Thanks for replying. I have searched about this ODM patch file. I couldn;t find it. Please send me the link. And how to install it? Should I install before installing the rom from twrp or after installing the rom? Is it a zip file or some coding thing? I have no idea. I have been installing custom roms on many devices but this is the first time I have been facing this issue. Hope you will resolve this. Thank you.

Can I install the ZIP file "SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_N_MR1_4.4_v03_tone. img. raw. zip" via TWRP-Install?

I don't understand your answer!
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] iXaidyiu:
No, you can only push it using the command lines with a PC.

hey guys sorry for my english. i am flashing rom but not waitting white sony logo very long time, please help me how to fix.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Eifelrunner:
Thank you for your quick answer

But I don't know anything about adb, I've never used it before.

I like CarbonRom she, use it on the following devices Xperia Z1 Z2 Z2 Z2 tray + Z5.

Now I bought an XZ and can't install the Rome since version 20171018. I just don't have a detailed instruction or a flowchart how to get the new version of CarbonRom on the XZ.

I am very good with the TWRP and the fast boat.

Can someone help me decide which commands to use?

I have the following files:

CARBON-CR-5.1-MOO-RELEASE-kagura-20171018-0459. zip

SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_N_MR1_4.4_v04_tone. zip (from Sony website)

SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_N_MR1_4.4_v04_tone. img (from Sony website)

SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_N_MR1_4.4_v03_tone. img. raw. zip

open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20171005. zip

SuperSU-v2.82-201705271822. zip

I would proceed as follows:

1. TWRP - Wipe

2. TWRP - Install CARBON-CR-5.1-MOO-RELEASE-kagura-20171018-0459. zip

3. TWRP - Power Off

4. Start XZ in Fastboot mode

5. fastboot. exe flash oem SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_N_MR1_4.4_v04_tone. img

6. fastboot. exe reboot (complete)

7. power off

8. TWRP - Install open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20171005. zip

9. TWRP - Install SuperSU-v2.82-201705271822. zip

Would that work?

Can't use Fingerprint in this rom?:confused:
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] iXaidyiu:
I can use, but the sensitivity is very low.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] mcchung:
But I can't even delete the fingerprint I set before. Is it normal?:(
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] :
Basically, all steps except for 4,5,6 and 7 are ok.

before explaining what you need to do, though, a disclaimer:

I am not responsible for any mistakes or typos in the steps mentioned below. Before running any commands, make sure to double check and consult your common sense.

So, here are the steps you need instead of step 4,5 and 6:

4. PC (preferably with a linux OS) - simg2img SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_N_MR1_4.4_v04_tone. img SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_N_MR1_4.4_v04_tone. raw

5. TWRP - adb push SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_N_MR1_4.4_v04_tone. raw /sdcard/

6. TWRP - dd if=/sdcard/SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_N_MR1_4.4_v04_tone. raw of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/oem

7. well, nothing really, just go to 8 :P

How To Install This Rom ?
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] iXaidyiu:
1. Download the ROM onto the phone

2. Unlock bootloader

3. Flash custom recovery and reboot into it

4. Wipe System, Data, Cache, Internal Storage

5. Flash the ROM
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] LeonardoJS11:
Wiped System,Data, Cache (without wiping Storage)

Flashed the rom and after that flashed Gapps(Aroma) I got an error and when I boot up the phone it keeps stuck on sony logo
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] iXaidyiu:
Wipe storage too and install gapps stock.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Marco20:
I guess the oem thing is missing, please look at the both post a both your original post, there should be all information how to install the oem partition via fastboot
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Steelsmasher:
I've just flashed the latest version (20th November release) and it boots up fine, but when I go back to TWRP to flash gapps it asks for a password. Even though I did not manually enable encryption at all. I've tried flashing gapps right after carbonrom but the system doesn't boot in that case.

Does anyone know a way round this or know how to disable encryption?
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] iXaidyiu:
Format /data.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] frdky:
What about Oreo (8.0) version?
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Myself5:
IDK, what about it?
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] iXaidyiu:
I think he means Carbon ROM 6.0 which is based on Android Oreo.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] schrodares:
Carbon-cr-6.1

[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oleskool:
Hey. how are you guy doing. I am new to this and have a few questions. I feel the need to give some background. I am thinking of trying to cut the cable cord to save some cash.

1. Am I just going to be trading one bill for another equal bill?

2. I am thinking about going for the gusto and purchasing the Nvidia Shield Tv Because I have prime and it is supported. Is that a mistake?

3. I watch a few channels in my cable line up. HGTV, News stations, BET, Nat Geo, OWN network, and my local stations. I also like sports. Are these available and cost effective for this platform?

4. Can I DVR programs?

5. I have not played games in years, but I loved games like Metal Gear Solid, Hit Man, Tomb Raider. My hands are not good enough for the faster games anymore. Will I be able to play those and are emulators available?

Those are my concerns. Thanks for any help.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradleyw801:
1. That all depends on you. You can add as many things as you want, and go well past your cable bill. Without knowing how much you are paying for cable, or what streaming services you are planning on getting, no one would know. But I will say, without spending a penny on a subscription, the shield can provide you plenty of entertainment.

2. Prime has a decent selection of entertainment. If you like their video on demand offerings, then you may be very satisfied. Their app works fine on SATV.

3. You will never get good live sports without some sort of subscription. And for most of these channels, you will need a cable log in. However, there are plenty of alternatives for things in the same genre's available on things like Netflix. If you want a free option, then Pluto TV is a good place to find certain shows that are similar to what you would find on those channels.

