Has someone already tested this here? Rootkit for 370 firmware...

https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=d419e72a27c5bdd1&id=D419E72A27C5BDD1!184&authkey=!AJ8L2VsFvaoNTM4

Does it work like this here? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2186368

And I also want to unlock the bootloader and install CWM - can that be done after applying the rootkit? Or is the bootloader unlockability broken after? (The text in the second links seems to suggest such, if I understand it right...)

Or can I unlock the bootloader first and THEN apply the rootkit? Or is the rootkit only for device with locked bootloader???

(It is, admittedly, very confusing here at the time, so excuse my incessant questions...)
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] theZest:
SGP312 one is attached here.
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] hasenbein1966:
Here is the build.prop from my SGP311, unrooted, BL still locked, FW .370:
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] anthrax132:
Just tried on mine, and guess what...IT WORKS.

So far, no bugs, even NFC is working correctly
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] keyz86:
What method? Which model tab? And what firmware version?
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] anthrax132:
The one pointed on this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=42759820&postcount=126

Simply have ADB set up, and launch the .bat

SGP311, 16Go...and black if you mind :p

Stock 10.1.C.0.370
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] jasonfoknxu:
I am looking forward for the root medthod of Xperia Tablet Z SGP321~

I know the process is going on. Thank you for your development...

Besides, is it for .307 version only? I have not updated yet but I will update it as soon as possible.

Good luck!

(Sorry for my poor English)
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] keyz86:
Haha thank you, is this likely to work on the LTE model? Also black :P.
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] anthrax132:
Dunno, mine's wifi only.

But afaik, it shouldn't be a problem for the LTE version, as it only modify some files not related to radio (but maybe some more experienced devs could confirm this before you risk your tab ;) )
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] keyz86:
I risked it and it did nothing :(.
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] anthrax132:
Any "error" showed? Might be dificult to see,as this seems to be coded in chinese/japanese/korean/klingon

On mine, it started, transfered some files, stuck for some seconds, and then the tab rebooted. I unplugged it after that, and it was rooted
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] theZest:
Lmao

It's Japanese.
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] keyz86:
Unfortunately the only readable words said something like 'Please Wait..." and then "Press any button to continue." Nothing about any errors or codes.
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] SWFlyerUK:
I too am rooted. The solution has worked for me.

Very please - but not sure what it's done exactly, couldn't read it lol
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] keyz86:
WiFi for LTE model?
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] SWFlyerUK:
sgp311. Wifi.
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] k03703:
confirmed work on mine too sgp311 wifi with 370
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] keyz86:
Looks like this only works on the WiFi only model :(
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] zhenyu86:
U guys can get roots for SGP321 on firmware 307, just a little more complicated

Steps:

1. Use Flashtool to flash the latest 307 firmware, reboot when done

2. Start the Phone, make sure Unknown Resource, and USB debug is on

3. Flash the CWM Recovery here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2295694 , this 1 is for 253 firmware, but u are just using this to root, u will flash back to 307 kernel later

4. Once ur done flashing, go into recovery, select Reboot System, Select Yes, Root Device

5. once u reboot, u can download SuperSU from market, and U'll be rooted.

6. then use Flashtool again, locate your 307 tft, check everything, except Kernel, uncheck, Data, Cache, Appslog, this will flash 307 kernel back into the system. Done
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] keyz86:
This requires unlocking the bootloader which we don't want to do.
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] DooMLoRD:
wait so on which firmware do u guys want rooting?
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] keyz86:
307 on the SGP LTE Model :)
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] zhenyu86:

Thank you so much, worked perfectly, i am so happy i finally have root! Check your PayPal and have a good weekend!
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] DooMLoRD:
thank you for your kind donation!
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] keyz86:
Thank you for your hard work! Do you think OTA Root Keeper will work when we finally get 4.2? Are all root keepers the same or are some better than others?
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] DooMLoRD:
i guess OTA root keeper should work...

BTW by the looks of things, since Xperia ZL already got the 4.2.2 update and it was rootable using this same hack, the 4.2.2 firmware of Xperia Tablet Z might be rootable :) (if Sony doesnt bother to patch this exploit)
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] SWFlyerUK:
Hi mate, good work!

Is this the same as the method that was in Japanese? I used that method whichever worked.

No word on 4.2.2 for this tablet from what I can see, I assumes its planned, but that's a discussion for another thread :)
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] DooMLoRD:
i am not really sure...

the three of us (me, fi01 & hiikezoe) have collaborated to get this exploit working on multiple devices...

we are improving it everyday :)
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] jasonfoknxu:
I am so sorry but I want to ask how can I comform I have installed the adb drivers for the Tablet Z LTE???

but do u have an idea: how i can unlock my bootloader to get a customrom on it? (the offizial method of sony doenst work for me)

[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] b8drf:
I haven't tried it myself (yet) - I am still on OTA .244 (unrooted) but plan to follow these steps at some point over the next day or so ...
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] zXioNGz:
Oh hmm, so it only work for those updated via PC companions?

