[solved] XV unlocked bootloader, receiving notification to update. - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

Thread title kind of explains it. After unlocking my XperiaV's bootloader last night and flashing SpidaSingh's kernel (the version without recovery), I have a notification that I can't get rid of telling me that 9.0.1.D.0.10 is available, even though that's what I'm running and have been running since I OTA'd it a couple weeks ago. I've heard that really bad things can happen if I do an OTA with an unlocked bootloader, otherwise I would just let the update run. I'm new tuo Xperia, and I can't find a way in settings to not have it automatically look for updates, and of course I'm also a bit confused why it would want me to update the firmware that's already being reported in settings. Any suggestions? Thanks!

You can just delete the app which provides the information about the updates. You can use f.e. Anttek App Manager or Titanium Backup (both free on GP) and just delete the app.
I did the same on my Xperia T - nothing wrong happened, everything is fine

May I suggest you freeze the app instead, that's what I did, solves the problem yet should you want the app back or to receive the ota you can just unfreeze it

That's what I did, though actually the problem seems to have resolved itself after flashing a custom rom, go figure.

[Q] freezing apps problem

hi everybody. since when i started using the note i had problems in freezing/defreezing apps. i tried rom toolbox pro, titanium backup, anttek app manager and the last version of sd maid, but the only one that works is the anttek one. i wrote to every developer of each app without receiving any answer. someone of you has some ideas about the reasons of this problem?
What's the problem you're having? When freezing, are they not, or when unfreezing is it causing issues? What apps specifically are you freezing?

You don't have proper root.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
As stated above you need to be rooted - as for TB: it has (had?) some problems with unfreezing apps, what works for me is Root App Delete - which surprisingly does not delete apps, only renames them to *.bak, to be removed if you want later.
It's not on your list so you could try this one as well.

When i try to freeze apps, the process never end, so i have to end it manually. After that the app results freezed. If i try to defreeze it, the process never end again, so i end it by myself, but after that the apps is always freezed. I tried to wait, but after 20 mins the process was still going.

I have also root app delete, but i would prefer a more specialized app, like rom toolbox or titanium. Anyway, if i recycle an app without deleting it, it is like freezed. I should try this if it is like that. Thanks!

Developer of SD Maid here.
Could you pm me your email adress?
I never received an email from you. I answer every email i get, if i understand it (sometimes the translator can't make sense out of russian emails ).
If you turn on DEBUG output in SD Maids settings and email me (support @ thedarken [dot] eu) an android log, i can work on fixing the issue.

Oops. Sorry my fault. I haven't never email you. I didn't want to lie, so excuse me. But i don't know how to show you the problem, because the program doesn't show any error, it can't simply complete the operation. If you can explain me how to show you the exact problem, i'll do immediately. Thanks alot for your time.

In SDMAID, go to settings, general, turn on "DEBUG" output.
Download an app like "aLogCat", have it record the android log, then start sd maid, reproduce the problem and mail me the log.
Turning DEBUG on will make SD Maid very chatty in the log, giving alot of extra info on what it is doing, which might help me pin down the cause for the problem.
Blimey, personal support from Dev... Will be taking a look at your apps Dark3n ;-)

Having the same problems as @asusgarb
I'm using MyToolbox in MyBackUp Pro. Running Stock deodexed ROM XXLC1 with franco.kernel test version (soon to be renamed v10).
As said earlier, Freeze just stops instead of giving the reboot dialog box. Manual reboot yields frozen app. Unfreeze works the same. Just stops but the app and the device are not locked up. Reboot yields still frozen. Dev has no answer yet.

Try SD Maid, does it have this problem too?
If it does, turn on debug output and get me a log.
Found a solution!
App Quarantine (free @ Play) solved the unfreeze problem for me! It unfreezes all frozen apps and then I refroze the apps I wanted frozen using MyBackUp Pro again.
Here is the developer's blog page with the easy instructions.
http://ramdroid.wordpress.com/2012/01/16/app-quarantine-solves-ebm-policy-issues-on-galaxy-note/
It took a total of 5 minutes to unfreeze and re-freeze using this method. It is similar to the restore all button in Titanium BU as I understand it. All I know is it worked for me!!!
Thanks for the reply Dark3n. I found this solution before I saw your reply.

