Hi, I was looking for the Kovsky Kitchen and the ftp server sees to be down. I was thinking of cooking myself as I just want to remove the things I don't want from the stock ROM. I searched for another link to the kitchen, but I am not sure the ones that I found are the latest or even for XPERIA ROMs. It would be great if someone can give me a download link. Also, if possible, please point me to a guide to cooking.

Thanks.

SMS as network message

Hi,

I installed the 1.16 radio and everything works fine, but a SMS I get is now displayed as networkmessage (in german it's "Netwerknachricht"). The sender isn't displayed and the message isn't stored anywhere.

I wanted to go back to 1.11.25.76 (because 1.14 don't works well) but the links aren't accesible anymore.

with friendly regards

Radio download links?

Hi all.

I upgraded my radio to 1.16.... and after that whenever I try to navigate with garmin mobile my gps keeps on disconnecting.

I wanna go back to 1.06.25.29 as it was working in that version.

Can someone help with a link?

Or links for all the radios?

no experience, but check the link provided by freak4all and try them as radio quality cannot be extrapolated from another region/country

also consider rilphone.dll in your test runs

Is there any life left in this corner? I rediscovered my X1i some days ago and would like to know if there is any ROM to use it an a some kind of current software level?

I'd mostly like to use some Android/CyanogenMod than an old WM with propably no support for current apps.

Any ideas or shall I use it as paper weight?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] laostia:
That is my nick in all spanish forums and I decided to keep it also in the English speaking ones :cool:

Thank you for your encouragement !!!

Now let me answer to your questions:

1- I would be very pleased to upload the extracted OS, however, first I have to learn how and where to upload it here in this forum, any indications will be appreciated !!! (if not, I'll read the FAQs till I find how)

2- YES, I tried the MicroSD method with the "image" before and I got an ERROR message; it disappeared so fast (gone from the screen) that I couln't read the entire message!! Just saw the word ERROR.

3- I agree with you; even if you use a NoteBook and you have some guarantee because you are using a PC with "Battery" (in case of a failure), however you are always exposed to a Windows Hanging !!!!

Here you have the instructions I found at this forum about how to use NBH Util and this is what I did:

- Download the file you want to use and rename it from *****.image to ****.image.nbh

- Run NBHUtil

- Go to "Extract NBH" tab

- Choose *****.image.nbh

- Now you should see something like this:

Model ID: KOVS*****

Target CID: 11111111

Version: 1.02.932.3

Language: DEU Remember what it says here. Could be something else for you, depending on the language of the file you want to use!

Chunk Size: 64

- Click the "Extract" button next to OS:

- Save it as OS.nb

- Go to "Build NBH" tab

- Select the X1 as model

- Set language to the value you should remember

- Click on "..." next to OS:

- Select the previously extracted OS.nb file

- Click "Build NBH"

- Save it as "Kovsimg.nbh"

wonder if there are any differences between x1a and x1i ROMs.

well, i know this is stupid, all ROMs can be used on any of these.

but i mean, since i have an x1a,

are there any current ROMs optimised to fit USA and muti-language environment?

i know, most of them are imported form x1i.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] gtrab:
Differences between X1a and X1i ROMs have been discussed before, they are just barely, slightly different, and cookers usually remove or add stuff at will, so you'd better check the cooker's own ROM description to find out what's included and what's not

Dear Friend,

it is as simple as I've posted :D

Just follow the steps I've posted. For instance, if I say:

"Download the desired image file *.image and rename it to *.image.nbh"

JUST DO THAT. It is just a matter of "extensions"; doing that, NBHutils recognise that file as we would like to and so will let you to operate with it following the next steps.

Consider that this is my first "Adventure" with windows mobile devices, (till now just using Nokia Communicator Series) and if I have been able to this, be sure that you can do it better than I did :D

Curiously enough, It contains the instructions I wrote :D (nice to see they are helpful and being shared)

But from which device is it ??

have you tested it on a security unlocked or locked Xperia ??
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] :
Yes it does contain the instructions you provided, figured it would save people from having to search and eleviate the unnecessary posts about how to....;)

Was extracted from

SKTELCOM KOREA R2BA026 (1.04.911.26) Release Date:13.3.2009

My device is security locked, but obviously it will flash to both.

GPS locks in quick...signal is much more stable imo...doesn't flip flop as much as prior versions...will see what the battery life is like tonight as I have a night detail I am on till 4 a.m.

WC:cool:
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] :
Flashing new radios will not hard-reset your Xperia

Nothing will be changed (except the radio)

But it is recommended to backup your info first, just in case ;)

YOU MUST HARD-SPL YOUR XPERIA FIRST !!

1.- CREATE A NEW FOLDER

2.- COPY "X1_CustomRUU.EXE" and one Radio ("*.nbh" file) of your choice (only one!!) to the new folder

3.- Synch your Xperia

4.- Run "X1_CustomRUU.EXE"

5.- Follow on-screen instructions

If you have already done the steps above....reflash...I have had signed radios fail the first time...redo the flash and it will go through.

Why not ??

The linked download RAR package contains:

The RADIO 1.11.25.76 ROM file "ruu_signed.nbh"

The Radio Update Utility (RUU) app "X1_CustomRUU.exe"

A small text file "XPERIA RADIO INSTRUCTIONS.txt"

If you don't want to use the RUU app, just copy the RADIO ROM file to your microSD card and rename it to "KOVSimg.nbh", then manually enter the bootloader screen and flash from your phone

What's incorrect about that ??

I see things like ROM and so on floating around but i don't even know what a ROM is.

It's a bit long, but worth, full of explanations and more than 120 links
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] hotnikkelz:
I did TRY to read the first post, and it's still not basic enough.

Like, why 'flash' roms in the first place, what is the point of me doing that? What is SPL? All that kinda stuff is all a blur. Original stock roms?! eh?!

I have no idea why/what an xperia can do, neither the point of all this. Which is why i wanted an even more basic guide, to understand this. I really need this in dummy language seriously
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] fards:
I would get your x1 first and play with it, then play with it somemore. then when you're fed up with what it comes with "as stock" you may start to feel the urge to replace all of that with something that could be quicker, or more stylish or less full of crap or just plain different, thus the custom roms are born..

As to the HardSpl etc. have a read of the Wiki on the top bar.

There's a glossary in it http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Glossary that will help you out a bit.

I did not found dicussing in the xperia section regarding this (yet). The problem is, my gf's xperia is quite sluggish and unstable compared to my TP. I tried several radio version (1.10, 1.11.25.71, 1.11.25.76 and even the raphael's 1.12.25.19) but no luck yet.

can anyone tell me whats the difference between the radio update utility and the rom update utility, or in other words: why should i use the radio update utility in order to update my radio rom?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Fulgore69:
The different is that each tool is made for they purpose so to flash rom use room flash tool, and for flash radio use radio flash tool, and so for hard-spl use hard-spl flash tool....

But i recommend you to use MicroSD method for both, radio and rom update (flash)...Because it is more safe.... Remember to have at least 50% battery

Just rename the Rom file to KOVSIMG.nbh and put it on the root of the MicroSD and then restart you phone in Bootloader mode and follow on screen instructions....

Wich you Luck....:p

Important:By the way hard-spl can not use MicroSd method!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