I think I'm staying away from that root procedure for now, seems complicated and requires to unlock BL, hopefully we see a easier version soon haha, kind of regretted upgrading to 4.2.2 :(
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] Crake:
I guess i hope the same !!!
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] gerzii:
OTA doesnt work for me :(

its downloading, rebooting, it begins to install for a few seconds, reboots and after logging in it says: installation not sucessful. try again.

what can i do?
[Xperia Tablet Z Android Development] dhchris:
Yes, i can confirm this problem. Same on my sgp321 (stock rom, rooted, SuperSu in survivalmode, rootkeeper installed).

How can i (we) resolve the Problem?
[Xperia Z General] gm007:
Good work,just add tutorial in the title.
[Xperia Z General] abd_alazeez2002:
I think you should add why we need flashing, as some ppl might ask what to do if we got a boot loop.

Other than that, this tutorial is great
[Xperia Z General] Mr. Droid:
Thanks for this! as a first time user of Sony devices, this will help me.

Thank you
[Xperia Z General] Natakranta:
Nice & tidy :good: bookmarked

Maybe a link to unbranded ROM download in point 4. Or are they country specific?
[Xperia Z General] shadowboy23:
Well the stock ROMs are all over the place. Some are in the Android development thread and some in general thread. So people will have find the what stock ROM they want.
[Xperia Z General] Mobe1969:
Awesome tutorial!
[Xperia Z General] KP_:
Great tutorial, you have my thanks :good:

Now a bit off topic if I may: having a carrier branded phone, if i flash one of the generic ROMs does it mean that:

1. I'll get rid of all the carrier bloatware?

2. My updates won't be conditioned by the carrier anymore (as in I will get my updates whenever the region the FTF is from gets them)?

My apologies if this has been clarified somewhere else (I couldn't find any definitive answers)
[Xperia Z General] skywalker1970:
I have the attached problem, Can any one help?
[Xperia Z General] shadowboy23:
Hi, yes if you flash any stock ROM you will get rid of the carrier branding and any bloatware.
[Xperia Z General] shadowboy23:
Okay I will try my best.

Is your XZ stock? I meant unrooted.

Is everything stock?

Bootloader locked?

Are the drivers installed?

Did you turn the phone OFF and connect the USB cable while holding down the volume DOWN button?

EDIT:

Looks like your device is not recognised as you can see in the picture below:

Look at this picture below:
[Xperia Z General] Androxyde:
Use beta5 from here , and apply update to beta6 from here. With previous beta, loader was not included in the FTF, in such case, loader is deducted from phone infos. In your case, your phone infos are not present.

loader is selected with this priority list : first ftf bundle then phone infos.

in beta6, I added a fallback to device list user input to select the right device manually and such the right loader.
[Xperia Z General] skywalker1970:

I have always used stock ROMs and I can do screen capture on my XZ.

Yeah, I think I may have corrupted some system data or changed permissions down the line because I was able to capture 4-5 days ago. No biggie.

how can i do it?

i'am with rooted sgh i747 with paranoidKANGdroid 4.2.2 rom.

thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dima470:
My guess is find it in the filesystem with a root explorer and put your desired file in using the same audio format and renaming it to the original.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mooshon:
ok i found the lock file,but i can't delete it and when i try to put his name to the new rington i can't copy it into the system file whre it's should be
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Xback:
For changing lock sound

U will get it in system memory in

System/media/audio/ui

name i guss lock.ogg

Just change it with urs:)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mooshon:
what is urs?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
system has to be in R/W as well. It won't you change anything if you are in R/O
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mooshon:
ok,everything is on rw now i put the new rington on the same name with the same file end and now i don't have lock sound at all (i delete the old one)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:
Did you use a .ogg file?

Also, Make sure it's case sensitive, so make sure it's ''Lock.ogg''
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mooshon:
what do you mean "ogg file" took mp3 file and changed his name to lock.ogg did i make it wrong?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mooshon:
:confused:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:
Look for a mp3 to ogg converter on the play store.

Also, search before doing stuff like this. Google is magic ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] corbn89:
You should try actually converting your soundbyte to .oog rather than just renaming the file

So I got CM10 up and running and kept getting an error with .android.media so I powered off. When i reboot it doesn't go past the "Warning bootloader unlocked screen". I google it and find something that says to try to wipe \sdcard. I do that and now backups and rom files are gone from CWM...I think I really screwed up this time...

