Sony has always been known for being more 'propriety' oriented. Been using T2 Ultra for 6 months. Bought 640XL (WP 8.1) a week back. Things for which I used to have to scour the world of apps, are available within and are a breeze to work. Software needs more 'visual polishing' but is much more...

Something that might help others. Updated phone to new update. Started rooting as per guide on page1. After flashing 4.4.2, easy root failed to root the device. Multiple attempts but no success. Flashed 4.4.3 update and booted system. Realised I has Super User already installed. Uninstalled SU...

Is this pre-rooted? If not, how to root after flashing?

Well written guide. Success here. Rooted now.

I used color OS for a few days. Very impressive. Changed to stabler stock rom by cmahendra. Can someone extract dialer/phone and messaging app from color OS v2 and upload? These look very rich and eye catching.

My phone is rooted. Using ES file explorer, when I try to delete, I get the message delete failed. I can't even change the properties of file. Edit: Succeeded with Root Explorer. Thanks.

I am running stock .20 ROm. Micromax registration is really bugging me. Every now and then it pops up and sends a message on its own eating into my prepaid thing. Any way to remove this crappy piece of thing?

This is a good launcher. Is it possible to get one for a odexed (stock) rom?

Finally, tired after numerous attempts, decided to take it to the service center. Asked them to update to 4.2.1. They had the same problem. After flashing, the phone just wouldn't boot past the boot animation. They kept trying. After two hours, they gave it back to me saying there is a...

You didn't get me. Let me explain. I was initially on a 4.1.2 ROM. Then I upgraded to 4.2.1 ROM by CWM flash. After this phone was getting sudden reboots. On one occasion, while browsing gallery, something happened and the screen looked like a B&W TV with no signal. I had to shut down the phone...

Something strange. I was on a 4.2.1 rom but was experiencing frequent reboots. I thought of cleaning up the phone and flashed 4.2.1 rom from here with SP tools. SP tools showed completion but thereafter phone just wouldn't boot. After the initial Canvas HD logo, screen blank and nothing...

I am in a bit of mess and need to get the phone into factory fresh state. Will flashing this ROM do that? I need the phone memory and internal SD to be like factory fresh state. Do let me know.

Thanks for your reply. I will try your suggestion and see. In the meanwhile, I removed TWRP and flashed CWM 6.0.3.0 and fixed permissions with that. The phone did not reboot on its own for close to eight hours (which it was doing earlier at random). I thought problem was solved. But trying to go...

Let me first explain what I did. 1. From stock rom, after doing the root (TWRP recovery), i flashed JellyDaemon v 2.0 listed here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2307247 . Used CPU control inbuilt in app to set CPU governer to OnDemand Fantastic ROM with no problems. 2. After...

I got the device yesterday. Whole day has been spent trying to install CWM and then root. Using win8 pro, the drivers are installed. On running sp flash tool, on connecting the phone without battery, tool recognises the device and then throws and error 8200 which is something like "the loading...
