[Q] N00bQuestion about Flashing... - Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E

Hi, i'm from Colombia, and I have this Sony Xperia E C1504, Rooted with SRSRoot, but my current firmware is 11.3.A.0.56, and i find this http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-j-e/general/how-to-xperia-e-c1505-firmware-11-3-2-t2435957 (Firmware 11.3.A.2.23), I have some questions, i'm sorry i'm newbie here, doing this, the only thing i flashed was an old tablet with 2.3.3GBread.
1. Will this firmware work for me? ( i have C1504 and it says C1505, also, im From Colombia, does it matter?
2. My phone is rooted, do i need to flash the kernel when i move (if i can) to 2.23 in order to root like is shown?
Ty for your time, i just had to ask

Okay, firstly, there isn't any firmware with build number 11.3.A.0.56 - I'm taking it you have 0.47 instead of 0.56.
Sure, you can install it - I have a C1504 too, and I think it is safe to say that you can use any Xperia E firmware - even the Xperia E dual ones (C1604 or C1605).

and about root?
Sir, thank you, i have one more question. My phone is rooted with this current firmware, in order to root the 2.23 Firmware here's how to do it:
1. Flash kernel 11.3.A.0.47
2. Root your XE using Framaroot. (Gandalf exploit)
3. Flash kernel 11.3.A.2.23
But, since i've my phone rooted, do i need to follow the steps above?

nope ....did you unlock bootloader/??/

No sir
I haven't unlock the bootloader, but i know i can do it (view SS) and Sony support that idea, i know i need it if i want to flash kernel, but do i need it to flash firmware, no, right?

fastboot dosent work without unlocked boootloader

Why?
http://www.xperiablog.net/forum/resources/xperia-e_c1505_11-3-a-2-23_vietnam_generic.145/
so, i can't use this, sir?
It says as a NOTE:
"This tutorial does not require you to root your handset nor does it require you to unlock your bootloader. FLASHING YOUR HANDSET DOES NOT VOID YOUR WARRANTY."

Okay... I didn't even know that we had a 0.56 firmware....
@XperiaEss Unlocked bootloader and fastboot aren't needed to flash FTF files; only flash mode is required for that, and flash mode works on locked bootloaders too.

Stock kernels (the ones in .ftf files) can be flashed; sin files, elf files and img files cannot.

yessss...exactly....but can it be flashed through CWM?? (img,elf,sin)

So, can i do it, right? Flash that firmware to update it, i've used titanium backup, and everything is now in mi SD.
But, in order to root? do i need to flash kernel? is that the only way ?

@leolook Yeah, sorry we took it a bit off-topic. If you mean you want to upgrade to 2.23, downgrade to 0.47 kernel, use Framaroot and then upgrade to 2.23 kernel again - sure, no problems. LOng as you have a Titanium backup or Nandroid, you're fine.
@XperiaEss Those can be flashed via fastboot, which needs an unlocked bootloader (unfortunately).

@NSDCars5
so.... boot.img in roms work with flashing with CWM
but seperate boot.img files has to be flashed through fastboot?
if i put a boot.img in a zip wii it cwm flash?

Probably, but you also need to modify the updater-script (in META-INF/com/google/android) to extract the file. The line will read something like:
Code:
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p3");
(This one was from jjm34's CM10.)

You can try Custom ROM. Currently i am using AVD Rom, one of the best Stock based custom ROM for Xperia J, it works with both Locked & Unlocked Bootloader. Also you can try CM10.
Every ROM is different made in accordance with the user experiences and requirements.

And...in my opinion stock cm10 +riches kernel is faster than stock so if you want to overclock cpu and such things , install cm. but before , flash stock 4.0.4 dunno which build number it is XD
cause when not your gsm is not working
And another good thing, think you know it, riches kernel comes with dual recovery

What's the difference between this version and 18.3.C.0.37 except root? Also how to flash cwm?
Now we just need a method to bring CWM or TRWP to the D2303. Or is it included in the above, and I can flash it via kernel + Flashtool?
I will update the op as soon as posible.

