Based upon my analysis it's device dependent and the majority of those devices are locked bootloader before the nougat update or before the november 1 security patches.
So devices with November security patch are not compatible, right?

You cannot exchange drm keys. They are unique for each device. If you try to use other keys or backups you will almost for sure brick your device.

You have been warned.... i can upload mine later but i guarentee it will brick your device
One thing guys, after you get your ta backup file, just be sure the file is 2 megabytes, else repeat the process again until the file has the correct size.
I had to perform it twice, cause first time i run it gave me a 0 bytes file.

Mine is single sim so i wont share it with you, but it is 100% certain you will brick it. It is well known for years that flashing a different TA backup will do this. And i do not mean a soft brick...you may as well just put the phone in the bin now if you are really considering flashing a ta backup from a different device

MM 6.0.1
TA backup tool needs to run into android 6.0.1 (dirty cow is fixed in 7.0)
You can always downgrade, do the thing and apply nougat again.
I think is a really good thing to have the choice to restablish the phone to its original state at anytime, though it would be a pain in the ass to be downgrading and reconfiguring all again, im too lazy.... Thts why I waited for TA backup before nougat update.

Yes everyone now knows that unlocking the bootloader breaks camera, but strangely not with the elves and t-rex stuff, as I was still able to take pictures as long as those filters were on. I just clicked on the t-rex picture in the widget. I really think this is a bug and not related to sony software or else why would pictures of t-rex on my desktop computer still work? running the.34 uk unbranded firmware on C6903.
Also worth noting, I forgot to yank my 64gb micro sd card, and it isn't erased.
Timeshift also work, but it's not really news, Doomlord has posted it before somewhere

Please how can i bring back camera fonctionality with my unlock bootloader no backup ta partion .
Don't know if there is a way but as a warning to everyone else, you should always backup your TA partition before messing around with the bootloader. In fact, it's so easy, that you should back it up even if you don't.

But it is compatible? Now try but could
So, what do you guys think about this update? Is it really worth it? Curious to know.
The biggest reason for me to change was to get Remote Play to link with my PS4. Also, the applications button is now shifted to the middle of the bottom edge. Other than that, I haven't noticed any huge changes that blew me away.
Remote Play is pretty cool though, tried it out for a little bit last night and it was good enough to play Call of Duty campaign mode.

Well, technically, it's not such a big deal, to swap kernels/ramdisk with an unlocked bootloader. It's a simple edit. But, at this point, it would mean unlocking bootloader, and losing DRM keys (still not sure what functions besides some lost advanced camera functions, not that anybody uses the camera anyhow except for skype).
Under the old rooting, it used an exploit to modify ramdisk, (and install the necessary apps), without unlocking bootloader via an exploit.
As for me, I will wait a couple weeks and see if there's a new exploit. If not, well, I will do the above method.

Basically DRM keys are used to see if you have unlocked the device (in the past). So mainly for Sony to check if your warranty is still valid.
There is a tool that will backup your DRM keys though, and can restore it too. You just need root for that (just downgrade, root, backup keys and upgrade again) Just Google Xperia DRM backup and you're bound to find out
Hello to everybody!
::::: A FEW WORDS BEFORE YOU ASK 100 TIMES THE SAME ;-P :::::
It has been told widely in these forums that permanent root on LB is impossible due to Verified Boot process implemented by Sony (and now by other vendors. Future for LB devices seems to be "Live root" approach). What we would like to achieve is temporary root privileges using some exploit in order to backup the TA partion, for warranty purposes and for complete stock DRM restore.
THIS ARTICLE IS A WONDERFUL ENTRY POINT IF YOU WANT MORE INFORMATION[/B]
Guys, i am very proud that we could win user zxz0O0 for trying out abilities to use the CVE-2015-1805 security vulnerability to get temporary privileges for i. e. backup of TA Partition of our Xperia Z5/Z5C/Z5P.....
For those who want to know a little bit more of what about we are discussing/ testing here:
Android Security Advisory — 2016-03-18: https://source.android.com/security/advisory/2016-03-18.html

German article from t3n.de: http://t3n.de/news/google-android-sicherheitsluecke-691418/
CURRENT STATUS:
- ZXZ0O0 HAS FINISHED HIS WORK +++ Release for Z5/ Z5C/ Z5P coming soon!
You will need to flash build 32.0.A.6.200 kernel or lower!
LET US THANK:
- ZXZ0O0 FOR HIS AMAZING EFFORTS AND HIS PASSION INTO THIS
- IDLER1984 FOR HIS TESTCODE
- FOR TESTING ZXZ0O0's BUILDS: NINESTARKOKO, RIMMEDA, NILEZON AND ALL OTHERS IF I FORGOT SOMEONE

Well, we got Linux Kernel 3.10, which is affected by this exploit. This could make root possible, but we have to know how the root app is called ?

Good morning to everyone!
Just a few minutes ago on the way to my workplace i just found an article about the CVE-2015-1805 security issue.

