Not too sure if this is already been posted but I know it's a function/feature we've all been dying to use: the ability to stream Google Music to a 3rd party app besides the the stock one.

I've been using it for about a day now on the PlayerPro music player & it works pretty darn great.

Anyhow, enough talk & on to the show: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2169761

Nice find!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EL TEJANO:
About a week into it or so. It does have its quirks where the system file that hosts the script becomes unmounted but a simple sync & remount solves the problem.

I've also noticed that if you add music to your Google Play library the GMusicFS app will not auto sync your music, you have to do it manually in order to get the music to be recognized in whatever 3rd party player you're using.

I've also used various music players such as Winamp & JetAudio & both work great as well.

An added bonus is no more tiny widget via Google Play Music, you get to use the larger widget that comes with those alternate players plus the ability to view lyrics & tweak the sound that these players have built in; something the Google Play Music app lacks.

Hello,

I've tried to root my S0-03D several times already, and I only managed to do so once...

Anyways, even when I managed to Root it, the Phone changed from Acro HD to Acro S.

Due to that I lost signal...

I always keep flashing my phone back to 'Stock 2.3.7 Docomo', and by doing so I can get an official 4.0.4 update.

Is there a way to Root the Acro HD while in 4.0.4 ?

Without downgrade or changing it to the non-japanese version?

I've spent a week already on this and I'm about to give up...

Right now my phone is, yet again, on Stock 2.3.7 Docomo, everything works. full Signal.

I can root it with the instructions given on the site but again, I get an X above the signal bar.

Lets say I do it again, is there a way to make the 4.0.4 Rooted Acro S => back as an AcroHD ? still 4.0.4 while keeping the root ?

Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately there's no way to push the restoreback apk in to system/app without root access. I don't have and ACRO HD, rather i had Xperia S.

Wait for some one who has ACRO S or ACRO HD to reply.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] major9686:
I've noticed what you said on another thread and...

You think that if I'll unlock the bootloader I'll be able to root ?

I've got 0.106 after all ...

Is there anyone who tried Option #3 ? (for new devices)

Can I just downgrade the kernel to 0.55 or 0.50/45 so I can root it and then re-upgrade to 0.106 ? (not sure if its possible, and if so, how?!)

Again, thanks :good:

EDIT:

Also, I've checked my Rooting status and it says: Bootloader unlock allowed: NO.

It said YES before I started all the flashing... I guess that updating it to 4.0.4 via PC Companion, locks the bootloader. X_X

Does it means that I can't root my phone?

Unless I flash it?

EDIT2:

I've created my own *.ftf so I'll try to root again...

EDIT3:

The only thing that was missing was my own baked FTF file..

Since I managed to do it, the rest of the rooting process went smoothly .. my phone is super fast, very fine tuned and rooted :)

Thanks to everyone who showed interest in this thread and tried to help me..

Have a great weekend!

Glad to hear everything went well.

I was following your posts in the [Guide] Sony Xperia acro HD KDDI IS12S and docomo SO-03D root thread.

I haven't been around much to help with questions new users might have so if you could share your knowledge or help with some questions that would be great!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] major9686:
No prob. :)

Though in the upcoming weeks we should get a new official JB update ..

I guess the procedure of rooting it will be the same...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] boyheadkick:
you should start a japanese QnA thread or just a simple japanese general thread and share what worked for you ;) specially because your acro hd doesnt have its own dedicated forum, since it was made specially for the japanese market [though i think one could be made as a subforum here in s-acro s-ion forum]

us filipinos have a philippine thread in the general forum and everybody shares what worked for their device so that others could learn too :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] major9686:
I'll just post the steps here :

1. if you have 2.3.7 just connect to the computer to get the official 4.0.4 via Sony PC Companion.

2. once you have 4.0.4 just back it up by following the steps in this link:

http://mytechencounters.wordpress.com/2012/06/12/how-to-create-an-ftf-file-of-your-xperia-ics-firmware/

That's how to create your own Official 4.0.4 with the japanese kernel/firmware.

3. Once you created your own 4.0.4 FTF file continue to this link:

Japanese Ver.http://blog.huhka.com/2012/11/xperia-acro-hd-docomo-so-03d.html

English Translation http://lemmymorgan.com/root-sony-xperia-acro-hd-soi12-sony-xperia-acro-hd-so-03d-sony-xperia-acro-s-in-two-quick-steps/

There's a list of files in both sites, download everything just in case...

You'll end up with 3 *.FTF files ...

1. The one you baked - Acro HD 4.0.4 - to keep the official japanese kernel

2. The generic - Acro HD 2.3.7 - for root step A

3. the easy to root kernel - Acro S 4.0.4 - for root step B

According to this I don't think you lose any of your data but be sure to back it up just in case ...

