[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Zachinater:
Here is what I did:

I flashed h version and said I was having problems with data

Data will not work with h version of you have a Lte sim

I did not tell them I had root or that I flashed h version

After 2 1/2 hours of talk on phone with technical support they said they could send me a new in

Them I said thats great this is like the third time this has happened

They then offered me s choice

A new ion, a note 2, or an HTC one

They over nighted me the note 2

There you go

And make sure you send your ion in the box that the new device comes in with in 10 days of receiving the new device
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] cristiano_7:
Aha smart cookie i will try this and when ypu send the phone did u unroot it and flash back lte
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Zachinater:
Of course

I flashed back lt28i

Unrooted

Deleted super user

Added the at&t bloat wear back to system apps

Removed any Sony apps that are not in the at&t variant

Changed build.prop to say the phone was lt28at and made it say firmware was 6.1.c.1.111

And then I sent it back

---------- Post added at 07:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:45 AM ----------

And all of the flashing was done through cwm

---------- Post added at 07:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:46 AM ----------

They also took 100 dollars off my bill for being on the phone with them so long
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] cristiano_7:
Thanks i will try my luck, hopefully it turns out well
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Zachinater:
And if one of the at&t reps truss to brush u off

Or has you do as SIM test on another phone to see if it's your SIM

Call at&t again and tell them about what happened with the last rep
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] rkmoran:
Did a "chat" with at&t today, rep had "no information". Wish they would get their stories straight...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] jianlin3062:
Thank you
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Zachinater:
Did you have any success?

Eh, not really.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] edwardng:
att failed!?

What takes them so long to give an unlock bootloader? If they cant roll out JB update, they should at least give a way for user to flash unofficial CM rom
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
Okay here is what I think is going on. The Ion came out June 24th so it is just shy of a year old. I noticed today that Sony is not on AT&T website at all now. So maybe just maybe we will get an unlock as I suspect the JB update could not be flashed to the at model with out issues. We can only hope something good happens but I fear it wont.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] thanitos:
It seems like Sony is trying to step away from the contract market for more open options
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Spectre51:
Its AT&T that has to allow the boot loader unlock.

They aren't stepping away. Just carriers, specifically at&t, aren't picking up their devices.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
T Mobile looks to be set to release the Z soon in the US according to the leak from Sony at E3. While they did not name who T Mo are the only ones to go for FCC approval in recent months. They should say something next week.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Spectre51:
18th is the announcement.

Sent from my Sony Xperia™ Z
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] rkmoran:
So let me see if I've got this straight: T Mo, whoever that is, may or may not get Xperia Z, or at&t is releasing jb or unlocking boot for the ion...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
He was saying the Xperia Z on T Mobile should be announced on the 18th. None of us know anything about the Ion because Sony will not tell us.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Zachinater:
The ion is most likely going to lose support from att and Sony will hopefully release the jb update this month

But if none of that works out

Then just get a note 2

Haha

It worked out for me
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
No way I don't like Samsung stuff at all. I will eventually get a Z on T Mo. I have someone who wants my Ion if I decide to sell it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Zachinater:
Hence the reason why I Dont use touch wiz ROM

I'm on MIUI

I just like the multi view and the spen

And that super amoled...

My gawd
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] rkmoran:
Ok, so once again I spent about 45min "chatting" with at&t about jb update to no avail, but...

I did come up with a thought, why not just ask them to unlock the phone. So I called and spoke to a guy named Aaron, he did some searching and asked if I was going to be traveling abroad (it seemed he asked with a wink, wink, nudge nudge). "Why actually, yes." I said, "Toronto and the possibly London." playing along. He asked if I was going to just purchase a SIM card, " Yes" I said again. He then explained that he would have to submit my request for review and that I should have an answer by the 28th (coincidentally 4 days after the Ions 1st burfday). Either way it never hurts to ask. I will certainly let everyone know.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] thanitos:
That would only be a sim unlock though which they can do for all contract phones
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Zachinater:
What u should do is ask att for a boot loader unluck

Or a boot loader bypass
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] light19940120:
So Ion get the update in juny 28th?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] andy_87:
I have unlocked both my wife's and my ion that way back in beginning of may. You need to get a hold of att international, and they will unlock it in 10 minutes.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] rkmoran:
Here's my point...

When I found out about the Ion, I asked to get it for free, at&t gave it to me for free, waved the activation fee and overnighted it, for free. When my initial Ion decided to not work, I got a new one, not refurb, for free. Then when that one took a dump, I got another NEW, not refurb, for free. Then, my Incipio feather case cracked, funny enough, taking it off to send my phone back to at&t. I, at that point figured I'd try to get the Incipio Silicrylic as an upgrade. I was more then willing to pay, but because I asked, I got it for free. Here's the lesson I've learned: it never hurts to ask...

