Change Splash Screen

does any one know how to change the splash screen. It's better if there is a flashable zip so that i can add my own images :fingers-crossed:

im using xperia sola running cm11
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] :
I had an interest on this before but then I am having serious brick problem on my Lenovo K1. Based on my research you need to extract the boot.img and from there there are still things that you need to do. Though there is a tool in converting your .jpg into splash screen. But still before you use the tool extracting the boot.img is necessary.

Hi everyone.

I'm new to all this rooting and roms and all that stuff so all this information that i find around here is a bit overwhelming.

My phone just got back from warranty because of a touchscreen problem and i decided that i would try to root the phone when i got it back.

I want to use it at it's best, remove all the garbage it brings, improve its performance and all that.

The phone is an xperia U and questions are,

1) How do i root it? After searching the web about it, i found out that there's a bootloader program that unlocks it, but i dont think i can use it with my phone because its says "Bootloader unlock allowed: no" so i guess that method is out of the question, what other ways can i do it?

2) Since it came from warranty it brings the 2.3.7 version of android, or GB. Compilation number is 6.0.B.3.184. Do i need to upgrade it to ICS to root?

3) About roms, i noticed that the stock ICS (if i update it through pc companion) is very laggy, will a costum ICS rom give the same feeling? Should i use a GB one? If i install an ICS rom and later want to check a GB rom, can i do it without problems?

4) last question, what roms do you people recommend me to look at? I want my phone to be fluid, play a few games and use some apps that i like.

Thanks for the help.

1) http://xdaforums.com/xperia-u/issues/getting-startedrooting-bootloader-t2100529

Root = superuser - allow more modifications for the rom (android system), while unlock bootloader - allow modifications outside of android system (example: kernel). So the two things are different.

2) see 1

3)Well you have a problem... as you bootloader is unlockable, you wont have so many options for roms (any jb or kitkat is impossible atm). There are still some very good ics roms. >This one< seems pretty stable and fast from what i read, and theres a patch for it to work on locked bls...

If you dont need the ics features, i recommend using a gingerbread rom... xperia u just fly with gb :laugh: And yea, you can check out one rom and then change it with no problems.

heres a index for all xperia u roms. You can check in each rom's thread op if its for locked bootloader.

4) Same as 3

By the way, we may be getting some jb and kitkat for locked bootloader as we recently got a source leak of the phone chipset... but some developer are afraid they are illegal, some are not. With these sources they are probably able to compile kernels for new android versions compatible with locked bootloaders.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Exaile:
Thanks for the reply, will check and read carefully everything once i get home. I was already thinking on getting a gingerbread rom since they are faster on this Phone, i will check some and which i like the most.

Ill report back when i get it done.

Don't think the software of the phone is going to make the waranty go away, it's the fact that it has a broken screen...

Not 100% sure, because it depends on the company that repairs the sony phones from your location, but i'm going to bet that they're not going to repair it in the warranty and are going to give you a nice budget for you to pay if you want it repaired...

Works that way here in Portugal (and we have 2 years warranty here)...

Wifi driver reconfiguration for ad-hoc

Hi guys.

I hope that this is the right thread for this question. Maybe it would be better to create standalone thread for this question.

The theme of my bachelor thesis is to implement mobile ad-hoc network protocol (AODV) in Android. The library was already made by students of Technical university in Kodan (Denmark). To use this library for ad-hoc network creation, the wifi driver needs to be patched/reconfigured.

My problem is that I don't know, what file in my Sony Xperia P (LT22i) represents this wifi driver. Do you guys have any idea what's the name of this wifi driver file?

I've read some posts about patching file called wpa_supplicant to view ad-hoc networks. But I think it's not suitable for true mobile ad-hoc networks(Maybe only for p2p ad-hoc network between laptop using e.g. Connectify and some smartphone?).

My Xperia is rooted and I'm using Honami moonwalker Custom ROM.

Thank you really much for your answers.

Hei

Has anyone deeper knowledge to the inner life of the phone. Have the same issue at the moment. Traveled from Europe to Australia and in here would need st27a instead of st27i.

In theory it a I should have the support for the frequencies of A

WAN / Network 2G	GSM: 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 Mhz

WAN / Network 3G

ST27i (global): UMTS HSPA 900 (Band VIII), 2100 (Band I)

ST27a (Americas): UMTS HSPA 850 (Band V), 1900 (Band II), 2100 (Band I)

In 2G mode the frequencies 850 and 1900 are present. Or is there separate HW for 2G and 3G. Or is it in SW. e.g. could be fixed with baseband or something similar?

Have been googeling for a while and have not yet found a answer that would say it is or is not like this.

Need help everyone, I have 2 issues with my phone, can't find solutions anywhere, sony are no help either.

EDIT: Sony Xperia P, forgot to add.

1. My WiFi doesn't work for longer than 5 minutes and won't turn off, I have to turn phone off and then back on for it to work, but it only works for about 3-5 minutes then I have to repeat process, every time draining about 15% of my battery. How to fix this?

