[DISCUSS] Unlock your Xperia Play boot loader ( ROOT is now possible ? )

Hello,
Sony Ericsson now made it possible to unlock the boot loader of your Xperia PLAY!
Go here for instructions on how to do so:
unlockbootloader.sonyericsson.com/instructions
It is possible to unlock the boot loader for certain releases of our 2011 Xperia™ phones, such as Xperia™ arc, Xperia™ neo, Xperia™ pro and Xperia™ PLAY. Your phone has to fulfill a number of requirements, for example, you can’t unlock the boot loader if you have a SIM lock protected phone.

Update 15/4: There were reports of a brick after updating on a Xperia PLAY with an unlocked bootloader, be carefull with updating.
I am not responsible for any damage / bricks that may have been caused during the process.
Cheers.

Nice, that actually worked!
Edit: A little word of warning tho - this WILL factory reset your phone, so all settings and installed programs will be lost.

And what is the actuall advantage of unlocking the bootloader ?
Does that mean i can remove stock apps ?

what about those of us who have locked sims

For now it means we can root the phone, which I am attempting at the moment. And yes, with root, you can remove the stock apps.

windows (win 7 ultimate 64bit) tells me the android_winusb file isnt the right driver.
Any tips ?

and so it begins....
and by the way it won't work with sim locked devices.

Why does unlocking the bootloader allow root can a phone not be rooted without a locked bootloader?

With the unlocked bootloader, you can install the root easily and without having to use or find any exploits first. That said, it is possible that some exploits will eventually be found in the play that allow rooting even with a locked bootloader.

perfect answer have a thanks

Certain pre-loaded content on your phone may also be inaccessible due to the removal of DRM security keys and the secure user data partition while unlocking the boot loader.

same here, unlocked the bootloader and it reset the phone, since then tried loads of various methods to root, manual exploits can't even get into a recovery mode doesn't seem to be one even with adb reboot recovery..
pushed su and busybox etc not having much joy at the moment.
ive a feeling the rom dump will have to modified and flashed... but what flash programs do we have for the play will the X10 one work?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000012
for the arc wonder if it will work on ours?

What if I unlock the sim lock on this then can I unlock the bootloader?
Anyone with a simlocked phone tried this yet?

so i suppose there is no point in going ahead with this at the moment.

forgot to backup syandard driver and uninstalled it before trying to install the driver SE provides... reïnstalling android-sdk and somehow it can't find java now... I recommend not to use the SE .ini file
Edit: succes!

Can anyone tell me how to find out if my mobile device is sim locked?

Try a different sim?

You will now be asked for drivers. Point to the usb_driver-folder where you placed the android_winusb.inf-file, and select the Android Bootloader Interface-file. If you are not asked for drivers, and your phone starts to boot as usual, it is not possible to unlock the boot loader on your phone.

[TOT] Reset RCT (root check tool)

Hey guys,
So I bought a new LG g3 32gb D855 few days ago and rooted it then few days later noticed that it somehow
has 2gb ram (1840mb) instead of 3gb as should be in 32gb version (BTW somebody else have this issue??)
Long story short because it was rooted device the warranty was not valid anymore so in order to unroot it
I download a suitable .KDZ file from
csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=[YOUR_IMEI]
and followed this guide(tnx hyelton!)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
I was able to successfully unrooting the device BUT in the LG hidden menu (3845#*855#)
in the LG RCT it was saying it was rooted (and had a date stamp)
I was looking all over for away to reset the RCT but without any luck and then I saw this thread (tnx somboons!)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2715114
Where he was able to reset his RCT (ON A G2!) by editing the /persist/rct.cfg file and replacing the /persist/rct file
since I didn't had my original /persist/rct file I DIDN'T took the risk and didn't tried it.
Then I was lucky enough to run into this thread (tnx k0nane!)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41136026&postcount=2
explaining exactly how LG's RCT is working
basically after reading it I understood that RCT flag our rom as rooted if it finds one or more of these files
/system/[bin,sbin,xbin]/su
/sbin/su
/data/local/tmp/su
/system/app/[s,S]uper[u,U]ser.apk,
/data/data/com.noshufou.android.su
/data/local/tmp/[s,S]uper[u,U]ser.apk
/system/[bin,xbin]/busybox
/data/local/tmp/busybox
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
right after the first boot after reflashing your device (and then it also stamp that date in the rct.cfg)
Realizing that one of these files are still exist on the device the solution was to find and delete them!
my RCT display result was
Rooted
Rooting related file had been installed.
>busybox
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
(soz don't have a screenshot)
So basically what I did is connecting my G3 to my PC and starting to search what and where are the exact files
causing my device to be flagged as"rooted"
I discovered that the only file that exists from the list above is
/data/local/tmp/busybox
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
then I was able to delete it with the following command
adb shell rm -r /data/local/tmp/busybox
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
after it was successfully deleted I reflashed the device again and WHOLA! it was fully unrooted!

