1) 'rescue-backdoor' for ICS is built-in in custom zip made with AiO, everything is correct, it looks that in new firmware there is one new condition in order to get ota notifications. Update app checks for vendor.prop values, AND ALSO for region.zip. OTA notifications can be achieved, only when vendor.prop values are corresponding with region.zip. In other words vendor.prop values needs to be for the same region as in /configs/region.zip - device region.

Hi Condi, it looksw like that I have now a US vendor.prop but a German region.zip

What should I change to get OTA notification?

-- Edit --
Enclosed vendor.prop and region.zip

If that won't flash, then you're probably looking at either a corrupted region.zip or your ro.sony.build.incremental value hasn't been decremented. Can you pull tmp/recovery.log and post the contents?

I really appreciate you helping with this. Thank you very much. I've never changed anything related to region.

Am I doing this wrong? I'm not super comfortable with adb. This is all I get:

C:\Users\>adb pull /tmp/recovery.log
1014 KB/s (7274 bytes in 0.007s)

You're doing it right. 'adb pull' pulls the file from the tablet to your computer. Look in whatever path you ran adb from (on your computer) for recovery.log. You can upload the file or open it with notepad or your text editing tool of choice.

Your region.zip is corrupt/missing and there's no known way to gain the necessary permissions to remedy the problem. You will have to contact Sony for service or try a store exchange. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Well, damn. At least I know. Again, thanks for the assistance. Hopefully there isn't any trouble with servicing it after it's been rooted.

I think the tutorials are not clean and all in one place to follow, that is why many people get into mistakes, too many ifs and get from here and there and read here and there...I think it would be a good idea that some one who has done successfully and has knowledge makes a thread for noobs or if condi have time to do it will sure be the best...

I haven't done that my self since I do want to sell mine and don't want to risk brick!

Same thing is in ATRIX forum for noobs although there are other threads here and there.

UPDATE JAVA

If everyone would just make sure that they have the latest "JAVA UPDATE" (USE INTERNET EXPLORER ONLY!!! AND CLICK HERE) for their respective computer's operating system, all of condi's instructions (on the first page) become abundantly and perfectly clear. Clear as day, and it is the only way.

Condi's instructions on the first page are very fine, perfect actually, but:

Without updated JAVA drivers, you ARE NOT going to see the correct text instruction sets in the AiO. PERIOD.

:( You will keep thinking that something is wrong, the prompts aren't the same.
:( You won't be able to figure out what you are doing wrong, the prompts aren't the same.
:( And, of course, it will never ever work. BECAUSE THE PROMPTS AREN'T THE SAME.

YES, REALLY!

Condi if you are around these fine days, you may want to add the JAVA update imperative to the first page.

Hmmm, I thought, when Java JRE/SDK is not installed prompts are the same , but the EFFECTS of internal commands are not the same, for instance:
It correctly prompts you if you want to sign the update. But then It throws an error or giving you 0 bytes zip file...
Because Java in entire proces is only needed for signing the update. Nothing else.
It will not change prompts...
Correct me if I'm wrong.

And these are not DRIVERS. This is just software that enables us to run programs written in Java programming language.
Driver is a software designed for make some devices running in the system, allowing communication between computer and an external device.
Like video card, sound card, motherboard, mouse, keyboard, or even phone [adb drivers]

If we could connect Java Island of Indonesia to the PC we would need a Java driver to use it ;)

Thought I'd post again, try to make a tidier post and also bring information to people who might not have waded through the 400 posts to get to my little walkthrough. So:

1- Download US ICS FIRMWARE from post #1 on this thread.

2- Copy it to external SD,

2- Download, install and run v2.7 AiO (also in post #1)- goto 'Custom Rom' submenu, choose '1 - Decrypt Update' function, but !STOP! when it asks if you want to root etc. Stop, tell it no to root. You'll be taken back to the custom ROM screen. Then...

3- Copy the decrypted zip from the SD card to the _decrypted folder in the All in One folders. Either by pulling the card or whatever. This is important as I believe the existing version of AiO doesn't actually do this, even though it says its done it - I did this once I realised the export to PC wasn't working and the update fired straight through.

4- Once this is done, put the card back in and run '2 - add root etc' in the AiO custom ROM menu. Let this run, tell it yes to signing.

5- Once this has all finished, copy the custom_update_signed.zip from pc directory - '_signed' to external SD. At this point, I cleaned the SD card of all other files bar the hack recovery and the custom zip, so the best way would be to pull the card or mess about with file transfer etc.

6- Run '4 - Disable recovery signature..' function from AiO, follow the AiO tool instructions,

7- After running '_hack_recovery', which will fail (it's supposed to) choose 'custom_signed_update.zip'

8- Hold your breath or make a cup of tea, whichever suits, you should have ICS in a couple minutes!

I followed this one. Worked without any problem. Step 3 does the trick I think.
Got a rooted tablet S with ICS in Belgium.

Not wrong.

I personally thrashed about with this for a full two hours on the first go-round when condi originally released the ICS update. For the life of me, I couldn't update and, obviously, couldn't get root. Then recognizing anomalies in what was supposed to be there and what wasn't, I went back to the basics and decided to update java (via IE) on the Win7 X64 boxes. It instantly became clear that I had been getting incorrect outputs from the AiO all the way along previous to the java update.

I've done four so far now, two hands-on and two remotely, in each instance the JAVA platform update is the only thing that made the AiO ICS update into a simple routine, (and totally without incident.) Each and every ICS update that I have done, after updating java, has taken 5 minutes. Again, without a whisper of a problem. (I have automatic java updates turned off on all of my 6 client machines, the 2 Active Directory servers get them for security measures. At any rate, they're freaking annoying don't you think?)

So, the only thing that worked for me was updating java to SE31. The return prompts were totally different than when using SE25. Semantically, calling the java update a 'driver' update sounds far more benign than referring to it as a 'platform' update. My guess is that this is something that was addressed last "Patch Tuesday" in November of last year. Umm, I didn't get that one either. ;)

Can't say much more on it other than that, the AiO now works for me... perfectly. Thanks.

v2.8

Hi guys,

I've almost done v2.8.
Many changes in code, many additional region.zip checks for be secure,
I could say that now (I hope) there is no way to get it empty! ;)

Also:

1) I've made 'rescue-backdoor' ICS ready - its now modifying vendor.prop values,
2) Finishing new ver of 'region changer' ICS ready - changes values also in vendor.prop corresponding to the region.zip,
3) added check in custom update maker script - if su binary is in other then default path,
and many many other small changes :)

So everybody who wants to use it for ICS flashing, just wait till evening,
gonna make final tests, downgrade my tab to 3.2.1 and then test everything from the beginning.

Hi,

I know that a lot of us asked before and still don't know how to downgrade from ICS to stock Honeycomb.
I will have to travel and need 3G. If i downgrade will i be able to put the tab exactly as i bought it?

Thanks in advance

Hi Condi,
After what several users including me have found to be a java issue are you able to check for a minimum java version and halt or even backstep the update if not sufficient? I needed java 64 bit I thought even though I updated the 32 bit java regularly when prompted to do so.

Java version is the requirement. No need to waste time on checks like this, because if we follow the path of such detailed checks, the next checks would be if you have tablet s or galaxy tab, or check if you are a moron or not.... For an user there is a clean and straightforward message: have a latest Java installed. If you fail to comply to this small requirement then I wouldn't advise you to continue with playing with the AIO tool. Some basic knowlwdge and skills are a must. Sorry.
Rough words, but it has to be said.
Java problems report at Sun Java forums.

@Condi
I am confused regarding my current status (problem of a beta tester ;-) )
My region.prop looks like a German one ...

ro.sony.sku.version=27550120_20
ro.camera.sound.forced=0
ro.com.google.mcc_fallback=262
ro.product.locale.language=de
ro.product.locale.region=DE
ro.pss.gamepad.buttonmeaning=cross-enter
ro.sony.network.wwan=0
ro.sony.sku.country=Germany
ro.sony.sku.detailed=27550199
ro.sony.update.category_id=ST003
ro.sony.volume_limit=0
ro.sony.wm.atrac=0
ro.sony.wm.clearphase_path=SGPT1_001.LPS
ro.sony.wm.xloud_path=SGPT1_001.XLD
Click to expand...
Click to collapse

My vendor.prop has a lower ro.sony.build.incremental value then the original:
(original : ro.sony.build.incremental=120410004)

ro.sony.update.service_id=nbx03_001
ro.sony.sku.base=nbx03_001
ro.sony.build.id=TISU0017700
ro.sony.build.incremental=111104047
Click to expand...
Click to collapse

and my current build.prop 'ro.build.version.incremental' is =120410002
I guess this is the same like the original one.

It looks like a little bit 'messy'.

Is there a chance to clean up this chaos? What should I do?
Could you advise me please?

    Hi,

    So here it is. All in one tool to modify Sony Tablet S (/P/Xperia) in most important ways.
    From now on I will directly update 'S.onyTablet.S' tool with new features.
    If you think about some new functions, which could be useful to add - feel free to propose.


    If you want to keep this project alive - don't forget to donate,
    its not mandatory, but greatly appreciated.

    HUGE THANKS to those that have already donated!


    Condi presents... S.onyTablet.S [ALLinONE] tool :)
    zdnet-sony_tablet_s1_side.jpg


    [S.onyTablet.S features]:

    MAIN MENU:
    1. [ICS-OK] Root device - doesn't need description. Added compatiblity for CHINA devices and new root method for ICS!
    2. [ICS-OK] Unroot device - this will delete su, busybox, superuser - all root things. Useful regarding warranty.
    3. [ICS-OK] Region changer - !! yes! one-click region changer, also changes additional build.prop
      values, in order to get correct ota-update on current old-region firmware. Available 29 regions. For S&P tabs only.
      Big THANK YOU to all the people, who helped, collection of regions is based on users values, in large part.
    4. [ICS-OK] Run ADB Shell - runs adb shell - terminal from pc. Just handy.
    5. [ICS-OK] Reboot device - just reboot.

      CUSTOM ROM AND FLASHING SUBMENU:
    6. [ICS-OK] Create decrypted update.zip - boom1 :) decrypt official OTA updates, and can make custom rom from it.
    7. [ICS-OK] Add root, "rescue-backdoor", init.d to decrypted zip - boom2 :)
      (in previous step it can be also made) - make custom rom with root and build.prop mod built-in.
      Now init.d also included! in v2.3 I've moved script into separate files\_custom_update_maker.bat - to be userfriendly,
      now you can make your own modifications, own custom rom based on AiO :)
    8. [ICS-OK] Sign decrypted custom-update.zip - boom3 :) signs modified update.
    9. [ICS-OK] Flash signed zip [auto/manual] - boom4 :)
      (before using sign your update) - WELCOME CUSTOM ROMS FLASHING!
    10. [ICS-OK] Flash signed zip [straight from recovery] - will work only on devices
      already-working with _hack_recovery.zip! and with recovery up to R1A. Handy in some situations.

      TWEAKS AND MODS SUBMENU:
    11. [ICS-OK] Install "rescue-backdoor" - anti-bootloop protection, gives opportunity to reflash current firmware
      if something goes wrong with modifying system things.
    12. [ICS-OK] Run OTA ZIP autodownloader - you've got to have "System Update" notification to use it.
      Make it if new OTA comes in, or after "rescue-backdoor".
    13. [ICS-OK] Toggle OTA system updates and notifications - you can disable annoying update notifications
      (after "rescue-backoor"). Also enable back.
    14. [ICS-OK] Install init.d support - just push your bash scripts to '/system/etc/init.d/' to get them autostart
      on device booting. Useful to get some modifications (for example other sdcard mounting).
    15. [ICS-OK] Install gps-fix mod - changes gps.conf with modded version to get better and faster signal.
    16. [ICS-OK] Fake as other device - fake your tab as one of four available (Acer A500, Motorola XOOM,
      Galaxy SII, Galaxy TAB) - to get more games/apps available in market :) To bring back original - run again.
    17. [ICS-OK] [init.d] script] Increase SD/extSD read speeds. - adds init.d script which automatically on boot changes cache value,
      to get better read speeds (idea by obicom, solution by brainmaster - read more here, thx guys!
    18. Add WiFi AD-HOC Support - As suggested - fully automatic adhoc enabler. HC only.
      Big thanks to zerod78 for the solution! To get back to original state - run again.
    19. [ICS-OK] Install latest [modded] Google Play Store - changes Google Store App to one,
      which is modded to unlimited access to apps and with removed countries restriction etc.
      Big thanks to Deeco7 and Team ICEmods for the modded apks! To get back to stock app - run again.
    20. [ICS-OK] Install latest PlayStation Mobile app. - Downloads latest PSM app from Sony, and installs it.
      Users who got problem with installing 'Account Manager' update from inside PSM can use modded Google Play Store,
      from above, to install it without problems :)
    21. [ICS-OK] Install "USB Mass Storage" support. - yes! for external sd, and also internal one!
      Can be easly turned on with two shortcuts on home screen :)
    22. [ICS-OK] Enable write permissions to SD. - reenable SD write permissions for all applications! No more FileTransfer-monopoly!
    23. [ICS-OK] Update OEM Apps. - some oem apps from latest JB release2 fw for Sony Tablet S owners!


      UPDATE CHECKER - new function, which checks on start (~2s) if there is a new version of ALLinONE!
      If there is new version - it opens official S.onyTablet.S webpage! Always stay up to date :D
      This option can be turned off - if you want to disable it just make empty file called "_offupdates" in "files" directory ;)

    Its good to use S.onyTablet.S tool not too deep in directory structure,
    unpack it in root of C:\S.onyTablet.S v6.0 for example ;)

    [FAQ - frequently asked questions v1.0]:


    If you have some questions, just ask, most common, usefull will be added here.


    1. I don't know this, I don't know that! Grrrrr! That doesn't work!
    Throw everything and help me NOW!
    - Remember that all the project is free, everybody who works here, spends his own
    free time. Its our hobby. We all have jobs, families, everyday duties. Nobody force
    you to do anything. Appreciate all the work, read all you can before proceeding,
    do not blame if something goes wrong. Of course feel free to post, but its good
    to search for the solution, before doing that :) Most of the questions has already
    been answered.

    2. How can I know if my tablet is rootable?
    - Just run AiO tool, and choose 'Root' function, it will gonna check in the beginning
    if your device is rootable, if not - you will gonna see the statement.

    3. When root for not-rootable (fw R6A+) devices will gonna be available?
    - There is no ETA. When new exploit is going to be found, then of course
    I will inform you about it, and it should included in future version of AiO tool.

    4. I've successfully flashed 'custom prerooted ICS', there is SuperUser in apps,
    but I don't have working root, why?
    - If you have SuperUser, and /system/bin/tempsu binary, then most probably you used
    SuperSU in 3.2.1. In AiO v2.7 there was no path check for SU binary.
    Just use this small fix (path check included in AiO v2.8+).

    5. I've flashed 'custom prerooted ICS', but I can't access Google Play Store (Market),
    how to fix this?
    - Just use modded Google Play Store, from AiO 'Tweaks and Mods' submenu,
    choose standard one.

    6. I've flashed 'custom prerooted ICS'. I want Honeycomb 3.2.1r2 back!
    Can I downgrade my device from prerooted 4.03 to 3.2.1r2    ?
    - YES! In few simple steps:
    1. Boot into RECOVERY;
    2. Flash 3.2.1r2 update zip (removed from s.ony server - added mirror :) );
    3. During flash tablet will reboot 3 or 4 times, with 'green dots' screen.
    Just before last 3rd dot reboot you've got to hold VOL+ button,
    to get to RECOVERY just after flashing complete! IMPORTANT!;
    4. Wipe device;
    5. DONE.

    Wipe just after flash is very important, because if you will not gonna do this,
    then it will be bootlooped in start animation, after wipe will boot correctly,
    but after another reboot it will gonna boot again into ICS!
    So if you will not gonna wipe just after flash, then just start all over again.

    7. I've bricked my device! What can I do?
    - As long as your 'region.zip' file is not damaged, then for 99% your tab can be fixed.
    Firstable try to flash this: 3.2.1r2 firmware
    if not works, then try this:
    signed-nbx03_016-ota-120803071.zip,
    in fot works, then try this:
    signed-nbx03_001-ota-120803002.zip

    In most cases it works. If it will fail then:
    1. Boot into RECOVERY;
    2. Try to flash the update again - it will fail - thats ok;
    3. Wait for 2-3min to get adb available;
    4. Use 'adb pull /tmp';
    5. Post your recovery.log and region.prop files.

    8. I've flashed 'custom prerooted ICS'. Now I get OTA update notifications,
    is this normal?
    - YES, its normal. In order to 'be safe' we need to have lower incremental value,
    and thats why your device 'thinks' that there is a new firmware on the air.
    DO NOT UPDATE. It will flash stock fw, no root, no way back.
    You can disable ota notifications via AiO - tweaks&mods section.

    9. I've flashed R5+ ICS firmware. I can't decrypt and flash custom updates!?
    - From R5+ firmwares adb shell in recovery has been disabled.
    It means that you can't use preroot/decrypt/flash AiO functions
    in future fw releases.

    10. Is there a way to update to R5+ and still be able to hack recovery?
    - YES, in AiO v5.3 make custom prerooted firmware,
    and choose to replace hidden.img in custom update.
    It will prevent from recovery update = will remain hackable one.

    11. I'm trying to root (new method). I still get ERROR INTENT 3?
    - The script checks after getting all the permissions,
    after every step the check is being made.
    Most of the devices will be rooted after 2-3 try,
    but some of them... not. What to do?
    Just be patient. Some users got root on 1st run,
    some reported that got root after ~30 tries :)

    The AIO may be helpful but it's far from perfect, with incorrect messages ("su missing" when adb drivers or just the device wasn't found) and missing crucial information like "reboot your device by holding vol+ etc etc etc IF AFTER A WHILE YOU ARE STILL STUCK HERE, CHECK THE DEVICE MANAGER FOR MISSING DRIVERS"
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse
    Nobody force you to use it, you can always do everything manually,
    no need of AiO, thats a PERFECT SOLUTION.

    I've included a lot of verifications in AiO,
    but for God's sake - don't blame AiO&me for that you had incorrect drivers.

    marinos35 said:
    Anyway, thank you for your program, but you should spend your time for the next update to fix the output and making it more troubleshot friendly. I mean, the root failed (because the hacked mtp driver that was included in the program's files wasn't automatically installed) and AIO's output was success?!?!
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse
    I can't make it more user friendly. It needs some experience,
    if its not user friendly for you, then again - don't use it.

    And no - I'm not gonna spend my time on fixing what you've suggested.
    Most likely I'll spend my time with my wife.

    Good night.
