If you have rooted and installed a custom rom for the z3c then I'm actually surprised you asked for a guide to unlock the bootloader :confused: You probably would have known the methods were the same.. Installing a custom rom ie CM, ResurrectionRemix, etc.. requires an unlocked bootloader...
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] DaLioS Hellas:
Propably my phone came with unlocked BL. I bought it from ebay / China. Didnt follow a process to unlock it at all. Also as i said, i always go by the guide.

https://xdaforums.com/z3-compact/general/recovery-root-mm-575-lb-t3418714

This guide requires unlock BL?
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] AndyPhoenix9879:
That guide doesn't need it, it says LB (locked bootloader). What a purchase though... Guess I'll have to update the thread with a more clear instruction.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] DaLioS Hellas:
Cause i confused with how the man who made the guide that you gave me thinks. Can you please put this steps in better '' shape ''

1.: Go to the folder where Flashtool is installed. Usually C:/Flashtool

2.: Open the folder named "Custom"

3.: Open the folder named "Mydevices" (if it exists, in my case Flashtool version 0.9.18.4) (You may create if it doesnot)

3b.: In the newer Flashtool, you need to put the folder in "C:\Users\<username>\.flashTool\registeredDevi ces" in step 3.

That is, if you've picked the default for your flashtool home folder or you can choose manually.

4.: Create A New Folder and Rename the folder with your device code. Refer to Obs2 how to find your device code

5.: Open the folder created previously

6.: Create a new text file and rename it as ulcode

7.: Paste your unlock code and save it in the text file

8.: Open Flashtools and try the BLU option again.

In step 3b he wants us to put mydevices inside registered devices? In step 4 where we create the file? Step 5 which folder is this? Finally step 6 we rename is as '' ulcode '', or ulcode is refering to something else? Thank you once again.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] AndyPhoenix9879:
Wait, sorry I just realized this is the old method :silly: The new one is easier - http://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/unlock-yourboot-loader/ Just use Sony's one. Also anymore helps you need I think it's better to just pm me.

Overclocked CPU are there but when select the 1.6GhZ it automatically selects 1.1GHZ in kernal auditor. So cannot get the highest clock speeds :confused::confused:
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] AndyPhoenix9879:
Thermal throttling. Tune the Thermal settings a bit.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] kpbs92:
Okay I'll try that :good::good:
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] valyo_bg:
I just try new kernel v5 but it not working - Sony logo appear and then phone is turned OFF. Also there is no different kernels for different models of M4, only one image file. I'm back on v3 now. Keep up good work, we are waiting for v5 :) .
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] m.Sony Xperia S:
hey bro... I flash the new version (V5) on E2312... sadly my phone reboot after show Xperia LOGO and Off :((
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] jokerv489:
good evening.

After flashing the kernel phone may not work with 64GB sd card error writes to format that it is possible to create one?

Sorry for my English
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] AndyPhoenix9879:
It's unified. Very weird though - for the same variants, some works some doesn't. Have you tried a clean install?
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] valyo_bg:
What you mean with clean install? Kernel was installed via TWRP as usual. Should I try to clear cache and dalvic before installation? At the moment I use v3 of kernel.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] AndyPhoenix9879:
Backup your data, wipe system, and data and try again
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] valyo_bg:
I try with wiping of cache and dalvik, but still same problem - Sony logo appear and then my phone is turned OFF.

I will not wipe data and system to avoid data loss. Is there is other way to test new kernel?
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] dagger1:
V5 is working fine on my e2306. Thanks for your work! This is hands down one of the best development projects for this phone.

BTW, i tried faux's thermal agan and had no issue with it either.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] kpbs92:
Everything is ok, but the battery seems to be draining faster even in the power save mode
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] Dish76:
V5 is working fine on my e2312. Thanks for your work!
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] AndyPhoenix9879:
You can backup those data using TWRP into the sdcard where the system and data wipe will not affect at all. Later on, you can restore those data back.

How many screen hours time?
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] valyo_bg:
Same result - Sony logo appear for one second and then phone is going OFF.

What I did:

1. Create backup of System, data, cache, dalvik and Android secure

2. Wipe system, data, cache, dalvik and Android secure

3. Install kernel v.5

4. Reboot phone

5. Sony logo appear for 1 second and phone going off again

6. Restore system, data, cache, dalvik and Android secure

7. Reboot phone (still with kernel v.5)

8. Sony logo appear for 1 second and phone again goes off

9. Install back old kernel v.3 and reboot phone

With kernel v.3 no problems at all.

