Thanks for the quick reply.

bootloader info:

EVITA PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-2.14.0000

RADIO-0.24p.32.09.06

OpenDSP-v34.1.0.45.1219

eMMC-boot

Just installed TWRP from your link and got the same error when trying to install. Turns out I'm dumb and was actually using the wrong cyanogenmod ROM (endeavoru instead of evita). BUT I still have the same problem: I need to get the proper rom onto /sdcard/ except when I use adb push I get error: device not found.

I'm assuming this is because I flashed the endeavoru kernel and now I'm hoping my phone isn't bricked for good...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You're lucky you didn't brick, make sure you only flash Evita ROMs. You don't need to use adb to put the ROM onto your phone, connect your phone, select the mount option from the TWRP main menu, then select mount usb storage. Your sd will now show up as removable storage on your PC and you can copy the ROM across.

Don't forget to flash the boot.img with fastboot afterwards. If you need directions for any of this check out my How-To Guide For Beginners thread in my signature.

Ok I got cm-10.2.1-evita.zip copied over and tried installing. Got the same error:

Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found.
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "
E: Error executing updater binary in zip ' /sdcard
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/cm-10.2.1-evita.zip'

Now that I know I have the right ROM would it be appropriate to delete the first line of code in the updater-script and try?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
There is never any reason do delete the first line of code in the script.

Flash a sense rom, S-OFF, RUU and then flash twrp and flash CM

Yes, this may seem like many steps but this is the safest way.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
I didn't realise you were trying to install such an old version of CM. You need a different recovery, get TWRP 2.6 from here:

http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/evita/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.0-evita.img

You should hopefully have no problems with that recovery, if you do, follow exad's steps.

Welp things just went from bad to worse. Accidentally wiped my sdcard in TWRP and now my computer won't recognize the phone as usb storage when I mount it...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Does it show up as anything at all?

Sent from my Evita
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
Typically a factory reset in the bootloader causes that issue. And a format of the sdcard with a later version of twrp fixes it.

Showed up as USB storage this morning when I plugged it in without even mounting it, so I quickly sent the gapps and CM 11 over before my luck changed. Installed and now running perfect. Thanks for help!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] JamesStewy:
Hi,

I, after the long wait, foolishly updated my Xperia T to Android 4.3 (build 9.2.A.0.295). Before doing so I made a nandroid backup of my 4.1.2 install (can't remember what build). Only now do I realize this mistake as the current method for rooting requires you to start from a rooted Android 4.1.2 base. So this leaves me in a situation with a lot of questions that need answers.

Firstly, is there a back up technique that I can use (instead of nandroid) that doesn't require a rooted 4.3 device? And if so to what level does it backup (i.e what will I lose)? Or can I create a nandroid without a root? I would like to be able to use it as a safety net so that I don't lose everything if I screw something up.

If there is such a method I would like to root my device but I have been unable to find any instructions rooting from 4.3 for newbies like me. The current post by DaRk-LOrD just says "Install 4.1.2". How do I do that? Is it possible I can just skip downgrading and somehow go straight to installing CWM on 4.3 (I might be talking garbage, I don't know...)?

Also if I am to root I would like a way to get as close as possible to my current installation of Android 4.3 as possible (apps, app data, settings, etc.). How would I go about doing this? Maybe I install Android 4.1.2 from my nandroid I made before updating?

Also, does anyone know if it is likely we will be seeing a tool such as this one for Xperia T 4.3? Maybe if such a tool is in the works I should hold off for a bit longer.

I know these are a lot of question but I have been unable to find this information which is either relevant or applicable to my situation or what I find is just too complicated (steps are too broad and assume too much prior knowledge). If I have left out any information you need please don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks,

JamesStewy
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
I have a short answer for you: 4.3 is not ready for prime time.

