Please forgive my stupidity - I'm a longtime Samsung Android user and this Fastboot/adb process is all new to me. Last time I used that was with Original TMOBILE Mototola G1!!
So, this is what I have: I had my device ( ZE551KL ) on LP, Bootloader unlocked with TWRP and rooted. 'Cause I first unlocked the Bootloader with the official ASUS app.
Then I installed the OTA ASUS MM version, but according to everyone, once one install the OTA upgrade, it relocks the Bootloader, correct? How can I test this??
This afternoon I put device in Fastboot mode and did a "fastboot boot twrp-3.0.4.img" and it worked!!!
It boot into TWRP and am busy making a backup now.
My Question: if my bootloader is still locked, how could I boot TWRP?
Can I try and 'Fastboot flash recovery twrp....' and will this work or am I going to brick the device?
Ideas? ( well, rather experienced advice, please)- as I would hate to brick my device.
The TWRP backup I am currently making - is that any good/helpful to anyone that can help us getting this device properly unlocked and rooted?
Thanks
I did try the official ASUS unlock tool on MM....
I forgot to mention that.
I did try the official unlock tool on MM, but the app just failed.
I opened an issue with ASUS regarding this, as their website specify version 1.16 'and later'
Does this mean I am good to flash TWRP??
Am I good to flash TWRP if I get this message??
You are good. I had unlocked the bootloader long time ago, and I have installed MM, they don't relock it back. It would be strange to do that, since once unlocked you lost the warranty... it would be like they will gave you back the warranty!
Dude, your bootloader is unlocked. You're good to go. Fastboot flash that recovery and go to town.
From your description it is clear that you have successfully unlocked your device. Once it is unlocked, you wont be able to lock it back. So there is no way to revert the process and it affects warranty. Now anytime you can flash TWRP with fastboot and install custom ROM. If you want to install Stock rom install stock recovery and use ADB sideload to install Stock ROM. if you have any other doubts visit my youtube channel [TheMobileShots] where i have provided the tutorial to do these things. Have a great day!
Hello guys, I want to RMA my device and there need to know if it is possible to go to complete bone-full-stock back to the roots with my Ax7 A2017G?
Did anyone manage to do it?
I basically want to have stock BL, Recovery, System Bootstack etc.
Thanks in advance
I can now confirm that this guide here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/help/axon-7-a2017g-to-stock-lock-bootloader-t3551615
Works perfectly.
This makes it a very flash friendly device.
I tried out several Stock ROMs, you can run every software on pretty much any model provided you have the correct modem. Also LineageOS.
Unlocking the Bootloader is easy, Re-Locking for warranty is easy aswell.
Hi,
I'll received my XC this week, and I'd like to root it.
I don't want a custom ROM, but just a stock one with xposed and remove some bloatwares.
Here are my needs:
keep DRM
latest stock rom
twrp
untouched system partition
easy OTA
XC Genesis kernel
xposed + module
Do you think it possible to achieve such a configuration?
How-to?
Thanks
EDIT: I'll update this post to make it an HOW-To for futures users with same questions.
Assuming you're unable to unlock your BL the steps are as follows...
Flash back to 198.
Backup your TA.
Unlock your BL
Update to 311
Extract kernel - ftf/sin/elf
Run elf through Rootkernel_v5.23 - (In cmd prompt window - rootkernel kernel.elf boot.img)
Create DK ftf with Rootkernel_v5.23 (In cmd prompt window - flash_dk TA-19022017.img DK.ftf)
Flash new boot.img
Flash TWRP.img
Flash Super User zip
Flash DK.ftf with Flashtool 9.22
...and that should be it.
Latest stock Rom + xposed will not be possible...

Forget about OTA when rooted...

OTA is not possible once bootloader is unlocked. System partition touched or not played no role.
ok.
So if I want root the XC, I have to unlock the bootloader, loose DRM and ota?
How is the camera quality without the drm keys?
Thanks

You HAVE to unlock. There is NO root on LOCKED bootloader.
Unlocking bootloader deletes TA partition, containing DRM keys. You should BACKUP your TA partition BEFORE unlocking using DirtyCow Backup tool from Sony Cross Devices forum.
After unlocking, you can either flash kernel that supports DRM patching either by using fake DRM libraries, or your real DRM keys, either flashed in alternative location (see RootKernel tool in Z5 forums, works on almost all modern Xperias) or PoC TA tool from Sony Cross devices, that mounts your TA backup as TA partition, therefore your phone looks as having DRM keys and locked.

