Bugs: You tell me..
READ CAREFULLY:
Ok kernel: You will get a corrupt kernel in this rom simply because kernel devs use the latest NDK release to make kernels. This in turn corrupts the wifi and Bluetooth. So to fix this you will install the rom and then go download either V4.2 or V0.6r from samno's kernel page it has to be those two as only none + kernels will work with this. Remember you must let your phone boot and you must set up your phone before flashing Samno's kernel to fix your wifi and bluetooth.. Remember also that the kernel must be a 21D kernel..
THE FILE SAYS VERSION 1 BUT IS ACTUALLY 1.1 I FORGOT TO CHANGE FOLDER NAME!!
Download Link: https://hotfile.com/dl/155052526/288e9a2/Typhoon_Version_1.zip.html
About theme or themes i have found that i cannot make everyone happy with my choice of theme. So instead i have decided that from now on all my roms will be stock. But good news is i will make a video soon on how to customise your own UI with UOT kitchen.. Keep an eye out for that too ..
How to install:
Before you even start you must make sure you have any V20 baseband or any V21 baseband.
1. You must be rooted to root there are plenty of guides that can be found in the general section please have a look.
2. You must have CWM installed guides can also be found in the general section.
3. Switch off your phone.
4. Once turned off hold the power + Volume down key together till it turns on then let go of power whilst still holding the volume down key.
5. Once in CWM you must wipe everything.
6. Install the new rom that you have downloaded from your SD card.
7. When installation is done restart and enjoy.

I'll have some

meemo you're on fire with these roms mang! keep up the great work

I flashed this over the clean rooted chinese V20G, and when I try to turn on Wifi it says "Error" and obviously doesn't work. I wiped data, cache and Dalvik cache when in CWM, flashed the zip and rebooted. I also had no APN's. I'm currently reflashing it, and if it still doesn't work, I'll download it again.
Edit: re-downloaded, same problems. Maybe it doesn't like the chinese rom?

I like... Thanks.

Erm did you read the READ CAREFULLY bit at all or did you just click download and install it blindly? i have placed a bad kernel on purpose you need to start it and set it up via the lg setup then go to samno's kernel page and download his V0.4.2 or V0.6r and install the kernel that will fix everything your Bluetooth, WiFi etc.. I am sick of people not reading is it hard to give up 5 mins of your time to read things or has technology blinded us humans badly? Oh since you will not read you need a 21D kernel but without plus maybe + works too try and tell me..

It does, unfortunately. I read the whole post a few times, but I can't explain how I missed that paragraph every single time. If I didn't know any better, I could have sworn it wasn't there before. Sorry about that, honest mistake.

great job as usual mate...will test and report back
EDIT:wifi is not working
glad to see battery status is working

Your reading skills are outstanding mate well done you earn yourself a gold star, where would you like it on your forehead?
I used the 20A from Argentina which is 2.3.6 and used all the apps and framework from 21E to make this otherwise you will get Argentinian shizz...

meemo consumption with regard to the battery are improved? also wanted to know if this rom has no ghost call as the original Italian 21e, thanks

The rom is not depended on ghost calls it's the baseband flash either V20G or V21E first as kdz to get baseband. Or get the fls files from the kdz and use smart flash to flash V21E or V20G baseband and use any rom without ghost calls..
Anyway soon i will make a V21E rom might as well wait if you don't want this one..

My biggest problem is the battery, not the ghost calls. I am interested in a ROM in which the battery should last longer than others, so I asked if the 21st improved fuel consumption, thanks anyway

I don't see it on the Titan thread.

possible bug?

thanks for the default theme by the way... it looks clean as it is

[Q] GSM support for alien rom on xperia J

[Q] Is there any way to get GSM network to work on cyanogen based Alien rom, in xperia j?
I just rooted my Xperia J 4.1.2 (.31) yesterday and went ahead with AVD which supposed to be based on stock xperia rom. But unfortunately its was a bit buggy. SystemUI.apk suddenly stops working and many apps kept crashing on me .. few other roms like slim were asking to be downgraded to ICS which i dont want to... then came Alien rom to my rescue. this rom is really clean not to mention the Acid Audio ENgine and stuff ...T____T I so badly want to keep this rom its ****ing perfect..!!! if only if the GSM would work, which while installing i didn't know that no cyanogenmod 10 based rom has GSM support !
Now i'm whining here because i just want someone more knowledgeable than me to give me the confirmation that that i have absolutely no other choice, other than going back to the AVD. LIke the GSM fix for the ICS baseband is there positively NOTHING out there for JB :crying:

You need to downgrade to ics first, then flash any cm10 based rom, or gsm.will not work.

just one more doubt...

getting out of alien rom and reinstalling AVD i screwd up and soft bricked my phone.
SO i had to use a pc to reflash the stock JB. BUt that has locked the bootloader again coz the PC companion can detect my phone again.
so just need to confirm certain things...
SO if i flash stock ICS then i will have to unlock my bootloader again right...? I presume i will have to root my phone too all over again... ? before installing the rom ?

