Hi , I just get Xperia J and I'm noob on Xperia J forum. I searched all day and I didn't find the best way to root phone,to unlock bootloader- i have 13w04 code,is it ok to unlock bootloader,and please post all links. And yes one thing I need is what is the best rom ,can be also custom for Xperia J,post link?
Thank you ! It's hard when you know all things about xda x8 thread and then you get new phone and I'm noob again :laugh::good:
Info:
ST26i
4.0.4
11.0.A.7.5
Is it safe to root and unlock bootloader with flashtool,on x8 I did all things with flashtool ??? There's no drivers for xperia j for flashtool! I'm really scared,I don't want to get hard brick
Unlock bootloader via sony site, root with unlockroot.com, make sure you DL the unlockRoot Pro version, you don't need to buy it, just DL it.Run it afterwards, go next on everything but the adware it tells you to install, just press cancel on that(toolbars and such).After it is installed connect your device with debugging on, launch unlockroot, and click root, select your device, let the app do its magic, afterwards you'll get a popup about a powersaver app, press no, and on the next screen it will ask you to reboot your phone, reboot it and you're rooted.
Flashtool here is used only for reflashing stock fw when you mess up/reflashing kernels.It doesn't play a that much important role.

Thanks man! What about custom roms are better then stock? On x8 custom roms was better then stock. But on xperia J stock rom is great! I buy phone yesterday and I have 50%,they say to me that I must to use phone until battery die,I listen to music,call ,wifi,fb,temple run 2... After one day I get 1% and I left phone,I didn't using it,after 30 minutes my phone have 2% . Now it's still have 2%. :laugh: I can't wait that my battery die,I'll charge phone to 100% and I'll root my phone,maybe soon I'll unlock bootloader
CM is the only available ROM atm for J if i'm not mistaken, but before you flash the one from the FXP topic, please try adfad666's CAF kernel one.If it works as it should, you could get the ball rolling and get better kernels for the J, and if later possible ,all devices.It is also CM.I have a Tipo atm, but CM has a huge effect on the battery(lower standby time, etc)
To be honest, I only use it cause it has a working DSPManager and I can't DSP to work on a stock ROM.
I forgot to mention this before, just before you unlock bootloader, type this in dialpad:
*#*#7378423#*#*
Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with unlocking bootloader.If it's no/it's not there, you cannot unlock and do not attempt to unlock.

I'll stay on stock rom then,I'll just root phone and delete all unused apps from system Because battery time is very,very,very good!:good:
One question: If I unlock bootloader,will be phone faster or what? Do I need to flash custom kernels..?
If you unlock the bootloader, all your data on phone(not on memory card) will be erased, so make sure you backup what you have.After that you will be able to flash custom kernels and such.I recommend unlocking bootloader and flashing Rachit Rawat's Vengeance kernel in the original android development section, for J.Try 1.33 in the mediafire folder, I see it's only for J.Flash kernel via fastboot with flashtool.Once you flash that kernel, you can also root it with one of the available zips in the thread's 1st post, I recommend SuperSU.
It has a OC to 1.3ghz, which reported by a handful of users so far, makes the J lagfree.

If I'll flash one of this kernel,what will be diferent?
The thread says what the kernel features, most important the OC function.Don't worry, it's tested and it's stable on the J.
Try 1.33 from the link in the 2nd post.

Ok,thank you very much for helping me! What about if I want to get back stock kernel,can you send me working one link?
And can I root and unlock botloader on 11.0.a.7.5???
There is no need for custom roms at the moment. We need to wait till developers make some good rom.
Unlocking the bootloader is just adding the permisson to flash custom roms which have nothing to do with stock rom or custom kernels. Will not affect your phone. You should just root it.
If you are not satisfied with the performance of your phone then flash custom kernel. But they are not complete or stable yet.
But you really need to root it to delete unused apps, install custom roms which are stock rom mods (for both bootloaders), install some apps, mods.
Once you flash the new kernel you can root with one of the zips in the thread.Yes, that fw is rootable.Just flash kernel and use one of the zips.I'm recommending the kernel hard because it is THAT good.For the stock kernel, I don't have it as it is in the stock FW.Let me DL it and I'll upload the stock for you.

Okey Because I have x8 before and without unlocked bootloader stock rom was crap!
Can I root phone firmware 11.0.a.7.5???
Stock FW is rootable as I mentioned before with unlockroot.com's UnlockRoot Pro, which you can DL for free, just press Download instead of buy now.Install it, cancel on the adware stuff, launch it, connect device with debugging on, and you're good to go.

