A: Sony Mobile has provided a tool to let you do this. Get it from http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/. You may void your warranty, so read everything carefully. - Q: How to flash custom ROM?
A: You can find custom ROMs for TX from this XDA forum section. There are ROMs for T/TL/TX/V there, so pls choose carefully. - Q: How to enter Service Menu?
On the phone dial pad, enter this *#*#7378423#*#* You can remember this better as *#*#SERVICE#*#* - Q: What is touch firmware 'a', 'b' and 'c'?
A: Xperia TX has 2 different types of screen. Units with touch firmware 'a'/'c' is using the 'No Air Gap' technology. Units with touch firmware 'b' is using the OptiContrast technology. Units with OptiContrast technology have a better display quality, especially in the viewing angle. More info at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010335 - Q: How to find out my TX touch firmware/screen type?
A: Go into the 'Service' menu. Choose 'Service info' and 'Software info'. Only applicable to ICS firmware. In Jelly Bean firmware, this info is no longer available. It is still possible to find out the screen type, by looking at the screen under a bright light or sunlight. If you can see grid of lines or circuit on the screen, then it is 'a'/'c' No Air Gap type. If no, then it is 'b' OptiContrast type. FTF LinksHow to Calibrate the Battery» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « - Charge your phone to full 100%.
- Drain all the power on the phone until it dries up and turn off by itself. You can play videos, songs or games, anything that use the screen and speaker.
- While the phone is OFF, charge it until it is full 100%. DO NOT turn on the phone now.
How to know if it is full? When the notification light is green, just press the power button (don't hold, or you will turn on the phone), it will show a battery image. When the image does not have a 'lightning bolt' on it, then it is full. It seems like for JB firmware, the battery image does not change even when it is 100%. It'll all depends on your estimation now. - After this, turn on the phone.
Recommended Apps- Recommend your apps and I will list it here.

Hey, I only found out today that the built-in Xperia keyboard has gesture input, like Swype. Any of you using it?

QUOTE(ericmaxman @ Feb 14 2013, 12:52 PM) - Not sure if its the phone's problem or skype, but everytime i launch Chrome, Skype will close  Chrome for Android is a memory hog. The OS needs to close all other running apps to free up memory for it.

QUOTE(SuggieBliss @ Feb 16 2013, 10:10 PM) Hi, does anyone know how to save "camera apps" (downloaded from the Play store) to the "external sd card" ? I've tried and tried, and it always saves the photos to the "Internal memory". Only the Sony Camera saves to the external sd, but all the other camera apps save to internal sd... Anyone know how to change this?? Thank you  Some camera apps can let you choose 'save location'. If an app does not have this option, then too bad...

QUOTE(ericmaxman @ Feb 17 2013, 01:54 PM) Sony is awsm. Already managed to stream movies/music/pics off my TX to the LCD TV  How long can you stream thru MHL? For me, every time I stream movies to my TV, it will disconnect after around 20-30 minutes.

QUOTE(burning @ Feb 22 2013, 09:40 AM) Wonder... Does TX support OTG USB? If yes... does it work on Samsung OTG cable? Normal USB OTG cable will work. I tried with keyboard and mouse on USB hub, no problem. Its kind of funny to see a mouse cursor in Android. Samsung OTG cable? Some Samsung cables are not a micro USB connector.

QUOTE(droidtrix @ Feb 22 2013, 09:49 PM) It looks like Sony need to release a few more versions until the firmware is stable for use. Just look at how many 7.0 (ICS) versions there. While Xperia T is still on first JB release: http://www.ptcrb.com/vendor/complete/view_...m?modelid=21834No wonder got bug.

After some research, I found something  about this PTCRB site. Xperia V users received their official Malaysia Jelly Bean release yesterday. http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2488908/+616The version number is 9.1.A.0.490. Xperia V's model number is LT25i. I did a search on PTCRB site: http://www.ptcrb.com/vendor/complete/view_...m?modelid=22367None of the version numbers there match the Malaysia JB version.

QUOTE(AmeiN @ Feb 25 2013, 11:41 PM) Why this picture again? Anyway, if you look closer at the right-side phone, you will see a black spot on the bottom of the phone, near the 'XPERIA' words. What is that???

The XDA link on this discussion was already posted in V1 thread.
Personally, I find that my 'c' screen looks fabulous. Maybe I have not seen a 'b' screen yet. But I am not too eager to find a 'b' screen and do a comparison.
Right now, the only thing that I want is JB. A stable one.
