[Q] Unlocking bootloader with a Mac...
thanks for the post. ive been reading hundreds of pages here in preparation to root my phone (XPERIA E/c1504.) i know that unlocking the bootloader is step one, so your guide is pretty helpful, but i'm on a mac! does this change any part of the process?
3)- download ADBDRIVER and install adb drivers installer on pc,open it and connect your phone to pc and install the adb drivers.
4)- download flashtool ANDROXYDE and install on pc.
i know i can get androxyde for mac, but is there a mac version of the adbdriver program?
7)- go here SONYMOBILE .
fill your details and then check your email inbox for bootloader key.
if you contact sony for the bootloader key, unlock, then lock back if you have to return it to them for warranty issues, etc., won't they know since you had to get the key from them?
thanks for your help! im a definite beginner but learning a lot from this site!
The latest Flashtool (v0.9.11.0) has "BLU" menu to make Lock/Unlock bootloader more easier.
the simple step :
1. Set up Flashtool to be ready for your device.
2. Refer to the SONY link provided in OP, and get your bootloader key
3. Connect your phone to Flashtool.
4. Click the "BLU" and follow the step.
hope that work for Xperia E,.

here you go for adb for mac - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1917237

okay your next question is quite good. first when I unlocked my bootloader and faced bootloop. I got my phone a Sony service centre. the guy there took my phone on warranty and tried to reinstall software through sus (works only on locked bootloader). then when he was unsuccessful he told me software modified and I got my phone back
so I don't think you will have any issue with warranty.
you can get any Xperia phone's bootloader key in your inbox just by knowing its imei.
so no issues at all.
P.S : rooting can also be done on a locked Xperia e

Hey there, i have rooted my phone using SRS Root, unlocked my bootloader. But whenever i tried to flash CM10 Rom, the cmd or flashtool keeps telling me ''The device is not ROOTED''. it says my device is not rooted?bullsh*t !. please help, im still a newb at this.
p/s. i've also bricked my phone once, but i did unbricked it. after that, whenever i want to flash using fastboot, it says my device is not rooted. could bricking it be the problem?
Switch off the phone
Extract the CM10 update.zip
Reboot into fastboot (press Vol + key while inserting USB cable)
Kick the Lighting button -> Fastboot Mode -> Flash Kernel.
Chose the boot.img from above extracted file.
Reboot the Phone, keep continously pressing vol - key while the Sony Logo appears.
Install from Zip, chose the complete update.zip from above.
Wipe Cache/Data.
Your done!

This trick worked on Xperia e1 so maby work on E3 also.
Does this method works on Xperia E3 D2206/D2243??
Does this method work with Xperia E3 D2206/D2243 ?? @vinay What do you think?
I am telling this because around a half month ago, I get rooted in my phone (D2206 model) using D2203 boot img file. Thanks for all
@lexiyuri I believe you can flash lollypop aosp and use this method to root it.
I wanna tell you that D2212 root method work on d2202 cause it supports it's kernel. Now sony released 4.4.4 on d2202 and I,ve flashed d2202 FTF on my D2212 and it is working like charm.
And an FTF contains
Boot
System
Fotakernel
Userdata
And may more.
But aosp only contains userdata.img system.img boot.img and I bet it will work.
Cause in FTF we need all partition,s compatible but in aosp just 3 and if you see cycle of phone boot you only need one compatible and it is boot which is already compatible.

D2203 - connected in fastboot mode -
Hi, I've tried this 6 times and each time I execute command 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' - command says waiting for device and then after 30 seconds, my phone boots up as normal - nothing happens.
Is there anyone here who knows what the problem might be?
Thanks

problem might be driver,s or usb cable.
change usb cable and install fastboot drivers then try again.

After flashing the second image to get root, yes you have root, but no CWM recovery anymore . . . . . . . . .
So you can't flash the google apps zip to your phone.

Camera Issues
I don't know if this tread is still active.
But ive followed the tutorial all the way through and really impresses with how straightforward it was.
However I cant see a camera app and when I install one (lets say google camera) it says "camera has stopped working!"
Any advice?

Camera is not working. It is broken deep inside kernel. So wait for developer,s to fix it.

Realme have given the bootloader unlock service in Realme 1 but anyone knows how to unlock bootloader and root Realme 1.
They have pushed the update for some devices , contains bootloader Unlock support.
Yet they still didn't give any tool to unlock or procedure, need to wait a few days for that, this company software support is very delaying.
They have released the guide now and unlocking bootloader took me about 30 mins.

Can't boot into fastboot after unlocking
Hi, can anyone help me with this. I unlocked my bootloader successfully. But after that when I am trying to get into fastboot mode I am not able to do so. Whenever I run "adb reboot fastboot" phone restarts and on the restart logo screen I get a message saying -
"Orange state- this device can't be trusted as it is unlocked.
Reboot in 5 sec"
And then the device gets booted to normal mode. I even tried to rerun the indepth app to get into fastboot mode but that also not redirecting to fastboot mode. App says - "You can only apply to exit in depth test after carryin out bootloader lock operation in fastboot mode"
Now, the problem is if I can't go to fastboot, I can't flash anything and I can't relock my bootloader. Any help would be appreciated.
P.S I already enagle usb debugging after unlocking the bootloader and I could see the device in adb devices command.
First you need to update Your Phone to CPH1861EX_11.A.29 Then You can unlock With this Guide https://romprovider.com/2019/03/unlock-bootloader-realme-1/
CPH1861EX_11.A.29 Firmware update Link: https://romprovider.com/2019/03/cph1861ex_11-a-29-realme-1/

Press all 3 vol up,down and power button simultaneously till phone shuts down.
It happened because your adb and fastboot was not configured properly.

Rooting only requires flashing magisk or super su using a custom recovery like twrp. twrp can be made without the kernel sources.
Edit : it seems device sources are required for TWRP. That's why realme 2 pro got it so quickly because they released lite kernel sources with the bootloader unlock update for it.

until and unless realme released its kernel source, it is not possible to install twrp recovery, since to make twrp for realme1 , kernel source is needed.
