Question Looking for official XQ-BC62_61.0.A.23.20_Customized US - Sony Xperia 1 III

I'm looking for a copy of this firmware release. It's the last Xperia 1 III Android 11 release.
Tools like Xperifirm and Emma will only give me the Android 12 release.
It was available here, but there aren't any more mirrors: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=17825722713688254698
If anyone can upload a copy of it, I'll even tip you.
Many thanks.

Sony put it in the Open source archive. Here:
Open source archive for 61.0.A.23.20 - Sony Developer World
developer.sony.com

Hey there, thanks for the help.
I was looking for the built release by Sony for flashing on the XQ-BC62, not the source.
Sorry about the confusion.

Oh, I see that now. It's late here. You can check this out ....BUT idk.
Xperia 1 III XQ_BC62 61.0.A.23.20 firmware with Setool.rar | VietNam GSM Services
vngsmservices.com
With Sony removing software with updates, a archive might be a good idea.

Awesome, many thanks. Unfortunately, I can't get past the paywall even though I paid (isn't working, he's not responding). Halabtech seems to have every recent version but that one, so guess I'm playing the waiting game. If you happen to know of any other sites, I'd appreciate if you threw them my way.

Here's a copy: https://drive.google.com/file/d/15EhKdzxhXouKzJRdKDwwj6f3uglfqIkn/view?usp=sharing
I zipped up the one I had backed up from when I rooted my phone, luckily I saved a copy just in case.
I don't need a tip or anything, but it would be great if someone could back this up somewhere, especially since it seems like the Android 12 release for this model is really buggy.

I backed it up, done. I was thinking of starting a thread for rooted Android 12 to compare bugs after root. This would depend on device type and Rom.

If I use this on my UK phone will it still work or is it going to need the Customized UK version
edit for anyone else curious: Yes it works fine

Guys, I really appreciate the help with this. I've downloaded a copy, many thanks.
One of the problems I have with Android 12 is the assistant just going in and out. Sometimes she responds, sometimes she doesn't, no matter how many times I train her. On Android 11, she works perfectly fine.

[Q] Help would be appreciated!

Hi there, and let me introduce myself. My nickname is Phantoome and i'm new to Android.
I'm coming from an iPhone 3Gs and wanted to try something different.
I ended up buying the Sony Ericsson Xperience Mini Pro SK17i!
It had everything i needed untill i unboxed the phone lol
No seriously, i dig the Android os. Pretty neat tbh.
But i wanted to start modding some stuff about it!
Like first of all removing the factory crap, maybe try a decent theme..
But i've seen all those terms and all for example:
- ROMs (Custom firmware?)
- Flashing (Don't know this one for sure.)
I read i should be rooting the phone to be able to get root access,
or getting a different Android version (ROM?) to make it speed up and look nicer.
I recently figured out that MiniCM7Pro should do the trick for me.
I just don't want anything usefull to be having issues (like the camera, flash, gps, reception, etc..)
So i was wondering if anyone could be having some tips for me here?
Like good tutorials or something, because i noticed there are 100s of them and i don't know where to start really..
I ended up here, which made me end up here to root it first,
Now i'm not sure what to do next as i don't want to brick the phone.
He states:
- Root
- CWM
- Only 2.1.1.A.0.6 SE firmware
- Baseband: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you not 2.1.1.A.0.6, you need to flash FTF file via FlashTool.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Should i flash the .ftf file he gives, or the stock firmware which i downloaded here (Also from this board somewhere)?
And i'm not sure which baseband i got either, don't think we use that alot here, never had issues with that on my iPhone either.
Update: I have successfully rooted the phone.
Now i think i have to downgrade (Flash?) the sucker.
ROM is the Android itself, in common words (anyone correct me if any mistakes).
Flashing: I think I won't be able to explain that.
And you are in the wrong forum. This is Xperia X10 Mini Pro, and you bought Xperia Mini Pro (without X10, they are different models in almost everything). So ask there and you maybe get a better answer.
Holy crap, how did i not notice? I'd move this thread if i was able to..
But if a mod spots this, move it if you can. I'll await reaction untill then.
Update:
I managed to get CyanogenMod 7 to work on the phone, guess Android wasn't that hard, thanks for all the nice people to help me xD
Only thing that's not working at the moment is my hardware keyboard after i've been in a 4 hour bootloop...
Maybe in a few more hours i get the keyboard to work and i'm at where i want it to be
Update:
Got the hardware keyboard to work! Aren't i a good self learning Android Student! ^^
Now one small thing left.. Getting the hardware keyboard to work azerty style instead of qwerty.
It's only partially now, as my numbers and symbols don't match the layout yet, AZQ&W do.
Update: Works!! And it only took me an hour and a half to figure out thanks to this topic.
Any moderator seeing this, this thread can be closed forgood. I've been succeeding on my own in one day.
Guess Android isn't that hard after all. You just gotta be patient and accept to learn new things.
In 24 hours, more or less.. Coming from an iPhone and haven't even used an Android in my entire life, i:
- Rooted my SE Mini Pro.
- Unlocked my Bootlock.
- Flashed to Cyanogenmod with the help of the FreeXperia tutorial and ROM.
- Fixed my Hardware keyboard input.
- Fixed the language settings of my hardware keyboard.
- Got proud of myself.

