Many thanks for compiling this, worked flawlessly. Just got a Z3C a couple days ago, this has saved me a good amount of time gaining root. Couldn't go back to using android without the customisation of xposed.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] :
If you want the latest available I suggest to use xperifirm. Use their flashtool to download the latest version and also to flash it. If you do not find the correct customiuzed image for your provider, you may also use the swiss or german one (swiss is actually also used as free in Austria). I use the german, as it gives me highest chance for early OTA updates....altough you always can flash the newest via flashtool.....

Note, if you are on any provider FW (A1, Drei, TMobile) you might lose bloatware when going to open germany or swiss :).

As nearly all providers and reagions are already on 575 you probably get the next update anyhow when you OTA update to 264. 264 is already old.

To check the latest available you can also use webpage: https://xpericheck.com/
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] _Agility_:
Thank you, I found out, Sony was offering the .575 on their homepage.

I'll get started right away :)

I've been stuck on stock 5.1.1 for a year. Going to install stock MM soon and root.. finally :D Any issues at all? i'm planning to put on xposed etc
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] :
It took me 2 tries to get TWRP running.

Befor playing with exppsed etc. I recommend to directly do a backuo, so you can go back if anything goes wrong. This saved me as on exposed install on first try I ended in a bootloop......

I'm stuck.

I upgraded to 23.5.A.0.575

USB-debugging is on,

but the entry non-standard places has disappeared and been replaced by "chose app for simulated places"

when I run install.bat it hangs at the line

adb wait-for-device

I waited for 30 minutes, but nothing happened

what else can I do?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] M1chiel:
Did you upgrade with Flashtool? If yes, you have the correct drivers. Is it still open on your PC? It may interfere with the rooting tool.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] _Agility_:
no, I updated using the sony companion.

so I need to install flashtool first?

I found sa0111adb.inf on the sony page but do not know how to install it on my Win7 PC

I found out how to installl the driver and TWRP is installed

thank you all
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] M1chiel:
Drivers should be OK then. Did you close Sony Companion?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] _Agility_:
I have TWRP now, but no root.

I moved UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.01.zip from download.chainfire.eu to my internal memory and put it in the queue for flashing, then wiped the ok and something happened, but supersu says I am not rooted.

which supersu.zip do I really need.

I had chainfire supersu pro on my old device.

than you for any further help

Working in D6633 with modified iovyroot

If any is interested, i have modified iovyroot and get temp root in my Z3 (D6633), and changing iovyroot in this package, i installed TWRP Recovery, then permanent root with SuperSU-v2.76.

Here is a little more info in spanish: grupoandroid com/topic/124476-root-en-z3-con-marshmallow/#comment-1628494

[Xperia Z3 Compact General] MCBuhl:
Hey. worked for me after some Trouble. Had the message that adb on Client side wasn't same as in script (something with 32 and 36 iirw). I then deleted the three adb files in the Folder c:\adb and copied these out of the zip into this folder. Then it worked, flashed newest SuperSU from Homepage (UPDATE-SuperSu-v2.76), installed pro key - everything fine. I'm rooted within a Moment. Thanks!!
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] OGSwank:
Recovery doesnt seem to be installed properly as when i restart i can never get back into it. Whats the reason for this?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] :
Do you see the messaging light going green while on SONY screen? Then press your volume +/- keys like an idiot ( +, -, both, as ofthen as you can) till it turns pink......then it will boot in TWRP.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] OGSwank:
Works now! :eek: thanks

---------- Post added at 01:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:29 PM ----------

My device seems to be really slow at booting up (9 seconds on the animate screen) compared to when i was on 5.1.1. It lags just before its about to load. I flashed using the customized firmware and checked all wipe settings. I've tried to clear the cache but nothing. Could this be a bad flash or is it just a bug?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] serajr:
You don't need to to that!

I wrote all the the recovery scripts, and the one responsible for entering TWRP needs a single volume down press only, upon the green led (you have 2 seconds to do it).
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] :
Thanks, I never figured out what the trigger was, but I knew that pushing like hell all helped :)

[Xperia Z3 Compact General] shoey63:
Good stuff bro! Got D6653 Z3 23.5.A.0.575 working with this tool using your method. :D Another pull request to iovyroot is starting on it's way . . . . .
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Dadovvv:
So there is also possible way to use this metod on D6603 ?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] salva93:
Hi,,

this work with .238 firmware?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] shoey63:
The kernel offsets need to be added to the iovyroot binary first.

