Sony Xperia S SGPT 121us - Miscellaneous Android Development

I just bought this tablet but am thinking about selling it. I was able to root it but cannot find any Custom Rom's or CWM or TWRP for it. Can someone help am I missing something. Seem's everyone just skipped over the S and went straight to the Z tablet.
Thanks in advance:fingers-crossed:

The reason that there aren't any ROMs or anything for this tablet is that it was made by the Sony VAIO team not the Sony Mobile team.
There isn't any custom recovery images or boot loader unlock available. Its why there were no custom ROMs for the Sony Tablet S either.
I'm selling mine also, wish I had known beforehand.

Chinese Android Phones can you flash?

i want new phone unlocked because my g1 is slow but i was curious if there was a way to know if the chinese android phone is flashable and using which rom? and which is a good phone to buy ...

It hasn't even been 3 hours, there's no need for a bump. Also I don't think those cheap knockoffs can be flashed but it's possible. First you have to root it though which is probably possible with one of the "one-click root" apps. Actually flashing one is a bit more involved because of hardware differences. Next time just get the real phone instead of a knockoff, save yourself some headache and heartache at not being able to do everything you want.
i actually have a g1 thank you very much handsome
Well then take out the "next time"s from my previous post and I stick by it. Knockoffs generally aren't that great. Getting the real version from a store is better, even craigslist or ebay.
I rooted my galaxy note replica with bin4ry it worked perfectly as for flashing i have flashed a few things but to flash a rom it would be harder because i have found out i would have to port the custom rom to work with my device.

What did I miss? Why the assumption that the OP is talking about a "cheap knock-off". Maybe he means a Huawei, or ZTE or something.
Rooting android from China
Ok, i don't know if this is the right place to ask this question, but i'm desperate. I want to flash my phone that i recently bought in China, but i'm getting no where. The problem is that i can't find recovery mod that will work on my phone. If someone have any idea what recovery mod should i try, please suggest it to me.
I'm using Samsung Galaxy Style Duos I-8262D.

It will depend on the device you have. You should search xda for your device name, but if it is a cloned device, you may not be able to find anything, because some clones are not well supported.

[Q] Custom ROM Compatibility

Is my Motorola Xoom Supported?​
Hello, i am getting a motorola xoom 32GB wifi only UK model for christmas. Being me, im not planning to stay on stock for very long, in fact more like 10 mins
However, i have one bugging question before im confident enough to apply a rom and unlock the Bootloader.
Will my Xoom (being a UK model) support Tiamats roms? Ive heard conflicting reports saying yeah because its the same hardware and no because of the model, but i just need 1 definite anwser from a user whos tryed.
If its no, then will i have to get a US firmware for it? Is it even possible?
I have experience in android hacking and have done so with my Sony ericsson Xperia x10.
Thank you in advance for spending the time to write a post.

[Q] Root for Moto Razr V XT885

Hi all. I don't want to come off as a total noob, but I'm sorry if I do. I have a Motorola Razr V XT885 with Bell Mobility in Canada. I've searched the web for a way of rooting and unlocking the bootloader on my device and have found little to no help. I know this isn't a popular phone as it's only available in Canada and some parts of Asia, but is there a way to root and unlock the bootloader? From the sounds of things there isn't a Jellybean update coming any time soon and I would really like to flash a custom rom on this thing. Any help would be appreciated. thanks.

I figured out how to get custom recovery, you download Boot Menu Manager from the market it works perfect, I managed to boot up a XT910 ROM on it but lots of bugs as its not for our phone, just need a smart person to make us up a ROM
Worked for my XT885. Thanks

Wouldn't it be enough to flash a stock rom which is not pre-rooted?
Anyways you can't re-lock the bootloader so it'll never be "like brand new"
But neither I have an idea of how to do it
Just wanted to let you know, what my thoughts are and see, if you knew, that bootloader can't be re-locked
But I was thinking I could do something like this: (Can´t post website....) Anyway I searched for "How To Unroot and Remove CWM Recovery on Asus Transformer". He unroots his transformer tf100 with two files.
The problem is that I need other files than he uses. Where can I find these files?
There are unroot tools in the play store

Flash stock rom with twrp and it will remove root and replace twrp with stock recovery.
Select your stock rom based on your bootloader. JB rom for JB bootloader and ICS rom for ICS bootloader.

[Solved] The right ROM for E6553?

Hi all,
I'm trying to find the right Cyanogenmod ROM for my new device... I'm back on stock ROM after trying one that didn't work (the phone was not booting at all anymore, thanks Flashtool for saving me! ).
The thing is, all the ROMs I can find for Xperia Z3 are for D66xx... Mine is a Z3+ (I didn't pay attention to that when buying it... My fault here) E6553. Any suggestion? Can I install a ROM for the "regular" Z3 D66xx?
Thanks.
Hold on... I keep searching while looking for an answer... Would the Z3+ and the Z4 be one and the same?
In which case I'm not in the right forum category... I'll take a closer look at the Z4's.
Well for anyone running into the same problem... That phone was sold to me as a Z3 and it turns out to be a Z3+ / Z4, the ROMs for Z3 are not compatible with it, look at the Z4 this will solve your problem. I now have CM13 currently booting on it
