Why I paused it...why I want it...

Guys the real problem is not to locate the chip or write the unlocked boot loader in it. The real problem is to unsold a working chip having unlocked boot loader. Then we have to have sockets to tightly hold the chips so that all the required points remain attached through read / write process. Then comes the hardest part: soldering the newly flashed chip on the phone.

I believe the sockets are not impossible to find or even make but one has to have a proper equipment to solder a new chip on the phone's motherboard successfully. If any of the pins misses or any two of the pins get short circuit, who knows what will be the consequences. And believe me, the old chip is nearly impossible to solder back to its place once removed.

Having said all of this, I am willing to take the risk but I have to gather proper equipment first. Please share if you find anything helpful.

To those good fellows who keep saying that its better to have a new phone than trying to accomplish this, I have to say that this is not about increasing the memory to save cost. Tell me the first time you successfully installed your first android custom rom, unlocked the boot loader, or flashed custom kernel, didn't you feel great? Just imagine how will I feel if I get it to work
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MnM:
How about this. M pretty much sure that nobody would install apps of 2GB on the XpU because if the low RAM. So what if we could just repartition the memory chip to allot only 1GB to apps. This way atleast we can get 1GB more storage. I dont know how it can be done. Will need some expert advice ;)

Does XPERIA U has an available card slot

If there is an available slot on XPERIA U, then we could all figure it out and test it OR we could add such one. We only see here 4gb internal memory storage for not much mp3's, games and a bunch of extra files. But how about a much BIGGER apps that could see fit inside XPERIA's card slot. I guess we should take some risk just to get more further to the edge on discovering it's full limitations on these XPERIA Phones. :rolleyes:

---------- Post added at 08:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:24 PM ----------

This is the only thing that i have in mind, look fellas, they have developed these phones BUT they didn't make it ROOTED or rather unlocked it's BOOTLOADERS, right? Why? Because they believe that the young developers such as like us here in XDA has the idea to make the impossible thing into POSSIBLE WAYS. Look, many have creating boot animations, ROMS, and so forth. Yes, here it is as we all see. Now, i believe there is a possible way that these developers may discover, make and create that kind of idea. I know that somewhere in XPERIA's phones we may find the answer to this.:rolleyes:
[Desire General] deepakskht1:
hi,

A friend of mine wanna buy a droid and asked me for advice.I recommended hTc desire c.

I have got few doubts about the phone

1.Camera quality(5 mp fixed focus camera,a little bit worried about this)

2.600 MHz CPU

3.Battery life

If anyone here used this phone plz post ur personal review here! Thanks in Advance
[Desire General] scotcruz:
I bought this phone two days ago and am very disappointed. Let alone the camera, the 600 MHz CPU is so slow. The screen is no way like the HTC phones as you have to press an icon multiple times. I havent been able to find any files to flash this phone. (there is one on Shipped roms, but its a Verizon one). The battery is OK

Basically, its a HTC Wildfire in a different shell.. I am gonna sell this phone either today or tomorrow as its a heavy let down !
[Desire General] island3r:
Have you tried asking in the Desire C forums?
[Desire General] Ravens97:
Camera isnt too bad,although fixed focus can be annoying at night, but I seem to get average quality pictures from it. CPU is slow at times but not horribly slow, good amount of memory to. Although I'm going to carry on using my desire for now. Battery life is also quite decent to though, get through a day easily maybe two.
[Galaxy S III General] emahmood87:
I wish to know that why people get excited over a new android version. I mean we have all functionality including flash on ics so why be excited over jelly bean or any new version. I mean isnt android ics perfect already on sgs3 . Why want to update to new versions. iOS or windows users get happy over an update because they r restricted like recent introduction of panorama just recently in ios and micro sd card option for windows user, as far as I say how has android improved since gingerbread.ics seems perfect to me coz it's already buttery smooth. Just wondering ?
[Galaxy S III General] irish-sid:
exactly, Android is boss right now, so what's wrong with getting excited over some extra bits and bobs?
[Galaxy S III General] sidthegreatest:
You wouldn't be asking this if you had experienced Jelly Bean on the GSIII after using ICS.

