There is no problem whatsoever with the ROM. Just follow the steps mentioned in the OP and you will be fine. & No, recovery is not included, you can download it from [NUT]'s Host and flash it after you flash the rom. I would recommend unlocking the bootloader though.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] fer2503:
ok so i have to follow all the step and add the flash of [NUT]'s recovery after flashing the purestock.zip?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] iHackers:
I haven't tested recovery on LB. But yeah, it should work (If Nut's recovery is fine). You are on LB or on UB?

@iHackers

a. let me know if I'm getting on your nerves, I don't want to be a bother.

b. let me know if the following makes sense:

I haven't tested .290 from this thread, but posters seem to be ok with it.

I downloaded the Kernel+Baseband .290 ftf in your OP and attempted to build my K+BB .290 for C9606.

I basically matched file for file, folder for folder of whatever appears in your .290 for C903 with the .290 for C9606.

Your K+BB weights 11.2MB, my K+BB weights 8.5MB.

I'm going to follow the installation steps in your OP, subsituting your .290 in the last step with my own creation.

Wish me luck.

Since I can't unlock my bootloader, I think I can always restore system with PC Companion.

Either way, wish me luck.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] iHackers:
I already replied to you on PM.

a. No, you are not getting on my nerves. Actually, you can't get on my nerves, only my girlfriend can do that. :p

b. Yeah, all of it makes sense.

Regarding kernel, leave that part for now. Excluding system while flashing the ftf using flashtool will do the same. Simply try flashing the ROM as it is and select 6903 as your device and then flash the kernel and it should work fine.

I am currently working on the Next Release of the iHackers ROM. I will release it by tonight.

whats your take on the brick bug going around ive just downloaded your 1.2 (4.2.2) rom to revert back as i was starting to worry lol :p

is your new rom this one (pure stock) or is it the full modded one in other thread as ill wait flashing if it is

thanks
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Hobbes2099:
leapfrogged into 4.3

don't know what I did wrong, but I never had a chance to not reboot device after installing .zip via recovery.

device refused to boot properly and the FTF I made couldnt be read by Flashtool.

Flashed .290 for C9606 from previously mentioned thread, device started without a hitch.

I'll try rolling back to .534 and start again this afternoon.

If I understood you correctly, after installation through recovery, I should use K+BB .290 for C6903.

Should it look like this?

any idea why I couldn't stop the process from going directly into reboot?

I used CWM instead of TWRP, I'll try TWRP this time.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] kischde:
Edit:

Dunno what went wrong but everything running fine and smooth now :)
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] adamo86:
Do you think TA is linked to Sony select.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] kischde:
I assumed Sony Select might use our DRM keys when connecting to the servers, yes. But as you can´t connect although you´re on stock/locked BL it seems as if I´m wrong.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] adamo86:
Sony select is working looks like server issues.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] eCaravanier:
What's the best kernel to run with this rom? I flashed Doomkernel first but the battery drain was really not viable as a daily driver, so I reflashed the .ftf file from the OP until I can find something else, so no more recovery for now, which can be a handicap too.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] raziel123:

Followed all instructions in the op, but upon powering on all I get is a vibration, screen doesn't even turn on,

Any help would be much appreciated guys

[Xperia Z1 Android Development] iHackers:
Flash iHackers Advanced Stock Kernel. It has Dual Recovery (Philz + TWRP) already included in it.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] iHackers:
Did you flash the kernel? Are you on LB or on UB?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] iHackers:
In simple terms:

If you have UB its best and the easiest. If you don't then simply make sure that you have a working recovery.

When you have a working recovery, simply flash the ROM and select C6903 as your device in the Aroma Installer. After Installation Switch Off the Phone (Do Not Reboot).

Then Flash the Kernel from the OP (C6903 will be fine), If you have your own .290 FTF then its best, Select exclude system and flash the ftf after you have installed the ROM.

Enjoy the ROM.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] raziel123:
Yes I did flash the kernel using flashtool several times.

On locked bootloader

Phone still doesn't boot up.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] iHackers:
I would suggest that you refollow all the steps mentioned in the OP. I am sure you tripped somewhere in the middle. If you can't see even the Sony Boot Logo, then you probably flashed the wrong kernel. Flash the FTF stock ftf again with full wipe.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] raziel123:
I followed. All instructions in op, several times, flashed the C6903 kernel several times

I still cannot get the phone to boot,

Gone back to stock rom at the moment

I can't see what I'm doing wrong..
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] adamo86:
Did you check no final verification?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] raziel123:
No I didn't check that,

Am I supposed. To check it?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] adamo86:
"no final verification"

Yes you check that with 4.3.

