Links and Resources to SONY XPERIA Z - Unlock/Install Recovery and Custom ROMs! - Xperia Z General

The purpose of these links is to provide alternate resources to band together any missing unlock info. some guides have incomplete info, so referencing multiple sources is a great idea so that people will get a broad amount of info.
IBTIMES.CO.UK Info for Xperia Z.
read this first.
read this Second.
---------------------
here is another site with more info about unlocks. android.sc site has some really good stuff as well. This one actually has some pretty interesting material and has some technical info i think is necessary. here is that info:
http://android.sc/how-to-install-the-cwm-clockworkmod-recovery-on-the-sony-xperia-z/

GiffGaff also provides a way to unlock and install CWM recovery. check it out here:

---------------------
Finally, last but not least XDA right here has some vital info as well. The flash tool, the Fix called reboot wrapper (which allows rebooting into custom recovery) and of course how to flash the CWM recovery. here are the links:

It is a good idea, which is why someone already came up with it, i.e see the stickys.

True, but is it being updated? According to the duplicate thread finder before posting, this (or something like it) didn't exist.

hmmm, apparently doing direct links is a no no. So if you want the .tar file(s) then I guess you have to sign up to get them (even though they are on megaupload). It is definitely worth the couple minutes it takes to sign up

I used the no wipe tar.md5 file and it worked like a charm. I was on rooted EB13 and removed some sprint bloatware and it still worked.
I'm a noob. Do I unpack the rar file and convert it to a zip? I wanna do all this from my phone using androzip, like I did for eb13 as I don't have a working laptop.

If you are running rooted EB13 with CWM 3.0.0.6, you can install a EC05 ROM and get the update, but I am not sure if you can get the EC05 modem without using ODIN.
If you are stock EB13, you will have to wait for the official EB13 to EC05 update to do it w/o a PC, or take it to your local Sprint store.
Anyone have a link to the new full wipe tar they put up?

Signed up over there to grab the downloads. Might start frequenting your site more often. Just seems more user friendly. Thorough instructions helped me get to EC05 without any problems.
Both sites have great info; but from what I've seen, the instructions and atmosphere in general is more newb-friendly over at Android Central than here at XDA. If you have newb-ish questions, you'll fare better asking them over there.
If you already know your way around Android, then over here will be fine.
Makes sense considering this site is intended for developers after all...

How is that not answering the question? Your original question is if kenia lets OP take the credit for the port. OP's answer is that he is not taking credit, and he clearly gives kenia credit in the first post of this thread. /facepalm

You say in the instructions you can come straight from CM/MIUI, which is what he is asking.
Honestly, it would be a lot easier for them to just download the latest (or just any) CM nightly, and then install this over it. Less downloads, no Odin, just 2 installs and you're set.

[MINI GUIDE] Phone Vocabulary - x8 Specific

This thread is being created to explain, in short, a few common phone 'terms.' Now although there are many threads explaining the same thing they are 'thicker' and written differently. A different guide will help a different person. I think it is valid that there is more than one explanation of the same thing. If you have ANY suggestions, please leave them in post form below. I have explained this relative to the Xperia x8 and this is why it is in our territory.
Remember that this is a MINI guide. So not every term in the android language will be explained. For a more complicated guide see HERE or on the everything x8 w8 thread here. Both guides are different.
Anyway Here is a mini guide about phone terms:
A ROM stands for Read Only Memory, ususally on this site referring to the phone's internal memory where your apps are stored. It's like an operating system. (OS) When people say they're flashing a new ROM, it usually means they are installing a new 'operating system'. A custom rom may have new features different to the STOCK rom.
The term Stock usually means the version of something installed by the manufacturer. Or in other words, the stuff already on that thing.
An .APK is a Package on Android. Usually you will meet these when installing apps on your phone. This is, simply put, just a file extension, like .exe on windows.
Rooting is simply giving your phone administrators rights. No roms or anything. Once rooted you could install clockworkmod which would allow you to install a rom that would work on you STOCK kernel (the one that comes with xperia).
A kernel is a set of instructions to a phone. different kernels or custom kernels (not stock) enable you to flash some more advanced roms as not all roms will work on STOCK kernel.
Also, in most cases, different kernels allow overclock and undervolt. These things allow you to make your device run faster.
Unlocking your BootLoader is required to install a custom kernel. Unlocking a bootloader can be difficult and if done wrong, can brick your device completely.(make it useless like a brick) This is why I did not do it until a few weeks ago - because I was scared. If you do however find yourself bricked, look to my guide no further than HERE.
You flash kernels with Flashtool. But you MUST have an unlocked BootLoader to do this.
If I was to recommend a rom, I would say MiniCyanogenmod (CM for short). The developer, nAa, focuses on getting the galaxy nexus android - pure version. Check out my review on the stable ever wonderful MiniCM9 HERE.
Links to Flashtool, ROMS and other things mentioned will be in my other guides hyperlinked in the article.
Please be generous with the 'Thanks' if you appreciate my effort.
Special Thanks to I Am Nice for his consistent helpful feedback

Pls don't disrespect chris. I can tell you he knows what he's saying (he didn't get to become RT for nothing).
I admire your efforts, but please add more definitions. For example: you didn't really explain what "bootloader" means. And like chris has said, it's already explained (in morr detail) in another thread. Hopefully you'll add more jargons in the near future. Good job though. :beer:

[Q] Just Rooted My N4 What Next?

Hello X-da community stoned_pirate here and I guess I will gingerly call myself a developer. Well Im learning all about the develop process. So I just rooted my phone and it was a success. Watched a vid by mskip, boy does he simplify things a lot. So ive also installed goo manager I heard the name in the vid. So do I flash a kernel next or rom? Can I do this from goo manager? A simple break down of whats next would be kindly appreciated.

No real breakdown of whats next since thats up to you. May I suggest you go to wiki page for our phone or check any of the stickies in development or general and simply read up on your phone. Many choices for you! Quite a few roms and many more kernels, read up and see which ones you like
since you mentioned it. Flash rom first, Kernel second.
OK so I need to flash s ROM and then kernel. Will this allow me to utilize 4glte when possible? Also can I flash a ROM and kernel from goostore?

btw, after reading this, i cant even gingerly call you a developer. first thing that you need to do is start reading up about whats available or even basic procedures. starting a thread asking people where to start will not do you any good.

Not that you care, but this is directly from the XDA rules that you agreed to but obviously did not read...
1. Search before posting.
Use one of our search functions before posting, whether you have a question or something new to share, it's very likely someone already asked that question or shared that news.
-and-
5. Post a message only once.
As a large forum we don't need unnecessary clutter, You're free to edit your message as you like, so if you do not receive an answer revisit your message and see if you can describe your problem better. Not everyone is online at the same time, it might take a while before you receive an answer.
In your case you got a couple of good answers (maybe not the answers you wanted, but still accurate) and you decided to ignore them.

Who assigned you as the snitch. I started reading his threads since I keep seeing you constantly spamming every single one. From what I've read he's currently making progress. He managed to get his phone to boot after what seemed like a brick on mf3 firmware which I'm curious how he did that. You see I found something interesting and what seems can be useful for others who soft bricked their phones with mf3 stock from the information he provided. But you, I see you as that one causing the annoyance and lack of progress to help some one who has been reading and has been trying to figure out a way to fix his problem.

Regardless scott was just following and enforcing forum rules...which is a good thing. If the op wants he can create a new thread explaining how he got his device to boot back up...but from what ive read he never really bricked it...just messed up hus recovery so he couldnt enter stock recovery anymore...could still boot up but bootimg recovery sent him to download mode.
Now calling someone on here a snitch for enforcing forum rules is not ok, if you have a problem with the way hes doing things than let him no through pm or contact a mod if needed for further assistance with the issue...a mod can than evalute the problem and decide what needs to be done lock thread/delete posts/leave alone
Lets try and make xda a nice friendly environment...even if somebody annoys you or does something you dont like...
