Nope, root checker still says I don't have proper root access. I'll try updating the Super user. And if that doesn't work I'll install super user SU.
Edit: There's no update available for Superuser in the Play Store. Will try and install Super User SU. Is there any way I can uninstall SuperUser?

no service with cm9.1 fxp137
hey guys,
firstly thank you for this post!
I have a problem with cm9.1. I have flashed the boot.image and then wipe cache and delvik cache. I then install the zip Rom and after the gapps. I reboot and it works perfect. love the droid and the background. but after boot I get the lock screen and and the bottom it shows 'no service'..
I then unlock the phone and I can't dial and I don't see any dialling button.
it also gives me a messages has stopped and email has stopped error. these poo up. I then try access settings/ mobile network and it says settings has stoppedresponding.
I am not sure what to do as I have tried overriding the data connection but nothing works. I am from S.A and on Vodacom network do u think this makes the difference?
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi from Russia guys! i have a question about my Xperia S, is exist way to display lyrics on the built in Walkman player? Editing ID3 tags, or other things, i dont want to install 3rd party software for this little thing)
And another question about USB Sticks with NTFS file system, is anyway to connect it? FAT32 file size limit is sucks. And another one question about connecting USB devices via OTG, often phone tells that usb device eats too many power, is that normal?

1. Nope, not possible to use Lyrics on it.
2. Not yet. I think K900 might be working on a solution for it.
3. I never used OTG, so i can't say...

Flash a new rom then flash advanced stock kernel, that should fix it. You have fubared your root, only way to fix it is new rom.

Certain USB sticks use more power, that is why it says that. Use otg with a usb hub that is powered to get around the issue.
There used to be an NTFS mod for gingerbread but I havent seen it for ICS yet.
Several ubernoob questions : )
Hello,
I bought an XPERIA U for my gf, she likes the phone, but as many girls she dislikes the theme/colors of the icons/apps.
The SMS icon is "ok" but when you go in its very sober and dark, and she wants something bright like in iOS, so I browsed the appstore and found SMS GO PRO, which is doing well.. But this app sends spam text messages now and then. So i'd like to find a way to have this standard text messaging app to do bright, by applying another theme?
or do I need to put a custom rom on it?
If no custom rom is needed, which theme do I need to install (i'm very noob on this for the moment). I get my nexus 7 24th of september than I can play a bit more with android ^^
Thanks in advance, I hope I put this post in the right topic.

Hi there. As this thread is just a help thread for the Xperia S, you'd be better off posting your question in the Q&A.
Hey there!
My situation is there are two same xperia s devices with the same stock 4.0.4 . Same google localization and we tried to install dead trigger on both.
One of them showed it in play store and installed without a problem, but the other one doesn't show it and can't install it. When we force to the apps play store page it says its incompactible with the device.But when i go to play.google.com manually sign in with the google account and find dead trigger click on install it starts installing. So dead trigger is solved but there are many apps on the play store that the device doesn't show when we search them.
In the app settings i cleared data and deleted updates. It has not solved the problem.
Any help\idea would be appriciated.
Thanks in advance.

Software location, I guess. Check from where both firmwares are from, this may have something to do with it.

I THINK it's a known bug. I can't remember, though...
My question: any way to make the Walkman app recognizes the ID3 tags I edited with an app? It simply doesn't recognises it. Didn't tried wiping data yet.
Sent from my LT26i with Tapatalk 2
You could try iTag Music Tag Editor, if that's the kinda thing you're after
No, I already edited everything. The problem is the Walkman app, that does not recognize the changes: Compare the screenshot:
View attachment 1322075
The first screenshot show how it is ob the Walkman app
View attachment 1322079
And the second one show how it was meant to be on the Walkman, but it isn't. The Poweramp works well.

18There are a lot of current users of the Xperia S/Acro S/ Sola and a lot of new users coming through here aswell. There are also a lot of questions being asked time and time again, aswell as a lot of new users being flamed and/or trolled for asking a simple question. This is filling up our Q&A and Development forums with junk which doesn't need to be there.
Instead, just point them to this thread to get all the help they require, which in turn, lessens the clutter of the forums aswell.
If you're reading this and you're a new user to XDA, I suggest you read the XDA New User Guide by mf2112, as it contains all the information you'll need to have a happy and productive time across the whole of XDA.

Post #2 will include the rules which I'm putting in place for this thread, which I expect you all to abide to.
It may also include an FAQ of questions which get asked fairly often, yet don't have a specific thread to find the answer. (I'm still deciding on this idea yet though). It will also include some important links for you all to check out.
In post #3 you'll find the links to different ROMs and kernels for the Xperia S. Links provided by Felimenta97.
ASK ANY RELATED QUESTION HERE,bootloader, drivers, how to root etc...... You will either get an answer here or will be given the best thread for you to go to so you can get your answer.
Even if you find your answer from one of the links provided, please come back here and look through the other threads, as you may learn something else you didn't know.