So what to do? Seems that kernel v.5 is smallest then kernel v.3 with around 10MB. My phone is dualism E2363 with Android 6.01 version 26.3.B.0.131.

If somebody can confirm successful installation of kernel v.5 with E2363 phone?
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] nrokos:
Is it supposed to be only 16mb? Previous versions of the kernel are atleast 22mb. Try re-uploading it, maybe that can fix some problems
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] valyo_bg:
Kernel v.5 already was downloaded several times, but size is still 16.5MB. Unfortunately this not resolve the problem.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] dagger1:
Are you installing by flashing in TWRP? Shouldn't reallly make a difference, but if so, try flashing with flashtool (the way it says in the instructions).
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] GeXeH:
v5 is working great for me! Best kernel yet. E2303
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] AndyPhoenix9879:
Yes it is supposed to be 16mb, the dtb is integrated into the kernel image (to allow the overclocking). I guess it might be the overclocking... I'll try to release another one without the overclocking on Sunday.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] game.tikboy:
I have E2363 here and managed to make it working.

I was testing few kernels lately, first i tried the skymelon v4a but I noticed that my phone's having an issue with microphone.. so I suspect it was that kernel causing the problem. Then I tried the foykernel (the latest), flashed it using cmd. but recently this day i tried the skymelonv5, but i flashed it using TWRP. I never did a wipe on my data or dalvik cache throughout my process.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] valyo_bg:
You are lucky man :) . Which version of firmware you have Installed on your phone?
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] game.tikboy:
see the attachment I added to my last post :)
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] valyo_bg:
Thank you for the information, seems that you have newer version of firmware, mine is 26.3.B.0.131 and yours is 133. If problem can be related to the different versions of firmware? I will try first to apply v.4a kernel and then to install v.5 like you do, hopefully I will have success.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] game.tikboy:
Yeah may be because of the firmware. And some additional info, first and second attempt of flashing v5 using cmd was failed, i got bootloops. but earlier i installed the deodexed patch from here https://xdaforums.com/m4-aqua/development/m4-aqua-26-3-1-33-deodex-patch-t3552120

then tried to flash v5 using TWRP, then got succeed. Hope you the best pal, Good Luck.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] valyo_bg:
I install deodexed patch but still no luck with kernel v.5. I don't know what to do.

If it's possible to download firmware 26.3.B.1.33 on SD card and install it via TWRP? Also how to avoid data loss after installing of new firmware? If I restore only "data" from my previous TWRP backup after installing of new firmware, if this will keep all my data and apps back?
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] game.tikboy:
The only way to install new firmware is to flash it using flashtool (afaik). And when flashing using flashtool, to prevent losing your data you can exclude wipe data. But I wont recommend doing that for it may cause some issues or force closes in your apps. Regarding with restoring your data only using TWRP from previous backup, of course it'll restore the data but same goes with it, it may cause app crashes. but chances are too low.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] valyo_bg:
Thank you for advice, maybe I will update firmware to version 26.3.B.1.33 .
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] valyo_bg:
So, new firmware 26.3.B.1.33 is installed and kernel v.5 is working just perfect! Thank you for advices, seems that v.5 of kernel work ONLY with latest firmware of E2363 :) .
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] aejun:

Bootloop for my 2303

Hi, just to say that installing this kernel on my 2303 (26.3.A.1.33 firmware with twrp and rooted, Bootloader Unlocked) I had a wonderfull bootloop, I had to flash again the boot in fastboot mode to get my phone back to life.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] valyo_bg:
Did you clear cache and dalvik before installation? First boot after installing of new kernel takes time.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] advancel:
sony logo and off me too i was did wipes e2303 26.3.a.133
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] Luumumba:
just a tip. I deactivated 2 of the small cores, and overclocked the remaining ones. greatly improves standby time and screen on time. performance is nearly the same.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] AndyPhoenix9879:
Hopefully everyone who had trouble with booting v5 should be able to boot with the latest v5a now. Nothing much new : just a minor update (hence the "a" in v5a).
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] valyo_bg:
Latest kernel v5a work good, no problem with installation and booting :) . Thank you for new version.

[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] AndyPhoenix9879:
Are you blaming me for that? Nice.

