[Xperia Z1 Android Development] DESASTER75:
Hi guys!

Would like to get this ROM flashed but it's not working!

Do have 6903-version (unbranded)!

1st try (with 1.1) I did:

I did as following:

- installed ADB-drivers

- installed Kingo-Root

- installed Flashtool-drivers

- installed Flashtool

- unpacked Dual-CWM-files

- unpacked TA-Backup

- unbox Z1

- boot

- check firmware (was something about 51x or so)

- downloaded firmware 534

- started Z1 within Flashmode

- connected Z1 with USB-cable to PC

- pressed 'volume -* + green LED blinked

- started installed 'Flashtool'

- pressed the 'Flash'

- picked 'Flashmode'

- picket 534-firmwarefile

- flashed

- unplugged cable

- reboot

- set up google-account

- DID not made OTA-Update

- stopped Auto-App-restore from Google Play

- went to XPERIA-conectivity-options

- PC-Compagnion-install disabled

- picked correct USB-connection-modus

- ticket allow unknown source-install

- ticket USB-debugging within developer-menu

- started Kingo

- plugged Z1 with USB-cable

- waited till driver/stuff was synched

- 'Root'-option was able to be clicked

- clicked

- 'Root succeeded' appears

- did an TA-Backup and ticked SuperSu-request while backing up

- put iHackers V1.1 onto external SD-card

- went to 'Dual-CWM'-folder and double-clicked 'Run.bat'

- CWM-window appeared

- clicked 1 (= SuperSU)

- once done, Z1 rebooted into recovery

- rebooted into recovery once again

- did complete Nandroid-backup

- did Wipe Data, factory Reset + Davlik

- installed ROM by using my options I would have to be installed

- installed 257-Kernel with Flashtool -> Flashmode -> pickde Kernelfile -> flashed

- Reboot

- installed ALL needed apps

- did ALL settings I would like to use

ISSUES on first try (with 1.1):

- camera crashes all the tie (even BL is still not open)

- statusbar was gone until some minutes till some services have been started

- dual-recovery was gone

SOLUTION:

- took 534-firmware and downgraded Z1 again

- root again

- ...

2nd try (with 1.2) I did:

1) Use flashtool to flash 534 (connect Z1 with PC, start flashtool, flash, Flashmode, pick 534-firmware, flash)

1-2) reboot

2) Root it (Kindo)

2-1) reboot

3) Let it update OTA (just download OTA + install)

4) Install DualRecovery (file name: ZU-lockeddualrecovery2.7.42-BETA.windows.zip) - (unpack on PC, double-click *.bat, install by using 'supersu')

4-1) reboot and hold 'Volume +'

5) Enter Recovery, factory reset, clear cache, clear dalvik.

5-1) iHacker 1.2 on external card

5-2) install zip from ... + follow instructions

6) Follow the installation guide to install the rom of your choice.

6-1) NO REBOOT

6-2) stay in recovery and install zip from external card and flash the 'Z1-lockeddualrecovery2.7.42-BETA.zip''

6) Reboot

7) Should be done I thought

ISSUES on first try (with 1.2):

- after 5), I wanted to start flashing 1.2 but external SD was not detected (withon 1.2)

- copied 1.2 onto internal SD -> error-message 'bad' or 'error' while trying to get 1.2 flashed

QUESTIONS:

1) How am I able to get that 1.2 flashed?

2) How am I able to get 1.2 known on external SD?

3) How am I able to avoid issues mentioned unter 1st try (camera out of function, Dual-CWM-disappear, status-bar-disappear)

Thanks and just try to give an step-by-step-tut to me (maybe copy-n-paste the steps I mentioned)!

Thanks + Good night,