238 can only be flashed through twrp, so you may as well add root and recovery then.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] salva93:
I ask This because i'm on beta program of Sony, but beta is finished and now i'm waiting for official rollout for new update, then if i want now to install a custom rom i need to install the Last official relase and i can use This method or could be possible to root 238 firmware?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] shoey63:
The folllowing Z3C firmwares are supported by this tool:-

D5803 Z3C 23.4.A.1.264

D5803 Z3C 23.5.A.0.575

SO-02G Z3C 23.1.B.1.197

Flash one of those ftf's with flashtool and exclude baseband. Then run the tool to get recovery and flash whatever rom you like, according to your bootloader status.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] OGSwank:

[Xperia Z3 Compact General] hairyrz:
Hi just wondering if someone would be so kind as to recommend a supersu.zip for a locked bootloader. I've managed to worry/confuse myself after reading about it going into patching boot image first and not being good for LB.

cheers
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] hairyrz:
Brilliant thanks mate, and thanks russel5!
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] gustavo_v:
Yes, in D6603 23.5.A.0.575, but you need a compiled binary with added offsets.

I have found that addresses, seem like D6653, but as i can't test, I don't added this to original project.

You need to add to offsets.c (copy D6653 and change model to D6603), compile, and test.

New stock rom release today.

i hope this tool can root it in soon.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] shoey63:
Good News and Bad News.

- Bad news is the vulnerability has been patched in the new release 23.5.A.1.291.

- Good news is new release still boots on 23.5.A.0.575 kernel.

- Soo . . . flash new 23.5.A.1.291 firmware with flashtool, then flash only the kernel from 23.5.A.0.575 firmware, reboot and run the tool to get root and recovery, then flash only the kernel from 23.5.A.1.291 firmware

- ????

- Profit!

- You will be rooted on latest firmware, even with locked bootloader, lmao.

Edit:

Here is a new iovyroot binary I have compiled. It needs to go in - Recovery_for_MM575 \files

I have added support for the following 23.5.A.0.575 firmwares

- D5833 (Tested and working)

- D6633 (Tested and working)

- D6653 (Tested and working)

- D6603 (Tested and working)

[MENTION=4688377]russel5[/MENTION], is it Ok if I make a thread about this in Z3 forums?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] DeusEx80:
Thanks for the info :)

How to flash only the kernel? I have the .575 and the .291 ftf firmware.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] shoey63:
Put a [X] (left click) in all the boxes except Kernel. Also, leave "Wipe" boxes blank.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] russel5:
No problem
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] MechaBouncer:
I'm assuming this means that root access won't survive the OTA update, then? Is 23.5.A.1.291 worth the update?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] DeusEx80:
Yesterday I flashed the 23.5.A.1.291 firmware (from 23.4.A.1.264) with flashtool (no wipe), then only the kernel of 23.5.A.0.575 firmware, ran the tool to get root and recovery, flashed from recovery supersu 2.76 systemmode and xposed v86 sdk23.

At the end i flashed only the kernel of 23.5.A.1.291 firmware (with flashtool).

All works perfectly! :)

Thanks for the great work .
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] shoey63:
Updates contain improvements, bugfixes (often 100's) and more up to date security, so they are always worth having.

OTA updates only work on unmodified /boot, /system and /FOTAKernel.

If you don't have a pc for flashing ftf's, just wait for someone to post a pre-rooted zip.

I'm not a fan of reinstalling everything every time a new version of firmware comes out. I'm finally getting things the way I like them now that I have root again. I'm not keen on doing it all over again.

Hi shoey63

May this procedure above be done on D5803 (Z3C), following the exact steps shown? By the way, mine is already on .291.

Tks beforehand.

C-ya!
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] cowboyv:
I'm getting an error saying "ADB server version (32) doesn't match this client (36)" before autokill kicks in. Any one else has encountered this?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] shoey63:
The tool already had support for D5803, so yes.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Depump:
Do you have stock kernel.575 ?

i can't download old fw for xperifirm T_T
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] DeusEx80:
I noticed that into recovery, the smartphone become warm and i have a strong battery drain.

Cpu frequency at max?

Any solution?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] shoey63:
The recovery uses the kernel that comes with the rom, so only solution is to get in, do what you need to do, then get out ASAP.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] petr232:
Yes, you probably forgot to close Flashtool like me. But even after closing it the .bat tool probably won't work (at least for me didn't, it shows errors and the phone won't reboot to TWRP) so you'll just need to do a factory reset and then it should be fine.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] DeusEx80:
Ok, thanks for the explanation.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] casouzaj:
Unfortunately, it's not working for D5833!

EDIT: Really sorry for the false alarm! I'd spoken too soon. It's working perfectly in my D5833. The faulty piece was me. I had forgotten to flash the 575 kernel beforehand.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] shoey63:
Thanks for the confirmation. I will edit my post to 'tested and working ' for D5833
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] :
One question: why is it necessary to flash full firmware and then flash back old kernel? Isn't it possible to flash 291 Firmware without Kernel at the beginning and therefore keep 575 Kernel and root from before?

Gesendet von meinem GT-P5210 mit Tapatalk
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] shoey63:
Yes, you are right. If you are already on 575 then that would be the most efficient way.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] drewbar2:
Hello in my case I've already flashed the 291 firmware without excluding the kernel of 575 :( (flashed the fw when I first saw it in xperifirm, haven't read the solution for D5833 beforehand ). I just wanna ask if you can provide me the kernel for 575 so I can flash it. I have no copy of the old ftf. Thank you.

Can I use other countries' firmware for that? My country is not on the list (PHL) of the stock 575 firmware for D5833. Thanks
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] petr232:
I guess the kernels will be same... I flashed .261 IT and then .575 kernel CE1 and no issues.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] shoey63:
Correct . Kernels are all the same, regardless of region. Only variations are between device models.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] drewbar:
Hello I've already downloaded the .ftf for 575 (current fw is .291), now on the flashtool on the EXCLUDE box I will need to tick ALL except KERNEL or/and FOTAKERNEL? Thank you.

Keep Kernel only!

Thanks a lot!

Anyone tried to update a rootet 575 by that proceedure to 291? How to exactly set the flashtool? Only exclude "KERNEL" all other parts keep like usual?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] casouzaj:
If you're coming from the 23.5.A.1.291 ROM, you have to tick ALL the EXCLUDE checkboxes, including the TA ones, except the kernel one, from the 23.5.A.0.575 ROM. Only the kernel.sin file should show in Flashtool's window.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Eule1408:
I started Windows with advanced start options like described in this thread http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/2294-advanced-startup-options-boot-windows-10-a.html

Afterwards it worked for me.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] :
Thanks. But my intention is the other way around. Comming from the rooted 575, I plan to flash everything from the 291 ftf except the kernel. So the kernel from 575 should stay as is - rooted with recovery.

Gesendet von meinem D5803 mit Tapatalk
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] casouzaj:
Ah, ok. I had misunderstood you. In this case, tick to exclude the kernel checkbox only, when flashing the 23.5.A.1.291 ROM.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] drewbar2:
Thank you for your help, already rooted my device.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] drewbar:
Hello, I just wanna ask if I can still flash the Xposed installer after I've rooted my device and flashed the .291 kernel. Thank you.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] shoey63:
Do that and you will lose root. The 575 kernel does not contain root and recovery. it is used to get access to /system due to a security vulnerability. Root and recovery is all done on the /system partition. Once achieved, it has served it's purpose and stock 291 kernel can be re-flashed without losing root or recovery.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] :
Oh, that's new infomration. So if I do that I need to re-root with the 575 Kernel next top the 291 ROM, and after rooting again I can flas the 291 kernel afterward.

Proceedure (Starting from rooted 575)

- Flash 291 excluding KERNEL

- reboot

- Re-Apply root proceedure (TWRP, SUPER SU...)

- reboot

- Flash 291 kernel

- reboot

- enjoy rooted 291 FW

correct?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] petr232:
Any idea what could happen if I didn't tick the TA checkboxes (when flashing both 575 and then 291 kernels)? So far everything seems to be OK...

Thanks for confirming my initial thoughts, some of the recent posts really confused me, but it's clear now that there's only 1 right way - 291 full -> 575 kernel -> root -> 291 kernel (or if you are already on 575 you can save 1 step by excluding kernel when flashing 291, but the root won't be preserved).
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] shoey63:
That's it:good: And [MENTION=7465598]petr232[/MENTION] you're all over it as well ;)
