yeah but this messes up the whole idea of doing a clean flash without previous programs and possible bugs and errors...
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shteren:
so i've found the solution is anyone is intrested.

all you need to do is copy /data/data/com.sonyericsson.home to a safe location (sdcard)

and after you wipe your device restore the folder to it's original location.

this restores homescreen layouts, widgets locations and sizes and apps shortcuts, i've just tried it :) works greats.

[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] D-eject:
N00b here. I've been searching for locked bootloaders ROMs for my Xperia E and I couldn't find any.

I don't like the "Sony's custom ROM" and I think it's very heavy for a low end Android powered phone.

So, right to the question, can anybody make a non-exaustive list of known locked bootloader ROMS for a XPERIA E C1505 Single?

(Most used or popular)

[More info] When I call the code to go to Service Menu (*#*#7378423#*#*) and then Configuration, it says "Bootloader unlock allowed: No", so if I am not wrong and if I want to turn it to "Yes" I needed to call my carrier to give me some sort of code and pay, that's not an option.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] VividCleric:
For the list of all custom roms and mods please visit this thread http://xdaforums.com/xperia-j-e/general/xperia-e-official-thread-roms-mods-root-t2535522 . There are no custom roms as for now developed for the xperia E with locked bootloader as the developers are very less and busy developing cm11. Till now there is no news for any such development for our phones. :D
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Grimlock007:
No locked bootloader roms........

BUT......

you could flash ICS ftf on locked bootloader....its meant for dual but works perfectly on single too..and ICS is not at all heavy like JB...phone becomes a lot snappier

Hey all

So basically I'm on revolution kit kat stock ROM and I have twrp recovery therefore root worked well

REGARDLESS to the fact that I can't use supersu to give permissions in my native non-english language

When I restart it works but a minute later root dies

[Galaxy Note 3 General] mattish.91:
This was basically the best way to root my device and i had a hard time to find any good thread about it, so this will probably work for any Note 3.

You do this on your own risk! I Don't take any responsibility for bricking your device nor world war!​

Downloads:

Kingo root: [Link]

Device drivers: [Link]

1. Install drivers

2. Follow this video: [Link]

When done this is what you get:

Root: Enabled (SuperSU)

Recovery: CWM 6.0.4.5

HIT THANKS BUTTON BELOW IF THIS HELPED!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] celderic:
I would not use kingo to root my device after seeing many people saying it is not safe.

I'm also certain this method you have described doesnt give you a custom recovery, as you have stated that it does. This would defeat the whole purpose, as your knox would be 0x1 after a custom recovery is on the device.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] thedawg03:
kingo and some other root program was said not to be safe because they it ask some permission so XDA did not approve of it but from what i read XDA now says its ok and i think they even change it on there next update so XDA would recomment it( at least not banned it )
[Galaxy Note 3 General] kacrutzz:
is it save to root with kingo now ?? i would like to use it if kingo not considered as malware
[Galaxy Note 3 General] darkworldz:
This would still trip knox If I am not wrong..

So I guess CF-root would be a better way..
[Galaxy Note 3 General] sabriptm:
using the usual way, odin cwm.. yeahh it triggered knox, but never mind
[Galaxy Note 3 General] xclub_101:
Kingo is not considered safe since:

1) you have to download and run an EXE on your PC

2) that EXE will download "things" from the internet

3) those things from the internet have TOTAL control over your phone

4) the "things" from the internet might not be the same for every type of phone/firmware; in that scenario it is very easy to have 10% of the people "injected" with some form of long-term security backdoor which can be (much) later used.

I am not saying that Kingo does step 4 above, but it could be doing it and there would be no way for people to know it until it is too late.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] mattish.91:
well...

i rooted my device using kingo without problems, no knox triggered or anything, and i got root and cwm recovery installed aswell, right after that i did a nandroid, wiped everything that has to do with TW and tripped knox by installing CM, the best thing i have done so far, faster, more stable with custom dpi and much more familiar since i always have been using cm on all my devices ^^

Why would someone want to inject an "advanced" user's device? Since most users are flashing updates, wiping all the time it's not worth injecting such a device, i guess most people don't save important stuff on ther devices if they are re-flashing all the time, atleast im re-flashing all the time anyways xD
[Galaxy Note 3 General] najoor:
kingo and knox

1- rooting note 3 on Android 4.3 with kingo does not trip knox. I don't know if there is a way to root the 4.4 update.

2- while no one knows exactly what information kingo sends from your computer to the Internet while your phone is being rooted, and you can be very suspicious of that step, AFTER your phone is rooted I can say with 99% confidence that there is no malicious software implanted in your phone by it.

3- after you root your phone, if you do anything that affects the bootloader, including installing a custom rom like cyanogenmod or custom recovery like cwm, you WILL trip knox.

4- in the absence of that possibility, the best you can do is to install safestrap (look it up) on your rooted phone.

Sometimes it helps to clear the data of Play, delete your Google account and reboot. Then select Play, type in your gmail adress and try if your issue is solved. Also look in Playstore on the pc in playstore/settings if your device is listed as active and unselect other possible active devices.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prairie-dad:
Hi all,

just got a Nexus 5, 16 gig, and it seems lovely. All set up to unlock/root this beauty, but there's a problem. My last device, an HTC Desire Z (or vision, if you prefer, or T-Mo G2 with Google!) had very, very few choices by the end. Yeah, there were lots of GB choices, and there's actually one on there now, for my Luddite, first smartphone-owning wife, but by ICS/JB, never mind KK, the choices were few. I have used and loved AOSP and CM based ROMs, I'm not biased, but with the N5 it's so much harder...many users, many choices. And all the kernels!

So, can anyone clarify things for me a little? Franco's kernel seems to be the most popular, based on the over 500k views of the thread, but it doesn't work with CM ROMs right now. Is that a reason to avoid it, popularity notwithstanding? Is there another kernel alternative that does work with CM ROMs? Or is there an AOSP ROM that's so good, I can keep with the Francisco's kernel...and if so, what is it?

I am not after performance...I'm after stability, low resource usage, no bloatware...stuff like that there...

many thanks to all,

p-d

Also...what about camera performance improvements...any pointers?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
popular doesnt equal best, and popular is usually not best. anyways, you have to try out different kernels/roms to find your best, as those kinds of threads arent allowed on xda http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/help/best-rom-kernel-threads-t2477889

We don't like to compare development here on XDA, it has a tendency to offend some developers.