PLease HELP!!!
Ok this is sooo irritating...!!! T____T
I flashed my phone with 4.0.4 ICS, st26i_11.0.a.3.18_global.ftf form Matej X's 4shared folder.
http://www.4shared.com/folder/25Mb7Dws/Xperia_J.html
the ST26i_11.0.A.7.5_CE.ftf from that folder when put into firmwares folder of flashtools, doesn't even show up !!!
i figured to root st26i_11.0.a.3.18_global.ftf from this guide http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2033114&highlight=st26i+root+ics
but not inspite of downgrading to ics, when i installed MIUI5 rom i'm i'm getting no simcard ad hense GSM is not working all manually scanned networks are shown as "UNKNOWN" !
Now i have flashed back to stock ICS rom...
when i flast the stock rom using flashtool the simlock.ta file gets ignored. what's up with that, wherever i have read about its not supposed to be a issue...
Can someone help me this is really getting frustrating....
Can some one help me find the link for ST26i_11.0.A.7.5_CE.ftf ICS stock rom which will be detected by flashtool...
MIUI5 was really nice, I would like to use it. Its based on cyanogenmod10 fxp 226 ... My issue with that is i use the instruction here to install it, but its condusing.
https://sites.google.com/site/projectfreexperia/download/howto-install
It says "6.Wipe device
from cm9 device wipe is necessary only at first flash or when you switch cm version
!!! if after boot you experience ForceClose then is recomended to reboot to recovery and wipe device
7.Partition format
is not recomended to format your partitions unless you are advised to do otherwise"
Now in CWM what do i have to wipe...???
There are too many options to wipe....
1. wipe data/factory rest
2. wipe catch partition
Under advanced
Wipe delvic catch ...
Which and all am i supposed to wipe ?
Please bare with me guys i'm at my witt's end here...T____T
I just want one CM 10 based rom working for me... That's all ...

Here's the thing mate, AlienRom works perfectly fine for me. Just flash over stock ICS and Not JB and select Use 2G network on settings. Give it another try , oh and I highly discourage MIUI, it may look pretty but it is lag as hell. Browser takes sooo long to load and so lag

Hey Racer X,
I was thinking about the same thing... Alien rom is the only rom where i encoutered absolutely "0" lag, Brilliant work there man thanks a lot.
Would it be possible to flash it directly on rooted 11.0.a.3.18 ICS because i'm not able to root ST26i_11.0.A.7.5_CE.ftf with any tutorial here...
SO far i have tried this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2071817
and the other option being flashing to stock 11.0.A.7.5 and using Unlockroot.exe
But windows won't even detect the exe file and Google chrome's calling it a malicious file and won't let me download it .
SO i have sort of hit a roadblock with 11.0.a.7.5
So i was hoping i can flash alien rom straight on rooted 11.0.a.3.18 ICS, which i rooted with this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2033114&highlight=st26i+root+ics

Omg...!!! I did it ... :d
OMG... I just went ahead and did it... this is sooo f****** AWWWWSOME...!!!
Now i have Alien rom with GSM WORKING !!!:good:
I didn't even go for 7.5 i just stuck with .18 and went to alien rom 4.1.2
BTW can i keep the cyanogenmod upates setting to weekly or should i keep it at manual/???
I don't want to loose the gms connection just coz it updated on its own ... ?
What do you think ?

I know it is an old build - I tried to update to the latest 2.7.xxx but it has been giving me constant errors.. It flashes perfectly fine on my XT925 with this version of TWRP.

Thanks for the help, i tried twrp, i flashed miui but still crashing every 2min...

Interesting.. I never had that happen.. I wouldn't say it is a fluid and ultra stable experience, but can't say I had any FCs or anything other than random freezes on the gallery....
What caused me a lot of performance issues was the Xiaomi download engine and the rom felt overall much more resonsive and fluent after I disabled it.. maybe you want to try that.. just go to the "Downloads" app => Settings and disable the Xiaomi Donwload engine/manager.
It will warn you about bad internet speeds.. just ignore, the opposite is the case =)
good luck

Hum, I already tried that i was thinking my problem was solved but 15min later, crash, crash and crash ...

Flash another ROM... [emoji38]

Why should i flash another rom ? I only want MIUI and this is the only rom which had it.

I couldn't understand the question clearly .
Could explain it to me??!
If the WiFi didn't work after flashing the latest firmware I think you should Check the ftf file maybe it's not for c2105 (or you mobile model) COZ I read that the different between these two devices is just networking, So get the suitable one for your device model(if this was the question)

At first everything was working fine in original firmware ,
Even after flashing cm12.1 everything was fine,
once updated to cm13 later there is a problem of wifi and bluetooth sometimes it works fine and at some point mobile will reboot by itself later on both wifi and bluetooth doesn't work (They cant be turned on)
I re flashed original firmware,

Try this it may work:
First of all try to change the ftf file (download other one)
If didn't work flash this boot.IMG via fastboot on stock ROM just on stock ROM.
After flashing it flash the kernal and Fota kernal from the same ftf via flashtool .
As I told you flash it on stock ROM then flash the kernal and the fora kernal

Thanks to @Joel16 for the link
I mean by kernal the kernal in the ftf exclude everything while flashing in flashtool except the kernal and the fota kernal

I'm having the same issue. But it started out of nowhere, so I'm guessing its a hardware problem.
After it happened, I flashed almost every kind of ROM and Kernel around here. Nothing worked.
Also I flashed the official Sony's firmware for my country and it still not working.
Tried the PC Companion's repair function, didn't work too.
When I try to turn WIFI on, I get a "fail to load wifi driver" message at logcat.
I'm not new into flashing ROMs, so I'm almost sure it is not a system issue despite the error message I get.
