Hmm that's a good question. Looks like you'll need a few more things.

Use the "boot_X-FLASH-ALL.sin" file you'll find in the firmware folder you downloaded. In my case I would use the Customized UK XQ-AU52 one, but depends on what model you have or are using. If you have trouble knowing what model/region your phone is then use the Emma tool from Sony directly and it'll tell you what firmware you use (this is also useful to keep around should you need to do a full factory reset for any reason).

With that boot.sin file, use UnSIN to convert the file into an .img file and rename to boot.img. That should ideally work.

Please keep in mind that I cannot confirm this to be totally correct! I use LineageOS which provides a boot.img file in the zip already, so have never done this method to root my phone with the stock OS. I would advise looking around forums and doing a few more Google searches for your own sake just to be sure. But so far as I am aware this is the proper method! When all else fails, factory reset and try again.
[Sony Xperia 10 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] philshifley:
Yes my phone is a Sony xperia 10ii XQ-AU52.

I converted the boot_X-FLASH-ALL.sin using the unsin software and managed to run the commands as given in the magisk guide page. After successfully doing so, well the phone got stuck in a bootloop, so i had to use Emma to restore it. so am back where i started again.hehe
[Sony Xperia 10 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] dreDREb13:
Ah yes, I was worried that may happen... I had my own issues trying to flash bits and pieces of the firmware versus just flashing the whole thing itself.

Unfortunately that's the best advice I know to give. Only other thing I could say is perhaps try flashing the entire firmware package downloaded via Xperifirm to your device using Newflasher, and THEN do the UnSIN and try again with the boot.img since you'll be certain that the boot files align with one another. Could be an issue that the boot.img for that firmware isn't compatible with the firmware you had already installed on your phone?

Hi,

I'm trying to get TWRP onto my Xperia 10 ii to get it rooted, but It simply doesn't work.

Followed all steps as described by Sjillls, but still when I try to get into TWRP I'm just seeing loop of TWRP splash screen (2s) and black screen (3-4s).

If someone know the solution, please give me a hint :)

Thanks

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] olaolson:
Hello. I'm having trouble installing TWRP on my Pixel (sailfish) phone. Here's a detailed rundown to where I'm now.

I messed up by flashing the .zip file instead of booting from the .img. I restored the factory image following the instructions on the Factory Images page on Google Developers. Following that, I retried by closely following the instructions (booting into system, setting up PIN, enable debugging, rebooting into bootloader, etc.) Upon trying to install the .zip from the temporary TWRP boot, I get the errors

Failed to mount /system_data
Failed to mount /vendor

After this I'm unable to boot into recovery. Phone will get to Google screen, then shutdown and boot into system. I've tried a couple of things I've found online:

tried installing Verified Boot Signer with same errors

tried different versions of TWRP

tried factory resetting then wiping data from temporary TWRP boot

tried mounting partitions manually from menu; can only get vendor to mount

At this point I'm not sure what I might be missing. My goal is to install LineageOS + microG and rooting the device.

(Originally I tried using the Lineage Recovery for this following instructions unsuccessfully, so I'm trying TWRP instead. I'm including this in case it might have any relevance.)

Thanks in advance.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Song0329:
I dont have pixel,if pixel have 2 slots,u can try this way

Android = Fastboot mode.

PC to android = Fastboot boot twrp.img for temporary twrp.

Android = will display twrp,click install,pick twrp.img in android,click install ram disk,reboot system

Done

Try to reboot into recovery...it should be twrp recovery in permanently
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] sarace_d:
Hello,I came to the same problom today,I tried to flash a LineageOS following this,and then install TWRP successfuly,It seemed that the latest google factory image was incompatitive with TWRP,that two partitions seem are new things that cannot be recognized by TWRP.Sorry for my poor English.

edit:It turns out no use,the TWRP app would crash and Recovery was the same.

edit again: I tried one older version of TWRP which is twrp-3.1.1-1,and It worked!
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] Olmaik:
So i have Mi 10 for like 2 months and so far i am so disappointed from it. Mainly from camera which is not as good as i expected (in my opinion Mi 9 which i had before had much better camera and overall results from all 3 sensors) miui 12 is terrible and only good thing i can see on my Mi 10 is battery, 90Hz amoled display and maybe sound. I drop Mi 9 beacuse of super good offer on Mi 10 and i thougth it will be great but its not. Couple days ago i bought for my girlfriend POCO X3 and when i see what that phone can do for fraction of price of my Mi 10. I mean display is not amoled but panel is look so good and 120Hz si awesone, battery life is exellent and camera in my opinion is almost the same as Mi 10 wich for the price of POCO X3 its just hilarious. So i am thinking last couple days to drop Mi 10 and get POCO X3 because its just much better value.. I am crazy?!
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] krepsz:
No, you not crazy. Im also very disappointed from Mi10.
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] Olmaik:
Well, i am happy to not be alone.
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] krepsz:
How i wrote a down on Foto section, the camera setup is trash.The 108mp main camera cant take normal fotos, cos its washing out the background, from 5 meters too. And its ****, if i want, that everything is sharp on the foto. 13mp wide is also bad. 2mp macro ist a joke. Sreen is ok, processor is ok. Im want back my Mi8. It was a super phone. Good Fotos, good size. Fast enough.
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] Olmaik:
Yes exactly!!! Camera is the most disappointment. Sometimes it nail the photo but 80% of time photo looks bad.