If the kernel contains CWM, I could extract the kernel.elf from the .zip, then flash it via fastboot. Correct?
Which region is the ROM from?

The kernel in this zip file not includes CWM! You need the CWM from DooMloRD.
Flash this file via fastboot, then reboot in recovery.
This is the customized MY 1281-1590 version of this firmware.

The differences are minimal, minor bugfixes. On my device it works fine.
For flash the CWM, read the op.
when will their be a custom kernel for us locked bootloaders with cwm on it .as would like to see it on the m2 locked bootloaders .
If the fix mount system tut here does not work for you, which may not, here is a simple fix just for removing the unneeded system apk's after flashing dotzi's 18.3.C.0.39:
- create a file named "enable" with a file editor with the value 0 in it
- save the file without .txt extension, or remove the extension after the file is saved
- copy the file "enable" to sys/kernel/security/sony_ric (ignore any failed operation message)
- set permissions to rw-r-r-
Gives full access to all system files for the current session.

This customized ROM works fine for me. Thanks to the OP!
Perfect would be CWM integrated into kernel, dito for the mount-sript (and init support) into ROM. That's all we need No de-odexing or other pointless stuff.

Nice to hear that it works. To integrate CWM will only be possible if a working Recovery is available for the D2303. I just tried it in the kernel building, but I failed miserably. But I will try as soon as possible to integrate the mount-script and the init.d support.
Let us hope that even more people to deal with it and the development is of overriding driven.

Consider putting the doomlord kernel which contains the CWM onto another storage (if he allows). Downloading from the current location is really not fun.
I'll be subscribing here as it seems you want to bring it further.:good:
Wow, nice one
Thanks for your hard work, really appreciate it
(Currently waiting for the dual-SIM one xD)
How do you were able to install CWM ? Your link is linket do DooMLoRD's CWM für JB for the D2305.
I'm gedtting a bootloop by installing it.

It doesn't matter. Flash the cwm via fastboot, and boot only in recovery by pressing vol down. Then Flash the zip file and reboot! It works, believe me!

I agree, his question is not clear at all. I initially thought he wanted a flashable zip in order to downgrade, which would be pointless.....
.zip
any .zip file , i mean any .zip firmware included the ftf and recovery and supersu. to flash it and work
Have you already installed a recovery? Which firmware do you want included?

[Rootable Kernel/ TWRP 3 - E6833/E6853/E6883 Marshsmellow ] [32.1.A.1.163] AU]

Okay here we go,
Marvelous Super-Huge Thanks to
@AndroPlus for his kernel source
and helping me out with the kernel.elf situation.
@KbaB.BroS for testing and confirming. <== E6853
@Ashray_Vk for testing and confirmation <== E6883
@Neil_Armstrong_ for testing and confirmation <== E6833
The boot.img uses the bootrec setup.
Flash via fastboot
fastboot flash boot E6853_MM_ROOTABLE_PERMISSIVE_boot.img
Note: You DO NOT NEED TO ROOT YOUR DEVICE to perform root operations via adb shell !
just plug in open a terminal on pc and run
adb root
adb remount
adb shell
Use @Chainfire 's latest SuperSU, this version will apply root to the boot.img (system-less root).
I have not activated my phone so i will need some confirmation as to the correct function
of communications.
There are no additional modifications to the kernel other than what androplus has already
introduced to his kernel sources.

TWRP 3 has an issue with no adb access, i'll figure that out when I do.
I am fairly certain it is in one of the init.*.rc files
I recommend users of AndroPlus 's twrp build to remain with that build unless there is an issue.
I mainly wanted twrp 3 because of the improved terminal. =)

I assert that external storage read/write is now functional for this recovery build in conjuction with the provided boot.img/kernel build.
It is the setup I am using. My external card is 128gb exfat format. Any issue from here foward is of user error or format/condition of external card.
I did notice in one instance, that removing the external card, inserting into a card reader on pc and removing/deleting the following items
.android
Android
customized_capability.xml
Then reinserting card into phone did appear to restore access. If you left your card in the phone the entire time your ran LP through to the time you updated to MM, then remove the card and perform the above, and you should be sorted.
There is a backup issue with this TWRP build in that backups made to an exfat formatted external card must be uncompressed as there seems to be an issue/error/bug with libtar.
I do not intend to continue any additional projects on this front as I am trying to get a build of cm13 working.
I am not taking any requests, outside of attempting to fix anything goofy/wrong in this kernel build.
I have attached my kernel defconfigs for the E6853 and E6883/E6833
I am working off of the MM AU firmware release E6853_32.1.A.1.163_1299-1469_R3C.ftf