I recommend downgrading to 4.12, root it, install CWM, then flash another ROM of your choice. Look for downgrade to 4.12 threads, such as this:

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] St.Jimmy90:
Is your bootloader locked, or unlocked? If it is unlocked simply flash a custom kernel. Then flash the supersu zip file you can find in this forum. Next step is to flash the kernel from the ftf file, make sure to exclude everything else.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] JamesStewy:
I do have an unlocked bootloader.

Does the steps you have outlined above root 4.3 with out a downgrade? Will this process wipe my phone (if so how can I get it back afterwards)? Also, where can I find "a custom kernel" (which one?), "supersu zip" (like the one from Dark Lords post? What version of supersu?) and "the ftf file" (the Xperia T, Android 4.3, build 295 ftf file?) ??? Sorry but I am too new to this to understand exactly what you are saying from what you gave me but it does sound like what I want :).

Thanks,

JamesStewy
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] St.Jimmy90:
1. You will not have to downgrade

2. It will not wipe your phone

3. Download for example CM or Omni rom, extract the kernel and flash it via flashtool

4. http://download.chainfire.eu/382/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.93.zip

5. Yes, the Xperia T .295 ftf file, if you were using it before
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] JamesStewy:
Is there a way of doing this without CyanogenMod or OmniROM? I would really prefer to just stick with Sony's 4.3 just rooted.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] St.Jimmy90:
You need a custom kernel with a recovery. If you already have a custom recovery installed you can skip this step
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] JamesStewy:
"custom recovery"??? Sorry....

Can this be achieved from a what is basically a stock install of 4.3 with a load of apps on it?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] St.Jimmy90:
You said that you did a nandroid backup. I'm pretty sure you did this in a recovery. There has been a guide of how to root stock 4.3 with unlocked bootloader. Search for it here and you will find it. If you have any further questions feel free to ask.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] JamesStewy:
It was a nandroid of 4.1.2 from an app. Can I make a nandroid of my 4.3 install without a root (that would be awesome)?

I will search for that post.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] St.Jimmy90:
No you can't
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] JamesStewy:
This post is for TX (i would assume it is adaptable by downloading the T versions of the files) but it does say wipe personal data in the instructions which isn't really ideal.

There's Dark Lords post which I found originally which goes through the steps of having 4.1.2 installed and it it also says "do a factory reset" which isn't ideal either.

There is this post which looks quite promising but is about the Xperia V (could that be adapted?)

And that is the first three pages of searching "xperia t 4.3 root unlocked"
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] St.Jimmy90:

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AidenM:
So my tablet has recently contracted a backlight bleed, and I'm RMAing the thing to Asus. They have asked for the serial number be clearly printed somewhere, and if it is not also on the device the warranty is void.

I'm confused - there was never a sticker on the device at all, nor is there anything on the box. The only way to find it out on the device is to go into Settings --> About --> Status, but I'm not sure this is correct. Could anyone post the first few characters of their serial, and also inform me if I must have mistakenly peeled off a sticker or something?

Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aviola7x7:
I believe you are correct in thinking that is the serial number they are asking for. I found this page which verifies it:

https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/3333000?hl=en

The number should have also been on the box somewhere but may have been called the CSSN. This number should nonetheless by the same as the serial number displayed in the About Tablet section.

I purchased the Holux GPSlim 236 and now looking for a software for it. I was looking around and like the iGuidance v3.0. Does anyone know if those two pair will work on the Cingular 8125? Thanks.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] motionmind:
iGuidance 3

I have seen people that were using iG3 on their wizards and said it worked great. Your BT GPS module should work fine as well. I personally think that iG3 is the best option for the Wizard family since it uses the least amount of system resources of most any software option and has the easiest to use setup for maps.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] justintime07:
You are probably going to want to use OMAPClock to overclock the CPU to use IGuidance. It works fairly well without being overclocked but can take 30 seconds to a minute to reroute if you miss a turn. It's definately a lot slower to update your position than when I have it paired with my laptop. I want to test this out again with the CPU overcloced to see what gains I will see, but I seem to have misplaced my Bluetooth GPS receiver...haha
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] pat12:
I also have the Holux GPSlim 236 and I use it with Tomtom, it takes a while to start, but once loaded it works perfectly without overclocking and reroutes in no time at all

I just got my Iguidance 3 and Holux bundle in the mail yesterday.

