screenshot
Attached
I've rooted my phone using VRoot_1.7.5.5379 and it was successfully rooted .... installed busybox .
my problem is : internal memory available for apps is 2.03GB so I can't install many apps or games
I tried to mount sd card second partition using link2sd but it didn't work .
( I tried ext3 , ext2 , ext 4 and fat32 for the second partition of SD card ,,,,, but all of them didn't work .
also used foldermount and didn't work .
I tried also gl2sd and when I try to use it the phone restarts and never boots up I only see Sony logo .
I really really really got sad with that stupid sony product ... please help me please .!!!! [/COLOR]

Hi,after updating my Sony Xperia M to 4.3 Jelly Bean using Sony PC Companion,Framaroot (1.9.1) doesn't work it says failed try another exploit if available,What should i do? the Gandalf exploit doesn't work anymore after the 4.3 update,Now i'm planning to try another available exploit called Aragorn,Is it safe to use on 4.3?

Please help.

doesn't work in xperia v 4.3 too
I hope that the devs will make an exploit that will work on 4.3 The next couple of weeks,Having no root access is a disadvantage especially for us. ( Xperia M users) Because of the low internal memory problem we can't play hd games with big data files,The solution that i found for that is rooting and Using Directory Binder from Lucky Patcher and another problem is those battery hogging bloatwares,We can't remove those bloatwares because we don't have a root access,I noticed that after i updated to 4.3,The battery drains fast,And i think it's because of those damn bloatwares.

Disable animations
A hidden settings option in Android will give you access
to commands you may have never known existed. Go to
Settings, About Phone, scroll down to Build number, and
tap it seven times. You will now have access to
developer options. These special settings allow you to
do a variety of things, but they are meant for advanced
users and shouldn't be changed unless you know what
you are doing.
One tweak that could speed up your device is disabling
animations within the operating system. To do this, open
Settings, go to Developer options, and scroll down to
the Drawing option. Next, turn off the Window animation
scale, Transition animation scale, and Animator duration
scale. This will disable animations that occur when you
open, close, and switch between apps. Although the
interface will look less polished, there should be less lag
in performance.
Note:Works on other devices too.

If you don't want to wait for a root method, then just unlock your bootloader. This will make your /system partition writable, and then you can just use SuperSU to instal the su binary...

Well, Xperia M doesn't come with Bravia Engine oficially, but yes, you'll lose Bravia Engine, TrackID and Download music/video info functionality from Movies/Walkman app, along with other proprietary Sony features that I don't remember now.
BUT you can make a TA backup, enjoy root from unlocked bootloader, and when a working root method for locked bootloaders arrive, you restore your TA backup to relock your BL and get the proprietary Sony features back...
I still prefer to wait for a new root method, but there's always a method (although hard) to get root without waiting for new exploits

Nice but...an heads-up: I strongly suspect that as soon as you unlock the bootloader you void your warranty (actually to unlock you have to communicate to Sony your IMEI); it doesn't matter if you then come back locking again

hello ,
I Wanted to know if ROMs of xperia S would work on My xperia SL AS well ? I was looking forward to flash my xperia SL with mokee ROM or MIUI but was unable to find A special customized ROM for xperia SL n i read sumwer that Xperia S and SL has the same one. I would like to know if its really true and if not which ROMs are available for my phone. ?*
thank you , please suggest me a way.

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..
