So I figured out what to do but it didnt work on windows.

I booted Linux Mint, installed the Android Image kitchen and removed /system_ext from fstab as reported in the Magisk bug Tracker which ironically links this post as i believe OP is the person who discovered this?

Doing the instructions here failed every time. I still needed to remove the entry for /system_ext in fstab after patching boot.img with Magisk. They also asked for anyone with this issue to go back to the bug tracker to see if Magisk could put in a special hook for sony phones until sony creates a fix.

Getting a bootloop with US 58.1.A.5.55,

Tried patching the magisk boot.img with the changes to the fstab this time around with AIK on both Windows and Linux, but no dice.
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] Tjinn21:
Describe your steps in linux. AIK has a recompile issue on windows and a decompile issue on linux.
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] kippidashira:
1. Downloaded the 58.1.A.5.55 firmware using XperiFirm on Windows.

2. UnSIN'd the boot .sin, transferred over to Linux machine.

3. Downloaded and extracted AIK v3.8 on Linux.

4. Decompiled on Linux, edited the fstab, recompiled on Linux.

5. Transferred back to Windows 10 to flash using fastboot.

From what it sounds like your implying, I would need to decompile on Windows and recompile on Linux?
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] Tjinn21:
Yes but you need to transfer it to your phone to patch the edited fstab version with canary majisk BEFORE you flash it for root.
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] kippidashira:
Seems like I'm getting an Unsupported Format error when recompiling on Linux.

If it also helps out, I am also flashing my XQ-AT52 HK to XQ-AT51 US. This has been rooted/unlocked previously but I wanted to update to the latest patch.
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] Tjinn21:
What fixes did the latest patch bring? I can test it and let you know the steps?
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] kippidashira:
It is a March security patch. I had an issue with Wireless Charging on my previous version which I was looking to see if the latest patch would fix.
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] Tjinn21:
Ok let me Install linux on my macbook and ill get back here asap
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] Element-Z:
Great Thread, thanks for sharing your info.

Nevertheless I have not managed yet to get it working properly:

Android 11

58.1.A.5.159

Bootloop if I use the boot_X-FLASH-ALL-2389.sin with UnSin to create a boot.img for patching with Magisk v23.

Original boot.img from XQ-AT51_Customized EU_58.1.A.5.159-R17B works like a charm after flashing it back afterwards.

Also latest TWRP 3.4.0 for the device (at least that I have found) can't encrypt data, so I'm back to stock recovery at the moment as well.

I would appreciate anyone who already managed to create a working boot.img (and maybe recovery?) for Magisk use in this constellation and would like to share with us.

Edit:

Solution is here: https://xdaforums.com/t/kernel-stock-kernel.4225031/post-85003527

Root active now :)
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] kippidashira:
I fixed it! It was primarily my Magisk modules interfering. I was able to boot into safemode (Hold Volume Down at the Sony Logo) and remove my modules.

How I deduced it for anyone else who might run into this issue:

- Repacked Kitchen image worked, but Magisk patch did not work. That means my AIK was repacking correctly as far as I know.

- Every Magisk version I tried between v21-v23 failed.

- Many Regional ROM variants failed.

- Bootloop occurred after splash screen was about to finish.

Any for anyone with a wireless charging issue: Toggle off and on Battery Care, some reason it fixes it.
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] xda177:
I do as https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/issues/3752 said,

1. Patch 58.1.A.5.159 boot.img with magisk

2. use Image Kitchen and unpack boot.img

3. Locate fstab.qcom and edit with notepad++ remove the system_ext line and save

4. Repack and flash the new .img ,fastboot flash boot_a & boot_b boot.img

but there is also a bootloop ... so is there any solution to this issue？
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] palkos88:
Works like a charm. I have done all the steps, had bootloop + repaired the phone with Companion and have done another steps from here.

Here it is what I did after Miustone guide:

After patching the file with Magisk, DO NOT FLASH IT YET.

1. Download Android Image Kitchen (unpack all to common folder)

2. Paste the file boot_xxxxx.img (this one which you have already patched with Magisk)

3. Open unpackimg.bat

4. Open ramdisk folder.

5. Open fstab.qcom with notepad.

6. Find the word "system_ext". Delete entire line. Save the file.

7. Open repackimg.bat

8. You have the new file now "image-new.img". This is your patched boot file, which you need to flash (to both partitions, A and B).

9. After, you only need to instal Magisk.apk for giving root permissions.

I just want to thank Miustone. Without his guide, another guide wouldn't be helpful for me. It has been long time when I rooted the phone last time and indeed it its much more complicated today. But still it is worth to :). Before I rooted because there was to much useless things and heavy for hardware of the past and today I root to open Android ...which in the past was suppose to be open.

Phone: XQ-AT51

Software: 58.1.A.5.330 -R20B (the latest)

Hello, do you still have the Fastboot and Flashmode Drivers? the link only leads to M.A.R.S...
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] autobanned:
download flashtool, you could install the drivers from there
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] shreddocaster:
Thanks! I will try that. Though, is there no way to do this from Linux
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] Miustone:

Thanks a lot for your tutorial Miustone

No problem to enter in fastboot mode with "reboot bootloader" command, the problem is later...

Its impossible to me to connect with the xperia when in fastboot mode, windows don´t recongize the presence of phone. Windows 10 64 bits actualized.

Like other user, I could not download the fastboot and flasmode drivers...