Root issue

Managed to install the Rom with Philz version of the Recovery, but I can't update SuperSU binaries, or remove system apps,

any solutions to this would be much appreciated guys.

regards
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] TagEHeuer:
Follow the guide, so I would flash 290 again yes.

Does the Pure Stock take away anything to do with notifications (bloat, etc?), or apps speaking to the notifications? For example since putting Pure stock on with the Doom Kernel, a few apps won't notify me. I took off the Pure stock ROM and it then works perfectly... any ideas?

UPDATE: Fixed the issue.

[Xperia Z1 Android Development] magwart:
Is there any issues flashing this on a C6906?

It appears it does not. Seemed to have hard bricked the phone after flashing the kernel, no lights no response nothing.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] TagEHeuer:
Could you explain something, what are the advantages of having your own Kernel on the phone? I can't find any information on your kernel apart from a download link.

I did have DoomLord's kernel but it changed to 3.4.0-perf-g4f35567 BuildUser@BuildHost #1 Tue Nov 19 19:53:25 2013 without me doing anything... Do I just flash the ftf file to my phone as normal (In Flashboot or flashmode?) Do I need to wipe things before and start over again?

Thank you. :good:

[Xperia Z1 Android Development] gaboh24:
okay i have full root now with locked bootloader, but the only bothers me right now is in software info my file system version is "Global-HSPA" it should be "Global-LTE" my model is C6903..
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] [Fenix]:
With UB some features like x-reality (bravia engine for the 2012 phones) stops working so you can't use them

As Sony says

but in certain cases the loss is not evident ;)

The bootloader is connected with DRM, that works at hardware level, but to unlock you have to follow the instructions by Sony
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Hobbes2099:
Thanks.

I meant specifically the devices (such as mine) that explicitly state the bootloader as Unlockable.

I know some people in Sony. It's an extremely long shot, but I could ask.

Before asking for the impossible, I wanted to know if with the right setup, Sony could unlock a phone they sold as Unlockable.

Thanks!

DEV after flashing your rom to my C6903 my phone becomes Globa-HSPA instead of Global-LTE in software info..
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] zhihao4456:
How did u relock ur bootloader? And how u know is locked or unlocked?

I was at first with this ROM and doom kernel~ then i restore my TA then my phone couldnt boot up~ then i flashed the kernel by ihackers it started working again but without the recovery thingy
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] gaboh24:
heres my method:

1st step - unlock my bootloader first running 4.3 firmware.

2nd step - install ihackers kernel.

3rd step - go to recovery, wipe all data then flash the rom.

4th step - boot to system then copy the supersu 1.86.zip, the boot to recovery and flash the zip.

5th step - flash the kernel.tft for c6903 in flashtool.

6th step - boot to system and restore my TA then automatically relock my bootloader after restoring my back-up TA.

7th step - now im fully rooted with lock bootloader.

you can see if your bootloader is locked or unlocked at software info.

to go to your software info type this *#*#7378423*#*#.

then go to service info -> configuration.

you will see there at the bottom if your bootloader is locked , it should look like this "bootloader unlocked allowed: yes".

then if your bootloader is already unlocked it should look like this "bootloader unlocked: yes".

Is there away for me update without downgrading back to 534 on Lb.im running this ihackers at the moment. Thanks
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] iHackers:
As I have mentioned several times before, All you need is a working recovery. That's the very reason behind downgrading to .534. If you have a working recovery on this .290 then you won't even need to wipe your data partition. Simply reboot to recovery, flash the rom and reboot.

Since this rom is called "Pure Stock", shouldn't it be as Stock as possible?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gingerlindsey:
I have an "almost perfect" stock Nandroid build of 4.06.1540.3. Right now, I have not installed any of my own data, except for Contacts and preferences at the Google Play Store. I have also installed a custom recovery (TWRP 2.6.3.3) and rooted the device.

I think my previous backups may have contain corrupted data, as I got multiple error messages when trying to connect to Google and restore contacts. So, I went back to an earlier backup and restored from there. Everything is working now, and I don't want to "screw up"!

What I would like to learn how to do is to make a reliable - i.e. "no corrupted data"- stock backup with a stock recovery so that I may restore it if necessary. Also, would like to be able to take this Nandroid backup and save to a PC so that I can restore from it later.

Please tell me how to do this! Also, will I need to know how to save the file to the computer - as a zip file or as an image file. Right now, I don't know how to do either of those things! TWRP saves the backups as multiple archives rather than as a single zip file or image. Also, which is the preferable method to save the backup as - zip or image file? I would very much like to make this file available to the Developers on this forum as I know that they do not have this particular OTA Nandroid backup posted and I want to help them out! But I think that they would prefer the zip format of the file with the stock recovery.

Please advise! I would be most appreciative, truly!
