I have checked APN setting, there is no LTE option, otherwords the phone doesn't see LTE. :crying:

talked to FIDO, everything is ok from their side, I should have LTE option on the APN's page. FIDO uses the one LTE network with Rogers.May be I should return back to 195 ROM with a stock kernel from Rogers? waiting for your advice. thx
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Spectre51:
Flash the ftf for your original firmware back to the phone but exclude everything except baseband. Un check all the wipe options. As long as you are doing this with a firmware that had LTE support (LT30a firmware) it will work.

I'm on v1,5 ROM which is based on 223, the original ROM was 195, wouldn't it be a conflict between that ROM and kernel from different ROM?

thx for your support.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TiMiN8R:
No, Spectre51 says to flash only baseband which make sense to me. But, I haven't had any issues with .195 kernel on .223 Rom.

thanks!

My Xperia T is rooted, it's working perfectly.

Only I have some questions about, when I flash your 223 rom, my phone's mac address change, is that correct or at least normal?. Finally, can I recover my original mac address?

Again Thank you, great job.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TiMiN8R:
Don't know if that's right,. That's the same baseband I have.

I've heard this before on other ROMs. Haven't checked mine so I don't know if it changed. Shouldn't be a problem though.

Ok first sorry for writing here (i don't think it's worth creating a new thread)

Is framework-res from this rom the newest and original one? I mean without any modifications (except deodex)

I'll port 4way reboot mod to the T, so i''m looking for the newest and unmodified framework files for the t..

1. Posting benchmarks makes you a lady

2. No
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] POWER1FM:
Thanks anyway!!!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] schaggo:
With only a little bit offense intended, synthetical benchmarks are in fact really useless. Posting them makes your weener go smaller. And if you're a woman, your BF's or hubbies or generally your intimate partner's weener goes smaller.

A little more seriousness: if you go by what the benchmarks say, Android running on the stone-aged HTC HD2 should be UNUSABLE. It's so bad, the score is so low. But it's not. So the benchmark lies. The Xperia T is "only" dualcore, it's such a bad device. But it's not. The dualcore CPU in the Xperia T is of such a high degree of efficiency, that it's head-on with some of the more powerful, higher clocked quadcore CPU or easily ahead of some older, similarily high clocked dualcore CPU. The benchmarks tell you the device is useless, using it though, the device is much more pleasant to use.

Another example: the benchmark of a device won't be higher or lower by using a different launcher. The felt experience can be much different though. What counts is how you experience the device, not how high a synthetically calculated number is. And to actually generate some input here, regarding the sound, if it's the same as with the original stock firmware, no, nothing to do about it if there isn't anything you can do on stock. This is a repack of a stock firmware, not something "developed". So nothing to improve, if the original it bases off is crap already.

I use ONLY holo launcher plus in every rom and i can tell you that user experience mirrored exactly at antutu higher/lower scores.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TiMiN8R:
Files are up. Had to upload in two parts because it was to big for Dev-Host (512MB limit). One important thing for locked bootloaders: CWM for locked bootloaders does not work with the .489 kernel! But you can get to recovery by flashing back .223 kernel with Flashtool, then after flashing in CWM flash .489 kernel again.

Sure you can.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Dave****:
I am on .223 rooted with cwm for locked bootloaders.

Is this correct....

I follow step 4 and then step 5 "Flash ROM."

I then flash the .223 kernel with flashtool.

Then boot into CWM and flash "CWM & Reboot fix".

Then I follow steps 7 and 8.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] schaggo:
AW: [STOCK][Jelly Bean 9.1.A.0.489][T]Rooted & Deodexed[03/02/13]

Isnt the kernel turnable into a flashable zip? Or a restorable nandroid image of boot? I hate it to use my pc to get things done... Just askin.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TiMiN8R:
You can do steps 5 & 6 in one go, no need to reboot or flash kernel in between

For locked bootloaders, it's not possible to flash kernel from CWM. I don't like this very much either but it's a lot better than repeating the whole process of flashing a whole stock .303 firmware, etc. I think it's justl be a matter of time before there's a better solution.

It should be possible for unlocked bootloaders but if you flash the stock kernel you still won't have CWM and if you flash DooMLorD's kernel you have no wifi. I've never done it, I'll poke around how to do this.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] jewkhok:

Hello boys, one question: If I´m on .489 original firmware with stock kernel, what´s the instructions for install? I have Unlocked BL.

Thanks for the answer.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TiMiN8R:
1. Flash DooMLoRD's advanced stock kernel with fastboot.

2. Flash this ROM in recovery (shouldn't be necessary to do factory reset if you're already on .489)

3. Flash back stock .489 kernel (DooMLoRD's kernel has no Wi-Fi but you lose recovery)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Dave****:
Thanks for clearing that up for me.

Installed and running fine.

Thanks a lot. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Monipeev:
I flashing this rom fine, but I read this:

''CWM for locked bootloaders does not work with the .489 kernel! But you can get to recovery by flashing back .223 kernel with Flashtool, then after flashing in CWM flash .489 kernel again.'' from OP

But I'm a little confused as to when this is done step recovery working? Because then flash the kernel 223, the phone can't start, so it can't be installed and CWM recovery. Certainly as flash kernel .489 and phone work, but do not know the sequence for installing CWM.

Anybody that install recovery successful? :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TiMiN8R:
If you followed the steps, after 5. flash rom comes 6. flash cwm & reboot fix. So recovery is installed, you just can't get to it with .489 kernel.but you can by flashing .223 kernel.

You mean the nfc firmware update? Went fine on mine. Did happen once before on a different Rom. Just try to reflash.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] erdemdengel:
I tried a million times these steps

7. Reboot. Phone will go into bootloop, turn off by pressing and holding vol + and power till it vibrates 3 times

After 3 vibrate, phone is off then??

Flashtool does not recognize my device. I flash many stock roms via flashtool before.

What is I missing?

Edit: I found what is missing in the instructions. after 3 vibrates, keep pressing volume + and put usb cable into xperia. LED will be blue and then you will be in fastboot mode.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Monipeev:
This NFC Service FC i see, when i restored my recovery data from CWM Recovery.

Now won't enter in recovery.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TiMiN8R:
It says in the instructions for unlocked bootloader to flash the kernel in fastboot mode but I'll make it more explicit.

What data did you restore? Restoring data from ICS firmware on JB is not a good idea. Better use TitaniumBackup for apps+data (not system settings) or Sony Backup & Restore.

Did you flash .223 kernel again to go back to recovery? Maybe your data restore messed up CWM.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Monipeev:
Yes, i restored only data, not system settings in cwm recovery from ICS.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TiMiN8R:
As I said, not a good idea. Plenty of things have changed between ICS and JB so there's no telling what mixing data will do. Try clearing data of NFC service in settings > apps > all

No, there is no kernel for TX which supports this firmware. If you use a T kernel it's likely bad things will happen or at least not everything will work as it should. But you can always try if you're feeling lucky :p
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] beenoliu:
I have tried to flash on Xperia TX, but it will bootloop in SONY logo forever.:fingers-crossed:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TiMiN8R:

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] beenoliu:
Can the Xperia T .489 kernel flash on TX?

Because I flash the TX .212 kernel after I flash the zip file.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TiMiN8R:

Yep, tried to uninstall system app via ES, SuperSU is there.

Tried with wiping and without.

It is strange: The apps which require root still show the permission request and when started say "APP NAME has been given superuser permissions"

DooMLoRD said that he also has no idea why this is happening.

Maybe the problem will fix itself when he releases the new kernel he's working on...

EDIT: What must the permissions be set to for the SU file in /system/xbin/ ?
