Xperia Sola doesnt get into Fastboot mode

I own an Xperia sola, was trying to get to fastboot mode. I cant get into it. Blue light stays on for about 10 seconds and then the phone starts charging. I have a locked boot loader and am running stock ICS sola India version. i can get into flash mode but not fastboot mode. can any one help?

:(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] xxrahulxx:
I had the same problem too. When i had manually installed the Adb and fastboot drivers.

Later, I downloaded Flashtool and installed Sola's drivers that came bundled with it and the problem was solved.

GoodBye and thank you for everything

Hi,

After 18 months of faithful devotion, my SOLA's battery started to run out on me. It was time to change...

Just wanted to thank all the developers and power users in here, who made my SOLA do what Sony could never imagine.

Thank you all!!! :highfive:

Moving on to greener pastures with a Xperia ZR or an SP :victory:

Try to extract it from another rom. (Sola's maybe the bet could be JB Rom or any newer CM rom)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SharpnShiny:
Hi guys, I'm considering updating 2.3 to 4.0 for my brother's Sola. When we tested the first firmware of ICS, it was very slow (too little RAM for ICS). What is	6.1.1.B.1.54 version like? Is it as fast as 2.3? More than new features, I think my brother prefers speed.

Many thanks for any replies
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Rannzzroxx:
I guess Glove Mode is the only bloatware that's been added in the ICS version.So,it should be fast enough for you to work with it.

Hey guys my sister needs an android phone but can only spend 100 euros, so I found a sola and an xperia u for that price. I wanted to know if the sola is worth it. Does it lag a lot? Thanks in advance.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Rannzzroxx:
The specs of both the phones are pretty much the same.But I reckon the xperia U is comparitively better,taking its pros & cons into account (Barring the screen size as the sola has a screen which is bigger than that of Xperia U,which,I think will not matter the most).And yes,both U and Sola lag to an extent and they owe it to their 512MB RAM
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sikolymester:
I flashed a ROM based on munjeni's Jelly Bean port.

It is up and running, but I'd like to revert to my original ICS.

Question: Can I just use Flashtool to flash my Sola .ftf firmware back at once. Or do I by any chance need to flash the original kernel back using fastboot first?

Any comment would be appreciated.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sgmini:
No, original kernel is included on ftf, just flash the ftf

Xperia sola cm11 music issues

Hi

I recently installed cm11 Jan31 build on my sola.

Phone is working very smooth and much faster than stock sony rom.

However I am facing issues with music.

Whenever I play music and then open another app (like browser, play store etc) the music stops playing after a few seconds.

I have tried this with various music apps like apollo, rocket player and dood's music player.

I have extensively searched web but found no solution.

Can anybody help out with this.

Sorry if this is not the right thread, this is my first post in xda forums.

Thanks
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Aniruddha10:
I don't think it's the application fault. It probably happens because there is no memory, so apps in the background get closed.

Try deleting apps that you don't use much and are constantly running in the background. Or freeze them.

This problem is common on devices with low ram.. :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pharaoh324:
Hi Aniruddha

It used to run properly on the stock rom with same apps running which makes me think that it is not because of ram issue.

Also I checked the free ram after opening one of the other apps, there is around 100 mb of free ram before it was killed.

Thanks
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Aniruddha10:
I see, well I have the same issues sometimes. Well the new custom roms don't have as good ram management as the stock ones..

Maybe use greenify. Sorry but I don't know of any proper solution.. :/
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pharaoh324:
I reinstalled the custom rom. But the same issue is still existing. I am now trying Greenify and 'Keep my opera' apps. I will see how it goes for 4-5 days. However the phone is working very well. I will live with this issue. Hopefully it will get fixed in a future update.

i turned back to stock ics. tried all roms, GB, ICS, JB, KITKAT :) i dont like them. all of them have bugs. ram management is terrible, it drains battery. i cant use facebook messenger, whatsup, torch, keybord. all of them suddenly stop. it make me crazy. i turned back stock ics and root it. delete many apps; like timescape, some google apps, many sony apps. and i have a clean phone :) it is very smooth. i have enough ram and nothing get close suddenly :) evrything works fine. i give up to change roms every week :)

RAM Management? Kitkat FTW :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] silomgs:
I turned back to a rooted stock ICS after trying several roms, although i have to admin I haven't tried the latest ones, and now I seem to have the 'WIFI channels 12-13 not available' problem. I tried WIFI fix manager but after each reboot or airplane mode the setting is gone, and sometimes after I enable the application the wifi doesn't work at all unless i reboot my phone and that's no so convenient when it happens.

