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?

Hello,
I installed the TrueAncestor V1.6 LE rom on my Xperia Play and it works really great !
The only problem I have is I can't install Dead Trigger from Goole Play. It says my device is not compatible with this version ...
So i tried installing it with an apk i got somewhere else, and the game loads fine into the menu, but when I start the mission I got an infinite loading screen and the phone doesn't work anymore, only way to reboot is to remove the battery.
Can anybody tell me why it does'nt work anymore (it worked great with the official stock rom), and tell me what to do to get it working.
Thank you ! :laugh:

i found the apk and data else where and it worked however i can't post links due to it being a kinda "warez" site
You need to edit your build.prop it has already been mentioned in the DeadTrigger thread in Xperia Play Themes And Apps
Thank you for your reply.
Yes I saw this post mentionning the build.prop file, but I don't know what I should edit ... Can you tell me what I should do please ?
try this file.its stock 2.3.4 .58 enhanced build.prop
Just extract it and then replace the build.prop in /system with this build.prop

Thank you for your quick reply, I really appreciate.
In fact I was using the wrong apk (V1.01 instead of V1.1.1), so now it works with the good one.
I will still keep youy build.prop in case I need it in the futrue.
Thanks again ! :good:
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.

Hello everyone,
This is the stock 6.1.A.2.55 rom for XPERIA SL LT26II as a flash-able CWM zip extracted and built by me. Some features are :-
---> Pre-rooted with latest Superuser binaries and apk.
---> Busybox pre-installed
---> Removed the apks in /system/etc/product and /system/etc/customization. These are the apks that are removable by the user without root but some times re-appear after a reboot.
---> Deodexed
---> Rest everything is absolutely stock. No other modifications.
---> Fixed USB, superuser and WiFi problem.
As I don't have a Xperia SL LT26ii, please let me know if the rom works. This rom should even work on locked bootloader.
Download link - http://d-h.st/Jc4
Installation instructions :-
0. Download the zip and place it in the internal storage of your phone.
1. Enter CWM.
2. Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik cache. Then go to mounts and storage, format /system.
3. Select install zip from sd card ( the internal storage ).
4. Chose the zip and wait until installation is complete.
5. First boot may take some time.
6. Go to settings--->Apps--->All and force stop Superuser.
7. Enjoy and don't forget to press the thanks button.

I will test and report as soon as possible. Thanks
thank u for rom.

Works on locked bootloader but I have trouble connecting to my WiFi (Stays stuck on 'Obtaining IP Address').
Don't know about Bravia Engine since I don't have time to test.
xLoud works perfectly.

Damn. Will fix everything asap, start building from base again.
As for the USB problem, just reboot twice and it should work. Also, has anyone tried flashing xperia sl rom on xperia s LT26i? If it works, then I can test before releasing the updated rom.:victory:

I´ll try it when it become deodexed. :good:
For now it passes all the setup and it will still notify that there is an new system update for 6.1.A.2.55 using PC Companion but don't update it, instead of updating it, flash your device with flashtools using your own stock 6.1.A.2.55 ftf by excluding system and wipe data, after doing this the the update will no longer required to update using PC Companion and you still have root access.
I have not fully tested the rom yet so in the meantime don't know if theres any bug, battery performance and others, will update here if everythings works fine.
Thanks for the ROM....
I have the following problem with every rom i tried...after installing gltools something goes always crazy.....this time the messaging app couldn't receive messages and send mine only after 5 min....also video playback gave an error along with music players.....but it gives huge boost to my games so i want to ask if anyone succeded in installing gltools......i am using nxt le rom and lupus gingerbread v12. anyone with ideas is welcome to anwser.

"Newer" Chainfire 3d
@op
Are u sure that it works with our device? Maybe its incompatible (doesnt matter what gplay says)? Its installing its files which can break something in rom like any mod.
Why u dont use chainfire which works on gb roms?
Sent using C6833 - AICP/GreatDevs
i want to use gltools because it has more options than chainfire 3d...it replaces this files in system/lib libEGL.so libGLESv1_CM.so libGLESv2.so they look like they don't have to do with phone and messaging.....
