[Xperia Z2 Android Development] :
My phone booted right up.

Previous firmware was 264 UK with the latest XZDR and Beta SuperSU

I manually deleted all data, internal storage, system and caches; then proceeded to install the un-rooted Beta firmware. It took half the time to boot up than it did on Lollipop.

I'm gonna start all over because i want root and recovery on Marshmallow. (I'll start from 4.4.2, then 5.1.1 and finally 6.0.1)

__________

Sorry for the misunderstanding. It was my fault and please don't get excited. I thought that the provided prerooted firmware was the MM one, not the 264.

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] eagle25884:
Flashed .570 from latest 5.1.1 (.264) via TWRP. I use Z2 D5803.

As stated in OP:

- copied downloaded .570 to ext. SD-Card (Download-Link in Post #2)

- rebooted into TWRP

- wiped

- flashed .570

- Rebooted

Reboot takes long time, don´t get nervous :)

Tested TWRP with Reboot = perfect. SuperSU is also there. Didn´t test fully Root yet.

Now it´s time to setup my Z2. Thanks Niaboc79, great work !

How can i update from 486 to 570 without wiping ?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] mysubcult:
Hello everyone, i have .486 and LB, what should i do to install .570?

p.s. i dont have root. just previus .486 stock version by niaboc. and i dont have recovery.

[MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION] I see an existenz folder in your uploaded zip !!! Is that a sign :confused:!!?? :D
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] vikash1994b:
Lol no it includes the ftf files and zip files like supersu.zip,recovery etc etc..
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Thieuke:
Ok, let me tell you about my updating to. 570.

I used fastboot to flash a Cwm based boot.img. So I could reboot into recovery.

I tried to do a factory wipe. First data, then cache and then it got stuck.

So I thought: let's just flash the mm. 570 rom and hope for twrp to be installed, and do the wiping and installation again.

So I installed the zip. Reboot and..........

The z2 started to boot up, updated 310 apps and started the rom.

I checked firmware:.yep, .570 was on there. I still got all my apps and WhatsApp conversations etcetera. It's like a update.

Did a root checker and....... Yep, rooted!

I'm now very happy. I'm on latest firmware with all my stuff still in the phone.

Let's see what happens in the next couple of days....

Thanks niaboc79!
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Freedomaster:
Guys is there a way to update to 570 from 486 without wiping everything?
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] r34c7:
As i am new to Sony i want to ask basically the same, can i update from existenz 7.0 to .570 without wiping because it would take me ages to set up my phone again? I hope this won't be considered as offtopic as i noticed the developer of both ROMs is the same. Thanks !
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Thieuke:
Well, reed my post above the previous, but know this: a lot didn't work! No photo -> reboot, play YouTube video -> reboot etc.

I got into twrp and did full wipe, installed .570 again, and ask us fine now.

So yes it is possible, but not without tweeking or some more I guess

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] zevzek:
Of course there is.

For instance, I downloaded marshmallow ftf from XperiaFirm and combined it only with BETA-SuperSU-v2.68-systemroot.zip using PRFCreator 1.3.

I then flashed the prerooted zip, byeselinux_flashable.zip, RICDefeat.zip and xposed v81 zip without rebooting.

Then I booted up the phone and checked if I had root and xposed.

After making sure everything was okay, I installed recovery using serajr v2 install.

Still using it with no bootloops or random restarts.

Recovery works with no problem and is able to mount system in r/w.

I should also mention that my bootloader is locked.

I wiped nothing as you can see.

Also, I think you shouldn't flash the bootloop fix as it was made to be used with .486 fw and there's no need for it on .570

Bonsoir

J'ai installé la version avec kernel béta de cette rom et je souhaiterais installer la derniere version, comment dois je faire?

Fut il faire un full wipe ou juste un mini wipe?

Merci de votre aide
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] Shady_BlackSn0w:
Bonsoir

Je ne sais pas si il est nécessaire de faire full wipe ou non

Mais vous pouvez essayer sans aucun wipe (dirty flashing)

Mon opinion faire full wipe c'est mieux

Mais n'oubliez pas de faire un sauvegarde de votre affaires personnelles ( photos contacts etc..)

:)

hello master,

I would like to ask something about writing permission of external sd card.

How can we fix this sd card writing issue in MM? (i can not use any third party app for editing)

Platform file is a bit different from Lollipop. Permission lines are different.

Will the next existenz include this fix?

[Xperia Z2 Android Development] moonryder:
hi bro,

maybe i am wrong, but i found this "solution":

Android 6.0 or Marshmallow will now allow you to format your external SD card so it appears as internal storage. And Android will then allow you to move over photos and movies and apps over if you want. This is called Internal mode.

You can also choose to keep using your old external SD card format - this is called Portable mode.

How to turn external SD card into internal storage on Marshmallow

Go to device “Settings” > select “Storage”.

Select your SD Card > tap the three-dot menu on top-right corner > and select “Settings” from there.

Select “Format as internal” > and then “Erase & Format” on the next screen.

Your SD Card will now be formatted as internal storage.

Reboot phone.

--> This is very important, otherwise you may end up frustrated with issues like MTP not showing SD card, some apps not working properly, etc..

But remember: formatting as internal will delete all your files on the external sd card!!!

Sorry if i am totally wrong, if so then i will delete this post.
[Xperia Z2 Android Development] zevzek:
Well yeah, you're kinda right.

Marshmallow allows that, but Sony, as most other phone manufacturers, removed that function and our system doesn't have that capability, nor it ever will.

Re SD support, Portable mode sucks, many apps unable to write to card. Internal mode (adoptable storage) is even worse, as it encrypts your card meaning you are unable to move it between devices. I'll stick with L until a workable solution exists, or I change my device in the summer