2. Also, I have been wanting to root my phone for a while now, but I can't unlock the bootloader, my provider won't let me (I emailed Sony, they say it is fine I root it etc, showed it to 3, kicked off saying it has f**k all to do with their service and will take them to court lol). Is it possible to root without unlocking the bootloader, or just put a custom rom on straight away without unlocking?

Thanks.

Answer 1:

Yes, There Is A Problem In Stock ICS Rom For Sola, P& U.

You First Need To Root Your Phone.

Here's What You Need To Do When Your Phone Is Rooted:

1. Install ES Explorer from Play Market (free)

2. Turn off WiFi

3. Open the explorer, go to /data/misc/wifi and delete wpa_supplicant_bgscan.db

4. Turn on WiFi (this will generate a new wpa_supplicant_bgscan.db file)

5. Go back to /data/misc/wifi, select the new wpa_supplicant_bgscan.db, and change all of its permissions to "read only"

6. Enjoy your bug-free wireless!

Apparently This File Accumulates Data Which Eventually Causes WiFi To Freeze, So Making It Unwriteable fixes the problem.

[First You Make A Backup & Do At Your Own Risk. :p]

Answer 2:

You Can Easily Root Your Phone With Out Unlocking The Bootloader Even If It's In Warranty. There Are Many ROMs Available For Locked Bootloader, Too.

Factory Rest

Hi. My device is LT22i, Xperia P. I know it was already asked before, but it seems that anwers may vary, I'm now confused. I have a stock 6.2.A.1.100 CE firmware, rooted and with CWM recovery. I've already installed some mods, such as White Settings, Honami Keyboard, Honami SystemUI but my phone started to act weirdly (30% battery drain overnight with everything turned off). I think the best solution is to perform a Factory Reset. Here's my question: what is the best way to make a phone like just after rooting and installing CWM, with everything wiped? I know if I flash the same firmware again, I will lose root and CWM. But I also have read that if I do a Wipe Data/Factory Reset in CWM I may have softbrick since it will also erase my root and CWM. Neither Factory reset via Settings seems not be a safe option.

I don't care about my apps, I use so few that I can just redownload it. I think I may now try this ROM: LT22i_XPERIA Z1_6.2.A.1.100.

Thanks

if you use custom rom, then you won't have anything to do. They are usually pre-rooted.

But if you flash original ftf then just fastboot a kernel that is prerooted and has cwm in it. e.g. I use phantom kernel.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DannyDD:
1. Had a similar problem with my Xperia U, it's a system process that get stuck in error eating up CPU and blocking wi-fi. Did u try to factory reset it? Most of the times it solves it. Think it's a common problem with some Xperia phones.

2. Don't think u'll need to unlock the bootloader to root, u just need the correct way to do it...

For custom roms u need CWM recovery installed, and that needs root....

Xperia P bootloop problem

Hi guys.

I'm pretty new at this, so you might need to explain it with a more detail to me, thanks in advance for your patience.

First of all, I'm retarded. I had my xperia with jelly bean and I wasn't happy with it. It was laggy, the battery life was crappy and I loved the idea that I could try out all of these custom roms that people made.

Now, I followed the guide on xperiahtcrootingrom "Install Android 4.4 KitKat on Sony Xperia P ST22i (Manual Update)"

I rooted, unlocked and installed clockworkmod. Everything was going smoothly, I flashed with boot img, and wiped all data and caches.

Then, my next issue was when I wanted to install cyanogenmod from zip I got an error assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "LT22i" and I found a fix where you delete the first line of code in location /META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script, but to put that edited version of the zip on my phone, I had to do a recovery from my backup, which worked.

Now, my idiocy is in the error I made (I presume that this is the culprit), as I didn't wipe all data and cache, flashed with boot img and all that, I just went and updated from zip. Now, that worked, it installed, but when I rebooted, it was stuck in cyanogenmod booting logo spinning, and that is where I am now. I can access fastboot but can't go into cwm recovery mode.

Thank you in advance, guys, hope you can help me somehow.

EDIT: I managed to get into recovery mode, I kept pressing volume down and up buttons (that worked before) but now I read on the forum that you need to press the power button after vibrating. Now I just hope it will charge considering it has 3% battery. Thanks anyway!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DannyDD:

Stamina Mode on Xperia P

Hi guys after one year using my phone, i just unlocked my Xperia P bootloader , and I rooted my first phone(Xperia P). I flashed the Honami Moonwalker V8 custom ROM and using Nemesis Kernel 6.3v.

Before i unlock BL and flash new rom and kernel, i used to turn on stamina mode and WiFi on 24/7, i can see that it helped my phone to disable WiFi automatically when in sleep(and i still can recieve notifications like Whatsapp...etc.) , and the battery drain overnight is less than 5%.

But now after flashing Honami moonwalker v8 and Nemesis kernel 6.3v my battery drained 20% overnight.

I tried to disable WiFi overnight once and the battery does not drain that much and it is very good better than stock :D

I think the stamina mode is not working properly because its not disabling the WiFi automatically.

Any...advice??
