I have VIVO XPlay from now on and gonna root it now.
Thanks for English version of the tools!
zs.vivo.com.cn , clic right 42mb
Thanks, so far so good. Rooted and application restored from my Meizu device's backup.
The only questions for now are:
how to change lockscreen picture and name? I see camomile and "Name" there and no settings to change them. Some additional app should be installed for this customization?
also I'd like to remove this ugly wide "Head Set Applications" bar...
Home screen, slide right and clic theme icon, can download more online
---------- Post added at 05:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:13 PM ----------
you can edit your current unlock scren by, slide down on the picture, slide right and clic + ,you can change name (for all pictures) and add new picture
Thank you, concerning lockscreen avatar and name... What about this?
> I'd like to remove this ugly wide "Head Set Applications" bar...
Could someone please tell, which processes in VIVO Xplay can be safely uninstalled or at least provide their description? There is a lot of bloatware and useless battery drainers as I can see...
I also cannot figure out how to enter Recovery 2e without using cable connection to computer? When I press volume up and power buttons - I get to Recovery 3e, that is not good, because it checks for signatures and other stuff and I cannot apply any custom ROM I have found: only using computer each time and running adb stuff...I thought that I maybe would need to unlock bootloader for that, but running fastboot.oem.unlock.bat brings me to penguin in left top corner and the phone does not reboot itself: it is the same result as I get when I press volume down and power buttons. No key combination to get into Recovery 2e from the phone?

I don't know if I understood you but just to be sure; you get in recovery mode CWM and on reboot TWRP?
I don't think you will like this solution but probably you will get your phone to work again xD (you will lose your data)
First of all you need:
- Android SDK bundle (google it, you will find it) on your Computer
- And a Rom you want to sideload (In your case the Cyanogen Rom)
- Cwm
Follow this steps:
1. go to the SDK bundle folder you downloaded -> go to sdk
-> go to platformform-tools
-> copy your ROM (ZIP-file) inside that folder
-> and name it to ROM.zip (so you won't need to write down a longname in cmd afterwards)
2. go to the SDK bundle folder you downloaded -> go to sdk
-> now press [shift] + [right mouse button] on platformform-tools (folder) to open cmd
3. Reboot your device into recovery mode (use cwm)
4. Go to “Mounts & Storage” and make sure that you can see “Unmount /sdcard/” and “Unmount /system/” (If they do not show this automatically, just press each one once respectively as pressing just toggles Mount and Unmount).
5. Now connect your device to the PC.
6. Once the phone is connected to the PC type “adb devices” in the cmd. If it returns a long alphanumeric string the phone is successfully connected in ADB mode. (if not look out for a usb driver for your phone; most time the problem lies in there)
7. Now type “adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/ROM.zip” (replace the word ROM if didn't named it)
8. This may take a while so be patient.
9. Once the process is complete you’ll see a message like <12345678kb to 1234567kb> on the cmd window.
10. Now unplug the device.
11. Go to the main screen of recovery and perform factory reset, wipe cache partition and then in advance menu wipe Dalvik cache. (Now you will lose your data for sure xD)
12. Now go to install zip from sdcard and choose the zip file you just transferred.
13. Once the process is complete, reboot the device
Hope this will help you.

If you use TWRP there are some similar step by step guides ( maybe you should look for sideload)

So I got to step 4 and I see the mount system but I don't see umount sdcard
Then mount system or skip this part
5,6 and 7 are the most important part.
Can you push the Rom on your phone?

adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/ROM.zip if I dont have the sdcard umonted will this still work?
I know I am repeating myself more or less (because I always edit my posts xD)
Well as long as you can push your file there shouldn't be sny problem

so I wrote the command and it sad "5143kb/s «241840314 bytes in 45.912s»"
then i went install the zip and I can't find it
ok i went and mounted the data , pushed the file and installed it, thank you so much
But now i need to install the stock backup that I did with TWRP
That's pretty weird xD Because you get the message for a successful transfer but can't find the Zipfile.
You could try to push the Zipfile again and don't wipe anything at all (because you already wiped everything) and try to find the Zip file again to flash it.
Btw what does CWM gives you as options if you click install Zip files?

Watch this video (shows you how to change recovery in general):

Sry I am a bit lazy right now xD Came back from work
I followed this guide [GUIDE] MAC Rooting Nexus S (http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-s/general/guide-mac-rooting-nexus-s-t878446) until point
6) Open ROM Manager and choose "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery". At this point you are all set .

