Hello
I have Xperia Pro and I accidently used the boot.img of ICS while my phone had 2.3.4 ginger (used with Flashtool).
so it made it stuck at booting.
I can still use fastboot and flashboot modes but other than that I cant do anything with it.
what can I do to solve it?
(maybe some1 has the boot.img for Xperia Pro? can't find it in google)
The original problem was my phone home button stopped working properly (not returning to home screens and not showing the recent apps etc)
I know it's not for Xperia Pro forum but i cant find it on the site.
Thanks.

Hello,
I tried searching for this subject, but didn't quite know what to look for.
So basically I flashed my Arc S (LT18i) with the newest (?) Cyanmod FXP104 for Arc. Most things work just fine, but there are some problems.
Google market says that apps that i could previously use are now incompatible with my "LT15i". I already paid for them, so not being able to use them anymore would be rather sad.
While I'm at it...please excuse another noobish question: After flashing, do I have to change something in the CPU settings? Will it be on Arc's 1GHz after flashing?

I see this is your first post, welcome to XDA.
The market uses your build prop and location to make available apps fpr your device. Looks like your flashing the FXP104 has altered your build prop to state LT15i so the apps previously available to your LT18i have been altered.
I can't answer the processing speed inquiry, sorry.
I have a similar problem after flashing a custmo rom, after that my phone was dead, I taked it from the valley of death phones thru flashtool, but now Pc companion seen it as LT15, and I have only 380 mb of rom and not 1 gb
Thank you for your reply.
After reading a bunch of related stuff, I learned that there has to be a way to change that. Do you know how? Can it be done without having to flash again?
Here's my build.prop for Arc S and FXP104. https://www.box.net/shared/fi8vaa87x3uyikij6le6

You don't have to replace a whole build.prop.
Just open it and change all LT15 to LT18.
And for CPU, you could use performance settings or third party apps like NoFrills, SetCPU, etc.

I solved the problem by flashing my LT18 with wotanserver, in advanced mode I selected LT18i and flashed with version .42 and now my LT18 is again an LT18
I tried that and after reconnecting my Google-Account my mobile is now recognised correctly. Unfortunately that doesn't change the initial problem. Might have something to do with the android version.
I'll just try another ROM. Thank you for your assistance

Hi,
-I want to root my device, so what's the safest way to root it ?
(explain the method here or give me links!)
-and what Rom do u prefer to use in my phone after rooting it ?
(custom rom or stock rom, but all features most work perfectly and the phone should work smooth)
I am running ICS 4.0.3 and My phone is Middle East version & it's important that the rom that I will put in my device fully support (Arabic language) like the original one does!
See attachment to know all the info of my phone
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601038
Follow this thread and download the zip file, read the on screen instructions and just run the .bat file and you'll have root..
And for the rom, try Arconium ICS or Mooded ICS.. They both support Arabic languages!

Thanks alot gire.prasad for your helpful reply
my phone now rooted successfully!
I am thinking in staying with the orginal stock software (the original SE ICS 4.0.3)
So now I just rooted the device, and I will try to free up the internal memory
note: I was facing some application hanging when I try to use them before rooting the device like :
-Phone
_Contacts
-Xperia Gallery
-Messaging
So will freeing up internal memory space solve this hanging problem ?
Thanks!
Glad you got root!
It wont.. The apps freezing is due to Stock ICS and freeing up internal memory simply doesn't help it.. Tweaking should help a bit or try different rom.. If you prefer stock rom, then try supercharging the rom using V6 SuperCharger script and using that script try to bulletproof those apps you mentioned! It'll help a lot and make the rom even more smoother and faster..
Need some help for doing it?

found this with a qhick google:
The blobs folder contains portions of your CWM backups.
When you make a new backup, CWM checks the blobs folder to see what has changed between backups, since it's likely that a lot has remained the same.
This can actually save a lot of space, and make backups happen faster.

I asume you also have an Xperia S, you can unlock its bootloader by going to: unlockbootloader.sonymobile.c om./instructions (without the space between c and om )
Because I have a Xperia S myself, the only MOD I have experience with is CyanogenMod. It is a very good one in my eye's here is a link on how to download and install it on your Xperia: /androidlegend.c om/xperia-s-update-to-android-4-1-jelly-bean-with-cyanogenmod-10 (without the space between c and om )
P.S. You MUST unlock your Xperia's bootloader before doing anything else with it..... If you don't understand how to do all this stuff, PLEASE do not start with this.

Hi,
I flashed the JB AOKP Custom ROM on my Xperia Acro S. I love it but I noticed a problem. It didn't come with the google play store app so I got an APK somewhere else. Now Whenever I try to download any application from the market, it says my device is not compatible.
Any ideas guys? Any help will be appreciated..
Thanks.
Try to download gapps.zip ( for JB rom) from xda ( search a little bit), flash zip with cwm and you'll have PlayStore that should work.
Did you change dpi? If your answer is YES then, change it back to original.
I dont't know why, but sometimes that's the answer.
