I would do mate but the only problem is I use this phone for work so I can't afford to let the cpw have it for 3 or 4 weeks as I've got nothing else to use :(

Think I'll just have to grin and bear it for a while and just hope that it's a firmware bug and a new update will fix it, or until I get something else ;)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Alex Slane:
Battery seems to be doing well mind.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] bioan:
You had data connection on all the time?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Alex Slane:
Sorry what do you mean mate?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] bioan:
You posted a screenshot with battery life and I saw the H symbol in the status bar. That stands for HSDPA -> Data Connection. Was it on all the time? Or you only turn it on when needed?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Alex Slane:
Ah got you mate, yeah I always have it turned on, why does that seem good to you then?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] bioan:
It is amazing. With data on, my phone is dead in max 10 hours... That is on standby.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Alex Slane:
Cool that's great then. This is as standard as well. Not rooted and no tweaks.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] paulwls:
thanks for sharing,it's perfect:good:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] BigD18t:
The minimum i get is 14 hours and that is with Wifi and Data on all day, sounds like something is draining your phone in the background.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] RagingHarry:
Wow, on stand by i get 4 full days, with average use 2 days.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] batman_112:
Same here. I suspect that there is a "culprit" app running in the background and draining the battery.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] bioan:
With data connection on? It drains about 3-4%/hour with data connection on...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] psychok9:

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] batman_112:
Yeah but, mostly (90% of the time) on WiFi.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] SanketN8:
i have downgraded my xperia T from latest jb firmware to .489

its good

just i get annoyed with the system update notification in the taskbar which is stuck there

does anyone know how to remove it
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Supersonic335:
remove UpdateCenter.apk from system/app -rooted phone only
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Alex Slane:
Hi mate just out of interest why did you downgrade?

Chris
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] SanketN8:
because on the latest firmware my phone used to get random shutdowns and the battery used to start heating

after that i had to soft boot it and then the phone used to start
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Alex Slane:
Ah ok fair enough mate.

---------- Post added at 01:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:00 PM ----------

Did you try a repair install???
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] SanketN8:
i did a repair before downgrading it but no effect

it was still shutting down

and another issue i have is that many of the pen drives i connect through otg give a usb power consumption error

only 2 pen drives worked till now :(
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] clank201:
Does anyone have the changelog?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Wobba-Lee:
Did the downgrade fix all your issues? I updated to 141 through PCC last week and haveing random shutdowns and reboots, repair didnt fix it.

If it worked just ou of interest which flashtool settings did you use?

Sorry I have a question, I want to know if i can install this on my xperia T because i am from switzerland, there will be any problem ? Sorry for my bad English.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] batman_112:
Yes, you can. No problem.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TheUNnamed:
is there any diffrence between the xperia T ROM and xperia TX ROM , becouse my xperia TX is chinese ROM and its not supported with Google app or play store !

or is it better wait for TX ROMs ?

Thanks ..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] batman_112:
Good question. I am really not sure. I would assume that they are the same but, I do not know for sure.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] julien_ps2:
Thank you. I have another question, Does this have the Bond theme ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] batman_112:
No. This is the generic firmware so it does not have the bond theme.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] masi0:
Can applyting brand-free rom can be done with the simlock?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] batman_112:
Yes it can. But, it will not unlock your SIM-lock.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] bucketsort:
This is not a retail build!

It's from developer or operator acceptance device.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] batman_112:
Yes, it is a retail build! I bought the phone from Clove UK.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] bucketsort:
Strange. Why is there a "function validation tool" included?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] JJD809:
Why "strange"? It is a junkapp along with others that Sony decided to add to their NXT phone roms. If you dont want or need it, simply remove it. Other crapware they also include is Wisepilot, Astro OfficeSuite, Neo Reader and so on. I suppose there was a demand for this. I had it on my phone but I simply removed it along with all the other unwanted crap.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] bucketsort:
There is a difference. Wisepilot is a fully functional app. The tool I'm referring to seems to be some QA tool left behind.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] janellover:
Thanks!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] JJD809:
Dude, you should stop speculating if you are unsure of your facts. You asked a question, you were given an honest answer, yet you still imply that the OP is lying. That is not nice. Normally phones have device testing options that's well hidden. As an example, enter *#*#7378423#*#* and see all the options you get including test options, does this also make the phone a QA or "developer or operator acceptance device" as you put it?

If you are still unhappy with this "some QA tool being left behind" then make a formal complaint about it to Sony....

Google/Bing/Yahoo is your friend...

Function Validation Tool

Description

Make sure that the core functions of your device works as intended. Many times the reason you think your device is not working is due to applications misbehaving. This is the tool that let you test the function with no fuzz. Test the Display or the Speaker or any other part of your device with no risk of bad applications disturbing your experience. Function Validation Tool not only test the function as such it also create a report that can be used if further action is needed.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] batman_112:
Would you like me to upload the purchase receipt of my phone from Clove?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] papped:
The carrier unbranded phones have the function validation tool... I got mine from clove and it's the same.

