HI
Noob here. I have recently bought a Sony Experia Arc S and would like to install a custom rom. The main reason is to bypass the home and back button and have screen ones instead.
Can anybody put me in the right direction?
Thanks

Do not flash it.
If you do so, you're going to overwrite important images for your device with another ones. This will result in hard brick. And its hard to unbrick your device when its hard bricked. So I highly suggest for you not to attempt this.

No worries.

First off. Dont double post. Second off do your research. You may find something for your device but then again you may not. If you want something for it then by all means dig in and learn to do it yourself.

Agreed, he should have done some research on this.
@bridgecarson2007 on the top of the page you will see a small, search box and it states "Search for your device" click it and enter " Sony Xperia L" wait for it to pop up and click it.
I would then suggest you to go through the general bit and look for tutorials and guides in getting set up.
Then proceed. But before you ask questions use the search function as there is probably a good chance your question has been asked and answered. If you don't find any then post it in the Q&A section. And please specify your problem in the title and don't just put in "?????".

De-Odexed ROMs are ROMs with minimal or totally no bloatware at all. Odexed ROMs are more like Stock ROMs that have no changes except having root access in it. Click here to know more about bloatware.
Super-SU Mod is an app that provides root access to rooted phones. Click here to know more about SuperSU.

Sorry, but I think you're oversimplifying the difference between odex and deodex way too much to the point that it loses all meaning.
For a really good, simple write up on the difference between odex and deodex, see this article.

imo, LG G4 doesn't have a fingerprint and that's a deal breaker.. i'd say go for Z5 even tho the camera is better on G4.. but it's not a problem for me since uploading to instagram or snapchat doesn't use the original quality

SuperSu is the app which manage root
SuperUser mod is the Services.jar modified, so you can flash XZ System UI or apps not signed.

Follow this tutorial.
I dont know if this works on Nougat.
how do i update from E6653 .4.3 UB with TWRP to Nougat and keep root ? and how to DRM fix ? i am familiar with the procedure but i need instructions to follow!
Hey Guys
I just got a new xperia Z5 Dual (E6683)
I want to backup my DRM KEYS,
Please post the lollipop firmware download link for my device..
Hi,
please help me. I bought a z5 DUAL (6633), unlocked, and i m in Europe.
i need 5.1.1 but the phone came from the box with 6.1. I searched roms for downgrde.
I tried different roms (clean installed, with flashtool) :
1, middle east and africa
2, india
3, malaysia
All resulted at the first screen when i must chose the language "unfortunatelly the process com.android.phone has stopped " . I pressed ok many times, to get through, because i saw it on youtube, but it powered off every time.
Now i put a 6.1 back, and all is working.
My questions:
is there a working 5.1.1 rom for central europe for 6633 ?
why asian not work?
is there a modified or slim rom but 5.1.1 ?
I can send the phone back to seller, when it does not work witt lollipop, than i buy better XZ dual, because it is nit heating and is a one year newer modell .
Please help ! Any advice is welcome, because i have not many days to send it back if it is a better choice to give it up with havint a phone with 5.1.1 and buying an XZ.
Thanks!

AFAIK Sony-RIC (there is also DM-Verity) is a kernel security which checks that file system contents/integrity is not modified then allows the system to boot properly. If any file has changed it will stop the boot process and may need to re-flash...
So this is the reason they prefer it "off" if they need keep a modified system (i.e. rooting)
Hi guys I'm Pretty sure that what I'm going to ask has been already discussed. I've noticed that my upper speaker is louder than the lower. Is there a way to fix It? I have the original ROM (tell me even if there are solution that requires root and similari). Thanks guys!

Hi, I am kinda new in this field, so don't judge me by my question if it sounds silly.
Now my question, I have a mi a1 and I just want to install sony xperia's app like the album & music app etc into this phone. so do I need to root with twrp or without twrp?
Also, I found this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_JeYrF8yJ4, so can anyone confirm if I follow this method then will it be unlocked n install twrp in my phone or not?
I hope to get some help here with proper guidance. Thanks.

WoW, modded apk, I wonder why I didn't search for that as well in this forum.
Much thanks to you.
BTW: though my purpose has been served, still, out of curiosity, can you explain briefly, what is TWRP & what's the difference between root with TWRP & without TWRP in a simple manner?
