Hi for my ask,

Your firmware is support with flashtool 0.9.21.0 or no, beause i flash with flashtool and brick my device 4 times, and sent to Sony Center 4 times, now I am very afraid to use flashtool with M5

If use flashtool 0.9.21.0 it have use .fsc script or not with your firmware

Thanks
[Sony Xperia M5] icstm:
The fsc file is now built into the package that flash tool gets from xperifirm. So unlike 20 you no longer get a prompt
[Sony Xperia M5] hptnvnn2:
Thanks so much, i just up flashtool 0.9.22.1, it's ok now flashtool have changelog:

C4 and C5 users please do not flash using Flashtool. It will brick the device. M5 users please do use FSC when flashing or it will brick your device

i hope flash it ok
[Sony Xperia M5] knight84:
Hi thanks for the hard work.

I just upgraded to marshmallow firmware through Sony companion. Means no root.

1) Any chance for me to revert back to 5.1 using customised FTF you supplied with flashtool?

2) If above yes, then root will be applied as per your instructions. Is root maintained if I flash the marshmallows using dd tool?

Waiting your response. :)
[Sony Xperia M5] mbc07:
Downgrading with Androxyde's Flashtool to one of the old exploitable firmwares then using dd Flasher Minimal to go to the latest Lollipop firmware still works fine. Just don't use dd Flasher Minimal with the Marshmallow firmware, it'll bootloop because of dm-verity...
[Sony Xperia M5] Bennybtc:
Can i downgrade without wiping userdata? Any possible side effects of doing it?
[Sony Xperia M5] mbc07:
From my past experience with other devices, downgrading without wiping user data will result in a bootloop, or, in the rare occasion it actually complete the boot, all apps will keep FCing and the phone will be unusable. The only cases where keeping user data don't yield issues is when you upgrade to a newer or to the same Android version...
[Sony Xperia M5] Bennybtc:
Okay thanks for the answer

Do you think there will be possible root method for MM soon or later?

I'm confused wether keep using MM and waiting for future exploit or reverting back now to LP because there wouldn't any method.

Please give me some advice:confused:
[Sony Xperia M5] pren22:
There will always be possibility of rooting,sooner or later,we just have to be patient.
[Sony Xperia M5] dlanor3x:
One question, if i have a locked device and the device was upgraded to 6.0 marshmallow, can i use flashtool to install this .ftf and have 5.1 back to my phone?, remember that my bootloader is locked. I want to get back in order to root my phone.

thanks for your time

Problem running iovysu.sh on mac

Hi guys, I have been having problems running the script on mac, has anyone tried this before?

it tells me it cannot execute the ./tools/adb.elf binary file.

I am quoting due to my lack of privileges to post links redirecting to a different page.

In advance, thank you for your help.
[Sony Xperia M5] mbc07:
Of course it won't work, the bundled adb binary is for Linux, not for Mac. Replacing ./tools/adb.elf with a proper version for Mac should fix that (e.g. Android SDK for Mac)...

No - doesn't support. I had checked it:mad:
[Sony Xperia M5] reradath:
:crying::crying::crying:
[Sony Xperia M5] mbc07:
Before anyone asks again, iovySU will never support other firmwares besides the ones already listed in the OP, all firmwares released later already patched the exploit iovyroot/iovySU uses. I should probably write that on the FAQ too...
[Sony Xperia M5] GR4V17Y:
i did everything right but when i entered to iovySU and waited it says device is not supported

[Sony Xperia M5] 64erbaz:
Hello. I flashed firmware 30.0.A.1.23 on my brandnew E5603 without any errors. But afterwards the LED went red and I can not reboot or turn off the phone, even with the off-button underneath the sim-cover.

When I plug it on, Flashtool says:

Device connected with USB debugging off

INFO - For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode

Sony PC Companion is searching for the phone but after half a minute it says: PC Companion has to be upgraded. And after pressing the search-button it says that I already use the newest version.

What can I do to restart or turn off the phone?

Thank you!
[Sony Xperia M5] ih8redsn0w:
What version of flashtool did you use?

Also, this was the wrong place to post this question
[Sony Xperia M5] 64erbaz:
Version 0.9.23.2.

Why? It was a result of the process described in post 1.
[Sony Xperia M5] ih8redsn0w:
Do you by any chance have the flash process still?

And where did you download it the firmware from
[Sony Xperia M5] 64erbaz:
I can not flash at all. I downloaded Version 30.0.A.1.23 1299-3741_R1A with XperiFirm.

