32.3.A.2.33 pushed - Xperia Z5 Compact General

32.3.A.2.33 is being pushed to our devices
Didn't "see" it via phone settings, but immediately discovered via Xperia Companion.
the version 32.3.A.2.33 is 7.0 (Security Patch 1. March 2017)
Kernel 3.10.84-perf-g1016077
Firmware + rooted boot.img thanks to youvedone

how did you go? what has changed?

I do not think that it is 7.1. It might be just February security patches.

has to be more than security patches considering how screwed up the nougat release is.

Unfortunately, I'm still getting prepared for the update (backing the phone up, downloading the FW. My network connection isn't perfect at all for now).
I'll let you know as soon as I get any news
The update is quite large, so it might be 7.1 (but can't be sure.. the chance it's just bug fixing along with February security patches are very high)

Unfortunatly the rootkernel_v5.32 gives no twrp for this version.
So the version 32.3.A.2.33 is 7.0 (Security Patch 1. March 2017)
Kernel 3.10.84-perf-g1016077
But have to say again: My Z5 Compact was never as good as now with 7.0 (E5823_32.3.A.0.378_R3D_1298-7782_Customized-NOBA | with root)

from what I've discovered: as soon as the phone is ready to play music in the head/earphones, it vibrates. I mean the regular corded 3,5mm ones.
Previous releases displayed emerging/disappearing audio icons in the top status bar multiple times and you had to pay attention to it, waiting for the "icons dancing" to stop - to be sure that audio will be played to the earphones.
Now, "icon dancing" is present no more It displays Smart Connect & Audio Parameters (with some delay between one another), and vibrates as soon as it's ready to play sounds via 3,5 audio port

I was working on the Android Bootable Recovery with Rootkernel for the E5823, and I decided to check something and thought I'd see if Xperia Companion would detect and connect to my phone... it did, and that's how I found there was an update...
Also... just for giggles:

Just checking xperifirm, I see previous Nougat software version dissappear, now I only see this one (32.3.A.2.33) and marshmallow one. Do you recomend updating to Nougat with this new version? Have bugs been squashed now?
PD. I'm still on mm v32.2.A.5.11

You can get it yourself quite easily =)
You'll just need to get XperiFirm for that =)
As soon as you follow the original guide from the mentioned XperiFirm topic and download the desired firmware,
Gewiz said:
...However imo there is even an slightly easier way to do, just try it:
If you open Xperifirm through Flashtool(round button with "XF") and download a firmware, just close Xperifrim after the download is complete.
Afterwards Flashtool will automatically create an .ftf file.

Hi. Did you try that ROM with another kernel? Maybe Zach or AndroPlus? Cose custom ROM with custom kernel sucks in my opinion. Thermal throttling is just too heavy for me.

What happens if update my phone via OTA update ?
(Rooted with rootkernel)
Can I do that ?

offtopic
can someone try flash this

Hi,
Do you have kcal in this kernel? Or can you make one? Rootkernel could add it to the 378 kernel i don.t see rootkernel do it to the new .33 kernel...

