[REQUEST] Xperia Z3 Unlocked Bootloader D6603 Stock Lollipop 5.0.1 ROOT

Dear XDA members.
I've looked all over XDA for a rooted 5.0.1 firmware but I couldn't find it anywhere, even though roots for 5.0.2 and 5.1.x are abundantly available.
I have a Sony Xperia Z3 - D6603 - Unlocked Bootloader. I am a NOOB when it comes to development, yet I am very familiar with flashing FTFs using Flashtools, I am also familiar with ADB commands, accessing and using different recoveries, and installing modified ROMS.
I would like you to assist me in one topic or the other:
1- Either, guide me to the firmware number of the Z3 5.0.1 or 5.0 FTF and teach me how to prepare it to be pre-rooted with the latest SuperSU, so I would prepare the modified stock firmware my self and flash-it on my phone.
2- Or, if possible or already available and I couldn't find it, please link me to a Z3 D6603 5.0 or 5.0.1 pre-rooted zip so I could flash it.
I am very grateful for your assistance
PS: I posted this before in XDA assist, it had 46 views but no replies. I am hoping that here it would be more interesting to you. I am not sure whether I should post this as an XDA: DEVDB since I am not starting a development project. If this post is wrongly placed, please notify me.

AFAIK there is no 5.0.1 android for the z3.
You can flash either kitkat or 5.0.2 lollipop.
Why do you want 5.0.1 anyways, I don't see a reason.
This is the wrong section for questions/requests BTW. Use q/a section.

Thank you for your response.
I need a 5.0.1 version to run a service that is only compatible up to 5.0.1.
Thank you for the assistance, and sorry for posting in the wrong place. I posted in the Q/A section and I didn't get any answers.
I will request a Mod to remove the post from here.
Best!

Build your own ROM then for example, or look if there is one with that. Stock is not available with that version AFAIK, they skipped it.

[Completed] [Q] Problem with backup

Hello.
I have a problem ..... ¬_¬ obvious ... I made a backup of the phone with droidtools, but I did not create the "user data.img", "cache.img", "system.img" files .
And now I can not restore my phone. :crying::crying::crying:
And I've searched a lot, but there is no rom for my phone.
Is there any way to fix this?
Thanks in advance :good:
Note: Translated from Spanish by Google .....

Hola,
Bienvenidos a XDA.
If you were still on stock when you created your backup and you want stock back you can reflash your stock firmware via PC with whatever flashtool is compatible with your device. If you post your device model number I can at least get you pointed in the right direction to finding your answer.

Unfortunately, I am not finding any ROMs for you on XDA. You'll have to find your stock firmware by doing a google search using your device's model number, find it, get it downloaded and flash it from PC with whatever flashtool is for your device.
You can try posting in the forum linked below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help
Good luck.

The tools you use will depend on your device, generally, Linux can be used for manipulating things like that on all android devices but the tools to make use of what you put together in Linux will depend on your device. How to use Linux to package things correctly for your device would be better answered by those that have your device, I am not familiar with your device so those kinds of things I couldn't tell you.
You should post your question in the link I gave you, the members there may have more answers for you than I do. There are too many kinds of android devices out there to learn them all, its best to find those that have learned that device.

[Completed] Acer Liquid Z630 root (Linux)

Hi everyone! Looked at the threads about rooting the Acer Liquid Z630, but couldn't find any of these discussing exactly what I need.
I'll provide as much information as possible, but please let me know if I missed something.
- I'm running Android 5.1 on this device,updates seem to have stopped there.
- On the bootloader the terminal continuously says waiting for device, like not recognizing it. The phone has very little information on it (2 lines actually not saying anything useful imo).
- Found a link about the bootloader part using Windows on following page (due to being new I can't post the link in a BB tag yet, I'll be working on that later, promise!).
unlock-bootloader.net/how-to/unlock-bootloader-acer-liquid-z630/
- On my laptop I'm running Arch Linux, which I will be using for the root process.
- Trying to unlock the bootloader - rooting the device - upgrade to Android M.
Thanks in advance for your help!

@Vatsal Thanks for your attention! I did read the thread you mentioned before, but it doesn't seem to mention anything about the bootloader loop. As I'm stuck with that particular piece in the puzzle, do you have any manual specifically aiming for that part?

