HDMI problem

I have some HDMI problems on my Sony Xperia P(LT22i) with Unofficial Cyanogenmod 9 and I had seen some post.I decided to add something into build.prop file but I don't know what should I add.Please help.I'll post what I do not understand below.

persist.hwc.mirroring.transform=X

where X = 0..3 / rotation angle between LCD and HDMI output.

0 - 0 degrees

1 - 90 degrees

2 - 180 degrees

3 - 270 degrees

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pjohn23:
i want to ask a question. if i am flashing a firmware using flashtool then the pc suddenly turned off while flashing. wat would happen? bootloop or Hard brick?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] :
I am not sure if there are any custom ROM for SOLA with floating touch. I have tried flashing different other ROMa for SOLA and never encountered that floating touch integrated. Usually what I do is that I download one from playstore

---------- Post added at 07:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:45 AM ----------

Others get a brick while others get boot loop and others nothing happened. It depends but most of the time it'd the first two I have mentioned
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pjohn23:
how much possibility for it to be hard bricked? in your opinion
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] deepak purohit:
i just made a modification in updat- script,

and the rom got installed,

nw its working lyk a charm

and my cwm version is 6.0.1.2
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ryccardo:
Very little, as long as bootloader partitions are OK (for the U -and I think all NXT phones are equal there- that's much less than a few MB, and they're not even all touched in every flash) you'll always have download+fastboot (if you get a blue triangle on the screen you'll have to reinstall a complete ROM with flashtool before it'll try booting again, no big deal)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pjohn23:
So even if flashing in flashtool is incomplete we can reflash again and fix?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Aniruddha10:
Hey, I'm sorry. I don't understand how you can possibly download one from the playstore?!?!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] :
Try Zdian manager or floating toucher or just type floating then it will give other choices
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Dragoon Aethis:
Heys,

I've got an Xperia Go (ST27i) stuck on 2.3.7 thanks to Orange firmware. Can I just use Flashtool to flash latest unbranded 4.1.2 firmware without unlocking bootloader? And, will this nuke warranty on the phone if I'm not rooting it or flashing anything unofficial?

Thanks in advance.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Chris56:
Bluetooth audio

I wouldn't need "perfect" bluetooth audio. No stereo.

I just need to to my mono tiny headset for phone calls.

Would that work with CM11?

Is anybody working on the bluetooth audio support?

Thanks

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pjohn23:
I Think you can. i did this on my xperia u. 2.3.7>4.0.4. but i dont know about warranty. i flashed generic firmware for my device
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Aniruddha10:
You must have misunderstood me. Xperia has a special unique feature where you can control your phone by hovering your finger of the screen without touching. Look here... http://www.phonearena.com/news/Sony-Xperia-sola-floating-touch-magic-explained_id28043

This feature was available in the stock rom. Just wondering if there is a custom rom where floating touch works...

But thanks for ur help anyways
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ryccardo:
Yes and according to $ony yes (but you can reflash back to original ROM, and most importantly according to EU legislation any form of custom software is OK as long as it didn't cause or worsen the hardware problem)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] M2M_RockS:
Heys,

I got XU with CM10 LE rom,

Is there a chance or a way to make the led bar works as in stock ics?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] HitJin:
Good day ppl, got a weird problem here, i hope u can give me some advice.

I'm using Xperia sola and wanted to install custom [ROM] XNovathor

I installed stock ICS 4.0.4 first -> flashed boot.img in fastboot mode -> in recovery mode wiped all the stuff and installed the .zip file.

ROM works, me happy, everything is so simple. Exept that my 3g was not working, so i decided to flash ROM again, may be i messed up somewhere. (I forgot to set up APN, i'm dumb)

So i entered recovery again, wiped all the stuff, installed .zip file and phone is not booting up after that.

I had to do HARD reset (power button+volume up till 3 vibrations), only after that i can enter flashmode and flash Stock ICS 4.0.4 on my phone.

-So problem is, i can't flash XNovathor rom anymore, after flashing boot.img my phone won't boot in recovery mode, just black screen, i have to do hardreset again.

P.S.: I'm using Flashtool 0.9.15.0 in Windows 7x64.

Thx in advance :)

Making a new ROM but got problem "Installation aborted"

I'm a NOVICE in developing ROMs, this was my first ROM. I don't know any type of coding. After reading guide I started to develop a ROM of my choice for Xperia U.

I took:

Hanomi Z1 for Xperia U to port new features to ROM.

Stock ICS FTF (extracted system.ext4 to get all files) as my Base ROM.

Then I extracted "system.sin" from Stock ICS FTF and mounted "system.ext4" virtually in Windows (followed this tutorial). After this I extracted Hanomi Z1.zip.

After this step I started to add files in extracted Stock firmware from Hanomi Z1. I added the files in folders where there were less files than Z1 ROM. I also removed unwanted APKs and added some of my own APKs (such as Facebook, MX Player, etc.)

