Try flash the latest zip in twrp: https://www.chainfire.eu
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ApplepieFTW:
Hi,

I just unlocked the bootloader, and then I flashed the twrp recovery. I then booted to recovery, and succesfully saw the twrp recovery. I then flashed supersu.zip I had downloaded from the chainfire downloads page (UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip). It looked like it flashed just fine (from internal storage).

But now after I rebooted, I'm stuck on the Sony logo. Help. What do I do. Rebooting with power+vol up just brings it right back into the bootloop, and then it gets stuck. I am able to access the twrp recovery.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] realtuxen:
Hold to power button plus vol up until it reboots into flash mode (blue led, its possible I have been there) then fastboot flash the kernel again and flash latest supersu 2.79 zip instead: http://www.supersu.com/download

Edit: release power and press vol up a few times when it reboots and vibrates.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ApplepieFTW:
Alright thanks!!!

(I just realised I should've made a backup of everything as soon as I saw twrp boot the first time, but it's too late for that)

I'm doing this as we speak, but will flashing a different kernel really fix this boot-failure? (to be clear I'm currently on the stock kernel). Thanks again!!
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] realtuxen:
No flash the same kernel as you flashed before, supersu broke the boot image. That's why I am saying flash the androplus kernel again then a newer supersu. :)
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ApplepieFTW:
Oh right, you're the best. So tl;dr I'm actually an idiot.

I'll flash the kernel from the OP, but I'm looking for the stock kernel incase I ever need to revert.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] realtuxen:
I don't know with that spelling in my first edit lol.

Oh you can get that from MM ftf update file, there are still a few left on xperifirm. Just asking but I suppose that is what you are running since you flash this kernel? MM that is.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ApplepieFTW:
Yes I'm on MM. The FTF on Xperifirm isn't available for MM for my region, but you're saying that using the boot image from another (I've downloaded Commercial and Journalists (1305-9054) Firmware: 34.1.A.1.198 / R2B as an example) firmware will work just fine?
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] realtuxen:
Yes. The kernel should work fine, it does not contain any regional stuff.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] realtuxen:
BTW. [MENTION=6775371]ApplepieFTW[/MENTION] after flashing supersu 2.79 do not wipe dalvik/cache before reboot, it uses this partition to do it's initial magic stuff. But you probably figured things out. Also it's pretty easy to make a stock rootable kernel too that would remove root if factory reset, that is if root is what you are interested in.

EDIT: I don't know what kernel changes where made since .198 if any, but I would think getting one that fits your system version is preferable. The ftf's are not to hard to find around the net.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] SXUsr:
My new X Compact is getting delivered tomorrow so just getting getting everything ready to unlock the bootloader and get rooted. I've just extracted the kernel from 311 and those images are located at \ramdisk\res\images\warning, they could be edited to display something else.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] toeterbaas:
Wich rom does this work with? Does it work with a stock rom?
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] shafiq01:
If I provide a rooted kernel image with Sony ric and verity off with busy box and drm with latest stock version 34.2.A.0.311 tobias's latest tool v5.23 will you then be able to create a newer version of the recovery perhaps?

Only if needed! Maybe we can inbuilt fastboot format userdata and fastboot format cache commands here, because that bypasses the encryption he'll on nougat and let us mount stuff

Can't boot into TWRP

Hi guys,

I just installed TWRP from this thread, as I'm running the latest German version for our device, so I didn't want to install the patched kernel.

I can't get into recovery, regardless what I do. Even "adb reboot recovery" won't boot into TWRP.

The only thing I see is the warning that the device can't be trusted (as I unlocked the BL), but then it boots into the normal OS.

Any idea why this is?

Thanks for your help.

Kr,

Ralf
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] realtuxen:
Do you hold power and vol- when turning the phone on? (the info in OP about pressing vol up/down when led turns orange is not entirely correct) Have you tried booting it from pc? (fastboot boot twrp.img)
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ralfbergs:
Yes, this is exactly how I'm trying it...

I noticed that. I never saw an orange LED...

No, this I didn't try.

