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.

There are some very nice and stable ICS ROMs for the A501. There is also a stable, but not quite complete Jelly Bean ROM which I am running. (JB 4.1.2) The two best places to get an ICS ROM and support is Moscow Desire's Evil Alex ROM (hosted on xda), which I understand is based on the stock Acer ICS ROM... however, you will need to upgrade your bootloader to an ICS bootloader. That can be scary for someone new to flashing. An alternative is TegraOwner's ROMs built by Thor and Digitex, which can run with your current Honeycomb bootloader or a custome ICS bootloader, if you wish.
I used to ron Moscow Desire's 3.2 ROM which was very nice. I never have tried his ICS ROMs. I pretty much stick with the TegraOwner's ROMs now because they are well fast, feature packed, stable, and well supported. If you want to run one of Thor's ROMs, you will need to upgrade your CWM Recovery to Touch Recovery v1.7.3. You can find this and all of Thor's stuff on the TegraOwner's site, as well as a lot of support in the forums at forums.tegraowners.com
The final and most stable ICS ROM for the Acer A500/A501 is the TegraOwners ICS v170. If you would like the newer Jelly Bean ROM based on CyanogenMod 10 and Thor and Digitex custom kernel, you can it and support here: forum.tegraowners.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=680
(You'll have to copy/paste the links into your browser since xda is preventing me from creating links due to my low post count)
The Jelly Bean ROM is real fast and stable. They are still working on gps, hdmi, and a few smaller issues. They will get them ironed out soon. Hope this helps.
Hi,
First thanks to Joosh3 for Ultimate N7000 XXLSC JellyBean 4.1.2 v5.1.
I installed this ROM yesterday and have no issues till now.
I need to know if I can get the KIES to work as I need to restore the data from it.
Also, what is the safest method to go back to stock kernel and stock ROM if there is a need to reclaim the warranty as my phone is only a month old. I am new to ROM/kernel flashing and would appreciate if I can get clear and simple instructions.
Thanks.
Can some one help me on this?
Also fb information ticker is not working.

if i'm not mistaken, this ROM is ROOTED..and KIES will not detect any leaked/custom/rooted ROM...but there's possibility,depends on the dev itself because they can could make things work...and about stock ROM and stock kernel, u may want to check sammobile.com..download your original firmware from there and flash it via odin..thats all that i can help cz im a newbie hehehe.
Hello,
I have searched the Motorola Atrix 2 forums for a guide/thread that will help to update my Atrix 2 to Android Jelly Bean.
I have the Cyanogen downloaded along with the required Gapps. This is one of the links that I was referring too.
http://ndroiding.com/motorola-atrix-2-mb865-update/
Now, I have the following questions;
1. How do I root my MB865? Currently I have ICS 4.0.4 (AsiaRetail) and the phone is unrooted. The ICS update was installed OTA.
2. How do I take a backup of my current ROM? I have installed ClockworkRecovery MOD (ROM Manager). The one that I have installed does not support MB865.
3. We have multiple OS(say Win7, WinXP) on one laptop and we boot whichever OS we want when we powerup. So can we do that for our
phones too?
I was referring this xda thread.. and I felt that the information given there was a bit hotch-potch. Also, this one might be old.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396650&highlight=root+atrix+2+mb865
Can anyone post the latest thread if there is any?
Also, there is a request to the moderators of the group. Please collect all the guides and post them together in a separate section (If it's there then sorry.. I missed it).
Thanks

That link what you posted is a custom ROM & did not look much in to it beyond that. First up everything I am posting is for non AT&T device. Be informed that our device does not have a direct fxz for JB 4.3 & what you need to do is go to the developer section & d/l official Moto stock (leaked unofficially) JB 4.1.2 then fxz via rsd to your current ICS phone (obviously you got to read all the steps, drivers,usb debugging enabled etc etc). This gets your device on JB 4.1.2 official and then install Boot Menu Manager 0.3.4 (search development thread again) & thereon read extensively on working of BMM and that point forward you are free to install any Jelly Bean 4.3 custom rom's. Good luck.

So you are on stock ICS and your phone is not ATT... You need to download jelly bean official leak 4.1.2... Install RSD lite on your windows and then install jelly bean rom . To install official jelly bean 4.1.2 , you dont need to root your atrix 2. I have tried this rom and its good.
and if you want to try 4.3 rom then you should try PA 4.3, it is good.
your second answer about rooting- I used swapper method for rooting because one click root method did not work for me.
3rd answer- Yes you can multiboot your atrix 2 for that you install BMM ( boot menu manager ) ... hope it help

How many times are you going to ask this question? Do a little bit of reading for yourself and you will find that the bootloader is not unlockable. Also, if the op of the ROM says to install gapps, then install gapps. Just follow the directions, it's that simple.
If I had a dollar for every time I said that, I'd be making money in a very weird way.

Hi Guys,
I am an IT person, but totally new to Android. I am having Samsung Galaxy S 4G (T959v) running GingerBread (2.3.6).
I had upgraded from Froyo to GingerBread using Kies mini... and since that I am facing a lot of issues running... like slow responsiveness, phone hangs, some times unable to make calls, very high RAM usage etc...
So to fix these issues, I am thinking to install custom ROM (Jelly Bean 4.3 - CyanogenMod 10.2). But I don't know how to do that.
What I read on thread is it first needs to ROOT the device, but I am not sure how to ROOT the device.
Please help me to ROOT the device in easy steps and install custom ROM.. (Off course without bricking my device )
Thanks.
Look at the second link in my signature. Instead of flashing the whole package just flash AntonX's kernel. Read the first couple of posts in the Heimdal thread and you will hopefully know what I am referring to.
From there, follow the directions in the OP of the ROM thread that you would like to flash. The OP will also tell you what works and does not work for that ROM.
I would suggest making a backup copy of your efs folder for the just in case..

