Xperia SP 4.3 by DooMLoRD - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello. I did all the steps in DooMLoRD's post, but there is something wrong. The phone is freezing all the time and really slow. After this 1 message appears "System UI has stopped" and then it works better, but when i try to start a game... "(name of the game) has stopped". I ask other guys, but they dont have problens like that on this ROM.
Can you tell me why is that? Thanks in advance!

Did you wipe your phone before installing? Try to install the DooMLoRD's rooted kernel and do a wipe in Recovery. Then, install the ROM again.

Actually first i have installed the ROM and then kernel (is like that in the instructions)
Is it posible to have that problem if i unlocked the bootloader or root the phone wrong?

As long as your bootloader is unlocked root is not important for flashing this ROM. And if you already managed to install custom kernel (for example for aosp based rom) then you successfully unlocked your bootloader. Maybe as the previous post said, try to install DooMLoRD's kernel (The old one) then reboot recovery, wipe, flash 4.3 zip and it should work

I have installed this one: SP-4.3_leak_256-DooMLoRD_AdvStkKernel-v1 Is that the new one ?
I found this: SP-DooMKernel-v03 and SP-DooMKernel-v04
Is that the older kernels ? Because i try the kernel in the ZIP with the ROM and there is no recovery...

Guys....
Im trying to install leaked 4.3 but have issue
1.flashed .254 using flash tool
2.Rebooted
3.Flashed Advanced kernel via fastboot
4.Rebooted
but when i turn on the phone after that,it vibrates once and then there is no display.
so i flashed .254 stock kernal but that didnt fix the issue
As of now im on .254 stock ROM with bootloader locked again
Please explain me step by step process to get this done with 4.3 plzzz
Please note that my phone even though was c5302 always displayed as c5303 in PC companion but it isnt now.

Okay! Do it this way
Unlock ur Bootloader
Flash stock .254 ftf
Then root and install cwm by locked bootloader method
( by installing previous firmware kernel ftf, root by doomloard kit, install cwm of locked bootloader then flash ur latest. 254 kernel ftf)
Now just flash the 4.3 rom through Cwm without Wiping anything

Of course, cause u havent flashed the rom yet! You only flash the kernel, not the rom.
Now do it exactly as you did before, but after flashing the kernel and rebooting, tap the volume uo button continuously until you boot into cwm. And then you can flash the rom through cwm.
Dont forget to copy the zip in your ext sdcard before flashing the kernel!
Cheers.

I don't have the Take Screenshot option in the power menu. Is that normal ? Is it disabled by default or something ?

Many thanks, but can you edit the title to say this is for only the older firmware, as people with locked bootloaders cannot root the newer firmware, it may cause false hope and lots of annoying questions....
many thanks dude, lot of people are waiting for that ... i test it now and report

this worked ok, but after flashing Assaye V 003, i can't get into recovery, i re-ran install.bat, still the same, pressing volume down does not enter recovery anymore.
I was rooted the second time round too.

volume up to get to recovery
doh.. cheers mate
Volume up doesnt work either, does when on .303, but after flashing .195, no joy in getting into recovery
Would this work on the Xperia TL running .303 rooted?

Hmmm... It works for me
Just after flash .195, I re-installed recovery - install.bat
I think we need to make sure we are on stock 195 kernel. Try flashing this in flashtool and see if it works then
Im on a stock kernel, now on the FTF Kernel your provided in your ROM thread, for some reason, when i flash your ROM, CWM gets removed, i can't go back into it, i have to flash .303, and then use CWM to flash your ROM, i had to do this to upgrade form 003 to 004.
Locked bootloader, running Assaye v4. thanks to CWM. we just need a flashable version to flash after we flash roms.
You rock bro.
Device : Xperia T locked to rogers, rooted and free from carrier apps.

There's an easy fix for this as i just came from the xperia s and had to deal with a locked boot loader on it as well.
We need a flashable version of CWM. this way after you flash a rom before you reboot your device you install CWM, then reboot. then you have ROM and CWM.
I guess you could also try and run the bat file again. (didn't work.)

What kernel did you flash, CM have their own set of kernels and using the stock kernel with CM will cause boot-loops and this may be your problem! Flash the kernel from the CM package first then reflash the ROM, or if the kernel was the problem then flashing it via flashtool will solve the problem altogether without reflashing the ROM!!
Hit THANKS if I helped!!