Just to make sure: The custom kernel is in no way related to the TWRP, right? So I can just flash and use this TWRP version, without having to use the kernel? Because I'm on a firmware build from April this year, so the kernel is probably much newer...
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] realtuxen:
No they are not related in that sense, you should be able to boot recovery even if the phone is completely empty. It has its own kernel. That is really odd!. :eek::confused:

Personally I booted it many many times, I have had it flashed like many others. But nowadays since I just use it to get root after updates, I just hotboot it with 'fastboot boot twrp.img' try that it should boot. If not although it seems absurd, have you tried booting another twrp?

---------- Post added at 14:36 ---------- Previous post was at 14:02 ----------

I'm guessing it could be a driver/flash issue. Otherwise I am pretty blank. :/
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ralfbergs:
Yes, that was also my understanding.

Doesn't work. :(

It uploads the file fine to the phone, but the screen stays blank, with the LED lit in "blue."

Yes, doesn't work either. :(

I don't think so. The device is recognized, and I don't get any errors. So I rule out any driver or flashing issues...

---------- Post added at 19:59 ---------- Previous post was at 19:00 ----------

I now tried a third TWRP flavor, and this one works!

But it's not persistent -- I can only boot into it once, afterwards it's gone... I seem to recall that I had this issue also with my Xperia XP (Huashan), so I will try to find out how to make it "stick"...

---------- Post added at 20:06 ---------- Previous post was at 19:59 ----------

Probably user error -- it does stick.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] realtuxen:
Yeah if it uploads fine and everything.

Weird I have heard people having trouble with writing to system with the androplus one, but never this. Personally I never experienced either.

Think we should stick to oshmoun's version as apparently there are more bugs in the androplus recovery.

Glad you got it working and shared your findings. :good:
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] realtuxen:
Now the plot thickens! I just updated to may security patch, and decided to try the above twrp to reroot.

But it does not work on my phone, it seems to start but the screen is black and the computer says I connected a different phone and it needs drives.. Switched back to androplus twrp and all is normal as usual. How freaking weird is that! lol

There must be small hardware changes between phones, when did you buy yours? I bought mine when it came out in sep (maybe oct) 2016. The weird thing is though people use oshmouns back then too. I dont get it. heh

And yes, I also had the thought already that there must be HW differences...
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] regentonne:
Did you come from .198 or did you just rooted .3.49?

'am going to buy XC... Did I get it right, that when I flash this kernel TWRP an SU, I get root? Everything will be done with flashtool, right?

I'm so looking forward getting new phone with root Oo

Anyone tried this kernel on 34.2 or 34.3? Does it work? If not, what kernel do you recommend? I'm planning on running stock rom, just want to replace the stock kernel with something supporting twrp...

/Daniel
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ch3mn3y:
It would probably boot 34.2, but many thing want work. However Im sure it won;t boot 34.3. It's to different.

As for what to use, there is POISON for 34.2, but there seems to be no kernel for 34.3...
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] DanielMalmgren:

/Daniel
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ch3mn3y:

Dl the Rom and flash only kernel. As Rom is stock based, kernel is modified stock too, than it should work with stock rom, right?

Mod your own using PoC or Root Kernel, it's easy enough to do these days.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] kekistaneerefugee:
Every time I use this kernel I get fido keys not provisioned and a suntory error. I have made non drm patched kernels with tapoc and rootkernel but neither work either. tapoc kernel isnt compatable with magisk and rootkernel will not allow dk.ftf to flash back original keys. Any way to get this kernel without drm patch or to manually remove it?
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ondrejvaroscak:
I was succesfuly using TA_POC and Kernel Repack tool in latest Firmware .238 stock kernel with Magisk without problem

TA_POC supports STOCK kernels only,you can not take AndroPlus kernel and run it through TA_POC tool...
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] kekistaneerefugee:
I was using .198 kernel extracted from xperifirm. I got it working by first running it through ta_poc and then through rootkernel and then it was bootable. With nougat kernel I was able to do it all with rootkernel but it didnt play well with the marshmallow one for whatever reason. All is good now, thanks

Hi,

After flashing android 7 I have only 10GB space instead of 24GB. I have 32GB version.

I guess the problem is because of that I flash it manually with factory image, but unfortunately I did it many times before I realised that I didnt flash vendor because of that system didnt boot.

I guess that there are these data on my card from first bad attempts. I used app Disk Usage but I just see current system but no more.

Now my android 7 working well, I rooted it again.

My question is if there is any way how to erase whole sd card and then flash new system again or something like that?