I may not know all the right questions to ask, and I may not know everything about root, boot and cynogenmod, but so far, I think I'm doing pretty good.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] 0000alex0000:
this phone deserves to be free, or maybe sony or att should pay for us for using it. this damn phone only add annoyance to me on the first day of the purchase

anyways, brilliant advice! gotta try this next time i upgrade my phone :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] princemarcus19:
Ahh I left att for t mobile soon as I say they gave me the sim unlock code and since the xperia z on t mobile it tells me sony doing the same thing. Love my ion good phone
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
I am about to do the same thing. T Mobile seems to be the best thing going at the moment if you have good service in your area.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] rkmoran:
I've been with at&t since well befor they changed from Cingular. Have always had good service, coverage has always been more than adequate for my needs.

The grass is always greener until you're stuck on the other side.

Just sayin'

Now back to the real subject:

Has anyone gotten ANY info as to wether or not the lt28at will get official JB?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bwyan Benton:
I'm thinking we're all waiting for Sony to open there mouths a little more.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
I think we are all 100% sure ATT will not release JB so we just have to wait for the International to go out. Seems quite a few have pointed to the 28th for when we find something out next. I am thinking with the S having so many bugs Sony held back to make sure it was correct but again we just have to wait and see what happens.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Spectre51:
I have said it numerous times. AT&T is not releasing JB for the ion. Some of you don't want to believe me and thats fine but my info has always been reliable in the past. There still has been no change, they do not plan on releasing it. If I get word otherwise I will let you know.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] thanitos:
So off topic a bit here but a question, going from gb to ics is a different kernel correct? Where does this kernel swap take place in the update stage? Are we able to use a USB dongle to trace what our phone does and see it happen?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] rkmoran:
Got my sim unlock from att...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Zachinater:
Here is what I heard

I think it was from android central but I'm not sure

I heard that att is not providing the update from them

Att variants will receive the update, but directly from Sony

It won't be ota

You will have to the update with PC companion

But jellybean will hit att just directly from sony

---------- Post added at 06:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:01 PM ----------

It might have actually been from android authority
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Toledo_JAB:
Not that I even need a AT&T Jelly Bean version, I love the LT28h version.

My LTE speeds have been feeling throttled down during daily use, the H+ network is just as fast. :D

But is there any history of getting a bootloader unlock in the form of a OS upgrade?

I mean I'm not holding my breath for it, but wouldn't it be..... ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ponext:
Hope we can getting a bootloader unlock.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
It is very possible this will give us the option for boot loader unlock much like the Xperia Play on VZW. But from what I have seen the ATT varient of the Play never got the unlock. So don't get your hopes up to high but everyone cross your fingers.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] arunpkrt:
any custom rom for our locked bootloader lt28at? i'm new here.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ponext:
yes, but why u looking for custom since all Ion users got official JB?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Spectre51:
Not all ion users got JB. LT28i JB isn't out and the LT28at isn't getting it. Now if you meant since all ion users "can" install JB that's a different story.

Do you have a source? Iwanna read that i can find any news on lt28at update.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zapper_master:
Doesn't matter if AT&T ever rolls out JB or not

I agree with those who say that it doesn't matter if At&T ever rolls out the official jelly bean update or not. I have the lt28at version of the ion and have flashed, rooted and cwm'd it to have the perfect Sony Ion with JB that is rooted and tweaked it a bit, like make the capacitive keys more sensitive (at least I think) and am loving it !!!! So no matter what att does, I'm ahead of them and as happy as can be....just check the threads and everyone has been super helpful if you get in a kink.

Why do you want to downgrade to 4.00.5?

For my self I was trying to upgrade to 4.00.11 but Jeff’s rom seams to have a bug for the moment.

I you want I have Jeff rom 4.00.5 nbf file but it's done with my own receipt, it has almost all options on it.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ohtwo:
Thanks Yann but I usually took out most of the options so your 4.00.05 may not be ideal for me.

Anyway after using 4.00.11 for almost a month, me and other XDA users from our local forum felt that 4.00.05 was more stable than 4.00.11. In fact some of them have successfully downgraded back to 4.00.05.

We all fail to see any differences at all between 4.00.05 and 4.00.11 so if 4.00.05 is stable for you I suggest that you keep it until another version that has apparent improvement comes along.

They are there! All the freeware selected is there under windows. However, the folders such as Internet, Misc, Phone, System Tool etc are not created under programs, and the links are not located there. If you select the tdLaunch option, all the selected freeware appears as buttons and they all work.

The problem could be in running the mkrom, but I am not techie and don't know about unix.

Trying it out yourself is key because it really makes a huge difference as far as your exact home, work, and any other areas you need service. IMO in a large city thats been refarmed the service is spotty at best and inside buildings is almost a coin toss as far as edge or 3g.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] miniCruzer:
Hi, I'm (obviously) running a Motorola Droid Bionic XT875 on Verizon, with the latest CM-10.1 nightly because there is not a release stable for targa yet. None of the apps on the system can mount the internal SD card, they all either insist that I should uplug my device from the computer, or insert an SD card -- the Bionic uses an internal SD card.

I'm using SafeStrap (per CM instructions) and CM is installed on the Rom-slot-1 (CM warns that it will not boot if it is installed in any other slot, and to no surprise this is true).

I've tried flashing AOKP and LiquidSmooth and they both have the same issue. In CM7, there was an option to tell the OS to use internal storag,e but I can't find that in 10. I've searched and searched and cannot find a solution.