As I was expecting at the first boot after reflashing it was unable to find any of the "root relating" files and because of that it didn't flagged it as "rooted".
Hope I could help someone :angel:

Thank you very much for that, I didn't even know LG had such counter. Now, I am surprised you say your warranty was void after rooting your device. Do you know it for a fact, or is it an assumption ? I live in Europe, and unless proven otherwise any hardware related issue should be covered by the legal warranty (2 years here), unless LG thinks that your rooting of the device may have led to the issue, of course.

I just flashed a new rom and it showed not rooted. via LG flash tool.

Lucky u ☺ in my case some busybox files left in the system after reflashing ?

When you were unrooting, did you use Normal or CSE flash?

Normal. I preferred to find a solution before trying CSE flash

good job.
thanks.

Edit: this was really helpful I'm unrooting my G3 when I get home so I can post it up for sale. Now time to root my F460

U can try the "restore" option in the lg pc suit

I'll also give that a try, I'm not new to bricking my phone, but I'd rather avoid it if I can. It's usually a pain to fix, but I'd rather risk a brick and be able to root than have no root.

So does this open for if one is rooted but want to flash a new OTA just to unroot via Superuser then execute command in OP to delete restovers... this would enable device to accept OTA without the known error?

I followed this guide to unroot to install new OTA software and worked fine, before this I had the same issues in the hidden menu, but followed this and all was fine

With Super Su it takes just a 5 second to unroot.

Yes! Exactly what I needed because all those super smart store reps know exactly where to look to find that I've rooted my devices.

Sorry to bump and old thread but it seemed better to post here than start another on the same topic. I have a problem with the camera on my 16gb D855 and need to return it for repair. Phone has previously been rooted but now restored to stock via a kdz with LG flash tool and the LG RCT shows the following under the display result option "Official [g3:LGD8552504204a:5.06]" Is anyone able to interpret if this is showing that the phone has been rooted or not? Thanks for any help.

That's great, thanks for the reply.

OMG thank you soooooo much man
I was searching literally everywhere for this!!!!! Thank you!!!

Hi there, i have this issue, so when i go service centre for my phone crack issue, they said i am not under warranty anymore due to modified.
Can i use the same method to remove the modified as well?
But curious that when i use the root explorer, its showed me that my device is not rooted??
Pls advice..thks...
Sent from my LG-D855 using xda premium

my result is
Official
{g3........}
is it will affect my warranty?

Help, have I been hacked? Kinda urgent :(

Ok guys, could really do with your help here.
I have an unrooted n9005, which recently had an earpiece fault.
I took it to my local repair store, who took it and said come back in an hour.
After I went back, I found that someone had installed mobomarket on it.
The owner of the shop said it wasn't him, but I can see from the unlock log that it happened for sure whilst with him.
Ok, so I figured what harm could that really do, but then thought to check further.
On rebooting to the odin download screen (vol home and power), the Knox status is now 0x1.
This means they rooted it right? Or is it possible to trip another way?
However, it now isn't rooted (testing using su in terminal) and the firmware status on the odin download screen shows as "official".
My question therefore is, is it possible to root the phone, install malware then unroot it, leaving the malware still active?
Or does the fact the download status show "official" instead of "custom" mean this isn't possible?
This is kinda important as if there is a possibility the phone is compromised, I need to call the police but obviously don't want to do this if the guy is innocent.
(I could for example accept that he used the phone without permission to play something or whatever, and whilst not ethical, I don't need to worry about having to wipe this phone)
Thanks guys, your input would be much appreciated as I intend to go back to him tomorrow.

