Hi all. Will 2.8.7 work with both z2 (mine) and z3 (friend) with flashable includes in prerooted firmware? Thanks in advantage and thanks again Nut for your hard work! <3

[Sony Cross-Device General] MaSsAcRe1992:
Hey Nut thanks for the recovery, installed everything and after holding volume down while vibrating and green led burn, the led become red and the phone starts normal. 5.0.2 pre rooted

Thanks :))
[Sony Cross-Device General] FcukBloat:
confirm works fine here z3c LB I could create pre-rooted fw with 2.8.7 flashable recovery inside great at last no need to install third scripts apart from the pc! :) :victory::good:;)
[Sony Cross-Device General] Cash Machine:
Does anybody else get an "Android is upgrading... Starting Apps" message on every boot after installing this? It started with the fix and 2.8.3 and persists across 2.8.7 and even a re-install [without data wipe] of prerooted Lollipop.

I just wanted to check if this is normal before I completely wipe and start over to try to get rid of it.

It's also not a huge deal [it's only the starting apps message, not fully rebuilding the cache], but it bugs me. Best I can find elsewhere is that it's an odex issue but I can't find evidence of that being the case in the usual directories.
[Sony Cross-Device General] ravdo:
Nope, only once on the first reboot.
[Sony Cross-Device General] profprof:
Same problem here too my friend, i wonder why this is happening
[Sony Cross-Device General] Cash Machine:
I do know that certain startup scripts can cause the message to appear, so it's possible that this is what's causing it [and likely, considering this is the only thing that changed with my system before the message started showing up]. Just odd that not everybody is seeing it.
[Sony Cross-Device General] hispanico957:
BIG BIG Thank NUT... just a clarification i have at this moment LP rooted, with TWRp 2.83 activated with byeselinux... so to update this procedure il always right ??

How????????

Dude, Where did you find this 23.2.A.xxxx firmware? in XperiFirm its available only for Germany Telecom.de.. Your one also same to this operator or what? please reply if any external links available for generic firmwares (Not an operator related one).. Thanks :confused:
[Sony Cross-Device General] Omibus:
Anybody tested it on a Z2 (D6503) yet?
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
It's clear where my focus was the past week, but I'm not blind or deaf, I noticed the notifications about issues in TWRP.

In that regard, I have a request:

The advanced menu has a button 'copy log to sd'. When done doing what you want, tap that button and attach the log here.

NOTE: the log will contain your device serial, you may open it using a text editor and remove that from the log.

Once I have gathered a set of logs I will be able to chat with the guys from team win and will try to find out what's wrong. Maybe it's something I did wrong, or because they are changing so freaking much the past few releases, they simply didn't notice things slowly breaking.

hi everyone i've a little problem here i have z2 d6503 on 4.4.4 i have downgrade to 4.4.2 to make a full root it's done,

i make afew test on rootexplorer, and freedom ..etc and it's a full root.

i make recovery for flash lollipop prerooted but when when i'm done this not a full root i's HALF ROOT

for example : when i open freedom ask for grant access for root and make start for server when i make stop the app says

"write permission on system partition are required in order to use freedom" some apps work with root and other not working

but when i on 4.4.2 all apps work great with root and when work on freedom i can make start and stop without any msg

so what's is problem here

Nope, nothing changed, just simplified the changelog a bit. I'm planning on a major overhaul of the ramdisk images for the next full version, CWM is still able to wreck the cache partitions, probably caused by /sbin/ric as it only happens when on locked bootloader.

Most probably not :)

Exit any phone related application, pc companion, flashtool, sus and the likes, then open up task manager and check if there is any adb or fastboot still running. Kill them and try again.
[Sony Cross-Device General] caqo71:
NUT's post is the Key.

If you're installing recoveries, root xploits, or any installation that uses Adb drivers, then you must to check task maneger every time you need to use another windows to phone adb related install. Some installations let the adb driver in use, so the next time that you need to use some windows adb installation, it may fail due to an existing adb.exe runing. check that out before proceed. :good:

Hello [MENTION=4904057][NUT][/MENTION]

I wanna ask something. I was using stock 4.2.2 (with your dual recovery 2.5 beta iirc) and decided to try Monx' Honami i1 modded rom.

I used twrp and wiped "system" "data" and "dalvik" than flashed the rom.

And guess what! your dual recovery still there. It survived. How come this happens :confused:
[Sony Cross-Device General] up2dateneurosis:
Got exactly the same problem with my Z1c. I used the lastest version of dualrecovery 2.8.7. Is there a solution?
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
For the moment you can replace TWRP inside the installer or flashable with version from 2.8.3 installer...it's a ".lzma" file.
[Sony Cross-Device General] up2dateneurosis:
Sorry but i cant find the older version :eek:

Do somebody have a link for me? ;)

[Sony Cross-Device General] ejstubbs:
Many thanks [NUT] for your hard work on this, beer tokens will be on their way to you shortly.

I have successfully build a kernel for my Z3C using 2.8.7 and the UK customised version of the .77 stock ROM kernel. Excellent! :good::good::good:

The result is a flashable zip. Am I right in thinking that I can install the kernel by using fastboot to flash just the boot.img from this .zip file, using Flashtool? I realise that this won't give me the NDR Utils that are also packaged in the zip but I can get those afterwards.
[Sony Cross-Device General] hispanico957:
In 2.83 there these file:

recovery.cwm.cpio.lzma

recovery.philz.cpio.lzma

recovery.twrp.cpio.lzma

All ??

Tk

Hispa
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
Of course replace only twrp one..
[Sony Cross-Device General] hispanico957:
Ok only recovery.twrp.cpio.lzma , but you think that it's solve also my problem in previuos post ?

Hispa
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
You can fastboot flash the boot.img from the tmp folder inside the zip, then boot to recovery and flash the entire package to install NDRUtils.
[Sony Cross-Device General] up2dateneurosis:
Hmmm i replaced the 2.8.7 recovery.twrp.cpio.lzma file with the one from the 2.8.3 release and i got no error. Sounds fine, but my phone still does not boot. I will flash a ftf file now again to get it alife :silly: Than i root again and hope that somebody has another suggestion for me.

I've made a pre-rooted .zip with the 2.8.7 and latest Super SU. On my first test I downgraded to 4.4.2 and installed the newest recovery. Then I made a prerooted .zip and flashed it without wiping anything. I got root and everything seemed to be OK, but on my second test I wiped system,data,cache, internal storage and these 2 errors appeared, do the mean something?

I'm answering myself: My phone got into bootloop. Had to start from the begining.

After installing 2.8.7, the first boot goes to recovery. With play store update it stops booting to recovery...

Z3C & Z2T, both running .690 LP without working recovery or system r/w.

I've been out of the country, without access to a PC, for a week (since [MENTION=3975929]zxz0O0[/MENTION] blessed us with byeselinux) so I've only been able to watch all that has happened with the good work from [MENTION=4904057][NUT][/MENTION]. Now, it's time for me to upgrade.

Do I just use NUT's latest 2.8.7 release installer? Or should I apply byeselinux and ricdefeat to what I have, and then flash NUT's flashable 2.8.7? Thank you!
[Sony Cross-Device General] ejstubbs:

[Sony Cross-Device General] GoDExtremE:
What's the difference between using 2.8.3 with byeselinux and 2.8.7*?

Btw I have my d6633 working fine with: xzdr 2.8.3, byeselinux, xposed, gravitybox and many other mods including system r/w.

And of course, LP .690 (6603 with modem patch lol)
[Sony Cross-Device General] zohan99:
2.8.7 uses TWRP 2.8.6.0
[Sony Cross-Device General] GoDExtremE:
Which means it is just updated..

My twrp for instance can't flash the xposed arm zip.. But with phils it works fine.

I would like to know if there is any security reason to update my xzdr to 2.8.7 or 2.8.3 with byeselinux is okay.

Thanks in advance.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Guto ViP:
Z3 5.0.2 updated from 2.8.3 (with byeselinux and SGP621-RICDefeat) to 2.8.7 and all is ok... Root, TWRP and mount R/W with ES Explorer.

Thank you for all!!!

