Acro S, S and SL pretty much share the same stock rom. However from what I believe the rom was edited a little bit to make it compatible with the devices it works on. I would be working on Acro S rom on SL after i get a hold of an SL. But it depends. I got no budget now. I would make Customizable roms if I can get a hold of all 3 Devices FTF files from the first stock rom till the most recent roms. I only have the Acro S first till the latest stock rom. Only thing I need now is people helping me to get back ups of STOCK ROMS from SL. Xperia S i prety much have an Idea of where to get it from.

Very good bro
Take your time do some quality work

So, what is the final verdict? Can I take the CM10 for Xperia S and just flash it? Would it work? I am planning on finding out tomorrow anyways

Did it work???

Is it better to stick with a stock Xperia SL or to root, unlock and install a custom kernel and rom on it? Just wanting to know because I may soon want to do it or maybe not, depending on how it is from your experience.

i have already rooted it but don't know what to do next?? Are there any custom roms available for SL?

[Solved] Does Xperia S kernels work on Xperia SL?

I just unlocked my Xperia SL bootloader. I'm wondering that there is no post about Xperia SL. So i wanna know LT26i (S) kernels works on LT26ii (SL).
If so will Advanced Kernel works on my Xperia SL

I don't know how to flash *.elf files. Can anyone tell me about that
Thanks

Re: [Q] Does Xperia S kernels work on Xperia SL?
Yes but unless it's an overclocking kernel you'll run @1.5 ghz
And read the all you need to know bit in the S development forum, it shows you how to fastboot a kernel with cwm etc and is just a very useful read

Xperia S roms work at Xperia SL?

Hi my friends, i m sorry my bad english,
i have Xperia SL and i like roms (miui,cm9 ..)
my ask= xperia s roms work at my xperia sl?
i dont want bad camera and slow speed

Yes it will work, but then the SL CPU maximum frequency will be 1.5 GhZ. not 1.7

Depending on what rom etc you pick you can just add a compatible overclocking kernel to put you back to 1.7 ghz

[Q] Crossflash sl rom to s??

Hey guys, if xperia sl owners can flash xperia s roms, can we flash xperia sl's official jb on s and get a mild speed bump. Maybe 1080p could be recorded again?
Right now I am on official jb, rooted and bl unlocked.
Thanks

I'm pretty sure I read before somewhere not to flash back the other way due to the S being older it lacks something the SL has. Hopefully someone can confirm

Thanks anyways,
I would have experimented myself but coming from galaxy's I am not sure I could make my even soft bricked xperia work again. Bootloaders are a headache!

Bump
Anyone knows the answer? Still waiting u know

note
Sony Xperia S and SL are almost identical its just that SL is over-clocked.. simple as. flashing a SL ROM on S wouldn't make even a tiny difference
take note , that some Xperias can handle above 1.7ghz clock on the CPU my Xperia s can handle the CPU to be over clocked but it depends on the voltage of that clock ,
for more info please reply

I know, I myself oc'ed my xperia to 1.89ghz.
But currently there is no custom kernel that can be oc'ed, aand camera video @ 1080p is really laggy, thats why I was thinking of crossflash.
And I think sl has a different bluetooth version as well.
Has anyone tried this before?

And I am thinking of flashing it via flashtool. So can anyone tell me that if my device gets soft bricked, I put it in download mode and flash a compatible rom right?

There is a custom kernel that allows you to overclock to 1728 MHz. Try the new DoomKernel . So no need to crossflash.

According to GSM Arena, Xperia S and SL seems to be the same. They got the same chipset, same GPU and pretty much the same hardware. Only a few minor things seems to differ.
But I find nothing about Xperia N (Misspelling? Typo?)
http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_sl-4894.php
http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_s-4369.php
But I cannot promise it would work. On a logical level, these devices can differ. Even to a grade where a kernel might not be able to fully initiate. (With a kernel panic as a result)
Addresses, busses, partitioning scheme , flash ICs, and other stuff can differ. It could be a completely different board, even if the same chipset, GPU and other hardware is the same.
The only real way to be sure would be to compare these two devices side by side on the inside.
Is it worth the hassle?
One could try to flash a S ROM on the SL device, or the other way around, but make sure you can recover from a paniced kernel first.
One way to recover from a such state would be opening the device, and hardwire JTAG connections, if there are any.
I don't have too much experience recovering from seemingly bricked devices. different devices behave differently. Some have a simple preboot mode which one can use the USB connection to transfer firmwares over. Even when a kernel is malfunctioning completely. Others just become hard bricked, requiring using JTAG connections or similar hard wiring to recover.

Ok then cn u suggest a good ROM fr xperia SL alone? I mean if u cn tell it would b helpful. I tried to find one but couldn't. If not then ill hv to try doing what u said.

You went too complicated Mate. Xperia S and Xperia SL are exacty same, bar some software changes. No need to perform jtag and all to restore, You just need to flash back the stock firmware.

Yes I'm absoulutely sure. I own a Xperia SL and have been used all of the Xperia S ROM's on it. Mokee is good, just use a stable build, not a nightly/release one. You can Google for it. But for installing a Mokee ROM, You need to unlock Your bootloader since You require a custom kernel.

Sorry I m kinda new to routing tell me about custom kernel ?? I have already rooted my device by using flashtool.

First copy the ROM.zip and gapps for that ROM to phone.
Then on PC, extract the boot.img from ROM.zip.
Connect Your phone to PC powered on. Using fastboot, flash the boot.img to Your phone with following commands:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot path/to/boot.img
You will find fastboot.exe in "C:\Flashtool\x10flasher_lib"or where ever You installed the flashtool.
Then Your phone will have a twrp installed. Just boot into twrp, and flash the ROM!
Don't forget to wipe 'data','cache','dalvik cache', 'system' before You flash the ROM.
Then after flashing ROM, just wipe 'cache' and 'dalvik cache' and flash the gapps.
Important: This will delete all Your apps. But Your videos, images, music will be safe as it is stored in 'sdcard'.
DON'T WIPE 'sdcard' AT ALL.

1.7 is not minimum, it is the maximum frequency Our processor can handle. And taking it to 1.9 would kill the battery and phone or render it highly unstable. You won't feel a lag at 1.5 ghz at all, trust Me. Been using at 1.5ghz, the phone doesn't feel slow at all and definitley faster than stock ROM's..
