To get wifi working paste these lines into updater.script before flashing rom. Thanx Tim "TiMiN8R". I poked inside your updater script to make this work.
symlink("/system/lib/modules/prima/prima_wlan.ko", "/system/lib/modules/wlan.ko");
symlink("/data/etc/wlan_macaddr0", "/system/etc/firmware/wlan/macaddr0");
symlink("/data/etc/wlan_macaddr1", "/system/etc/firmware/wlan/macaddr1");
symlink("/data/etc/wlan_macaddr2", "/system/etc/firmware/wlan/macaddr2");
symlink("/data/etc/wlan_macaddr3", "/system/etc/firmware/wlan/macaddr3");

Yeah, I think I could do it on stock jb tx
But I just ask if I can flash it on stock ICS TX via CWM and later flash the Kernel of JB?

Go ahead. Feel free to do it. On my free time I have been trying to work on patch to convert t to tx roms

Support for 2.245

Hi.
I have got my so rooted and unlocked and have wanted to put a custom ROM on.
But every single one says just support for 2.254 firmware not my 2.245 firmware.
Will it still work or would it brick

It not safe to cross flash it will probably bootloop..i would suggest u to flash 2.254..and get it rooted and custom recovery installed.
Happy flashing
Sent from my C5302 using xda app-developers app

Is that possible as 2.245 is my only available software to update too
Sent from my C5303 using xda app-developers app

2.245
Dear Freind
Roms like pureness 1 and Honamiutreized are strictly firmware specific that is why, i think those developers specifically state do not flash this over other firmware variants that will cause problems and this is because those developers have heavily modded the latest firmware to add more tweaks to give advanced user experience hence that ROM may not be compatible on older firmwares.
But probably you can find Custom Roms (Like Cleaned and Tweaked Rom, JBXSP Rom, Project AOSP Rom) based on 2.245, just go to respective threads and check, you will find that the most of the ROMs' version 2 or 3 should be based on 2.245 firmware.
Try and enjoy customs roms. :laugh:
No if you check this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2311964 you can find many FTF for 2.254 which can be flashed using Flashtool and have latest firmware and flash latest ROMs based on 2.254 without any problem.

Hey buddy,
Don't cross flash .254 FW over .245 FW.
Just use flashtool to flash the .254 FW. It is easy, and there are many guides to do it. Once you know how to use flashtool, your phone also automatically becomes unbrickable as you know how to flash back the stock FW even if you somehow softbricked your phone.
Also, don't post questions in the development section. This is for ROMs and Kernels and stuff, there's no place for questions here. Go to the Q&A section instead next time.
Happy flashing (ROMs and kernels, not anything else )

Thats all? Then i can receive the updates form Sony again an can i use Sony pc companion?
What do i with the kernel?

Stock firmware will flash stock kernel.
If you have to backup you can also lock bootloader.
And yes, after that you can install anything from PCC

I have a question related to this topic.
I had Doomlord`s custom kernel v21 with root and unlocked bootloader.
Im trying to revert back to stock rom and kernel via flashtool and generic nordic rom.
Flashing goes alright but after flashing when i try update my phone either OTA or trough pc companion they both failed.
pc companion says that i have modified sony and i guess it same with OTA update.
Should i do something also, because i thought flashing with stock rom should revert all but bootoader back to original.
Thanks in advance.

You cannot use OTA or Pccompanion with an unlocked bootloader,
You should flash the latest version FTF using flashtool

Kernel only is not really needed. If you have the .292 FTF file, you can flash only the kernel using that.
Start the process as usual and on the right side you see "wipe data" and son on. uncheck all those.
and then below that there is option for "exclude", In this section, check everything that you dont want to flash.
only kernel should be unchecked. And then you can flash the kernel.

download from http://d-h.st/6pP. Flash using flashtool then flash the supersu fix from CWM otherwise you may lose root.
You will see LTE option in network mode menu but ignore it as its kernel from C5503 LTE model

When you say this, I assume you are LB and want stock framework.
With that in mind, CM based ROM are out of the question (OMG, 80% of ROMs phased out!)
With stock-based ones, the best battery life actually comes from MIUI, but
1. It offers a non-stock user expeience
2. It is on 4.2.2
The only ROM that is both active (not outdated if you wonder) can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-zr/development/rom-ultimate-purexzr-ultra-v3-t2894718
Good luck:good:

We generally do not to "Best of" threads. As mentioned above you will need to try the roms and see what works best for you... Closed and moved to it's proper place in Q and A.
