{PRO} [Q&A] All Xperia pro/MK16i/a iyokan Related Questions Here

Hello everyone,
if you can understand me it's very difficult digging out pro questions on the arc questions forum. Also some questions are pro specific so cannot be answered by people who are not pro users(me thinks). So please ask all pro related questions here.
Request to mods -- Please make it a sticky
A Requst to everyone.. Please read the questions below before posting.. If you have questions any other than this then please ask otherwise dont crowd up the thread unnecessarily..
Q] How do I unlock my bootloader..?
A] Check this out.. This is the official way to unlock the bootloader
http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions
Q] How do I root my device..?
A] Well there are many ways to get root access on your device.. You can try installing some custom ROMs or you can root the official firmware too. If you want to root the official firmware there are two ways..
1) For locked bootloaders
Make sure you are on firmware .58 or lower.. Firmware .62 cant be rooted with DoomLords root exploit or OneSuperClick.. Then use the DooMLord's root exploit to root your device..
You can get the .42/.58 firmware here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1642480
You can get the DooMLord's root exploit here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1320350
2) For unlocked bootloaders
Best way I would suggest to use a custom ROM but if you want to stick to the stock firmware there is a stock based kernel with root access and recovery. Flash it via flashtool.
You can get the kernel here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1642480
Q] Which kernel or ROM should I use..?
A] This all depends upon you and what type of user you are. You can try flashing different kernels and ROMs and use them for a while(1-2 days) and then decide which ROM suites your use. You can get the list of all the ROMs and kernels on ameer1234567890's thread. If you are too lazy to search it here it is - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1642480
Q] I'm on a SIM locked device and can't unlock my bootloader the official way but I would like to try all these ROMs available what should I do..?
A] Contact Alejandrissimo or Jinx they do it for a small fee.
Q] I see a custom ROM there for the Neo/V and as the pro and Neo/V have almost the same hardware can I flash it on my Pro..?
A] NO.. NEVER DO IT.. Maybe the pro and the Neo/V seem to be same but the hardware and the drivers on both the divices are different.. Dont try to cross flash any of the ROMS or the kernels you might end up losing your device..
More questions to be added soon..
Regards.

Request to the mods. Please add MK16a also on the topic

It might also be a good idea if the OP for this thread could also maintain an index of all other Q&As on Xperia Pro (like is done on Xperia Pro development master thread).

1. how to enter fastboot

To enter fastboot you need to get your bootloader unlocked you can get it done by visiting the official bootloader unlock site..
http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions
After unlocking the bootloader you can get CWM recovery by flashing the kernel posted here depending upon the firmware you use..

No you can't. You need to use the recommended kernel by the op every time. And the stock ROM in case of Sony is not vanilla.

Hi,
where can I find the most newest Baseband and how do I update it?
Is any Baseband "sufficient" for any Rom or are there specifics I need to know about?

Use the baseband recommended by the author of the OP.. i would personally recommend baseband 64.. it gives a better battery life than others.. you can find baseband 64 in the fxp op..

Difference between FXP and CM
I just don't find an answer to that, perhaps i'm not clever enough, but i've seen the question a couple of times but i never found an answer.
[EDIT]
now i found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604170
in the last post there is the conclusion
CM9 is firmware, is a source
FXP is a team which assembles firmware for Xperia phones from cm9 sources making it workable on our smartphones.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
this could only be true for CM9 but not for CM7, because when i look at http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=iyokan there are nightly builds for CM7 and here http://uploaded.to/folder/i4fex9 you can see that they are almost equal by size..
and the changelog for FXP says most of the time only "latest cm 7.2 fixes"..and since i've seen many posts where people said they used the CM7 nightly for their Pro and it was the same as FXP i don't get whats the difference between these two.
Since i did not find any CM9 builds it could be that the conclusion is true for CM9...but since there is no repository for the device at freexperias github i don't think they make changes to the source by themself, just compile it so its CM9 compiled by "Team FXP" if i get it right
[/EDIT]

After recovering the phone (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1666078)
i now want to flash cm9 by fxp
do i have to flash baseband 62 (http://uploaded.to/folder/yrqfhn)?
then root
then flash kernel
then update.zip via CWM
Is this correct ?
currently on older baseband (NON ROOT)
Please guide x_x

Yes bro... flash the latest baseband.. but u dont need to root your phone.. but an unlocked bootloader is required.. and flash the kernel then install zip via CWM

[HELP THREAD][XPERIA S, ACRO S & ION]Ask any question. NOOB friendly

There are a lot of current users of the Xperia S/Acro S/ Sola and a lot of new users coming through here aswell. There are also a lot of questions being asked time and time again, aswell as a lot of new users being flamed and/or trolled for asking a simple question. This is filling up our Q&A and Development forums with junk which doesn't need to be there.
Instead, just point them to this thread to get all the help they require, which in turn, lessens the clutter of the forums aswell.
If you're reading this and you're a new user to XDA, I suggest you read the XDA New User Guide by mf2112, as it contains all the information you'll need to have a happy and productive time across the whole of XDA.

Post #2 will include the rules which I'm putting in place for this thread, which I expect you all to abide to.
It may also include an FAQ of questions which get asked fairly often, yet don't have a specific thread to find the answer. (I'm still deciding on this idea yet though). It will also include some important links for you all to check out.
In post #3 you'll find the links to different ROMs and kernels for the Xperia S. Links provided by Felimenta97.
ASK ANY RELATED QUESTION HERE,bootloader, drivers, how to root etc...... You will either get an answer here or will be given the best thread for you to go to so you can get your answer.
Even if you find your answer from one of the links provided, please come back here and look through the other threads, as you may learn something else you didn't know.

