Get Sony Update Service: sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/update-service/
Get Xperia Flashtool: flashtool.net
01) Download and install latest Flashtool
02) Download Sony Update Service (SUS) and reinstall firmware of your phone (backup your data first)
Follow the steps in SUS
03) After that, go to SUS installation folder and search for folder db/some Number/blob_fs, there you find some files, which names start "FILE_"
04) Paste the "FILE_" files, which names start FILE, from blob_fs folder to folder "Firmware" included in the XPERIA Flashtool
05) Open the Flashtool, click on Tools->Bundles->FILESET Decrypt and put all "FILE_" files from blob_fs folder to the right columm
06) Click ok and after approx. one minute a pop up Window will appear via Flashtool
07) Fill in a boxes in the top of the screen, fill in what you want, it is just for you (A double click is needed on the first one)
08) Mark all files and transfer them to the right column
09) Now click ok and Flashtool will create backup of your original firmware customization, that you can anytime flash to your phone
10) finally go to the Flashtools Firmware folder and delete all unneeded files (.sin, .ta ect.)
Hope this helps

[GT-I9001]Need help! can't boot any ported ROM by me!!

Hello guys,
I tried to port different ROMs to my beloved s plus but none of them booted.
I can install them successfully but when I reboot system it stuck at the boot animation and then doesn't boot.....
What's the problem.
Here is the procedure I'm using to port ROM:
Copy any other file or folder present in the root of the ROM except system,META-INF, and boot.img from port to base
Delete :
Apps
Framework
Fonts
Media
Priv-app folders from base ROM and then copy:
Apps
Framework
Fonts
Media
Priv-apps from port to base ROM.
I go to ../Base ROM/system/etc/permissions/ and delete all files except handled_******** and platform then copy all other files except handled_******** and platform from ../Port ROM/system/etc/permissions to base's permissions folder.
I go to /Base ROM/system/etc/init.d and delete all files except 00banner or 99banner don't know for sure the name of the banner file.
Change the name of the ROM in build.prop with notepad++.
Make archive of the ROM (.zip)
Copy the ROM in the internal storage of s plus.
And then flash it on to my s plus.
I tried to port 4.4.4 and 4.4.2 ROMs from s2 and s4 but without success
I'm using TWRP 2.7.1.0 .
Is there anything I'm forgetting to do?
Please help!!!
