follow the instructions in the original post & flash this rooted kernel then I should be able to download busybox and super user from the marketplace (or whatever google is calling it today) and then I should be good for deleting anything & installing Titanium. I'll have GB with root permission and everything else is just like I have now (except for maybe needing to re-set up my user id info with gmail ect or install some apps).

Yes? Am I correct on all this?

Next question - as I bolded, I've got an ST27A not the i version. I think the only difference is the HSDPA bands but I don't know if fiddling with the kernel has any impact on the radios or not???

Hi

I have a badly bricked A500 I am trying to get up and running again. I have an 11 digit CPUID but not a 16 digit one. I did have it in a text file on my SD card however it seems to have been scrambled

Using the Power/Volume + combo, It will not load any update.zip proceeds and then hangs at "Booting recovery kernel image" the White on Black Acer logo is displayed.

Using Power/Volume - combo has no effect - Just freezes with white on black Acer logo

I can go into ATX mode via the Power/Reset combo and the Acer USB drivers are installed on my Windows 7 machine and when connect windows says an ATX device is connected.

But here's where my troubles start...

I have tried APX flash but it fails without giving a specific reason

I have tried using A500 manager but it fails to change modes or retrieve anything

I have tried HC_RollbackRom_3.2.1_Gen2_tdV4 but it fails

I have tried Nvflash but I recieve the following error msg on any command - "rcm Version OX4", "Command send failed (USB write failed)"

It would seem that even though connected by USB in ATX mode, my computer is unable to talk to the Pad - does anybody have any ideas what steps I can take to get out of this mess.

Any and all help appreciated
[Acer Iconia A500] blackthund3r:
11 digit CPUIDs aren't truly CPUIDs - they are android device IDs which do not apply here. Take a look at the SKB recovery thread to recover the CPUID from APX Mode. You can then convert CPUID => SBK using http://a500bootloaderflash.tk/sbkcalc/ :)
[Acer Iconia A500] subzone:
Hi BlackThund3r

I did a search for an SBK recovery thread as you suggested and found this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1751978 (Had been doing a lot of searching for CPUID but never thought to look for SBK :)

Anyway that thread describes exactly my situation, It would seem it's my bad for being a windows user ha ha but I have used Ubuntu before.

I don't have time to get Ubuntu and try the steps suggested until later tonight but as the thread describes exactly my problem I am confidant it will work so thank you very much in advance.

I will reply back here with the result - Again thank you for your time and quick response.

Is anyone using Multipicture Live Wallpaper on their Infinity? I just upgraded from the TF201 and now it won't display a different wallpaper on each home screen.

Any help would be appreciated.

[Asus Transformer TF700] timrock:
i have individual settings for each screen, but the only thing thats different betweene them is the actual wallpaper. My crop settings are Same as Common Settings. I'm really not doing anything different. I long press, choose wallpaper, live wallpapers, then choose Multipicture. Press settings, then click the option with the + next to it. Select which screen i want to change and then just choose my wallpaper and back out. When i back out, and get the "set wallpaper" screen, the wallpaper that shows is not actually what i chose. But when i set it, and go to the screen, it turns out to be the paper i chose. i will post shots in a few of my 5 screens.

What are the pros and cons of using Nova launcher? I haven't used a launcher since my Original Motorola Droid. Will it interfere with the OS or cause battery drain? I like the stock launcher but would like to get this working.
[Asus Transformer TF700] timrock:
its really really fast and smooth. you notice a difference right away. Thats probably the biggest advantage it has over other launchers. But, it does FC a lot. Probably to the point where you have to stop using it. I recently did a hard reset and just went back to stock. After they release an update, i may go back to it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] darkwolfelite:
I haven't had any FC's yet. (Crossing fingers) But I don't use my tablet alot so that could be why. Am also using the paid version, don't know if that matters or not but so far so good for me. I like Nova much better over stock, and I really like using the multipicture live wallapaper app. also it seems to me that the stock launcher on the Infinity can't use the app right because it doesn't have scrollable wallpaper. I say this because my friend who has a Transformer TF300 which does have scrollable wallpaper works just fine with the multipicture app. So it seems any home launcher with scrollable wallpaper may work... Not a 100% sure though

Hey Guys,

I am trying to use this on my Galaxy S3, I am using Nova Prime.

Even though which picture I want for which screen, I only get the same wallpaper for all of my screens....

This is how I am doing it: -

Long press on home screen.

Choose wallpaper

Then live wallpaper and then multi picture live wallpaper

I then go into the individual screen settings and chose the relevant wallpaper

I repeat this for all of the screens

I don't change any other settings / options, I then press the back button and press set wallpaper

Am I doing something wrong?

You may just have given me the solution on a very frustrating hour yesterday. Multipicture worked fine for me on my first setup attempt, but then all the sudden I get the same picture on all screens.

Hi Everyone! As a part of the usual process when I'm flashing a new phone, I start reading the forum to see what I can and cannot do. Believe it or not, this is the first android device that I own, every other phones weren't just mine. Now, I have two simple questions:

I've flashed some other phones, but in those I've never had to deal with modems or basebands (except from the nightmare called iPhone :P), I wanted to know, the roms come with their own Basebands and Kernels or I have to flash'em separately when upgrading to a new rom, OR I can use deriberatly the modem that works best? I ask this because so far I haven't seen any indications on the ROM threads and I saw the compilation post of Modems

As of the kernel I'm not so worried, I'll simply use Siyah's kernel ;)

Thanks!

Thanks for the answer, but I didn't explain myself. I saw that thread, actually I mentioned it above. I will have to test the various basebands, I live in Venezuela and there's no recommendation on the map for my country.

Now, resuming and explaining myself better, I just wanna know if Roms have their own Baseband and Kernels included (or just baseband for instance), and if there's any Baseband requirement on the roms -- Obviously there are Kernel requirements.

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 122ninjas:
They come with their own kernel and you can flash over that. Fairly certain they don't have a modem but don't quote me on that. You have to get a Sammy modem for a Sammy ROM and a aosp modem for an aosp rom

For clarification, the only difference in the actual modem from aosp to Sammy is the install script. The modem itself is identical.

Just to clarify this. Some roms have Aroma installer which gives various options or features to flash with your rom on the initial install. Depending on what the developer includes, different kernel and modem choices are possible.
