If you can enter CWM recovery maybe you can flash a kernel and ROM using CWM. That is the only solution I can think of.

Help ! Xperia U Root problem !

I was trying to root my Xperia U with 'Flashtool'. But every time i try it says not enough memory to restore. By going through the forum i got some idea about it & if i'm not mistaking, its about the kernel. Some said i should flash a .10 then root and flash the .54 again. Is that a correct solution ? Or is there other problems with it ?

Is anyone here has any links of .10 & .54 kernels for xperia u of course ?

My build is 6.1.1.B.1.54

Hi everybody, i installed the slimkat ROM on xperia sola, everything works well, but not for the keyboard (performance control installed)
and the biggest problem is the Bluetooth streaming, it pairs and connect with my Bluetooth headphone, but once i play anything on my phone there is no sound at all, i tried with too many other devices as my car, speakers

And its the same annoying problem!


Could anyone help me please!

Thanks everyone

Problem with Xperia Sola CM12.1

Hello, I flashed Cyanogen Mod 12.1 today on my xperia sola, because it used to turn off when SIM card was insert, and it was working great after I disabled high graphics, then i installed official Cyanogen Mod Gapps, and right away Facebook messenger and my phone started to reboot by itself, at first it freezes and reboots, but not from start, beucause it doesnt show "Sony" logo only Cyanogen Mod icon and then boots I unlock it and it does it again, could it be that its because of Gapps? That some of applications do that? Beucause it did that when I used this Gapps (bare minimal)http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/themes-apps/cm12s-gallery-camera-t3084047/post60145868#post60145868 or it is something else? Thank you!

Edit: I restarted phone from start and the phone started to optimize applications again (1/91)...

Xperia Go simlock

Hello dear reader!

This is deeper into the android than I´d thought I´d have to go, so I hope my questions aren´t silly or already answered and I didn´t find them. Here goes:

I have an Xperia go simlocked to T-Mobile Austria. The contract has run out and they would be so nice and unlock it - for the fee of 50€. Somehow I disagree with them because I was in a 24month contract and now that it´s run out, I think the phone should be mine to use freely. They disagree. Now I´ve looked up and down the net, found out that with the IMEI, provider and model the network unlock code can be calculated. I couldn´t find the software to do this, just many dubious offers to provide the code - for a fee (and quite a few virus traps). Now I´m no developer, but have been a user since windows 3.1 and sofar I managed to solve all such issues. This time I´m stuck, don´t want to put 50€ into a two year old phone, considered a first attempt at rooting the thing, but apparently that still doesn´t get rid of the simlock. Is there really no way to use this phone outside of T-mobileworld? Any help or information would be greatly appreciated!
Kindly,
Jay

Hello, my xperia U is looping at the Xperia logo when i power it ON, and wont go off.

So, i was so pissed of yesterday that i look fast on the net, look like so much thing that i cant remember and with that install :

Flashtool / Sony PC companion

I dont think i ever active the option for the usb boot or i dont know what is it that i "read" in something yesterday

So after 2 hours of try of finding / doing something, i give up and go to bed.

So, is there any way to save my phone ? Without to wype it ? The xperia U doesnt have a SD slot so all the pic was stored on the phone, and of course i dont have backup of them.

Thanks in advance

Hello my friend,
As I read what you wrote, you're in a bootloop. There's two possibilities, hardware problem or software problem. Can you reach the flashmode?
