Hey, guys! Hope you're having a nice day! I'll cut to the chase now...
Now, I wanna downgrade my Xperia L from android version 4.2.2 to version 4.1.2. I know there already are quite a few threads on this topic but, I am completely new to all of this. I've tried following those and many other threads but have not been able to accomplish anything so far. Ha! I don't even what some of the terms mean.
Thanks for your help in advance,
Pranav

Running Android ICS 4.0.3 and Build Number IMLL74K.US_epad-9.2.1.21-20120413
Every method of rooting I find has nothing to do with ICS, could someone help me on my marry way, I would really appreciate it. I just want to do a basic root, so that I can maybe change the kernal and pep up the CPU a bit.
Help would be rewarded :-D
ViperMod in the Prime form works for all but the latest firmware otherwise you have to downgrade first
And for future reference search first and questions go in Q&A not themes and apps

Sorry about posting in the wrong forum, I should know better, but I have tried downgrading and it does not work, it seems like once you are on 4.0.3 you are stuck. I just tried this method right here and got nowhere, it says nothing about an update being available...

Thanks and I did thank you, I am trying this now, I am guessing I want ICS .11, since that one is still rootable. I am trying it now, I cant believe I got this it was already on 4.03. Why do people upgrade just to upgrade... jerks.
I will let you know how this goes.
I think .17 is rootable with ViperMod also or you could just do Wolf's method 3 which let you install the recovery blob via abd and flashing the su afterward with cwm
Yeah, I actually went with the .11 Blog backup, and then rooted it without any problem at all, now just what to do, what to do... I do appreciate everyone who helped out, thanks much.
its stock, but updated to the latest ota update was 4.2 i thiink?
anyway its been sluggish and annoying to use and i was going to format everything and start over fresh, i figured i might try a different rom.

i dont really know much about rom stuff, but i can follow directions and what not, but looking at the dev threads, i just dont know what im supposed to do or which guide to follow. any and all help greatly appreciated.

Hey guys im a newbie here, Im sorry to bother you all but any sudgestion if what is the reliable and stable custom ROM for xperia j?? thanks in advance for the answers
Welcome!
If you wanna try out some roms, play around, you should check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-j-e/general/xperia-jst26i-roms-kernels-mods-how-tos-t2237164
I tried almost all of these roms, but honestly, I always got back to the stock roms.
CM10 from freexperiaproject is stable, works pretty well, I got it on my J for a month now, and I really like it!
You should try it! Cheers!

You will need this: cm-10-20131224-FXP-jlo.zip
In my opinion stock JB is the best so far.
If you only remove bloatware from system and install custom kernel it will work very well
Best ROM threads are not allowed on XDA
Please head over to the development sections and try them out for yourself

hello guys,
dont get me wrong im digging the new android, its faster and easier and better looking than the old ones.. the only thing that is terrible is the battery consumption..
so i know you guys have tutorials on rooting my device therefor making it cleaner and that could also mean uninstalling some google stuffs could longer the battery life..
now i just read about other mobile OS's than iOS/Android/Windows.
but it isnt that easy..
i would love to install ubuntu touch or something similar on my device.. i can imagine them being pretty serious about their stuff as it is with PC Software from them. althouugh i cannot find anything on google about compatibilty or how to install on exactly this device.
anyways, help and words would be hardly appreciated..
cheerss
There is FirefoxOs
http://fxpblog.co/firefox/nightly/
PS: Our device is Eagle
hey thanks for your reply, are you using the Firefox OS at the moment or do you have any experience with it?
Do you think the whole handling of my device will improve?
i can easily let go of syncronisation and stuff like that but my main intention is to root and to have a cleaner mobile overall..
cheers greetings

I'm not using FxOs and i never used it, but i can teach u how to install.
Your bootloader is Open?
if it's Closed, can u open it or it's locked?
BL is still closed. i never did a thing on that sony until now...
played around with the samsung galaxy xcover and rooted it while back...
tutorial would be appreciated a lot. i think i once had one but iim not sure if its the right one.
would you recommend FFOS though?
oh and do you suffer with hiiiigh battery loss after the lollipop update on your sony m2 aqua?
(and did u ever try iit underwater.. i dont think this works^^)
cheersthanks for ur help
The best rom is experience z5 for your device. I have this installed an the battery drain is perfect.
Her is the thread

I Heard that it's equal to kitkat, but i realy don't know.
If u want to flash it, just unlock bootloader, update it and use the tutorial on fxpblog

sounds interesting. is this getting updated ??? like actively supported or something?
cheers
If what is improved then making the dev update. It is important that you stick to the flash's manual and the APN manually enters.
First, let me apologize cause I've got no clue where to post this so I'm sure it's gonna be in wrong place!!!
I have a T337A & have been looking to update it to Marshmallow 6.0 for a while now! I've been through tons of threads but can't seem to find it! Is this because there isn't an update or am I just not looking hard enough? Please help!
Thanks a bunch!

The last update for the SM-T337x models was Lollipop (5.1.1), and no developers have ever written any custom ROMs for these models...
I guess these models just weren't very popular...
I'd be willing to try even a custom kernel because the 2 that we have have been running pretty slow now... :good:
Try my rom It work on the SM-T330, SM-T330NU, SM-T335, SM-T337T(milletltetmo) & SM-T331
