Uninstalling exploit app

I think if I could install dual recovery, then I am fine, right? but why the phone stuck there?
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] JediDru:
I really don't know. This phone is the most temperamental phone to root. Try to avoid the most recent flash tool, disable driver signature on Windows newer then 7. Be sure to Uninstall your current java and use the one linked in the root thread. The list goes on.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] rfresh:
I think I got the root use KingRoot, I could install Dual recovery, but why it shows TWRP recovery?

Is that matter which way to root?

I think if I got the root, and could install recovery, that means no matter, right?

1, Do I need to wipe all data before flash the prerooted zip file?

I actually do a dirty install and also a fresh install, none of them works.

2, My phone just stuck at Verizon logo for a whole night

Any more suggestions?
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] JediDru:
Well if you have everything working now on the computer side minus actually flashing this zip I only have one suggestion. I personally would start over clean, if you can't flash this after a wipe. I mean by using flash tool and starting at the first firmware getting root and recovery then install the lollipop zip. I have no idea what is hanging you up but starting clean eliminates a ton of variables that otherwise get in the way.

Team win recovery is one of the recoveries in that zip. The other is clockworkmod. You can switch between the two from an app in the device.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] BladeRunner:
have you tried a fresh download of the zip? Maybe your download was corrupt. if you've got recovery then it SHOULD flash without an issue.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] MicLima:
Well, I just about crapped myself! Did a clean install and flashed zip, no errors in recovery. Booted and got to the setup...no data, nothing, could not set up and no option to enable wifi. I was stuck constantly restarting to the initial setup.

Long story short, I live in an area where I'm constantly roaming on Verizon. After the initial boot after flashing and you get to the setup, power off the phone and remove the sim card then reboot. You will get to select wifi and continue setting up once you sign in with your gmail and get to home screen, power off, insert sim card and reboot. Then you can go in and enable data roaming.

Hope this helps someone!!

I was already downloading the file again to make sure my original wasn't corrupt, and was fully prepared to "lose" my phone!
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] djholl710:
when trying to flash .zip from recovery i get a error that says "set_perm: some changes failed". it says install from sdsard complete but no 5.0.2

Any ideas?
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] cdudeman:
Has anyone else noticed their WiFi being really slow after installing this update? It seems to be a 5.0.2 bug and disabling ipv6 seems to fix the problem. Lame but I guess it will do for now.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] rfresh:
I got slow wifi too, but when I use my LG G2 at the same spot, it is really good

Where I could disable IPV6?
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] cdudeman:
You need to be rooted and you can download [ROOT] Disable IPv6 from the playstore. if you reboot the changes revert though. Or if you can disable ipv6 on your wireless router that is another option.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] rfresh:
After download brand new pretooted -flash.zip, it is still the same issue

After flash it through TWRP 2.8.7.1, the phone just stay at Verizon boot screen, even if wait for several hours, the phone won't boot up

But, I could use FTF file to flashtool it to v5.0.2 version without root, I still need root.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] MicLima:
After having flashed 509, and getting everything working, I just discovered I cannot get into recovery anymore. Busybox is installed and TWRP Manager says that TWRP is installed but I can't boot to recovery through shortcut or POWER + VOL DOWN. Any ideas?

Edit: Also, my SD card doesn't auto-mount upon bootup. I have to physically take it out and re-insert it to get it recognized...
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] BladeRunner:
Reinstall the recovery. If simply reinstalling it doesn't work then go through the removal steps in the dual recovery thread and do a fresh install.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] MicLima:
Thanks for that! Reinstalling did the trick, don't know why I didn't think to do it lol. Anyway, that seems to have fixed the SD card mounting problem as well.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] ecbertram:
Thank you so much for this pre-root!!! After I got root and did OTA update and installed Xposed and some other things I notice my google play store was not working for anything.. just retry connection screen. I lost hope, but then today decided to try this pre-root seeing as i have been wanting 5.0 for a while now. anyhow. Everything went so smoothly and After dirty install to keep all my things It fixed my Google play store issue and Loving the new FW. Thanks again. This just made my day!
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] ecbertram:
I do have to ask though, is it safe to install Xposed on this pre-rooted FW you provide us lovely people from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811

Or do I face the risk of btt loop still because of This know issue stated in that post:

"- Sony seems to have shipped some ROMs with corrupted services.odex (the embedded .dex is invalid). Those ROMs will bootloop with a "Fatal signal 6" or "No pending exception expected: java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException" error, which I unfortunately cannot fix."

Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated!

