Re: [HELP THREAD][Xperia P,U,Sola & Go]Ask any question.For everyone and anyone!

Hello frnds...

I tried to flash my Xperia go today using flashtool,

But it s not going in flashmode, with error saying device driver not installed, and in drivers folder, there is not any driver of Xperia go

There are drivers of Xperia u,sola

But not of go...

Now how to get those drivers...??
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Anthrax:
in drivers folder theres and driver.exe..... run this file and in that check the drivers for your GO...... and fastboot and flahmode drivers also........

Will this wipe my phone?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Anthrax:
goto

C:\Flashtool\drivers

then click on the file Flashtool-drivers and click next next and you will see a checkbox list in that check you model no. and also at the botom will be those two drivers which are needed for flashing........

It will wipe your phone.

Yes but use the Backup and Restore app.

It is the safest way.

Re: [HELP THREAD][Xperia P,U,Sola & Go]Ask any question.For everyone and anyone!

Well, you formatted system, so you don't have a Rom to boot into.

You can flash stock back, using flashtool and ftf file in flashmode.

On ICS I could connect my XU through Bluetooth to my iphone and use its hotspot. Now when I pair them it says: paired but not connected.

Anyone have an idea as to why the option to set storage in the camera app suddenly disappears?

It seems the option has been going on and off for a few days now.

PS. Can a kind soul upload an original 6.1.1.B.1.10 framework-res for the xGo? I wasn't able to back mine up. (doh) :eek:

Re: [HELP THREAD][Xperia P,U,Sola & Go]Ask any question.For everyone and anyone!

Firstly you have to press volume up button to go to fastboot mode not volume down button and plz check that you have installed the right drivers i.e. Android ADB interface.

Go to device manager in your pc then connect the phone holding the volume up button if the device is shown in the list and does not disappears in seconds then your phone is connected in fastboot mode and if it goes then it's not installed!!

Do the following steps and tell me what happens if not done I will tell you what to do!!

All the best try it!!!

need expert's opinion

I have a new xperia u , and I have 3 questions

1- I want to root my xperia u only to control applications' permissions (not for flashing rom or other stuff), will I be in danger of bricking my phone if I only use the rooting for that purpose only ?

2- does it worth to root my phone if I only use this feature to control app's permissions?

3- is there any other way to control app's permissions without rooting ?

thnx guys
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] percy_g2:
to access your system or system apps as you said you need root access ,which can be done only if you have rooted your android ,so rooting is needed

rooting your device won't brick it if you follow the steps properly and feel free to ask about any thing before doing which you don't know ,but search before asking in that thread as some other person might have same issue and got solved it in past .
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] The_0bserver:
There is an alpha (developer only build) for JB on XU. Baasically the phone will start, boot etc into CM10. But there will be alot of bugs and a large number of stuff that may not be working - example could be wifi/ bluetooth/ Data connections etc, basically it would be unusable (as of now) for daily purposes.

Follow My instructions on page 123 of this thread. (Near the bottom of the page I believe,)

1) It is always possible, but pretty highly improbable. Even if u do end up bricking the phone while trying this, it most probably will a soft brick. (i.e you can easily revert back to normal by flashing a stock ROM). For easiest method, follow Bin4ry's method. he has a video tutorial/ text based, and is very easy to follow.

Rooting for whatever purpose is still Rooting,carries all the risks (not gonna be much unless you start with messing with some files, which if you do and screw up, its still not too bad as you can just go ahead and reflash a stock /custom or use something like adb to push proper files)

2) Based on you, Honestly speaking rooting isn't particularly hard, and in case you want to get it fixed by a shop or something , you can easily unroot if needed -example in case of warranty issues.

3) none that I'm aware of, that gives a proper tool to do so. Stuff such as CM File Explorer/ ES File explorer /Root explorers will do the job that you want. Though all need root for it i guess.

Hi. I want to use this custom rom in my xperia sola: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2162832

The instructions say that i must flash Munjenis v5 CWM boot.img using flashtool and that it can be used with locked bootloader.

My phone is rooted and has locked bootloader. I have been reading and I understand that i cant flash boot.img images without having my phone bootloader unlocked.

So how can I flash CWM?

GPS issue on Xperia P

Hey guys!

