There's no fix to unlock bootloader problems
Return to stock or use AOSP 5.0.2 with locked bootloader.

AOSP doesn't requires changes in kernel
Since we have a kernel made from ASUS for 4.3, 4.4 and 5.0, any AOSP ROM from these Android version will work with stock kernel and locked bootloader.

You can install AOSP from fastboot, since it's an img file. But you have to unlock bootloader to install GApps via TWRP.
After flash all you need, you can flash stock recovery back and lock the bootloader.

Tnx but didnt find answer there sir, i mean if there is a new upate like 4.3 or 5.0 is it possible to update it officially or not? I am rooted and unlock bootloader w/o CWM
If i were to flash it,is it ok to flash it directly after flashing a custom recovery?
Sorry for many question. Im a sony Ericsson user before thats why im confused with a different method.

Best way is to flash the full new rom (4.3 probably) in fastboot, reroot, restore apps with Titanium Backup and you`re done. Flashing a full rom is better than updating an excisting one imo. Link for how to flash stock rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312.

Yes, it is not hard. Just follow instructions and you should be good
Fastboot:
- Power down the phone, then
- Press Volume down + Power button
That`s it

You can be on stock with no mods unlocked rooted with a custom recovery and you will get the ota update and it will install fine.
The ota update link will be posted here before you get on your device so it's good to have a custom recovery so you can just flash it and it will also protect you from losing root or custom recovery

3. once rooted, backup TA partition
4. flash latest 4.3 via sus, pcc, or ftf
5. unlock bootloader
6. flash custom kernel with recovery
7. boot to recovery, flash supersu update zip
8. reflash original 4.3 kernel
9. restore backup TA
10. enjoy 4.3, root, locked bootloader with intact drm keys!

It would be the same...
However you can also flash Doomlord's 4.3 kernel, then boot to recovery and flash the super su zip for root. The kernel from the leaked 4.3 rom seems to be the same as the kernel from the latest update.
Recovery is lost after going back to stock kernel. Root works.
The root works but Mobile Bravia Engine 2 still lost.

Hi guys!
Im trying this method now but I dont have stock 4.3 kernel. Anyone has it? Upload please coz Im stuck now
To Flash only the kernel from the new rom,
In the flashing options, exclude all (right box) except Kernel.

Yes, root works like a charm but you need to unlock bootloader and flash advanced stock kernel from .256 leak cuz it have recovery and flash the file from attachment, then you must revert to stock kernel and lock bootloader. Voila!

I can't unlock bootloader Orange locks bootloader and anyone can unlock. Then I am looking for method without unlocked BL. And I want to flash kernel from JB 1.257, root and reflash kernel from 4.3. But I'm not sure it is safe.

please don't try that !! it's not possible to use 4.1.2 kernel on 4.3 , it may brick your device .

Please help! I've went through every single page on the rom thread with no answer. No one responds to my posts either.
I'm running this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/rom-custom-stock-lp-g2-d800-d801-d803-t3025479/page42
I tried to restore my cloudy g2 backup but just get stuck on the LG logo. I've also tried the TOT thing to go back to stock, but it just stays on 0% in download mode when I go to flash it. I don't know what to do.
You flashed the KK bootloader right? Then you must return to JB bootloader to can boot on CloudyG2 or other ROMs.

I didn't flash any bootloader. When I bought the phone it was already on kit kat so I don't know if that makes a difference?

When you rooted your phone and installed TWRP you didn't used Autorec?
What steps you followed to install that ROM?

We think you have to change to JB bootloader in order to make other ROMs to work, like CloudyG2.
But you need to flash the bootloader for your G2 variant, @AbdulrahmanAmir gave you a link for D802 bootloader but if you don't own a D802 then don't use that bootloader, you need one for your g2 variant.
EDIT: I see you have D800, here you can download the JB bootloader for D800 http://blastagator.ddns.net/bootloader.php
Anyone know of a way to root 23.5.A.0.570 from within the ROM?
Of course you can create custom firmware with Flashtool, but is there other way?
Kingroot is useless at the moment.
Hi,
I've upgraded from Lollipop to MM yesterday, but with TFT rom, without root.
Then: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/development/kernel-advanced-stock-kernel-t3347413
But only works with unlocked bootloader.
I've just unlocked my bootloader and installed this kernel using ADB. But, FULL WIPE in my Z2 :'(
Don't know if was the kernel or just the fact to unlocked the bootloader.
Anyway, make a full backup

Its because of the Bootloader u unlocked.. Unlocking bootloader first time will erase ur all datas..
And there is no need to unlock ur bootloader. Simply go back to KK or LP then root it and install recovery. After that flash a pre rooted MM rom.. Simple
And i think after unlocking bootloader u have lost some Sony features.. Did u make ur TA (DRM) Key backup..??
Why do people think it's too difficult to downgrade to another version of Android, root and install a rooted android mm zip thought recovery?

Are you using Xposed? because after many re-flashes and reinstalls on different things, I think, that for me, few of the xposed mods were causing the loops. For example I miss the immersive mods in games etc and I simply can't get it to work correctly as it was, no matter what I try, so different xposed mods related mostly to that were causing the loops for me. I am currently reflashing at the moment

Oh crap, I knew it, but in the Sony developer's website doesn't show this information...
About DRM, I know I have the backup, but I don't know where, lol. Anyway, in the same topic, there's a procedure to recover the features.

So u want to root ur MM right?
Well u can simply downgrade and root it along with recovery. Then backup ur drm key using TA Backup tool from xda. After that u can flash a pre rooted MM rom

I already have rooted marshmallow but now I want to unlock it
My phone is having issues and i dou t its cuz of the custom rom. I wanna try fixing sumofem by downgrading to stock flashable marshmallow rom or lollipop. So if u guys could help me thats would be great!
I cant flash back to stock by fastboot cuz my bootloader isnt allowing gpt while to be flashed so thats the reason i really need a flashable rom.
Even if i flash back with fastboot. I can only downgradd to 6.0.1 and when i do the camera isnt working alomg with the flashlight.
So fastboot downgrade isnt the option for me. What i need is a stock or only a lilbit modified custom rom based on the stock one.
Thanks in advance
