[Sony Xperia ZR] sling-shot:
Is there any particular reason due to which you do not want to root? Because rooting is currently the only way to get usable space in a ZR unless you really really have very few applications and nearly no content on your phone memory.

The things that eat up your phone memory almost invisibly are:

1. DEX files of applications - both user installed and system. Even disabled system applications although do not take memory in the name of updates still have their DEX files lying around. Your Chrome is one big culprit. All the unnecessary Google applications next important ones followed by Sony useless applications.

2. Updates to system applications - these end up being a lot, particularly if you have not disabled any of the default system ones.

3. Thumbnails of the media you carry on your device - even if the media is on SD card, its thumbnail resides in the phone memory taking up space. Note : Do not believe the GBs space used by thumbnails as shown by cleaning applications because that is not the real space used. It is less than that but more than zero.

4. WhatsApp database backups - if you are a heavy WhatsApp user, the six redundant copies of database backups can easily cross 500 MB.

Things that eat up visibly are:

1. Downloads - usually stored on the phone's internal memory by default.

2. Bluetooth transfers - usually stored on the phone's internal memory.

3. WhatsApp media - get stored on the internal memory. Can run into multiple gigabytes for a heavy user.

The second category items can easily be handled without rooting but with just a file manager.

WhatsApp database backups too can be deleted regularly.

Disabling unneeded system applications will also free up a lot of memory.

If these are not enough, you seriously need to root to go any further.

Hello

I lost 12 hours today to root my device using this guide but, after succesfully unlocking the bootloader:

- rooted by donwgrading to 283->230

- installed the dual recovery

- created that Pre-Rooted Flashable Firmware For 10.7.A.0.222 FTF using PRF creator (I'm not very sure that I have used the stock build - couldn't find one at that time)

- flashed in recovery with some errors the build

- bootloop in restart

- flashed a boot.img from the cyanogen thread (I'm not sure it's ok but stopped that bootloop)

- restarted again the process from the flashing 230 step - but I'm stuck here with that blue screen - when the device is trying to start for the first time in 230

I'm lost in all of these threads and I need a valid link to the stock 10.7.A.0.222 FTF to retry to create the zip using PRF and probably a more reliable boot.img (link please)

Thank you

UPDATE: I can get in recovery mode and I tried to do a factory reset and restart but still can't get out of that starting screen. I don't have a stock.tft on SD. What should I do?

Unlocking Bootloader

Can someone please explain the process step by step for unlocking bootloader. I have read a few posts about this and I have to say I still don't understand. I have C5502 with stock rom 5.1.1 and obviously LB. also have already rooted the phone and have dual recovery

Also I apologize in advance as I realize this might be asked a lot
[Sony Xperia ZR] LaudaDev:
I have flashed 10.5.1.A.0.283 (4.4.4) version and rooted it fine with EasyRoot, installed recovery, ect.

However I wasn't aware that .283 is not the latest version for 4.4.4 and now Update Center is offering me 10.5.1.A.0.292 update.

Is it recommended to update and will I lose root? Should I just uninstall update center?

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia ZR] enfilade:
Actually the latest version is 10.7.A.0.222.

You should use PRFCreator (http://xdaforums.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/tool-prfcreator-easily-create-pre-t2859904) to create pre-rooted firmware for the latest version and flash it via recovery.

EDIT: Oh, you meant latest version for 4.4.4

You could do that also with PRFCreator
[Sony Xperia ZR] LaudaDev:
Yeah. I downgraded recently to 4.4.4 due to "mobile radio active" bug annoying me.

Well, I'm currently on 10.5.1.A

0.283 and I'm wondering if updating to 0.292 via OTA will break root?

If it breaks it, I'll just skip it because it's minor update anyway.
[Sony Xperia ZR] enfilade:
It would most probably fail via OTA. To update, you would need to flash the firmware.

Besides, there is a solution for mobile radio active bug via xposed framework which works for Lollipop. Check this: http://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/xposed-mobileradioactivefix-t3189393
[Sony Xperia ZR] LaudaDev:
That xposed fix requires unlocked bootloader and as a lot of people say, it doesn't fix the real problem it just masks it. I'll stay on stable 4.4.4 until a real fix pops up or some stable 6.0 custom rom.

Thanks for the help.

i bought xperia zr c5503 few years ago with 3g simcard. I have customized my device several times. In this year i migrate my 3g simcard to 4g simcard, and the problem is my phone cant find 4g network. i have enable LTE network on mobile network setting. And i check working band of my phone (c5503) on service menu - configuration setting, it show gsm, umts and hspa only, and NO LTE band. I try 3rd application to change my mobile network band on LTE only but not working. I check my IMEI number on imei.info, and it show no LTE support for my C5503. Its make me confuse, so far i know my c5503 is support for 4g network (information on sony web, gsmarena, and other source), but when i check it self its doesnt support 4g network. Please somebody explain it, maybe your c5503 on your country can connect to 4g network, btw my country is Indonesia.

sorry for my bad english.

I think there are different bands. Check if your network band and supported bands match.
[Sony Xperia ZR] LaudaDev:
If you have C5502 and you flash C5503 rom it won't work. You won't have LTE by doing that...
[Sony Xperia ZR] neildalal:
Are you sure your device is C5503 and not C5502? Check your box

If it is C5503, try any of these, might work

1) Go to settings > more > download Internet and mms settings

2) Check on the Sony website that if the supported bands for C5503 match with your carriers band

3) Ensure lte is enabled in your sim and in settings > more > mobile networks > preferred network type

Recovery for Locked Bootloader

Hey everyone.