Thanks for reading this silly and yet informative thread on how a total noob took the selftraining course in Android.

[Q] Available roms for the Cube U39GT?

I am planning to buy one of these tablets to tinker with. After some searching, I found the following rom alternatives:
http://www.arctablet.com/blog/forum...-firmware-version-1-04-test-version-20130723/
http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/91121-tempestu39gt-roms-v0001/
http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/89434-custom-firmware-from-4pda-based-on-stock-104/
Do you know of any other worthwhile rom to try out, or are these three all that's available?
Anyone?

thanks for sharing, gonna try the TempestU39GT
There's also 1.05 multiwindow rom that some say is better than stock 1.04, download is here :
rom
Do not buy the Cube U39GT-3G version of this tablet, I ordered one from http://www.cube-tablet.com and it came with a wrong IMEI number. I cannot use any SIM data card because of this with this tablet.
I bought the Wifi version, so I am not in danger. Thanks for the warning though, it certainly speaks of extremely crappy QA.
racht: anytime, and thank you for the link to 1.5.
It seems like another rom might be on the works:
http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?8204-Are-there-any-worthwhile-roms-for-the-Cube-U39GT
Apparently it will be based on stock 1.04 instead of 1.05, but if it comes to completion it might be worth it to try it out.

ROM has been uploaded yesterday but the dev doesn't own a U39GT. So anyone willing to test can do it now
I can't believe that slipped by me. Thanks for the heads-up. :good:
http://www.arctablet.com/blog/forum...2-custom-root-firmware-version-1-06-20131123/
This looks promising as well with 1.06 Cube firmware update and AOSP launcher.
New original Cube firmware 1.06 is downloadabl from official cube site.
http://www.51cube.com/ch/DownShow.asp?ID=205
I can recommend Google for translating the chinese, you can download the ROM from baidu which could take a few hours.
Awesome, thanks for the heads-up.
They require registration to access the downloads? Dammit, I refuse to create an account just to go and download something. Do you have an account there, locutus2000? If so, would you be willing to mirror it somewhere?
I was able to fix the IMEI issue, so it is safe to buy, again. The support from the vendor was not helpful, the wrong IMEI number is not only wrong for me but for all of the sold models. They all have 111111111111111 as IMEI number, no big deal with the MTK Droid Tools I was able to load a new IMEI, that was generated from an internet site. It works with the SIM cards now.
Important to know: the Cube 9 Talk with the 3G SIM card uses MediaTek MTK8389T CPU whereas the Cube 9 without the SIM card 3G feature uses a RockChip RK3188 CPU. The ROMs are not interchangeable.
So whatever issues you may have, it may be a completely different story for the person that owns the other chipset. Strange enough that Cube built two similar products with completely different hardware.
The Cube U39GT 3G ROM Version 1.03 for the 3G version can be found here:
http://www.51cube.com/ch/DownShow.asp?ID=206
If you have donwloaded and unpacked the firmware, you may end up with chinese folder names. Flash tool did not accept the scatter file when I tried to select it using these folder names.
To resolve this: Simply create a new folder name and copy/paste the ROM of the Cube to the new folder, the update should then work with the Flashtool. I have used Version 3.1328.0.183. The update takes a while so be patient. Worked with mine.

[Q] xda or other ROM for LG G Vista?

Am I missing it or are there instructions to root and instructions for multi-boot but no ROM for the LG G Vista, please?
I've searched and read through a bunch of threads but nada ... so far.
Will any of the ROMs for other LG G-series phones work?
Thanks!
Wait ... I just looked in About phone and it says this is a VS880.
I just got this from Verizon.
I'm seeing the VS880 referred to as a G2 and a G3 on the Internet - what is it really, please?
It came with Android 4.4.2, kernel version 3.4.0+, and our son rooted it for me earlier today.
Just in case any of those details help ...

They are the same thing. One is the internal name while the other is normal users name of the device. As for roms make sure to do your reading up as the device is pretty locked down.
So, you are saying that there is no ROM anywhere for the LG G Vista/VS880?
Is there any reason to believe that anyone is actively developing one?
There are so many sites touting Rooting as a pathway to loading a ROM it seems odd there there is not one.