[WORKAROUND] Bootloops due leaking handles with Xposed in Lollipop

Fix found and released:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=60454547
Downloads & instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811
Discussion & Q&A:http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/official-xposed-lollipop-t3030118
I asked moderator to close this thread as issue was fixed by releasing new version of Xposed framework. Please send your further questions and post to respective thread.
This thread is about workaround found for bootloops of Xposed in XPERIA family Lollipop. Because of development progress, I have decided to remove historical development, you can see it here:
LATEST VERSION will be always posted at the END of this post
PLEASE READ INSTRUCTIONS .... The attachment IS NOT flashable!!! For flashables see EDIT 5 and bellow...
I hope I can present some good news for users with locked bootloaders who are getting bootloops with Xposed and Lollipop.
This is still continuous WIP. Know what you do, this is a development thread.
For time being, most complete solution by my opinion was made by @mionica, see EDIT 6 and hist post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60298690&postcount=123? and for latest development at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60333600&postcount=285
As you may already know, we have find out, that some undetected error is causing system to bootloop, if too many applications are installed.
Exact numbers are varying between different ROMs and devices, generally the maximum number of apps is about 320-330.
Debloating (uninstalling unnecessary apps) helps, but remains limiting and for many frustrating. After a research, we have found out,
that there is probably a bug, that is causing many files being left open when booting Lollipop with Xposed.
Users on unlocked bootloader may modify certain kernel parameters to raise number of open files. This can not be done on Locked Bootloader.
After some research and hours of experiments, I found a way, how to change the filelimit for Zygote and subsequent processes. Therefore every child of zygote (hence every app etc.) will inherit raised open files limit from 1024 to 4096.
This change should work on all 5.0 compatible system, not only XPERIAs, however I only tested it on Z3 D6603 fw 690. But the modification
is done on Linux system level, therefore it should teoretically work just everywhere... It should work also on Locked bootloaders as well.
The principle is easy, however implementation was a tricky, because of lack of native linux utils support on Android and fact that we can not
easily modify booting behaviour. But gladly enough we have XZDualRecovery (gret thanks @[NUT])....
XZDualRecovery enables to call init scripts on startup. I have created a startup script that waits for zygote process to come up, and calls
external program that changes open file limits for that process. This external program is compiled by me from source provided by http://lzone.de/cheat-sheet/ulimit
Prerequisities: Functional XZDualRecovery or other form of init.d support.
Installation:
Extract downloaded ZIP file, it contains:
flimit-binary executable for changing open file limits
01_flimit - shell script called by init
flimit.c - source code of binary executable
Enable init.d support in XZDualRecovery by editing XZDR.prop and change dr.initd.active=true
Dont forget to have enabled byeselinux (dr.keep.byeselinux=true)
copy flimit and 01_flimit to /data/local/tmp (or push adb)
remount /system rw (mount -o remount,rw /system)
create directory /data/flimit
copy flimit to /data/flimit and make executable (chmod 777)
create directory /system/etc/init.d with and chmod 777 /system/etc/init.d
copy 01_flimit to /system/etc/init.d and chmod 777 /system/etc/init.d/01_flimit
test run installation:
Code:
su
/data/flimit/flimit $(pgrep zygote)
output should be:
Code:
[email protected]:/data # /data/flimit/flimit $(pgrep zygote)
Previous limits: soft=1024; hard=4096
New limits: soft=4096; hard=4096
If not, check permissions etc.
Check script by running:
Code:
su
sh /system/etc/init.d/01_flimit
it should now give output (if you succesfully ran /data/flimit/flimit....):
Code:
[email protected]:/data # /data/flimit/flimit $(pgrep zygote)
Previous limits: soft=4096; hard=4096
New limits: soft=4096; hard=4096
reboot
Thats all. Now you can install and update lot more applications. Now I have about 455 packages reported by pm list packages and no bootloop.
But as soon as I disable the init.d support, it bootloops. So re-enable by edititng XZDR.prop and it again boots.
EDIT:Please let me know, if you had to modify the script or instructions to work on your device, so I can perhaps make better or more universal version. Thank you guys.
EDIT 2:While this workaround makes it possible to run Xposed on untouched vanilla Stock ROM, you may still consider debloating it, as debloating will make run your device more smoothly and saves battery. Guys who made debloating scripts made significant efforts in identifying which apps can be safely removed without harming any significant functionality.
EDIT 3:The ZIP is NOT flashable, follow instructions ^^^^ --- buddy @McBane87 is developing flashable version.
EDIT 4:Buddy @nurps found a bug causing Opera browser to quit upon starting. @mionica proposed lowering softlimits for open files to 2048 from 4096 in first version of script. Version 1.1 is released.
EDIT 5:Buddy @McBane87 created customized flashable version of this workaround, so you can flash it from recovery if you struggle with bootloops, dont like to wait fro 300apps to optimize after Dalvik wipe and mess with adb/terminal..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=60276913
EDIT 6:Buddy @mionica published another flashable zip. It is complete installer for the workaround, so far most sofisticated workaround from system point of view. The uninstaller completely removes Xposed if you are too tired of it and forgot to make backup Files are bellow, for instructions etc. check it out on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60298690&postcount=123 and for latest development at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60333600&postcount=285
Changelog:
v1: Initial release
v1.1: Changed limits to 2048 from 4096 as high limits caused Opera Webbrowsers to crash
v2.0 Reference script - for production please flash @mionica version of flashable, my script is published for educational purposes. added mionicas mod to detect only changed limits and subsequently remove only those that are child of zygote
***************************************
I would like to thank mainly to @[NUT] and to guys who made significant effort with debloating, made other discoveries or were an inspiration
for me, including but not limited to @serajr @moly82 @AndroPlus (for his work on file limits in kernel) @redincali and of course to @rovo89
for his Xposed framework. My apologies if I forgot someone, PM me, its 2 o'clock in morning
or in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60349914&postcount=354
While I have developed initial version (see history), other guys (mainly @mionica and @McBane87) greatly enhanced and redeveloped whole thing.
Current development version and downloadable files you can always find in @mionica post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60298690&postcount=123
@mionica managed to analyze boot process on both ROMs with and without Xposed and came to conclusion that leaks are caused by Xposed process leaking open file handles, see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60373854&postcount=417
There is a current version of the workaround fix (see above), that seems to be the last possible, before Xposed will be released with patch addressing that issue. Good news is that thanks to @mionica precise analysis, @rovo89 - developer of Xposed is already aware of the problem nad it´s cause.
Recommended installation steps:
by @mionica
Anybody who is still having any kind of issues, for whatever reason, please do the following:
get into TWRP;
install, in this order, without rebooting:
xposed-uninstall-v1.1.zip
If you don't have an sd card, you'll need to reboot once after the uninstall .zip, boot the system normally, then get back in the recovery and install the other 3. This only applies to people who don't use an SD card
xzdr-busybox-enable-v1.0.zip
xposed-sdk21-arm-date.zip
xposed-leakplug-v1.2.zip
copy the logs to the PC, over USB:
uninstall_xposed.log
install_busybox.log
install_leakplug.log
each of the 3 zip's will tell you where it saved the log (it's usually the external sdcard)
reboot to system
Thanks in advance for not asking any questions about whether you have to do any of these steps; yes, you have to.