Thanks for any reply

edit reply: Have to do it through edit because I am new and I cant reply on my own post until I have 10 posts :)

Factory reset didn´t work still 10GB of space I did it in TWRP and ticked all except system

Flashall doesnt work in my case I had to flash factory image manually step by step that´s why I forgot to flash vendor.img and I did the flashing procedure many times which probably caused that I have only 10Gb now.

I have linux but I also tried it on windows computer with root toolkit and flashing a7 wasn´t work as well

I tried in fastboot erase partitions (cache, userdata, recovery, vendor, system, boot) and then I flashed A7 again but still 10GB :(

edit2:

tried it again and finally solved it :)
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stevica Smederevac:
I think i read somewhere that you need to do a factory reset and the full storage will return
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Yes, doing a factory reset will correct the memory issue. If you want to erase the whole thing and re-install everything the simplest way is to use the flashall batch file that comes with the factory image. Then do a factory reset from the stock recovery.

When you open the app drawer, there's a feature that can be enabled that pins "frequently used apps" in the top row. I know that when I downloaded Nova on this phone, it allowed me to choose which apps appeared in this row, and in which order. I distinctly remember picking them, and they are not the apps I use most often. I would really love to be able to change which apps are displayed here and I cannot figure out how. I've been through all of the settings, and the only thing I can find is a toggle for whether or not the row is shown at all.

I'm using Nova Prime on a Galaxy S7 Edge. Any help would be very much appreciated!

maybe just not the same registry entries? can somebody pls share which registry entries were changed by TOE's SMS Alert Fix for WM 2005?

After hard reset , and installing the ExtROM, I installed the SMSAlertFix, and it wakesup. And no problem.

Thenafter I install all the 3rd party softwares and test the SMSAlertFix, it is still working. No problem.

When I sync it with my PC and all my pim.vol data(contact,appointment,tasks etc) comes into my Hima, the SMSAlertFix stops working. It does not wakeup.

I checked the registry. There is a clash in [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{3AB4C10E-673C-494c-98A2-CC2E91A48115}] . This registry is for mapirule.dll. May be (my guess) is the cause for it to not work.

When the Hima is in powered off state, and the SMS arrives, the device should wake-up. That means the today screen should light-up. In Hima this is not happening by itself. Thats why people are trying to wake it up by adding fixex..Is it clear now..
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] paulpax:
I FOUND THE SOLUTION.

it is very simple really! i used the file below, i think it is the same with most SMS alert fixes out there.

BUT here is what you should do to HELP IT TO WORK:

If you have softwares the REALLY CLOSES applications when you press the X button, like "SPB Pocket Plus" or certain task managers thats included in C_shekhar ROM like "WKCLOSEOK" or anything that will really EXIT a program.

then

Please EXCLUDE "TMAIL.EXE", or add "TMAIL.EXE" to the exclusion so that it will not EXIT.

Trust me, i have tested this with my XDA on C_shekhar ROM 7.0C and it wakes up everytime now. Tested it for two weeks already, as long as tmail.exe is always alive in the background and will not close, the xda will wake up at each SMS.

heres the file i also used:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] c_shekhar:
Good! At least a round about solution is achieved.

What I understand is that SMS_alert__Fix shall work as long as the tmail.exe is running.

@paulpax

As I understand you have used a modified dll in the cab, cant you modify it to get rid of this tmail.exe always ON situation?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] paulpax:
@c_shekhar.

i dont know how to edit .dll files, or modify them. i only extensively test ROMs like yours, and somehow find workarounds to bugs.

as a history, xda was never made for landscape screens like ver 1.50, then 1.72 ROMs. but when WM2003SE came out, the SMS ALERT problem also started, back then, keeping TMAIL.EXE in the background was the only solution to wake the phone when SMS arrives. SO it is also today.

so whatever permanent DLL changes they made then to solve the SMS ALERT bug, could also be applied now. coz this is just a temporary solution, however i dont mind keeping tmail.exe in the background anyway. so i could keep it as a semi permanent solution.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] c_shekhar:
1. I got an impression from your first post that you have put in it a new dll. Thats why I requested for modification. Never mind...Bro!

2. No no.. . I cant say about 2003 or 2003SE but in WM5 the SMS_Alert_Fix didnot require the tmail to stay alive. The device used to wake-up without tmail.exe active. Any way thanks for showing a beam of light...
