Wonderful! What's your CDA in the build.prop? If you could please post it here, will change mine and see if that triggers an update.
Thanks.

EDIT: updating right now, I'll be back after using Towelroot again and installing Dual recovery...
Interesting that the version change from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 update is being done via an ota patch, you'd think (as per other updates) this would be a full pc ftf update..
Dammit, didn't know I couldn't update with Sony bridge if I was on an unlocked bootloader.
I want this 4.4.4 now ?
Sent from my C6833 using Tapatalk
Just FYI, Easy Towelroot (v7) works a treat with 4.4.4, everything goes like it's supposed to.
Also installed dual recovery from NUT's repository, and currently running every xposed module I was running on 4.4.2.
Oh yeah!

Hi fasty, I've changed build prop to match yours on a full reflash of 757 {which I then towelrooted} - plugged in pc companion and hey presto 4.4.4

Would you mind helping me out a bit? I can only find Towelroot (V3). Do you have a link to where I could download it from? Also what version of NUT's dual recovery did you use? Thanks in advance!
Easy Root is @v7, looks like he mixed it up with Towelroot since Towelroot has to be copied to the files folder of Easy Root.

How do i get the ota on my c6806? I know its released here. Thank you.
I'll try and make an ftf.. I'm back on 4.4.2 monx but pc companion still says update is available due to my build prop edits..
I'll try and do a "repair" 4.4.4 install and make the ftf off the full downloaded (which repair does but update doesnt).
Give me a few hours (sharing pc with 10yo minecraft obsessed son lol)
Sorry for being OT but couldnt resist myself...as this might be the most viewed thread in zu forum
I am planning
To make a stock based rom for z ultra..
I am looking for a tester..as i dont own the device..but pretty confident that i can make a rom..

What is the chanse that this process can overwrite the files system (b.l, radio, rom...) and resolve the problem?

Only sucseed unlocking the bootloader.
I tried also to change the kernal (read it on another guide) but it just wasnt helpful.
I think that the solution will be ONLY by flashing the factory rom + factory kernel by the flashtool.
The question is how can i find the right factory rom?
Have to say that i quait afraid that i will flash the wrong files...

I did not suggest to unlock the bootloader, I just asked, because PCC would not update unlocked bootloader.
Have you tried SUS? It won't update unlocjed BL either, and won't even begin to update, I had a message telling I have a modified FW and it cannot update, but PCC only fails after it download the files.
What error did you get in PCC?
"Factory rom" vary from country and service providers if it sold with a contract. Which ROM exactly do you need?
Which FW version do you have now?

Hi,
Good news...hope so
I canceled the Root in bootloader -> then updated the rom with the updating software of Sony and the process finished without any issues.
Till now it looks good...but w'll need to have more then 8 hours of use to know if it did resolved it.
But it looks like a good and maybe we could be optimistic:good:
Thanks so much for your helping desire - all along!
I your FW version is 6.2.A.1.100 and you wish to root use DooMLoRD Easy Rooting Toolkit it's easy and no brainer.
Tested: Excellent A+ release, stable and fast. Root: Not "officially" supported yet at 20 october 2013.
FTF Decrypt and upload thanks to Chemcup:
https://mega.co.nz/#!jFMX1bCS!d2kA1AezDnXK6g8ZWrXN2DnLkTExaj9un96P0Dge4nA
I think should work on C6802/6806 as well, maybe something disabled/or/enabled and not usable on the Mobile connection menu, related to LTE/4G band.....
I've tested with success a firmware for C6802 Taiwan (.510) on a European Z Ultra C6833 device. And was working flawless, so i guess this should work on any Ultra.
***I TAKE NO RESPONSABILITY, IF YOU DO NOT OWN A C6833 and flash this on a C6802/6 DO A YOUR OWN RISK.
and beside working, your device may be also recognized as a C6833 after a direct flash of this.
Please follow flashtool guide to flash FTF, and use last version:
Release 0.9.13.0
Available from the developer's site.
http://www.flashtool.net/
General disclaimer: Flashing without Sony Update is a method generally unsupported, and it may void the warranty. So do it on your own risk. If things go wrong, you may try the "repair my phone" option on Sony Pc Companion (PC) / Sony Mac Bridge (MAC). Also, users that do not hurry in updates, may just wait the proper release for their phones to be released into official Sony Xperia channels.
"Ultra"Quick guide on flashing with flashtool (Windows7):
1) Install Sony Pc Companion
2) Install Flashtool (C:Flashtool)
3) Connect your Xperia and check if is recognized by the system by drivers, ok? disconnect.
4) Download the firmware, and copy the .ftf file inside c:flashtool/firmwares
5) From C:Flashtool, run Flashtool.exe in Windows or Flashtool64.exe in Windows x64
6) Choose lightning icon, and choose FLASH
7) Choose the Firmware from the list
8) Wait the program tells is ready to flash
9) Turn off the device and wait 10 secs
10) SIMULTANEOUSLY: Micro usb connect + Volume down

Hi all, I tried to flash the version, it works excellent, for those who are not comfortable with the FTF, just change youe CDA to:1275-8026 R11A, you will receive the updates from PCC
Been trying the firmware..
All nasty bugs like phantom clicks, SOD, wifi messed, backlight seems to be gone.
General speed is above good!
I would say A+ for this firmware release.