As Rom manager rebbot doesn't work, I installed Root checker and it told me thet the phone was not rooted properly. So I decided to follow another guide [HACK] Superboot Method for 2.3.2 (GRH78C) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-s/development/hack-superboot-method-2-3-2-grh78c-t927838).
Now the phone doesn't work! In other words when I press the power button the Google logo screen remains and Android doesn't start.
If i hold volume up and power button I gain the following:
Code:
Fastboot mode
Product name: Hearing
Hw version - rev 52
Bootloader version - I902XXLC2
Baseband version - I902XXKI1
Carrier info - EUR
Serial number - 3035...
Lock state - unlocked
and I can choose:
Code:
[LIST]
[*]Reboot bootloader
[*]Reboot
[*]Recovery
[*]Power off
[/LIST]
I think that the problem is that the phone is looking for the file "install-recovery.sh" that I renamed into "install-recovery.sh.old".
How can I reanimate my Nexus S?

I'm going to put it step by step using the Nexus root tool kit (NRTK)
1. download a flashable recovery of your choice (CWM 6.0.4.3 Philz 6.19.3 or TWRP 2.7.0 or higher on all these)
2. download the kitkat rom you want to install
3. download the Gapps that match the rom you chose ( if a 4.4.2 rom get a 4.4.2 gapps if 4.4.4 then 4.4.4)
4. boot your phone into bootloader / fastboot
5. connect your phone to your pc (it should recognize it)
6. open your NRTK and go to the advanced section and choose to temporarily boot custom recovery (this will be TWRP 2.6.3)
7. ON YOUR PHONE select mount usb
8. ON THE COMPUTER open the device/folder for your phone and create a new file on your SD card ( I called mine " !zip " this kept it ontop of the list of files) and copy the recovery, rom, and kernel to this folder.
9. ON YOUR PHONE unmount usb, return to the main menu screen and select install, find that folder you made and select the recovery zip that you copied and swype to install
10. after it installs (10seconds) return to the main menu, select reboot then reboot recovery ( you may get a warning about not having a rom or su, ignore both)
11. now you are on your KK compatible recovery (nearly there)
12. No matter which recovery you chose find the section to wipe or format your phone (DO NOT WIPE OR FORMAT YOUR SD CARD !!!! this will wipe everything off your phone and may make it hard / impossible to restore) and ONLY wipe or format system, cache, and dalvik partitions. On philz there is an option to wipe to install a new rom (this is a onestep version of the above)
13. return to the main menu page and select install, choose your rom and install, then your gapps and install ( if on TWRP you can select both by choosing the option to add a zip to flash)
14. the moment of truth, now that you have flashed both rom and gapps, you need to return to the main menu and select reboot and reboot system...
15. assuming you did all of this issue free, you are free to enjoy your phone..
*if you don't have your phone recognized by your computer / NRTK, you need to follow the instructions for NRTK to get the correct drivers for your computer
**if you are not clear on what you are doing, ask before you make a mistake
***Your custom rom will be pre-rooted, so no need to try to root it
Touch is Working Now. (Finally) with OTA Support only for zero5 indian varient

download current version attached above is 15.31 mb in size.
Screen Shot is also updated
Let me know your success.............................
flipped screen fixed !
Ok, now it's not flipped but the touch is still disabled

just use it as temp. bcz after flash touch not working.
Touch is disabled in kernel for recovery partation by infinix.
for temp use cmd.
fastboot boot recovery.img
will update soon..........
when i connect my mouse via otg or flash it temporarily it works fine except that it shows that the internal storage is 0mb and when i try to install something it tells me that it's unable to mount /data as rw
also can you tell me how to get the password required in the first screen ?

Read OP carefully. You need to format data partition completly first time and need to patch boot img via lazy flasher.
Showing 0mb bcz it is encrypted. You can use memory card.
If you want root then go for magisk root till recovery updated.
OK, now I removed the encryption, installed magisk and the root worked but when I try to install busybox and some other apps it doesn't work. When I try to install supersu zip it doesn't work (extracting ramdisk failure aborting) , isn't there any way to install supersu in order to get apps working correctly?

which busybox your trying and what error.
currently supersu have some error with new devices. which version you tried it should be 2.82 or above.
I downloaded SuperSU-v2.82-201705271822.zip
Busybox pro 61
MagiskManager-v5.4.3.apk

Use busybox form playstore stericson.
I downloaded both free and pro versions of stericson's busybox and neither of them worked.
Also I downloaded supersu 2.82 and it also didn't work.
Finally the Touch is updated and working now.
I enabled touch in kernel which is disabled for recovery partition.

