First of all, don't use the font edit. It's annoying.
Anyways, you are saying you can't install a ROM without first installing existenz? That's almost impossible. You can flash every XSP ROM as long as you have root and CWM and a working ROM.zip

Could it be that the ROMs you tried to flash require an unlocked bootloader or a 4.3 kernel?

Thanks, my eyes just died

How to go back to stock

Hey guys, really new to android.
I unlocked my bootloader and installed the PAC Rom.
Now im wanting to go back to the stock rom.
I got an error using flashtool so i used CWM recovery to flash the stock firmware, but now it will not boot.
I still have the PAC icons when i first turn on the phone for some reason, and then it says xperia and i get to the coloured animation and it just stays on that.
Anyone know why this is or how to fix it? i have tried multiple tutorials but cant get it working.
help!
Repair using SUS or EMMA?
You are still on the cm10 kernel.. Flash doomlord kernel..
Can be found in the original android development..

Here's the link link to the stock global unbranded rom thread!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2223827
Download this ROM and flash it using Flashtool. Hardly takes five minutes flashing and bingo!
P.S. It says it includes kernel too if that's the issue
Can the global unbranded rom be used with C6602 as well?

All stock ROM FTFs will include the kernel, CWM ROM zips don't, so they're no good for returning to stock unless you already have a kernel to go with the zip.

[TUTORIAL][TX,V,T] "How to root and install cwm 4.3 Leaked Version"

Hi Advance Users
here is my tutorial
Requirements:
1.CWM v8 (v9 is too buggy cant install anything) https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23269279319202183
2.UPDATED ROOT :http://download.chainfire.eu/376/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.89.zip
3.Working CWM or any recovery
Flash Leaked ROM
Flash Root
Then Flash CWM v8
Turn off
Flash kernel from the leaked rom zip via fastboot
Reboot!!
Then cheers!!! your phone is rooted with cwm installed
Dont Forget to Give "Thanks"
i see the leaked Rom has no CWM installed.
so how could i flash the ROOT zip ??
im stuck, Jai
Use a kernel with cwm already, such nk or cm based. Then directly flash JB kernel afterwards. But flashing root and cwm before booting the room is more convenient as op instructed. Great.

You don't have to do this, since the ROM's zip flashes the kernel too

Super SU is working fine but since JyROM don't have CWM in it, I just installed CWM again, I installed the v6 of CWM..

[STOCK][UBL] Android 4.3 Long Winded Rooting Guide

Hello guys, i have been playing around with the new offical 4.3 rom, I have found a little way for now to get rooted, take a look below...
***Disclaimer, I am not responsible if you blow up your phone, loose data, or do anything silly, I am merely trying to help, and point people in the right direction***​
Okay it's a long winded approach to get rooted, but i guess it will have to do for the time being... Until a new updated rooting tool is available.
Here we go then , you will need these things:
SuperSU Install zip
Doomkernel v08 kernel.elf file
Stock Sony 4.3 kernel, attached to this post.
UBL (Unlocked Boot Loader!)
A brain and common sense.
Lets go then, first install the stock android 4.3 FTF....
Once this is done disconnect your phone, put it into fastboot mode and install the Doomkernel. Now upon boot, go into recovery, and install the SuperSU zip normally.
Once this is done, power off your phone (Holding down the power and volume up)
Go into Fastboot mode again, and install the provided stock Sony 4.3 Kernel.
Unplug your phone, boot it, and there you go, rooted stock android 4.3.
If you have any questions ask, no question is too stupid, or PM me and i'll help you best I can.
Reserved for more information, FaQ ETC...
I guess its only for unlocked bootloaders, because after flashing custom kernel on locked BL xperia, it won't boot.

No this method is only for Unlocked bootloader.
V7 should work just fine, all we are after is the recovery to flash the SuperSU
Thanks a lot it's working
Never did before on sony and the biggest problem for me was entering in recovery, so just in case, to enter recovery, when LED is pink press {vol up for 2012 models} or {vol down for 2011 models}
(used 1268-6904 Generic Nordic)

HELP ME!
HELP ME!
I tried this method on my Xperia V. I flashed the kernel then accidentally booted into android. Soft bricked. So I flashed back Sony kernel.
Working now but now there is something wrong with the screen.
I'm not sure what's wrong but it looks like the gamma is too high. I'll post a picture.

Flash firmware
<----- Click Thank Its Easy
How to it won't enter Download Mode or Recovery mode...
That guide got little problem , flashing twrp using odin is for gingerbread, in jelly bean use cocore kernel for twrp and i also got same experience with you but i get into download mode and flash frimware http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=29206 again to fix it .Download the file first and try go into download mode anywhere and flash it ,if cannot go to phone repair shop
Why would you follow such a tedious guide to get TWRP, when you can just flash CoCore kernel with twrp? Well now just try to get into download mode and flash stock jb again.
OK guys thx will try CoCore kernal... I am able to get into Download mode sometimes so guess will flash Stock Firmware from sammobile...
After Stock Firmware=>CoCore Kernal=>Custom ROM
Hope this time it goes right...

In the future look for guides here on XDA, not on some third party sites... You have all explained here, just look good and read.
For future - do not flash GB kernel over any other ROM than on STOCK. Do not flash CM kernel over Stock JB, do not flash stock or CoCore kernel over CM based ROMs.

Hi,
Thx for the info..
Well the future one went a bit in air.. Guess I'll have to read more to understand more.. Will do that..
Till then can you tell me whether Flashing EHNDROIX V on Stock Firmware with Cocore Kernel will be good?

Can you help me with CWM recovery if there's any for this phone, I found a temporary one but don't know it would be helpful or no... I've used CWM earlier on a phone...
CoCore if is hassle free then will go with that.. Coz another run dunno how it would turn out to be... :cyclops:

I have installed the ehndroix v ROM... They have Superuser built in, so no need for SuperSU.. Thats good..
Now when I use Titanium BackUp, it says the su binary is outdated.. So where to get the new su binary from? how to confirm what version it is and how to update? I know Superuser is not into this, its just a management tool.. So how do I get about it?
Thx in advance

If TB is working then no need to update it...
Ok Thx.. Yes it seems to work.. Like it verified the backups and restored it too.. atleast it started the installer and I did install..
BTW seems all the features I use are working n this Firmware.. However is there a better option than Nova Launcher, I tried GoLauncher but didn't like it much compared to Nova....
Also I found FM Radio missing in this firmware and also the default Music app.. I installed default Music one from F-Droid and also one from PlayStore but where do I get a tuned in Radio? All are internet based... Spirit FM is very expensive... Can you help me to find the stock one for this...
Thx in Advance..
One Learning, since I'm new to Android (correct me if wrong), Dalvik cache can be cleared at will if you want to force android to rebuilt the apps cache for faster loading.. Right?

There is no other FM radio for CM based ROMs. Only Spirit FB, and there is free version too. Look on XDA for developers thread.
You can clear Dalvik cache, and it will rebuild after reboot. But there is cache already, so I think it will not speed up loading more.
Ok so guess, won't be doing the wipe frequently...
Will search xda for Spirit Free...
Last question:
Which launcher do you suggest?
Thx..

If you're on stock ROM, I think it will give you status 7 error

You might also try my NeoWave rom, as it looks and feels like a Sony stock rom.
Walkman is included, Sony Camera won't work on AOSP, however.