I own Xperia P with 4.0.4 Android (6.1.1.B.1.54) and the thing is, that it can't find any gps satellites... It just searches, and searches and so on. Maybe there is any fix for it? Also, I tried full system re install several times. Didn't helped.

I need it for offline navigation.

Hey guys im pretty new to this, i have been running my xperia U (rooted) on the old gingerbread for sometime now, finally bit the bullet and unrooted it and upgraded to ICS 4.0.4 via SCC. I quite like ICS its smoother and the phone runs faster (although battery life now suffers) the only issue i am having is I cant play videos on my phone; this includes camera video in the gallery and embedded videos on the browser. I have factory reset about 100 times still hasnt worked and have tried installing adobe air, flash etc still nothing. When i click on a video in the gallery for example i try touching the play button but nothing happens, the thumbnail and video still image is fine just there is no response from touching the play button.

Am i missing something? or am i being a complete tool, iv looked all over the forums for help on this but everyone else seems to be getting some kind of error message, mines just doesnt respond to the touch....

Help please! appreciates

thanks

Once, but it was gone for a long time before this happened. Now I don't know if I can even repair via SEUS if the phone doesn't get detected by any computer. I tried a couple.

Edit: Removed all init.d scripts, but nope. That wasn't it. I'm afraid my phone will break if I roll back my build.prop to its original. I should really make a note whenever I flash thing. :banghead:

Edit2: I tried, it wasn't build.prop either. It's probably something I flashed. I want to try an original framework-res.apk from B.1.10 XGo if anyone has it. Or .54 if that's sure to work. Or if anyone has an idea of what's going on?

How exactly did you determine that the scripts you used didn't work and that the ones by this app did ? :p and if you can provide the exact change made by the app, I can make you a script for it :)

Iwould suggest you use flash tool because it's faster and simpler, plus a little experience on using flash tool will be handy when you need to unbrick your phone ;)

I'd suggest you first flash an Ics FTF, root and install cwm, then. Follow the instructions in the rom thread to install ;) let me know If you still have doubts :p

Hi,

My friend bought a Xperia P from pawnshop. It didn't work well, it shut itself off short time after boot. So my friend gave it to me. I struggled 2 days to get it working. Starting with dissassembleing it and charging battery manually etc..

Anyways, for now I have successfully flashed "eXperience v2.1.3 for Xperia P" ICS rom but sometimes it freezes randomly (while calling, uninstalling some apk, starting to watch video in browser....). When it freezes after a while it goes into something what is called RamdumpV3 and starts processing some information.

I wasn't able to unlock bootloader, but if i type that *#*#737 stuff in caller it says that bootloader unlock is possible.

Yesterday one my other friend pulled of the bottom cover of the Xperia P. There was text "Not Type approved Prototype build: SP2 Prototype not for sale" and some another numbers that may be useful: MoP 1256-3513.1A/18 TYPE: AAD-3880135-BV 00440214-436067-8 SI 1256-7822.3/102 CB5 11W44 S/N:CB511VD8JU P/N 1251-4892 ReV 2 Date 11W41

My question would be that is there any way possible to unlock bootloader on that Xperia P prototype SP2 to get it stable for everyday use?

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Anthrax:
I guess it was a developers model or just a prototype as in initial stage model..... but as it says bootloader unlock: yes then it can be easily unlocked by using official method...... after unlocking try flashing the stock first and then you can see if there are any difference.......

Gallery wont play videos in cyanogenmod 9

Now this is the only bug I am facing with CM9 {free xperia project} Xperia GO. the gallery wont play any videos I've put in my phone through my PC and the phone force closes and restarts every time i do it. I've tried the stock CM9 gallery and several other galleries from play store, but none can solve the problem.

But here's something which is strange: when i navigate to the videos using a file manager and try playing them from there, they work just fine.

Ive tried several different players too, like: player pro, MX player, the stock video player offcourse.

Its the same with other custom roms too, I've tried MIUI (by munjeni) and firedroid, etc. I've reinstalled the rom several times but there no difference.

>>BUT<< this problem is not there with the stock ICS and GB roms, these default xperia go roms can play these videos through the gallery just fine. its strange.

Please help. I am nothing more than a noob. i hate going to the location where the video is, using a file manager EVERY TIME i want to play it!!

Also, its the same with the videos i just recorded with the phone's camera itself! please help!