[Q] GingerDXv027 - Youtube App

Still wonder why Titanium Backup done this only to this app, and how did you know this? HAHA
I'm not sure who's responsible for that. It could be Ginger DX.
Anyway, I found that while randomly browsing TB. I have also another app frozen, not only on GDX but in other ROMs too. It's "Market apps installer" with the cyanogenmod icon.

Actually it's not (same as the Market Apps Installer being talked about below your post). If you take a close look there's not a single script anywhere to freeze any of these two apps, nor is there any hack in the system.
Also, YouTube.apk is in /system/app if you look - so if you installed / upgraded correctly (flash, full-wipe) there are no problems and the YouTube app will also show in the app drawer.
I said it could be GDX but I highly doubted it. But what about market apps installer? I have found it frozen in every recent ROM I've tried.

Xperia T can't perform root actions

My XT used to be fine: unlocked bootloader, rooted, could uninstall what I wanted...
But as some of you know, after flashing Sony's JB ftf, and following root methods, the SuperSU apk is installed, but doesn't work...
My phone claims to be rooted... but no system apps can be uninstalled, I have now realized that this is permanent. I have flashed CM10 and the deletion of system files still fails...
Thanks in advance.
P.S. Just encase you tell me to try again or that I did something wrong, I DEFINITELY did stuff how they are supposed to be done and tried many times.

I'll use Sony's flashtool and go back to ICS, that should fix it.
I might just have to wait for the official update, things might work for me then.
Have you tried flashing supersu and binaries in recovery? You can download it from chainfires thread

Or just use the pre rooted zip from timin8r in development section (stock, rooted and deodexed).
Also kernel is flashable trough zip so all you need is cwm to start with.

Yep, tried all of that, still didn't work. Very strange. Flashed stock ICS ftf, just gonna wait until the JB update is available on Sony Flashtool, things might work better then, for some reason.
I've heard about some system apps being not just in the system folder, but in another folder too (might have been data?) It's happened before that people delete the one in the system folder but the app pops back after a reboot... probably won't help, but always worth checking?

DJ-Tumor: I have a European version of Tablet Z. Originally, it came with .344 firmware which I rooted using some method floating around this forum. Then the update to .370 came. First, I installed OTA RootKeeper as advised by someone and made a backup of the root. Then I simply updated the tablet using the built-in Sony's Software update app.
After reboot, the system was still rooted. I am not sure if root survived the update or RootKeeper did it (I am not really familiar with the application). Nevertheless, I now have .370 rooted system and can verify that Bluetooth works fine (I just tried it and it discovered two BT device).
I have the 16GB model SGP311.
Good for you guys....but I still can´t update (Update impossible it says even though I ONLY ROOTED IT).
But what I wanted and seemingly no one understood... I NEED EUROPEAN FIRMWARE 344.
I have a feeling that it´s the Japan firmware why my tablet has infunctional Bluetooth.

Problems with helium (non-premium)

Hi guys, I finally made the decision to root my z1,but first of all, I need to back it up. Problems are :
1. Sony pc companion backup is cr*p.
2. So I opted to using helium. Now, I got all settings up. Downloaded the pc counterpart of the app, downloaded the Android app from Google store, set up into debug mode. Helium requires my phone on PTP mode, which I do, but 1 second later, it comes back to MTP mode.
Did I miss anything? I tried downloading "drivers" from helium 's suggestions, but the one they have their is older than my SPCC.
Thanks in advance! I really look forward to rooting my device and getting it's benefits. Cheers!

I had the same problem, and I didn't find any solutions (I have Helium Premium). I ended up backing up my phone using Sonys software, just to be on the safe side. Rooting does not wipe your phone (at least not the method I used), but better safe than sorry. Unlocking on the other hand will wipe your phone!
After root, I installed Titanium and made all the backups I wanted. I also installed dual recovery (still without wiping the phone) and made a Nandroid bckup.
Titanium backup always work, use that in the future. It is worth the money, all others I have tried have been of no use

He's right. Move all files from internal memory to the PC and then use titanium backup. It's able to back up your entire phone including the application data. Duh. It can actually backup your entire device with system apps and it's data.
