Okay, i am making this thread so people can find the answer for their questions here, some of these are the questions i was wondering too, but mostly these questions are what i think most people are wondering. And as always i want the answer to be heard from many people, so i really can be sure and know all about it!
ROMS..............
So, anyone got any idea when custom roms like cyanogen get compatibility for xperia z5 premium? how long does it usually take? and how do i get my current stock rom on my pc so i can customise it myself, and not die in waiting for cyanogen ? When the first cyanogen comes, it will be laggy, as everyone knows... Is it worth flashing? Can flashing ROMs break my phone, even when done right? Are they too risky for my brand new flagship beast?
ROOT..............
When do EASY one click rooting apps like kingroot, kingoroot and iroot work with the z5 premium? Does the "dirty" unlocked bootloader root made by androplus for xperia z5p work for the latest software update? When will the legendary locked bootloader root come?
BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED......
Okay this is what i can answer on!
Will the camera quality go really bad?
NO, it won't. Only in low light it will be terrible, only in low light! It is EXACTLY (for me) the same as locked bootloader on normal lightning. YOU CAN BARELY SPOT THE DIFFERENCE!
is the boot loader worth unlocking??
This is a hard one. Its different for everybody, someone LIKE ME thinks its worth it, some others think its not. (tell your opinions pls)
FOR ME IT IS. As with unlocked bootloader you will be getting root before the locked boys.
What does change?
For me, nothing really. No experience has changed for me, but everyone uses it differently!
Okey so thats it for now its sunday night soon, post your questions down below, ill answer IF I CAN xd. if i don't know the answer, other people will answer it (HOPEFULLY) please ask and comment below! Thank you guys!
And by the way, will there EVER be a android 4.x rom that works on z5p?
Android 4.x ? Are you kidding me? Nooooo of course there wont be...
Unlocked bootloader exists and so does root. We dont have locked Bootloader root yet.
Cyangenmod? Wont be for while I think.
Id just be happy you have a good device, unlock the bootloader and root.

It does not work. Only root method is with unlocked bl, WICH DID NOT WORK FOR ME! I just installed a custom pre rooted rom, that worked. If u wanna do it the unlocked bl way, its pretty hard if u have only used kingroot for rooting.. And u can easily bootloop or brick ur phone. Thank me for helpful post if i helped pls xdd. I can ofc answer more questions if u need info.

Yea, ALSO! If your getting it. The phone has one problem........ IT BENDS... I can confirm.. So i think its the best phone ever, but its batterylife is pretty poor and it bends.. So if u get it on really bendy places your eventually gonna end up with a samsung curve tv looking phone. Mine is not bent, well slightly, u can barely see it.

Hey guys, just a quick thread.
I think this phone needs more LB support. Has anyone even tried a bypass method for us with LB to be able to flash custom kernels? I know back when I had a Bell Motorola Atrix there was a hack that gave us the ability to unlock our bootloaders. Why aren't we trying to find one for this phone?
I understand that those with LB can't use the official method for unlocking the bootloader, but is there not a hack we could work towards? Has anyone even tried to unlock the LB Xperia Z2? There must be a way.
Besides that, I also think it would be good to have more LB support in android development. For example a CM11 that can be used on LB devices. I'm currently running Miui 4.4.4 and it supports both LB and UB.
Cheers
Update:

The best way to support LB is to have a rom version that uses the stock kernel. Hopefully this is what happens moving forward with the release of a sony lollipop update.

I think I saw from some other threads that the reason why we can't work towards unlocking non-unlockable bootloaders is because we need to break sony encryption or something like that?
I don't know, sorry.
We are at the peak of Locked Bootloader Support.
We cant do anything more unless someone wants to spend so much time to do so.
Cracking sonys bootloader encryption results essentialy in an unlocked bootloader hence thats somewhat pointless
We cant unlock a non unlockable Xperia unless as said the encryption is cracked
And sonys encryption is almost FBI level and it may even vary per Z2
Cm11/12 on locked bootloader is possible but its extremly complicated and setting up a rom like such on LB is complicated too
You have to root your device, install a custom kernel to the fotakernel given that its not bound by the bootloader then we have to make a modified rom which reboots the fotakernel then the custom rom that matches

Best to wait for OTA lollipop update then?
If it were standardized, say if CM11/12 took on the responsibility of releasing a LB rom, would it not make the process easier for everyone else?
Just do the same as me, sell the phone and buy another brand like motorola or something like that.
But nobody wants a Z2, hard to sell as hell.

Or just do your research and don't get a locked device.
Actually I think it shouldn't be too difficult to install cm11/12 on LB. There is a method which has worked now for some months on the Xperia SP which let you run any ROM on the stock kernel. I think these modified for LB ROMs load a custom ramdisk at a late point in the boot process. I'm not familiar with the way it works but I guess with some reasonable work amount it might be doable for the Z2 too. If someone is willing to try to port it pm me, I can provide you with the usernames of the people who made it on the XSP.

The easiest way is to change your phone to an unlock BL allowed: yes one.
If it was easy to run custom kernels on a LB , having an UB or LB would be practically the same...
I also have an unlockable phone, but it's my own fault for not researching better before buying the phone. i never had sony phones before, i should have researched more. Since the security of the z2 is very high i'm not expecting to run customs kernels anytime soon, if i ever need it it'll try to sell my phone and buy an unlocked one...

So what about this? Why not just give it a shot for CM11/12?
As I said previously I'm currently running Miui on 4.4.4 and it gives you an option for locked or unlocked bootloader in the Aroma installer.

miui is stock based hence why it works on LB
Its extremly hard to get any custom kernel to run on a device to have it work on LB as said its pointless bugging people about it.

Oliver and letama are rhe ones behind CM10 for Xperia S
Is far as i know they have a smaller custom kernel in /system Most of the rom uses the stock kernel i think.

I think 42 years of brute force testing is how long it should take i thinm.
Unless someone can get a lucky catch.
Hah, well hopefully people support LB by including a stock kernel version for all roms (especially with release of official lollipop stock kernel --soon?--).
I have been out of the game for a while.
I have a Verizon S5 with the NE9 version that's rooted. All my mods are done through xPosed.
I skipped all the Lollipop updates (had my OTA update system app frozen), but it's time to move to Marshmallow.
Could some point me in the right direction to get there?
Quick questions I can think of are...
- Do I have to have an "unlocked" bootloader to make this switch now?
- Is the bootloader able to be truly unlocked? I see lots of people throwing quotes around unlocked still.
- Do we need a custom recovery?
Thanks so much in advance for anyone that can help me out.

Ok - so it looks like without an "unlocked" bootloader, you can't get to a rooted MM state.
I just wanted to clarify that for those looking into this. If that is an incorrect statement, I trust someone will correct me.

Chances are there won't be root for Oreo on snapdragon. Unless we get ENG files for Oreo, which so far is unlikely. There is a row though that has Xposed running without root, so there's that at least

Yeah Samsung have been doing this on a couple of the previous iteration of the devices, think from s6 or something. My advice and something I do personally as I have always ran modded phones for over 10 years and I plan to play around with is just do a little research, it's something that I find people tend to look over, not to take a poke at you or anything like that, I just see it happening a lot. But anyhoo, if you're looking for a phone which you can customize, having an unlockable bootloader is important and aslong as it has a snapdragon bootloader you more than likely will find working builds, I suppose the pixel is one route, or the one plus series of phones.
Thanks. I missed both s6and s7 . I went through 3 S5s lol. Liked the fact that I could swap batteries instead of having to plug it in to charge and the dimensions were more ergonomic for me. But even with the s5 I remember the Att version was not rootable.
Product managers think people will put up with the most personal gadget they own being turned into a cheesy invasive marketing vehicle. All that desperate bloatware and "personalization" settings turn what could be a beautiful product into something obnoxious.
Shame. I guess I'm done with Samung.

Here's a definitive answer: We don't have root for bootloader rev. 3, so just sit tight for the next few weeks or months.
Also, the only way for us to get root is through engineering files, because the bootloader is rock solid. So we've been getting root without an unlocked bootloader. Pretty impressive, right?

I have two galaxy S8's. One is sprint, one is Verizon. Both are legal. I have read and been fed so much crap , I am told there isnt a way to root g950usqs3CRE2.. I have two that started with different build numbers and have ended up the same . Last patch, May 1st, OUCH!! Oneclickroot says that I cant get root because of lvl 3bootloader, other xda guys saying you dont need an unlocked bootloader. Anybody want to help?

I can't wait for root to be available for v3 because I have an s8 on g950usqs3cre2. I'm glad that hope isn't lost.

Hopes never lost. We all I'm sure have done some testing. Just every which way been patched on ours. And we can't figure out what's different with the +model.
