Smart Xperia™ ROM JB/ ICS is a Xperia Jelly Bean ( 4.2.1 ) style custom ROM for all 2011 Xperia HDPI devices. It's based on stock ICS 4.0.4 - 4.1.B.0.587. This ROM is fast, stable, smooth ever and integrated Xperia Jelly Bean lockscreen and small apps into main ROM. I recommended 100 % no bootloop issue after you performed factory reset. Do you know what's features on this ROM ?. I have included some Jelly Bean features such like Google Now, Adreno JB drivers that made it smoother as silk and Easter Eggs. So, It has more features from Sony such as Walkman, Album and Movies that I included on this ROM also I've tried to implement some apps from Xperia T Jelly Bean and still included some apps from Xperia S/T and V, So, another one is Xperia Z style framework and themes that I integrated this to make looks like Xperia Z or Xperia Jelly Bean. Do you want to know this performance ? It's tweaked, better battery life, perfect multitasking and RAM management is raised. This ROM is guaranteed for gaming. Wow !!. If you install it, I'll give you some options in AROMA. choose stuffs that you want or accorded from your devices. Let's INSTALL !!! YOU'LL TASTE SUCH AS XPERIA Z or IF YOU WANT TO UPDATE INTO JELLY BEAN OFFICIALY FROM 2011 XPERIA LINE UP !!!, GOOD LUCK !!!

Why did some Xperia devices like normal Arc and normal Neo must be flashed by Arc S and Neo V ftf before installing this ROM ?
- Because, This ROM has a used memory of system partition is 360 MB or 370 MB. So, you should flash arc S ftf into normal arc if you use normal arc and you should flash neo V into normal neo if you use normal neo. In case. It will give you 420 MB of data memory and 419 MB of system memory for both.
What would I do, If I got a battery drain or lag ?
- Change kernel that I recommended in above
I want to use Location Based Wi-Fi, Where is a Location Based Wi-Fi ?
- In Settings > Wireless and Networks > More > Location Based Wi-Fi
If you want to change theme
- Go to Settings > Display > Theme
If you want to activate Xloud and Clear Phase when using Walkman
- Don't activate Xloud in Sound Enhancement. But, in Settings > Sounds

Fix some apps issues
- Did you got some issues from some apps ?. Open root explorer, navigate into system > app. Look some apps/apks that it caused issues as parse problem if you open. Resolve ? Open my zip, extract some apps. after this, copy into system > app and set permission. finally reboot. It works completely.

Does not work locked bootloaeders:??????

I updated there is not suitable for locked bootloader only unlocked bootloader
Sent from my LT15i using xda premium

So I uploaded via rapidshare but it didn't fast. I had a good idea I was tried to upload via mediafire. I thought if you got bootloop again, I would make a new tutorial twice and you just which prefer do first or second. But I'm thinking again
Sent from my LT15i using xda premium

You must waiting for that because it takes 5-8 minutes. I have this Rom for LT18i and I split this Rom via hjsplit example :
for LT15i : two parts
for LT18i : two parts
Check my link if these process finish later
Sent from my LT15i using xda premium

been trying this with different ftf's and different kernels using both methods for the past 5 hours now and m getting boot loops!!......my tempers is rising rappidly!....how could this be???

You shouldn't do a factory reset. Restore first and flash it without kernel and then go into CWM. In CWM you don't factory reset only wipe dalvik and cache data. and others I'll think again

As it turns out,that mod was meant for JB and im on .230 KK...Whoops
Could anyone with a Sony Stock .230 KITKAT ROM pull the following files from your phone and upload them somewhere for me.please please please(I'd just flash a new rom , but the sony KitKat ftf file is like 1GB and it'd take about a 3-4days for me to download it,stupid 238kbps 2G EDGE internet)
The Following are the files i need(from /system):
/app/SemcCameraUI.apk
/bin/MPQStrMgrTest
/bin/MPQunittest

/lib/libcamera_fast_af.so
/lib/libcamera_metadata.so
/lib/libimagebank.so
/lib/libmpo.so
/lib/libnativebytearray.so

If anyone could please provide those files,i can adb push them back into the phone and it should work!!(though a flashable zip would be even better!)
This should be a lesson for everyone...always make a damn backup.That nandroid can save your life(phone)!

Does anyone tried this on Tablet Z3 LTE already?

Not working
When i tried installing it don't install even though the bat file says it's successfully installed. i used an sgp621 pre-rooted rom created with PRF creator. Now I flashed it and I lost recovery. Any idea how would this work on stock kernel with root permissions?

What is the FW number of the ROM you tried to install it on?
Please try again and hand me the output of the entire CMD screen.

it's okay now

I tried recreating the PRF (i mistakenly put the installer zip instead of flashable zip). However, i would just like to report that if i use the Windows installer zip, it just won't work though i have proper root and on stock kernel/ROM. SGP621_23.0.1.A.0.167 is the firmware. Now i made it worked by creating a flashable rom with your dual recovery on it.

