Hey guys,

I'm trying to install lollipop on my Telstra Z3, never had an android or done this before. Decided I'll try root it in the process.

I used FlashTool to install D6653_23.0.A.2.93_Customized_20IN.ftf, now I'm trying to run giefroot v3 and i'm stuck.

This is what I'm seeing:

Running exploit
Make sure you have enabled "Allow mock locations"

Please wait for the device to reboot

The phone never reboots, it just sits there on a black screen, which I think is the app I saw appear called "CVE-2014-7911".

Any tips at all as to what I may have done wrong?

If I let Sony Bridge for mac take over it wants to install Lollipop, but I'd like to get root working first.

I've tried to go straight to T2U-lockeddualrecovery2.8.12-RELEASE.installer.zip but I can't get any option in there to work.

---------- Post added at 06:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:40 AM ----------

This is what I screwed up, I somehow missed this instruction. Enabled mock locations and now rooting worked!

Time to get lollipop on there now :)
[Xperia Z3 General] msmith6i:
Worked perfectly on my Telstra 4G Z3, Thanks.
[Xperia Z3 General] xelfer83:
I finally got lollipop on here and i have no mobile data at all.

Any ideas what might cause this? I used the indian 23.0.A.2.93 which I found on http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=10879507 - would that cause it? I followed every other instruction directly and can't figure out what I've done to have this happen :/

Edit: I found out I had no APN settings set up whatsoever. I feel this should be mentioned in tutorials somewhere. I got the info from here and it started working: https://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au...a-APN-setting-for-my-mobile-phone/ta-p/211349

Anyone one else having issue with video play back after updating using the Lollipop Generic version??
[Xperia Z3 General] nic85:
all good here, what kind of problem with video play?
[Xperia Z3 General] hinrg:
youtube or even video's in facebook will not play just says click to retry ... reboot fixes the problem for a little bit but always comes back!

Seems as the same problem as the nexus 7 users on lollipop 5.0 have tried clearing cache disable nuplay but no luck.
[Xperia Z3 General] nic85:
hard reset or re download the rom

Hey guys just wondering if you would still suggest this device in 2015?

I had a S5 with the same 801 chipset, (borrowed the device) and it seemed fast enough and fine.

I upgraded my plan to a Note 4, and while i love the camera, thats really all i love about it.

The device feels too big.

How is the camera and battery life on this device still?

Looking to pair my phone with a moto 360 as well.

Also looking for a phone that will still get updates for another 1-2 years

Would love to hear some peoples reviews.
[Xperia Z3 General] lu99ke:
Hi,

I personally love this device and would still recommend it. Really, with its RAM and processor, I think it will be fine! Sony's firmware is not bloated and it is really zippy. I plan to have it a couple of years.

Battery is outstanding....design is great - although that is a subjective thing.

The one thing that it falls behind on, in my opinion, is camera. In full manual mode and with tweaking it can be great...but in auto, for repeatable results, iPhone 6 destroys it....(wife has iPhone 6) and from what I understand S6 and G4 out gun the iPhone6.

Perhaps go for Z4? Or wait until end of year when z5 may come out... One of the things Z4 brought which is great is uncovered charging port... I use a magnetic charger but when forced to, the covered USB port is a bit fiddly.

But ultimately I am not disappointed with the Z3... I think it is a great device.
[Xperia Z3 General] Urimagination:
Thanks for your reply

I assume i need to make sure i get model D6653?

I want to make sure it has band 7 and band 40

Is this the Australian model?
[Xperia Z3 General] m2geek:
Hell yea - its a great phone!

I got 6 hours screen on time with mine today walking around Adelaide taking photos and chatting to friends all day (with 4G on)
[Xperia Z3 General] Urimagination:
Hey guys managed to sell my Note 4 and grabbed a second hand Z3

I just want to check the model with you and make sure its the correct one.

its a D6653 (is this the correct version to have? im with Optus and want to make sure)

I notice some vodaphone stuff on it.

Where is the best way to learn how to make it stock AU? Do i need to flash it?

I dont want to root the device just make it stock AU

Also will it trip anything? I got it second hand and have a 48 hour change of mind policy

Also comes with 12 month warrenty
[Xperia Z3 General] Urimagination:
Hey guys is the D6653 the Australian model?

Also my device is showing 3G± is this H+

Also I used the auto APS settings, and I feel my signal is weak.

If someone can respond asap that would be great
[Xperia Z3 General] infra4800:
Yes D6653 is Australian model, I got it via Virgin on plan.

I do get 4G as vigrin works on Optus network and has 4G, but yes also do see 3G+ or 3G when 4G is not availble
[Xperia Z3 General] lu99ke:
Hey

Yup 6653 is the Asia Pac version.... And its LTE uses all the aus bands..

Note - only Telstra and Optus have network aggregation ( telstra brands it as 4Gx and optus something else)... But for normal 4g that is the right model.

The vodafone stuff just means you have a vodafone branded rom..... Use flash tool to download and install the generic au FW and it will get rid of it for you.

Pm me if you need help doing that but it's pretty straightforward if you are ok with computers..

I have gotten over 100mbs download on Telstra....
[Xperia Z3 General] DuckDodger70:
have seen all 3 on mine. have seen 4G, 3G and H+ in some rare cases.