People need to chill.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] charlatan01:
So, I am really sorry about this, and I really feel like a mope at the moment, but flashtool prompts to enter fastboot mode or flashmode. Now, I can't find where to install the file from the fastboot options, but I can't figure out how to boot into flashmode. I'm sure this is just me being tired, but any help would be appreciated.

---------- Post added at 10:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 PM ----------

And of course, I figure it out 5 minutes after I post this. For anyone else interested, flashmode on Xperia T (like others) is achieved by plugging USB in while holding the VOL-DOWN button. Oh, and don't forget to install the drivers from the drivers folder in flashtool for flashmode.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] emuX:
I bought my XT from Carphone Warehouse and it came with this firmware and has the validation tool in the app drawer.

I wouldn't throw wild accusations around unless you know your facts - people might get upset. :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] r-l:
i want to flash this so i downloaded the rom

put it in the right folder en pressed flash.. then i have to choose between flash mode and flash boot (what do i choose?)

when i choose flash mode i have disconnect the phone, turn it off and boot in flash mode. how do i boot my Xperia T in Flash mode.

hope some can give a little help with this. Got my xperia T now for 1 day. i flashed alot but that was my Galaxy S and Galaxy tab 2 10.1 and that works alot different then this.

Thanks in advance
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Psy1208:
To boot in flashmode just hold Vol down while connection USB cable
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] r-l:
so press power, hold volume down and insert usb cable ?

i got in safety mode (left corner on my screen)

then nothing happens with flashtool, still the popup ask to unplug divece, power off, press back button and hold it (shows arc phone in picture), plug the usb cable
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Psy1208:
Don't press power. Just Vol down while pluggin in the Cable. The notification LED should be green then.

Maybe i mess it up with fastboot (Blue LED) then press Vol up while pluggin in ;)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] r-l:
then i get usb device not connected but i have installed sony pc companie and runned it:confused:

flashtool connects in flashmode but then disconnect because of the usb device is regonized ????
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Psy1208:
Do you have installed the drivers from the .../drivers/ folder from flashtool ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] r-l:
yes, the xperia tx drivers and the flashmode and fastboot drivers

reinstalling and get 2 failled ??

sony net failled

google inc usb failled

btw i'm running windows 8
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Psy1208:
Oh, i forgot to say .... you phone have to be switched off while connecting ... ;)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Download the latest version of flashtool v0.9.8.0 from the flashtool homepage.

Then install the drivers for the xperia TX (and/or NXT)

Xperia t was not supported in flashtoll untill v 0.9.6.0

Turn off phone.

count to 5

hold volume down button

plug in cable....

And its the x10 that is pictured as flashtool was first developed for the x10
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] r-l:
it is. it gets into flashmode (it says in flashtool it is) but because some driver issue (i quess) it disconnects after a few seconds
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Have you draged nd dropped the .ftf into the open window of flashtool yet.

Try doing that first, pick the .ftf and then connect in flashtool

Also, to make sure you have the proper drivers, download pccompanion and run a repair from there first.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] r-l:
i'm doing al that. Just tried to reinstall the drivers and i get this
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Psy1208:
Hmm i don't know then, this is also my first sony phone ...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] r-l:
how do you run a repair in pc companion ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Download pccompanion (Just google it)

Attach phone switched on

goto update

It will say you have the latest version, but there will be an option to repair.

Do that...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] r-l:
oke, gonna give that i try, will takes some time (pc comp says) will report back later.

Sorry for being a noob, but this is my first sony. Give me a samsung and i'll flash it with my eyes closed :p
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] r-l:
Same problem with PC Companion when wanted to go in flashmode, window with driver issues pops up :confused:

can it be a windows 8 problem ????

all ready send sony an email about it. Think PC Companion isn't compatible with windows 8 yet. still missing drivers and can't find anything on google
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Goto http://gordon-s-gate-flash-driver.software.informer.com/ and download and run the gordans gate drivers. I know it says for xp/vista/7 but it may work on 8.

I am sure its not a windows 8 issue. Try downloading sdk ( http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html ) and running the install update packages for 4.0.4 and google usb driver,
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] r-l:
the gordon s link links me to the dutch sony site and there i can't find anything :confused:

edit: found it on google

edit2: that didn't work, still gave me driver problems when the phone is and i want to start in flash mode. now installing sdk (fingers crossed)

Support Xperia TL?

Just got my TL yesteday from AT&T was wondering if it's safe to install this ROM. Will I lose 4G LTE?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Which firmware do you have?

Have you read the title to this?

This is not a ROM!

Finally, why dont you backup, do it, and report back if its OK?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] schaggo:
Is there a list somewhere which packages one is allowed to freeze/remove to debloat this rom (and quite possibly other stock roms) a little? I wildly guessed and disabled this and that...