If you follow other instructions than provided by @mionica please get then support from someone else than him.
The basic idea behind is that Xposed bootloops because of it exhausted resources available due to probably internal bug. The workaround basically provides higher limits for open files during boot and restores previous limits after device has booted. The latest flashable installer is very advanced and automates the installation, including necessary checks for proper XZDR configuration, busybox etc.
When you experience bootloops after installing Xposed, or you had Xposed working and it started to bootloop after you have installed new app or upgraded a system app, simply reboot to recovery and flash the zip. No need to wipe anything.
When installing new, I recommend flashing this zip first, then install Xposed usual way (flash, wipe, reboot, install Xposed apk, install modules).
Be aware that while the workaround works for about 80% of cases, there are people who have lots of applications or heavily modified system, experiencing random reboots. Cause is under investiogation, but most probably is in Xposed itself.
Excellent work friend @ondrejvaroscak. Congrats! Awesome
Was waiting a long time for this! Thanks man! working perfectly.
Working perfectly on D6603, thanks
I am gonig to try this asap! Awesome job!
One more thing, if i understand right, now we can install as many apps as we want or the limit is just higher but still there?
Can we now use regular reboot button from power menu withouth getting bootloop?
--Guys lets go ahead and rape the thanks button
Thank you @ondrejvaroscak for this solution!
@rovo89 any chance this could be integrated in the xposed installer?
Thanks Bro , Very Nice !!
Perfect Work !!

Unless I will be blessed with some debugging skills, I have no clue... I think limit is just much higher. Once you reach limit you can simply edit script and change two numbers...
Yes, now regular reboot works.

I think it will take time, because first @rovo89 would probably want to investigate, how much is it a bug, a constellation of coincidences and so on. I am not sure, if the same bootloops appear only on XPERIAs or it is a phenomenon on other brands as well... And given the fact, that big number of Samsungs can not run Xposed at all, maybe he will try to solve that Samsung puzzle as priority. But that is only guess..
Working on fully setup 5.02 on Z2 thanks.

