You are not in the right folder, that's why windows doesn't recognize rootkernel command. In the picture you are in C:\windows\system32\ not in rootkernel folder (eg. C:\users\metalkid75\Desktop\rootkernel\).

Thanks op for the thread !

Unfortunately, I can not make xposed work. My Phone enters in a boot loop, with either the install of the xposed framework from the apk or in twrp. It works wonderfully without it. I am writing to you with my phone right now. I've tried both the proposed kernel in op or mine coming from flashtools and the downloaded firmware from xperifirm.

Any clues ?

I'm on F5321, oreo 8.0. Xposed sdk26. Supersu 2.82, and the proposed twrp file.

Thanks !

In Flashtool, have you checked all the options inside the Wipe - Sin section ?

It's these options :

Also you need to boot in TWRP right after flashing your phone, then install the DRM .zip package which is complementary to the DRM fix from rootkernel method.

I know, not the most interesting topic, but it's been bugging me. Why do I have a green dot beside my name rather than a blue dot?

Twrp recovery*
[SuperSU] Robert342:
Ok, I did it alone. With this procedure you can root any MTK Device (maybe every Android device).

1. I download new Magisk Manager and Magisk zip installer.

2.I create patched boot image into Magisk.

3. Then I share patched boot image to my computer via USB cable (USB debugging into device must be enable of course) and turn off MTK device.

4. Next I unlocked bootloader via cmd windows console and install patched boot image in fastboot mode via the same way (cmd)

5. After that I turn on the device and installing Magisk zip package. And got root without any custom recovery.

Cheers.

[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] ikkefc3:
I have a question. When generally using the device, it randomly becomes very slow and the framerate of the interface (e.g. in the (stock or pixel) launcher or Chrome) drops to 5-10 FPS and after a few seconds all is normal again.

I have already tried to factory reset the devices to see if it fixed the app crashes.

Is this something that is normal on this device, or is there are certain setting that causes this? Is it maybe my specific device?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] XBladesMasterX:
I do experience the same behavior, at random moments fps on ui drop for less than a second and then it's smooth again. It doesn't affect functionality or raw benchmark performance but it is very annoying. I do not know yet what is causing it.

Wouldn't that ruin the camera forever?

My guess is that this is happening due to the fact that this is the first non Google device to have Android O so the optimization is mediocre. At least it's not like the s8 lel
[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] ikkefc3:
I must say that switching from the built in (Swiftkey) keyboard to Gboard made some difference. It stutters less now.

And yes, I'm probably spoiled coming from a Google device. Android 8.1 will probably make some difference too, as it is a lot smoother than 8.0.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] XBladesMasterX:
Weird, swiftkey never stuttered on mine
[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] ikkefc3:
Swiftkey itself doesn't stutter, but it somehow makes other things (occasionally) stutter.

You probably wouldn't notice it if you don't hyper actively mash on your device.

Very intresting, I also noticed the same thing about chrome, when I disabled it and started using brave the stuttering was way less. Perhaps using brave and Gboard would be a solution?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] AbrarZShahriar:
Prolly related to the Spectre and Meltdown patches
[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] XBladesMasterX:
Yes, this can be another reason aswell.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] ikkefc3:
It's probably not related to the spectre and meltdown patches, as other devices on the same patch level do not experience this problem.

The spectre and metldown patches take

It also doesn't happen in a specific app, and I know Chrome has some stuttering with some sites, but I am not talking about that.

Random apps seemed to freeze or lag for a few seconds and then everything goes back to normal.

I am thinking that it could be an issue with my specific device because Antutu benchmark also crashes for example and others seem to be able to run this benchmark.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] XBladesMasterX:
my device has micro stutter here and there (as said , doesnt affect functionality) but not being able to run antutu bench seems to be a specific device problem. In addition i can confirm that raw performance was not affected by spectre patch since my device scored a pretty high score on antutu, on par with other sd835 flagships.

Hey, after months I can confirm the cause for every stutter/lag/freeze on the device was caused due to swiftkey keyboard. I disabled it and started using Xperia keyboard and it's perfectly smooth.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] snake218:
Weird, never get any lag/freeze, and only use stock swiftkey. BTW how doy you get that score in AnTuTu? What firmware, are you rooted and/or use any tweak?
[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] XBladesMasterX:
The bench was done a while ago so I don't remember exact firmware number, but it was android 8.0 stock not rooted and locked bootloader. Also for best possible antutu score be sure your device is cool before doing the test (28-30c), keep in mind that score also varies around 5-10k each time, lowest I got was 200k and highest was 210k in antutu v7.

Originally bought ba locked P9 Lite over a year ago ...got my unlock code via DC unlocker ...all worked fine.

So I wanted to upgrade to a more recent version ...used firmware finder...unfortunately chose the wrong flavour of firmware & it's all gove very wrong since then.

I can get my phone working but can't remove the wrong version from updater...it's always now wanting to update to that version (which doesn't work). So I only have two options...

1. Live with the updater telling me that there's an update available (to the wrong version ...as chosen by me in formware finder)

2. Completely wipe my phone...but for this I need to unblock my bootloader...here's the thing, the code I got from DC Uulocker over a year ago doesn't appear to be working (get "wrong password" when I use the fastboot oem unlock command"

So to my question...does the bootloader unlock code change if/when changing (stock) roms?

If I pony up for some more DC Unlocker credits, will this get me out of my current predicament?