Would you mind detailing a bit more those steps, especially the first 2? Im coming from a really old phone so im still a bit lost. (where can i learn about ftf/sin/elf?)
How can we flash back to 198? Flashing doesnt require an unlocked BL, wich to be achieved deletes your TA?
im on a brand new X Compact, 7.0 (34.2.A.0.292), secure patch 01/01/17
managed to get flashtool, adb/fastboot and Universal TA Backup v2 on my pc but no dice on TA backup yet

Sure. You don't really need to learn about those stuff but is handy to know, you'll pick stuff up along the way. They are basically firmware files.

Open the flashtool and run Xperifirm (icon with XI) on it, then browse to the XC, then click on F5321 and it will load up the different regions and available firmware. If you click on "check all" it will then show which FW is available to download, Central Europe 5 still shows as 198, so you need to select it on the right of the screen under the picture of the phone, it will then download and it's simply a matter of following the instructions to flash it.

When you get 198 on your phone then you'll be able to back your TA. If you get stuck give us a shout.

Thank you, i was able to successfully backup my TA earlier yesterday. But now im struggling with how to restore it in MM 6.0.1 (34.1.A.1.198).
I've read that i'll need a custom kernel for that (and to get TWRP+supersu+magisk+xposed) but im unsure if i should use Genesis (probably unsuported but the only one that says it'll restore MY TA) or Advanced Stock Kernel from Androplus. Ive read that messing with TA can hardbrick my phone so im trying to be extra careful.
atm im following ondrejvaroscak's quickrecap to make sure everything goes smooth with my TA keys and then i plan to downgrade to 6.0, install Advanced Stock Kernel, supersu 2.79 and magisk and then pray for the best (without reflashing my own DK.ftf?)

Download Flashtool 9.22.3 and flash your DK.ftf, flashing with a newer version doesn't work, you should then be able to verify it's worked in the service menu.

You can use the RootKernel tool to modify your own kernel, extract the kernel.sin from the ftf with a zip program, then use the flashtool to extract the kernel.elf, Tools-Sin Editor-Extract Data then run it through the RootKernel tool and flash the boot.img it creates, then flash TWRP separately to the recovery partition which will allow you then to flash SuperSU.
SuperSU and BusyBox are the only options I didn't include when creating my kernel. Others will have to help with the other two things you want as I refuse to use them.

Thanks again. I was worried that the drm-fix from the kernel editing tool could corrupt my TA partition but thankfully i was wrong on that .
Im now at MM 6.0, original DRM keys, TWRP, xposed, rooted with magisk and im almost sure that with busybox. Why do you refuse to use them? Just curious!
Thanks a lot for your help, cheers

I flashed a kernel I made with the Rootkernel tool without the drm fix but it showed some mumbo jumbo where it should say ok and provisioned, included the drm fix in the next one and it worked fine then.

You're welcome. I refuse because I prefer to know how to mod apks directly and I found Xposed to be quite buggy. I can see the benefits, it's just not for me.
Hello,
my Sony Xperia Z1 Compact has the standard Android 5.1 version of Sony. Now I want to upgrade to a new Android version.
I need it for everyday-use and it should be relatively stable. The camera is not that important, but it should work. I use especially the browser, so the mobile datas should also work. Otherwise it should be only be stable and the battery should not discharge too fast. Is there any good build for me?
That one looks very interesting: AICP 7.1 ROM amami (I can't link the URL, because I am a new user )
Is it okay for a Custom-ROM beginner? I think I will find some instructions and tutorials how to install it. I just have to know if it is a good choice.
If there are any English mistakes, please correct me. I have to improve my English.
Thank you!

Thank you for your fast answer.
Is the camera completely unusable or just "not good"? I do not need the best quality, but it should at least work and you should be able to identify what the picture shows.
However, thank you for the link. I think I will try it. Android 6 is, I hope so, an improvement. Maybe I will then upgrade to Nougat.
There are no other options like Ubuntu Touch or Sailfish, right?

Put a piece of tape over your camera lens, and turn off the lights, and shake the phone back and forth while taking a picture... That's what most of the photos will look like.
No Sailfish, and @munjeni has built Ubuntu touch for Z1c, but I couldn't get the Internet to work, (except for Ubuntu store, which downloads apps fine). - https://mega.nz/#!YEpCHLoS!tRxZpJHUSKL_cZz9wisGZvWl7igYAlYJRjwbcT_s868 Besides that, fxp has built Firefox OS, but probably hard to find at this point, and there are a few MIUI builds out there that are very good.