Stock rom is still crap, just there is nothing better at the moment.
Developers working on it...Till then wait.
We can now only mod Stock rom to make it better.
Or use incomplete versions of stock rom which have serious bugs and are worse than stock.
Okey I root phone and unlock bootloader. I want to ask if I flash cstom kernel,can I use it on stock rom? Or custom kernels are just for cm roms?
Hello
(sorry for my english)
I'm a noob in this world and i need some help.
In the past few days i've been reading a lot of posts in this forum but to a noob it's a little bit hard to understand somethings.
So, i'm using this topic to ask some questions. If there is another thread that answer all my questions and explain things for a newbie, feel free to tell me and apologize to create this new thread.
I have a smartphone android, Galaxy S2 with android 4.1.2, all locked to the provider (I know that there is a specific forum for this smartphone and i read some threads).
Now, i want to make it a ROOT and maybe try new ROM's.
Let's start with the questions:
-To make a root, it's better with kernel exchange or with a simple file?
-In the future, if i want to install another ROM, having the root made from the kernel that is with the phone (using a file in the SD Card) may cause some problems? To do this it's better to go to root insecure kernel?
-Why i need to change kernel? which is the benefits?
-It's possible to restore to the previous kernel?
-What are necessary to backup the ROM that actually i have?
-Changing one time the kernel, i can install all the roms i want or i need to install another kernel's?
Thank you for your atention, and one more time, sorry for my english!
@pedrocrv,
Your English is fine! Don't worry about that, man.
Here is my opinion.
Generally speaking, you don't need to replace your kernel. Replacing the kernel can both drastically change your device's performance for the better, as well as render your device completely unusable, which in Android terminology is called "bricked". If your device is "bricked", it is completely useless as an electronic device, making it nothing more than a brick.
But to get back on topic, it's normally only developers like myself who need to replace the kernel, and even then only every once in a while. It's somewhat unsafe for new users, because one little mistake can lead to a huge problem. Trust me, I've seen them here on XDA myself. Don't become one of them.
However, using and flashing ROMs is a whole different story. ROMs normally change aesthetic parts of your device, like the look and features. If you follow the instructions given to install the specific ROM very well, it is practically impossible to brick your device.
If you find a good ROM, go for it. It's almost definitely going to change your device in a very good way.
So to wrap up this post, basically (for you):
Replace the kernel = bad idea, don't do it until you have more experience
Install/flash a ROM = a great idea, go for it if you find a nice one!
The most important thing to remember, however, is to m a k e a b a c k u p. Once you make a backup, you can mod your system however you want without fear of bricking.
Hope this helps.
@thenookieforlife3
Thank you for your explanation!
I understand what you said, but in one thread of my smartphone i see a lot of people talking about rooting their phones but for this is needed to use another kernel.
I want to root my device, and in a near future maybe install one ROM of CyanogenMod (and try others too), but i'm afraid of rooting because that story of changing the device kernel and using Odin... I don't want a brick
Another question:
If i find a file to root my device without Odin, but i don't have the 100% that it's the file indicated for my device, there is some problem if I try to root with that?
And, as i see, there is some diferent files, how i choose one? it's indifferent or one file have specific itens that another don't have?
Thanks a lot!

like Thenookieforlife3 said you do not need a kernel, you dont need one to root or install roms/custom recovery's, they are just for tweaking things or being able to overclock. So, first of all, you are going to have to tell us your model number (or which carrier your phone is on) so we can direct you to the right root guide, s2's are fairly easy to root so dont be scared we will hold your hands the entire way!

This. ^
We can definitely give you a hand, but we do need a few details to make sure everything works out.
hello again!
@Trozzul and @thenookieforlife3,
Thank you!
So there is the information asked for: (see the attachment for more details)
Bandbase: I9100BULS1
Kernel: 3.0.31-889555 [email protected] #3 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 31 14:48:54 KST 2013
Compilation Number: JZO54K.I9100XWLSD
I have another questions to do:
-What vary from file to file on root?
-What is a AOSP ROM? Where I can find a rom that is almost empty of trash, like i think it is a Stock Rom?
-In the information given above, wich is more important to see if I can install that rom? Can I install a rom that is not XWLSD?
Many thanks!
Answers to your questions are in red.
Thank you! You're very welcome!