Jelly Bean is wayyyy smoother, also there are obviously many many more improvements over ICS that you or I will probably never notice, but they do make our experience better.
[Galaxy S III General] EduMonzter:
you can use flash in jb. I can do in jb same things I done in ics. System now is faster and smoother
[Galaxy S III General] Nas Eiesefpi:
Because we love flashing new rom. :D
[Galaxy S III General] smokeweedevery:
because people like to get new and better things, especially advanced user. I believe you are some of the only people who complain about getting a new update. and flash is also working in jelly bean:)
[Galaxy S III General] projectsome:
simple things like google now.

it's like when you're favourite movie gets a sequel or artist brings out a new song.
[Galaxy S III General] jayc1980:
Because in don't like ice creams but I love jelly beans, especially the red and black ones! :D
[Galaxy S III General] irzero:
People keep saying this.

I tested side by side and they dont behave any different
[Galaxy S III General] irish-sid:
exactly. like pulling down the notification bar dims the background screen.not exactly 'useful', but pretty tasty.
[Galaxy S III General] emahmood87:
Yeah i know u can use flash on Jelly bean too. I have actually flashed alot of roms, in fact using the latest JB right now :).... yup agreed google now is one of the things in jelly bean, but still. Anyhow I am always happy to c new updates but i think we only see marginal improvements coz its already perfect as ics. and to be honest speed and stability is something which is exactly the same after some period of use either on ics or jelly bean.
[Galaxy S III General] jbluzb:
I am looking forward for 200 hundred new features. =D
[Galaxy S III General] barondebxl:
Well based on your logic, android should stay on ICS and not try to improve things cause ICS is perfect......
[Galaxy S III General] sohebq:
If you adon't like flashing and trying out new things, xda is not the place for you. The best thing i like about Google is the continous work on updates or else it would become an ios...
[Galaxy S III General] skchattha:
Because this Android wonderful phone i mean wonderful toy has lot to give for time pass to all these people which you can't understand. Their life almost move around the phone only. Sleeping, waking up everything its addiction they live their life. Their life is dedicated to phone. Phone, phone and just phone :D

Or you suggest what else is the best time pass? Watching TV? NO! reading newspaper, uh so boring! The same news if read on S3, wow what a charm :laugh:

If they are missing lot of important things in life, so what! they have S3 weapon in their hand, no body can beat them.

So proud of you the XDA army, keep it up :good:
[Galaxy S III General] graffixnyc:
I will say this from what I have noticed and I noticed it back when Honeycomb was coming out. Everyone said "Oh Honeycomb is where it is, it's so nice and smooth and the UI is beautiful screw GB" then when ICS came out it was "HC is laggy and sucks, ICS is the sh*T and is so fast and smooth, it's what HC should have been" etc.... Now that JB is out you hear a lot of the same about ICS as you did about HC when ICS came out. It's just an observation and find it kinda funny
[Galaxy S III General] barondebxl:
Well thats a good thing if you think about it, that means each new release is better than the previous one.

Also HC never really received great praises, it is the least version of android talked about ( also cause it was tablets but apparently wasn't that great).
[Galaxy S III General] Deleted member 4845507:
because we are not iPhone users, we love to flash new roms, nightlies lol.

Its all about brincking and fun
[Galaxy S III General] LJE:
I heard we get a new row of icons...

*highfive*
[Galaxy S III General] jerricson:
There are hundreds of new tweaks and many new features are being introduced in every new android updates. Just Google don't advertise them like other phone manufacturers :). If android gets stuck with Jb and no other future updates, then the whole android modding community will be clueless about what to do next.
[Galaxy S III General] emahmood87:
I know there might be plenty of tweaks in every update but was just thinking about year or two from now when everyone will be saying why don't we have the latest update like when the K and L update of google comes to nexus phones...secondly functionally of stock touch wiz is way more then stock android experience... Just my opinion ...
[Galaxy S III General] ABC_Universal:
Looking forward better performance and/or new features. Phone is not just a tool but also a toy, at least to me.
[Galaxy S III General] BOZG:
I believe "GTFO" applies for the OP.
[Galaxy S III General] Jay Ssj:
becoz jb is very smooth and fast which enhances our experience with our fones!
[Galaxy S III General] pewpew345:
Well OP, humanity always strive to progress in many fields, it's in the nature of the majority of people here. It's like saying that a car is fast enough and efficient enough when in reality, fuel efficiency and acceleration can still be improved.
[Galaxy S III General] dr.m0x:
Constant improvement is the nature of life.

