if the phone vibrates once, it is called as soft reset. just like turning off the phone

if the phone vibrates thrice, it is called as hard reset, just like removing the battery

XAS Jelly Bean - Google Now

For some reason, I'm encountering a "Google Now is not available in your country" error when I use Google Now on my Acro S JB. Anyone else encountering this problem?

Prior to using the official JB ROM, I was using the CM10 Free Xperia port, and at the time I was able to use Google Now without any problems. Any way to resolve this one on the official ROM? :(

Mabuhay fellow XDA Users. I am an Acro S user, bought it last January 1, 2013 for Php17,500.00 (brand new). I was wondering if I used customized ROM, this will remove the Xperia features right? Such as Bravia Engine and Xloud?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] :
It depends, if you use customized stick rom, the stock features are still there. But for the bravia engine, you still need to have a locked bootloader to make it work. So if you want to keep it just root your phone and dont unlock the bootloader. That's for the working bravia engine. But for all other stock features, it's still usable in some customized roms. But if you flash AOSP based roms, all the stock features will be gone. :thumbup:

Re: Xperia S Philippines Thread

Hey guys just to let you know I'm currently working on building a 4.1.2 AOSP rom to work on our xperia S, so far my progress is a booting ROM, wifi, sms, and phone working. Currently trying to have the sdcard accessible at yhe moment. Once I have this running andbgood for a everyday ROM, I would want us to be the first to use it. So I'll just update you guys with my progress and I hope I can get this up and running.

PS

The Xperia S is being used by my wife, so after I can finish it and get it to work with her I'll let you know. ;)

Mabuhay mga chong, boss, chief at pare.

Fellow Xperia S user here, bought mine around September I think and it's been a very amazing experience since I got this phone. This is actually the first *premium* phone I got for myself (flagship, current top of the line [back then], whatever) and never really touched rooting or unlocking the bootloader until the start of 2013.

I've been using ICS happily since I got this phone, but curiosity struck and now im using CM 10 (fxp 152, JB based). Everything is buttery smooth and extremely fast as advertised, still needs polish in a few rough edges though but all in all it's definitely useable.

For some reason Data Connection doesnt work for me though :( , but its fine since 99% of the day im inside a wifi zone anyway.

Rooting my Xperia acro S

Hi guys, it's nice that we have our own thread here in XDA. ^^ Acro S user here and been thinking for a couple of times now if I should have my phone rooted or not. I'm so confused. Can you guys be kind enough to tell me how to root and then what is next after rooting (is it installing of ROM) etc... I know there are lots of threads out there which kind of makes me confused... I appreciate any help from you guys... Thanks. :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] teddy0209:
root your phone to gain more control over your phone (e.g. you can access the system and use applications that requires root or elevated privileges. unlock your bootloader to install custom roms... Just brows the dev section for acro s, you'll find a lot of things there.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] boyheadkick:
you can always browse the development section index
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ermond012:
Thank you BOYHEADKICK/TEDDY0209 for the reply, I really appreciate it. Yeah I really wanted to take control of my phone but I'm just scared that I might end up bricking it. I've checked the link and again thank you for that. I was just so overwhelmed with so many links there. I will try those and will let you know what happens after. Not now though but in the next few days. :) Thanks again! :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] CXP2:
Well what you can also do is, yes, browse the development section, read some articles about modding your phone, and then if you find something you find interesting but not sure about it, get back here and ask some questions about it. That's what I did and thankfully, we pinoys are naturally helpful. =)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ermond012:
I know CXP2 and I'm very thankful that a least there are some who are assisting me as I'm like a grade 1 student. Hahaha. will try to browse and read safest way to root my phone as I wanted to have the system apps of Xperia Honami. Hahaha :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] boyheadkick:
you're not gonna brick your phone if you follow the instructions to the word bro...and besides, its rarer to brick a phone these days..its not like the froyo days when rooting your device required an unlocked bootloader and flashing a prerooted rom, and bricking your device back then was always 70/30..

now you can stay on a locked bootloader and still root your device..and all the harm you can do is just have a bootloop, which in a locked bootloader's case you can always fix with PCC and SEUS
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ermond012:
Thanks for that boyheadkick. So ok, after I root my phone that's the time where I can replace all the apps e.g. media apps on system/apps with the Xperia Honami apps? Is that correct? No need for ROM to be installed? I'm on JB 4.1 by the way.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ermond012:
Rooted

Hi guys, I finally rooted my phone. I used Doomlord's toolkit V16. Again re the media apps of Honami, I'm trying to delete the Album in the system folder but to no avail. How can I do that? What am I gonna do with the permissions?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Pangkoy08:
There is an app to do that. One would be the free app in google play called system tuner. You can clear the data and ununstall apps.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] boyheadkick:

use root explorer or es file manager to access the system/app directory

Xperia ION - hard bricked - Need JTAG

Hi XDA Phils,

Just want to ask if anyone here from Manila area knows someone who has or who can flash xperia ion using JTAG.

My phone has been hard bricked for over a month right now and it seems that most phone repair centers that has JTAG only supports Sony Xperia 2011 devices. If ever preferably within Bacoor, Cavite or these areas Las Piñas, Ayala, Taguig, MOA.

Please. Really want and still hoping to have my phone back.

phone status: Completely dead, have red led only. Does not respond to soft and hard reset. and yes have tried resetting the battery manually and have read/understood/followed the thread on recovering bricked devices. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1849170 also have xperience on flashing xperia phones, not a noob. Phone now doesnt go to flashmode or fastboot mode anymore. Have rooted and unlocked boot loader.

:fingers-crossed:

Thanks.

Mark

Already have Root Explorer Pro and just downloaded System Tuner Pro advised by Pangkoy. I just noticed that after rooting I can't update my apps or even dload apps in Play Store, what could have happened? Also when pushing apps to the system, it's only the apps I know how to push like simply paste it there right? Correct me if I'm wrong and then the other files, where should I push them? The ones or folders that are included on the app...

I'm now trying to use emma on a Windows setup so it's different.

Does flashing custom rom Unlock carrier?

Hi kababayans. really new here in this thread, im more active on symbianize forum. and already asked about this.

does flashing custom rom on my "lt26w Acro S locked to japan carrier" could be remove/unlocked ?

i read that 99% i cant unlock this phone's carrier , but i would just want to read answers from you guys if i really cant do anything about this.

sorry for my question, i just got hope when i read that in some htc phone, you can unlock carrier by flashing custom rom and feels i have hope for this phone too xD

thanks for anyone who will clear this question in my mind.

Godbless you all. Mabuhay kayo. :good:

If the folder contains .obb file, put it in this directory sdcard/Android/Obb...

I'm not sure about this 'cause mine is factory unlocked, but you can try... I remember seeing something like the rom is ignoring the locked carrier while flashing a custom rom... You must first unlock your bootloader though...

Try to install flashtool for xperia by bin4ry and androxyde, fastboot drivers are included on the package...

in some cases, drivers are already included on windows, you just have to choose manually... Or you can try to install the driver from device manager, plug the phone in fastboot, browse for the driver, if the phone boots to system, turn it off and plug the phone in fastboot mode again, then continue... Hope that helps!!!