Hello again,
I decided to try out some Custom-ROMs.
Now I find many different ways how to root my phone and unlock the bootloader. Which way do you here recommend?
And how difficult is going back to the stock ROM and lock the bootloader againg, if nothing works?
Thank you!

One little question: if I unlock my bootloader, my complete internal storage is wiped, right?
But if my bootloader is locked, I can not use the nandroid-backup-function of TWRP, because I can not use the custom kernel to root my phone. (Am I right? )
Currently I only have done your first step - backup the TA.
And of course, thank you again. :fingers-crossed:

You can root with locked bl, but your options are: 1) use Kingroot, (and it's generally preferred to not keep Kingroot, so after rooting you can replace Kingroot with SuperSU or wipe everything and flash a new rom with SuperSU), or 2) downgrade to KK and use doomlord rootkit, then flash LP prf.

Okay.
I would like to avoid using Kingroot and downgrade to 4.4 is not even better.
But I found the Sony-Flashtool "Emma" for Windows. It seems to be able to restore completely the Stock-5.1-ROM. So I think I don't need a whole nandroid-backup. Am I right?
So I will unlock my bootloader, flash the custom kernel using TWRP-Tool and have a rooted phone. Then I am able to flash any custom-ROM I want to try out.
Did I misunderstand anything?

True, Emma will restore you to stock. The backup would be if you want to restore the particular state of your phone right now.
Unlock bl, then flash the boot and recovery imgs, and you will be able to get into recovery. You'll want to have whatever rom you want to flash already downloaded on sdcard.
It works.
Now I have the AICP 12.1 7.1.2 Nightly Version.
Only the camera is not good, but better than expected. The aroma-GApps-package does not work, the GUI is hidden under the GUI of TWRP, but you can select your choice. However, after clicking install nothing was installed. After I downloaded and installed the super-GApps-package everything works fine.
If I find some issues, where can I report them? In the officiall AICP-12.1 N 7.1 amami Thread?
And at least a great thank you to levone1. :fingers-crossed:

Best Custom ROM for Z1C
Not to open a new thread, which Custom ROM would you guys recommend to install on my Z1C?
I'm having some issues atm. It keeps restarting; I did a factory reset, it worked well for a while, now the issue is back. However, it does seem to work fine when hooked up to my PC (with the PC Companion active). Before I start shopping for a new phone, I'd like to root it first.
For this purpose, I'd like to know whick custom ROM is the most stable that you would recommend I install. Also, I'd be very helpful if you could direct to a good guide about the entire process.
Thank you in advance, I appreciate it!

OP's intention is different than mine but this approach looks suit me well. I would like to keep my stock (14.6.A.1.236), so can I flash kernel.sin from Stock Rom via Flashtool after restoring TA and keep root status and recovery or should I use the custom kernel henceforth?

I don't think I've ever done it that way, but I don't see why not. As long as you don't wipe your recovery, you should still be good... (if you'd rather use stock kernel for whatever reason).

Thanks for the answer. Actually the whole story is, the phone belongs to my wife and she is neither techsavvy nor has patience with electronics, especially when any problem come up. I would like to remove bloatwares and have backup yet keep the phone as Stock as possible. I'm trying to keep my ROM related modifications at minimum. That's been said, I would welcome any correction on this manner as I feel you found returning the stock kernel is pointless.

I wouldn't say pointless, but for the most part, any custom kernel is an improvement. Most of the customizations wouldn't mean anything to someone like that, but I doubt there's any harm or risk in keeping it.
Hello
I own a clean X Compact phone and I want to unlock bootloader and root it ( Magisk) before install anything on it. Actually it is on Android 8 v34.4 and I can't backup DRM with indicated tools (backup TA), so do I need to backup DRMs if I don't use Sony services except the camera to take pictures ?
If yes, which tool can do this on Android 8 ?
Thanks
Feedback on this.
After done the android 8 update to the last release from sept 2018, I was able to activate the OEM unlock and run fastboot unlock command.
Installation of TWRP is ok
Magisk cause Unsupported/Unknown image format with the v21 . Investigate to know why
Trying to install DRM-Fix-system_Mode.zip and the phone boot loop on fastboot mode.. I'm looking to a way to uninstall this DRM Fix or flash another file,if someone can help.
Finally install Lineage OS 16 after failed to install stock firmware with flashtool. Added OpenGApps and Magisk (v21) to disable non desired apps ( 95%)
It is better to backup the TA in case you would need to get back to the stock firmware or sell device in factory conditions (on stock ROM).
If you have already unlocked the bootloader without backing up the TA first then there is no way to bring the device back to the completely factory state.