Here is good example. I had Mi 9 before Mi 10, photos are super sharp thanks to laser AF and good sensor. Mi 10 just focus on middle a rest of image is just bad.

[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] krepsz:
The Problem is the big hype around bokeh. Now this is the trend. And when the Mi10 have a normal main camera and extra the portrait for bokeh , than i dont care about wide, cos with Gcam i can make from 9 foto very good wide. My opinion is, that 2 good camrea is enough. But now phone manufacturer racing, that who can put more camera tje backside of the phone. I hope, that trend will changes amd coming normalisation in this theme.

[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] nikola92:
You guys are on crack if you think Mi 10 is not good. Like photography part of phone I never comment because I would pay serious money for phone with no cam, or some whatever cam, just give me performance and battery. And this phone does those 2 better than most phones. I don't understand how can you put Poco X3 in same category with Mi 10. Yeah 120 Hz make it feel like Mi 10 but under the hood Mi 10 is beast on it's own and this OLED screen is too notch even tho is 1080p, I compared it head to head with OnePlus 8 Pro and minor differences could be seen.
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] cobraxxx123:
The camera is excellent, stop saying nonsense and don't be so ignorant
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] albannotosska:
The phone hardware is amazing, what sucks is MIUI! It feels like someone made a custom rom full of bugs and lags, it doesn't feel like a stock rom at all. I had oneplus previously and their OOS is way way better!
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] nikola92:
MIUI is custom ROM, I am kinda ancient when it comes to XDA and I remember how MIUI started and we all old heads were hyped to see company take over community work and put it into their phones out of box. Now OnePlus latest updates made their phones lookalike Samsung UI, so what you had on your OnePlus is history. And on almost any phone if you like stock android experience so you can tweak and tinker it AOSP ROM was the way or som custom ROM. So the charm of Android phones is all you need to like is hardware and you make your own looks and feels out of vast majority of ROM. I know some phone lack of even Root support or Bootloader is locked forever. But I kinda cringe when I see people on XDA complaining about looks of Phone and it's software when they can tweak it and being on XDA implies you want to tinker. Just have common sense people, don't be lazy and complain.
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] Olmaik:
No this camera is far from excelent, really far.
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] albannotosska:
Not my point at all! I said MIUI doesn't feel like the original rom the phone came with, which means: it has alot of problems, alot of lags, animation stuttering and so on! The hardware might be good but the software totally kills the experience for me. As for tryingcustom roms, I am currently on a custom rom, but those still have some issues. Also when I buy a phone I expect it to work all good out of the box: hardware and software. And for xiaomi this is the first premium flagship I have tried that the hardware feels like a flagship but the phone feels like my old redmi note 5(last non flagship device I had)
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] seities:
i'm with the others who think the mi10 camera is pretty good. what you said about "focus on middle and rest of image is just bad", well that's bokeh. REAL OPTICAL BOKEH, not processed/faked ones: something that's not possible with smaller sensors on phones typically, and approaching what you can get with much larger dedicated cameras. It's not a fault, but an achievement, IMHO.

What might have also impressed you the wrong way is probably the characteristic cold tones of the Samsung sensors compared to the much warmer (lab tested pleasing) tones of the Sony sensors. Though Samsung sensors would typically appear sharper overall even with comparable resolution, never mind between mi9 and 10. Sharpness and resolution should be hands down in mi 10's favor. Getting GCam should help a lot with dynamic range issues in difficult lighting (you seem to have unfavorable/difficult lightings for both of the Mi10 samples compared to the mi9, which were both shot with much better lighting conditions).
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] Olmaik:
Trust me, its not real bokeh. I have couple cameras at home and real optical bokeh looks really different then what Mi 10 does to images.
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] albannotosska:
This!!!! IT is no way near a real bokeh, it is the worst bokeh I have ever seen!

Cameras suck man, suck big time. My old pixel 2 has a way wayy better camera(which is a 3year old device). And even though I use gcam, sometimes that is not stable, and whats the point of a 700$ phone if alot of stuff is not stable and keeps lagging?
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] Olmaik:
Well for that real optical bokeh.. Here is link for two shots. Same conditions, no filtr, just point focus and shoot. iPhone XS vs Mi 10.

https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=122xjPkdP4Y54M4Cg5ziLhHkTYP5_8nv4

iPhone did much better job with bokeh then Mi 10 did.

How to :

1. Enter fastboot mode

2. Run these code:

fastboot oem lock

What will happen:

1. Bootloader will be locked, if you rooted or flashed twrp, renmenber to flash official firmware before relocking.

2. widevine level will be restored to L1.