It takes more then root. You need an u locked bootloader or a way to bypass a locked bootloader like safestrap or bump. Most developers that make roms only make them for devices they own.
The bootloader bypass has been solved:
http://www.unlock-bootloader.info/mp3-0/lg-g-vista-6569.html
The LG G Vista/VX880 is "free" on Verizon with the $16/mo Edge data plan & has a nice big display.
I have my Samsung Tab4 7" tablet for sale as I don't need it now that I have the LG G Vista/VX880.
There are ROMs for the models all around the LG G Vista/VX880 - it's hard to believe that LG made that phone so radically different from the others that tweaking an existing ROM to port it would be beyond a developer.
Sure wish I had the skills ... sigh.
It's not really that. It's most developers seldom do ports. Let alone for devices that don't have. After looking at the spec is not a bad mid range device. But also remember that. Most carriers in the world are GSM carriers and very few work on cdma devices.
There are plenty of Tuts on how to port. Could be something you could look into
Back to this ...
Modified request: Is there an app/hack that strips-out all of the Google stuff, especially their backdoors & data-leeching?
If no one is going to build a custom mod - which seems apparent - it sure would be good to have a clean machine onto which to then install carefully selected apps.
Thanks!

Simple answer is no. You would have to build a rom from source and then remove alot of the Google based code. There is a project that is working on it but you lose alot of functionality.

Cannot the functionality be restored via privacy-respecting alternative apps?
What about an app that monitors the bad behavior of the Google code than cannot be removed and blocks execution of data-leeching & activity monitoring?

Not completely no. Many have been trying over the years. Your biggest issue is the device your using. Once that is taken care of you can try and build something but like I said alot of the stuff is built directly into the os.
To be honest privacy is an illusion at best now a days. Every thing monitors what you do. From credit cards to social net networking. It is all made to get as much info as it can about a person. Even carriers do it. It has even come to light that Verizon can monitor the apps installed on a device.

I can give some pointers that I had to work through if you have any questions, or have not gotten any help since last November.

Many Many hours wasted on Google,Bing,ect. I haven't found anything. I have seen where some people refer to this as the same as a G2 And others but it's clearly not. But yeah wish someone would put something out. Agreed. I have however figured out how to get Viper4Android and Dolby Atmos to work. So if anyone is interested in knowing how that's done hit me up. All you have to have is root. NO custom recovery. Haven't seen a post on how to do that either? I still have 8 more to go before I can post lol.

question about rooting

hi all,
if I root my phone, what I will lose apart from camera?
Is there any working camera for rooted devices? Whatsapp camera/Instagram camera will work?
I've bought this phone just to root it and I figured out I can't

Hello, I'm sorry for my redundant question.
My only biggest fear is that developers stops supporting drm fix so when a new update become available, people who rooted their phone will be stuck with old software version.
I don't know if this ever happened, since it is my first sony device.
So if anyone could report their experience with drm fix support over time it will be great
However, I found a tool over here called xperifix. I may give it a try
If you have doubts about rooting your phone it certainly means that you shouldn't do it. Otherwise if you want to do so that bad just stop updating your phone when support stops.

You don't lose anything using xperifix or Jan Jan kernel. I don't think we lost support so easily, Xperia Z2 was supported until latest stock firmware, XZ is still being supported on last current firmware. But like nick0s23 said, if you have fear.. Think it twice.

Anyone have a copy of the "Aurora.N7.Port.v2.1_data/sms fix for Sprint" or "Aurora.N7.Port.v3_data/sms fix for Sprint" files?!

IS THIS FORUM "DEAD" or something?! I've been BANGING my head against a WALL for about a month now trying to fix an apparent "Sms over Sgs" function being disabled on my N910P running LineageOS, if I use anything but a stock OS I'm not able to "send" SMS unless I switch to 3G. Does anyone possibly have the following files kicking around? The links to them are dead everywhere I've looked. That or any other bright ideas? Do I need to flash the baseband again after installing Lineage or something?
Aurora.N7.Port.v2.1_data/sms fix for Sprint
Aurora.N7.Port.v3_data/sms fix for Sprint
Hya! So I am in the same boat... I am trying to do research... So far I have not been finding anyone with answers past the N7 Port. I cant even seem to be able to install the ROM cuz I am on Q15 Baseband. I udnerstand that you can't downgrade once we committed to the latest.
I also am having huge bluetooth crashes. Trying to keep attached with my FitBit and keeps dropping.
Lets see if we can find some answers together!
I tried the download of the SMS fix for Sprint and flashed it but doesnt seem to work.

Think I've tried them both already, I've gone around in so many circles it's hard to keep track...
I have learned one key through my digging, seems most things need to "match" the same generation for the OS used.

Unfortunately those links were dead the first time I tried them a few months ago... Thanks though. The only real shred of hope I seem to have left is an older post that someone apparently flashed the baseband files from the last OS that "worked" and they got things functioning on the newer OS. Now I just have to figure out how to flash the baseband separately from the OS?! I think I can do that with Heimdall?

I thought we couldnt go back from the QI5 firmware... or did I miss something?
This really seems like a super simple solution that shouldnt be this hard. It really must be a software problem. I am super aggrivated ... probably like you.... that such a great hardware platform is being rendered so inefficent. There are no new phones that have the ability and versitility of this platform and I am committed to keeping this hardware for years to come. I dont need it to do a lot... I just need it to do the few things I require of it! I am thinking of starting a new thread in the sprint forum to get some current and collective knowledge of the best setup available for the N910P