What is the e6883, dual ? If AndroPlus 's kernel sources support it then I dont se why not. I do need the Official kernel.sin or kernel.elf for that model to get the ramdisk though. If you have the firmware .ftf file, then extract the kernel.sin and upload it to where i can get it,

There it is, the kernel.sin
Id be happy to help you test it too if needed
I also remember that androplus had done a kernel for the z5p dual too, but he abandoned it later.
And yes, the e6883 is the dual version
Firstly, thank you moonbutt74.
Secondly, I require some clarification or rather steps in which to get this on to my device and working.
I am currently running Lollipop, Boot Loader Unlocked and rooted via Androplus' method then running Auras' ROM based on the .200 firmware of Lollipop. Ideally I want to be able to retain my data but do I install Marshmallow before proceeding with what is written in the original post here?
A quick step-by-step guide would be massively appreciated as I do not want to end up twiddling my thumbs and having to go through the process several times and still fail to achieve the desired result.

Hi, I'm sorry but that is not within the scope of this disaster.

Okay seriously though, the instructions for flashing the images are in OP, the most reliable means to back up your data
is to use adb provided your phone is rooted, or just copy over from MTP if on Windows.
Firmware flashing is covered elsewhere. If i have the chance I will do a How-to for that exercise in general but in General.

At the risk of sounding like a complete novice, do I follow your steps after having flashed the MM FTF. obviously utilising the correct ftf, in this case the Aussie one?

Disregard what I said, I am able now to recall the process of doing this for Lollipop. I do appreciate your help though and your work.

M,
completely alright, i was completely confused , this being my first sony device EVER. :silly:
I don't actually think the Aussie firmware is an issue, when I got this device it had TW firmware installed.
In /oem partition are your default localization settings
/oem/system-properties/config.prop

These are the steps I followed
Flash the e6883 image file using fastboot
Boot into system and use those adb commands as specified by the OP
Then fastboot flash the recovery file
Then go to recovery and flash the latest superSU
Reboot
This should get your ROM rooted.
Thank you!
Have you flashed twrp 3? Do you have stock marshmallow 6.0?
Thanks again!

Neil,
from Post #2 Xperia Z5 Premium Dual E6833/E6883 => satsuki_dsds_diffconfig
Although i'm not sure about the ramdisk, do you have the firmware ftf ? If yes it's the same routine, extract the kernel.sin from
the archive and post it where i can get to it.
NO MEGA ! DIE CLOUD DIE !!
I think i want to put that on a t-shirt. xD

Update 32.2.A.0.305 to 32.2.A.5.11

Hello Guys,
actually i am a total noob at this because i had not much time to get in the topic.
So i want to Update my Device because its showing me the Update aviable massage.
I have:
ROM: [email protected]
Recovery: TWRP Installed
Kernel: Androplusv40
Bootloader: Unlocked
Can anybody give me advise how i can update to the newest stock rom?
I guess their is no .zip to flash in recovery? I want to keep my recovery and root if that is possible.
Thanky you!
Greetings Abgeloust.
You cant keep recovery or root through an upgrade but it shouldent be too hard to re-root
You can use flashtool to flash a newer FTF without data loss and then you can also use flashtool to flash a elf or img kernel (usually has recovery included with xperias)
If ye need some more explaining then let me know

you can open something called xperifirm via flashtool (if you have a newer version) it should be a little XF icon somewhere along the tool bar
once that is open you can pick your device from the list on the left and then click check all at the top right, to download your FTF you click a version from a country/region and then click on the right where it says avaliable firmware ON a avaliable firmware, from there you can download and will be automatically added to Flashtool when finished.
