[Xperia SP Android Development] trioset:
No. This ROM is running a script to set the default route, the 'original' LB mobile data script in fact. Problem is Lollipop does policy based routing through the ip command and our kernel is compiled without support cos its from JB. VPN is a lot more routing commands and would be a lot more complicated to fix.

Possibly could be done with a shell script at /system/bin/ip that parses the arguments, modifies them to work with our kernel, then passes them to the real 'ip' binary.

Just for fun, the mobile data fix is possible without a script, rename /system/bin/ip to something else and symlink to busybox binary at /system/xbin/busybox - busybox doesn't understand the policy routing but drops it silently, and succeeds in setting the default route. Unfortunately VPN still doesn't work.

AFAIK the only way to get VPN working here is with the openvpn client binary and manual configuration.

all you have to do is connect your Android and use Android File Transfer (basically mount it as a drive) then drag your music to music folder and pics to pics.

now use Mac to add your Pics to Photos (iPhoto if older) and import your music into iTunes and now when you hook up your iPhone you can tell iTunes what to sync.

shouldnt be hard

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ess Arr:
The ear speaker issue in xperia z (yuga) is well known. As we know ril of xperia z is broken in usually all latest android lp based roms (expect stock) i.e. we can't hear the caller or caller can't hear us. And we always blame it as ril issue. Ok let me explain my motive for this thread. I want to clear chances that it could be a hardware issue and if you know that i hav method to detect the problem, reason and its solution (which is specefic or may not work).

After searching on google for long time i hav conclusion.

Reason

1. Ril issue (software related)

2. The speaker failure (solution is not applicable) due to water or impact

3. The overheating of the phone cause melting of resin which hold the back panel. Due to melting, The back panel starts to open on the edges or corners of the phone. This cause loose grip of back panel on ear speaker and it stop working.

Ok these were possible reasons

How To Detect

1. If you are on stock rom just dial *#*#7378423#*#* and then device check.

2. If on custom rom just download "Xperia Diagnostics" app which perform same functions.

During test if the speaker not works then it could be a hardware issue.

Solution

1. Try to avoid the overheating of the phone which is usually caused due to the heavy gaming and browsing. (Which is practically not possible :D)

2. Run any one of the method mentioned above for detecting problem if speaker doesn't works then during the testing process press the area near to speaker from front as well as area around the rear camera and secondary mic. (Worked for me)

Note- Dont press too hard or it will break the phone's display screen.

If you find this thread helpful, then don't forget to hit "thanks" :o
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teamgoc:
My phone gets super hot when navigating long trips (across europe for example), this is probably how i messed it up.

For me pressing the corner left of the camera lens helped, and along the left edge from the power button upwards to the left corner (both locations looking at the backside). Also slightly twisting the phone does the trick.

thanks for the hint!

Thanks for this - it's working well.

Could you provide us with a link to your source code, or at least the modifications you made to the stock source. I can see the changes you made to the ramdisk by extracting it from the image, but I'd be interested in what you did to the kernel to get it working too.

Thanks,

Does anyone know how to update to the latest version without losing data after we flash this kernel? (The one with the stagefright fixes)
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] DHGE:
a kernel (on the kernel partition)will not fix stagefright issues.

You need better libraries (on the system partion).

devries made a boot partition.

I assume he copied my work (source in the Z4 tablet forum).

This might work:

flash a new ROM with stagefright fixes (none available today)

flash an insecure boot image like selfmade or devries if you trust him

root the decice (my sources on Z4 tablet forum)

reflash the boot partion of the new ROM (you might have to work on the ramdisk)

Before someone asks;

I will not do the work for you.

I will not make a video.

I will not post binaries. I posted sources. SONY posted kernel sources.

This is scary stuff. You should know what you are doing and how to recover a device.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Devries:
https://github.com/DevriesL/E6553_ImageBreaker that is my kernel source code,but in these auto-root kernel I provided before,I just disable RIC and SELinux , after I find that bug some root apps doesn't work well , I have revert a lot of commits ....
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] hWorblehat:
Thanks,

And what toolchain did you use to compile? When I compile my resulting zImage is different to yours (although exactly the same size), and it won't boot. I can't seem to work out why, so I though maybe the toolchain...
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Devries:
I use the gcc 4.9 from qualcomm baseline,are you sure that you have successfully made a dt.img?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] hWorblehat:
Yes. The dt.img that I generated was identical to the one I extracted from your boot.img, using binary compare. But, the kernal zImage file is quite different, and I don't know why.

I'd really appreciate it if you could take me though the exact steps used to build, including links to the tool chains. I've looked up various instructions on how to build and I can't see that I'm doing anything wrong. There are no errors during the build, but every time I flash it it won't boot. Really at a loss here as to what I'm doing wrong.

Is there any way to backup Sony Xperia Z3+ DRM Keys before rooting ? my search results from google says.....its not possible... so by using this Root method... will loose DRM Keys ? ?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] hWorblehat:
[MENTION=4533099]Devries[/MENTION], Yes - and also tried with the pre-packed ramdisk img I extracted from your boot.img, which was binary-identical.

[MENTION=6774113]DHGE[/MENTION], starting even with the unmodified SONY sources, I couldn't compile and get the phone to boot. That's why I think the issue must be with *how* I'm compiling; either the particular toolchains I'm using , or the commands / environment variables. I'm following the instructions in README_Xperia.

I'm gonna try everything from scratch again today... then give up when it doesn't work.
