A MESSAGE TO SONY:
Dear Sony,
It was never my intention to publish a hack for your devices. But... It also was never my intention to buy a device for which I have no control. I find it impertinent to forbid the customer to root a purchased smartphone. I would not have made the effort, if at least the standard functions of the camera could have used. I paid ~750 euros and got a non-functioning camera because I want to have full control of my device. If at least the Camera2 API would have been opened, in order to be able to use other camera apps with full resolution, a hack would not have been necessary. But even with that you are fooling your customers. The only reason I have spent so much time and nerves is that I wanted to have a functioning debloated device with root.
Okay, let's go...
First we need some good music: HERE
##### WARNING: ########
Please note that the modification can result in a loss of warranty. I accept no responsibility for any damage that may occur and do not guarantee the functionality of the modifications. I have created this modification for myself and I just want to make it available to other users. If you have no idea of these things, please keep your fingers away. This hack may - in case of incorrect application - destroy your phone. Please keep to the instructions and report errors right here in the thread.
##### INFO: ###########
I' m providing a complete guide here, explaining how to unlock and root the Sony Xperia XZ Premium. In addition, I offer my hack for the DRM problem. You can root your device and still use the full functionality of the camera. Please note: DON'T flash the fix of other devices/versions to your phone! There are patched system files in my fix, which are only for the related phone/version! I will create different patches for other devices and firmware versions in the future!
Sony has worked on the newer devices on the security functions and made it more difficult to crack the DRM protection. Hidden checks were implemented to make cracking more difficult. The old DRMfix by Tobias Waldvogel no longer works with newer devices. I therefore spent a lot of time (a few weeks) and cracked the protection. Since this was my first time with Sony and I had previously no experience with it, it was a very hard job for me. But okay... finally I did it. And here are my 5 cents...
##### INSTRUCTIONS: #####
Before you start: PLEASE CHECK THE RIGHT VERSION OF YOUR FIRMWARE!!!
Settings -> About the phone -> Model & Build number
Don't flash anything that doesn't match your build!
+++++++++ UPDATE +++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I created a tool "XperiFIX" which can do the magic for you.
See it in action...
If you nevertheless want to do it manually on Nougat, the old instructions and downloads are here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74426201&postcount=285
1. Unlock your bootloader
Visit: https://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/ Choose "Xperia XZ" from the list of the devices (only if your device isn't listed) and follow the instructions to unlock your bootloader. Please note, that as soon as you unlock your device, your unique device keys are lost (forever!) and there is NO way back anymore!
2. Use XperiFIX to get what you want
1. Download, install and start "XperiFIX" (as administrator!)
2. Hold down the VolumeUP(+) key only and plug the USB cable to PC and mobile phone until the LED is blue.
3. Read the warning and check the checkbox
4. Click "Fix my device!" button in XperiFIX
5. Now the tool will do it's magic! Please be patient, it can take a few minutes!
Note: If TWRP ask you if the system partition should be mounted read-only, then swipe to the right to allow modifications!
6. If all is done, the device should restart.
7. Check your security status, configuration and camera.
8. Donate me a pizza or some toys for my little son, hehe...
Congratulations!
You now have an unlocked, rooted XZ Premium with my DRMpatch and can use your camera and other functions again without ugly green pictures! Wohoooo... Easy going, huh?
Let's be quiet for a moment and imagine the faces of the developers, who wanted to prevent a DRMfix with the new firmware versions and complex encapsulated security functions:
Cheers!