4. There are ways to get it working, but judging by the level of experience you are showing here, it's going to be tough.

5. Yes, it has many tomb raider games, you have paid options, and free options, but if you are into emulators, you should have more than enough gaming.

I think you might need to do more research into what the Shield is. It's just an android box. Your individual experience will vary widely depending on what you install on it. Out of the box, it won't be doing much of anything. Hope that makes sense.

First, i hope this thread is in the right section. Onto the problem, since i bought the phone (h840) i have been using the gboard app since i am coming from a nexus and i am used to it. But since day one it's been crashing left and right every day. No obvious trigger, just randomly. Even after updates, cache cleaning, reinstalling and every presumable fix. Does anyone have the same issue ?

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] sweendiggler:
Hello Everyone,

I'm having an issue with my new Pixel where after being on for a few hours, auto-rotation on the screen becomes extremely laggy. It will take up to 30 seconds for the screen to rotate when I change the phone from portrait to landscape or vice-versa. A reboot resolves the issue each time, so I don't think that it's hardware.

I really don't want to go through the process of setting up another phone, so exchanging it isn't at the top of my to-do list. Has anyone experienced and fixed this issue successfully?

Thanks!

hello people... i have just gone thru just about every rom there is for my atom in this forum... but i was wondering if the legendary rom makers here on the atom thread could make a very simple "VANILLA" rom? like just plain htc or o2 apps themes and splashscreens... and just let us "rom leechers " install our own cabs and stuff...

just a thought...

totally no 3rd party apps...

that kinda gives the you rom makers,a lot less to think about,regarding what to put and stuff...

Hi there,

long story short - I do want to root my Bravia tv. I don´t know really why it hasn´t been done by someone already ^^"

In most cases there would be 1000 of questions and threads for this theme, but my internet search didn´t help at all.

Now I am trying to get all information I need to accomplish my task.

-On the tv is android 6.0.1 installed.

-adb connections are useable and i can read write in every folder except the system ones, which I need for the superuser installation

-through adb I could restart into recovery mode, but without TWRP I can´t install the superSU, which I need to get the rights to do all I want with the operating system

For ones I want to accomplish this based on the pure interest in android development. For seconds to use my tv like I want it to:)

I have 4k files which I can play through an usb 3.0 hdd without stuttering, but when I do the exact same with an wlan (ac) or lan connection I always get stuttering.

The lan port only transmits at 100mbits and I need gigabit lan. I don´t understand either, why the "ac" connection don´t work smoothly as I would expect.

Because I dont want to connect the tv to an usb hdd, but my NAS (Zyxel 520) I searched for other ways to accomplish my task.

On this search I found a forum where a user tried to use a usb 3 to gigabit lan adapter with the RTL8153 chipset, but couldn´t get it working because the tv

needed root rights to activate the device under android. That´s what I am trying to accomplish by this thread.

The link to the mentioned forum thread is: h**ps://community.sony.at/t5/android-tv/wie-gigabit-lan-nachrusten-bei-sony-kdl55w755c/td-p/2256204/page/2"]https://community.sony.at/t5/android-tv/wie-gigabit-lan-nachrusten-bei-sony-kdl55w755c/td-p/2256204/page/2

My skills can be regarded as pro and I am a fast learner. I do work as developer in the java (android) sector. I would appreciate every help, link, suggestions that would make my idea of a rooted android tv

reality and share the results here with everyone else:)

I hope some people are interested and we can start to get to work:)
[Android Stick & Console Computers General] futureshock:
Hi, i've the same TV as you... but didn't thought about rooting it for now...

from what i understand we need an unlocked bootloade first... so basically what you can try is, in an adb reboot in bootloader and then try to unlock the bootloader

fastboot oem unlock

probably this will not work anyway...

I need to root this Bravia Tv

I know nothing about software (only to use what you make).

And I am looking for something to root my Bravia. Why? Because use a 256Gb USB dribe on it, but I can not download things direct to the that USB because say is read only. But I can access to it (write and read) using MLUSB Mounter. But if I try to use any torrent client, can not write directly to the USB. Yes to another USB I formated for the TV, but no for that one. And that one can not be format by the Tv. Maybe because of the size (256Gb). I upgra de SO from Android 7 to Android 8 (Oreo). It is better, but still can not use the USB the way I want.

I have Xbr-55X850D Bravia running 7.0 . How did you upgrade to Oreo as I couldn't find that on Sony site. Well wanted to root it. Is there a way to hook my comp up to it. I used Remote Adb on my phone and wanted to unlock bootloader . I rebooted into bootloader , the screen then turned gray . I tried fastboot flashing unlock . I then tried fastboot oem unlock . The screen stayed same . I tried fastboot reboot . Then it dawned on me , since I was using IP address , then it might not have connection wirelessly. I tried unplugging tv waiting for a while then plugged in and turned on . The Sony logo pops up then screen goes gray . Think it's stuck in bootloader mode . Is there a way to connect my PC or Android phone with a cable and run Adb ? Oh and did someone make a TWRP for this ? I've downloaded the firmware for the tv and as last resort will try it on USB drive to restore.

1. Unlock the boot loader with the instructions / app from Asus

2. Download TWRP. Specifically twrp-3.1.0-0-Z01H-20170408.img ** [edit: also rename to twrp.img once downloaded]

4. Reboot to fastboot by rebooting the phone, and pressing the down arrow during the unlock screen.

5. Flash the recovery image `fastboot flash recovery twrp.img`

6. I had to power cycle the phone completely to get TWRP running.