EDIT:

I don't wanna just copy-paste what these guys wrote and take credit for it so... just visit the links :)

ICS 4.0.4 Build number 6.1.F.0.128

Hi guys,

VERY new to the Android world so appreciate your help. Just got a new Xperia SO-03D from NTT in Japan and am looking to root my phone after reading about it.Tried several "one-click" rooting solutions found on youtube and neither worked. From what I can tell, many solutions were done on ICS 4.0.4 with older build numbers but the one I have (6.1.F.0.128) seems to be too new to have any solutions that works? I then stumbled upon this thread and before I venture onto what looks like a more complicated way to root this phone, does anyone know if this should work with the build number? In case anyone is wondering, I am in Japan and plan to stay with Docomo. However, I don't read Japanese (yet) so am leary to try solutions posted by Japanese developer community. Appreciate any help you can provide!

By the way, I did backup my phone via PCCompanion so if I try and fail (and brick the phone), I should be able to bring it back right? Company phone so can't afford to brick it for good ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] major9686:
Just do whats written here, if you cant understand Japanese just use {Google Translate}
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] wngzro07:
Thank you very much for your reply.

A friend suggested another one-click solution and this one actually works. Since I'm a noobie, the forum won't let me post the url. If anyone else needs it, try googling xperia hagurekamome rootkitv3.

I was able to root the phone and installed Titanium to verify root. Just drop the link into google translate and it's pretty simple like other one click solutions. Hopefully this is helpful to someone later too.

You can try to backup your phone first and then roll-back to 2.3.7 with the PC application.

after that do the 4.0.4 update and create your own *.ftf file:

after that you simply flash it while mixing it up with the 4.1.2 *.ftf, keeping what you need from your official update, so it will work with your provider. (get cellular bars, etc.)

Just go through the links I provided or search for my old messages on the forum, I'm sure you'll find a fix.

btw, do you have Acro HD or Acro S ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mahmoud Halem:
thxXx all things done well (Y) .. i have acro s ... but i don't know what's the differents ???
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] major9686:
This thread is for people with ACRO HD

ACRO HD => japanese version

ACRO S => other countries

Its easier to flash ACRO S, and it still get updates from time to time.. unlike the japanese ver.

So you should have it quite easy, rooting the flashing your phone... If I'm not mistaken Acro S got an official JB update...

try some other threads ... and you can root/flash/update easily with 1 click softwares ...

just search the forum :)

Have a nice day

[Micromax A110] md.abidahmed:
Thanks in advance.

Few suggestions:

Let's retain the default camera application.

S3 Dialer is perfect, or for a change you can try the xperia dialer.

Let's have only the touchwiz and xperia launcher.

Let the battery icon remain as default coz its difficult to see the battery remaining due to percentage notification.

I always wanted to tell you to include the s3 messaging app included in your ROM than using the default app.

Let's not miss out on the tweaks you did for battery. That was brilliant work in earlier versions.

Thanks again.

Hi Suhas,Thanks for this great ROM to A110.this is really smooth.

Last week I was using SUVI 4.1 and Deep sleep battery is also installed on my phone,battery given backup of 28 hrs and it was still on 20%,In the morning when I checked battery was drained and phone was not powering up even I connected with charger for 4 hours.I think that happened because of Deep sleep App conflicting with ROM(I am not sure)..Can you please let us know for what reasons It happened.

Anyways,I flashed my phone by SP Flash tool on Stock ROM V2 and rooted it again and installed GREAT SUVI ROM 5.1

Cheers!!!
[Micromax A110] bsuhas:
Keep cwm backup on the sd card for such situations. Its not problem with suvi. To solve, you can flash again via sp tools (cynus t2 jb or mmx jb) and restore cem backup.

Also there is a thread dedicated for this problem. find in general section.

and one more thing sir - when charging, after 91% the phone shows green led light indicating battery full but the battery isn't completely charged.

I had the same problem twice. Had to search for a battery charger in the market , and then charge the battery out of the phone to get the phone to boot up again. It happened twice.

DONT LET THE PHONE GO TO 0% CHARGE. Switch it off at around 5% to avoid it , i guess

1. Remove your battery once and fit it back.

2. Plug you charger cable from adapter to phone. Guys Ian not sure about usb cable users.

3. Press the power button for more than 5 to 10 seconds. You will get a battery icon but the charge will not show as it charging.

5. Don't leave the power button immediately.

6. Hold it continuously for 3 to 4 mins. The battery icon will flicker till that point.

7. After this the boot logo will come. Once it comes, your mobile will start charging.

It seemed to me that you guys have uploaded the file into the xda and tried to execute the file within the xda. I believe this is wrong right?

Can someone please confirm that to run any of the self installer exe file (even those now in the famous rom kitchen), one has to run the exe from the pc with the xda connected and not within the xda.

Hey Vic, you're right - The exe from Jeff's site needs to be run from the pc. When I did it the first time just opening the exe I got the error listed above. When I unzipped the .exe file (I just opened it from Winzip) and extracted the contents to a dir on my pc using it's folder names then double clicked the start.bat file it found everything it needed and ran just fine. I think before I did this it couldn't find the files in the \English folder. - Jim