##### FAQ: ################
Can this patch bring back the device key?
No! It simulates the key and a locked device without root. If you unlock and root your device, the unique device key is gone forever! There is not turning back!
Can I use another kernel with this patch?
Yes, but only with Xperifix 2.0 and above. It will patch the ramdisk of the kernel automaticly.
Can I use the patch for other devices or versions?
No! Please don't try this! In my patch I had to fix a system file which is different between the devices and versions. If you flash the wrong version, it could brick your phone! I will create other versions of my patch for other devices, too. So be patient!
TWRP freezes and nothing happens, what should I do?
Please check if you have the correct driver for your device, installed on your PC.
I already rooted my device. Can I use XperiFIX, too?
Yes. If you used Magisk before, you can use XperiFIX without problems. Because XperiFIX will flash a new kernel which isn't pre-rooted. After that XperiFIX will flash Magisk, which will recognize your last Magisk installation. It will patch the new kernel ramdisk and all is fine. Your Magisk old settings will be there, too. If you want to use SuperSU, you can't use XperiFIX, because it's not implemented yet and I personally won't install and test it cause Magisk is running perfect on Nougat and Oreo, too!
I used XperiFIX but it gives me an error and now my device is in a bootloop!
That's not good dude. Please report what exactly you did, with all informations about your device. I will check it. To get a working device again, you can flash the firmware with Newflasher 10+.
My device doesn't respond, nothing works, it stucks in a bootloop, I can't power off?!
Just hold the VolumeUP(+) key together with the Power key. Wait until the device vibrates 3 times (!). Now it's completely off. Then you can try to go in Fastboot mode again to flash or use XperiFIX.
I have a problem, what can I do?
If your question can't be answered here in the FAQ, please post your report. Be sure to give all needed informations. Which device, which firmware version, what you exactly did, ... Without details, nobody can help you!
What does the fox say?
Hatee-hatee-hatee-ho! ^^

Other versions will follow. I have a G8141 and the relevant files for this device. But I will download the other versions and release these versions also.

@sToRm//
Waiting a kernel and patch for my sony xperia xz1 dual
I will donate when patch is done
Thank you STORM for your time and work
Pls include my country lebanon in the donation country

Will be sources of the patch and kernel available so we can try to port to nonstock ROMs?
Thanks for all you hard work @sToRm//

@sToRm// For me SafetyNet didn't pass. I don't really care though but I wonder why.
Might be xposed's fault.

I need the right version of your kernel. Then I can download the FW and check it.
Lebanon? How can I do that? I have no idea... hahaha...

Freaking great work! Congrats on achieving this finally!
Some thoughts on your instructions: TWRP is officially supported for G8141, why not just use that?
If your patch contains patches system files wouldn't it make sense to create a simple magisk module, to keep it systemless?

thaks a lot 4 your work, how about oreo? here the kernel version is 4.4.78, will it work with your patch? Vielen Dank im Voraus )

If I have some free time, I will write a guide for this. It's a little bit tricky, because you have to understand the reversed code. But I try to create a universal patch.

Hello, just wanted to ask if ist just the stock firmware but with root or an acctual Rom, also: does this version have the Camera2Api and support its super-slow mo? Sorry if i missed something. Great Job by the way

It's just a modified kernel and a patch for a system file. The ROM is stock, the kernel is 99,9% stock. It has no effect to Camera2Api.

Hopefully modders like you will convince Sony and other OEMs to get their heads out of their arses and stop wasting time and money (both ours and theirs) with stupid $hit like these.

can you mod this kernel–G8142_45.0.A.7.90,Created byAndroPlus,Thank you! download link

It cannot be installed to k900. k900 and k910 are 2 complete different devices with different chipsets.
ROM seems worthy of attention.Probably already seen something like this
If you will be improved and refined, will be the best..
I tried to fix google services by Chinese installer, did not help.
I need to have a working phone, so far rom uninstalled.
Correct, and insert the fully operational.

The ROM looks great after couple of hours but I have 1 very annoying problem with this ROM: google play services, google play store and other google apps are crashing very often. Does anyone have idea, why? Wipe cache&davlik cache done. I also played with other GAPPS, but no success. I also read somewhere that xposed can cause, so I removed it also, but I run out of ideas...

[ROM][Android N][Ported From Z3][Developer Preview 2]Android N ROM For Xperia Z2.

Hey guys! Guess what? I'm currently busy on porting the Android N Developer Preview 2 ROM from the Xperia Z3 to Z2! Hope this turns out stable!
Here is the Download link to the ROM below:
Mediafire: http://www.mediafire.com/folder/hp8fnbbxkbb4f/Android N Xperia Z2
IMPORTANT NOTICE!!!
For anyone or everyone saying that I'm, or that this OP is a troll, please stop. This is a WIP, and the ROM did indeed work (when I still had my PC.) I did follow a ROM port guide the first time when it was successful, but now I don't know which one it is. I have contacted some ROM porters for help so I guess that I should wait for an answer to let them help me port it. And for this ROM, it's NOT for stable use yet. This is just for people wanting to test and see if it works at all. If you have your PC at the moment then please and try to fix it yourself. (I'll add you to credits.) Anyway, sorry about the inconvenience, but please don't call me a troll becuase I'm not! �� Cheers.
BUT BEFORE DOWNLOAD, READ THE STEPS BELOW. I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DEVICE BRICKS ETC. THIS ROM IS FOR UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER PHONES ONLY HAVING MODEL NUMBER OF D6503.
Better safe then sorry. Create a ROM backup of your device in TWRP before installing the ROM in Recovery! Download ZipMe from the Play Store to backup some of your important data!
1: Download all of the files that you want to flash from the link given above and place them in the Root of your sdcard.
3: Download the updater-script FOR ROM FIX file and rename the file to updater-script.
4: Extract the ROM and replace the updater-script from the one you downloaded earlier with the one in the ROM (META-INF/google/com/android folder I think.). REZIP the ROM.
5: Reboot into recovery. Click on Wipe then "Adcanced Wipe." Wipe Dalvik Cache, Cach, System, Data, and Internal Storage.
6: Go back after finished. Flash the Android N ROM, then the Optional files. (Root, Media Apps, & And Smoother Boot Animation, backed up data etc.)
7: Flash the custom Kernel. (Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/development/kernel-advanced-stock-kernel-t3347413)
8: Reboot and Enjoy!!!
If anything isn't working or your stuck in a bootloop, try and flash the bootloop fix file from here: https://mega.nz/#!AJcwERiQ!FUmk6eS5aoVsFSZ1f4WZIELIt7sckPCj11n0AIdCNzU
If your still stuck in a bootloop, then the ROM may not be compatible with your device. Use Flashtool to flash back to Lollipop/Marshmallow and wait for a ROM that's compatible with your Phone.

Below Are Some Problems That You May Encounter.
-The Multi-Window is EXTREMELY laggy.
-Some apps don't work such as the Beta Program App Settings. (But then again, it's expected from a port. XD)
-Recovery (TWRP) may no longer work. You can try and install a Kernel and Recovery your self, but be sure to make a Backup before risking your phone into a Bootloop.
-My Bootloader is unlocked, so I HIGHLY recommend only flashing this ROM if you have a Unlocked Bootloader. If not, wait for a Locked Bootloader version!
-No more Sony Media Apps (Walkman Music, Album, Video etc.) after flashing ROM, so flash the Sony Media Apps zip after ROM to restore the Media Apps.
-The Boot Animation is EXTREMLY slow and laggy, (5-8fps) so please flash the Smoother Boot Animation zip after ROM flashed to ensure a smoother, 30fps Boot Animation.
I haven't encountered any other problems as of now, but I will update the list if I find a bug! And once I receive a problem or bug, I will try to patch it and upload it as a Flashable zip file to fix the bug. A Screenshot of Home Screen from Z2 Android N ROM is attached below...
Once the link is given and doesn't work on your device, just tell me the problem that it's going through, give me your device details, (LB or UB device, Model number, IMEI etc.) and I'll double check the ROM and will try to make supported for your device!
As you can see in the screenshot attachment down below, i have changed some of my icons (like the app icons and status bar icons) back to stock Xperia. I wasn't a BIG fan of all of the AOSP icons.

The ROM is working pretty good so far. It isn't 100% fast and stable but it works pretty well. For the bugs, the camera is most of the time unresponsive (Probably because I forgot to change the camera settings and stuff before installing it.) The camera also sometimes force closes. As for the Multi-Window, it's almost totally unusable but I think this is because of the CPU and not the ROM. And some apps also don't work at all, such as the Beta Program App Settings, The Notification bar glitching too small etc. Hopefully i will fix these bugs before final upload! Fingers crossed. X0

Download the FTF via Xperifirm. MM's version number ends in .570.
Then flash using Flashtool. You can choose to wipe or not to wipe data if you're coming from stock lollipop. Just uncheck 'wipe data'. If you follow the steps properly, you should have a smooth upgrade to MM!
Also - could you release a version without the edited status bar icons etc?
Multiwindow maybe working when edit buildprop debug to userdebug ?
This is crazy, only few weeks after the official mm ROM we be gettin Android N. I'm hella shocked right now. We own it to my bruh Brandon

Ur ROM might work wit this recovery
good job!!!
Hi. First thank you for doing this.
You could provide us some information what you did with the N Z3 build to make it work on Z2 so we can reproduce it. I guess you used the Z3 system image and replaced the kernel with a Z2 one. What else was needed to make it work?
Thank you very much.

I'm taking chances that it will work. I'm currently running another prerooted EU firmware (by JackyGreen which is available on XDA) on my Chinese dual sim Z. That's why I believe.

This is very interesting... I begin to suspect, since of some reports, that Motorola has developed an "adaptive to (different) hardware" firmware, so they have to modify a single firmware on updates...
This would be great, because this way every Griffin owner could try to use different countries firmwares and even the development of new ROMs would be faster...
But we need more confirms on this...

Tempted to try on my US moto z, but don't want to brick it. What do you think? Would you be interested in making a de-odex version of the US stock firmware?

INTRODUCTION
I picked up the work that @Schischu and @malosasha have done and plan on improving it with the work i have done on the lineage base.
For now i will only be building for chagallltetmo but this build can be flashed on chagalllte (T805) you will just not have working data/calling/texting due to changes i did to support the T-Mobile variant.
Maybe in the future i will build it for more. If anyone would like to build the other variants i am open to it and it can share this op if desired.
DOWNLOAD

OLDER DOWNLOADs
aosp-chagallltetmo.deadman.20170304.153956.zip
GAPPS
Use OpenGapps
OTA - UPGRADES
They are not supported you will need to manually flash updates
PREREQUISITES
TWRP 3.0.0 or higher. I always use @ashyx newest builds (TWRP builds by @ashyx)
You must be on a lollipop bootloader this can be done by either flashing 5.0.2 stock rom or by flashing this zip in odin https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=4996500813288308788 (This zip is for SM-T807T Only!!)
Don't skip this step! If the incorrect bootloader is used your device WILL NOT BOOT!
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
First time flashing the rom on your device, or coming from another ROM?
Download the zip(s)
Install a compatible Recovery
Perform a nandroid backup of your current ROM (Optional)
Wipe data/factory reset
Flash AOSP
Install the Google Apps addon package (Optional)
Reboot
CURRENT CHANGELOG
3/08/2017
Removed a ton of under the hood hacks and fixed them properly (Shim blobs instead of editing the source to support them, Add mmap support, Fix the wifi state machine instead of disabling ip reachability, etc)
Removed a bunch of proprietary blobs that were not needed (Builds are now 11mb's smaller)
Updated the drm blobs to a newer version from bullhead
Updated the GPS and Bluetooth blobs from stock chagallltetmo
Fix Bluetooth name
GPS locks faster
OLDER CHANGELOGS
3/4/2017 Build
Initial ril support chagallltetmo (Defaults to 3g on first boot)
Added memtrack support from the newer 5422 based bsp that we use on lineage
Fixed mtp host fc on first boot
Fixed video recording
Updated prebuilt omx blobs
Made the QS menu bigger to be inline with lineage
ISSUES
Ril is still very unstable and is not working for everyone
HD Video stutters
More that i may have missed

Kitkat bootloaders do not work anymore so you must upgrade to a lollipop based one. If your on a lollipop one no matter what model you are fine. T805W specifically you can flash this fine you just will not get any form of data/calling/texting same as T805. I put it in the OP because not everyone updates the bootloader.
I think I love you
EDIT: Ok just flashed this. Installed smoothly.
Your OP was correct that it defaulted to 3G, but when I change it to LTE it shows that I have bars but no LTE and connecting to the web says I am not online. Is LTE not working at all?

i'm following this.. how are you guys doing to so far on this rom? ill flash once all is sorted out.. are you guys getting 4g? all else working? what about a phone dial pad? how is it on t-mobile?

Thanks for the update. You were right, it took a while for it to switch over to LTE but it did, it doesnt show bars but it shows LTE. A speed test shows it works but not at full speeds. Will stick with HSPA for now as its faster than the LTE im getting.

Thanks for getting back to me yeah its a bit derpy still just glad it works for now.
An issue I found that wasn't listed has to do with the fingerprint scanner. When setting up a fingerprint for unlock, it is detected and works, but once stored and trying to use the scanner on the unlock screen, nothing. Also trying to remove stored fingerprints crashes the settings app.
Wireless Disconnect
Wireless seems to drop after being connected for a bit and will not let you search for an ssid until you turn it off and then back on again. Battery life is insane and everything else is buttery smooth! You brought life back to this tablet, it sucks we can't use any of the well known roms..or can we?
Thank you so much Deadman for the work on this. Are you planning on mantaining this or do you want us to move to another ROM as well? I don't particularly care for the Cell features as I do a functional stable rom .
Just installed, rom works great... some intermittent in and out on T-mobile network. I have tried everything from Nougat on Lineage to AOKP and neither of them boot.
Iron Man boots but I cant get LTE.
Looking forward to future updates and development on this ROM.
Thanks for Hard Work.

So... Before one year, we were excited about getting "Nougat" and now we're talking about "Oreo" Isn't amazing?
I decided, again lol, to make a new thread about the new version of Android. I read the last few comments in nougat thread but I think will be more organized and clear if there is a new thread about it. For now, we only have one rom - Unofficial version of LineageOS but I have a good feeling about this. Soon, when everything becomes, one idea more stable, the rest will follow :fingers-crossed: . I will try to keep updated this thread with everything around Oreo
PS:
Currently, I'm completely stock so I didn't test any of the stuff below. As always, do a backup before you try anything.

After Oreo rom my M8 longer detects my sim card, What could be the problem?
Update your firmware.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Bugs you may meet in Oreo: Some users report that those things don't work, or may happen to you:
-Video recording ---> Works ONLY with Footej Camera
-Memory Card Bug
Each time restart phone it asks for setting up memory card which never goes away. The simple solution for this headache is to pause the notification for 2 hours by swiping notification.
PS:
Advice 1:
This may help CLICK
Advice 2:
Format your SD Card as Internal memory and you won't see any notification.
-Black screen while listening to music and trying to unlock the phone or simply when to try to unlock it
-HTC Duo Camera. Don't ask about this feature.It doesn't work on any LineageOS/AOSP based rom. Stock rom and GPE only. ​
PS:
Make a backup before you try anything.Need to be on the last version of the firmware (Marshmallow), and use the last version of twrp recovery - 3.2.1.0 to avoid any issues. ​
Wow! A new thread to keep it organized and clean. Long live m8!
Yes, this is great. Organized stuff is always good
When I bought this phone I knew perfectly well about spending too much money but today after more than 3 years I continue to be convinced I have spent my money well. In part I have this to this great community and to these wonderful developers .... welcome Oreo.

Last night I tested LOS 15. I can't belive how fast is it and smooth. It's even faster than Nougat. I even was wondering to try to stay with it xD But then random reboots start happening so ... I guess we will wait a litte bit xD Anyway my point was it's look very promising and its very good for alpha .
I hope you got logs of those random reboots. I was using it for three days and didn't suffer from any reboot
I wanted to try oreo, but I'm a bit worried about system partition resize.

So I wanted to ask - If I get bored of oreo then I have to just flash my current rom(ice 8.2.2.) and then restore the nandroid backup or else restore will fail?

In TWRP go to WIPE then advance, select only SYSTEM then select repair or change file system menu. In this menu select resize partition, swipe to resize. Completed, main menu reboot - recovery
Your system partition back to normal .. you can restore your backup or install ROM
You also can do this right after you installed Oreo & gapps before you reboot. Later once you get bored, no need to repeat the process, simply restore backup or install other ROM
Is there gapps 8.0 Stock available?

Last time I search I didn't find any working mod with Oreo, for now, other way I would put them in the first post. Can't say about the footej, any error?
As of now there's no audio mods that I've found to be compatible with LOS 15. I've tried all forms of V4Android, V4Arise, Deuteronomy, Ainur, Magnum Opus, HK, LITERALLY anything and everything I can find has been flashed trying to find a solution for us. Spent over 24 hours flashing mods to get bootloops or FC's. LOS 15 audio quality is good but I want the best possible sound as I listen to music on different devices "daily". I'll update here when I find something compatible or the normal mods are updated. If anyone knows of something "working" it would be great it you shared. Thanks

I don't think any audio mod will work for now until devices where the audio mod are taken from are updated/released with Oreo.
Any equalizer app in Play Store won't work too, complaining no AudioFX to work with.
A friend with N6P on stock Oreo has same problem, so it is not only M8 issue.

Nope as their previous release broke my gps app & also the mod made the black screen issue worse, frequent instead of random.
