Not tried themes myself, still tweaking with things - gutted that Mobile Bravia Engine isn't working. Weird.
Thanks for your reply mate.
When you have time please check the themes maybe you find a way to make them work also about the keyboard,

Can you theme switch or can you theme select?

For me, the launcher is constantly stopped when I want to select this Page ... what does it need to? Framework?

You will find the home launcher in the apps in the files you exteacted. The name is home.apk, use the root explorer change permissions and move the home.apk to system/apps, then click on it and install it working like a charm,

Hey Jim, yes everything working exept themes.
As for widgets is possible, old ones working also new for z you have to push to system\apps and install them seperatly
We believe is due frameworks

If you under windows 8

1st :
From the Metro Start Screen, open Settings,
Click "Change PC Settings".
Click "General".
Scroll down, and click "Restart now" under "Advanced startup".
Click "Troubleshoot".
Click "Advanced Options".
Click "Startup Settings".
Click [Restart].
Choose "Disable driver signature enforcement" (Usually #7)

2nd
Install device drivers either through the automated (not manualy use the : Install ADB Drivers.exe)
http://www.mediafire.com/?msn16sd5wrb1sdh

3rd

Run as administrator run.bat from motochopper

Normally this should work
Yeah win8 is a prick for drivers, i ended up creating a small bat file (as you can also disable/enable from cmd) see attached. I got sick of doing this all the time though so I went back to Win7. Anyway to use the attached file:

Disable
1.Right click and run as admin (or it will not run)
2.Type '1' and press enter to disable
3.Type '3' and press enter to restart
4.Look for 'Test Mode' bottom right of desktop


Enable
1.Right click and run as admin (or it will not run)
2.Type '2' and press enter to enable
3.Type '3' and press enter to restart
4.Look for NO 'Test Mode' bottom right of desktop

Hope this helped, good luck

so i would recommend to any one with root to use the a.i.o tool to install the rescue back door and turn off system notifications and do what ever the tool worksive used it safely no problems
i would say do it as its the only protection against bricked devices it gives us the ablity to flasher a current safe firmware

So im saying that to be able to flash back to a working state you should use condis AIO tool to enable rescue backdoor so if anyone with root decides to do some tweaking and gets stuck in a bootloop
if your incremental value (the number on the software)is the same as the clean firmware then it will not install package over the the courpt one
and thus you have a soft brick

This exploit accesses the Tegra 3 and Quadcomm Snapdragon chipsets only.
Tried on the S1 and it froze due to a resource exhaustion.
Basically it was probably too much for Tegra 2 to handle.
I did modify the script but that did not help what so ever.

Hey no I have not tried to flash to jb or back to ics I used the AIO tool not the flasher and not to root
But section four of the AIO tool tweaks and mods.
I installed the "rescue backdoor" tweak and after reboot got a system notifcation for an update so im assume that it has worked and lowered the incremtal value so that it will take a offical f/w
I then used another option 3 to turn off the system notification which also worked
Then used the option 4 to install init.d support
So far no problem

I rooted my Xperia Tablet S running the RUN.BAT from Motochopper folder. Now my XTS is rooted. I try with AIO tool to install the "rescue backdoor" but it's not working. See the attached photo. Also checked with ROOT CHECK (Check result: Root access available :)
su available: yes // BusyBox available: yes // BusyBox version: v1.17.1
)