Blu Life One X2/ Mini - Development

Welcome.
Very short about me: Most of you know me as ieatgravity, I ported TWRP Recovery a little less than a year ago and was able to achieve root on the Life One X2. Since then I have developed guides, auto rooting tools, roms, and I maintain BLOX2.com a dedicated site for all Life One X2 and Mini Development. I apologize for the long absence. However it seems as if this community has really bloomed from where I left off. I want to thank EVERYONE who has supported this development for our phone over the last year, whether it be financially, simple encouragement, thanks, prayers, or you even helping develop something new. I tried my best to credit everyone involved, though many have come and gone we hope YOU will take an interest and try your hand at developing!
As of now we have all been using the first thread we had for our device as a catch all for development, apps, support, general q&a's. Though it has worked for us up until now, a few of us have decided that we should have a dedicated thread to development ideas, topics and questions to keep everything organized.
For now this thread will support both the X2 & Mini. So when you post, please specify the device.
Table of contents:
List of current development to date
Great "How To's" and Guides
With all of that said, here is a consolidated list of all development to this date. If you don't see something on here please let me know and I will update it.

In the next post I will go over methods we have used to create everything. If you have any recommended methods on porting or how to do something feel free to add them. I will be updating and adding to this OP as new things come to light. Feel free to use this thread to post questions about or to show off your new development.
as always, Happy modding

Personally I haven't tried. As I'm still running on marshmallow, but from what I gathered from the wiko thread i started months ago the auto root tools were not successful. So for the time being there is no root for 7.1.1

I confirm we can't flash anything in fastboot mode on ufeel prime 7.1.1.
We are looking for since September. Impossible to root.

Has anyone attempted using Kingroot.apk (NOT KINGOROOT) to root then use a root flasher like flashify, rashr, official twrp app, to flash the custom recovery. From there root using magisk manager patch the boot.img, reboot into twrp then flash the patched_boot.img to boot partition. While still in TWRP, navigate to the kingroot.apk location within /system/app. Delete the kingroot.apk and reboot. At this point you should have a working systemless root without the sketchiness of using kingroot.
If anyone has the time to test this out let me know the results please.

Hi ieatgravity ? about yours drax rom, does it work on wiko U Feel Prime? Maybe it's a dummy question but I have my doubts so it's better to ask you (OP) I think ? thanks in advance

Hi guys. I tried another thing in my Ufeel. One week now I have it with Red Wolf custom recovery and Viper_garlic rom 7.1.2 both for Yureka Black running. Everything works fine only with the recovery not. It's working but not 100%? I'm not a developer and I don't have the knowledge and tools for see what can do to better working. I thing sharing this with you guys it's important. And maybe someone with the knowledge (and time) want to see it. I try to get logs from the problems.
ps. Sorry for the bad English ?

New OTA update in France this morning. Version V39, always android 7.1.1. No bugs anymore with delay for unlock phone at reboot. Now fastboot devices is detected but always impossible to unlock. All commands says "unknown command"

Hi guys ? I found one thread for another wiko and it have the same problem but they found a way. I think maybe works for we to but I have no time ( work and new family member ?) maybe someone want to try
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/root-how-to-root-wiko-view-t3740005
Ps- I tried the "Tinno" code in another wiko in nougat and it worked. Hope this is useful

Hello everybody, I just got the BLOX2 Mini and wanted to start working with it. I can see this thread hasn't been updated and that the blox2.com web is down. Can anyone direct me to the best resource available in order to unlock, install TWRP, root, etc. in the Mini, either in XDA or elsewhere? I noticed there's a long thread on the regular sized BLOX2 but I am not completely sure if what is available there will work in the mini.
Thanks!

Lineage 16 for Blu Life One X2 Mini?
Hi ieatgravity,
Are you still out there?
I'm wondering if Lineage 15 or 16 is also available for the Blu Life One X2 Mini?

Need help with Winca s160 android version update

Hello
Many years ago I bought s160 head unit for my hyundai i30
Today after 5 years i desided to install it not too late I guess
Any way it’s android os 4.4 not supported for most apps
Can someone help me to update it at-least to android 5
I will be thankful for you

You have to find a Custom Recovery that's suitable to phone & you have to find a Custom ROM that's suitable to phone.
If both found then in 1st step flash the Custom Recovery, and if success, then in 2nd step flash the Custom ROM by means of the Custom Recovery.

Where i can find this specific rom
Most articles talking about roadnav website but this site is not working
Sorry i am not an expert with that this first time i am trying to update a car head unit
Can you show me the way? Where should I start?

Do a Google search for both a Custom Recovery and a Custom ROM suitable to your phone: can't be so difficult, IMO.

Thanks i did that
It’s so easy for mobile but for car head unite it’s very complicated
As I understand
Rom has to match the model number
Build number the chip type
I didn’t find that custom rom that match with all of them
Any way will keep trying
thank you again

Hi,
Unfortunately S160 RoadNav units are restricted to Android 4.4.4
I have a slightly newer Firmware available but get used to your existing Head Unit Firmware first.