Have you tried formatting the sdcard to some other formats? But before doing that, backup your data in the sdcard to somewhere safe (the computer)
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] Luumumba:
after having problems with v5a and battery life, I flashed original firmware and then v5a now everything works great.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] valyo_bg:
I also has problem with battery life with kernel v.5a. Now I'm back to v.5 and everything with battery life is OK.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] AndyPhoenix9879:
Maybe the battery stat from GSAM battery could've help me - is it during usage or standby?
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] game.tikboy:
for me the usage is okay, I get almost 3hrs of screen-on-time. The standy is quite the problem, it drains battery with no background apps running.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] AndyPhoenix9879:
3hrs sot is kinda bad lol - I'm getting around 4-5hrs sot. As for the standby, try going into /sys/module/lazyplug and deactivating it (for me though, I'm having no problem with the standby - 1 or 2% drain overnight)
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] lynksus:
Hello, it is the first thing I did and only recognizes the microsd in fat32 format and not in exfat that is by default and that I use because I can put files of more than 4 gb in size and in fat 32 it can not, the kernel looks good although I could not prove much, if you could correct that detail would be better
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] ictsz.roy:
Do you have img file of the stock kernel that i can go back to ?

Hi, I need help to obtain a Marshmallow ROM upgrade for my telstra zte t81. It throws up the odd error about sha256 not supported. It's probably boost's problem and not the device as a test on the digicert site seems to confirm that it does support sha256 certificates and paypal works fine.. So I thought it may be able to beat the problem by getting a Marshmallow ROM upgrade. The working-tutorial-how-to-updateupgrade_85 on the recordnewtech blogspot has roms but the ad links defeat me. The phone appears to be rooted. Can someone please assist me with getting a rom upgrade that doesn't have these ad links?

okay.. after trying to install twrp using odin on my note 5 sm-n902i. phone works normally but im getting a message "recovery is not seandroid enforcing" when trying to boot into recovery. Phone is rooted as well.
[XDA Assist] Razvan:
Hi there and welcome to Assist,

The seandroid message normally means you have a custom recovery installed.

Can you enter download mode or recovery mode at all ? If you can get into download mode flashing the latest firmware for your device with Odin will fix your issue.

A client brought in her phone (S4-i337) that was in recovery mode, at first i thought it was something simple but not really. At first i did a wipe data but it couldn't boot up instead after rebooting, it went back to recovery mode. Surprisingly, this phone boots up normally when you try to boot to download mode. As in, when i press Volume down + Home + Power, instead of it going to download mode, it boots up fully then i happen to use it for until when I restart it. I've updated it to Android 5 using some file that i found on some forum, thought it would help but same case. Members, am out of ideas on what i should do. I've flashed it with Z3X box, but i also get an error, same as Odin. Any help is highly appreciated

Hi there,

After i flashed OOS 4.0 its saying that i have not installed an sim card.

i have twrp and supersu installed on my device. its kinda strange because a friend of my has the same device and also flashed OOS 4.0 and does not have this problem.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] m0d hipp¥:
Can you go into settings --> about --> IMEI info and see if your IMEO is displaying properly there.

If it is, go back to settings --> mobile networks and make sure your APN settings are correct in there.

What is your service provider? If your friend's phone/OS/settings are the same and he is on the same carrier as you try copying his APN settings to make sure they match yours.

Otherwise, it might be a faulty sim tray or sim card. Have you tried ejecting the sim card and cleaning out the contact? Then try pushing it back in and make sure it's seated properly. SOmetimes the sim card moves and when you slide the sim tray in it isn't contacting the contacts properly. After you do that reboot your phone.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] BeyondRico:
I tried to put my simcard in his phone and it's immediately asking for my sim cards pincode. and we both have no apn settings its receiving them automatically.

when i go back to OOS 3.5.4 its working just fine.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] m0d hipp¥:
That's odd... So it's not a hardware fault, it's definitely something with software... Are you flashing the stock 4.0 rom from op site or from somewhere else?

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] m0d hipp¥:
Try this:

NOTE: This WILL wipe everything on your phone so make a backup first!

First Unlock booloader​

1. On your phone go into Developer screen (Settings --> Developer Options)

If you don't have this go back to Settings --> About Device. Tap "Build number" 7-10 times to unlok developer options

2. In Developer Options turn on "USB Debugging" and "OEM Unlock"

3. Open ADB in command prompt and go to the directory where ADB is.

Type adb reboot bootloader

4. Once your device is in fastboot mode, type in fastboot devices to make sure your device is listed

5. Type in fastboot oem unlock to unlock your device bootloader

You can check to make sure it was properly unlocked by typing in fastboot oem device-info.