Buddy

Can you please share the details on how to flash this zip file?

My issue is after flash this ROM, my phone always stay at boot logo of VERIZON
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] ecbertram:
What I done was after I rooted and installed twrp recovery. I downloaded this Preroot zip file and carried it over to the root of my SD card. I then used the NDR Utils to boot into twrp recovery. I clicked on install tab and located the Preroot zip file and flashed that. Once done I wiped cache/dalvik and then let that do its thing and rebooted. It stayed at Verizon boot screen for like 5 mins and went to updating app screen and after it did all that it booted up with 5.0.2 just fine.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] rfresh:
Hi, Buddy:

I followed your guide to put zip ROM onto my SD card

Unfortunately, I still could not get my phone boot, it always looping at Verizon logo

Do you know if we have any log to check why it won't boot?

If I stay at 4.4.4, everything works perfectly,

But I still want to upgrade to Lollipop

Please help
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] GigaSPX:
If you follow exactly what I instructed, everything should run fine. On first boot, it will take a little longer than usual while you're on the Verizon logo screen, but it definitely loads.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] Roamingnome3:
My 2 cents

Just my 2 cents. I'd imagine if you're rooted and running xposed framework on 4.4.4 it may be wise to deactivate your modules and uninstall the exposed framework. Theres a newer experimental version that has to be flashed through twrp/cwm to install on lollipop. Just in case someone missed that minor detail. Could save you from boot loops and lockup at boot....just to be safe.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] sookieball:
Just quick question.

I already am on lollipop prerooted.

And I've already used system app removed app to debloat quite a bit. I went by the list on z3 generals post(searched apps safe to remove)

Just want to know if anyone has any more. I like my phone to be as vanilla as possible.

Also, thanks [MENTION=4986864]GigaSPX[/MENTION] loving the work.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] GigaSPX:
If you look far back into the earlier threads of the Z3v, I have also made a list of apps to freeze that contain a lot of Verizon crap.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] rfresh:
Thanks, i am not installing any exposed service

I still could not make this pre-rooted ROM boot successful.

Not sure why
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] GigaSPX:
Are you rooted with recovery or not?
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] rfresh:
Thanks for helping me on this

But what do you mean rooted by recovery?

I rooted use Kingroot and install SuperSu use TWRP
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] Roamingnome3:
You have to root the original build that came with our phones then run the software to get cwm/twrp recovery..I assume and advise you run the twrp flash program after you take the update to 4.4.4 if you're planning on it, that way you won't have to flash it twice...then download the prerooted rom.zip and flash it using twrp recovery that was just installed.

My screen is broken on my Xperia so I can't test this out myself.

I wouldn't use kingroot..ever. I assume you used it on the 4.4.4 firmware?
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] rfresh:
Yes, but what could I do ?
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] Roamingnome3:
I don't know what to tell you. I have the latest Java running on windows 8, disabled driver signing, used flashtool to flash stock firmware, enable USB debugging on phone, ran the root exploit (if prompted on the phone always trust your pc), pulled up adb on my PC and connected the Xperia and "su"d the shell (you'll get a prompt to trust your PC, always trust) grant su access on prompt, ran dual recovery and done. As far as root and ndr goes for me, it went off without a hitch.

Now, there's a standalone adb/fast boot installer floating around here that I use on a regular basis so maybe that helps. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=48915118#post48915118

I have noticed there are programs that interfere with adb connecting to the phone..blustacks especially..any emulators...
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] pvcdroid:
Kingroot windows desktop version was the only way I could get 4.4.4 rooted. I tried the exploit many times with Java installed and it just wouldn't work for me.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] Tigerhoods:
So I was being lazy after breaking my phone the other day and I know you don't want to use kingroot cause it sends some of your info to China or Russia or something so I stumbled upon kingoroot not kingroot kingo root just looks like our exploit wrapped in a app package it also works on the latest firmware of kitkat so you don't have to flash back to. 376 someone should start a new thread for this way cause people can not use flashtool correctly.

Help....

Newb trying to upgrade z3v to lollipop.

Used mobilego to root phone... I couldn't make it work any other way (spent 2 days trying to root it).

Down loaded quick boot (no luck). Rom manager they don't support d6708.... Down loaded twrp tried using .zip file from sd card to flash... Hit flash now and goes directly back to Sony then Verizon splash screens like all I did was reset, not flash... So out of my league now.

Started with your tutorial but cannot make it work. While trying to flash in flashtool64 it cannot find my device. Went to drivers folder and tried installing ALL drivers... Still won't work.

