[ROOT][UNLOCKED BL] Proper root with fixed kernel + Philz/TWRP for 4.3 (14.2.A.1.136) - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

Steps (only for bootloader unlocked ZU's running 14.2.A.1.136):
1. Download and copy the latest SuperSU zip to your internal memory/SD card: http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu
2. Download my fixed kernel with dual recoveries from here: https://db.tt/0HagsJRy (The recoveries are taken from @[NUT]'s XZDualRecovery. All credits go to him.)
3. (If you already have 4.3, skip this step) Download and flash 14.2.A.1.136. The FTF's for different models are available in General and Android Development sections.
4. Once the FTF is flashed correctly, flash the downloaded kernel image from Step 2 using this fastboot command: "fastboot flash boot kernel-136-dual.img"
5. Reboot the phone ("fastboot reboot"). When the Sony logo appears and the LED turns violet, hold volume up until you get into Philz Touch [OR] hold volume down to enter TWRP.
6. Flash the SuperSU zip from Step 1.
7. Reboot and you're done.
IMPORTANT: If you use "Xposed Framework", you need this version for it to work on 4.3: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48484642&postcount=6846

I was waiting for someone to do it to be honest but I got tired of waiting. Do you know how to integrate CWM & TWRP into the stock kernel btw? That would make the process easier

It most likely does since I was using a C6833 kernel on my C6802 with no problems. The only difference among the models is the radio; we share the same firmware. Why don't you give it a try and report back?

That's what I am working on now. I am trying to compare the file of other stock kernel with Recovery to add it to my kernel.

You need fastboot drivers. Download Flashtool to get them: http://www.flashtool.net/index.php

Nice job!

for anyone who think the root will be kept after re-lock (like we did in .257).. I tested it and the phone won't start.
I re-unlocked the BL with flashtool and the phone boot successfully and still has full root. :good:

@ChillyChan
how to get those navbar in pic in first post.

Excellent work
I'm executing an ric enable script via smanager at boot to turn my partial root to full root (which works) - your solution a lot nicer :thumbup:

Hey yaldak! I also came from he S2 forum and nice to see you here
I flashed a custom ROM to my One a few days ago and have decided to go back to rooted stock...Ive downloaded the zip from the Nocturnal crew so we'll see how it goes. Nice to see you here though!
Sticking with stock for the following reasons:
- Device is relatively new
- Sense 5 is quite...nice actually
- HTC seems to be on their game with security and customizability of the stock ROM

Hold the power button till I goes black & then hold volume down till u boot into bootloader, select recovery. If u get that far. Let me know, but U should have never flashed thus
Team-Noctural.com/androidtechy.com/droidnow.com.
No I didn't flash this just was hoping I could use this as an ruu. I think I know what I did. I was on cm10 and flashed straight to sense again without flashing a kernel so its boot looping. But it won't let me get into recovery anymore. Only the boot loader. Any ideas?

Okay so I got it into recovery finally. Had to erase cache from fast boot to get it. But I have nothing on internal. How can I push something to it? I have your ROM and stock kernel ready to go.

What kind of fw is this? Generic Europe? Generic Global?
Thanks for sharing!
could anyone confirm this one ?
Thank'd.
Btw, how do you make the kernel only ftf? I know how to make a full ftf and extract the kernel.sin from it. Then how to make the ftf from it? Or.. any other way? Thanks in advance.
any other link ?

I don't think so. I have flashed a few cooked (current) ROMs with .254 rooted + CWM. What matters is having CWM to flash the ROM which comes in zip files...In fact, I had to downgrade to .254 in order to root + CWM to flash
so to correct my understanding
ROM in OP is pre-rooted but Kernel in OP is stock kernel without root?
Exactly what are the changes in this FW
I mean geez Sony only put -_- battery improvements, software enhancements and are really very generic changes

No, At least they should've given the exact things they fixed liked the "App Installation Animation is fixed" instead of saying "Various System Improvements". It seems so general

Yes it is.
Did you change anything in the ROM apart from rooting it? There are some files missing compared to my german .201 version. I don't know if there are more files than the bloatware ones, it was just a short look into it.
anyone experience unknown baseband and wifi problem after flashing?

[NOV.2015] [FTF] 14.6.A.1.216 [Stock DE.]

Here's the latest official update from Sony. It's the second 5.1.1 release, and it looks like a bugfix release. The version here is the German version (yes, it'll work on all devices). Works on both locked and unlocked bootloaders.
Root and recovery must be installed separately if that should be desirable.
- Download ROM (FTF) (1.3GB) (Google Drive)
- NUT Dual Recovery
- SuperSU (Flash in recovery)
How did you install the recovery on this one sir?

- If you have an unlocked bootloader then just hotboot (not flash) a kernel with recovery, then flash the ZIP and reboot
OR
- Use the Windows-installer from the thread
- If you have a locked bootloader, then use the Installer too. It's all in that thread.

I'll make this short. If you don't know how to navigate through a terminal, then you'll have to search and read about it, or use a different method. Note that you must have fastboot/ADB installed on your computer. This handy installer does the job for you.
- Download a random Z Ultra kernel with recovery, like this one
- Boot your device into fastboot
- Open a terminal and type "fastboot boot <kernel.img>
- Watch your device. It'll boot. Press VOL UP for recovery
- Flash NUT's DualRecovery ZIP
- Reboot
OR
- Download QuickIMG
- Boot into fastboot (VOL UP while you plug it to your computer)
- Does the app say "Connected"? If yes, continue.
- Choose the kernel you downloaded and press "hotboot/boot"
- Watch your device. It'll boot. Press VOL UP for recovery
- Flash NUT's DualRecovery ZIP
- Reboot
OR
- Use fastboot (terminal) or QuickIMG
- FLASH the kernel you downloaded
*It is compatible with this ROM, so you can choose to run this kernel. It has recovery.
- Reboot and you're done
The kernel i downloaded is a zip file.
Should i extract the the "boot.img" and flash it with adb or fastboot?
I really appreciate it sir. Thanks.

Yup, but just start by hotbooting it, and not flash. That way if something goes wrong, you'll just have to reboot since the kernel hasn't been flashed.
Any chance someone more skilled than myself could make this update prerooted for LB, that we can just flash over .368.... Please

You'll have to go through a painful guide. There is a guide in the general section, so read that before deciding if you want to flash it. You can also just flash a ROM that's pre-rooted. This ROM is mostly for those who aren't planning on rooting and those that have unlocked bootloaders, so sorry about that.
can i flash it on C6833?
thanks

That's a good question, when we flash the ROM it wouldn't touch the boot loader correct? Could you please upload it, I will see if I have the guts to flash it. Thank you

You can either root with kingroot and then replace kingroot with SuperSU (there is an app to do it) or revert to KitKat, root, install dual recovery and flash updated Roms.

Yes, just flash it. It's exactly like the Portuguese version, only with a couple of apps that nobody uses. Just uninstall them as usual.
