Help for Xperia S - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

I had unlocked my bootloader and set up my Xperia s with CM 9.1. As there were a lot of irregularities I wanted to revert Xperia s back to stock so I used the repair function from PC companion. Though everything seems to be back to normal but the facebook Timescape, download music info and I also think that the BE is not working (according to XDAians) but do find difference in videos and photos with BE enabled.
I would like my Xperia s back to stock with everything working like out of the box, no rooting no deodexing! Please help!
This is the current state of my mobile if it helps in helping me :-

I would suggest reflashing with flashtool, download a stock firmware first ofcourse.
Its really easy and straightforward.

flash stock rom and relocked your bootloader or relocked bootloader update via sus.
for timescape - theres already a fix for that on themes and apps section
for download music info- theres a fix for that on xperia s development section
for BE - i think its still working, cause mines working

I don't understand your first question can you be more precise?
And that timescape fix worked
And the download music info thing is for the rooted phones mine is unrooted and i want to keep it that way!

I don't understand your first question can you be more precise? - you said that you want to have rom out of the box so i said flash via flashtool or upgrade via sus (sony update service)
And that timescape fix worked - good
And the download music info thing is for the rooted phones mine is unrooted and i want to keep it that way! - but you cant have working download music info unless youre rooted, so make your choice.and i think you can uninstall superuser or supersu after that.

Ohk now i got everything working without root!

my phone dead after a mod ..... help me please

hello everybody
now I'll die following up my phone if not back again
first I apologize for prolixity but I wanna explain everything I did coz I am a newbie
yesterday I could update my phone "Xperia arc S" to officially ICS
after installing cwm I felt that my phone reboot many times before accessing
the home then I root the phone
then I've applied reboot mod [MOD] Reboot Options in Power Menu [4.0.2.A.0.42]
firstly I don't notice that may not work for ICS
and also I've applied camera mod ICS-Nordic562-CamExtreme+5MP
NOW !!!!!!
when I reboot the phone it reaches to the first of the bootanimation and reboot again (looping)
I thought that maybe the framework became broken and I have to back ICS's
so I've applied ICS-Nordic562-FrameworkMod-PartA(odex) but not success
then I've applied Xperia ICS framework
also not success
in trying to fix this big problem I've applied [ROM] Official Sony ICS 4.1.A.0.562 NCB Generic + ROOT [Update: 15.04.2012]
but in the end of the flashing it sent this error
RROR - ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CLASS="MEMORY_CLASS";ERR_STATIC="HASH_VER";ERR_DYNAMIC="Final data verification failed";
and when booting up after Sony logo it shows me this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
then shutdown
also when I tried to re-update it using PCC it didn't detected the phone "your phone not supported or something like this"
please help me I'm so broken
Flash again the ftf file ([ROM] Official Sony ICS 4.1.A.0.562 NCB Generic + ROOT [Update: 15.04.2012]) to other usb slot.. just follow the instruction on how to flash it.. and Don't forget to check the "no final verification check" and your phone will be good again..
thank you so much it worked nice
but I wanna know what I did that causing the problem ??
also after flashing my phone to ICS I rooted but the bluetooth won't work after root
I used to root DooMLoRD_v1_Xperia-2011-ICS-ROOT-emu-busybox-su
during the operation it detect the phone then reboot and tell me to disconnect and reconnect after I disable and re-enable USB Debugging
(looping)
so I rooted with SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse but the bluetooth failed
what I have to do ??
and I apologize for annoyance
Np bro. You can try to install cwm(old tool will do) then perform factory reset in (cwm). If the error persist, try to install again the ftf and use the rooting tool posted by DL and make sure its for ics..

I have a question... Whats the proposite of "no final verification check"
Flash tools will make sure Rom has installed and that all is ok.
With ics this can cause an issue something to do with the library's and scripts.
By unticking the box flashtools will not report error even tho there is no error

I would download Flashtool if you didn't already have it and use it to root your phone. You can use it to flash ftf files without having to use the PC Companion and it has built in root functionality.
You can't root firmware .62 or above. Either downgrade to .58 or lower, or live without root since you're not planning on unlocking
that's also my trouble and i don't know why!!!!
i tried a lot of ways and didn't work so please help me also -_-.....

try a different ftf... for example if you tried 55 stock, try a different one.
maybe their was an error in that version of the released stock firmware.
example for ion: their are (for example)
.7
.63
.20
if im having trouble with any .7 version (which i was)
i would switch to the .63 version (which i did)
or
See if there is any app or mod you installed recently that is either incompatible or has bugs (credit to |HBHs| Acidburns)
There is nothing wrong with .55 deodex Rom..see my battery details

I can confirm I have the same problem. I am using an Xperia SL. I flashed the stock, unrooted rom for xperia S, now I cant go back to my original firmware... The problem is still present. Annoying that my phone is now showing as an xperia S...
The problem is that I cannot receive calls and my sms messages are delayed. But I can call and send SMS just fine... Starting to think its a hardware problem.
Hali.
Please post me anyone:
adb shell
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
print
Thanx.
I am having the same issues

Need help with Acro S - Will pay $ (see inside)

So I updated my stock Acro S to Jellybean a couple weeks ago and have a few problems. Basically, everything is slow, it only uses the stock dialer to make and receive calls, sometimes apps hang when opening and wifi may be disconnecting more often.
Years ago I was unlocking my windows mobile phones and flashing ROMs so I have a rough idea of the process. But so many years have gone by and I just don't have the time to get into all of that again. Therefore I am looking for someone to do the following:
Recommend a stable, good ROM that I am not going to have to update i a months time.
Give me the links I need for all files that will be needed in the process.
Give me step by step instructions including what I need to backup.
And if I need support (I am quite technically capable and shouldn't need any) answer some questions.
In return for this I will paypal you $50.
PM me if interested.
Well use the latest ICS rom first,because it is the most stable with Sony features...you should probably found the ftf file in here...do some search...look for the ftf file of your phone with the build number in ny screenshot
And then,backup your file or any necessary thing using Sony backup and restore application...or titanium backip if you have any
Then flash the ftf file using flashtool (make sure you install driver for your phone),connect yout phone in flashmode and flash the file
And no need to pay me,I only help my fellow ion brothers aka Acro S and S and SL :3

Hi,
I appreciate the help you are offering, and I don't mean to belittle it in anyway. But...I'm super busy these days and just have too much going on to look for flash tools and various files. That is why I offered the money. I know I could figure this all out if I sat down and did the research, I just don't have the time.
The thing is, I need it all laid out and simple.
I thank you again for taking the time to help me for free.
For anyone else still interested, the offer stands.
Have you tried custom ROMs. I'm currently using Trinity ROM and its very smooth less bloatware and it's optional if you want to update it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2318292
Backup your apps and data, using titanium backup(playstore).
Wipe data, Flash the zip via recovery.
Restore.
Done.
with all the terms you laid out bro, i think you need someone that's physically there holding your phone or at least someone that you can leave your phone to for say about 2 hours just so they can do all the tweaks needed for your phone to be stable

It's easy just download the runtimeskin.zip from the provided link and flash it using flash Gordon or move it manually using root explorer ( Root needed)