The shop denied they did anything to it.
The real issue is can it be infected or does the boot loader have some sort of checksum protection? That's all I really care about for now...

Just remove any funny apps you found.
If in doubt, just perform a factory reset.

It's more important I know if my data could have been compromised. For example Google chrome accounts etc...

Safest bet is to always assume the worst. Change all your passwords.
If you have proof, I would also report it. Either to a consumer union if you have one, or to the police. Such practises are usually forbidden by law.
This is why I never trust independent repair shops. (It also really doesn't help that the ones here never speak Dutch or English, and are always run by immigrants)

I've now found an app called mobo daemon on the phone too. Sigh.
So just to confirm, to do a secure wipe, I use odin and reflash the whole Rom?
I need to erase the internal sdcard too? (So basically lose everything on the phone? )
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Do you have a bill or something like that? Did he tell you what he have done?
Tripping knox lowers the value of the device and some knox related features are now unusable.
Maybe the shop used Mobo to backup your data.. that means contacts, accounts and so on.. you can trust him or not.. i would tend to distrust him

He said he didn't run anything on the phone, just checked the ribbon for the speaker.
Swore he didn't do anything else.
Now maybe he didn't, but someone looked through ask my gallery, and installed this app.
It's a crappy situation.
So I guess the phone isn't safe.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Can someone confirm, if the phone is rooted, the system status will change to "custom"?
And if flashed back (So root removed) this would clear any malware?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

I'm on 4.4.2 and rooted, but system status is official (my knox is 0x0). Used towelroot then (it's been a while since i rooted).
I'm not a wizz, but tripping knox usualy happens while rooting, when unrooted afterwards you cannot acces/see anything they might have installed/put in the root of your device.
I would do a full wipe including sd card, just back up the things you absolutely want to keep like pics etc, and follow advice in #6, just to be safe.

If the shop guy reflash official firmware after rooted the phone it will show official again.
You could flash twrp, wipe everything then reflash official firmware if that's going to make you feel more secure

Went back there today to ask to see the security cameras. Shop has 5 - 3 point around the area, 2 focus directly on the desk (where the phone was supposedly the whole time).
Surprise surprise, all the cameras worked except those 2. Went to the stall (it's in a mall market) as they have one that points at the store. Again, camera not working.
I've got the phone back now (and rooted it) to have a look around on there, but honestly I'm not sure what I would be looking for.
Now though, my Download screen status says "Custom" (I assume because it's rooted)
Now am I missing the point here, but if it said "Official" before - this means it had to be a clean flash? (in which case it's impossible for any malware to be on it?) - or can it still be infected? And why would they flash it back anyway? Maybe get off all the password data then remove root to hide tracks?
Thing is, I am trying to download the official ROM to reflash, but I'm on a 128kbps connection and it's going to take days.....

Righty - been through everything and going by the "Unlock log" - here is what seems to have happened:
15:17 - Phone handed into store.
15:22 - They start playing around with the gallery
15:25 - Go into settings and enable USB debug mode
Phone now shows no use (so I guess this is when it is being rooted) until:
15:47 - When suddenly Mobodaemon is installed onto the device
And then no access until:
16:22 - Which I assume is the time it took Mobodeamon to copy across everything and perhaps flash back?
Then no access until I get back at 16:57
So from this, I'm guessing they did a complete backup of the phone using Mobodaemon - so have access to every saved password on the device. So now I'm going through my Google Chrome listing to see which are the most important ones I need changed.
Actually one thing that puzzles me, is they didn't have very long to download the official firmware to reflash it. Mine is the HK model which is 1.5GB, even the fastest Thai connection has issues with over 300K/s.... curious!

They probably already had the official firmware ready to flash, assuming they perform this kinda 'repairs' more often.

http://mobo-daemon1.android.informer.com
Doing a quick search on Google i could see that the app is used to wirelessy manage your contacts etc etc but for someone to use the app the phone and pc need to be connected to same WiFi network.
What did you have the phone in for repair?

Yeah, or just plug it in via USB.
My plan now is this.
Copy all of my photos and music and data from the phone to my PC.
Use Titanium Backup to backup just the settings of some apps which i dont wnna lose (not the apps themselves, as I assume they could be compromised)
Install the TWRP as suggested and choose "Wipe" - which means the whole phone will be cleared right? Including the internal SD.
Re-flash the official image - install the apps from the app store. Root the phone again, re-import the settings using Titanium backup.
Then turn on phone encryption (this can be done on a rooted phone?) and set a proper password.
And I should be all good right?