EDIT: I suppose my actual question is what I do now since all the files are gone
[Motorola Atrix HD] deeje00:
Yea wiping the sd card was a bar idea. All of your stuff is gone now. Your gonna have to flash stock with rsd. For future reference you generally only wipe data and factory reset. Also you might wanna go and read through all the information about what everything does and how it works. Because it seems like your kinda guessing and don't really know what your doing and your gonna end up bricking your phone.

[Motorola Atrix HD] Wolf_Gang09:
Ok, I've flashed stock before. I just get the file, remove the "getvar" lines then...transfer to phone? Last time I did this my phone was actually functioning.
[Motorola Atrix HD] deeje00:
.. No. Go into the android development section and get a stock rom then you put your phone in fastboot mod and flash the file through rsd lite.

Sent from my Rage MATRIX HD MAXX
[Motorola Atrix HD] Wolf_Gang09:
So I finally downloaded the file but now my computer wont install the device drivers -_- It says it failed and I'm guessing its because the phone won't boot. Since the drivers wont install it isn't picking up the device (i think). Is there anything else I can do?

EDIT: I just remembered why we have the Internet.
[Motorola Atrix HD] deeje00:
Yeah.. You can go to the Motorola site and get the drivers lol.

What the heck its still not being listed as a storage option to transfer files to. Unless I'm (unsurprisingly) doing something wrong again...
[Motorola Atrix HD] deeje00:
Dude you don't transfer files to it. Like I said earlier put the phone in ap fastboot and flash the att firmware with rsd lite.

I'm in fastboot but after that you lost me. This is the last time I mess with my phone like this.
[Motorola Atrix HD] deeje00:
Good man. You don't need to brick it lol. Google a program called rsd lite. Its for your computer. Plug your phone in in fastboot mode and make sure you have the drivers installed. Then rsd will find your phone and you just install the att firmware.

Sent from my JokerMATRIX HD MAXX
[Motorola Atrix HD] Wolf_Gang09:
The firmware thing is where I'm lost at. I don't exactly know where to get it. From a stock rom on the Development section like you said? So just download the rom onto computer and flash

[Motorola Atrix HD] Wolf_Gang09:
There was a thread somewhere on the Atrix HD section saying to use the Motorola Photon Q's clockworkmod and a bunch of people were saying it worked fine. I did it and you helped me flash the rom using clockwork. The cyanogen I flashed is the one in the Development section with the working camera. I restored my stuff with titanium and it said to reboot. I was going to bed so I just hit Power Off and when i tried to turn it back on it got stuck at the bootloader unlock screen,
[Motorola Atrix HD] deeje00:
Did you make sure to wipe data and system along with the cache? And mount the system before flashing?

Sent from my JokerMATRIX HD MAXX
[Motorola Atrix HD] Wolf_Gang09:
I don't know if I mounted the system...I just did exactly what the instructions on the post said: 0. Backup, then Format System

1. Install the ROM

2. Install my AHD Fix -- must disable zip file verification

3. Wipe Data/Factory Reset

4. Wipe Cache

5. Reboot and enjoy!

I did all of this.
[Motorola Atrix HD] deeje00:
Wipe data and and cache should be before flashing the rom.. Because that basically deletes the rom lol.

You also don't need the fix. Use the newest cm 10 with the working camera. Did you try to re zip after extracting and moving things around?

Sent from my JokerMATRIX HD MAXX
[Motorola Atrix HD] Wolf_Gang09:
I don't know how to rezip so I'm guessing I didn't...

Also I tried to flash the file in the link but after it compressed it it said that some files were missing. Now when I try to close RSD it says that the application is busy and exiting may damage my device. It doesnt appear to be doing anything though...Its been like that for at least 40mins and most of the buttons are greyed out.

EDIT: I realized it deleted the rom so I changed the order I did things in when I flashed CM10
[Motorola Atrix HD] deeje00:
Did you update all the phone drivers? Take this as a lesson. Don't do anything unless you at least 50% understand or even know how to use the things lol. Because I can't do it for you from here and there's only so much I can explain man.

Sent from my JokerMATRIX HD MAXX
[Motorola Atrix HD] Wolf_Gang09:
I updated before flashing the rom. I thought it did that automaticly when you plugged it in? Before this Im not entirely sure...I googled "atrix hd drivers" and clicked on a link to Moto's website and it downloaded Motorola device manager...I don't think that was what I was looking for.
[Motorola Atrix HD] Wolf_Gang09:
When I decompress the file to be flashed with RSD I get an error message: Please check input file. Either XML format is wrong or image files associated with it are missing. OMG what have I done??

At this point I have no idea what to tell you man.. Maybe someone else can help.
