Hi,
i made a small script which is able to root ICS/JB phones. It uses a remount timing issue in Androids "adb restore" service.
So normally it should work on nearly all ICS/JB devices, for some it won't but the idea may work in a slightly modded version
There is a case for Xperia T and Xperia S,P etc. phones, this phones run ICS but don't have android's native restore with adb, Sony has added a own custom "Backup&Restore" app, the script handles this cases too, just choose the correct option!

fakebackup.ab is the file which is used for XperiaT and other devices which can do directly "adb restore"
vpnfaker is from tabletS rooting trick, i removed it now because someone else has posted already a good version in TabletS forum

In your batch file you have the following lines:
Code:
echo Device type:
echo 1) Xperia T
echo 2) Tablet S
echo 3) LT26,LT22 etc.
echo 4) Other
set /p type=Make a choice:
if %type% == 1 GOTO XPT
if %type% == 2 GOTO XPS
if %type% == 3 GOTO OTHER
By choosing 4 the script won't do anything as nothing is defined for that operation.
reuploaded the script, a little error in choice. sorry for that !

1. Do i have to factory wipe to update to .20?
2. If I flash .20 downloaded from Asus site which means I need to push TWRP again right?

Hi !
Factory-reset not required ! ( will be enough wipe cache and dalvik-cache ! )
In the future, I will remove the boot loader and recovery from Asus blob files , to not having to re-install TWRP/CWM recovery ! :good:
thanks very much!
This worked well but there's something I want to ask.... if i wipe dalvik cache and cache ONCE, every time i reboot it will say "Android is upgrading" . Does anyone knows why? ( This happens all the time when i use stock or stock based roms, it doesn't happen if I use cyanogenmod.)

Appreciate you adding the Reboot/Recovery menu too, I use that a lot.

Install as normal apk. And get Xperia Home Launcher.
No need to flash.
Requirements- Android 4.4+
Working fine on Lollipop and Marshmallow too...
Edit : Go to following thread for updated version with double tap 2 sleep feature. But need to flash then. As direct installing is unsupported now.

Arise Sound Systems, Divine Beats Gaana Edition, Biohazard... all work but need SE Linux to be permissive and Busy Box too. The links are in the OP. Please read the OP of the post before commenting. We can't directly share file links, XDA Rules mate.

Which Busybox did you download, and did you open the app to install Busybox as tywinlannister suggested?
Also, what error are you getting, you didn't mention if the error was with Viper or with Busybox?

Try downloading/flashing the Viper4Arise Swansong build from the ARISE thread linked by tywinlannister. It's a big clickable SwanSong™ under the 'Meet the Arise team' section on the opening post. You may also find the main ARISE Google+ page a useful resource (e.g. here's someone else with the same error. https://plus.google.com/111150029808118208419/posts/VP2NjJ6hEYc Have a look through the 20 or so comments and see if there's anything helpful in that - ignore the off topic comments towards the end).
Also, check you've got audio_effects.conf and vendor_audio_effects.conf in /system/etc using a root browser. See this post by the ARISE team on their Google+ page. https://plus.google.com/+JasonPasch5/posts/AYUSSo5mG9t

@Adarsh balu
The issue is probably with Viper not getting Storage permissions. I/O is to do with input and output of data transfer on a peripheral device, which is what makes me think it's that.
See if it has it under Apps > Vioer4Android > Permissions > Storage
It's a wild guess based on logic - could be wrong. Let us know if it works. See if you need to flash another zip. Sometimes that uses to fix issues for me. I always used Viper4Arise not Viper4Android...

Swansong (Viper4Arise)
I have installed SwanSong and the sound is amazing. SwanSong have an aroma interface and it will be easy for you to install it with all the guides inside the installer. Here are the steps I have done to install it (Same as provided by @tywinlannister).
1. Install the BusyBox app and also install BusyBox inside it.
2. Set SELinux to be permissive. (This is important, but you can do it during the installation of SwanSong).
3. Flash Arise Sound Systems zip from the link https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=151719
(Click Aroma & look for ARISE+Deuteronomy+2.94+Modular+AROMA+Installer.zip)
4. Reboot to system.
5. Configure the mods.
6. Reboot again.
This is the recommended setup from the developer itself while flashing SwanSong in Aroma. (Thanks to guitardedhero)
I would recommend Core (mandatory, if not already installed), ViPER4Arise™ 2.5.0.5, Profiles, Arkamys™, ICEsound™, Skip Config and Preset, MusicFX (unless you know it's already installed, this script will leave an existing MusicFX installation intact and end, just in case), permissive (do not, if Enforcing Mode is preferred), Repair SD Card Permissions (allow up to 3-5 minutes of additional time for this script).
Once booted:
Android Settings > Apps > Menu > Show System > Arkamys > Enable Phone Permissions
Android Settings > Apps > Menu > Show System > ViPER4Arise > Enable Storage Permissions
Open ViPER4Arise™ and select Audiophile™ X profile from the Load Effect Profile option in Menu.
On displayed output tab:
Master Power > Off
Master Power > On
Menu > Device Status
Should show Enabled, Normal, and Processing: Yes (at least during audio playback for some scenarios)
If you want to select ViPER4Arise™ through a media player's Equalizer option (not necessary, recommended for users that prefer to get to ViPER4Arise™ through a media player rather than launch the app from Recents or App Drawer):
Android Settings > Apps > Menu > Show System > MusicFX > Disable
Reboot for good measure.
Hope it will help for you. If anything bad happens, just dirty flash your rom (only wipe cache and dalvik) and everything will be good. :good:
NB: There will be a lot of modules during the aroma installation which you can skip (Toolkit, Dolby Plus, Dolby Atmos etc) if it is not mentioned in the recommended setup. Its your choice. Enjoy a crystal clear sound from the great developers.