What where you trying to flash? If it was the CM kernel, then are you sure that you have unlocked the boot-loader the right way?

Is it a drivers problem?!! Have you installed the fastboot drivers first?
No, no, no!!
You flash the CM10 kernel via fastboot. Boot loop is because you're missing the correct kernel (you still have stock kernel)

sounds like a kernel issue.
Code:
Locked bootloader
1. Root with Bin4ry's method(*)
2. install CWM for locked bootloaders.(*)
3. Go to recovery, wipe cache & dalvik-cache
4. Flash ROM
5. Flash kernel .140 (if you haven't already)
6. Reboot.
7. When CWM asks "ROM may flash stock recovery on boot. Fix?", answer "No".
8. Enjoy
(*) skip these steps if you're already on a custom ROM with CWM recovery or unlocked bootlader.
Are you sure you did all these?

This one..., im just connecting xperia t with usb debugg ,and via PC click install.bat ,something wrong?
That should be fine.
Next try this.
Flash it again, but this time goto
mouts and storage and make sure you mount system first, then flash it...
EDIT:
Just a thought, after flashing the rom are you wiping system as well as dalvik and cache...if so then D'OH, don't wipe system, that deletes the rom you just installed
after flashing rom? i dont wipe anything , just before flashing
ok

I dont undestand, what do u mean goto mouts and storage and make "SURE you mount system first" ?

goto the section that says

then choose mount system
then flash the rom
will do in 30mins, will say progress here
it still nothing... just vibrating
Redownload the .zip file

You cant install custom kernels but you should be able to install stock based roms.
Are you trying to install a kernel? If so then dont.
Repair in pccompanion, root, install cmw recovery and flash rom.
It should work, if not try a different rom that is stock based

I'll be grateful if u can show me rom which can work on my XPERIA T , I'm not experienced enough to choose stock or not ,sorry for problems..
And if u can say, how i can get flashtool? I will try this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2026885
I have got EMMA but its not avaible for me...
Of coyrse you cant use emma. If you read the instructions its for unlocked bootloaders.
In order to get flashtool just look in the dev section for it.
To decide if a rom is stock based, read the op of the roms thread, it will say what it is based on there.
You should be able to flash my rom if you follow the instructions properly

[Q] How to Revert to STOCK ROM [ LB ]

Hello Team,
I have successfully rooted my XSp using the DoolLord Method and also flashed the CWM but kept LB.
Few days ago I have installed Custom Rom but this made me lose my CWM. I have tried many ways to get my CWM back again but in vain. I do not get the second vibration after the sony Logo to get into CWM.
I have again went through the root procedures of DoomLord, the reboot fix and the Flashed the CWM. I now get the second vibration after the sony logo pressing the Vol + button should get me to CWM but the Xsp reboots. I am now out of steps.
An advise regarding this will be very helpful.
1. I need to get back to my stock Rom [C5302_12.0.A.2.254_India.ftf] using flashtool. So does it require unlocked bootloader to flash it?
2. Is there any way I can get the CWM back keeping this custom ROM so that i could restore the backup i have taken through CWM before installing this custom rom ?
Hope this thread finds helpful to people working on LB.

1. You can flash stock firmware using flashtool even if you are on locked bootloader
2. Try to install cwm manually by just moving the files and giving them right permission if not flash stock rom using flastool then root, install cwm and the restore your backup

This is called a bootloop. All you need to do is press VOL UP + POWER, then connect your phone to your computer in flashmode (connect USB while holding VOL DOWN button) and flash .534 using Flashtool
Yep, just Hold Volume Down, connect to PC and flash a Stock FTF.

No just go into recovery, flash the monxdified rom zip and then clear cache and dalvik. I have done the same thing and it works perfectly fine. You can flash any 4.3 rom in this way, as you are on the same firmware.

Monxdified, iHackers and all stock based roms don't need a custom kernel (that's why you don't need to be bootloader unlocked to use them)
Just go into your recovery flash the zip. After the zip is flashed you will get an option to clear dalvik and cache.
It is always recommended to do a factory reset before flashing a custom rom, as it might misbehave. You can however try it without factory reset and then if you see that it doesn't work properly just do a factory reset and flash the rom zip again.
