First! very good. Can you also provide stock kitkat kernel?
EDIT: In setting, it does not show permissive status. Is it normal?

EDIT:
I dont know where is the information present in "Settings" but its not in the kernel, maybe in build.prop...
You can try with your pc, and check if you get Adb connection

Can u modify the kernel so the n900t and the n900w8 and the n900a can use it

Nop. There are no sources yet
The changes, are only in ramdisk. Sources are not necessary for this.

It's for Permissive status on SELinux. If you have nothing good to say how about you don't say anything at all? Or you read the actual OP before you make a stupid remark!

Did you also read the part in the op "to allow adb connection with root" or you didn't read it either.
For me that is already available with the stock kernel and was just wondering what the op meant by it.

New bootloader for open devices (now with real recovery)

Hi all,
I have a great news
http://developer.sonymobile.com/201...for-a-range-of-unlocked-xperia-devices-video/
Bootloader is compatible with open devices roms and also enables real recovery (Volume Down + Power)
to flash recovery partition on device you have to
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Happy Cooking
J
PS.
in case latest software does not appear just press "all Services"
flash latest software available and on top new loader

Just tested, and it works good.
Not having separated recovery is probably the thing that bothered me most in Sony development.
And can confirm PM on 3.10 is working now.
Thanks jerpelea!

Bootloader version you can see in EMMA after you plug in the phone, about certain versions, I don't know.

@galaxyfreak
I managed to flash New bootloader and then "recovery.img" on it!
So is that recovery stays there no matter what firmware/kernel i put on the phone?

Why "CM Recovery"?
CWM is all the time being the Best and popular recovery and have a backup option!
Maybe wrong thread to ask such questions?

It is a wrong thread but screw it.
Because I build CM ROMs and CM recovery is default there.
I do agree that they've dropped CWM way too early, but I think it's not compatible with 5.0 zip layout, so it's either this or TWRP (which is kind of an OmniROM thing).

Hello I like to ask you is the new recovery that you provided in your CM12.1 thread compatible with stock official kitkat roms?

It should work.

@galaxyfreak
OK thanks for the reply. I have used the fastboot method to flash the recovery and found no change to that part of the system.

Just flashed new bootloader and yes: PM is working now with latest kernel/AOSP.
Thank you!!
Further testing will be done and posted in other M2 forums.

Can all versions of Xperia Z5 be rooted?

I'm going to buy a used Xperia Z5. To confirm, can ALL VERSIONS be rooted and have a custom recovery (such as TWRP) installed on them? It would be E6653 but not sure which country it is made in or designed for.

before buying just check for bootloader status by typing in the dialer app
*#*#service#*#* > Service info> Configuration
In this section it should be like this under
Rooting Status:
Booloader unlock allowed : yes
if its like that then you are good to go.

so there's no way to root if it doesn't allow unlocking the bootloader?

Where to download European firmware?

Hello,
My Mate 9 is running C636B110 (Asia firmware) and I have just received BL unlock code.
After BL unlock (wipe), I would like to go for TWRP, Root & xposed too if available.
Where can I download latest full European firmware and can it be flash by fastboot or other methods?

Nothing! Use the in App buttons to find IMEI & Serial no. Somehow the auto detect Serial is different than Sys info.
The code works as Bootloader show red Unlock message instead now.

Help Unlocking bootloader

Hi there
I want to unlock my bootloader and I tried through sony's website but I could not succeed.
How can I unlock it without sony's guiding website and installing Android Studio.
Any help plz?

Hello Billabomb75
First check if you can unlock your bootloader by entering *#*#7378423#*#* in the Phone app.
Then click service info and then click on configuration.
Under rooting status it should say bootloader unlock allowed to unlock the bootloader.
If it says bootloader unlock not allowed you cannot unlock your bootloader.

If you would like to backup your TA partition for warranty then check this forum https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292598.
The first thing to do to unlock your bootloader is to go to this https://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/unlock-yourboot-loader/ website and choose your device, then after clicking continue you will need to enter your email for a confirmation email and tick agree to terms and conditions and click submit.
After opening the link in the confirmation email it will ask for IMEI which you should enter in and tick the two agree to terms and conditions and click submit.
Now check your email again it should have the unlock code for your device.
Finally launch flashtool and click on unlock icon, then connect device in fastboot mode( if connected then disconnect phone from PC, power off device, while pressing volume up button connect your phone to your PC), now it should ask you for your unlock code which you can copy and paste from the email Sony sent you and then click unlock.
This should unlock your bootloader.
