Hello! First of all, i would say that i am currently running Omni 6.0.1 ROM.
I also have tried CM13, Lineage OS 14.1, Omni (6.0.1, 7.1.X), KEM ROM, AOSP.
What i want is a rooted stock Sony ROM (6.0.1) not Nougat because the lack of the possibility of installing Xposed framework. Any guides and ROM's are appreceated. My device again: Sony Xperia X Compact (F5321, KUGO).
BTW tried flashing 6.0.1 ftf and fastboot flash recovery recovery.img but result was a bootloop and TWRP. I am running a stock kernel (and i do not wish to modify that). Thanks and please reply!
Sent from my F5321 using XDA-Developers Legacy app

use flashtool to downgrade to marshmallow, choose the earliest version you see in xperifirm. (maybe the jounalist rom etc, no problem in using that i believe)
basically just follow this guide, but use an older fw so that you get mm

oops. you said you tried this, but it gives you a bootloop.
did you try wiping data/system all that stuff, because i would not be surprised if you bootloop after downgrading, without wiping some stuff

Hi qvmuhuuxz! Pretty sure it's not your real name! If i downgrade, it is ok and no bootloop, but if i try to reinstall twrp and boot to twrp to flash SuperSU it says that it succeeded but if i try to boot after that then there either is no root or bootloop occurrs. Ideas?
BTW tried Resurrection Remix and i was dissapointed because Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC, Camera etc. didn't work...
JIC i made a nandroid backup so if i mess sth. up it is ok. I had an Galaxy Express 2 with RR and i loved it. Shame
Anywhoo i will try again to just install twrp and boot to system, i haven't tried it yet...

Hi, assuming your data is unencrypted...? (actually TWRP can handle XC's encrypted data with Marshmallow, but not nougat - so if you are playing with 6.0 it shouldn't matter encrypted or not)
It sounds like the problem is SU.
Yes please try to reboot after installing TWRP.
I recommend Magisk, it worked great for me.
Flash Magisk v12 instead of SU and install the apk for Magisk Manager 4.3.3.
I can't recommend the latest version of Magisk because it doesn't work for me the few times I tried to upgrade. v12 works perfectly..
Let me know how you get on. I have working Android Pay, everything is good.
Magisk v12 - https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/archive/v12.0.zip

Hello there with good news, Magisk 13 worked flawlessly and i got xposed framework working too. I guess there was a problem with the SuperSU package, although i downloaded several packages. Anyway super duper thanks for the help. I appriciate it! I have a question, is there some advanced themes for XC too (MM) that is? I tried MIUI theme but with no luck. Thanks!

Hey,
you posted about having tried Resurrection Remix with the X Compact. Can you please send me Link to where I can find the Rom for this device, as I have problems finding it.
Best, Felix

Hi, sorry if it took too long but here you go!

Xposed for Nougat is out, I upgraded from Marshmallow and have no complaints other than substratum not working on Nougat for Xperias. If you need a working Marshmallow I have my copy of .198 here- https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bx5gPVuLapkKTU1vOHVsLTMzWGc
Use flashtool 9.22.3 for marshmallow or else it wont work. The Androplus kernel with drm patch doesnt patch drm correctly either so you need to make your own with ta_poc. You HAVE to run a modified kernel to be able to make modifications to system and to be able to boot up TWRP, no way around that. Thats why I build my own with ta_poc using the stock kernel.
BTW STOP using SuperSU, its been sold to a chinese company and is no longer open source, use magisk, you probably want to pass safetynet as well since Google is cracking down on root.
Since we won't get any updates I've decided to root my device but before I do so I would like to know if the official root tutorial uploaded by OnePlus would work with Oxygen OS 3.6.0 and what are the usual problems that may come with a failed root.

Yes it will work. Oneplus' firmware is easy to root. You'll not lose any data on unlocking the bootloader either(not guaranteed. I didn't). Just go ahead with it.

Ok, so just to make sure I download the latest TWRP version for OP2 and the latest SuperSU (2.82) and follow the tutorial and I should be fine?

As the title states i was wondering what version of magisk to flash to root 8.1 opm1? Im currently on 8.1 dp1 with SuperSU and wanted to switch to magisk when i updated to the final version of 8.1. thanks
I'm using V14 and it works great!
If you install the magisk app from apkmirror or XDA will offer you the latest magisk zip that works.

It can! All you gotta do is uninstall Magisk and it'll ask you to restore the stock boot image. Once you've done that. All you need to do is downloading FlashFire [Root] and flash the OTA. :good:

You don't need to install custom recovery to update magisk. Read OperKirin page, there's a manual, how to install magisk.
I don't think exposed would work on omnirom. twrp installs, but there's no point having it.
