Update 1: Added TX stock kernel with recovery and root.
These are just latest stock JB kernels for T and XT packed with TWRP or CWM.
For Xperia T (LT30P) The kernel is from Latest firmware Xperia T 9.1.A.1.140 Generic Europe.
For Xperia TX (LT29i) the Kernel is from firmware TX 9.1.B.0.411).
Tested on stock based JB roms and work smoothly.
Credits and thanks:
- Championswimmer for his great Kernel Kitchen
- TWRP team and CWM team for their great recovery
- Doomlord for some of the files from his kernel
- Lilstevie for some of the files from his kernel
- Supersonic335 for the new JB stock firmware where I got kernel from.
- Gregbradley for the rootpackage
- Many others who I have learned a lot from!
Download:
TWRP versions:
T(LT30p)-with TWRP: http://d-h.st/00E
TX(LT29i)-with TWRP: http://d-h.st/xeD
CWM versions:
T(LT30p)-with CWM: http://d-h.st/QqZ
TX(LT29i)-with CWM: http://d-h.st/2iD
How to flash:
- Flash as any other zip using CWM or TWRP.
- Or you can extract the kernel.elf file (from the zip) and flash using fastboot.
How to get into recovery: when seeing pink led press Vol + or Vol - (either will work)!
How to change twrp and cwm?: you have to flash the file with the other recovery.
How to get full root: You can go to G-Play to install Superuser, SU binary and Busybox; Or it is easier to flash this root package by Gregbradley in recovery found in this Link: http://www.mediafire.com/?oo1e67ontouzron, then you will have full root.
I made it for my self as an exercise for fun, but guess it could be useful for some people. Don't forget to press thank if you find it useful. Cheers!

This is a test-stock TX kernel-repacked with TWRP 2.5.0.0.
The stock kernel was extracted from the stock JB 4.11 rom for TX, repacked with TWRP. The stock rom was from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2217699
Will need some advanced user to test it. I only have XT so cannot test it.
Flash the kernel.elf file via fastboot:
http://d-h.st/PFX
Before flash make sure you know how to get back if kernel does not work.
Let me know how it goes.
Thanx for this. I will try it when i get home today.
is this work on TX?
test on TX kernel
Boots up with FXP logo, twrp wotks ok but it shows version 2.4.1.0, LED stays on while in recovery, no big deal,
also if restored some of the blot apps back but they can be unistalled.
backup performed in 250 seconds.
Thank you

Btw, it seems the older version of twrp has a problem to back up and restore (incomplete restore) so I would recommend to discard the back up you made with twrp 2,4.40 and make a new back up with 2.5.0.0. Cheers,

not only that but it also has an issue with mounting system and data every now and the.
b.t.w you can still install cwm V6 recovery too as a secon recovery

TWRP 2.5.0.0 seems to have fixed all of these.
I will try to do it with CWM 6.03 later on. Cheers.
cwm would be a lot better if possible

I have tried your TWRP 2.5.0.0 stock kernel on my Xperia TX (LT29). with 9.1.B.0.411 FW. Everything works perfect. No bugs.
I'm waiting for a combination TWRP + CWM, may be if possible with root added!!!
Thanks, thanks, thanks a lot for your work!

I believe that root is already there. You can try to install superuser from Gplay and use some applications that requires root. Let me know if it is working. Cheers!

yes and No. CWM works on the ZR so it should work on the A as well (I just installed it). Custom ROMs won't although I'll try and find out if I can tweak something and install it.
Download this file :http://d-h.st/1BC [Props to @krabappel2548], unzip and run the install.bat file. Should get CWM working on your system

I´ve updated my phone to the latest A Firmware(10.1.1.D.2.31) and lost root, as soon as DooMLord add support to it on the Root Toolkit i´ll root again and give it a try. I´ll let you know.

I have one question, you work Sound Photo and one more thing you have problem google.proces pops up an error that the service is stopped
Can I simply flash this rom with Cwm over PureXZ Ultra v3 or do I have to flash a kernel with flashtool afterwards? Locked bootloader here.

Just flash the ROM after wiping data, cache, dalvik cache..
#Borias yes you can flash it, just make a clean install,wipe everything through recovery and follow these steps... 1-flash the rom 2- flash directly on cwm any 283 kernel of your choice (I prefer Hodor kernel) 3- Reboot system and let it settle.. 4- Reboot into recovery and flash superuser fix 5- Reboot system and enjoy it.

Yes you can. You don't need to flash stock kernel because PureXZ ultra has a kernel image inside the zip. So no special steps are needed.
Edit: sorry I didn't saw the above replies...

Use CWM or Philz Touch to flash the ROM.. And if u r coming from 4.3/4.4.2 or any other CM/AOSP based ROMs, flash the 4.4.4 stripped kernel from zippy's thread.. See instructions for that..
I installed XZDual recovery and it rebooted me to Teamwin recovery, is that wrong? I was on rooted 4.4.4

Yes, u did nothing wrong.. Just select reboot and press volume up when it vibrates during Sony logo occurance.. And u will get Philz touch.. Flash the ROM and make sure u wipe the data,cache and dalvik cache before installing the ROM..

saw your post that you said you will be rebasing the rom.
will you be able to include:
- x-reality/super vivid options like how it was on your current v3?
- and whatever you're doing that makes the camera start up faster and lockscreen glitter nicer!
also i noticed that sometimes while trying to unlock my screen i have a black wallpaper for a few seconds instead.
not sure if thats a bug, but its nothing major as it doesnt always happen.
(note: it happens on the default wallpaper as well)
thank you!

It's the problem of your firmware try to change it and flash again worked for me
Sent from my Xperia TX using XDA Forums
If it's my CM12.1 that you're trying to install, make sure you fastboot flash the included boot.img before using to flash the ROM.
This should prevent errors like the one you mentioned.
