root, recovery, and kernel. - Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers

Hi everybody.
I just had the xz F8331. i had the xz premium stone with root and recovery, but my xzP is dead. so I buy the xz. for now I have not done anything with it yet. I will unlock the bl, root, and installed the twrp. if a person has everything they need to perform the procedures it would help me a lot. I do not want to make a mistake. so if someone could help me a little it would be cool. I am with the firmware 192. could you advise me for a high-performance rom on this xperia xz please. I have not yet unlocked the bl so I wonder if there is a fix drm? Thanks in advance for your help. I already read a lot on the forums but I do not understand everything because I am French and not very good in English.

Drm Keys ? Unlocked bootloader ? MIUI ?

Hello everyone , I have a Xperia Z3 D6603 and I hesitate to unlock the bootloader .
I currently run on official 5.0.2 rom but multitasking problems annoying me and I would like to test some custom rom (which one btw ?) especially MIUI V6.
First, is MIUI available for Z3 ? I found it for the Z2 but anywhere for Z3 ...
Secondly and most importantly I hesitate to unlock the bootloader because of the problems of DRM keys obviously. What I understood, I would have to make a backup of my TA partition before unlocking the bootloader and if I want to put it "completely stock" (example : for resale it) I need only reflash the TA partition, right ? So during the time when i'm on custom rom I lose all the benefits such as quality of the camera, the treatment of screen (what else ?) etc ?
So i can't have the benefits of drm keys on a custom rom ?
Thx for answers !

Try using Kingroot. Some people say that it sends your IMEI to China... Try at your own risk.

Not working here to.
Need to downgrade??
I have the same model ( D6643 with Lollipop 5.1.1 build 23.4.A.1.232 ) and couldn't find a tutorial for this exact version also.
The closest I got was a user from argentina (also owner of a D6643) saying he could do it following this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/development/root-stock-kernel-twrp-v01-test-28-09-t2889794 , using the Kernel image D6653 / D6603 23.0.A.2.93
Here is his answer: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57609346&postcount=11
I didn't try yet, I'm not sure If I'll get my phone bricked... but If you wanna give it a try, please tell us the result!

Hi guys, just a silly question :)

Hi Guys, can anyone point in me in the right direction? I currently have :
Sony Xperia Z5
Model number: E6653
Android Version: 6.0.1
Build number 32.2A.0.305
Unlocked bootloader.
How would I go about rooting this device? Th Reason why I'm asking is because all the guides I find are for 6.0.0.
Regards,
Robert

Hi, Do i need to downgrade to 6.0.0?
To root and keep all the funtionality intact, yes you need to downgrade and not to 6.0.0 version but to LP firmware .200 or .152 anyone will work.

He said he had an unlocked bootloader meaning he already has his TA keys backed up or they're lost forever. Either way can't he just flash custom recovery and then flash SuperSU zip. That should only take about 5 minutes.

[XA2/XA2 Ultra] Can someone create FSC script for Flashtool?

Anyone with Xperia XA2 or XA2 Ultra and brave enough to help the community?
It may feel that it's to early, but it's better to have support than not, and You don;t know when You will need Flashtool to flash older firmware or part of it (system or kernel).
So why not create .fsc now?
What is needed? Xperia Companion, Simple USB Logger, Flashmode drivers, microUSB<->USB cable and, ofc, Xperia XA2 or XA2 Ultra (I'm missing this one ).
Unfortunately as it means that device needs to be updated or (better I think) "repaired", any data from its memory may be removed.
You can read about it here: http://www.flashtool.net/fsccreate.php
Or seen how it's done here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LsauwNXpR-Q
Logger can be downloaded from here: http://www.incentivespro.com/usb-logger.html
I'm sure community will be thankful to anybody who at least will try to do it. I am

Great news mate! I'm looking forward to get an H4233.
Fsc is ready but I need to release a new version of flashtool because some new commands are used in the communication protocol. I will release after eclipse 4.7.3 is out to update the eclipse runtime too

Do You know if L2 use the new protocol or not? Seems to be the same as with L1, meaning old, older even than XZ1 uses...

You could try relocking with Flashtool. It won't restore DRM keys, but should relock the bootloader. And that is enough for Xperia Companion to work.
Still, XA2's firmware looks a lot different than older devices, so as Androxyde wrotr, there is a need for an update of Flashtool.
Still if You create a log it may ve helpfull not only with this app, ut with Newflasher/Xflasher for 2018 Xperias as well.

How can I relock the boot loader using flashtool, since flashtool does not support XA2 yet.

Use BLU icon. Not sure if it will work with XA2, but it works with older Xperias.

So You'll have to wait for new Flashtool. Maybe than it will work.

I don't have the H3213, I have the H3223, but NewFlasher has worked perfectly for me to flash the stock ROM.