I know it's me... Any help appreciated- ferao
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] Tigerhoods:
OK does your phone currently work if so download kingo root play store root ur phone in 30 seconds then download the lollipop pre -rooted zip not ftf flash in twrp done before flash wipe davlik,cache,data enjoy.make sure its for the z3v only.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] Ferao:
Ok, no change... I did use kingo root.

I made a .zip from FTF (with prf creator- followed the directions on this thread in the beginning). Still no luck.

Its named flashable-prerooted.zip= put it on my sd card and in downloads... neither one works when I tell TWRP to install that file.

Any other ideas...
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] BladeRunner:
What do you mean "neither one works"? Do you get an error in twrp? What happens?
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] Ferao:
Sorry for the confusion. I copied the zip to both the sd card and into the internal downloads hoping that one of those places would work. The install goes like this, install, select add a .zip file (from either location), flash now. THen the phone resets like normal. Sony splash screen then VZW splash... still in 4.4.4.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] Tigerhoods:
dude this should work are u using twrp do what I said it took me 15 min to 20 to go through the whole process.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] Ferao:
So... Do I need to be on the .376 (shipped version) for this to work... I am trying to get the shipped version on my phone. Currently on .44. I know it is a locked boot loader that is the problem know. (at least that is what I assume). Is there a faster way to flash/install the new version? (Lollipop) Of is it necessary to get the old. 23.0,e,0,376 on before the change to 509 works? Still lost. I did a factory reset in hopes that the new "fresh" system would allow it to happen sooner.

Thanks for your help
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] JediDru:
You can use kingroot on.44. Root, install dual recovery, then flash the lollipop prerooted zip.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] pvcdroid:
That's how I did it using the desktop version of kingroot. It's in Chinese but it works. You'll likely get virus warnings but it cleans up with anti malware and uninstalling.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] visinacgile:
Hello !

Please, can anyone give me advice what to do ? I am trying to get root with exploit on stock rom 23.0.E.0.376. I really tried that many times and always stuck on "Java runtime = null".

I found here somewhere that the problem is with some traces of earlier versions of Java in my pc. So, I did proper uninstall of Java many times. With Revo unistaller and with Your Uninstaller. So that programs did fine cleaning of Java traces, even from win registry. After every uninstalling Java I did reboot pc and install new versions of Java with little tool "javainst" from "D6616_rootfull" folder.

But always is the same story. Rooting start fine with exploit and when came to java stop on "Java runtime = null". Does someone knows where is the problem or maybe some better way to for Java uninstalling from pc, in order to make some clean new install of Java without old leftovers.

Thanks !

Download the kingroot apk, the pre-rooted flashable zip and the xz dual recovery installer to your pc, unzip the xz dual recovery installer. place the kingroot apk and the flashable zip on your sd card. Install the kingroot apk and use it to get (temp)root. As soon as you get root with kingroot run the xz dual recovery installer batch file. When your phone boots into twrp the first time do a factory wipe (not sure that it's necessary but it doesn't hurt) then flash the pre-rooted zip. When you reboot your phone will be rooted with supersu.
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] visinacgile:
First of all... thank you for the quick response !

I did like you said. Got the root with Kingroot, installed dual recovery... but when I had to flash prerooted rom through TWRP I couldn't do it. Becouse TWRP did not recognise my external sd card. I tried to do flash with Philz recovery and after that with CWM recovery but that didn't work. CWM and Philz recovery did recognise external sd card but when flashing is started it took about 5-7 second and than was finished. After that my phone boot up in earlier rom 23.0.E.0.376 with root(Kingroot are still there) and with dualrecovery. I tried copuple of times with same results.

So, I did search for that problem... could be file format. TWRP only recognise FAT32 file format. Even so my card was in FAT32 I did refformating sd card in pc but that also didn't help. Could it be that I need to make partition on sd card through the TWRP ?
[Xperia Z3v Android Development] BladeRunner:
just put it in the internal memory and flash from there

Messed Up

I rooted using Kingo root app and then installed TWRP. Flashed the zip using TWRP and the phone booted and was stuck in the Verizon logo for 15 mins. Tried to factory restore, still the same(stuck at Verizon logo). Got back to TWRP and reinstalled it and wipe dalvik cache. Still the same. Frustrated and by some reason got into CWM and did erase everything for new ROM (donno what I was thinkin) and screwed up now, phone is stuck at power up screen. Would love to try to restore using and FTF file. Tried one ftf but it doesn't go far. Can any one point me out to a stock ftf file for D6708? Thanks.