Thank a lot for big news.... just a clarification:
Which xdual recovery we must have ? also the last 2.8.12 ?
The file XZDR.prop i have located on external memoery...it's correct ?
When you said create a directory /data/flimit.. in where ?
In which way i can "..enabled byeselinux (dr.keep.byeselinux=true).."

Any recovery that supports init.d and byeselinux. So if you find this two settings in your XZDR.prop, you just enable them by setting "true".
I tested with 2.8.12,
XZDR.prop is located in /sdcard1 so its External SD card. If no SD card, then its located in /cache.
/data/limit you create absolutely, it means in / is folder data (that already exists) and you create flimit in /data, so:
Code:
adb shell
su
mkdir /data/flimit
byeselinux you enable by setting "dr.keep.byeselinux=true" in XZDR.prop (it may be set to false by default depending on version fo XZDR you have).
Ok fine... for verify all you said:

Exactly, when you put dr.initd.active=false and have full stock, it should again bootloop. Then you replace the XZDR.prop file with version with init.d enabled and it should boot normally again.
and last after all i can install xposed over .726 odexed ?

I think without any problem. Deodexing has nothing to do with working Xposed, but it is may be necessary for some modules (Gravitybox?)?

ExtSD Fix​
Download latest stable - MD5 checksum​Download latest dev - MD5 checksum​
In KitKat, Lollipop and Marshmallow, policies on writing permissions for external SD cards have been changed. This flashable recovery file automatically appends the correct permissions to the file as explained in many tutorials on the web (here or here) or as what many apps do (here).
Advantages
The advantage of this flashable zip over the other methods is that:
you don't need to install any apps,
you can revert by reflashing (not tested for marshmallow),
it does not require you to have root (needs to be confirmed),
[*]you don't need a custom recovery (needs to be confirmed).
Installation
It can insert and remove the permission to write on the external sdcard. To install follow these steps:
Turn off phone,
Boot into recovery,
Backup your system and data partition,
Flash this zip file once,
Reboot phone normally.
To revert the changes, follow the same steps again. This means that flashing it twice will have no effect.
Marshmallow is not supported yet, implementation is in progress.
Note: On Marshmallow, busybox will be installed if not already present. It can also be installed as a standalone app. You should an also add init.d support to your phone if not already available using an app.
How to report a bug
Check if someone else reported that it did/didn't work,
Backup, clean flash, reinstall all apps and then flash ExtSD Fix,
Submit a bug report here with both the original and modified packages.xml and the recovery log file as suggested here.

It should be working. You can always go back by copying back the file in a rooted shell command with the system partition mounted:
Code:
cd /system/etc/permissions
cp platform.xml-201*.bak platform.xml
chmod 0644 platform.xml

Hey @rufus.wilson
Flashed v1.3b, but it didn't work. And then I I restored the file with this two commands. After that, almost all the apps crash (FC) when I want to start it and when I can open an app, it hasn't any internet connection.
Can I fix this or must I wipe /system and /data?
(cache and dalvik cache already wiped)
I have noew zero permission, I can't even take a screenshot :/

Introduction
I noticed that old init.d enabling methodes aren't working anymore with latest firmwares on the Xperia Z5
I tried many of available traditional methodes (that relies on init.qcom.post_boot.sh, install-recovery.sh ... I believe they stopped working because a lot of them used SuperSU ), also tried many magisk init.d emulators but none of them worked as well. My mod uses simpler and modern method I thought I'd share it with you to help those who still have troubles activating init.d especially newbies
What is init.d ?
Init.d plays an important role in the world of Android development and customization It allows users to install scripts and mods to be run at boot—everything from battery tweaks to performance tweaks..

