no it wont work. Dont do it or you might brick your phone.
Wait for a developer to create a pure aosp rom meant for your phone, then flash that.

Thank you
Thank you for the quick response. I am still waiting for a custom ROM for Sony Xperia SP however there isnt a single one available on the web. So I am thinking of downloading the Nexus 4 ROM and modifying it to work with this phone.

Thanks for the reply. Are custom rom with J will fit into E? And the second question is whether to install the official rom that need to have unlocked bootloader or not ?
To install official Rom via pc companion , you will need a locked bootloader otherwise you will brick your device
Official updates can be installed via Emma the official Sony flashtool or androxyde flashtool if u have a locked Or unlocked bootloader
And about roms
I have never tried.. I don't wanna try either
Because I can't raise enough fund for a new device if I brick my phone

Why do you keep inventing more and more ROMs rather clean and repair the official's your "creations" is only for trivial number of users.
Do something useful for others rather than for themselves.
Nobody's no wonder.!!!!
And CWM for Locked BL? Nothing?
So I need to unlock BL to enter recovery? And Play answer me, does phantom kernel break WiFi?

WiFi's now fixed in phantom kernel. And yes you need to unlock your bootloader in order to flash the kernel.

No. Won't be available due to bug in CWM in BL. Developers have tried already.

Don't get what's your problem. I'm not even a developer. I don't invent any rom or make one.

Then why don't you give us one without errors ? Don't be arrogant, people are working here on their own time to give us better ROMs, they don't get paid for what they do. And why don't you learn english when posting on enslishspeaking forum ? 37 years and still sounding like spoiled kinder garden bratt.

Request to developers: Port CWM for our device

As you might know, this device doesn't have CWM, only a bad stock recovery which is pretty much unusable and very limited, so my request to the developers is to port CWM for our device or TWRP. There is CWM out for other devices with this chipset, so it will be possible to create CWM for us also I think.
have you tried the CWM by superdragonpt? found here:

Like I said earlier, the chance of that this device has a unlocked bootloader is high as I have even managed to flash a corrupt recovery.
Just a thought. Has any one tried any type of bootstrap and/or boot hijack method of recovery? Something like safestrap, etc? I don't have the device, I was just doing some research for a friend that purchased one of these yesterday.

[Q][Xperia E] How to install recovery ?

I am using Sony Xperia E C1504 Single and facing problem flashing zips and need Recovery badly. I'm using 11.3.A.2.23 Stock Firmware.
I want to install Recovery. How to install Recovery do anyone know for 11.3.A.2.23.
just search forums
Sorry - 2.23 doesn't have a recovery. You need to do either of these:
1. Downgrade to firmware 0.47 use jjm34's stock recovery (slowest Android version in my experience, moderate customization)
2. Downgrade to ICS firmware 0.68 and install hsr0's recovery and/or XboosT ROM (fastest, least customization)
3. Install CM10 kernel and use the included recovery to flash CM10 (moderate performance, most customizable)
Pick one.

I am in the process of making exactly this, getting some problems with the kernel booting the os but recovery works fine.

Really? I was trying to do this, but got constant build errors since the most tutorials use a kernel with a different Ram disk... So I gave up...
Good news!

[Q] is there any way to upgrade the android version on a device with locked bl?

Hi guys
Lately I have rooted my xperia mini and installed CWM using xparts. Anyways my bootloader is still locked and i'd like to upgrade it to 4.1.2 at least. So is there any way of doing that?
I'm using stock Ics rom and stock kernel.
If there are custom roms available for your device,you could flash them with cwm

Isn't it impossible to flash costum roms on a locked bl
device? I was kinda wondering if I could flash a stock sony jb kernel. Could that work?
If your cwm is for locked bl.. Then there shouldn't be a problem to flash a custom Rom. The Sony kernel your talking about should be supported by your device. I advice you to check your device forum
Pressing the thanks button is better than typing it.. Be Lazy Think Crazy ?