Hi, I'm kinda new here, bought the tablet only few days ago and didn't play with it too much,
Have updated to the latest official version (4.1.2) and rooted.
I'm on N8013.
I saw the half-way leaked version of the kitkat on the general post but it says no word if it fits for anything else but N8000.
I don't really care for Kitkat but 4.1.2 is too old..
Any stable release / ROM with TW for a newer version? (I prefer stock)
kinda hard to tell since most of the posts are from 2012 and I have never been to any of them.. you probably know better than I do.
Thanks !
The leaked rom works fine on my N8013, I didn't even have to wipe out my device, kept all my apps from 4.1.2 to 4.4.2. Unfortunately, there is no other versions of Samsung's rom between 4.1.2 and 4.4.2. If you really want to upgrade, I think the leaked rom works fine. As long as you have made a backup in some recovery, you shouldn't have much to worry about.

kinda hard to tell since most of the posts are from 2012 and I have never been to any of them.. you probably know better than I do.
Thanks !

The leaked KitKat verion is for testing purpose only, many features disabled.
Stock or close to stock ROM is available, ARHD is the one.
I'm using ARHD for years now & it's very stable.
Read carefully & understand everything on the ARHD thread before doing anything.

All the features work. You can flash a deodexed rom, install some mods, and you are good to go

Hmm ARHD = revolution?
If so it is also 4.1 so it ain't worth switching. ?
If not please link me..
And about the leaked 4.4.. what do you mean not all features are enabled?
Could you say which? And deodexed run over the disability? Is it stable enough?
I really have no time and effort to fight with mess and bugs..
Thank you for your tips

ARHD = Android Revolution HD
ARHD is the best close to stock 4.1.2 ROM I've ever use. (I have HTC Sensation & GT-N8000 all using ARHD)
Right now there is no Stock KitKat for N8000/8013/8010/8020
All you can get is LEAKED version of KitKat which is only for TESTING purpose, so don't expect to get all features working.
Some "testers" said they get all features working, some said WiFi is not working.
I will not recommend you to flash it, at least wait for official release.
Official KitKat release may be very different / may have features not in the Leaked TEST ROM
[GT-N8000][Leaked firmware] N8000XXUDND5 (Android 4.4) - Open Europe (OXA) [26-04-14]
NOTE:
Mike, the ARHD chef, said he will cook KitKat ROM as soon as the official release out on the net
Lord Boeffla also said that he will make KitKat version of Boeffla Kernel as soon as the official release is there.
Running the Gnabo ROM V1

Hi, I'm kinda new here, bought the tablet only few days ago and didn't play with it too much,
Have updated to the latest official version (4.1.2) and rooted.
I'm on N8013.
I saw the half-way leaked version of the kitkat on the general post but it says no word if it fits for anything else but N8000.

I have installed and running Gnabo ROM V1.
It is a great ROM , it seems that on my N8013 if you take away the fact that my WiFi does some 'lags' everything works simply fine.

Please tell us your ability and experience flashing roms? Using cwm/ twrp recovery. Do you know and understand adb? Have you ever flashed a device and know how to backup before doing so?
The above efforts MUST be something you need to understand Before you Flash anything.
The note tablet is to expensive to go flashing without knowing how to get back and recover if you have issues.
With the above said.. The issue with the stock 8000 rom and the leak is Bootloader . Changes your tablet info to look likes its a 8000 instead of 8xxx . In the past when the Stock firmware for your device is released you have been able to get back to the correct version for your device. BUT WELL BUT We or nobody can tell you for sure..
Again read read and think . Most important read the threads and post from people who have went back to 4.1 stock for there Device.
I know my post may sound Confusing. If so DO NOT FLASH your device.IF you know all of this already Sorry for the post. Just dont wanna see a help I'M
BRICKED POST from anyone
Good Luck..
ohh im on 4.1 rom Tweaked by me For my own use. I do not make roms for public use because i'm Not that smart or have time to help with issues .And most on here would not appreciate pink purple and floral UI.. Giggles.

Very thanks for your warning!
I'm well based by switching ROMs in my last 2 phones and few others some times..
My new GN tablet is only rooted so this would be my first one..
I'm of course gonna nandroid backup and read the special instructions before switching.. the big reason for this long post thread is to save me precious time of trying each of any ROMs and testing it..

I understand..
For me with the Note 10.1 and even my note 2 phone. I bought it for the s-pen capability. For me i have tried many roms and yes each has there own advantages. Not saying nothing bad about any of them. As i have took some small pieces from some Like frame work changes for my Slightly modified Stock. But I still think for the Note line .. Stock is the best solution for those who bought it for the s-pen and muli window Real work able tablet i think Stock or VERY Near is Best.
The Developers on the note devices have much more to deal with then many others due to the S-pen features and they are awesome at it .
Have installed the Gnabo ROM.. Looks cool.. Let's hope it won't makes me troubles

Hello mcjordan,

Especially: works the s-pen apps (s-note, handwriting)?

I actually reflashed the stock kitkat version linked by some 1 here..
It seems to be more stable and has the default stock tw apps.. I actually prefer the old s note app over the new one so now I have both..
Also got back the defalt samaung keyboard which has the ability to handwriting recognation.. Gnabo didnt have it..
