Hello:
first, thank you developers and modders for you amazing work.
I've been searching around the forums for a Stock Android ROM (ICS based, for Xperia Miro), without luck.
Is there a true Stock Android ICS for our Xperias? and when i say stock i mean something like the Nexus experience (stock dialer, notification bar, etc without Sony's mods except maybe the device drivers)
Best Regards

Try Nexus Xperia by Shivang Dave in Dev forums. It's JB based, and gives nearly pure AOSP experience. I know you asked for ICS, but there isn't such rom for Miro. It's just not worth for mods and devs to stick to ICS...
CyanogenMod has really close to stock experience, but it has its cons... I'd go for Shivang's rom.

I'm 99% sure that Shivang Dave posted a pure untouched stock ROM.

Thank you for your honest and well explained answer.
Unfortunately, my Miro's bootloader is locked, and that's why i was asking for a ICS stock based ROM, since i can´t upgrade it to JB ( AFAIK, please correct me if i'm wrong)

Hello everyone!
I'm just requesting if anyone can make a ROM based on both MIUI and Gingerbread...
I love these 2 Roms and I can't decide what to use :S
So I made this thread to ask if someone can make a Rom on MIUI & Gingerbread...
I'm asking a big thing I know... :S

stockginger its leaked rom motoblur 451-134?
if is that, its impossible to porting one in other or viceversa!
i tell you for my personal test, usually the original rom from motorola its very hard to modded, specially in case to added in other (aosp) rom!
this happened because, if you remove some blur.apps the moto-rom crashed!!
i read that someone find to port motoblur on samsung or htc devices...without good results!

Ok thanks for the Reply!!
The stockginger is any Gingerbread ROM for the Defy
So in conclusion It's nearly impossible and it's EXTREMELY hard to do it :S
Ok then... I really don't know what Rom to use XD
I like MIUI's UI but I like Stock GB simplicity and speed..
hi there
I updated my xperia pro from the default 2.3 to ics 4.0.4 and now it is very slow. I backup all my data, and did a hard reset (and ics was the default after it), but it is now the same. why is it?
thanks

I read somewhere that resetting to factory configuration solves some lag problems, but overall stock ICS rom is just that slow.
My xperia pro has a locked bootloader, so custom rom options are minimal, however I recommend Ice Cream Pureness, I use that one and it is waaaaay faster and smooth than stock ICS rom, I'm very happy with it.
There's also Jelly Sandwich... I've read it's even faster... gotta try that one next month maybe.
If your phone has an unlockable bootloader, your choices are way better... and faster since you can actually flash it a better kernel. Search through Arc S forum (xperia pro does not have own forum section so we're there)
Hello,
Can any one tell me in a simple pointed way to upgrade my Xperia Ray to Jelly Bean. I am currently on ICS.
I would appreciate a simple point wise response with links to files to be downloaded.
Thanks.

Custom ROM, Official JB ROM is not released for 2011 Xperia phones. Moreover, ICS is damn too slow and hence wanted to try out Super Jelly Bean. Don't know what should be the exact sequence of events.
Appreciate any help!
No ROMs I could update

And if you all believe I did not search the forum, I downloaded almost 5-6 custom ROMs, kernels and flashed them but the phone doesn't just boot up.
ICS 4.0.4 did not allow for rooting hence went for 4.0.3 and rooted. Since, last 2 days, I flashed my ray more than 10 time with no success.
No Jelly Bean ROM I could find which would make it workable. Hence, settling for 4.0.3
Thanks.

Hello. How come you didn't get an answer yet? To flash any custom rom all you have to do is to unlock bootloader. Just google the phase "Unlocking the boot loader" and the first link will lead you to the official website with all the instructions (I can't post links since I'm new here). The only problem is that your warranty will be void (if it is a problem). Some roms can be flashed without unlocking, but Super Jelly Bean is not one of them (as far as I know).

Actually before I used SJB 7 for my ROM on my Ray.. I used ICS 4.0.4 Stock ROM from SONY, but ICS stock ROM too laggy.. So I decide to change to custom ROM and I use SJB with fusion kernel 5.4 and it works fine... ICS 4.0.4 can root.. just follow instruction on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2135918

Hi, maybe am late or maybe not, anyway
I recommend using test point method to unlock your bootloader so you don't lose your DRM data. Proceed with caution do not attempt this if you don't know what you are doing,** I take NO responsibility if something happen to your phone, you are doing this at your own risk.**
here is the links: www[DOT]androidflip[DOT]com/unlock-xperia-phones-bootloader-without-losing-drm-data-track-id-working/
sorry am a new user i can't post links replace [DOT] by .
And also i recommend using Super Jelly Bean 8.0 as its a great ROM very smooth and with nearly no issue.
hit thanks button if this help.

Thanks everyone. With so many help options provided by you fellas, I could flash custom roms. After trying virtually everything, I've settled with SJB 8.
Thanks,
Jitendra
Tried various ROMs and I must say this forum is very helpful.
Not sure how do I close the thread, incase there is any need for it.

Currently there is only 4.0,4.1.2 and 4.4 rom for Xperia J
If you want a 4.2.2+ rom,there is only one 4.4 rom,You may want to know that it's still in alpha version,laggy and camera not working

Sorry for late reply,
I suggest you to use PA rom made by lozohcum,it's base on cm10
PA ROM : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2326477
As you tried a few custom rom,you may notice that the screen won't light up when someone dial-in, you need to press the lockscreen button twice in order to pick up the phone.
also,the illumination bar isn't working normally in cm10,you can try it first and you can disable it from setting page after you flash the rom.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You might want to use walkman to work on your phone,I am using this,
Download : http://d-h.st/HOJ
Original link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43100933&postcount=229
Since album and movie app update a lot, google yourself "album for 4.1.2" and "movie for 4.1.2"
It's better for you to use CM10 or stock JB since the CM11 is still buggy
If you fell your phone is laggy, use vengance kernel for the stock JB 4.1.2
Here is the list of tweaks, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1947926
It works for all phone.
Hopes it help you! :laugh:
Im buying a Xperia Sp tomorrow and i'm planning on rooting and putting a custom rom on (maybe CM 13) I'm wondering is there a rom thats based on either 5.1.1 or 6 that supports the sony bravia engine 2 so that it still works?
alot of people have said to me if its based on a "stock rom" then it will, is this true and also whats the difference between stock roms and other roms?
also if there isnt a rom based on 5 or 6 that supports it and only 4.4.4 does for example that will still do.
I Would also appreciate it if someone could provide a link to one (if there is one) thanks

Hello, and welcome to XDA!
Stock would be what the OEM (in this case, Sony) releases or is at least the base. A custom ROM has a different base (often very close to AOSP), which include CyanogenMod.
Because CM would not have the libraries that Sony has, Bravia Engine probably will not work. Probably the only way it would be, is to use either the Sony stock ROM or something that used the Sony ROM as it's base.
Unfortunately a quick scan in the SP Development area does not match your criteria.
By the way, this thread may help:
> Sony Xperia SP > Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > Have stock... Want to put something custom on it. Confused
Can direct any questions there, once you have an XDA account.
A bit late for your final decision in purchase, but I hope this helps.