Flashed buh phone stuck at bootlogo, had to flash uninstaller zip before phone boots up.....
Flashed the mod in Magisk and rebooted, the mod made the fingerprint option unavailable in Settings. (stock 7.1.1 140)
Disabled the mod Magisk and rebooted, fingerprint appeared again.
Can you look into it?
P/s: flash the mod directly in TWRP will get you stuck at boot logo.

how is that, what kernel/rom you are using.. working fine on stock here
Also note that you might need to wait 30sec at least after boot before init.d takes effect
So try to refresh in your file manager and check the result in /data/

Bro @korom42 there is no initd_test.log in the data folder on my XZ
Verstuurd vanaf mijn F8331 met Tapatalk
This works but breaks both safetynet checks for me on a Z3C LOS 14.1 with Universal safetynet fix 10.1.
@korom42, first of all, thanks for this awesome work. I can confirm that this mod is working on Xperia Z5 Premium E6833, 7.1.1 stock rom with magisk 14.2 beta.
BUGS:
1) the test file present in the /system/etc/init.d namely "00test" is undeleteable. I tried remounting the system as R/W but still get the message "Device or Resource Busy".
2) When I create my own scripts (which is just another test script or any other) in the /system/etc/init.d folder, it gets saved successfully with permissions rwx-r-x-r-x. But when i restart the device, my created scripts get deleted automatically without execution.
Is their something I'm doing wrong???
P.S: I have attached the script I'm using for your consideration....
Regards
Adil
@korom42, i figured out the problem.
EVERYONE FACING PROBLEMS WITH THIS MODULE SHOULD PLACE THIER SCRIPTS IN THE FOLLOWING PATH:
/magisk/simple_initd/system/etc/init.d
DON'T PLACE THE SCRIPTS IN:
/system/etc/init.d
This is a systemless module, placing files in the latter mentioned path you modify the system which kind of ruins the systemless purpose....
Thanks alot for this extremely awesome module @korom42

However the module breaks safetynet immediately after installing. Is it because of the test output file created in /data or otherwise?
I'm using this init.d link module instead now with a small mod and workaround. I've written my experiences in that thread. It's not straightforward but it's the only semi-working safetynet init.d for me.

Alright, if you managed to use the mod while keeping SafetyNet bypass working than that's great
but I won't change anything since it's not a reliable way because the user will have to move his files each time adding new scripts
- for deleting the 00test file did you try a different file manager .. root browser works fine here

- Just disable the module from Magisk Manager whenever you need SafetyNet bypass back .. will try to make it SafetyNet compatible in next versions if possible
@korom42 i just want to report that safety is now also broken on my Xperia Z5 Premium E6833 Stock Rom (LOL) after just 2 reboots. Uninstalling this module fixes the issue. Hope you will find a way to make this module work with safetynet....
@Infy_AsiX @Adil Tariq @crisout
This is a quick temporary fix for SafetyNet untill I release I new version .. thanks to @Mondor1979
As for safety net, there is the very easy way to fix it. Just reinstall busybox version 27.2 after each reboot that will return safetynet back to pass state. I use meefik and that helps.

32.4.A.1.54 is coming

xpericheck.com/device/E5803
any news on the changelog?
So far everything works well on 7.1.1 for me. Ran a graphic intensive game generating slightly less heat but the device is definitely a lot faster. The ram that the system takes up for me is about ~730 MB and I have about ~550 MB of ram free with my regular apps running. Only time will tell for the battery life. Cheers!
Steps I took before taking the update: Cleared cache by holding power + vol up before taking update, after taking update repeated process (hold power + vol up to clear cache again).
No changes except security patch update
Nothing stellar, could even be BS, apart the september security update (source, not Sony):
Android September Security patch.
Device Stability improvements
Bug fixes.
Performance improvements.
But at least it's good to still have some official updates including security patches.
Update
I have received the notification, but when a try to install, it just restarts the phone, is it because Im rooted?
Got it few hours ago. So far so good. No major changes I guess.
Download size was ~351MB.

Steps I took before taking the update: Cleared cache by holding power + vol up before taking update, after taking update repeated process (hold power + vol up to clear cache again).

Worth upgrading from stock 6.0 to 7.1.1?
Homescreen icons are still very big?

personally I think, there's no choice.
from 6.0 up to 7.1.1 (including the previous build 32.4.A.0.160 from sony) there are so much security holes in it. This alone is a very good reason.

can't say.. using Nova Launcher since so long..
I was at the previous Nougat and downgraded to MM as the phone was running too hot.
With the Firmware the phone is very cool now and only warms up, would recommned it.

