hi, i'm trying to deodex xperia t ( rooted using doomlord easykit, locked bootloader, cwm installed ) using instructions at this thread
i am on JB 4.1.2, build number 9.1.A.1.141, stock kernel 3.4.0-g5b052b2 which is the latest for my phone as there is no update showing in update center. so should i do instruction no.2 ( "Make sure, you have latest JellyBean kernel from Sony (or latest kernel from DooMLoRD) installed" ) or skip that part ?
i'm a newbie to this page, so cant post there. replies will be highly appreciated, thanks

I just installed GingerElite V2 on my X8 and have had a good experience with it. But I just noticed one issue that keeps bugging me, in the about phone settings the model number is displayed as E16i which is wrong as I have the E15i. I tried changing the build.prop file but it keeps restoring the E16i model name, is there any permenant way of fixing this?
PS: I changed the build.prop with root access so it is not about my modifications being rejected-its the system restoring the default value.
Also I have done research but could not find any help.
I use gingerelite v3...it is the same, maybe can't change.

Not sure about this, but is there 2 build.prop files in GingerElite? One in /system and one in /system/bin? Change both if this is the case.

=====================================
as u say u tried CM10 4.0.2 ICS Rom. u must have unlocked Boot loader and custom nAa - jb kernel ( ana JB xxxx )
flash the stock kernel. relock boot loader with s1 tool
Be careful don't lock bootloader with cutom kernel. First flash stock kernel and then lock it.
locking the bootloader wtih custom kernel will brick your phone.
and then revert back to stock ROM
Procedure Sony companion ,
1. install Sony PC companion on computer.
2. click support zone with out connecting the phone. & follow
3. select X8 from list and follow instructions.
let me know for if you need these stock files
cheers!

Another Method ( give it a try )
1. go to recovery
2. format all partitons ( including system )
3. reflash desired kernel
4. flash desired ROM
let me know if it works.....
hi im trying to figure out what to install on my brothers xperia TL. i want to install a deodexed stock rom preferably the lastest. so that he can tether and get the reboot options for the power menu. i've looked around but everything got confusing with all the fw numbers. he is rooted locked bootloader ICS currently
if you want a deodexed rom you need to check the development thread. Xperiment is one for the TL, but mine should work as well.
Or you can update via pccompanion and deodex it yourself in dsixdas kitchen.

@LilleJohn if you are trying to install JB 4.3 remember that you can't use a kernel for JB 4.1.2. This will give you bootloop for sure

I don't think so, it's 4.12. Either you stick with stock based 2.5, or you go to KK.

Hello mate.
1) On the title you are say that you want to install custom roms for unlocked bootloader, so i suppose you are talking about roms like cm11 etc.
In this case you don't have to root your device because unlocking your bootloader and so flashing a new kernel and that kind of roms most of the times are pre-rooted.
2) You can access the recovery mode by using the UP volume key.
Some custom kernels, such as the one from DooMLorD have integrated 3 recoveries, so you can use the Volume UP key, the Volume Down key and the Camera button. Different buttons have access to different kind of recoveries.
3) You have to try and see the rom that suits you more. Some users prefer cm, other stock roms etc. The only solution for you is to try and find the one you like more.
4) Last but not least ----> Don't flash kernels from other devices to your phone. Only if the kernel is developed for the Xperia V you can use it.
Kernels are device and firmware specific.
You can't install a kernel from the Xperia T to the Xperia V and you can' t install a kernel made for JB 4.1.2 to JB 4.3
Hope these tips can give you a hand
stock ROM is the best

It is usually the best for those who do not wish to experiment, and it's like a big box of pralines with 3 or 4 pieces inside we really like.

Get yourself a recovery and flash the ROM
How about you use my tutorial as a guidance? Link is in the signature.

Can I flash without custom kernel? I unlocked my BL already.

If you are following the guide, the custom kernel was intended to give you an access to a recovery. Once you flashed the ROM zip the custom kernel will be gone and you will be running the kernel that was packaged with the custom ROM that you have chose to flash.