Also im on Telstra as well and internet speeds always in the 60-70mbit mark
[Xperia Z3 General] heywheelie:
hi,

I got a D6653 Z3 as a replacement for a faulty Z3C. It's not locked to a carrier but it does have StarHub software on it so I assume it's a new Singapore phone with StarHub firmware. It has the very latest firmware 23.2.A.1.62

I notice that the latest australia firmware is only 23.1.A.1.28

Sorry for the long winded background but here's what I would like to know:

Assuming both australia and singapore firmwares were the same version, would they both work the same in Australia? I'm with Optus, so would the modem in both firmwares be the same? Would it be safe to flash australia customised firmware on a singapore Z3 phone?

thanks
[Xperia Z3 General] lu99ke:
If your model says d6653 it will be fine. You can use the optus one if you like but the generic aus one will work... I am on Telstra and use the generic aus one.

The modems are the same....
[Xperia Z3 General] xela-yuki6:
Which is the Generic AU FW? Can you point me in the right direction for that? Is it just the global one from here: http://xdaforums.com/z3/general/ftf-stock-firmwares-xperia-z3-models-t2886061

Also is it possible to do a backup of the Vodafone ROM in case of any warranty issues?
[Xperia Z3 General] lu99ke:
Directions to download and install stock FW using flashtool here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=60146534

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE USB DEBUGGING ACTIVATED THROUGH DEVELOPER OPTIONS IN YOUR PHONES SETTINGS BEFORE YOU START

The latest Vodafone FW will always be available for download through flashtool so you don't need to back up the ROM for warranty .... If you want to go back to stock Vodafone... Just follow above instructions but select the Vodafone au FW rather than generic.

Cheers
[Xperia Z3 General] heywheelie:
Xperifirm only lists the latest available firmware unfortunately. I am after stock kitkat ftf Generic AU 23.0.1.A.5.77. Does anyone have it available for download please?

cheers
[Xperia Z3 General] Pumpino:
I've got a D5563 that was originally purchased through Kogan. I flashed some custom ROMs and now I want to return it to stock.

I used Xperifirm to install the Customised AU firmware, however this firmware does not include "None" in the Security lock screen section. I don't want to have to slide every time I double tap to wake.

Therefore, I installed the Customised HK firmware. That has the "None" option, but when in the User menu, some of the text is in another language, despite the language being set to Australian English. I then tried the Customised TW firmware, and experienced the same issue.

I have no idea what region the original firmware was, but it certainly didn't have either of the above issues (I wish I'd left it the way it was).

EDIT: The Indian version has resolved both issues.
[Xperia Z3 General] lu99ke:
You still have to swipe up on waking the screen don't you?? Or do you wake the screen directly into your home screen?

Sent via carrier pigeon.
[Xperia Z3 General] Pumpino:
Nah, having it set to none means that double tapping takes you straight to the home screen. No swipe required.
[Xperia Z3 General] lu99ke:
ha! i never knew that was an option! Learn something new every day..:D
[Xperia Z3 General] darkguset:
The one I got from Kogan had the Singapore firmware on (English)
[Xperia Z3 General] Pumpino:
How did you determine that it was Singapore firmware?
[Xperia Z3 General] darkguset:
From the apps that were pre-installed. The most obvious one: SingTel (Singapore Telephone Company). There were others too, all refering to Singapore apps/telephony, services etc.
[Xperia Z3 General] jasestu:
Just sharing a wee story of disappointing customer care from Sony Australia.

The Xperia Z3 Compact had me very excited. So excited that I pre-ordered weeks in advance from Sony.com.au.

First mistake. When I did eventually get my phone it was weeks after I could have walked into a reputable big box retail store an pick one up. Oh well, nevermind, I'm mostly over that now.

So recently I noticed that the back panel of the phone had started to lift ever so slightly (barely visible, but I could hear it creaking). I confirmed that the much touted IP rating was compromised by doing the leak pressure test.

Given that the phone was still within warranty period I figured I may as well have them replace the back. I contacted Sony who unceremoniously threw me over to fonebiz. Fair enough, that's business.

Takes over a week without my phone before I get a report back from fonebiz. To replace the slightly lifting back plate we need to give you a refurbished PCB. That's out of warranty because the phone is damaged so we'll need $340 thanks.

Fantastic, so now I'm out of pocket $60 for sending my phone to them and without repair.

I'm confident I wouldn't be in this situation if I was dealing with the warranty via the likes of JB Hifi for Harvey Norman. So if you are getting hyped about any of the Z5 phones, consider where you buy it from. Even better, abandon Sony altogether.
[Xperia Z3 General] pptt:
Got a similar problem (back plate lifting slightly) on my z3. Rather than going the warranty path, ended up just making a mental note not to dunk it in water ever again

my galaxy tab 2 10.1 is currently running 4.1.2 JB. it says your device is out of date. but, i can't update it because its rooted and cwm recovery is installed. whenever i click on check for updates it says your device has been modified,updates are not available. i tried through kies too,it also says that updates aren't supported.what should i do?

Yeah, you can't download official OTA updates with a custom recovery. If you want updates from Samsung you need to relock the bootloader and go back to stock recovery.

[Xolo Q3000] avi3230:
Yes I know this issue and already mentioned it here.

I never faced such issue so i dont know the exact workout.

so u on KK base rom.

u flashed philz recovery (please confirm only recovery or uboot and boot.img provided with it)

then u backed up ur kk rom.

wipe data, format system

flash miui rom

booted but no camera working.

Have u tried flashing the uboot given in above post. (JB uboot)

I am asking u whole procedure cause if i want to find a definite solution i need to know what things are lacking.

i hope u got my point.

I read somewhere that uboot.bin is the file responsible for camera working when rom switchs.

So my request to u is try flashing first JB uboot.zip from recovery and then flash MIUI rom and try for camera.

If not working then try flashing uboot.bin given with philz recovery.

I know its not easy to try but i cant do it as i dont get this issue.

Otherwise u need to flash the whole KK rom from flash tools and then recovery flashing and then JB rom flashing (as i explained in post of JB & KK rom switching)

Thank U.