Tapatalk @ Sony LT30p (Xperia T)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Spectre51:
Yes you will lose LTE as the international versions of the Xperia T don't have LTE. I will be testing flashing this firmware excluding the baseband to see if I can still keep LTE yet use an unbranded international firmware like we have done with the ion (though now we can just use the international LT28i firmware for the ion)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] enrique71:
You won't lose lte as long as you keep the lt30at firmware baseband.. Correct?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] xerothermic:
Correct

I don't care if I lose the LTE as my country doesn't have 4G support, would still see if I can skip 'upload baseband' thingy.

Many thanks for the upload.

Was able to flash this on lt3at :)

Works flawlessly and I love my device now :), no bloatwares and more importantly I control my device.

Strangely am not able to unlock BL (Checked the config thing says boot loader unlock allowed - NO)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] batman_112:
You will not be able to unlock the BL since the TL is an at&t device. So even if you flash generic FW you won't be able to unlock the BL.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] montsa007:
That's sad lol, but I don't care much as am happy with stock JB :)

All I need is good video plaback and music, which the stock firmware delivers :D

Many thanks for the upload.

I actually updated mine to JB by the evening as I was already in the midst of resyncing apps and stuff :p

But it feels great to cut the at&t bloatware, life is much smooth.

Re: [Stock FW] JELLY BEAN LT30p Stock UK GENERIC 4.1.2 9.1.A.0.489

What's the difference in bloat from UK to the European version that was posted last week?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] batman_112:
I am not sure. We'd have to ask someone who has installed both. This comes with all the regular Sony stuff.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] sshariff:
I had initially flashed Europe generic. Today my phone sound stopped working so I need to send for repair, and therefore installed UK generic. I can see around 7 - 8 extra bloat apps in the UK one. For example UK generic has Diagnostics, Play magazines, Play Music which Europe does not have. These are all I can remember off the top of my head but there are definitely around 7 - 8 extra bloat apps judging by the difference in the number of apps in the app drawer. Apart from that can't see any differences.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ruwsoft:
In addition, there is Play Movies, G+ Messenger, PlayMemories Online, Lets start PSM, (latitude has now been removed after update to maps), Astro (file manager - somewhat useful & wasnt present in European)

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
If you have unlocked the bootloader just flash an unsecure kernel, i.e the team win recovery kernel found in the dev section.

Or flash one of the several prerooted JB roms from the dev section.

hi guys,

i got the update to JB via the PC companion, however my phone is from Vodafone UK and the status of the bootloader is locked, will their be any difference in the BL status if i flashed as this threat suggests?? as per what i read i need to roll back to .303 then root the phone, install the CWM for locked BL and then update...this is a long process and if it will not unlock the BL then no use of it

BTW i tried to flash the European version but when i connect in fastboot mode, i got this error log in flashtool:

EDIT: and how to root the phone after getting JB? am unable to root it using the bin4ry tool??
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] schaggo:
Uhm... this thread does not suggest this at all. If so, point me to the exact post please.

If you want root, yes, correct. Flashing/updating via PC Companion will ALWAYS unroot your device though, you have to go the manual path of updating via CWM.

Flashing does not touch the bootloader. Never did. Probably never ever will. You're confusing the terms root and unlock, I suspect.

Yes, your device is bootloader locked. Fastboot flashing is only possible on unlocked devices.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] akuryuto:
thanks for the reply,

im not mixing up terms, maybe i didnt say it correctly so it appeared like misleading, sorry for that

now since my BL is looked i cant root and i cant install CWM, i tried some posts regarding installing the CWM for locked BL but it seems that they dont work for my phone after the update , but need to go and try them again though

but is their any other post that have rooted the phone after updating via PC companion?? it seems most of them are related to ICS which worked for me before but now it dont!!

and since it gave me errors when trying using flashtool, it may not even work to roll back to ICS!! any ideas?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Incorrect, you can root all locked bootloader phones.

You need to downgrade in flashtool then install it

No, updating via pccompanion will unroot your phone.

Use flashtool to downgrade, root, install cmw then upgrade using CMW to whichever rom you want.

Please post the output log so we can help you

---------------------------------------

If you want to unlock the bootloader, do it via the official way, it makes life so much easier because you can then flash custom kernels that are prerooted in JB without having to downgrade.

Which FTF are you trying to flash? It could be a bad download

Either unlock your bootloader and flash a custom prerooted kernel or downgrade to .303 ICS, root, install CMW and flash a stock based custom rom which is pre rooted and then flash the stock JB kernel in fastboot (or in flashtool using fastboot mode)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] zaky1:
If i rooted my phone (bl loocked) and i flashed this .ftf , I will be able to keep root ? Thanks
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] schaggo:
No, this is flashed over flashtool and overwrites everything. If you want this yet keep root, you must install CWM for locked bootloaders, download the deodexed JB flashable zip and then flash that using CWM. Check the respective threads for information.