System is encrypted.
Use magiskmanager beta 14.5 or flash lazyflasher via twrp then one time you need to wipe data partition.
Always remember when you flash orignal boot.img you need to flash lazyflasher or magisk otherwise your system will become encrypted again.
Thank you, now touch is working perfectly <3

you can use ndk busybox from magisk app there is option download module.
But currently there is problem with module with this phone. the data partition is in F2FS format and its kernel is not handling f2fs properly.
TWO option for use magisk module.
1. wait for kernel update via infinix. or
2. format data partition as Ext4 from twrp.
Super su does not work correctly with f2fs currently.
But when I format data partition it resets my phone

Hello,
I got a Xperia XZS SO-03J (Japan Docomo Variant). Anybody got any ideas to root this device and any custom roms. Already searched the forum but no avail. Thank you for your help.
Japanese cellular version usually unable to unlock bootloader.but still some phones can unlock. if you have twrp ,you can install some rooted ROMs modified from official ROM.(btw you have to find a ROM can install without unlock bootloader)

if you have docomo ubl yes you can patch kernel manual , because it's different from Au,Global,Softbank
I've tried with x compact docomo ubl yes
I think first of all need to check whether the bootloader is unlockable or not
if you can UNLOCK the Japanese Xzs then
you can use this TWRP
https://dl.twrp.me/kagura/twrp-3.2.3-0-kagura.img.html
there is a depate that you can cross flash XZ's Android 6 to extract DRM keys! but i am not going to go that, as soon as you UNLOCK you bootload, TA partition will be GONE..
what is your build number?
download your build from FLASHTOOL---> Xperfirm and send me KERNEL.sin and i will send you the modded kernel
rest PROCESS you can Read (carefully) at
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-xz/how-to/rooted-kernels-f8332-41-3-2-588-0-t3748987
its for XZ but applies to XZs too!

This is a good news! , good to know that you were able to Root it.
i am sure you will find good performance.
nighlight makes your screen TINT different (reduces blue) which makes it easier on eyes while you browsing in night or from bed. blue light hurts eyes and brain and increases sleeplessness.
a shortcut toggle button next to FLASHLIGHT will appear (if arent already in your build) and display setting will have NIGHLIGHT FEATURE ENABLED- you can control the INTENSITY of this filter according to your needs

Temporary root is now possible on the Xperia so-03j, I personally tested a few minutes ago.

Those files seem appropriate for stock rom release 41.3.B.1.140., so don't try unless you're running that specific version (quite outdated if you ask me).
But first make sure your bootloader can be unlocked. If that's the case, you may want to install a recent rom with root support, or check the guides for rooting stock rom. Be aware that with unofficial roms you might lose camera quality or have no cam support at all.
If you're stuck with an unlockable bootloader (like myself) your choices are much more limited. My current approach is having latest stock, disable bloatware apps, and use temporary root when needed.
thank you @dinosaur99 for your quick response, i got the one that cannot be unlocked, so i'm using the temp root method, but do you know how to gain temp root access without using adb (laptop or computer), and can i automate the temp root every after reboot ?
again thank you for your response, and looking forward from you

Good question! I wanted to create a launcher too!
So I just followed these instructions and it works fine. First you need to perform the following commands from computer (have a copy of the exploit file in working directory):
Bash:
adb push su98-memory-kallsyms /data/local/tmp/
adb shell
# Run this from inside the shell
chmod +x /data/local/tmp/su98-memory-kallsyms
/data/local/tmp/su98-memory-kallsyms
chcon u:object_r:system_file:s0 /data/local/tmp/su98-memory-kallsyms
Now reboot the phone, and the file /data/local/tmp/su98-memory-kallsyms should still be there. On your favourite console app, create a new terminal launcher/profile/whatever it's called and name it "Root terminal", then make it so it runs this command on shell login:
Bash:
/data/local/tmp/su98-memory-kallsyms
Note there's a trailing <Enter> key at the end of the command. I use Connectbot and it was necessary.
Cheers!
Edit:
By the way, the last line would be the equivalent to "sudo bash" in a computer. That means you can write a script with the root commands to be executed upon reboot. Example launcher:
Bash:
/data/local/tmp/su98-memory-kallsyms /data/local/tmp/my-script