Problem solved - I needed to update to the advanced kernel first.

There is a problem with the TWRP recovery - it is displaying in landscape mode while the device is booting in portrait one. So it doesn't fit the screen and it is not really functional so. Fix it please if possible. Thanks.
P.S. replaced with the file from Z3 phone and it works, but not in fullscreen.

Hi, I asked this already in the q&a but I'm not sure if anyone is keeping an eye on that section so please forgive me for asking in the main thread again:
Can anybody tell me if this recovery will work with cm12?
Thanks.

No.

@[NUT]
thanks a lot for your answer.
Is there any chance you could post the isolated TWRP img file?
This would allow me to install it in FOTA partition.
The cm recovery is such crap ...

Actually, you can simply download and unpack the cpio file yourself. Beware: It is a cpio image and not a disk image.

@[NUT]
thanks again for answering so fast.
I just googled a little bit about how to converrt a cpio archive to a .img file, but that's definitely way over my head (if it's possible at all).
Running a windows machine doesn't seem to help, either.
So thank you very much for your advice, but before i f*** up everything I'll stay with crap cm recovery
regards, der_bert

Dear NUT,
pls take a look on postNr.10.I have the same problem,can you please fix it?
Thank you!!!

I am stock locked bootloader , which 1 should i choose in CMD??
1,2,3,4

Is it possible to use this with a locked bootloader AND restored DRM keys? I tried to restore DRM keys with advanced stock kernel... which isnt a kernel (im sure or pretty sure...) but TWRP recovery. And i ended up bricking my tablet. I ended up restoring to stock no drm keys no root yet. I couldnt use Xposed with the current methods of unlock, relock bootloader (using advanced kernel) because I couldnt access recovery. In short im asking is it possible to use this with DRM keys and Xposed under a locked botloader?

Any kind of kernel with recovery or a FOTA kernel replacement is actually a custom kernel solution. You CAN NOT restore DRM/TA when you're running a community kernel or even have something else flashed to the FOTA partition.
I am pretty sure you heard the bell ring, but don't know what rang it...
Restore TA (and with that DRM): flash sony stock kernel and restore the stock FOTA kernel, otherwise your device won't boot and be in a 'soft brick' state.

Where should one unpack it to make TWRP work? I really wish we could have it on CM12, since default CM recovery can't even automatically apply updates. Not even talking about working with exFAT :/

Great work my friend...

nice work for this device!

Great work man!
Hope it will get updated like the 5.0.2 aroma port with that awesome zombie kernel, sound mods like viper4android, and much more cool stuff!

Thanks for the great work. Everything seems to work except Bluetooth. The device switches on Bluetooth but does not discover any nearby devices. This problem also occurs in Safe Mode. Can you think of a reason why this might be?
Also, a minor issue: the device's model number is given as C6603....

- In normal mode, bluetooth connected with another devices. I think in safe mode not working for security
- If you dont like your device name is C6603, rename it to C5503:
open build.prop in system/ and edit all string "C66" by "C55" and "Xperia Z" by " Xperia ZR"

BT issues
I performed a factory reset and the very first thing I tried after that is bluetooth. No luck - still not working. It switches on, scans for devices but doesn't find any.
Before I decided on the factory reset, it detected my laptop for a few seconds when I rebooted the laptop, but then lost it again. It never detected my bluetooth headsets. Googling around, it seems that 5.1.1 is causing BT trouble on various devices. Also, by the way, Safe Mode does not disable BT. Trying in safe mode is a regular trouble shooting procedure for BT issues.
I don't care about the device name, just thought I should mention it.
A bigger problem is the absence of the Xperia diagnostic tool that usually is accessible from Settings/About Phone. It's not there. I downloaded the "light" version from the Playstore but this crashes every time I start it up.

Whoah, wait a moment! I just switched one of my headsets to pairing mode, then switched the BT on the phone off and on and off and on like crazy, then waited (with BT on) and suddenly it detected the headset and paired. Weird. ADDITIONAL COMMENT NEXT DAY: no further BT issues. I have been able to pair another headset and a bunch of Trackr Bravo trackers. So I can confirm that all major functions on this phone work and the ROM is very nice indeed.
I'll report further if I find out anything else.

Thanks.
uncomment and Rajeev, thanks very much for making this available for the ZR. This is so nice. I came from a 4.2.2 on a DoCoMo branded Xperia A. The improvements in 5.1.1 are enormous. This phone's life expectancy just increased by at least a year.
Great job!!

Here is the correct link for recovery : http://nut.xperia-files.com/?ql=49b0b878cd1f3c76147e906751160a2cf6da51d3

tested and working well on unlocked bootloader too..

Is it possible to implement double tap to wake feature in the stock kernel?
I couldn't find this feature in any roms available for our XZR.
