yes that's right but how to uninstall and reinstall recovery very noob with Sony I come from the Razr and Galaxy s2
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] chauhanjayc:
Make Backup first

Delete the following files:

/system/bin/recovery.twrp.cpio.lzma (or .tar)

/system/bin/recovery.cwm.cpio.lzma (or .tar)

/system/bin/recovery.philz.cpio.lzma

/system/bin/charger

/system/bin/dualrecovery.sh

/system/bin/mr

Rename /system/bin/mr.stock to /system/bin/mr to restore stock functionality, then inside /system/bin/ rename chargemon.stock to chargemon check its permissions (should be 755 or otherwise visible as -rwxr-x-r-x). Done!

Hi chauhanjayc

need your help again. In the middle of the process, easyroot didn't work. I tried a few times but didn't work.

I flashed back 4.4.3 and I can on the phone, but not rooted. Please kindly assist. Thanks.
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] jychow74:
By the way, USB debugging and 3rd party app install option are both turned on.
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] chauhanjayc:
i think you have forget to enable usb debugging mode before flashing 4.4.2 kenral

if you havent then you pc is missing flash drivers

go to C:\Flashtool\drivers and install driver

make sure it should be installed no error should come
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] chauhanjayc:
tell me the process you followed i think you are missing some steps
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] jychow74:
Thanks for your reply.

I have followed all the steps diligently. I am stuck at easyroot. It says connect device. But this is the step that never get continued.

I managed to flashed 4.4.2 and 4.4.3 kernel. In fact, I am getting a hang of it now :)

Is there any specific steps for easyroot?
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] wouldxx:
I did it and now it is so with the Sony logo and vibrates with green LED flashing
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] chauhanjayc:
its a auto script all you need is 4.4.2 kernal and usb debugging mode enabled

thats it

ok one more thing you can do is as soon as you connect the phone i think pc companion is opening or might be opened in back ground close it first and then open easy root tool
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] chauhanjayc:
ok we are good to go now flash ftf 4.4.3

and then follow root and recovery process
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] wouldxx:
ok I will do that now
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] chauhanjayc:
report back if you face any other challenge
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] wouldxx:
I just need the kernel or the whole rom
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] chauhanjayc:
no whole ftf

as you have deleted massed up file and we need stock or original files

so to have you phone in stock mode flash whole ftf and then

do clean root and recovery
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] piku2008:

problem solved reinstalled recovery and ran busybox

the problem phone keeps restarting when I put the charger continues
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] jychow74:
Thanks chauhanjayc, for your effort to assist.

I found out the problem. When I connected, the link is not "authorized". I connected the phone (on 4.4.3, with display visible), and tried Easyroot. Then I found the problem. I "authorized" the connection. And then went through your steps, and it works.

Thanks again for your effort. I salute you! :)
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] amirfoad:
Dear chauhanjayc.

Thank You so much for your complete explanations.

I've done that and my phone is rooted.

BUT when I want to update my SuperSu, it fails!

And when I want to access to my system folders by other programs, they said that your phone is rooted but can't grant RW permission on /system folder.

What should I do?!
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] chauhanjayc:
its easy first try and reroot your phone using easy root tool in current condition

if that works then its great

if not then reflesh 4.4.2 reroot and this time run easy root tool scrip two times

now reflash 4.4.3

should be done after this
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] amirfoad:
Thanks for reply.

I tried both ways!

rerooting by easy tool in normal condition fails.

It fails and freezes in "creating vm <loljavasucks>" step.

But in reflashing 4.4.2 it finishes the rooting proccess.

I did it twice....

BUT the problem still exists! :)
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] chauhanjayc:
Have u tried two times tool kit script after flashing 4.4.2 kenral in blank screen conditions
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] amirfoad:
yes.

I did.
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] chauhanjayc:
ok

can do a clean install of 4.4.3(wipe data after backup)

then root

this must fix

plz plz plz follow all my steps carefully

each lines are important
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] amirfoad:
Thank you so much!

I prefer not to do a clean install...

Because of my large number of programs and customizations and...

I did all of your instructions word to word!

even a cup a coffee! :))

I swear to God! :))
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] chauhanjayc:
And have u got it working?
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] amirfoad:
No unfortunately!

As I said my phone is rooted but no write permission in system folder!

Using windows 7and already did that . No usb debugging still. I'm thinking about you reinstalling windows and downloading flashtool again.. That might make a difference...
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] kiran kumar k:
After doing so connect u r phone once whether u can transfer data viceversa... If not reinstall drivers from official Sony site

Then download flashtool and install drivers from it too

Nothing so different when u reinstall windows.

Chauhanjayc explained the whole thing well....try it so nd get root... Njy

If yu have enabled us usbdebugging and connected in switch on condition it must show on.....

Even my friend had this kind of error,he reinstalled flashtool and works fine without any ambiguity...
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] m4ng:

Easiest way to root on unlocked bootloader

Connect phone to pc and enable usb debugging

Go into flashtool and under my D530X go into root

and select towelroot

Thats it:D
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] DJ_ZX:
Hi Ashwin - does this root method works for T2 Dual?

For me Towelroot says "not supported device"

If u have single sim then this won't work
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] bolatfkz:
it is dual t2
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] chauhanjayc:
so do clean install

first flash latest FTF

then root using my method
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] bolatfkz:
easy root does not work on my phone.

easy root is waiting for phone connection
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] chauhanjayc:
means you havent have driver installed

follow the step which told in step by step guide in op
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] bolatfkz:
Finally I could root the phone.

Trick was that I had to allow easy root on the phone.

But when the screen is black on 4.4.2 flash, you can't allow easyroot.

I had to run easyroot on 4.4.3 flash, then tick always allow (or something like that)!!!

Then rooted according to instruction on the first page.\

Thanks for your help.

After root, phone has problem with playing music.

While musing playing, music suddenly stops to play, the button of the play icon shows that music is playing, then i have to tap twice on the icon, the music begins to play, but not from the stopped place. Music may stop after any playing time, try on different players, no matter from sd card or inside storage is playing, tried reset, nothing helps!

have you authorised USB debugging in 4.4.3

to do so you need to first turn on phone and then enable usb debugging in phone

open flash tool

connect phone check phone screen you will get a notification of authorising

give it and then try my method
[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] rrd84:
Phone turned ON..

USB debugging enabled..

flashtool opened..

phone connected..

Flashtool detected my device..

no Authorize USB Debugging message or anything else..

the Authorize USB Debugging thing appeared only when I have connected my device to PC,

for 1st use of Mobogenie..

Sorry to ask some silly question