Compilation Number: JZO54K.I9100XWLSD
I have another questions to do:
-What vary from file to file on root? Normally not much changes from root method to root method - basically, if anything does, it's negligible to you, meaning that it won't really matter. What does matter is that the root method actually roots your phone.
-What is a AOSP ROM? ASOP stands for Android Open Source Project, and it pretty much means that it's a ROM that is as minimalistic and "free of trash", as you say, as you can get it.
-Where I can find a rom that is almost empty of trash, like i think it is a Stock Rom? Here are a few good ones:
AOSP NeatROM for S2
CarbonRom KitKat for S2
SuperNexus for S2
-In the information given above, which is more important to see if I can install that rom? Can I install a rom that is not XWLSD? The ROMs that you can install will be labelled "S2" and "I9100". Don't try to install any other ROMs unless they have those labels.
Hope these help!
I understand what you said!
For example, the AOSP NeatROM have a version that is not AOSP. What it means?
To Install other ROM's i need to root first?
And now, how i simply root by a file?
@pedrocrv,
Answers to your questions in red.
For example, the AOSP NeatROM have a version that is not AOSP. What it means? That means that there is another version of that ROM that is more full of extra features, a.k.a "trash".
To Install other ROM's i need to root first? Yes.
And now, how i simply root by a file? It depends from method to method - some methods are apps that you install and then hit a "big red button", some methods are files that you have to flash through a custom recovery, for example, ClockworkMod. Basically, just read and follow the instructions that come with each root method.
again, thank you!
So, if i find some thread that talk about a file to root, it's just follow the instructions and it's done?
how I know that i need a custom recovery? mine doesn't work?
what is flashing?
Thank you for your attention!
@pedrocrv,
Once again, answers to your questions in red.
So, if i find some thread that talk about a file to root, it's just follow the instructions and it's done? Yes, that's right.
how I know that i need a custom recovery? mine doesn't work? The rooting method will tell you in the instructions whether or not you need a custom recovery, and if it does, it will tell you which one to use and how to use it.
what is flashing? Simply put, flashing is installing a file (normally a .zip) that has been specially formatted via a recovery method (custom or stock).
Thank you for your attention! No problem!

im sure we should introduce him to cyanogenmod, cyanogenmod can be more stock than Asop most of the time, Asops nice but there are most of the time little additions that the creator likes, plus if cyanogenmod installer is compatible for your device he shouldn't have todo much!
@pedrocrv , im not trying to steal his thunder but im trying my best to explain it to you too if he left anything out, otherwise if you guys want me to i will back out .
Custom recovery's are basically a way of getting out of a bad spot and being able to Flash new Roms, if you get stuck in a bootloop (stays stuck at the samsung screen for a very long time, the first time you flash a rom you should let it sit for it can take awhile for the first time you turn it on.) you can most likely get out of the problem and be able to backup your stock firmware if you decide you dont like rooting/custom roms, it does stuff the Stock recovery does not do.
Flashing is basically as thenookieforlife3 said its so you can install Roms, when you hear the term flashing think "installing".
@Trozzul and @thenookieforlife3,
Thank you for both atention! i'm learning a lot of things with both of you!
I know cyanogen, and as i search in the wiki of cyanogen page i think my phone is compatible.
What I need to do with the installer? And if i use the installer, how I backup my actual ROM to future problems or needs to come to origins?
stock ROM-> My actual ROM?
Custom ROM-> a new one
So, if i understand everything:
With my actual recovery i'm not able to install other ROM's. But, with my recovery, i'm able to root my device unless the root method needs a custom recovery and it say's how to install it right?
With the root by my recovery, i'm able to install other ROM's but I will need to further install a custom recovery right?
Many thanks :good:

Yes your stock rom is what the device comes with when you buy it. every device method of being able to get custom roms is different, so when you do get a new phone always do your research, sometimes you can root it and dont need a custom recovery (thats only if you want to stay on stock rom) sometimes you need a custom recovery to get root. with my S2 what i needed todo was get a custom recovery first, installing cyanogenmod already comes rooted so you can make a backup of your stock rom without rooting it.
so i dont also exactly know which device you have, where are you from? it looks spanish in your phones setttings with that screenshot, region is important. is it a GT-i9100 or a GT-i9100b? take out the battery and tell us what the model number says there. this is important for the cyanogenmod installer.

There's very little difference between the i9100 and the i9100b, but the difference is enough that there is a separate CyanogenMod installer for both models.

@thenookieforlife3 i think the cyanogenmod installer installs a CWM right for his question on it? also look at these stated on the Cyanogenmod wiki for the GT-i9100
WARNING:
Some second-generation Samsung Exynos devices are potentially susceptible to a "superbrick" caused by performing a factory reset with the stock kernel, which effectively kills the internal memory in the device. It is highly recommended you do not perform this operation while using a stock kernel for safety reasons. To make sure you aren't running the stock kernel (only needed when coming from the stock ROM), fully install CM without performing a factory reset and reboot to recovery before you perform the factory reset.
WARNING:
If you used a non-official method to remove a provider lock, your /efs partition may become corrupt! It is highly recommended you make a backup of this for safe keeping before attempting to modify your device, especially if you plan to remove such a lock.
WARNING:
The newest Gapps package (20140606) is too big for the /system partition of i9100. Please use the 20140105 package instead. This message will disappear when this is resolved.