Thank you!
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] Miustone:
Sorry for the Issues and the late reply. They should be available again...
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] Gathuso:

I will try again in the next days... :)
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] greddy111:
Hi all,

I cannot seem to flash a GSI rom and have a working camera. I tried the exact commands (copy paste) from the guide and receive no errors.

Have I overlooked some obvious prerequisite? I start off with stock sony android 11 and try flashing android 11 GSI roms.

(also tried flashing to 100% factory and try again)

Corvus, lineageOS, and crdroid are some gsi roms i have tried to name a few....

Any help is appreciated.
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] Lucien1997:
I cant have root on stock android 12 january patch, after patching boot img with magisk and flashing it in fastboot on flash_a and flash_b, I get the message "Your device is corrupt It can't be trusted and will not boot" and I have to restore the original boot img to boot up the phone, any advice or ideas will be welcome, thanks
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] shreddocaster:
I have the same result..
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] Lucien1997:
could you try to patch the boot img with magisk canary 23016 and flash a and b in fastboot? I'm away from my computer at the moment, so I can't check if this could work
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] shreddocaster:
I

Sorry, I am not sure where to find this version, please let me know if you do and I'll try it
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] Lucien1997:
I found a github link https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/issues/3752 related to the issue which had several fixes

One of them was to install a special magisk file called "app-release.apk" and to patch the boot img file with and flash it in fastboot mode on flash_a and flash_b, which I did,.and now I'm rooted, and phone is booting up normally, so problem solved
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] shreddocaster:
ah, yes. I forgot about that quirk. thanks. I got it to boot but no luck with getting it to work with microg yet...
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] Miustone:
Thread / Guide updated (:
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] 奶茶G:
Excuse me: Is the GSI ROM download and decompressed img directly flashed in Fastboot mode?

Is it currently Android 12 to flash back to Android 11?

Still groping, English is not good, ask for help!
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] Miustone:
You need to unpack the files to get the .img file of the GSI. You need to reboot to fastbootd from fastboot to flash the GSIs. That is needed since SM8250

You can use Android 12 Base with 11 GSI or Android 11 Base with 12 GSI. Your Choice

Hope this is what You wanted to know!? :)
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] 奶茶G:
Thank

Thank you in advance!

I have flashed the official GSI ROM before, but if I want to flash the CorvusOS vS2.1 Revolt ROM, I need to decompress the img first. Do I need to decompress the img to extract the system.img file?

Thanks for the reply, @Tjinn21 . It's not so much an error but that when I try to open the program through the run function, it doesn't work.
[Sony Xperia 1 II Guides, News, & Discussion] Tjinn21:
Drag and drop it onto the exe or use full path to the unsin.exe and then full path to the file you want to unsin.

[Lenovo K5 Note Questions & Answers] theredcusp:
I have been trying to hard reset my Lenovo Vibe K5 Note as I have forgotten the login password.

Despite many futile attempts to do it, I am unable to succeed.

While I press and hold on to the power on button and volume down button, screen displays the message

"Have been in meta mode, long press the power button and the normal boot"

After this, I release only the power button while holding on to the volume down button and wait for the next menu to appear.

But nothing happens next. Phone only displays the "Have been in meta mode, long press the power button and the normal boot" and does not proceed beyond.

Kindly someone help me to reset my Lenovo Vibe K5 Note.
[Lenovo K5 Note Questions & Answers] slayerkan:
Boot Lenovo K5 Note (A7020a48) into Recovery Mode & HARD-RESET

1.	First of all, POWER OFF the device. (Keep Pressing Power button. If you stuck on meta mode)

2.	Press and hold Volume UP & Volume DOWN and Power buttons together for few seconds.

3.	Release the Power button only after vibration and keep pressing Volume UP & Volume DOWN keys until Stock Recovery Mode (in English) appears.

4. Select Clear Data

5. Select Clear User Data. (WARNING : This is a FACTORY RESET. So it wipes Everything. Also maybe your IMEI, MAC ID, Wireless ID can be null or invalid.. DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK !!)

6. After the wipe, reboot phone and have a nice day.. :good:

You can't convert a single static wallpaper ( usually a .JPEG-file ) into a live wallpaper ( usually a .MP4-file ), but you can create a live wallpaper from several static wallpapers.

Several apps exist to create a movie from pictures.

Hey gang I’ve used the search feature to no avail. Long story short I had a ppc 6700 with aku 3.5 and the Internet sharing worked flawlessly. I recently purchased a mogul and upgraded it to ROM 3.56 and applied the registry hacks ie: deleted extension.dll, disabled multi-nai, force cell connection sprint pcs instead of phone as modem, and finally last cell connection to sprint pcs. The problem I’m having is after connecting to internet sharing it randomly disconnects which is a no-no. Am I doing something wrong or does this phone/rom just suck. Btw I’m using the usb connection only and I’m not a fan of PDAnet. Any help will greatly be appreciated.

Got a few PM on this already, and saw that videos are starting to be posted on this.

MOD EDIT: LINK REMOVED

Clearly shows that it's done just like mine. And shows the global rom as well.

I can say my experience has been great. Signal on att and TMobile seem to be the same, they work great. I also have used Verizon as well.

The phone has got 5G on TMobile in a lot of places.

The software now on global seems faster, no Chinese pop ups etc, no forcing you to use the stock browser when clicking links etc.
