[Q] Xperia TL Roms?

I have an Xperia TL with a locked bootloader. Can I install roms on this phone? I'd like to get the Xperia T version of Cyanogenmod, but I'm not sure if I can do anything with this phone.
Edit: It's the LT30at
Thanks for any help.

Please read the OP of all CM rom threads
Bootloader needs to be unlocked.
But you can install stock based roms.
Just look in the dev section and read up on the roms.

There is no ROMs for the Xperia TL so you would have to use xperia T Roms. Flash xperia t firmware but don't flash the xperia t baseband. Find a guide on how to use flash tool
Sent using grammatical error Xperia TL

So i followed the sony instructions for unlocking the bootloader and found that mine cannot be unlocked. Is there any way around this or am I stuck?

Yawn,
Answered so many times I don't think I can bother any more....

You are stuck. You can only flash stock-based ROMs. There are several in the Development section. I am currently using the Hybrid (Stock/CM10) ROM.

You're stuck. Your bootloader is probably unable to be unlocked. You can only go for stock-based roms. Roms like CyanogenMod or AOKP needs an unlocked bootloader.

To be clear
OK jus to be completely clear . i can use stock based roms on the TL T30at, because my bootloader is locked, and i can use any stock base rom from xperia T jus dont flash the baseband in flashtools correct ?

Yes, you can use stock (XPERIA T) FTF's - just skip the baseband portion before you being flashing so you keep your AT&T baseband.
Then root with whatever method is needed
Then install CWM recovery
Then yes - you can flash stock-based (XPERIA T!) roms. You can usually tell the rom is stock/Locked Bootloader/LBL-friendly in the title of the thread, or in the first few posts of the thread. Also, I don't know how important this is - but also look to see what stock kernel the rom is based on (LT30p 141? 145? 489?). Stock kernel zips can be flashed via CWM recovery (I know that my Bell LT30a works fine with LT30p kernels, but I wonder if the AT&T LT30at will also be fine with it?). My favourite ROMS have been XperimenT and T-Hybrid so far... Good luck
And always keep your stock FTF handy! Because if any flashing you do doesn't work, you can always quickly fall back on a fresh whole FTF flash that is appropriate for your phone. Then the fun starts all over

Kernel
I did flash the kernel 145 from the T idk what really went wrong but my phone stuck on the sony logo
also i use XperimenT rom and flash it using CWM it install in about 7 secs which doesnt seems right . any suggestions ?

Problem solved

after trying diffrent method and days of trouble shooting with my friend
LaZiODROID there is a solution, using cwm(v9) would not format your system and data files thats the reason why the rom hangs at the sony logo because no system files were installed if u check the log, using cwm(v8) for the T,TL is the most stable and will install the rom and kernel with ease. Remeber to always wipe/factory reset then format system and in advance settings wipe dalvik before u install any rom.

[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}

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.

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?

If there is no kernel for Vanir with TWRP embedded, you can't use it. Custom recovery is embedded in same partition as kernel, so it can't be installed separately.

Exacly, TWRP will only embedded come with a kernel. I am not sure what kernel is compatible with Vanir AOSP, that has TWRP. You might look for ROM that has kernel with TWRP, and flash it with Universal Kernel Flasher. And be prepared to recover phone if you end up with a bootloop (flash same rom again if you can access recovery, or flash stock firmware).

You do not need to change it to find it, it is written in its post. I think that Omni has TWRP, and maybe Carbon. Ofcourse it needs to be 4.4 based. Look in Original Development and in Development section of our device part of this forum.

How did you flashed ? As kernel or as recovery ?
If as kernel you will have this problem . But as recovery it will work successfully

Sorry, I misspoke xD
I flashed it as a recovery btw.
But, by "it works Successfully", what did you mean ? You can access on the recovery or you can boot on CM13 ?
Indeed, my device power off not after the flash of the kernel and the recovery, but AFTER the flash of the CM13 + GApps.
So, if by "success" you meant that you can boot totally on CM13, which ROM and which kernel did you flashed ?
But if it concerned the recovery only, this is good, I have the same result than you x)

And Gapps you can find it in the first page of the above thread

Okay, I don't understand why, but for booting on CM, I had to reflash the kernel !
Without it, my device power off one second after the Sony logo
It finally works, thanks you

Hi,
Are you able to make one for the Z5P??
some of us are still stuck at ver 2.8.
also, i have used your root kernel program with the lastest twrp and it can boot into recovery,since i am using a custom kernel, i think it will be nice if there is a flashable img file for the latest twrp.
Many thanks in advance.

Hi guys, noob question here: I have twrp old version, can I flash this in recovery?
And also I want to try the xz rom but tried flashing and didn't work, it is my understanding that it was caused by the old twrp and using this I'll be able to use that rom.