This method worked for me, so thanks to OP.
As fastboot oem get-bootinfo shows the Bootloader as unlocked.
I flashed a Chinese TWRP from the guide I found elsewhere here. It definitely boots into TWRP and everything works inside TWRP, albeit in Chinese.
Unfortunately, I'm now in a TWRP bootloop and can't get out of it.
I don't have a stock ROM/recovery to re-flash, so I'm hosed until one appears online.

Is it useful to try it without an recovery image available? Some other user tried it and is in a bootloop now without the possibility to recover.

I also slashed beta-supersu, using the Chinese twrp. I didn't reboot in between flashing twrp and supersu. Maybe I should have.

Thanks!
Works perfect for me

Yes. Though mine seemed even more complex. I couldn't boot into the bootloader that way.
What I found is that via some combination of volume/power keys and having power plugged in or not, I finally:
* did a boot into safe-mode
* discovered I was rooted
* used to to install ROM manager
* rebooted, out of safe mode
* ran ROM manager
* rebooted to bootloader
And then did what dukey said.

strange i have tried to log using facebook button but it keeps sending me the '"Sorry, you must use a phone account to submit this application."'
any ideas?

The .exe linked in the first post is not required to determine the product ID. It can be determined using universal code *#*#1357946#*#* (which returns an 8-digit code as expected)
Further, the .exe linked in the first post does not get a clean bill of health at VirusTotal - nothing definitive but not clean. Anyone planning to use it to generate an unlock code should use reasonable caution, sandbox the application or (better) run it on a disposable VM.

So I wanted to root my Honor 6, mainly because for Adaway.
This one click root actually worked for rooting(first time got hung up maybe because I lost wifi connection for a while?) but worked when I run it again. The uninstalling got hung up too but it worked after second try I think.
This root wasn't enough for adaway for S-On and S-OFF I think, so I had the bootloader unlocked, got clockwork recovery and tried to root with HONOR Multitool. With multitool rooting with SuperSU it says I need to update SU binary, and I couldn't figure out how to do that. Then I tried rooting again with this one click and it now the Adaway works too so yay and thanks.

This one click root actually worked for rooting(first time got hung up maybe because I lost wifi connection for a while?) but worked when I run it again. The uninstalling got hung up too but it worked after second try I think.
This root wasn't enough for adaway for S-On and S-OFF I think, so I had the bootloader unlocked, got clockwork recovery and tried to root with HONOR Multitool. With multitool rooting with SuperSU it says I need to update SU binary, and I couldn't figure out how to do that. Then I tried rooting again with this one click and it now the Adaway works too so yay and thanks.

IMO kingroot is terrible.
a lot of adds and pop up, and it's so unclean.
I've tried to remove it, can't.
I've tried to replace it with SuperSU, can't.
I ended up flashing a new rom to get rid of this.

Yes, i kinda agree with you. It cant be replaced with other root app ( i also tried many times) but this is most likely fastest and easiest way to obtain root acces with honor 6. I havent seen any adds or pop-ups while using kingroot doe. I just deleted purify and disabled all i didnt like in kingroot settings.

Its ok and it can easily be removed and replaced with supersu. Either through terminal or by apps like supersu me.
If you cant replace it, you didnt search enough.
/edit
Ok, Honor strikes again [emoji23]

I have replaced it with other phones, but with honor, it just doesnt work, it just removes root but supersu stucks abd doesnt grant sudo access. Kingroot itself isnt that bad but supersu is awesome.
Not quite a developer yet, trying tho

Easy way to root HH6​No Computer needed, just one simple apk and about 10 minutes of your precious Time
1st step: Own Huawei Honor 6
2nd step: Download and install This app
(Remember to allow unknown sources in settings)
3rd step: Launch it, it will say "not supported" but gives you a chanse to give it a go anyway. So do that. It will start rooting. App may close several times but it will not crash. Just open it again from " recent apps" and it will roll again.
Wait for 100% and rooting is done.
Posting pics soon.
You are welcome

As in instructions, it says device not supported BUT it gives you option to try anyway. And it works