I have some programming and database manipulation knowledge so I searched through the xda forums and tried some of the manual ways (e.g. putting the wifi_country_code=EU in the settings.db using sqlite3 or adding the wifi_allowed_channels=14) but haven't achieved anything.

Is there any way/script to fix it permanently in the ICS stock rom that probably i'm not aware of?

Thank you in advance.

A happy sola user

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] xxrahulxx:
Hey everyone,

I have been a problem with my Sola. Whenever I insert my audio system's 3.5mm jack into my Sola, the touchscreen goes crazy.. I behaves somewhat similar to what people have been experiencing while inserting chargers. The OS seems unresponsive and touch input is not registered properly.

The problem is that 3.5mm jack earbuds work fine. Its when the Audiosystem is connected that the screen behaves like this.

Any advices; Anyone else experiencing this?

Hi,

Please sort my couple of quries..

1. Running CWM does ruins you waranty so is it legitimate to do it?

2. Developer are not comfortable to install the cracked application but isnt rooting a type of crack and is that legitimate aswell.

3. Android is Opnesource and any one can develop it but modifing stock roms is that legitimate.

4. everything above ruins waranty but does that make my phone illegal????

Regards
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] neectron:
I dont know.

1.It is legal.

2.Cracked paid apps=Piracy,rooting is not piracy.

3.Yes,you can mod them as you want.

4.Voiding warranty doesn't make any thing illegal.

I must disagree with you. The sola ICS rollout is a joke. My sola still did not receive the update. I checked the official rollout list, where my SI number was not listed.

We are talking 1.5 months now.

It is highly unlikely that they can jump a major android version in 2 months, when they can't manage to make a fw update in less than a 1.5 months.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] chrizer4:
I recently bought sola... I love this phone.... There s no lag... it's pretty smooth... One disadvantage is the sound.. I mean, the quality is good, but it's not that loud..

About hybrid rom... I installed it.. It's really nice and smooth, but I haven't unlocked my bootloader so I cannot fix some bugs...

Overall, I would suggest you to buy sola.. For the money it costs, it's da best..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] randomchars:
What makes you think that?

With all due respect JB is not a major Android version. Compared to the jump from 2.3 to 4.0 the 4.1 (or 4.2) upgrade is a smaller step that could be done in two months. Remember they're professionals, not hobbyists. (No offence meant) They have access to driver sources etc.

The rollout of updates is a different story. It's more likely related to your carrier.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] espaciosalter20:
Ok... This it's like my first post over this section. Before I was a proud owner of almighty Motorola Defy, which have such a great dev team which I have never seen on any android device different than nexus devices or Samsung devices.

They have achieved jelly bean on Defy (a two years old device with single core and 512 mb ram) smoothly even custom kernel with a superb non unlockable bootloader and they even have forked 4.2 sources from delivering in short time. Even I had learn a couple of things with them (everyone can check my work on my profile).

Recently I had lost my defy for good and I have decided to make an hardware upgrade for me and I had buy this phone not before reading all about it. It seems that development isn't quite well established for this device but it most like there isn't a official proprietary source for drivers for this chipset, even worst, there isn't a official source code for ICS on our device. So, devs have to make so many workarounds and hacks to provide some functionality on custom roms. I'm pretty sure that when Sony make source code available for every one, we will going to see great stuff here like customs kernels and great roms. I'm eagerly waiting for that moment, I really want to build a custom kernel/Rom but with a complete function and much less bugs. For now, I'm going to stay with stock ics with init.d tweaks by me.

I'm optimistic!!!
