hi,

I am using flashed generic unrooted 232. never unlocked my z2 bootloader so i believe it is locked. my phone is not locked to any carrier.

Are these instructions good for me or is there something i should do before? my aim is to have my 232 rooted.

You have to downgrade (via flashtool) to a rootable firmware like 5.0.2 and root via kingroot app and install recovery via XZRecovery app and then flash this pre-rooted firmware via recovery

Yes there is.

And as i know, this option is available in every firmware

[Xperia Z2 General] MrAksel:
Problems with SMS messaging

I rooted by downgrading to KitKat, rooting to install recovery, and then flashing the latest zip from this thread (23.4.A.1.232). Most things seems to work, but I discovered problems with SMS messaging.

The stock Sony Messaging app fails to send messages, but it shows previously received messages if its not the default SMS app. If I change it to the default app, all the message threads disappear from the view. The Google Messaging app won't send or receive messages at all, but I can successfully both receive and send messages with Google Hangouts. The only problem is that messages disappear one by one when leaving a conversation and reopening it, or when exiting the app. In the conversations view I can see a snippet of the last message sent or received, but when entering the conversation several messages may or may not have disappeared. It seems somehow the whole android SMSManager api is broken after the flash. I have also reflashed xzlockeddual recovery with the latest version (2.8.22) as recommended by this post, but without any success.

As an inexperienced rooter, I didn't know that I wouldn't have to unlock my bootloader first (so I did), and thus I lost my DRM keys too (so no help from customer support I guess). Since there is no way back, I hope some of you might know what's going on or have any suggestions to what I can do to fix SMS functionality. I would like to stick to the Sony ROM (because of the UI, Camera app and Playstation apps), but I can see if SMS works on CM if there are no other solutions.

The good news is that the installation process was troublefree and root works great now ;) Really appreciate the uploads!

Edit:

Well it's not the SMSManagers fault (since it doens't have anything to do with SMS except the actual transmission of messages), so it's probably the content provider that's going crazy. I'll debug tomorrow and see if I can find out something on my own.
[Xperia Z2 General] B-L:
It seems i have the same issue. have you found a solution yet?
[Xperia Z2 General] MrAksel:
Unfortunately I haven't. Been testing different apps, and I'm just as clueless as I was before. It seems none of the messages are available through the content://sms/inbox provider (neither are sent messages or drafts), and therefore none of the apps can see them.. I also can't send or receive MMS, with Google Hangouts reporting "MMS cannot be stored."

There are stored data in other content providers (bookmarks and searches), so I don't know if it's a problem with the whole content provider system or just specifically for messaging. I'm not sure what more I can try either, except for reflashing, and maybe an older version (5.0.1). I think I'll create a new thread for this issue if there are more than just you and me that have this problem.
[Xperia Z2 General] lywyn:
Have you tried this... http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=63152564&postcount=29 ?

Edit: Yes just realised, Only other thing I can think off is that when I've used these type of flashable upgrades I had to flash the stock kernel again to match the release. There's a good article on creating you own zip from scratch using PRF Creator (see mention in first post). I've opted to build my own more recently.#

Shame about the unlock and DRM but on the other hand you can try the custom roms and kernels now
[Xperia Z2 General] MrAksel:
Thanks for the tip, I'll try that tomorrow. Going to try a few other builds too to see if I can get some of them working. Will report back how it goes :good:
[Xperia Z2 General] MrAksel:
I got it working after i flashed 23.4.A.1.200 from this thread and cleared all caches etc. Hope this solves the problem for others too.

Best way how to fix it is just reinstalling the newest version of custom recovery. I had same issues but app just didn't opened and wasn't able to boot to recovery.

i got a Xda exec from ebay, but once i turned it on..it keep asking for a password...

i contacted the seller but he said he never set one up....so is there anyway to reset it???

or anyone knows what the password would be???

thanks a million!!!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] kdskamal:
Just hard-reset it. Press the soft keys+soft reset simuntaneouly and you can then commit a hard reset
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cktlcmd:
You probably have the OLD version of JWright's ROM where it is a KNOWN BUG that the password screen would just pop-up for no reason. If that is the only problem you have and would like to keep that ROM. Follow what KDSKamal suggested and Hard Reset your Universal. To bypass the bug, just set a password. If you don't want to be bothered by the password, set to to come up after 24 hours. In that way the only time the password would come out is after a soft reset. Now since you already plugged-in a password, even if the bug suddenly reactives the password screen, you already have a code to unlock it. :)

but i got it with original box and all accessories...and the IMEI with the phone is matching the one on the box....

so i guess it's legit....

:confused:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] PReDiToR:
Then you're probably right, not a stolen phone.

Do the hard reset, become familiar with flashing the ROM by using the latest official ROM for your device, then you can try the WM6 unofficial ones, or even Linux. Better to know how to flash the device with the right image than to go straight for something that might not work the way youo expect or the way you want.

Good luck!

Try the FTP site (see the wiki for more info) for the radio roms etc, and the search function should help you find many of the custom roms for WM6y or AKU3 etc.

I got a Moto E from Cricket the other day and spent the last couple of days searching the forums to no avail and I hope to save others from wasting their time. I feel like if this is true it should be in one of the Guides or FAQs or something. I had to do a lot of searching before finding all this out.

So apparently Cricket/Att have opted out of/refused to participate in Motorolas bootloader unlock program.

The ONLY way (so far at least) to unlock your bootloader is by using the official unlock code from Motorola.

If you try and get the code from their site you get the error message: "Your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking."

The only way to get root is to have an unlocked bootloader.

To make matters even worse, it appears as if they have completely blocked the ability to move ANY apps to the SD card. So you will have about 2Gigs total for apps.

I am going to try and return the phone today and buy an already unlocked version. Id love it if I was wrong about this but afaik that is the state of things atm.

[Moto E General] CSP III:
This is just for sim unlock. Has nothing to do with unlocking of bootloader. Not going to happen. Strange as I was previously using an HTC desire 510 purchased in January 2015 on Cricket and had no problem unlocking that bootloader. I think it's just this particular phone. Either that or I just happened to get lucky.... Typically not the case though
[Moto E General] ojmh7:
Hello, I just bought a moto e 1st gen (global unlocked) from amazon, the thing is that amazon sent me a cricket version of the phone. The phone is actually global unlocked but it has a lot of cricket apps and the software is limited by cricket which means that for example the wifi hotspot is not available, I was wondering if there is something I could do to activate the wifi hotspot ? thanks
[Moto E General] DarkBlaidd:
I don't know ojmh7, that is really weird. Are you sure it's unlocked? Did you buy it new?
[Moto E General] ojmh7:
Yep, it is a NEW global sim unlocked phone, bought it directly from amazon (not third party vendors), only 3 weeks ago. In fact I just tried to unlock the bootloader and I get the same msj as you "Your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking", so looks like I'm screwed too.

So carefull if you decide to buy a moto e 1st gen from amazon because you might get a cricket version phone :mad:
