Many thanks, but can you edit the title to say this is for only the older firmware, as people with locked bootloaders cannot root the newer firmware, it may cause false hope and lots of annoying questions....

no, you need unlocked bootloader for those. You will have to stick to stock based roms like mine

this worked ok, but after flashing Assaye V 003, i can't get into recovery, i re-ran install.bat, still the same, pressing volume down does not enter recovery anymore.

I was rooted the second time round too.

volume up to get to recovery

 

[spida_singh]

doh.. cheers mate

Volume up doesnt work either, does when on .303, but after flashing .195, no joy in getting into recovery

 

[bamer02]

Would this work on the Xperia TL running .303 rooted?

Hmmm... It works for me
Just after flash .195, I re-installed recovery - install.bat

 

[gregbradley]

I think we need to make sure we are on stock 195 kernel. Try flashing this in flashtool and see if it works then

 

[spida_singh]

Im on a stock kernel, now on the FTF Kernel your provided in your ROM thread, for some reason, when i flash your ROM, CWM gets removed, i can't go back into it, i have to flash .303, and then use CWM to flash your ROM, i had to do this to upgrade form 003 to 004.

Locked bootloader, running Assaye v4. thanks to CWM. we just need a flashable version to flash after we flash roms.

You rock bro.

Device : Xperia T locked to rogers, rooted and free from carrier apps.

There's an easy fix for this as i just came from the xperia s and had to deal with a locked boot loader on it as well.
We need a flashable version of CWM. this way after you flash a rom before you reboot your device you install CWM, then reboot. then you have ROM and CWM.

I guess you could also try and run the bat file again. (didn't work.)