This is a joint project to help us all out. Special thanks to Felimenta97 for being a part of this and providing all the links in post #3.
Special thanks to neectron for also being a part of this thread and helping out those who have questions about the Xperia Sola.
Special thanks to Spectre51 for also being a part of the help available in this thread.
Thanks to all of our developers and people who created those amazing threads to help us out and thanks to everyone who reads this thread
If this post has helped you, please click the "Thanks" button rather than actually saying thanks all the time. It reduces clutter
If there's any links that I missed which you think should be included, please let me know and tell me why you think it should be posted.
I will also be requesting thread maintenance as and when it is needed to remove any SPAM comments etc.

Please make sure you have read the whole of the first post before continuing to read this.
Whilst posting in this thread, please remember that the Forum Rules (post 2) apply as always.
*No calling anyone a noob
*No making fun of someone's genuine question
*No swearing - even using *'s or other symbols is still swearing, so don't do it
*No posting useless comments/off topic comments
*No posts saying "Thanks" (I won't be so harsh if you actually click the "Thanks" button aswell")
If you break these rules, I will contact our FSMs to get the comments removed.
You may think that these rules are a little bit strict, but this thread is aimed at being as useful as possible to all of us, so I'm sure we'd all prefer it if this thread was kept as tidy as possible.

Hi,
The xperia sspeed kernel v6 isn't guaranteed to work on stock ROMs, even though it does work with some.
If you're able to boot into recovery, flash the Advanced Stock ICS Kernel linked in this thread and it should work fine for you.

To use Sony programs again (not including MEDIA GO) you would have to relock your bootloader. But you can download the firmware you want and use Flashtool to flash it on your phone.
I will add later a link to a thread with the stock firmware.

Hi all
I just flashed Advanced Stock Kernel on my Xperia S today, after I had a problem 'cause I flashed DooMKernel over ICS. I was wondering if the advanced stock kernel was pre rooted, 'cause it came with super user installed, but isn't giving root access or super user permission to any apps (including busybox) infact, after I installed busybox, random pop ups kept saying that root access was being denied to various apps. (I had Titanium Backup*Root and busybox installed) I'm really new to all of this, and would appreciate any help at all
Oh and also, Juice Defender detected a root and Apex launcher now allows me to add widgets from the app drawer, which required root access, if I'm not wrong. I'm wondering if I went wrong somewhere..
Thanks again
Oh god, it's all on and off, I don't know what's happening.

I'd suggest installing Root Checker to make sure whether you are intact rooted or not.
If it says you're not rooted, then simply root your device and everything will be fine.
If it says you are rooted, there may possibly be something wrong with permissions.

Yeah, I tried Root Checker and it says that it's not intact. Also, the Apex launcher thing isn't working anymore (Adding widgets from the drawer, which needs root access)
But in Super User it says root permission granted to RootChecker and busybox, but like I said, the logs keep saying denied. So I'm not sure
I'd be really grateful if you can point me in the direction of a way to root my phone. I thought advanced stock kernel is rooted. Should I Flash KA S Speed kernel and flash Stock kernel again? I'm sorry if I sound stupid, this is my first Android...

[Q] Need some information! Anybody here?

Hey guys!
I created this thread since I have few questions. I am a newbie, and I want to start porting apps (like the latest apps found in 2012 - 2013 Xperia models) to older 2011 Xperia's, like the LT18i. I have 0 to less knowledge about android developing so I would like to ask whether there are any good guides over the internet? I tried Googling but they all look messed up for me. Would like if someone could link me to some guides perhaps?
Another thing, I downloaded the LT22i (Xperia P) firmware and extracted the system files. I was wondering whether I could flash that whole part of the folder via CWM Recovery and then would everything work on my arc S? (Dumb question, I know - was just curious).

Of coursw not, xperia p has different hardware specs software so different drivers etc, its like asking why a windows-only program doesn't work on a mac.

You do not have meta-inf and updater script right?
You will have to make your own updater script...depending upon in which partition your system, boot, etc are. Google these two and you will find proper guide threads.
Also, you can use (after editing) another rom's updater script. That rom should belong to your device.

unable to install rombuzz on canvas 4
I have checked your post regarding RomBUZZ rom and download all version.But at the time of installing by CWM method,but it was showing "INSTALLATION ABORTED".
kindly guide me.
AS per your query version is 1.0 and "installation aborted " after the selection of "apply update from sdcard" and then the selection of the ROM zip file.Is there are any process for ROM flash directly from PC.

Are you using Master Awesome's CWM recovery? The background colour of recovery should be Grey. The link is present in post 1.

guys i flashed a self created rom got boot loop so tried to backup rombuzz rom but started imei issue so flashed stock imei issue still there so followed karthiks method and solved issue but whenever i flash new rom i get imei issue how to solve permanently

karthik's method is?

Notification and music/radio
Hello,
I found a bug: when i listen music or fm radio and a notification arrive : the music stops playing, the screen is black and the power button is disabled.
LED notification flashes but nothing more.
The only solution is to remove the battery and cut the next time connexion data
Otherwise it is one of the most successful ROM I've tested, thank you !