Should we tell him to run a benchmark and tell us his CPU?
@pedrocrv (Edit:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.antutu.ABenchMark download this app real fast and tell us what CPU you have) so the cyanogenmod installer will be the easiest thing for you, even though installing a custom rom is insanely easy this is basically a one click method, note that all of your data will be deleted so back that up somewhere where you can save it and put it on your phone when its done installing. so as i asked thenookieforlife3i believe that the cyanogenmod installer will also install the latest and best custom recovery for you (CWM: Clockworkmod will be a huge term like CM: Cyanogenmod you will hear a lot, they are both very popular for being the most stable.) it would be stupid enough for it not to install it as well, but if it does not we will show you an easy app that will install a custom recovery, basically one click just like cyanogenmod. now as i looked on the cyanogenmod site, the installer IS compatible with your phone and will install a Stable version of Cyanogenmod 10.2 which is android 4.3. note that the highest right now is CM 11 which is android 4.4.4 kit kat but right now is what we call a "Nightly".
i will try my best to explain this to you, there are four stages that cyanogenmod puts out i will rate them from lowest to highest: "experiments" "snapshot" "nightly" and "Stable", you only need to worry about nightly and stable, Stable is basically the final product the last update for that android version so its the most stable and with less bugs and this is what you want to aim for, Nightlys are Nightly generated updates that update bugs every night asked by people like us to be fixed, Honestly Nightlys are Very stable and are perfectly fine.
Now you might like Cyanogenmod 10.2, personally a lot of my phones run 10.2 if its available, you might like kit kat (Cyanogenmod 11) better instead, honestly try out 10.2 first and if you dont like it, you can update to Cyanogenmod 11 (they push updates out like how samsung would push out updates.) without deleting your information on CM 10.2, im sorry if i confused you at all please ask a lot of questions if needed!

Yes, installing CyanogenMod installs ClockworkMod as the default recovery.
Yes, let's have him run a benchmark and tell us the results.

Again, thank you for your patience!
I'm now running the benchmark!
Let's put new question's..
-With CM 10.2, it comes with root, and how to unlock the SIM?
-With CM 10.2, in wich phase of the installation I will be able to backup my stock ROM?
-Imagine that after sometime I want to go back to my stock ROM, What I need to do, because i will have another recovery?
-WIth the CM 10.2 I will have my RAM memory more free?
In the attachment are the images of the test
thank you again!
Pedro
@pedrocrv,
As always, answers to your questions in red.
-With CM 10.2, it comes with root, and how to unlock the SIM? @Trozzul, if you'd please answer this question, that would be great, because I don't know much about SIM unlocking.
-With CM 10.2, in wich phase of the installation I will be able to backup my stock ROM? You will want to make a Nandroid backup before you do anything at all in relation to rooting and CyanogenMod.
-Imagine that after sometime I want to go back to my stock ROM, What I need to do, because i will have another recovery? You will use either the "Install update from SD card" or the "Install .zip from SD card" feature. I don't know exactly, but if that time comes, please let me know and I'll do the research necessary to help you out.
-WIth the CM 10.2 I will have my RAM memory more free? It all depends on what apps you have running at one time. I personally use Advanced Task Killer Free to kill apps directly after I'm finished using them, and that frees up a lot of RAM. CM probably overall will make your RAM memory less free, but if you use the app killing trick, you won't ever have a problem with it.
In the attachment are the images of the test Great, thank you for doing that.
Ok so my motherboard is currently fried and I'm not going to be able to buy a new mobo and install ut myself for a while. So Im running stock rooted 4.4.4 on my nexus 5 with elementalx n5 kernel and clockwork recovery touch. Are there any lollipop rooted roms i can flash without using fastboot or anything that requires a pc seeing how mine is out of commission? I would use adb and fastboot and all that if i could but i cant. Also, does lollipop require a new bootloader? If so are there any that are flashable without fastboot? Ive searched but i cant find what im looking for. I need flashable from cwm without pc.
you can flash any of the aosp builds, flash a kernel, and flash supersu, like any other rom. you dont need a computer for that. look in the n5 android development threads.
Im kind of weird i guess? Also, im guessing it's kind of early, but i'm looking for the stock image itself prerooted and busybox and deodexed. I know these will come with time but im just wondering if any are released as opposed to aosp. Also, whats the difference between lrx21o and lrx21m?
Edit: never mind I found the change log for the differences.

Im kind of weird i guess? Also, im guessing it's kind of early, but i'm looking for the stock image itself prerooted and busybox and deodexed. I know these will come with time but im just wondering if any are released as opposed to aosp. Also, whats the difference between lrx21o and lrx21m?

wont come. lollipop needs a kernel that allows root, if you want root. the default lollipop kernel does not allow root. if you want stock, you can flash a zipped stock rom(in the n5 android development section there is 2). if you want root, youll need to flash a lollipop kernel that allows root plus the latest supersu.
Alright thanks. I'll have another look around then and see if i can find something that satisfies me.