How's the battery life? Also does the fingerprint sensor work any better?
Idk man, I'm not happy with this update on my z5c. It is making the phone lag almost everywhere.
Yes I have cleared the cache amd disabled movie maker

How To root and Twrp X compact Docomo so-02j

hello friends, i'm having trouble for my root and twrp because i have so-02j version.
I've followed the guides trying the genesis kernel, but it just makes a stop in the sony logo when booting.
does my device have a chance to root twrp and anymore?
my step was successful until unlock bootloader

Rootkernel is a tool. You can use it to disable built-in Sony security features in stock kernel, so you can modify system, etc. You will need the stock kernel.elf file from your ftf. Default format is .sin, I think, so you need to use Flashtool to dump kernel.sin from ftf, then use sin editor to get kernel.elf. Then you can use rootkernel tool to patch kernel.elf and output boot.img, that you can flash in recovery.

Use 7zip, and go to ftf file and select 'open archive'. Find the file inside called 'kernel.sin', and extract /copy it somewhere. Then open Flashtool. in top dropdown menus, click 'sin editor', and navigate to the kernel.sin file, select it and choose 'extract data'. It will dump a file called 'kernel.elf'. Then download rootkernel tool, and extract to a folder, and put your kernel.elf fokder into the rootkernel folder. Then open a command prompt in the rootkernel directory, and type 'rootkernel kernel.elf boot.img'. If it works, it will create a boot.img that can be rooted.
issues/questions:
- I have only done this on Oreo. Serajr made an unofficial rootkernel specifically for Xperia Oreo. I have no way to know if it will work for a Nougat Docomo device. I know rootkernel has had several versions/releases, and does work on Nougat, but I don't know for sure which one, if any will work for you. Search these links:

only rootkernel that talks about nougat, but i am failing on tools rootkernel v5.23 v5.11 v4.31 can not open exe or cmd inside folder,
I have sequence with:
1. Retrieve the kernel.sin file from ftf nougat fw so-02j using 7zip, and extrack sin to elf using flashtool.
2. i extrack the rootkernel tool folder and input the kernel.elf into the rootkernel folder. (here I am having problems, opening cmd or exe does not affect anything2)
for other versions i see for oreo, with certain version is there any possibility for nogat?

Not sure what you mean... If you have rootkernel folder, open command prompt, and 'cd /(whatever)/(whatever)/rootkernel', (meaning navigate to wherever the rootkernel folder is), then type 'rootkernel'. What is output?

- Dm-verity is a security feature which will prevent system mods. You should select 'yes' to disable it
- Sony RIC: ditto
- Not sure about TWRP msg. just leave it 'no'. You can flash TWRP later.
- If you don't have ta backup, you might want drm fix. It theoretically improves camera performance if you're missing ta. Since it says unsupported, maybe if you get bootloop with new kernel, try again with 'no'.
- Why not install busybox? Many or most root apps need it.

Next would be to flash the new boot img, (if you didn't yet). It might be a good idea to clean flash firmware first, but might not be necessary. If you do a clean fw flash first, don't turn on the phone when done flashing. Just unplug, then reconnect in fastboot, and flash boot.img. After you flash the new boot img, if everything boots ok, then flash TWRP, then flash root, (Magisk, e.g.).
Kugo has official TWRP now, but don't know if it will work with Docomo. Seems like it should... Latest version is 3.2.2. There's also unofficial 3.2 versions in the development forum here. If you have any TWRP that has worked on your phone before, maybe just stick with that one for testing.

You can try ta-poc by munjeni. That's the only ta restore I've ever used. Or, if you made a TWRP backup of your rom before unlocking bl, TWRP might do it. I've heard about other methods, but never tried.

Hello @tumincm I want to ask you which SO-02J firmware you used before for backup your TA Partition? I'm using 34.1.B.0.336 version but not success. I want to backup my TA partition because I have SO-02J with Bootloader Unlock Allowed: Yes. Please reply my question. Thank you so much.
