some smartphone have build-in battery, so if the battery is damage, i think u need to send back to the manufacture service centre to get a new one replace. yup, its very troublesome to own phones with build-in cell. the power button + something is for when u root your phone.

how to flash cwm using flashtool?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] wisenimbus:
Plz help meeee!!!!

I have a device with the 6.0.B.3.184 running GB. I have unlocked the bootloader and rooted the phone. But the problem now is that I can't seem to flash any custom ICS roms cos of the firmware being in 6.0. Is there any way to flash or upgrade my firmware to 6.1. Cos my device is a ST25i and can't get an OTA update from Sony for it. Any help will be greatly appreciated :)

flash the ICS 6.1.1.B.1.54(global or indian or italian, ur choice), then flash the brain's kernel(

[KERNEL] [CWM Touch] [6.1.1.B.1.54] [Unlocked Bootloader] [30/12]), which has included root. if u flash to 6.1.1.B.1.54 u will lose root, thats why need brain's kernel.

Thank you so much for your reply. One more question, I have an Xperia U. Will your instruction work on it too? :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Hate Android Lag:
sure, use flashtool to flash new software, it support many xperia devices including sola, u, x10, acro & p. if flashtool cant detect your phone, means u havent install the flashtool drivers, its in the directory. when u install the xperia u driver, dont forget to install fastmode & fastboot driver too. just hit the thanks button if i helped & good luck
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MUHAMMAD KHALIL:
The instruction true but

The ftf in the thread is for x sola if you want ftf for xu find in the xu development section...

Did you have unlocked bootloader?

If you have first copy the boot.img to the firmware folder in flashtool directory...then open flashtool and click the thunder icon select fastboot then choose select kernel to flash, navigate to the kernel and click flash you are prompted to fastboot phone simply hold the vol up button while connecting the usb to computer (dun leave hold until it show blue led...) move the window a bit right and you'll see the progress in flashtool after everything ok you have to click the reboot phone into system or something like that:)

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Boss.bhavesh2:
No lol. I see some dots when the screen displays light colors like white, green etc. Not very visible but quite annoying. I have no screen guard on btw. People say they're the touch sensors. Why are they visible when the screen is ON? Also they move with the the angle I see the screen at. I mean if I change how I hold the phone the dots also change their position. Mostly annoying in white color.

SMS PopUp on lockscreen

Hello there.

I'm looking for a way to make SMS PopUp (or some other sms app, like GoSMS Pro, etc.) appear on my lockscreen.

My problem is that I see the pop up, when the message comes. I can reply to it, call the person, without unlocking the phone.

However, if I'm not fast enough to 'catch' it, when the screen is on, after waking up the phone there is no pop up anymore. After unlocking, the notification pops, so it looks like it was hidden under the lockscreen.

I know that I can check 'Show unread messages on lockscreen' in Settings, but it doesn't allow me to reply it nor see the whole message without unlocking. I have nothing to hide. ( :

Thanks for reading.

Problem with Miu Rom on xperia U

Hi, hello everybody, i'm having problem with Miu Rom.

I really like this ROM, but it has happened a few issues bothering me.

When someone calls me, my phone does not play any music, I tried to change the ringtone, but does not work.

I use ICS Stock Kernel from Keiran, before this ROM, I had BrainsRom.

Any way to fix this problem?

xperia p notification tune problem

My xperia p facing problem after updating ICS sms tune does not work only my cell vibrate when i restart my phone sms tune work for only 4 hour after that tune is not work i tried rest and repair but problem not solve
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] neectron:
It is 389mb only.

You need fastboot or flashtool.Google it.

Go to fastboot directory.

Open command window.

In cmd type

fastboot flash boot boot.img

Then press enter.

MIUI rom is based on CM9 by FXP.As CM9 still has that bug,MIUI rom also has it.You have to wait for FXP to fix it in CM9.

Try flashing latest ftf with flashtool.

My battery usage pattern.

Have a look at this..

Facts:

100 % at 11 pm

At 9:30 am the charge came down to 70%

82 % of that charge was taken by Android system.

Mobile was in standby

Wifi, Mobile data, GPS all radios off

Bravia Engine ON

No battery savers except Sony Extended standby

Fellow Sola owners show screenshots of Sola standing by for 4 days

Runs ICS,I remember to have it performing better with GB.

