[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tinyXperia:
Am I reading correctly that you have a 4.1.2 ROM from a brown phone?

Doesn't this require an unlocked bootloader?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Pakman123:
i will try this see what happens, could you upload .ftf ?

i can't download the back up file keeps stopping
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tinyXperia:
Was it even possible to flash the kernel?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Pakman123:
nah need a .ftf file plus i don't think you can unlock the boootloader on any xperia sx
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tinyXperia:
So, that renders this leak useless, since it's only for brown phones. I feel sorry for you guys, buying a €500 phone that doesn't get any updates...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Pakman123:
yh this is useless but if jb is on brown phones then we will be getting official jb at some point so just have to wait. my xperia sx runs bug and lag free so don't see the point having loads of updates :P
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] nroberto13:
not sure if you saw my reply, will try once again.

Is this offer still available? sent you a PM with some questions...

look forward hearing from you!

thanks.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kkoff:
I did sent you pm but I didn' get any answer from you, is this offer still valid?

Xperia SX is available

Sorry! Took me a long time to pin down a reliable enough supplier. This phone is hard to find even in China (and Japan from what I hear).

I will have some phones in stock within 10 days or so. Colors available are black, white, and orange. There are 3 models available - China, Hong Kong, and Japan. The Japan model is locked to NTT Docomo I believe. China and HK are unlocked. All have the same internals and same color choices. I'll post here once I have at least 5 available and link to ebay.

Thanks! Feel free to contact with any more questions. Super excited to have finally found this phone! Spread the word!

Hi all

I

will

be getting this phone in stock but not as soon as I originally thought. I am travelling to China and won't be back until 4/22. If all goes right, I will be bringing a bunch of the phones back. Additional ones I will be ordering through the mail. So no Xperia SX from me until 4/22. PM me with requests and/or questions.

Thanks!

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] td101:
where in China are you going to?

i wanted to buy another SX and contacted a dealer in Beijing (found on zol.com.cn). It was said that they will have it after three days, but even after one week they couldnt get it into their store.

and last week i was in Japan and went to two NTT stores. But there it was also not available anymore.

Does anyone know if there may be a successor model anytime soon?

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bmold86:
I am going to Shanghai. Took me a lot of searching to find a reliable source for it in China. Haven't been to Japan but have heard it's very hard to find there as well. I have seen several for sale on Yahoo auctions Japan and Rakuten auctions.

ROM for SX and GX interchangable?

hi,

i found a ftf of 7.0.1.D.137 of xperia GX (SO-04D - the twin model auf SX. (actually i found *.bin-files and made the ftf myself with flashtool).

Does anybody know if this ROM can be flashed on SX (SO-05D)?

i will try anyway when i got my laptop working again, but maybe anybody here has an idea or advise about this.

i think it should be possible, shouldn't it?

and another thing: i tried to unlock the bootloader of my SX to try the JB-CWM-rom which was posted earlier in this thread.

but it is failing, although my phone says "bootloader unlock allowed: yes" and i got unlock code on sony website.

has anybody successfully unlocked the bootloader?

btw: my phone seems to be a "brown phone". can't update via SEUS.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Chiky33:
Hi,

How keep root from 7.0.1.D.130 on 7.0.1.D.137.

I don't find or undertsand Japan language, unfortunately.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Pakman123:
1. check if you have got the fastboot drivers installed

2. open fastboot folder and press shift and right click on mouse and select " open command window here"

3. Put phone in fastboot (by turning off the phone hold volume up and connect usb to pc and phone)

fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0x

Add key after the x and copy the command to fastboot hope it works for you :D

aslo gx firmware might not work because the kernels are different

Hi,

One trick for cut the "LTE" 4G , because the frequency is not the same like in Japan and the mobile search network and drain down battery :

Phone book => Call => *#*#4636#*#* => First menu => Network type => Choice

- WCDMA preffered

- GSM only

- WCDMA only

- GSM auto (PRL)

- CDMA auto (PRL)

- CDMA only

- EvDo only

- GSM/CDMA auto (PRL)

- LTE/CDMA/EvDo

- LTE /preferred/WCDMA/GSM

- LTE/CDMA/EvDo/GSM

- LTE only

- Unknown

After choice one => Quit

I put WCDMA only (3G), because the 3G Network is full cover in Switezerland, or WCDMA preffered (3G/2G)

Have a nice day.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Pakman123:
1. open flashtool and click on tools tab

2. select sin editor

3. select your sin and click Dump Data

4. once done you should have a new file called system.ext4

5. you can extract system.ext4 ext4_unpacker

Cool !

But do you really have an unbranded sx? (Non DoCoMo)

My shipment of Xperia SXs has been delayed because of strict regulations of shipping lithium ion batteries.

Hi,

I got Asphalt 7 for free from gameloft because moderncombat 3 doesn't work on my tf300 and they can't fix it.