[Sony Cross-Device General] luminoso:
[MENTION=410007]Nut[/MENTION] is the recovery 2.8.7 installation that is preventing me from setting SELinux to Permissive?

Because no matter what it sets to enforce, preventing me from running xposed. I tried to reinstall byeselinux.zip with no success.

Reinstalling 2.8.3 + byeselinux allows me to run xposed again
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
It actually shouldn't interfere with anything. It loads and then unloads byeselinux to prepare for a recovery boot, but that is it... Not sure why you have that problem...

Not entirely sure if the change to wp_mod has anything to do with that, but that is selinux unrelated...

For me, the selinux mode change app allows setting it to permissive with ease... And it sticks.
[Sony Cross-Device General] luminoso:
Indeed, changing using the app SELinux Mode Changer reports it has changed (the grayed button change), however xposed logs report "enforcing: yes" and xposed module loaded is prevented.

EDIT:

It looks like that enforcing is enabled after reboot.

For example:

shell@D5803:/ $ sestatus
sestatus
SELinux status: enabled
SELinuxfs mount: /sys/fs/selinux
Current mode: enforcing
Mode from config file: enforcing
Policy version: 26
Policy from config file: sepolicy

shell@D5803:/ $ su -c setenforce[B] permissive[/B]
su -c setenforce permissive

shell@D5803:/ $ sestatus
sestatus
SELinux status: enabled
SELinuxfs mount: /sys/fs/selinux
Current mode: permissive
Mode from config file: permissive
Policy version: 26
Policy from config file: sepolicy

reboot.

After reboot:

shell@D5803:/ $ sestatus
sestatus
SELinux status: enabled
SELinuxfs mount: /sys/fs/selinux
Current mode: enforcing
Mode from config file: enforcing
Policy version: 26
Policy from config file: sepolicy

SELinux permissive doesn't stick with 2.8.7, only with 2.8.3 + byeselinyx (note that flashing 2.8.3 over 2.8.7 isn't enough (downgrade) flashing byeselinux.zip must also be flashed for a complete downgrade)

Would be fair to give proper credits don't you think...
[Sony Cross-Device General] zxz0O0:
Looks more like a problem of the app. You can simply create a script to run the setenforce command at every boot.
[Sony Cross-Device General] luminoso:
Hum... how to make sure it is set to permissive before xposed starts?
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
I have xposed working while selinux set enforcing....

EDIT Xposed indeed works, it loads, installs modules etc. but for example 20MP SuperiorAuto module does not work when SELinux enabled. Therefore reverting back to XZDualRecovery 2.8.3 + byeselinux..

Here`s my story:

Z3 - D6603

Started from original rom, latest kitkat

Downgraded to kitkat D6603_23.0.A.2.98 and rooted. Saved drm`s.

Installed recovery 2.8.7 - recovery, drmutils and everything worked fine.

Made pre-rooted lollipop rom .690.

Wiped almost everything on twrp recovery except sd-card - flashed lollipop .690 from recovery - had same errors as everyone else.

Phone booted - and partial root - no recovery. No r/w access. No recovery from drmutils. SuperSU ok.

Tried to install recovery again - no fix.

What I did wrong ?

Used to work a lot with GalaxyS3 - Note2 - AcerA1 - SamsungP3100 before and never had any problems.

I have z2 indian variant
[Sony Cross-Device General] cantthinkofone:
I have had rooted KK with XZDR on Z3 compact ever since giefroot was released. Today I decided I wanted to update to LP, so I tried to enter recovery but I couldn't. From NDRUtils, Gravitybox "reboot to recovery" in power menu or booting device holding volume keys I was unable to enter recovery, it just booted normally to Android.

I downloaded 2.8.7 installer and encountered one error:

mkdir: can't create directory '/storage/sdcard1/XZDualRecovery': Read-only file system

The phone rebooted to Android instead of recovery and I still can't enter recovery. What is there to try now?

Root w/ SuperSU is all OK.

From NDRUtils -> reboot to primary recovery I get a red LED on the Sony logo for about 2s as well as 3 brief vibrates before it boots to Android.

Also I don't think I should have sdcard1, right? I have no SD inserted into my phone, so it should be using sdcard0..