3. All data will lost after relocking.

4. DRM key? I don't think we need it now and IDK if it loses either.

[Android Head-Units] spacman:
Hi,

Just got new android headunit, this one https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000808902548.html model T3-CP. advertised as 4-core ALL WINER T3 1.5GHz Cortex A7. But cpu-z says that processor is 1.2Ghz and actually runs on 1.0 Ghz. Unit works mainly as adverticed and expected, just a little bit slow but just wondering is there way to change cpu speed to 1.2Ghz which should be actual cpu speed? Also wondering what is actual os version on headunit? Kernel 4.9.118 says it is Android 9.0 but api level 27 says it's 8.1? Also does anyone know how to find developer options on those Prelingcar headunits? Far as i know it should be quite popular brand? Thanks :)
[Android Head-Units] realzoulou:
If you read the Aliexpress description carefully, it says it is a Android 8.1 with 1 GB RAM. The kernel version cannot be used to derive the Android version.

Yes, the Android Settings version information is faking to be Android 10 and 2 GB RAM. Never trust such a screen on these Chinese HUs.

CPU-Z is using the kernel interfaces to find out max CPU frequency and current frequencies of the 4 cores. Note that the kernel adjusts core frequencies on the fly, dependant on the CPU load. So you will not see 1.2 GHz often and should see lower frequency typically.
[Android Head-Units] spacman:
Actually device has 2gb ram, atleast displayed by cpu-z. Cheaper model T3 has 1gb, but this is T3-CP. Yes i know that unit do not have android 10 even it says so, but just wondering what version it actually has.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Token42:
Hello,

I don't know if it is common to the diamond, that the power-button gives nearly no tactile feedback by pressing it, perhaps its only with few devices.

When I'am pressing the button I'am only aware to have done it correctly, when the device gets on or off. The button is built relatively deep into the housing of the phone, so I have often press it twice.

Even If I press it gently with the fingernail to feel slightes response, I it is very hard to recognize the point where the microswitch is activated.

Is this a normal issue?

Kind Regards:

Token42
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] pwoyorkie:
i suffer from no such issue, i think yours is borked :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Token42:
Thanks for feedback. Currently the button works for me, appart from beeing not suh responsive - so I keep the device until it gets wors.

If I press the button in the middle with my nail there is a minimal "click-feeling" , so the switch seems not completely broken, curriosely there is a little more tactile feedback, when I release it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] pwoyorkie:
how long have you had it ?

I know at t-mobile if develops a fault within the first 28 days youre entitled to an exchange. If youve had it under a month it may be worth just changing it before a 28 day exchange turns into a 2 week repair.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Vector-SS:
Mine has the same thing too. It really isn't a big issue but it does get annoying at times.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] PJ6363:
Mine reacts the same way, as I think it has been designed into the device as a "feature"......in other words: have to actively press it to make it work, so that it cannot be turned on by accident (hence why it is mostly recessed) :mad:

I don't think your device is broken....suspect if you return it, you will get one with exactly the same feature :rolleyes:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Token42:
Many thanks for your comments!

I feel much better now, since I know others have the same issue and it has not be a fault on my device.

Even it where faulty, I could live with it, cause it works all in all, but I think it would be much better to have a decent tactile feedbak on the power-switch.

Perhaps the power-button is a solid peace of hardware, but often when I press it I think something like "how long will it take, till does not work anymore" - but this is only a psychological issue, perhaps.

Many regards!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] an123:
the button should project just enough to feel it with your fingers

the earlier htc touch had a recessed power button which was a bit difficult to press....so the one on the diamond is relatively easier to press coz it projects out of the body

also, how ur holding the device whilst pressing the power button also makes a difference!

Does Moto G8 support carrier aggregation? LTE-A? Can anyone confirm or deny this? I have seen conflicting information. What LTE category does this device support? Only Cat 4?
[Moto G8 (Moto G Fast) Questions & Answers] olkitu:
There is only way check via modem log but Motorola doesn't provide any non-root method. If you have rooted device, you can take log with Qualcomm diag method https://cacombos.com/contribute
[Moto G8 (Moto G Fast) Questions & Answers] Nico100g:
Thanks for the answer, unfortunately my phone is not root. For now I have no plans to change this (for warranty).

I asked because I saw conflicting information. Some reviews say that we have LTE Cat 13/5 (400Mbps / 75Mbps (Notebookcheck), others talk about cat 12 (600Mbps / 100Mbps), and on the Motorola forum I only found information about cat 4.

Tried checking with NetMonster and sometimes saw aggregations of the two bands (2600 + 800Mhz for example) but the program only showed LTE and not LTE-A. And aggregation disappeared when data was turned on (maybe it's my carrier fault?). I've never seen an LTE+ icon. I also know that this application can show nonsense.

That's why I wanted to ask, because maybe he has already checked it?
