I'm having problems with Link2SD. Everytime I try to recreate mount scripts it simply states: "Mount script error Mount script cannot be created. mount: Operation not permitted". I've unticked the "mount name seperation" box from SuperSU, made sure that Link2SD has the appropriate rights in SuperSU, reinstalled the app and rebooted the system to no avail. Other apps requiring root such as FolderMount work just fine. Any ideas?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] adamsmth663:
im also getting bootloops

first i thought it was due to xposed framework but now it seems after 4-5 reboots the bootloops coem up for some reason even without xposed
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] 3f1f37:
Flashed this earlier, coming EXISTENCE 4.5 using stock recovery and kernel on LB.

I flashed the ROM then the SuperSU zip and I have full working root on all root apps.

I'm not one to play around with writing apps to system so I can comment on that.

Only thing missing is recovery, otherwise everything is working.

Flash Rom from latest stock JB and Nuts recovery. Everything seems ok And rooted. No battery drain either. issue with xposed and bluetooth headphones. Im using sbh52. keep losing audio even if the the device shows connected on both headset and phone.

So far, everything is stable.. Great job.. Thnx

Hi,

Please share how you got v4a to work. :confused:

I get driver install error. Cannot work on the version of Busybox installed. Can also confirm that updating Busybox breaks root.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] imam88:

use selinux to change to permissive

install busybox

install V4A like install normal apk

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] @soka:
Thank you buddy, :good:

Do you still have R/W permissions after updating busybox? If so, what version of Busybox are you using.

I tried V28 pro and broke root, :eek:

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] chawlasrijan:
Link not working, please fix, thanks:)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] gamer649:
It will be for unlocked bootloader as it is a stock kernel WITH recovery, making it an edited stock which will only be for unlocked bootloader.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] yuskhayru:
Since its for unlock bootloader, u should put something like this #only for unlocked bootloader.

Also root and R/W on system partition works perfectly with this kernel.

Hello everyone !

I can confirm full root + exposed. I can still use spotify in peace with no shuffle. That's all I needed. No recovery though, even after flashing it after the rom in recovery. If you have lb do not try to flash the recovery from windows it goes into boot loop and you have to go all the way down to 4.4.2. + recovery and start again
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] ravdo:
I've re-installed dual recovery 2.8.3 from windows (choosed option 1), no bootloop for me, and it fixed the mount R/W problem :rolleyes:

Edit: I don't have xposed, though :o
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] eduard.caliman:
do you have locked bootloader?

for exposed you need to flash the zip in recovery when installing the rom and then the apk after. it should work
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] VinBenzin810:
Where i find the Boot.Img? From Stock lollipop Rom
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] ravdo:
Yes, I have LB.

I don't need exposed ^^
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Langdang02:
Could you use gravity and other mods without bootlop?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] VinBenzin810:
Yes can you i used gravity Box lp now and no Problems
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Rajeev:
Strange.. I have re installed 2.8.3 several times but still i can't mount system as R/O in root explorer. When i click on R/W its not changing.. But root access allowed.. Hell.. Trying from 3 days....
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] iArvee:
How do you install the dualrecovery kernel without recovery? Just get the boot.img inside the zip and flash via fastboot?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Rajeev:
There is a Windows installer mate.. I am in a locked bootloader...
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] niaboc79:
Follow detailled instructions and root advices. See op ;)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Rajeev:
Thanks but i have already tried that.. Not working. I can get root access but can't click on R/W to change R/O. I just want to remove some bloatwares using root explorer. Thats all.. :confused:

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] 3f1f37:
I dont use any apps that write to the system but titanium backup is the only root app that I am using at the moment as I dont have recovery to flash xposed.

Titanium backup has worked since I flashed and I've also back up apps to test, all in working for me.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] westernmg:
As long as you have an unlocked bootloader every kernel should work.;)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] RJASSI21:
Would this work if I restore my 4.4.4 backup then do it?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] blackhawk_LA:
What does it mean to "not use titanium backup"? Is it somehow causing issues, or it's just not recommended to restore previous data?

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] _mysiak_:
I have root, system as R/W, but /system reports 0mb free for some apps (Link2SD, SystemCleaner, ..). Though I am able to delete files with these applications from system partition (still leaving 0mb free). I was able to integrate few system apps and then it suddenly stopped working. Reboot doesn't help. Any idea how to solve this? I need to integrate updates to be able to install another updates, stupid google play says "not enough free space" while having more than 500mb free on data partition.

Edit: my bad, there was really no free space on system, it was stretched out to maximum usage. Once I removed some useless stuff and converted few system apps to user app, it is better :)
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] botanicfts:
I do not know my way is through pure .314
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] RJASSI21:

Hey Guys,

i only need a quick help from you.

I'm not so sure about the handling of the XPeria. I own a Oneplus One and before i had a Samsung so it seems pure different.

My Wife has a Z2 and would like to update to Lollipop. She only has her Phone rooted and a custom Recovery (i found myself a good instruction for that some time ago). She is now on 4.4.4. So if i go through your Instruction is it safe or can something go wrong? I mean. She only needs pure Stock Lollipop rooted. She uses Titanium Backup to Backup her Apps for Work and some Messanger Stuff.

What about the Recovery? When it works in some time can it be flashed as a single part later?

I would appreciate your help. Thanks in advance

Bieka
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] nreuge:
No recovery for the moment. And users experience many problem just about root.

So, my strong advice: wait!!!
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] samuraix21:
I agree, there seems to be a number of problems with this stock build of Lollipop.

If you want root and recovery, just wait. If you really don't care much about that, you can just flash the ftf file that's floating around the forums using some software, Flashtool I think it's called.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Die Bruine:
Dirty Flash

I uninstalled ES Explorer and Xposed just to be sure. Rebooted into TWRP. Wiped dalvik and dirty flashed. After dirty flash wiped dalvik again. Rebooted and everything seems to work. After reboot installed ES explorer. That also works. But it crashes when I go into settings. I can live with that for now.

I ran Folder Mount and let it run the script it needs to access sdcard1. After a reboot that also works. And the best part, Email doesn't crash anymore when I attach a file.

I did exactly as described above. Nothing more, nothing less. Dirty flash is possible. If I run into any more problems I'll be sure to post them.

EDIT:

Cleared ES Explorer cache, that did the trick.

BTW, I'm on locked bootloader...

Camera got screwed...

What did Sony do to Camera on lollipop? Camera is laggy with screen stuttering like it is on very low ISO. But it is far from the truth.. rather ISO is much higher than it is on Kitkat. Usually pictures taken in my room were on about 100 ISO, now they are above 600! Poor result, very disappointing.

Did Sony miss some camera library files on lollipop?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Nesdam1981:
Maybe they redesigned the camera to automatically adjust the ISO to a higher one to let more light in due to a low light environment? ISO makes less difference in bright environments than dark (lower ISO = less light is allowed into the camera) and lower ISO requires longer shutter speed. Just an idea from a photographer since you didn't mention what environment you used the camera in.

You're confusing ISO with aperture. Aperture and shutter speed controls the amount of light that hits the sensor. ISO adjusts the sensitivity of the digital sensor, giving more noise with higher sensitivity.