When i got home, spent 5-10 mins installing the mount, then off i was...so far works great...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jmel:
I looked at both, and I think the only reason that iguidance would take longer to reroute, is that the maps are more detailed? This is a guess, because I looked at my usa state's map, and on tomtom its 30 megs, but on iguidance, its 66 megs.

Just a possibility.

I have heard however, the maps for iguidance are much better in the usa than tomtom's usa maps.

IG3 Screenshots

I don't have my gps unit hooked up but this gives you the basic idea of IG3. It's a great program and runs much faster on a laptop or my Dell Axim. This is noticably slower but works well since I always have this with me. To store Oregon and Washington maps on my storage card takes up about 125Mb of storage on my 2Gb mini sd card. There's still lots of room for programs, email attachments and music.

*Edit - These screenshots are from the 2.1 version not the newer version 3*

Hey Ray_jai - in the same boat - mine's en route!

I'm not only new to the GPS usage, but only just ordered the MDA itself - and it's my first cell&net driven PDA! I have the GPS unit coming also and will be (trying) to set it up quickly....

....and it's my first GPS as well! :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] rxr:
I've been using IG3 now for just about a week. And it being my first GPS i think its great.

I live in the city, and general just use the map function to see where i am, (not for directions cuz i generally know where i am). However i've tested it out in the twisty curvy roads of the suburbs just outside Boston, MA, and i'll tell u it works like a charm. I even tested out how fast it re-calculates when i purposely ignored a turn, it literally took 5 seconds to give me a new route to get me back in the correct direction.

I've also found new faster routes and shortcuts to get to friends' places that i've been going to for years.

Just to answer a few questions...

Things needed:

You need a pocketpc...in the case of this sub-forum a Wizard.

GPS Software, (IGuidance, TomTom, ur choice) I chose IG3

GPS Receiver (i chose the Holux GPSlim)

A miniSD card to store ur map info...depending on ur state or states...these could take a few megs. I have the whole north and central east coast loaded, and it takes up about 300 mbs.

A car :shock: (not necesary, u could keep the receiver in ur pocket and walk around)

And some reading on these forums to make sure u have ur Wizard setup and ready for the software install. (i.e. My stock Tmobile rom had hidden the additional GPS settings on the MDA, had to perform a registry tweak to unhide it).

There is no subscription or anything needed.

only thing u need to shell out is the money to buy the software and the receiver. And perhaps ur electricty bill when u charge these devices up.

For those considering...check out buygpsnow.com or semsons.com for a great price on their bundles.

On a similar note, is there anyway to stop the screen turning off when im using my gps software like memorymap? I dont mind the light going off but id like the screen to stay on. Ive got a feeling that when the screen turns off the gps stops tracking within memory map and then guesses where the route went when turned back on.

i'm pretty sure it continues to work. I tested it the other day driving through the canyon from PCH to my house. I didn't touch it the whole 11 mile stretch. The screen was off for at least 20 minutes and when I exited the canyon, i told me where to go. 8)

Anyone know if verizon has blocked large apps over their network?

The worst part is i don't see a setting *ANYWHERE* to allow large apps over lte.

Anyone know anything about this? For once i hope i am doing something wrong and there is a setting i didn't see somewhere.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Crooke356:
I ran into that.. I think. It was stalling on an update. I stopped it then restarted it. It produced the pop up that you uncheck to allow it to download large apps over the network. I searched but couldn't find the setting outside of reproducing the circumstances by uninstalling the Zoe update and doing it again.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] 123421342:
Verizon can't do this without deep packet inspection, and that would not be worth it. Besides, they let you stream over lte, why would they block large apps? They don't. I bet its a sense feature that is embedded into the framework. I believe it should pop up with a warning asking you to enable downloading large apps over LTE