The race game works good but i saw that u can change the graphics and other things in deviceconfig.xml but when i change something the game will download the normal deviceconfig.xml again and replace it with the one i changed. Is there a way i can bypass that data checking thing?
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] damagedgoods:
You need to make sure the edited .xml file is exactly the same size as the one you pull out of the .obb

Also, the tweaks that were done for v1.0 won't work for the latest release. Seems GL are determined to cripple every release on all Tegra 3 devices.

Hamdir did the initial research on this but last time I saw he wasn't looking to spend any more time on it. I've got a working config for the One X I just need to get around to doing the final tweaks but once its done I'll look at getting one here too. The I/O may be an issue on the Asus but I don't know without checking.
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] xSvenHD:
Ok thanks for your reply but the asphalt 7 data is stored in a map not in a file on my tf300

I will try to have it the same space
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] damagedgoods:
Unless the tf300 is different to the One X the files are in /sdcard/Android/obb/com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA7HM

Inside this directory is a bunch of .bin files and an archive called main.101.com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA7HM.obb

To access the files you need you change that .obb extension to a .zip and open the archive on your computer. DO NOT UNPACK IT. Just open it and navigate to /data/DeviceConfig/ and unpack DeviceConfig.xml It should be 22.15kb

This is the file that tells your device to pretend it's not as good as a Samsung Galaxy S3. Can't imagine why that would be....;) I would imagine the Tegra tablets like the tf300 are classified the same as the One X and use the settings labelled 'Android_Medium' Edit the settings to suit your requirements but do be careful not to go too crazy. Some settings will really send the game for a Burton. A safe bet is to copy the S3 settings and w ork from there. Go with 'true' for the high quality shaders on cars and buildings and turn reflections on for starters.

Now, this is the key bit. The file you finish with must be EXACTLY the same size as the one you started with. If a setting changes from "false" /> to "true" /> be sure to include an extra space. Tweak the spaces until the file sizes match. SAVE A BACKUP OF THE ORIGINAL DEVICE CONFIG FILE!!!

Save the edited file to your desktop and drag it into the /data/DeviceConfig/ archive. It will take a long time to copy across even though its only 22kb. Finally, once the file has been copied and compressed you must rename the archive back to .obb from .zip or the game will want to download the 1.4Gb of data again. Every time I've done this the game has told me it needs to install another 1mb of data before it runs. As long as the file I create is the same as the original the changes seem to hold. Not sure what it downloads and quite frankly I don't care. Now the game runs as it should and looks lush.

Fuuuuck you Gameloft!!!!

Sent from my partners TF300T - That's what your mum said!!

EDIT: Thanks go to Hamdir for doing this. I'm simply spreading the luuuuurve.
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] xSvenHD:
Well the game data on my tf300 is stored like this: sd/android/data/nameofthegamemap there are all the files including devicecofig.xml

I bought the game from gameloft website it self.

EDIT: for some reason i can't upload photo's.

And when i replace or put 1 letter the file goes from 22.94 to 22.52 and when i change it back to normal it stays at 22.52
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] damagedgoods:
Well yeah that's what you'd expect. I've given an example below:

--Stock DeviceConfig.xml-- - section copied from Medium-Hidev class devices : "android_medium"

<bool name="use_dynamic_reflection_on_cars" value="false" />
<string name="showTrackLowLODDistance" value="MEDIUM" />
<bool name="use_gamma_luminance"	value="false" />

Look at that. Once you've shaken off the natural urge to burn whoever set those values take a look at how the different values are laid out.

--Tweaked DeviceConfig.xml-- - section pasted into Medium-Hidev class devices : "android_medium"

<bool name="use_dynamic_reflection_on_cars" value="true" />
<string name="showTrackLowLODDistance" value="FAR" />
<bool name="use_gamma_luminance"	value="true" />

On every line you remove a letter, you add a space. If you add a letter, you remove a space. Just be mindful that there is a lot of tabulation in the file which I've removed here. Just set the values you want, play around with the formatting and when the file sizes match it's happy days.

Get involved.
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] xSvenHD:
Ok thanks for your short tutorial :)

But when even if the file is the same size i get the 1mb download data. And when i download that it replace the edited deviceconfig with the normal one. :confused:

Do you know a solution?

Thanks
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] damagedgoods:
To be honest, no. I get that to but my file stays the same. Maybe something to do with file permissions??
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] ppmeis:
Ok I made some modifications on this game...and now it looks AMAZING! Compare yourselve with screenshots below:

BUT if you copy the game on internal SD framerate will be very laggy. I used DirectoryBind to move data files to External SD and now I can play almost smooth all the time (almost means if there's lot of cars on the screen game will lag a bit).

i gonna try that!

Is this on tf300?

asphalt 7

I guys, I try yours procedure but without success. I tried to rename the obb file in zip, find the deviceconfig. XML and then paste the one I find here, nothing.. The game is still low res... Did you notice there is a device configuration. XML also in the main game directory? Do we have to do something with this one?