Then after this step I used Notepad++ to edit "Build.prop" (find it attached). During editing I added all the lines from Z1 ROM to Stock ROM which WERE NOT present in it and changed some values too.

Then I added META-INF (downloaded from the tut page) and added to the folder (as described in tut page). Finally I packed it in ZIP and compression was set to "Store".

Then I copied it to SD Card. Installed the "Kernel.sin first via Flashtool (got from Stock FTF) and got bootloop. Again switched off & installed Hanomi Z1's ICS recovery via Flashtool. Got recovery working & I went to recovery and done the following:

/Mount/Format System

Format Data

Format Cache

/Wipe Data or Factory Reset

Wipe Cache

Install ZIP from SD card.

Then It showed the following:

--Installing: /sdcard/ROM.zip
Finding update package....
Opening update package....
Installing update....
Installation aborted.

Now I want to know what's the problem? Should I have to do "wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache & dalvik cache" or there's something else making problem??
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
I would strongly advise against using updater-script from other devices than yours, you might end with hardbrick device.

You would have to look at the log for the actual cause it was aborted, but that script is usless for XU.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] cy56:
Umm.... Can't understand!

First of all, Thanks for help! And, Secondly, sorry! I can't understand this much logical language. :( Could you please write this some easier way so that a novice user like me can understand?? :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
Where did you take meta-if from(link)?

In recovery there is an option to show log, maybe there are more detail there
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] cy56:
Meta-inf from here.

I got it from the tut page here. And, I'll try again to get the log. Thanks!

EDIT:

Here's the log for Installation aborted:

You gave me the link to meta-inf not where you get it from.

Doesn't seem like it is for XU. Why did you have to change the one that is already in the ROM?

need help for Xperia Go ST27i

phone details :

ST27i

rooted (superSU)

stock 4.1.2 (.100 firmware)

LB

---------

I am experiencing strange issues with my phone, since i first rooted and started exploiting the power of my phone.

i rooted it (using easy rooting toolkit v17) and used it for about a month without installing any recovery (TiBkp served well), everything worked fine.

One day i installed CWM .... first boot was fine. i booted into CWM couple of times just to check it out(nothing else touched)... it did good till then ...

one day i took a nandroid bkp and flashed cybershot v4.7.2 , rebooted and tested it. first reboot was good and flashing actually worked, but when i did a second reboot, i saw 4 blue dots blinking in lower part of screen just after SONY logo instead of XPERIA logo.

phone refused to boot up into recovery either.:confused:

Now i have noticed that whenever i use CWM (currently on v6.something with new bkp format, LOTUS 2.0 i think ) for flashing anything from apks' to ROMs, first boot works fine even if something does go wrong(ironically), but no matter if everything is done correctly, second boot fails always !!!

those 4 blue dots (more like 2 colons) are pissing me off now.

got my phone soft-bricked twice, had to use even fastboot once (flashmode drivers problems after using Xperiance v8, which is built on ST27a and not ST27i).

now my nandroid backups are ending into bootloop, no matter what i do CWM is creating more problems then it should be solving.:rolleyes:

any help or explanation is highly appreciated. :o
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] cy56:
Reason of using different Meta-Inf

The person who wrote that thread said that "You can use this Meta-Inf file" so I used that. Is the problem caused due to META-INF? I'm trying again with Hanomi Z1 Meta-Inf. :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
It could be the signing of meta-inf since it never showed anything from iupdater-script.

You may want to learn to edify updater-script, partitions/mount points etc. before you make new ROM.

Xperia P fastboot

So, I wanted to get a custom kernel and rom on my new Xperia P.

I rooted it succesfully and then went to unlock the bootloader but I couldn't get into fastboot.

I turn on the phone while holding the volume up button and connect the USB. Red LED turns on. The phone vibrates once, then again once, and then three times in a row. And then it turns off.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Wind07:
You are doing it wrong. To get into fastboot hold volume up and insert usb. What you are doing is hard resetting it lol. Make sure you have proper drivers also before unlocking ;)

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ryccardo:
1- no intrinsic reason to do that

2- use unroot tool in SuperSU settings tab, or reflash stock ROM
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] speedyxvn:
If you unlocked the bootloader without backing up the TA partition your warranty is lost (altough it depends on the ones that verify the phone if you take it to the service or sell it).

Hello everyone.

I'm planning to revert back to a stock rom. Unsure whether GB or ICS.

Which would you suggest?

Also if I install a GB rom, will I have to flash the original GB software with flashtool?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] adi.sreyaj:
I would suggest ICS even though GB is a bit smoother........