Meanwhile the red LED is off. I can´t turn the phone on with the power button. When I plug the phone to the computer, the red LED goes on, when I plug it off, the Led goes off.

Trying to flash ends with the following result:

Device connected with USB debugging off

INFO - For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode
[Sony Xperia M5] ih8redsn0w:
Pm me with some more information
[Sony Xperia M5] mbc07:
Red LED, no response, sounds like a hard brick. You probably used an old FlashTool version or skipped the FSC script, only a service center can repair it now...
[Sony Xperia M5] ih8redsn0w:
I'm thinking he used and older version but he says he hasn't. Androxyde made it compulsory to use the fsc and if you click no on the new version it will deny the flash. So I'm thinking He may have flash the wrong model software. But yes I it is hard bricked.
[Sony Xperia M5] 64erbaz:
I enabled USB Debugging but I did not enable unknown sources. Could this be the reason?
[Sony Xperia M5] ih8redsn0w:
No

AFAIK iovyroot source is available on GitHub, not completely sure it'll compile on ARMv7 though (try asking [MENTION=3975929]zxz0O0[/MENTION], the author of iovyroot). Keep in mind that even with a ARMv7 binary, iovySU wouldn't work when run on an ARMv7 device because the stripped down SuperSU package bundled with it targets ARMv8 specifically, and I have no plans in releasing newer versions of iovySU...
[Sony Xperia M5] dadreamer:
I asked about that in his thread and on Github, but no answer there yet. So, I might compile it on my own to check if it works on my device. I need some JOP chain code and it seems to be one of such toolkits.

Not even Framroot, Kingroot, Kingoroot, 360root, towelroot worked. All say "not supported yet".
[Sony Xperia M5] mbc07:
If you at least tried searching instead of just complaining you would eventually end on this thread. As I said numerous times before, iovySU will never support any firmware other than the ones already listed in the OP because the exploit it uses to root the phone got fixed on the newer firmwares. Also, there's no way to get root on Marshmallow firmware without unlocking the bootloader and flashing a modified kernel, so if your phone has a permanently locked bootloader then you can't have root at all while running on Marshmallow firmware.
[Sony Xperia M5] Ketansa:
Hello sorry that I did not search enough,

But I unlocked the bootloader, and tried rooting through those apps as well as pc method. Didn't work so....

Hey mbc07,

Thank you very much. I just rooted using the method from the link you just gave. It worked. So happy :) :)

Seeking help with M5 e5633 marshmallow root.

Hi.

Im new to this. I've come here a few times to root my device but quit because there were too many things I didnt understand and I didnt want my phone bricked for me being irresponsible.

My Device: Xperia M5 Dual E5633 android 6.0 Build: 30.2.B.0.100

I want to root because:

1. I need to be able to use my external storage as freely as in kitkat

2. I want my phone to be free from junk and want to deal with the '

other files

' taking up the majority of my internal storage.

3. I want to use an app to simulate a gyroscope in my device so that I can fully make use of the VR functionalities.

The third reason is the most important.

This Australian article suggests the Cam Plus is only designed to charge the main battery when you're using the camera...maybe that explains your 15 min cutoff?

[T-Mobile LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] PENKO956:
wrong. you can charge the phone without going into the camera app just by simply pressing the power button of the module once.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] arctophile:
[MENTION=2497794]PENKO956[/MENTION] OK. Once for a full charge or once every 15 minutes? Also isn't the power button on the Cam Plus designed to launch the camera? Or is that another button...?

[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] primitive_recursive:
Hello, firstly, I apologise if this thread is in the wrong place, please redirect me to where I need to go and if I should repost if needed.

I am running cyanogenmod 13 nightlies on a samsung galaxy S5 duos. I previously started with cm12.1 nightlies. With the CM12.1 nightlies, I had two sim cards plugged in and was able to run my main SIM on LTE with the secondary SIM on 2G.

Now on CM13, my secondary SIM will only run on either 3G or LTE (these are the options offered by the UI). If plugged in this forces the main SIM to run 2G only.

Just in case, the main SIM is my number in my country and the secondary SIM is roaming, from a previous country. I want to use data on my main SIM (obviously) and not my second SIM.

My second SIM is 2G compatible. Using another handset, I can select 2G only, even while roaming, and still connect to the network.

I have had this problem with all CM13 nightlies I have tried.

Is this a regression with android? Does anyone know of a workaround?

Thanks.
