[STOCK][Jelly Bean 9.1.A.1.141][T]Rooted & Deodexed[10/06/13]

This is just a simple ROM I built with dsixda's Android Kitchen. Saw some people requesting a clean, rooted, stock ROM so I started a poll to gauge interest and it was enough for me have a crack at it. It's not really development but I figured this was the best place to drop it.
It's based on the LT30P_9.1.A.1.141_PL.ftf posted by @Supersonic335. I only rooted and deodexed it.
All the usual blah blah about bricking your device applies. It works fine on my phone so it should work on yours.
Features
* STOCK
* ROOT (Chainfire SuperSU 1.25 & BusyBox 1.21.0)
* DEODEXED
Basic flashing instructions
1. Root with Bin4ry's method(*) Make sure to use v21 or later!
2. install CWM for locked bootloaders.(*)
3. Go to recovery and wipe
4. Flash ROM.
5. Flash kernel (**)
6. Flash CWM & Reboot fix (**)
7. Reboot.
8. Enjoy
(*) skip these steps if you already have CWM recovery or unlocked bootlader.
(**)Not for unlocked bootlooader

You lose CWM after the flash because it's not in the kernel image as it is in a custom kernel.
The reboot fix has to do with the ric file which causes reboots when trying to access /system as r/w iirc.
I'm going to be testing a build now which has CWM and the reboot fix integrated and also a different fix for the "missing" wlan driver.

OK, all the sequence again from the beginning.
1. I flash stock 303 rom
2. Rooting it, installing CWM via usb debugging mode.
3. Entering recovery, flashing rom (recovery after flashing rom is still exists, isn`t it?)
4. Then i flash what ? CWM or reboot fix ? I suppose fix, because CWM will be still availiuble!?
So, what for to flash CWM form CWM? If i will lose CWM i still can flash new CWM from installed new .195 rom via debugging mode, isn`t it ? Or i don`t get something at all ? ((

You need to flash both CWM and reboot fix. After reboot CWM will be gone. It is actually in a ramdisk while in recovery. The recovery.tar which holds it is in /system/bin and is flashed over on update. That's why you need to flash it again. You should be able to install it again from. 195 but it's just easier to do it while you're already in recovery. It doesn't matter which of the two you flash first.

All clear, thank you!
Will try to do it today.

Just flashed the rom, CWM and fix, everything passed just great, everything works..., what can i say, i`m happy! Thank you so much for your work.
But one thing, you didn`t make changes in kernel ? It`s strange, because the kernel in this .195 f/w is dated by jule, however this kernel was in old .303 f/w and in the new .195 f/w there must be new kernel dated by september, what do you say ? And i see changed file sysmon.cfg respondable for CPU frequency control and LCD brightness. In the old f/w i was changing values by myself as i want LCD brightness, and i see this file has an another values than in old .303 f/w. Does it you made changed or this was in stock ?

You should add to instruction, that after all need to flash via Flashtool stock kernel from .195 f/w from here
http://www.mediafire.com/?2b75t7dpk72z12h
Otherwise there will be bootloop after switching on extended battery mode. I flashed, and everithing is OK

Hi.
If I am on other custom Rom with LB, do you thing that I will be flash directly your Rom step by step, without 1step/flash. 303 stock Rom/, without problem?
Sent from my LT30p using xda premium

If you are already on a custom .195 and have working cwm recovery you can flash it directly. I do advise to wipe, you can make a backup up your apps with Titanium backup.

Now that 7.0.A.3.223 is out, ¿any chance of getting an updated version of your rom?.
I like deodexed stock ones with as little modifications as possible, so I can customize them to my likes.
And so far yours has been great (except I switched SuperUser for SuperSU).

I've been using Siyah kernel with rom 3.195 and I'm very satisfied with it.
(There's a report that version 0.2 doesn't work with latest rom (3.223), but I know a user in another forum who says it is working fine for him, so who knows. Either way I'm waiting to see if Gokhanmoral releases kernel 0.3 before I update to rom 3.223).

¿Deodexed?
I've tried to customize the status bar icons with Rom Toolbox, but it complains that this rom is not deodexed (and in fact changing the icons does not work).
But this rom is supposed to be deodexed so, ¿does anybody know why this happens?.

Yes, it's deodexed, except for playstationcertified but that shouldn't matter. I'm not familiar with Rom Toolbox so I can't help you there.

[Q] a little help with flashing

Morning all, i am having a problem flashing any ROM via CWM. I have obtained root and my bootloader is unlocked (both the hidden menu and whilst in s/w download mode confirm this) also i have cwm recovery running with unsecure boot img, the problem is when i flash anything (from my external sd) all i get is bootloops! Is it possible i have missed something?
Thanks for your time guys!

1. make a backup (on external SD)
2. wipe data/factory reset
3. wipe cache
4. advanced >> wipe dalvik cache
5. flash ROM

What about your CWM version? The latest is 6.0.3.1. Incorrect version results in disasters
Sent from my Optimusx4 using Tapatalk 2

@tomkasz forgot to say i do a complete data wipe before flashing! Didn't clear my dalvik before (thanks for pointing that out mate!) @hernest my current version is 6.0.2.8, so im guessing i need to update my recovery? If so can i just use the clockworkMod app from google play and do it that way?
Am i right in thinking that because im on v20a at the moment that i need to flash a JB ROM? Or can i flash an ICS without having to downgrade via KDZ first?
Thanks for your help guys!
Sent from my LG-P880 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

In order to flash ICS you have to use LG Flash Tool. There is a thread on xda showing how to do it step by step.

Your Recovery version is the culprit, then. Just install ROM Manager via Play Store and update your recovery to the latest version. Your life will be much easier in terms of flashing ROM.
To roll back to stock ICS from JB is quite a task and can't be done by simply flashing ICS based ROM. There's a thread on general section dedicated to this topic, you might want to do some research before doing so. Like the previous post said, there are no fully compatible ICS based custom ROM. Anyway, I think this device is much better in JB. Why would you revert back?

Sorry in advance but need advice

First, sorry if this has been covered already but ive done my searching around and I'm still confused.
Im looking to flash a custom ROM. I'm already rooted and running dual recovery. I'm on the T-Mobile XZ C6606. Looking at the development sections, and this phone seems more complicated when it comes to flashing than others. Can someone point me to the right direction.
All I want to do is flash a custom stock based ROM with good battery. I see Roms that say u need to flash old firmware first using flashtool but those firmwares are for other models.
I'm also debating on unlocking the bootloader but it says I would lose the bravia Engine, would a custom ROM bring it back?

If you want to flash any custom ROM that is NOT based on stock ROM, such as CM/AOSP, you need an unlocked bootloader. I suggest that, if you want to unlock your bootloader, you first backup your DRM keys.
All this info is found in this forum. I'm still getting familiar with it myself, as I haven't even purchased my XZ yet.

First, you can't unlock the bootloader of your device, so forget about that idea. All T Mobile Z are unlockable.
Second, now that you have recovery installed, it is just a matter of downloading the zip file containing the rom you want and flash it. Afaik, all C6603 roms are compatible with yoyr device, but itll be good if you ask before on the thread of the rom you want to try.

ok, because im not new to flashing but on the rom pages, the installing instructions are making it seem more complicated than building a time machine. For example here one:
------BACKUP any critical data to microSD
Copy this rom zip package to microSD
Flash stock Sony's firmware (FTF) 10.1.A.434 (for android 4.1.2) or 10.3.A.0.423 (for android 4.2.2) using flashtools
Root using any available method
Install any available recovery (TWRP recommended)
Reboot in recovery, do factory reset & install rom until finish
Turn off device. (Hold power button + vol up until vibrates 3 times)
Flash latest Sony's firmware (FTF) matching current latest monxDIFIED base rom using flashtools. Uncheck all WIPE options and exclude all EXCEPT KERNEL & BASEBAND to get latest matched kernel & baseband.
Turn on phone. Done.-------
But, ur saying i just need to flash a rom like normal right?
---Wipe data, Flash custom rom and reboot?
Also, in the dual recovery page, it stated that i need to flash the LockedDualRecovery file after flashing rom, is this still relevant?

Those install instructions are ancient. Back then, you had to go to back to that exploitable firmware to root and install recovery. Skip those steps, you have recovery already installed.

[Q] What am i missing?

Hi Folks,
Well i have run into two issues following this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2478019
I am using the Locked Bootloader instruction's and am up to
"Reboot in Touch CWM recovery (Camera button when the phone reboot), Wipe Data, Cache and Dalvik Cache."
The bit causing me a senior moment is this "Unmount System, Flash the rom AND SuperUser fix"
Which ROM? From where? and do i use flashtool? Volume down/plug into pc? Then after doing that it also states to flash "12.1.A.0.266 kernel only" where do i download the kernel only?
I have downloaded
Xperia_SP_eXistenZ_Ultra_2.0.0.zip - 848,60MB - From thread linked above
C5303_12.1.A.0.266_Central European 1 CE1.ftf - 783,787KB - From this site under Xperia SP General if i recall
kernel.266.ftf - 7,616KB - From this site can't remember which thread off hand
Thanks for any pointers to where this old codger is going wrong, cheers.

On phone so can't go into too much detail. But ftf files can only be flashed using flash tools and custom roms in the zip format are flashed using cwm or other recoveries. So the room in your case is existenz.
The kernel has to be flashed using flash tools seems like you have already got it. The reason it's so complex is because as yet there is no way to root the 266 firmware, so you have to root an old firmware, install a recovery, install the rom and then install the new kernel so the ROM works.

Thank you for the reply,
I might just have to have a stab at it tomorrow as phone is rooted with cwm as instructions.
so i need to read up on installing rom from cwm, if i am reading it right i do the Wipe Data, Cache and Dalvik Cache from cwm touch then unmount system and with Xperia_SP_eXistenZ_Ultra_2.0.0.zip on external sd card i use cwm again to flash from zip then use flashtool to flash the kernel.266.ftf and job a good,un.

I Finally took the plunge after getting fed up waiting for UK-O2-Pay Monthly to release and i have to say it was well worth it. Pretty dam straight forward and now updated to eXistenZ Ultra 2.1.5 on a LB.
So much snappier, everything feels smoother/faster and some nice touches added.
Just posted here for my future reference that i actually did do it.

Why would you want to remove recovery? There is nothing you'll gain with that...
But you can flash a kernel that has no recovery added to your device. Make sure you use one of the 4.3 kernels. Not sure if there are any without recovery and with root though...

I don't know why you're trying to remove the recovery, it makes no difference at all. If you had searched first in the Philz Recovery thread, you would have run into this, which tells you how to remove it.
But then again, if you flashed stock FTF ROM, then you have stock kernel. Just uncheck all of the "wipe" check boxes, and exclude all except the "kernel", and you'll get the stock kernel. Or you can extract the kernel.sin itself with 7zip or probably WinRar from the FTF, and flash that in fastboot mode.
As a recommendation, flashing a ROM without wiping /data and/or /system is, IMO, a bad idea. You can always backup/restore your data with apps like Titanium Backup.
