Hey mates! I used more than a week here and read lots of information provided by all of you! Thank you very much for all your help and well appreciate you effort :good:
However I am now stuck at the signing step with JAVA problem for several hours. I tried reinstalled the IE version of most updated JAVA but still not working.Could anyone help on this? :crying:
Not sure what version you are ment to use. But I dloaded the SDK and it worked. Other than that make sure you have 32 & 64 bit if you are running 64 OS.

Good luck

No more MTP?

[ICS-OK] After Installation of "USB Mass Storage" support, the device doesn't support MTP anymore? How could I revert to original?:confused:

Hi!
Today I tried to flash ICS. However I cannot proceed after I tried to use install.zip. My tablet shows me that installation failed - I think this is correct. But AIO-Tool does nothing, it just shows the same screen, is that correct? Here is a pic, which shows where AIO Tool stays:

Uploaded with ImageShack.us
I use Win XP x64, followed this link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756490) to solve the problem that tablet crashes and the tablet is recogniced in recovery mode!

Does anyone have an idea for me, what I am doing wrong? :rolleyes:

Best regards!

4.1 is a bit buggy try 4.0 or 3.4. Read page one with how to disable updates etc. Or there is a fix a couple of pages back.

After Installation of "USB Mass Storage" support, the device doesn't support MTP anymore? How could I revert to original?:confused:
Select Settings, select Storage, select Advanced (the icon located in the upper right part of the screen that looks like three squares vertically stacked), select USB computer connection, then turn on MTP by selecting Media device (MTP). The two UMS scripts will always turn off MTP, so after running either of the UMS scripts and doing what you wanted to do, you will need to repeated these steps to turn MTP back on.

That would be because you have ICS??? This is only for HC 3.2.1 before kernel10 (most of the time)

Help! Successfully flashed ICS but cannot root anymore!

Hi,

So here it is. All in one tool to modify Sony Tablet S (/P) 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.

Now we can MAKE CUSTOM ROMS,
and also FLASH CUSTOM ROMS!
CHECK BELOW FOR ICS TUTORIAL!


Also it has been reported that S.onyTablet.S(P) [ALLinONE] tool
works with Sony Tablet P! (thanks to RayIczer for info!)

Special thanks to skoperst! Thanks for making us 'superusers'! ;)

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 :)


[S.onyTablet.S features]:

MAIN MENU:
  1. Root device - doesn't need description. Added compatiblity for CHINA devices!
  2. 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.
    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!

    TWEAKS AND MODS SUBMENU:
  10. [ICS-OK] Install "rescue-backdoor" - anti-bootloop protection, gives opportunity to reflash current firmware
    if something goes wrong with modifying system things.
  11. [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".
  12. [ICS-OK] Toggle OTA system updates and notifications - you can disable annoying update notifications
    (after "rescue-backoor"). Also enable back.
  13. [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).
  14. [ICS-OK] Install gps-fix mod - changes gps.conf with modded version to get better and faster signal.
  15. [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.
  16. [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!
  17. Add WiFi AD-HOC Support - As suggested - fully automatic adhoc enabler.
    Big thanks to zerod78 for the solution! To get back to original state - run again.
  18. [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.
    Big thanks to Deeco7 and Team ICEmods for the modded apks! To get back to stock app - run again.
  19. [ICS-OK] Install latest PS Store app. - Downloads latest PS Store app from Sony, and installs it.
    Users who got problem with installing 'Account Manager' update from inside PS Store can use modded Google Play Store,
    from above, to install it without problems :)
  20. [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 :)
  21. [ICS-OK] Enable write permissions to SD. - reenable SD write permissions for all applications! No more FileTransfer-monopoly!

    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 v4.1 for example ;)

Also because of many questions:
kernel build#10 is not rootable for now!



[ICS TUTORIAL! v0.7]:

ICS FIRMWARES: here :)


  1. [*]Download ICS FIRMWARE,
    [*]Copy it to external SD,
    [*]Run v4.0 AiO - goto 'Custom Rom' submenu, choose 'Decrypt Update' function,
    (after it will copy decrypted update, device will reboot and again it will be copied to PC - be patient!)
    [*]Follow AiO tool instructions,
    [*]Choose YES for add root etc.,
    [*]Choose YES for sign new custom update
    (JAVA required - if you dont have, then install it, and manually run 'Sign' function),
    [*]Choose YES for flashing new custom update :)
    [*]Wait for finish :) :) :)


    If you are not familiar with all custom flashing stuff - then first just check
    below for videos demonstrating how it goes from A to Z.

    BluechipJ made a great tutorial video, just check it out HERE!


IMPORTANT! DO NOT CHANGE BACK REGION, AFTER SUCCESSFULL ICS FLASHING!
AIO TOOL IS COMPATIBLE WITH ICS FLASHING, BUT ALL THE OTHER FUNCTIONS
NEED TO BE CHECKED, REWRITTEN, TESTED, ADAPTED TO WORK WITH ICS.
MANY THINGS HAS BEEN CHANGED, I WILL STEP-BY-STEP CHECK ALL THE FUNCTIONS.

|||UPDATE||| > Region Changer works good for me on ICS :)


[CHINA DEVICE TUTORIAL! v0.3]:

HOW TO MAKE CHINEESE TAB FULLY WORKING,
CONVERT IT TO NORMAL, NOT LIMITED TABLET!
INCLUDING ALL APPS, MARKET/GOOGLE PLAY STORE ETC...!!!!
INCLUDING ICS FIRMWARE!



  1. [*]Root device using option no.1,
    [*]Run tweaks&mods - and apply Rescue-Backdoor function,
    [*]Run region changer and choose US region,
    [*]Download US ICS FIRMWARE (no 3G firmware at the moment, but it will work, just without 3G),
    [*]Copy it to external SD,
    [*]Run v4.0 AiO - goto 'Custom Rom' submenu, choose 'Decrypt Update' function,
    (after it will copy decrypted update, device will reboot and again it will be copied to PC - be patient!)
    [*]Follow AiO tool instructions,
    [*]Choose YES for add root etc.,
    [*]Choose YES for sign new custom update
    (JAVA required - if you dont have, then install it, and manually run 'Sign' function),
    [*] Choose YES for flashing new custom update :)
    [*]Wait for finish :) :) :)




[FAQ - frequently asked questions v0.2]:


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 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 updated directly to stock ICS, is there a way to root, or revert it back?
- Unfortunatelly no, if you've updated to unmodded firmware, then for now
there is no way back to 3.2.1, also no solution to root. If you have prerooted ICS,
then downgrade is possible - look below.


5. 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+).


6. 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.


7. 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.


8. 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.
(removed from s.ony server - need mirror)
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.


9. 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.