With this method, can I root the phone (290) with locked bootloader and keep my TA partition untouched?

Great job! Rooting works well. Can't seem to be able to unlock the device but this is beta so I will wait a little longer. Just keep me posted if you have any clue on why the unlocking part keeps saying that it failed because my device is already rooted when it is not.
Again here, I appreciate you sharing the tool with us.

Never, NEVER, flash something to a GPe from the normal C68xx range.
At best you will pull your hear out, at worst you will end up with a very expensive waterproof coaster. There have been 3 or 4 hard brick of the GPe from people flashing the wrong things to their GPe.
Files for the GPe will be labeled as such and will most often be in the GPe dev section
Great work

Look here, i have made a Videoguide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...droid-4-4-4-ver-14-4-0-108-t2801587?nocache=1
So after Rooting go and make a TA Backup insteand!
wondering...
Hello there,
Where could I find a custom kernel or a custom recovery (I don't know the difference) for the 14.4.A.0.108 ?
I would like to install AOKP on my C6833 Please
it's ROOTED and UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER (DRM KEYS & TA PARTITION ALREADY BACKED UP)
thanks if someone could answer...
I'm searching and I can't find anything...
(I would like a complete tutorial where everything is well explained, I'm a noob in the XPERIA WORLD, I'm a Galaxy Note GT-N7000 veteran, it was such easy to mod)
Hi
The kitkat root is out whit ioroot25
I allowed myself to translate .bat in french
Original : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48709232&postcount=869&nocache=1&z=7334539103321731
French .bat : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_mq_wfd9Y5feklEUVFMTWJlWk0/edit?usp=sharing (Just .bat you must download ioroot25)
Is it true that you can only root KK lg g2 but no custom recovery?
I have root my g2 on D80220b-EUR-XX with ioroot25 without problem...
I performed the update kitkat with ota (520Mo)
before I was with 4.2, root with vroot but I lost root with this update

u have t mobile..801?? i read that the t mobile versions are having trouble with this
I can confirm that ioroot v25 works on stock KK on LS980. Just follow the instructions on the screen.
plz someone help me,how to root lg g2 official 4.4.2d802(indian versions) ?
Does this root KK or just works on KK?
I used ioroot25 on JB and took a KK OTA to retain root... but I didn't think KK was rooted yet.

Thanks!! :good:
Anyway this loki fix is made only by LG, because new One M8 and Z2 have KK and they are already rooted and have custom recovery installed. Is it correct? Is it a choice of LG?

Yes thi metod work for me but, you don't use stock kernel, if you install a recovery on kk you must install a custom kernel, i suggest furnace 2.0!

Why??
If all he wants is root, ioroot is all he needs! 24 for 4.2.2, or 25 for 4.4.2.

Who said he has a custom recovery? All he mentioned was that he's on stock Kitkat.
Please, people, be careful with your instructions and read or you might help someone in bricking their device!

Yes read things 3x over to be sure.
To clarify for people
If you want just ROOT you DO NOT need custom kernal
If you want ROOT and CUSTOM RECOVERY you DO need custom kernal

I think you should be at least able to flash FTF file using Flashtool, just search in google for some time. I had also done such things many times, flashed different kernel, rom and other things and had bricked the phone, but always got back using flashtool.

In flashtool it said that I should enable usb debugging but how can I enable it if I can't even boot up the phone.

For flashtool, you don't need to boot-up the phone. With power-off, just press Volume Up or down button (depending upon flash mode or fastboot mode) and then connect USB cable to PC (laptop). Flashtool should detect it. You may need to install ADB driver though.

To clear things up, before flashing this update of 5.1.1 my phone is ZU C6802 running 4.4.4 which is rooted LB and using latest dualrecovery. After flashed I reboot system from recovery and then my phone wont boot-up. It just dead, when pressing the power button it just vibrate.
Then I've tried to flash back to kitkat using flashtool and I cannot flash it. It said that I must enable usb debugging but how? I cannot boot my phone.

Can you see your phone in device manager? If yes, just go for update driver and select the ADB driver.