At least Android version bumps look and feel different from their predecessors. I can tell if a phone is on Gingerbread, ICS, or Jellybean simply by observing the layout of the operating system.

It could be worse. For example ios 6 looks exactly like ios 5 except you can see Facebook status updates in the contacts app, annoys off your Facebook friends by posting every web site you visit and camera shot you take, and it now gives you directions to hospitals and gas stations which don't exist.
[Galaxy S III General] jithendra194:
I would like to see increased frame rate ..I mean more than 60fps and more smoothness and few more features (what am I talking ? Lol android already has all features ) but as long as there is room for creativity , android will get more features
[Galaxy S III General] kickassdave:
It's hard to discern anything beyond 60fps, hard but not impossible. But for that reason any more is kind of pointless.

I want to see customisation at the very heart of Android like MIUI in a sense where themes are freely available to all and you can fully customise the stock UI without the need for custom ROMs or 3rd party apps. These are the things your general Android noon isn't really aware of too but to me make Android so enjoyable and make me keep wanting to play with my phone.

you'll most likely require a rooted devices and the appropriate keylayout files. Some devices already have them installed in /system/usr/keylayout or /data/system/devices/keylayout but I haven't looked to see if the Tab 7+ does or not.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wwd10:
Hello,

I have a UK version of the S3 (i think its the I9300) About a month ago I had it unlocked from the 3 network (UK) by one of the hundreds of shops that offer unlocking services.

When the phone was unlocked I could enter *#7465625# and it would say that the phone was unlocked to all networks ( I don't remember the exact words) Anyway all was good until last night when my phone upgraded something (I got a reminder in the notification bar that there was an upgrade available) - I've done this before. Now it is saying that the phone is SIM network locked again. And I am unable to enter the code to see whats up.

When I got it unlocked, I was told (obviously incorrectly) that once the code has been entered the phone can never lock itself to a network.

It seems to me, that somewhere in the upgrade 'Three' (who the phone was locked too) has made the phone relock itself.... Has anyone else had this problem, or can point me to the right forum. FYI I am on the O2 network.

Thanks in advance.

Seems like a bit of a nuisance, if every time the phone upgrades it relocks... Perhaps I need to Root the phone..

Hey everyone.

I am running stock ics 4.0.3 , with Hydrocore kernel also my device is rooted and have CWM mod.

Im just wondering how i go about getting Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean via ParanoidAndroid custom ROM.

Using the download off the rom on the site:

http://www.androidauthority.com/gal...-4-1-1-jelly-bean-paranoidandroid-rom-116835/.

Any help is appreciated thank you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yin-Yang:
Since you are on Hydracore it is safe to wipe. But just to be sure just take a nandroid backup, by Booting in to recovery

Selecet Backup & restore--> Select Backup & do a nandroid backup Then just follow the installation procedure below

Keep both the ROM & Gapps file on your SD card

Wipe data / factory reset

Wipe Cache Partition

Go to Advanced - > Wipe Dalvik Cache

Select Install Zip from SD Card--> Select either internal card or SD card (external sd ) based on where you kept the file-->Install the zip file of the ROM

Same way Select & install the Gapps package

Go Back & wipe Cache Partion & Dalvik Cache once again

Reboot & you are Paranoid...:good:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] letters_to_cleo:
the best advice I can just offer you is to go to the respective Paranoid Android ROM thread and post this question there. There many people there as well willing to help you. Or you can wait for someone who has PA already on their device and perhaps they can give you some nice info on how to go about installing PA on your phone.

sorry, I can't do much help on you as I'm not using JB for now.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] singh.harvinder:
You can flash any custom rom if you are on safe kernel, hydracore is safe and you can simply boot into cwm recovery and flash the rom zip followed by gapps.

Skickat från min GT-N7000 via Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yin-Yang:
I think you need to read instructions to the point before carrying them out. I had posted you the method for installation of PA which so far as I know is the correct one coming from any non AOSP based ROM. Pls. do follow the instructions. In case you are in doubt just ask for a reconfirmation.

Also any ROM developer will have the instructions posted in the OP thread, which you should definitely follow.

As others have told you, do a full wipe coming from a non AOSP based ROM..