6. Reboot into your system

Files we need​

7. Download the following files:

TWRP - https://build.nethunter.com/test-builds/twrp/oneplus/twrp-3.0.2-0-oneplus3t.img

No-verity-opt-encrypt - https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/no-verity-opt-encrypt/no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.0.zip

Magisk - http://tiny.cc/latestmagisk

Phh-Superuser - https://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3988488&d=1483407725

Latest Stable Nougat Rom - http://otafsc.h2os.com/patch/amazon...s3TOxygen_28_OTA_035_all_1612310259_2dc0c.zip

8. Copy all the files to your phone (keep the original on your pc just in case)

9. Load back up to fastboot mode

In ADB type adb reboot bootloader

10. Flash twrp img we downloaded above by typing

fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-oneplus3t.img

11. After this reboot into the system

Install all of our downloaded files through TWRP​

12. Now boot into recovery by issuing the following ADB command

adb reboot recovery (you should go into TWRP)

13. Once you're in twrp flash the "no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.0.zip" file OR you can format the data partition to f2fs to prevent the dm-verity error.

14. Now install the stock stable nougat rom we downloaded above

15. Do a factory system wipe / cache & dalvik

16. Install magisk through TWRP

17. Wipe cache/dalvik

18. Install phh SuperUser

19. Now reboot into the system normally.

NOTE: This *COULD* take a while since you did a clean install of nougat so just be patient and you should be good to go after this.

im using my op3t quite a while now including flashing different recoverys and performing several factory resets .. ive had never such an issue yet but strangely today i had the same issue like you.

i didnt changed anything at all (just did a normal factory reset because of the new twrp beta1 for encryption) - as the notification appeared i just rebooted and everything was fine again (like before) .. maybe your sim card is not in a good position in the simcard slider? i dont think that this is a software issue because it dissapeared for me without any changes on software.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] geovadim:
I have a problem with my Kaiser. The keyboard and the front buttons do not work anymore. Only the center front button and the right side stand-by button are working.

I read here on the forums that it can be a software problem? I didn't made any rom update or other chages, I used the phone as it was from the start. After 2 months of using I got this problem with the keyboard. Any advice or should I get the phone to the Service?

I tried soft reset and after that a hard reset (I backed up the data with Sprite), but the problem persists.

Another thing: not making any changes in keys mapping I noticed that the right side stand-by button was mapped for voice recording! That was quite strange, when I activated the screen in the same time it began recording voice. I correctly remaped the button as it was, but again I don't know how it changed by itself...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] smittyofdhs:
when you did the hard reset, did you restore your backup right away? or did you test the buttons right after the hard reset?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] geovadim:
I've testet the buttons before making the restore. They had the same problem: not working and the stanby button was also mapped as voice recording. :confused:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] smittyofdhs:
after a hard reset the power button was set to voice recording? When you refer to the standby button, do you mean the power button?

If in deed you did a Hard Reset then the device would be back to default settings. If you are getting the power button mapped to voice recording then your device is f**ked up badly, or at least the ROM is trashed.

you sure you didn't try to flash your rom or SPL?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] geovadim:
No, after the hard reset the voice recording was still mapped... When I reffer to the stanby button I mean, yes, the power button.

Absolutely not! I am not a informatician to play with this kind on mods and installs. I only had my software (YM, iGo etc). Never tried to update or change the rom or the SPL.

If it is like you say, this it can't be repaired in the service?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] freebornman:
the same problem, but i have a little more strange things:

- device still mapping power (standby) button for voice commander, even after few hard resets without restoring any previous data

- holding power button mapped for record, so after hard reset, even before aligning screen, device starts recording

- when i'm on a desktop, pressing twice power button (off/on), device going to calling screen and trying to found contact that starts with "edfc"

- when i'm in contacts, pressing twice power button (off/on), device trying to found contact in search, that starts with "edfc"

- keyboard doesn't work, front buttons also too

- when i'm typing any message in notes, for example, i can't erase it - backspace button on virtual keyboard doesn't work also

So, what are you thinking about that? Can anyone help me?

Added:

- can't get into bootloader screen (power+camera+reset)

- in Android front buttons are works, keyboard - too, except 4 buttons. guess which? e,d,f,c

Added:

- re-flashing SPL and few ROM's doesn't help
