EDIT : 3 July 2014
Kernel Thread is now Open !
Hi Guys
I've been working on the Xperia C kernel for some weeks now.
( I don't own this device)
-Fixed several build errors by now.
What I need:
- Testers, that own the unlocked boot loader, and have CWM installed.
Reply in this thread, if you wish to test my kernel beta builds, don't PM me please, I already receive a lot of daily PMs.
In an couple weeks ( hope ) the first public build will be sent to testers.
Regards

Bootloader can't be unlocked for XC...
But we have CWM...
I dont think we can flash kernels with locked bootloder

I'd love to be a cellphone guinea pig :good:
@superdragonpt I have some doubts here but before I post them here I just want to clarify that I'm in no way questioning your work...
So here's my doubt
As we know that Xperia C's bootloader is locked and cannot be unlocked. So from where does a custom kernel come in? You can't flash a kernel unless and until the bootloader is unlocked. How would people flash your kernel...? I hope you're getting what I'm trying to ask...

From what I gather some xperia C units came with an unlock bootloader, meaning we can flash an boot.IMG.
There's more info about this on this sub forum.
That's why I posted the mandatory requirements of having :
Cwm
Unlocked boot loader

No offence dude, but that is one of the most retarded question I've read yet.
Why do you have a petition-signature regarding unlocking bootloader if you dont know if its unlocked or not :silly:
Very few people take the time to go through the forum and its threads and ACTUALLY read the information. And they go spamming basic questions instead of clicking a few clicks and getting the relevant information themselves.
Regarding your question-----
dial *#*#7378423#*#*
check the service info, then configuraion,
Check the rooting status

I fear it would be very hard for you
since this Phone is almost unknown
so it will be very hard to get the unlock code of the sim
just call the provider or find some one who unlocks huawei phones
but it will cost you about 10$-15$

Hello, thanks for the guide. I'd like to know: did anybody try with the U8950N-1, because in any forum i get to find something this model is not appearing in the ones tested. May it be substantially equivalent to the U8950N-51?
Greetings..
Hi I would like to ask for your help on working with my Xperial L. It is free phone from my network plan so when I checked the unlock bootloader is set to NO. that is my problem at the moment. Is it still possible to root, and port a kernel/custom rom even if the bootloader cannot be unlocked? I hope you could give me the proper steps so I can arrive at the same set up as yours.
Here are the details of my unit at the moment:
Model - Xperial L C2105
Android version - 4.1.2
Build number - 15.0.A.2.17
Bootloader unlock: not allowed
I haven't started anything yet as I'm unsure which to steps to follow, hope if there's someone who had the same details can help me to root and port a kernel/rom.
Many Thanks in Advance!

Yes you can root & also install ROM too without unlocking (Which is risky). Kernel needs UBL so you can never have kernel for your device(AFAIK). Try to get it unlocked from your vendor or ask him for a replacement for your phone and get a Unlock able phone.

I live in Japan and have the same model. As you said its the Xperia Z3 for Japan and unfortunately it can't be unlocked and is therefore unrootable at present so there are no roms that can be loaded on it. The likelihood of finding some way to unlock it and root it are very very slim.

Thanks for the encouragement. I was pretty sure the second link was an unlock key for a Docomo-brand SOL26 so was hesitant to use that key.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think we have the same model and carrier (AU-KDDI?) :highfive:
So, you're recommending that first link root method? If I'm hearing that guy correctly he's rooting without unlocking the bootloader which sounds good to me.
Apparently I can keep my DRM keys and everything else intact by rooting that way. I'm not really interested in trying out new roms or anything (did enough of that when
I still had my HTC Desire HD ) so it seems like the best way to go. I'd be more than grateful for any more advice you can give about rooting our model and again huge
thanks for all your help. If you're ever in Kyoto I'll buy you a beer!

Yes, I've got SOL26 too
Sure, you can root without unlock bootloader (I wonder how to unlock it because that's impossible with AU-KDDI or carrier model when unlock bootloader status allow = No)
Because you do not unlock bootloader, so no harm to your DRM key.
You must follow as the guide to root because you cannot root directly with AU-KDDI firmware.
By the way, I'm not in Kyoto but in Ho Chi Minh

If your bootloader status is unlock not allowed,you can try the ROMs which are for locked bootloader otherwise you can unlock your bootloader can flash any rom

Hello
I have oppo f7 which have the exact same specs as realme 1
Unfortunately , the update didn't roll out for my phone ,and I don't think I will really get it since oppo doesn't seem to want anyone to root the f series
Can I download the OTA for the realme 1 and flash it on my phone ?
Or will I brick it ?
I wish someone would give me insights as I really want to unlock my oppo f7
Is it possible to make custom recovery without kernel source, after the bootloader unlock?

Yes it is possible. Kernel sources are needed to make a stable custom rom. But custom recoveries like TWRP can be made if bootloader is unlocked. You can go as far as rooting your phone and maybe install GSI roms. But those roms may not be stable.

Yes it is possible. Kernel sources are needed to make a stable custom rom. But custom recoveries like TWRP can be made if bootloader is unlocked. You can go as far as rooting your phone and maybe install GSI roms. But those roms may not be stable.

I guess we do need to device source code to compile the TWRP. My bad I forgot. We need the source code so we can go somewhere otherwise just an unlocked bootloader is useless.