Install stock ICS .100

Install greenify app

Install any build.prop mod

Remove the unwanted system apps

I would personally do the above for sure...;)

Sent from Xperia U from XDA premium app....!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Aniruddha10:
Oh k, cool. Thanks. I guess ICS is better than GB even if the latter is smoother. Also it's less ancient :D

That's wat I was planning to do. Thanks again :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ryccardo:
I prefer GB, but indeed all GB kernels out now have memory leak issues... :\
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] FarisBa:
Does anyone fixed mic problem on call :( ?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] adi.sreyaj:
In which ROM?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] FarisBa:
First everything was normal, but in KitKat roms this was bug I understand. But after getting back to Stock roms, GB and ICS this is still problem, I really don't know is this hardware or software problem.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] adi.sreyaj:
if you have flashed stock rom.........there will not be any bug no

it might be hardware problem (maybe)

Xperia P dont enter in Flashmode and USB issues

Hello, I did a flash with an official firmware to my Xperia P, the point is that after making the root with DooMLoRD_Easy-Rooting-Toolkit_v17_perf-event-exploit, now the phone is not connected to my PC via USB, only charge. For those who tell me to try on USB Debugging mode, I already did, and restart several times, I did factory reset, and nothing.

- The PC Companion does not detect the phone.

- The computer does not recognize the phone as a mass storage or media device.

- The Sony Update Service does not detect it. (using the volume - key combination)

- GPS with Google Maps never connected (if it does Waze, but this not happen before).

- I cant install new firmware because Flashtool does not detect it. (using the volume - key combination)

What can i do?

Sorry for my English, i used Google Translator
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
Never heard of such problem, The easy rooting toolkit always works just fine with no side effects.

Can you turn the device off?

Does green led lit when you connect in flash mode (volume down while connecting to USB) or blue led if you connect in fastboot mode?

Try another USB port.

Try another USB cable

Try another PC
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] klefto:
Yes to all of your questions, and i try in other pc and cables, and ports. The phone work normally, with the issues i comment before.

When connect in flashmode the green led lit, but turn red later, same for the fastboot mode (blue instead green of course).

The phone can turn off.

Can i install CWM from the phone? and later install a custom firmware
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
I imagine you can install CWM if you have root access and can copy the CWM zip file via bluetooth.

I would try to charge the phone full then turn it off for a day and see if you can get into flash mode.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] klefto:
Thanks, when can i find the CWM zip for the phone?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
http://xdaforums.com/xperia-u/p-development/cwm-cwm-recovery-6-0-1-2-locked-t2020895

You will need a shell app or SSHD(I use SSHDroid and PuTTY on the PC), extract the zip on your phone and manually run the shell commands that are in the install batch file.

I would recommend not to install any custom ROM and even CWM untill you have flash mode working again

EDIT: actually you need to perform the copy/cat and chmod commands in step3.sh shell script, or edit it and run it, not those in the batch file

Hello everyone.

I have a problem with connecting my sola to the PC.

Pc Companion detects my XS as an Xperia GO.

I don't know what to do. Tried multiple Roms. Unistalled PC Companion and installed latest version..

Nothing seems to work.

Also, is it because of this, I am unable to enter flashmode??

I installed the drivers, and flashtool detects my phone as it is.

But when flashing stock ics ftf file, after attempting to enter flashmode, I get this error..

Have you flashed before?

What Windows version are you running, and did you install flashtool's flash mode driver?

Are you on stock or custom ROM?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Aniruddha10:
I have windows XP. I did install flashtool's flash mode driver, fastboot driver and the driver for my phone.

I tried on Wolf Rom v2, Slim Beans V3, FXP CM10 and got the same result.. :/

Currently I'm on FXP CM9. Now PC Companion doesn't even show my phone.

It says you have to go to Sony Support site and get PC software for your phone..

Edit: Now it detects my phone but still as Xperia GO.. :(

Edit: I rebooted my phone, now it's detected as Xperia U

Damn, what's happening to my phone!! :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
Which ROM was that with, and what changes you made for it to happen?

Try just to connect the phone in flash mode(don't flash anything just connect in flash mode) while flashtool is open and see how long it stay connected, same with fastboot.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Aniruddha10:
CM9 by FXP

When I connect with MTP mode PC companion detects phone as Xperia GO.

I think it was just once, for some odd reason it detected my phone as XU.

I've been trying a few times with no sucess. Always remains as XGO.

I tried to just connect in flashmode/fastboot mode with flashtool open but it keeps saying drivers not installed.

I don't know what I did wrong. I went to the drivers folder in Flashtool. Downloaded drivers for Xperia P,U and Sola, the drivers for flash mode and fastboot mode.

Btw, I'm not running the latest flashtool. Is that a big problem. Currently can't download latest, cause data plan is almost over.. :/
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
I don't think older flashtool should be a probelm, not for flash mode anyway, and you must have used it before to unlock bootloader.

Maybe you can try on another PC.

I'm not sure but I don't think PCC will work with non stock or stock based ROM other than for flashing ROM (for locked bootloader)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Aniruddha10:
I see. Well do you know if there is any other way to flash a stock ROM.

Otherwise it's fine. lol98lol98 is preparing a modded stock rom, so I guess I'll just flash it when its ready.

Thanks anyway :)