I'm running stock rom 5.1.1 and have rooted it already.

My phone still has a locked bootloader.

I tried looking but couldn't find a way to install a recovery without unlocking my bootloader.

Any suggestions.?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia ZR] neildalal:
Got to nuts dual recovery website (you can Google it...) and download the latest twrp installer zip. Put it on pc, extract it and connect your phone to pc with USB debugging on and run the bat file and follow instructions.

Make sure you download the twrp 2.8.22 or above
[Sony Xperia ZR] Aniruddha10:
Yea, I already looked at that one. It said something about an unlocked bootloader so I didn't use it.

If you say it will work on a locked bootloader I'll try then. Thanks :)

This is the one right?

http://nut.xperia-files.com/path/XZDualRecovery
[Sony Xperia ZR] neildalal:
Yes download and use the XZRLOCKEDDUALRECOVERY.zip
[Sony Xperia ZR] Aniruddha10:
My device is connecting. I'm pretty sure I have the drivers.

Does my phone have to be in mtp or msc mode when I connect?

And does USB Debugging have to be on?
[Sony Xperia ZR] neildalal:
Yes USB debugging need to be on and you will get a prompt on your phone to allow USB debugging.

It should be in mtp mode but I dont think that matters much...

Press thumbs up if it helps ;)

Hey there

does anyone else facing speaker issue in stock 5.1.1 and cm11 ?

my speaker does not work in 5.1.1 but works without any issue in cm10.2 and stock 4.1.2 ( and i think it was working in 5.0.2 too )

When i was using 5.1.1 i found that it always thinks that there is headphone connected and thus does not turn main speaker on. I also tried by removing headphone jack assembly but it was still thinking that headphone jack is in.
[Sony Xperia ZR] bogdan2011:
Greetings,

I have a strange problem with my ZR.

After flashing CM12 from CWM (as stated in the wiki), the recovery seems to have been overwritten. If I press the volume buttons when the pink light appears, the phone reboots and gets stuck in a bootloop.

If I flash the boot.img again, CM doesn't boot anymore (I get a blank screen and then it reboots back into recovery).

How can I have both CM and a working recovery, as I do on my Nexus devices?

No its impossible to get it on our XZR as our touchboard doesn't support it.

You can check and try the advanced stock kernel thread page3 for our XZR where [MENTION=4675598]shoey63[/MENTION] has tried to implement it but doesn't work. Many other devs have also tried but it doesnt work. Strangely it works fine on the XZ and XZL
[Sony Xperia ZR] Aciong.Aksaya:
Thanks for responding mate.

Have you tried flashing Customized Sony Rom? Or Existenze? I'm a bout to dload and flash one can you atleast suggest me which is which?
[Sony Xperia ZR] neildalal:
Yea I have tried both of them and am currently on existenz.

The customized rom is fast and smooth. You can use Xposed and other theming apps with this rom without any freezes. But the port for our XZR doesn't have a recovery (even trying to install one will cause bootloops) It will get updates in the future.

The Existence rom speed is same as stock Sony rom but will provide lots of customizations inbuilt. But some Xposed and other theming apps may cause freeze so you will have to try every xposed app. It has a recovery built in. It will not get updates in the future, its the final version

I'm about to flash a Existenze ROM coming from stock 5.1.1. What do i need ot do before flashing? I've read about TA/DRM partitions need to be backed up. how? Any other files need to do?
[Sony Xperia ZR] neildalal:
You just need to take a nandroid backup from your recovery before flashing. It contains each and every file of your phone, its like a photocopy of current state of your phone. If anything goes wrong you can restore it anytime
[Sony Xperia ZR] Aciong.Aksaya:
I dont have much space in my mmc mate to retain sa back up image. if anything goes wrong I can easily tap on PC Companion right?
[Sony Xperia ZR] neildalal:
No, sometimes it may happen that your phone might not boot only(if anything goes wrong) and it may not be detected by your PC.

Besides you should have atleast one nandroid backup as it contains your DRM keys which are unique for your phone. If ever you unlock your bootloader the keys will be lost forever so its important to take a nandroid backup... You can back it on your SD card.

Or if you are not going to unlock your bootloader, then you can download flashtool for your pc and a firmwares ftf file which you can flash if anything goes wrong and even if your phone doesn't boot...
[Sony Xperia ZR] Aciong.Aksaya:
For now I don't have a plan to unlock BL.

So no need to worry about DRM keys as long as there is PC Companion and Flashtool. I'm I right?
[Sony Xperia ZR] neildalal:
Yes then its fine, if your apps and data is not that important as flashtool may wipe your data. Or you can use titanium backup.
[Sony Xperia ZR] Aciong.Aksaya:

No mate.. The main difference between 5503 and 5502 is language files.. (5503 is the european or western model and 5502 is the eastern or asian model) Battery life is always related to how many apps you have installed (running in the background) and how you use your phone which is as unique as our fingerprints really..

Connect phone to both PC and mouse via OTG at the same time

Hi,

I recently dropped my phone and my screen cracked so now I'm using a mouse connected via USB OTG to access my phone. I'm also trying to back up files using Helium backup but there's a part there were I need to authorize my PC's RSA key by pressing okay on the phone's screen but I can't do that since the phone is currently connected to the PC. There is only one micro usb slot so it's just either the connection to the PC or the mouse.

Is there a way to connect both to the phone? Please help.

I assume you are rooted. But is your bootloader unlocked? Probably not.

As you are planning to install official Sony KitKat rom, you are unlikely to need to flash DRM.