I guess my Asphalt 7 version is the latest... Waiting for your tips... ****ing gameloft...
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] marcomesa:
Today I did another try:

1) I try to open the xxxxxyy.obb file and add the devicecongig.xml...no software can do this. In fact from 7 zip to winrar they sad me impossible, archive corrupt and so on.

2)I try to manual edit the devicecongig.xml and add in every row of "medium device" "FAR" or "true". I start the game nothing change, same crappy graphic. I come back and I find out the devicecongi.xml come back to the previous version.

This is very annoying, in the screenshot it seems very cool game, and I have a tegra 3 that is supposed to be the best in graphic gaming...and in my tablet asus tf300 the game look like a ps1 game

daoes anybody find out a solution and want help me?
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] ppmeis:
OK I'm back again, but I have to do some changes on my tablet and I have to test it again. Once I'm done and tested I'll share my DeviceConfig file. Stay tuned.
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] marcomesa:
Thanks, and could you tell me how to add the deviceconfig.xml file to the obb archive...no software actually ca do it. Every software say "archive corrupted" or something similar...
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] ppmeis:
I use 7-zip :).
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] marcomesa:
me too...but 7-zip says "not implemented" windows xp and the last 7-zip avaible. Renamed obb file in zip, tar or rar...same result

:(
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] ppmeis:
Right click on the file -> 7-zip -> open compressed. No need to change extention file.
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] marcomesa:
I did it...sigh I'm so sad, it seems I'm the only one that can't delete the file and add the new one...maybe windows xp issue?
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] ppmeis:
Ok i finished editing and testing in-game functionality...and it chaged the graphics a lot :). Modified DeviceConfig attached.

Changelog:

LOD Distance changed to FAR

Optimize dynamic reflection

Added traffic shadows

Hires Map

Added blur on impact

Gamma Luminance

Enabled car shaders

Enabled car reflection on garage.

There's a bit bug but I think It's not my fault lol. After the blue effect just when I use full gauge turbo, gamma Luminance turns off until you use it again full turbo or after a cinematic effect. But overall the performance is much better now.

I also upload a backup file if someone have problems :).
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] marcomesa:
:crying:

Thanks Can't wait to try it...but 7zip still tell me "not implemented" am I the only one with this issue? Even if I try to unzip the file 7zip say me the archive is corrupted...

can'tbe because the game works and I downloaded it from playstore...

---------- Post added at 06:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:52 PM ----------

I find out in internet if you get this error it means the archive is a "solid" archive...this means you can't add or delete any file inside tha archive. Ok sound reasonable..but why you have same tablet, same software and you can? I'm confused...have you jellybean on your tablet? I do...
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] ppmeis:
Mine is a purchased Asphalt 7, be sure that your file type is obb and it's not corrupted, try Winrar or something like it...the file is main.101.com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftA7HM.obb and it's on /Android/obb folder.
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] marcomesa:
Yessss it works...

I download again the file and with my laptop I can add your file,

then the game ask me for another Mb to download and then I have a totally different game, the car looks really better and also the enviroment has great texture...

thanks man...now I know what to do and how to do...so I will follow all your mod deviceconfig.xml...

:D
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] jzen:
Ok i got this working on my tf300 also! Looks great but plays like poop!

I have been messing around with directorybind and finally got it working :)

Seems to be a little smoother, I will try faster class microsd and also mess with this config a little more.

THanks for all the help here!
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] marcomesa:
Jzen could you tell me how to move the game to sd? In settings / applications I didn't find "move to sd"
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] xSvenHD:
You need a app like directorybind and you need root. I have lost my root with updating but my game runs smooth with the deviceconfig from ppmeis.

Sorry for my bad English Sent From My TF300
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] jzen:
Yes, you will need root.

and this app:

DirectoryBind

Just make sure to set the the path to "Removable\MicroSD\DirectoryBind\" and not what is has as default.

I can kinda see why gameloft set the settings to low. Doesnt seem tegra 3 can handle the high gfx settings. But i will keep trying.

UPDATE:

Got a Sandisk class 10 32gb MicroSD and now all my games run smooth and load fast :)
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] marcomesa:
So I need to move the app to sd? Because I start playing and the game is little bit laggy...not so much, but you can easly notice the framerate is not so high,,,usign this directory bind I kinda solve this right? Now I should root my tf300...but I'm also totally scared to brick it...
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] martynasmck:
Could you post the asphalt 7 apk file?
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] xSvenHD:
no you need to buy it.
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] jzen:
Buy the game...

Its worth rooting and using directorybind to solve the lagg in some games and improve fps overall. Follow the guides here on the forum and follow the directions word for word and you will be rooted and running great!
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] marcomesa:
I bought the game... It was only 25 cent... And now with the custom device configuration file works like a charm... The only problem it's my tf300 has been updated to jellybean... I read there's no clear guide to root it with this os... Am I wrong?
[Transformer TF300T Themes and Apps] Vidfreek:
I just rooted mine today from stock jellybean, no issues
