[Q] Can I update my Xperia TL to 4.3? - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

I have an AT&T Xperia TL and am running 4.1.2 in the US. Is there any way to get the 4.3 update on my phone? AT&Ts development time is horribly slow.

This should answer your question

u can but different devices have different annoyng bugs .eg. touch screen issues . some have wifi issues some of low sound issues and some have no problem at all. bare that in mind when using this rom that u may have problems

Yes, you can but it's a complex, multi-step process. I'm working on a fool-proof guide to preserve LTE and other stuff (reflashed my phone a dozen times).
The guide is now ready.

use some troubleshooting tools to find whats happening, maybe some app runns wild for unknown reasons.
Check in development settings something with show cpu stuff, that can be handy for that. It shows cpu utilization etc. Any process nane there you can google.
if in doubt, go to settings, apps, running, turn some stoff there off, go to cached in same screen, repeat, go back and forth till you find the filthy process
at own risk off course.
its possible an app uses you data a lot and hoggs it, plenty of ways finding that out, like set everything to manual sync to eliminate.
check which apps use lots of data, etc.
Or root device, warranty now void, all own risk, get autostarts app and check those on connection triggered. Disable the buggers you wanna keep.
when culprit found, find developer thread or website and report the bug lol with proof its that app
Thanks for the info..will try these things out .

You mean on downloading and installing apps,right? Or your phone lag with data ON without any download?

[Q] Sony Xperia T WiFi issue!

Hey guys, i recently bought a brand new xperia T, everything is quiet classy in this bond phone except for its WiFi...the problem im facing is that i used to have desire x previously...the spots where desire x showed 3 bars, xperia shows a bar or sometimes just a dot same is the problem with my galaxy nexus, but the nexus hardly drops the connection at v.weak signals on the other hand my xperia drops the connection if the signals are too weak...i just want to know am i the only one experiencing this problem...is it my hardware or what? i hate sony for this!
Sony Xperia T LT30p
Custom Rom 4.1.2 (DooMKernel)
9.1.A.0.489
Only in the beginning I had problems with weak signals. solved it by unchecking the option "avoid poor connections" @ advanced WiFi settings. This would make my phone drop the connection when the signal was low.

I had the same problem then I discovered it happen only in stock firmware or stock based ROM. Try Flashing CM10 or CM10.1. Your problem will likely be solved.

[ROM] Unofficial CM 10.2 for Pollux - LTE (01/08/13)

Disclaimer: I am not responsible if this bricks your device, kills your cat or starts World War 3!
I compiled CM 10.2 for the Tablet Z LTE Version. So far everything seems to work. Do not forget to make a Backup before flashing this.
I wiped data before I tried it, so I don't know if you can flash this over CM 10.1.
Working:
- Bluetooth (sending a file)
- GPS (Going outside getting a fix in 5 seconds)
- LTE (Internet with WiFi off)
- WiFi (Internet with WiFi on)
- Sound (Played Youtube Video)
- Graphics (Epic Citadel Benchmark
- Touchscreen
- SDCard
Not Working:
- Nothing I noticed
Download:

Changelog:
[31/07/13] - Initial build with added blobs from the Xperia Z 10.3.A.0.423 fw
[01/08/13] - Added current firmware blobs from Sonys 307 fw as well as from the Xperia Z 10.3.1.A.0.244 fw

I built the official tree, but added a few binary blobs updated from the 307 firmware and the Xperia Z 4.2.2 release. Its not an official nightly from CM hence the UNOFFICIAL
How is it with bugs? Its stable enought for daily use? You said you added some stuff from the .307 Firmware... Is the better touchscreen Performance included?

The Touchscreen Fix is included. The only bug I encountered yesterday was a rendering issue with the keyboard in Chrome. But with the Update today this is gone for me. I used it for a day now and for me its as stable as CM 10.1 was. But that is subjective, your opinion may differ.
New build uploaded. Also a Screenshot for your viewing pleasure Epic Citadel with Ultra High Quality running at Full Resolution with 33.4 FPS
Thank you much for your build. I installed it with no issues and until now, everything seems under control.
Good job.
Thanks a lot for throwing this together... everything is working great besides the (previously mentioned) screen issue in chrome. The only thing besides that that I've been struggling with is the absence of tablet UI, but it's a small price to pay for the jump from Sony's 4.1.2 to a functional 4.3 Rom.

