Want a LBL Lollipop root method for the Xperia Z1? Keep reading. - Xperia Z1 General

Hi all!
I'm happy to say that, thanks to iovyroot, and with a lot of help from zxz0O0, we managed to create a new root tool for the Xperia M2, EagleRootTool, meaning we don't actually need to use Kingroot anymore to root LBL devices under latest Lollipop firmware :victory:
However, since this root binary is compatible with (probably) any kernel built before December 2015, I thought of making the tool compatible with some other devices, like your Z1, since it's actually very similar to my device.
Unfortunately, since this tool's based on some kernel-specific addresses, to make it compatible with other devices like the Z1, I need them from every single variant.
I'm going to take for reference all models and firmware build numbers from XperiFirm.
WHAT YOU NEED:
- An already rooted device in 14.6.A.1.236 (it doesn't matter if it was rooted by Kingroot, or via UBL methods).
- A little of Android general knowledge: Usage of ADB (mainly).
- Patience.
DEVICES:
- C6902
- C6903 ✓
- C6906
- C6943
HOW TO DO IT?:
Just open an ADB prompt and run a shell in it. Then, run the following commands, replacing the *location with storage/sdcard1 if you want to use your SD Card, or with data/media/0 if you want to use the internal memory.
Code:
su
cat /proc/version > /[COLOR="Purple"]*[/COLOR][COLOR="red"]location[/COLOR]/version.txt
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict
cat /proc/kallsyms > /[COLOR="Purple"]*[/COLOR][COLOR="red"]location[/COLOR]/kallsyms.txt
(remember to hit enter after each line of the above :silly
Now upload those two files (version.txt & kallsyms.txt) wherever you want, or attach them in your comment, saying which model they're from, and I'll add the required offsets to support your device manually!
________________________
DISCLAIMER: This is NOT a placeholder NOR Spam thread. I just want to help this device users to get them supported in a common Lollipop Xperia rooting toolkit, since this device won't get Marshmallow, and has a compatible kernel. If you, moderator or user, decide to close/report this thread, I may understand it, but think it twice before doing it.

Website for Japanese Xperia's FTF

I created a Website to gather FTF for Japanese version Xperia since Japanese models generally doesn't have xda thread or other websites to share FTF.
http://ftf.xn--l8je9byecb9a3syb.xn--q9jyb4c/
At the moment there are only few models and versions since I couldn't find others...
If someone has FTF not listed on the Website, please post here.
I'll add it on the Website.
Devices on the Website (7/31):
Xperia acro IS11S
Xperia SX SO-05D
Xperia VL SOL21
Xperia Z SO-02E
Xperia UL SOL22
Xperia Tablet Z SO-03E
Xperia A SO-04E
Xperia Z1 SO-01F
Xperia Z1 SOL23
Xperia Z Ultra SOL24
Xperia Z1 f SO-02F
Xperia Z2 SO-03F
Xperia A2 SO-04F
Xperia ZL2 SOL25
thank you so much ! this is helpful site
Incredibly appreciated! Hopefully some of the international exploits will be found to be effective on these firmwares as well. Following the 2ch threads on root, and it seems like the biggest breakthrough has still been the restoration of DRM functions after unlock, but no actual root with a locked bootloader yet.
If we could just get that TA partition backup we'd be in the clear to flash...
That's a very neat site!  ありがとう!
thank you so much ! for sol25 zl2

If you want the system apps you can flash only the system portion of the ftf file. If you want the kernel, you'll brick your phone.

You can flash Lollipop firmware for D5503 on your device. I also have a Japanese phone that is running a US Lollipop ROM (.236).

Cool I flashed my Xperia SX with newer firmware downloaded from your pages and now my phone is docomo-locked. What can I do?
Why you put the firmware on google drive? Do you know hard for me to download it? I lose 5gb mobile data, suck google no pause resume for that and always failed if download reach 2-2,5gb so sad.

[REQ] Need help for LB root from people with SGP621 on unlocked BL and stock kernel

I may have get giefroot working on the SGP621. But to find out if it will really work I need help from people with a SGP621 and unlocked bootloader who are already rooted on stock kernel. Please issue the following commands in the terminal emulator on the device and attach the results (kallsysm.txt and the kernel version the cat /proc/version command produces) here.
Code:
su
echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict
cat /proc/kallsyms >/storage/sdcard1/kallsyms.txt
cat /proc/version
This is from my unlocked bootloader Z3C SGP621