Is THIS what we all waited for to get root on Locked Bootloader? Is here maybe someone who is able to say something about these articles?
Or maybe it is even worth to be evaluated in other device's threads to get people in knowledge of this "security issue"?
Full of hope that someone here is able to workout something on this base, Greets and cheers....

In the other thread they Talk about CVE-2016-0819 and CVE-2016-0805 which affects specially snapdragon soc's......
The articles which i found are talking about CVE-2015-1805......
I dont think that we are talking about the same. CVE-2015-1805 affects possibly every Kernel Version 3.4, 3.10 and 3.14.....
If Sony already has fixed the 2015-1805 even while Google itself "forgot", could you tell me where i can find Information about a fix By Sony?

Simple: I just tried to patch the kernel, and found it has already included the fix.
The patch exists since mid-2015, it's just that devices were recently exploitet using this regression, and Google reacted.

I downloaded the source Code of the 32.0.a.4.11 build and compared the pipe.c File with the fix commit and the fixed version in the 32.1.a.1.163 build.
The result was that the older Version is Not fixed.
I also thought one hour ago of asking zxz000 Team.....
If we can win them it would be great!!!
I asked few minutes ago in two z3 threads for help.....
I hope so much that someone will be able to make something finally.....
How about dm-verity? How can you pass this?
You can probably get "root" using this exploit but it will only be temporarily and you can't write /system because of dm-verity. So the only usecase I see is to backup TA partition.

In my opinion ta Backup is more than nothing for the Moment.....
Maybe if all of you professionals like Tobias.waldvogel and monx and you of the z3 community are working and thinking together about it then it will happen one Day?
You see i spend all my free time on searching for abilities and holes to use......
But due to my very basically knowledge of programming i am not able to implement something on my own.
Edit: my idea was to achieve root By this hole, then get a prerooted and DM verity disabled kernel before Reboot..... Isnt that possible?

You cant flash any other Kernel beside Sony Original Kernel on Locked Bootloader and with dm-verity enabled its nothing you can do to root LB Z5. The only possible way is to unlock your Bootloader but with locked Bootloader you have no Chance as you cant flash any modified Kernel. We only archieved Root on Z3 because it has dm-verity disabled in Original Sony Kernel.

you cant restore your ta backup on unlocked bootloader. So you are in the start point. Unless you get something to disable dm-verity you can not get root on lock bootloader
You can "restore" drm keys on unlocked bootloader now. I dont get it why do you want to backup them so much? You can have all drm features working on UB.
Hi all,
I receive a lot of private messages about root for Nougat from this website:
http://www.androidinfotech.com/2017/06/root-sony-xperia-xa-ultra-nougat.html
DON'T CLIC ON IT, IT'S A CLICBAIT!
I never released anything for Nougat so please don't ask me why it doesn't work, it's only a scam to win money from ads.
If you can't find my work on Xda you will not find it anywhere.

Me ? I never said to go back to 6.0. Maybe it's your fault because you forgot to exclude TA parts of the firmware or you didn't used the fsc script or you used an old version of Flashtool? I downgraded/flashed my devices many times and never got any problems.

You quoted wrong person. If you flash an older kernel over a new firmware, you get bootloop. I had that too.
I really wish I could do such coding to compile both boot and recovery because XA Ultra is really awesome, but you have to catch up with version.

Yeah, that's really unusual.
It hasn't been long since I joined the Moto Z Play development and since then I was worried about the EFS. Because it's complex here in the SnapD Chipsets. So what I did was do an adb backup of the EFS partition but that's a lil tricky thing and trust me I couldn't have just enough faith.
So if you wanna backup the easy way. Download the attachment.
1. Put it in SD Card.
2. Flash via TWRP.
3. You'll see the options yourself.
It enables you to make an EFS(IMEI) backup and you can choose to store it on SD card or in the internal storage.
Just decreasing the access time for people here.
Download it from HERE.
Cheers guys! Happy flashing. ?

How did u manage to do that ? Can u please give a detailed guide ? Which ROM did u use ? My XT1650-03 IMEI is 0 and I don't have a EFS backup to use, I would really appreciate if u could give me this help, thanks in advance.
This working only when you lost the IMEI but the IMEI SV is a real number (for example 08) and you can call someone or use internet with mobile net ... The ROM is specific which Bootloader do you have, before you flash another ROM... When you get a Upgrade with the Bootloader Version, you can try the newest Factory Rom (with OTA) which you can remember, before you flash the other (Fastboot)ROM. But before you make it, you don't use the command for flashing the Bootloader in Fastboot Mode. Notice the Data from "fastboot getvar all" always and you get back your Phone easier to Stock Factory Status.
For a detailed Guide, look in my other previous posts, thanks.

Careful: that your currently installed ROM can't read your IMEI does not necessarily mean that it is lost! Most cases of lost IMEI occur when people think their IMEI would have been lost anyway and then overwrite EFS with wrong things.
can i flash it on my moto g5 plus..?
Well, backup is no problem, but restoring ends in a lot of errors. It's nothing urgent since I wouldn't have ever noticed that of I hadn't checked IMEI but still something that just should work
Does it work on Moto G5 Plus?