Hi, have you tried the latest build (01/08/13)? It is much smoother and for me the screen issue in Chrome is gone.

Is there a Manual how to install this?

Anybody that can confirm of you turn NFC off you cannot turn it on again?
Does it work....
Been using this ROM for a few days. It works quite well. It seems to be much faster then the older CM versions.
I have only found a few problems with this.
First is the keyboard. It cliches some times. This happens mostly when using chrome or other browsers. Part of the screen goes black and then comes back to life. After this happening sometimes the keyboard is not visible at all . No biggie, the buttons still work so you can just press the arrow down to get rid of the keyboard and then open it again.
The clock crashes. This has happened at least 3 times. Does not seem to effect the ROM however.
The biggest problems actually seem to be with the gpu. I play real racing 3...A LOT. There are often problems with the graphics that I have never seen before with the older CM versions. The cars simply won´t show at all and sometimes the textures are in the wrong places. This might however be a problem with the game and not the rom itself
I have installed the ROM twice and both times I have suffered from the same problems. Nevertheless I like this ROM and I think it is one of the best at the moment. I will continue to use it and hope that it will be updated to be even greater in the future.
Hello,
can I flash this Rom on a 311? Wifi only?

If it is wanted I could upload a new build. The Problem is, it would be untested, because I am experimenting with something Stock ATM and so you would need to backup and try if it works and then report here. Would some of you be willing to test? If so, PM me and I will send you a link with a current UNTESTED build. You would need to give me feedback, and if it works (as good or better as the last one) I would publish it. Otherwise I will provide one tested by me in two or more weeks, after my Project with the Stock ROM is completed.

Thankyou so much for this rom, this is the best thing that happened to my tablet :laugh: i love it, my tablet feels so much faster and better battery life, no problems so far and everything works :good:
Seems that since yesterday there is an official nightly as well

[Q]Display flickering

Hi all,
Though i'm happy with my z i got a small problem.
The display is flickering constantly, i read in several Forums about this should be an Software issue with Sonys 4.2.2
So i went back to 4.1.2 but i still noticed a flickering on the display, and in any other Rom i tried.
Question is: hardware or software fault?

Wait until the New bugfixes are out it could be a bug within the kernel that Sony have finally found but I'm no expert I've just picked up info on here across multiple devices due to my love for New tech

Alnikkis kernel fixed the flickering for me.
So it should be fixed on new firmware hopefully permanently.

I did this to remove flickering.
1. Reseted the device.
2.Repair Installed the software Via SUS.
Fresh installed the apps after reset and the flickering was gone.
(FYI my device is Stock JB ROM 4.2.2 V .244)

Thanks but i managed to get the flickering away.
It seems like a kernel fault, and should be fixable.
I also contacted sony support and pm'ed mods becoz of this issue, hoping they will finally fix it..

Ahh~! I was really becoming to get annoyed by this and believed it's a software issue rather than hardware faulty, so I wanted to check if anyone else is experiencing this. I'm glad they're going to fix it.

this is hardware issue with the pcb of xperia z and there is no pcb schematics available, so search for the hardware solution, may be it is a small capacitor on board.

[Q] kitkat worth upgrading

First of all i dont care much about 4.4, i prefer overall performance. So my question is, is it worth upgading considering its improvement and bugs?
There are some nice touches, but the phone is just as fast as before.
IMO for a release it seems rather unstable. Tried it and well, I'd wait for the next release.
I wait... As it seems like Sony have not tested things properly

No, it's not worth.
Am not updating.
need root to sort the sd card issue and i cba with the hassle of flashing ftf, downgrading then upgrading all for an update which adds nothing in terms of features and appears to have plenty more bugs
does the z1 still have its SMS app on KitKat 4.4 or have they switched to Google Hangouts?
if so then thats another reason why i wont be updating.