Thank you very much. I will have a look at it as soon as I am back on my PC. Hopefully the exploit was not patched by Sony like most of the other ones...
work good luck with the kernel ☺
I just wanted to tell you what root has been found for the z3 d... At the bounty forum go there to check it out?
I know. I am working with the guy who did it to get root to our devices. But it involves more work and more risk than normal because the firmware of our devices is not exploitable. But I may have found a way nonetheless. I post as soon as I have an update.
I thank you for trying I just every one else that there is hope. http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-...-unlocking-bootloader-method-t2940539/page101
@gromoglasnik could you please contact me again, I would need you to execute
Code:
cat /proc/version
too, so I can combine those two infos.
For all others, I ask you again for the sake of all the people that have a SGP621 and want to backup their TA and root, please if you have a unlocked SGP621 supply the information requested in the opening thread, share them here or PM me with them. Thank you!
There is a thread in development where they might have and unlock rooted SGP621 post there too.
Linux version 3.4.0-perf-gd4d661a ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.7 (GCC) ) #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Sep 19 18:10:07 2014
@gromoglasnik thank you for your help! Its much appreciated.
This thread ought to be moved to a different subforum, Original Android Development perhaps.
So BPinard can you help him
I got everything I need. This Thread can be closed or locked. For now it seems our kernel can not be made compatible to giefroot, but I got a method to get root and backup the TA here. It is high risk and means loosing all your data in the process, but for me it worked and I am now running CM12 and have my TA Backed up.
Thread closed as per OP's request.

[STOCK][D66XX][4.4.4] Firmware 23.0.1.A.5.77 Generic [ROOT/XZDR/SuperSU]

Required:
- Flashtool in the latest version from: http://flashtool.net
- DualRecovery by NUT as installer.zip: http://nut.xperia-files.com (Download the correct one for your device and at least version 2.8.1+!)
- Root on 23.0.A.2.93 (Download) for example with this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/giefroot-rooting-tool-cve-2014-4322-t3011598
Featurelist:
- SuperSU integrated
- DualRecovery by NUT integrated (2.8.1)
Can be used on locked and unlocked bootloader.
Firmware Files:
D6603, D6653
- Flashable.zip's and FTF files in folders - sorted by devices
The Flashable.zip i've created with the mighty tool PRFCreator by zxz0O0.
Installation/Update (short) guide:
0. Downgrade to the firmware 23.0.A.2.93 and root it (with giefroot)
0.1. Install the LockedDualRecovery by NUT with the installer.zip (install.bat)
1. Put the downloaded update file (ROM.zip) on your device. I recommend you to put it directly on the device.
2. Boot into the recovery (While rebooting -> when the info LED flashs -> press shortly the VOL button for the Recovery you prefer)
(On Recovery you may create a twrp/cwm backup of your device if you get any issues on updating process!)
3. Flash the ROM update file (.zip) with "install zip".
4. Wipe cache and dalvik cache (perhaps under advanced).
5. Reboot to system.
You may have to wait some minutes on the first boot because of initializing system for first time (optimizing apps etc.).
What to do if you get permission errors? (While installing for example the Recovery)
Untill NUT updates his DualRecovery you should fix permissions with ADB with the following commands:
(tested with command line from the giefroot_V...\files\ directory -> shift + right mouse -> open cmd "here")
Either you could try the modified DualRecovery (installer) by NUT (modified by monx): http://d-h.st/iM9p
Code:
adb push systemrw.sh /data/local/tmp
adb push modulecrcpatch /data/local/tmp
adb push wp_mod.ko /data/local/tmp
adb shell
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/systemrw.sh
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/modulecrcpatch
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/wp_mod.ko
su
cd /data/local/tmp
./systemrw.sh
Special Thanks to:
[NUT] (DualRecovery and his efforts!)
zxz0O0 (giefroot rooting tool, PRFCreator and his efforts!)

Your flashable file says it's D5803...is it a typo or?
I have to check this 'issue' when I get back home today at the evening.
Perhaps I've confused something cause of releasing Z3 and Z3C flashable.zip at the same time.
I refreshed the download link right now but it seems that nothing has changed so far.
You can check my folder on http://mega.leetbox.net until I will inspect the files.
Sorry for the confusion.

As you can see on my MEGA folder i've just made (till now) the files for D6603 devices.
You will end in a bootloop if you try to flash the published files.

There are only little differences like some preinstalled apps and maybe how the connection shows up (4G/LTE).
Basically all customizations are quite equal and you can flash them vice versa on every device (correct model number ) independently which one was preinstalled.
It seems like TWRP is not working, but CWM is working allright. Haven't found any more issues yet.

You're wrong bro. You can flash D6603 onto D6653 and not getting bootloop. They are basically the same device but just different LTE bands. D6603 have all of the bands while D6653 only contain those in mostly Asia. I personally tried flashing SlipROM on my phone before and it work just like normal.

Does this mean if we flash D6603 firmware on to the D6653, we'll be able to use AWS bands on the D6653? (Stock D6603 is AWS capable right...?)

Only needs Flashtool to downgrade to .93. If you are already rooted with .93 and a custom recovery, you can flash via recovery.
If anyone have problem with dual recovery installation, maybe have to install BusyBox from Google Play. From some reason, my phone was rooted with success, however without busybox, i had to manual install it from Google Play.
Guys, after flashing .77 FW from Recovery, there`s no need to flash FTF again with excluding SYSTEM ? Just flash the zip and that`s all, right ?

If the zip included the stock kernel when being created, then no, you don't need to flash the FTF again excl system.

Nope! If D6653 doesn't support AWS bands, it can't use that AWS bands from D6603. Like I said, the specs are the same except the RIL bands. D6603 is the international version. Hence it support more bands while D6653 is build for Asia region bands. Hence the bands only stay within Asia.

Can anyone please post an FTF for E6553 (generic Hong Kong version)? I managed to brick my phone
Edit: Never mind - PC companion repair menu saved the device model in its history, so I'm good for now . But post it anyway if you could as we need to build a good FTF collection

few questions...
do you need to have the bootloader unlocked to use flashtool?
Also, I like in the USA and bought the z3+. The current CDA is HK generic which is version .24. I see that the generic UK version is .27. Is there an advantage to put the .27 firmware on the phone?

The only variants using 28.0.A.7.27 are "Customized UK" and "O2 Pay monthly UK". Every other variant is 28.0.A.7.24 or older. They often did that with the Z2 too and the main reason was because of bugs so I guess they released 28.0.A.7.24 for UK too but noticed some bugs, thus fixed these and released 28.0.A.7.27
28.0.A.7.24 and 28.0.A.7.27 should be the exact same Android version 5.0.2. If it were Android 5.1 or even 5.1.1 they would have used a much higher version number.

I can't say about Z3+ but for Z2 and here it still worked. Maybe Sony changed something with the Z3+ but I don't think so. In short (but without guarantee): yes, it should still work.

Thank you. You have been helpful. That leads me to yet another question (I am a first time xperia user, I have used HTC up to this point).
In the flashtool I was able to choose the z3+ as my device. It was my understanding that the z3+ was not included yet., WIth that said there are options within the flashtool to root the device. IS that something that can be done now?
FTF E6553_28.0.A.7.27_1295-7703_R6A

Provider: unbranded
Customization number: 1295-7703

1) Get latest Flashtool from http://www.flashtool.net/downloads.php and install it
2) Run C:\Flashtool\drivers\Flashtool-drivers.exe and select Flashmode Drivers, Fastboot Drivers and both Xperia Z2 Device Drivers (there are no Z3+ drivers yet but the Z2 ones work great)
3) Download the FTF you want and save it in eg. C:\
4) Power Off your Z3+ and connect the microUSB cable to it (but leave it disconnected from the Computer)
5) Run C:\Flashtool\FlashTool.exe (or FlashTool64.exe if you have a 64-Bit Operating System on your Computer)
6) Click the Lightning icon on the very left
7) Select Flashmode and click OK
8) On the top select the path where you have your FTF downloaded
9) On the left select the firmware you want to flash
10) IMPORTANT: On the right in "Exclude :" select the checkbox next to TA
11) Click Flash
12) Wait some time
13) When asked (the green arrow window) press Volume down and connect the USB cable to your Computer
14) Flashing starts.
15) Check the main Flashtool window. It shows a log and that tells you when flashing is done. If you don't see any red lines everything went fine.
I strongly advise to NOT do anything with your Computer, its connected devices or cables as long as flashing is in progress. Don't even plug or unplug a thumb drive. I have a USB3.0 AddOn card and when I plug in a device my native USB2.0 ports are disconnected for a millisecond. That's not a problem for thumbdrives, etc. but this can brick your phone while it gets flashed.

You're welcome and congrats to your first Xperia
I have absolutely no clue about rooting. Never did it. Current version of Flashtool may successfully root your Z3+ or it may brick it. I have absolutely no clue. What I know is that the Z3+ is officially not supported yet (but thankfully at least flashing works because Sony didn't changed anything since at least Z2).

Yeah, there are some bad changes in the new flashtool version. Instead of simply selecting TA you now have to manually select each ta file. I'll update my quick guide but here's additionally what you have to do now:
Check the list below "Content :" and look for all entries ending with .ta (eg. cust-reset.ta). If you found one, search for the same entry in the "Exclude :" list (eg. CUST-RESET) and select it. Do this for every .ta entry shown in the "Content :" list.
Normally it's only CUST-RESET and FOTA-RESET. Sometimes you'll additionally have SIMLOCK
Additionally if you want to wipe your device while flashing it to a new firmware (was the default behavior until the latest flashtool version) you also have to check all three checkboxes (APPS_LOG, CACHE, USERDATA) in to top right "Wipe :" list!

System Dumps are for mod developers to use. You can actually modify it such that you can flash it as a flashable zip in TWRP.
But for simplicity sake for newcomers, I recommend you use Sony's PC Companion to update. It ensures that you don't get into much complications

There is no update for HK version. No PC Companion update currently.

Hello Xperia family. I have the HK Z3+. Would it be advisable to just flash MM from US or stick to HK? I already downloaded the US FTF and not sure what .ta files to exclude?
auto-boot.ta
cust-reset.ta
fota.reset.ta
osv-restriction.ta
reset-non-secure-adb.ta
simlock.ta
My Z and Z3 only had 2 .ta files to exclude, this has 6. Im not too sure about the additional 4 .ta files. any help greatly appreciated. Thanks
will this work on dual sim edition(E6533) too.