You should notice:

The green activity bar is on for the whole time, but i can guarantee the phone was not used or i have multiple personality like the narrator in Fight Club.

I may be a noob here but i am technically fluent and how could android system suck up that much juice, its like the system is trying to cover up the fault of someone else

I could not post Images cause i am a :rolleyes: Noob..

Please help me i just bought this phone and i love every aspect of it except for that it does not have a warranty and this poor performance of the battery

I did search for 10 min and couldn't find any relevant posts i swear, (I will admit that i am a noob in search)

Thank You in advance...

Something is keeping the phone awake.For better battery,root your phone delete unnecessary apps.Wipe dalvik cache.

I've been observing a lot about xperia u and sola,since the last few weeks I've been watching videos regarding benchmarks of both.

My doubt is xperia Sola is given Mali400 but xperia U is provided with mali400MP ,I've seen in few blogs that mali400MP can perform better compared to mali400 of x Sola,as a gamer can I prefer x Sola over xU interms of performance?

And is GpU in x Sola overclockable?

3 rd is which is better Mali400MP(U) or Mali400(Sola)?

I've also seen nova 3 lagging on xperia U/Sola the same game runs fyn on my wt19i!!

Updating to ICS or not. For my gf that recently got an Xperia U.

The thing is, it works fine for her now. Would it be oh so much better for her to upgrade to ICS.

It at least needs to be just as snappy as Gingerbread and I'm reading quite some negative reviews about the ICS update. Less snappy and everything. Confusing reviews as you all here are very positive about the ICS update.

But you can hear it coming already if ICS makes it slower "Sweety, you made my phone slow!!!"

im lagging like sh** here after update to ICS, now im still finding how to use the cwm, it should be together with the brain kernel but i dont see cwm in my system
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Arthur.C:
Hello everyone!

I own a Sony Xperia P and wanted to install MIUI on my phone, i had it rooted before, installed an CWM Recovery today and flashed MIUI from ZIP. (Followed the instructions on the ROM page it said to "Again Boot Into CWM" ) so i rebooted the phone and then my problem started... The phone does an vibration after booting but no screen or LED is coming up only an vibration. I got nervous and started to search over for solutions, tried to flash stock kernels or use SUS but it seems it doesn't detect phone at flashmode. When i plug in USB i get the green LED and then it comes to an short red one and dissappears. That's all i know for now :/
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] The_0bserver:
ICS can be extremely laggy as compared to GB. Though u can offset alot of that lagg by using some of the fast launchers such as Apex/Lightning /Nova (I found this a bit slower, though i've hear really good reviews for it.) Also U should get a ClockWorkRecovery Mod and Wipe Cache/Dalvic cahce as that seriously improves the speed. Also remove a large no of crapware that Sony has added, and u are close to good to go. If u can, Unlock BootLoader (NOTE:-This voids warranty) and install something like TheBrain's ROm /or even CM9.1 (Its easily usable for daily purposes and NO LAGG-> Had it for 2 days now and haven't lagged even once.) :D Also getting her to start using settings such as transitions to 0.5x and changing process limit from standard limit to 2/3 processes.. (<-Inside developer options i think). This setting has to be applied every times u reboot the phone though. :|

Although after sometime, if she opens too many apps, it might still lagg. ICS Looks amazing though, so if thats ur gf's cup of tea then go for it.

Changing smileys / default action for aux

Greetings!

I have two questions.

The first is.. is there any way to change the default text that shows up when selecting an emoticon icon when texting? For example, if I hit the happy smiley face, in my text window it'll show as ": - )" [without the spaces, of course] and I'd rather the nose wasn't there, or it would be :].

Silly little thing I know, but just thought I'd ask :] Everywhere I look, it's all about how to change the images themselves, but not the actual text!

And, also, I've had this phone for about two weeks, started on gingerbread, updated to ics, and then rooted my phone with bin4ry's method. At some point, when I plugged in headphones to the aux, a notification would come up saying headphones were connected, and it also gave me the option to have a default action when I plug in headphones... But now, that feature is gone, and I'm not sure if it's cuz i updated to ics, or cuz i rooted... So my question is.. is there anyway to get that back? Or, if not, is there a way to make it so I can automatically open up an app (like Pandora) whenever i plug my headphones in?

Thank you in advance!!!

Anyways... can anyone tell me if this LT25i is a "limited" model of Xperia U? I could guess that this "LT25i" is just a typo from the store but there's a few places selling it.
