To new a device yet and it'll probably be like the z5 in that respect- unlocked Bootloader root only, unless kingroot works which I doubt yet. I'm going back stock when I get mine I think.

is it necessary for kingroot app, that you unlock the bootloader first? kingroot fails everytime with rooting my xperia x...

What about restore DRM ?

How can we root our xperia X? Is there any pre rooted FTF file? Do someone have Recovery system installed on the xperia x? If yes, which one? Is there How-to? Thanks!!

If the x range uses drm-verity which I think all the new Xperia device's have since z3+ then root will only be on available unlocked Bootloader devices like the z5 range is. This device is still to new. Kingroot doesn't work for now if ever. Someone needs to build kernel+working recovery. For now guessing you're all gonna have to wait same as xa owners only x device with any support so far is x performance.

Hmm... Okay... So I have unlocked Bootloader.. The internal data (sdcard) was wiped. Kingroot doesn't work, correct. All other possibilities were also without success.. I created a firmware zip with PRFcreator inclusive the supersu zip. But I can't flash it to the mobile with flashtool or adb/fastboot... A renaming of the zip to FTF doesn't work, since flashtool does not recognize the ftf file as correct ftf file. It's only possible to flash it when I have customized Recovery
Is it possible to flash this firmware zip file anyway with working supersu.zip? I read something from converting zip to ftf...
It's not possible to copy the required supersu files into the system.sin and then flash the system.sin?
Or any other possible solution without customized recovery or new kernel? (I have stock firmware with stock kernel)
Can I install now everything from new and will the apps and app data stay on mobile when someone has generated the kernel and recovery and I flashed it to my mobile? Or will I lose it again after flashing bootloader/kernel/recovery?
Do you know if there is someone who works on this topic for working kernel and recovery for xperia x? Where can I track this?
Is there any How-to how I can make this work myself? Or is it complicated? the sources of xperia x should be available on Sony developer page, as I think I saw it there yesterday.
Many thanks in advance for your responses and time!

A pre-rooted zip can only be flashed to the device with a working recovery you can't change it to a ftf and flash it via flashtool not gonna happen. As far as I know there's nobody working on kernel and working recovery for the x or xa yet. For now your just gonna have to wait like the rest of us unless you compile kernel+recovery yourself kingroot obviously wouldn't work as the device isn't supported yet shouldn't even be needed on unlocked Bootloader root

Nope, he's made one for the x performance and pretty sure he's stated that unless someone or a group of people buys him a x for development he won't be supporting either the x or xa. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong

And the flashtool can not be worked too.
the reason maybe come from drivers.

CM9 will come if we get kernel sources!
This root rom bases on Europe ROM. But its only the system partition, so it will work on every Xperia P, no matter what region.

Is this ROM just the European ROM but rooted? Or have apps been removed or other things done to it?
I've tried to download the ROM via Rapidshare but failed several times now. Is there someone that can host it somewhere else?

Is it possible to host it on the XDA Fileserver? There already is a section for Xperia P custom roms. I don't know who runs that part of XDA?
uploading on xda file server!!
will take some time (20 minutes)
here it is: http://xdafileserver.nl/Files/Sony (Ericsson)/Sony Xperia P/CUSTOM ROMS/ICX/XperiaP_prerooted.zip
tested and confirmed working
It seems like you linked to the ROM that was already present on the server: XPeriaP_preroot.zip. That's the version stripped from all applications. If I am not mistaking that's a 2.3.7 gingerbread version, so it shouldn't be in the ICX section (which, I am out on a limb here, is reserved for Ice Cream Sandwich versions?).
Then you have another version in stock ROM's thats pretty similar to the XPeriaP_preroot.zip: a stripped version of the stock version.
Is it possible to put the version on XFS that is mentioned in this thread? The 694MB version?
Anyway, big thanks already for the awesomeness of uploading the other files to the fileserver. I think a lot of people will appreciate it.
Edit: it seems that the unpacked XperiaP_preroot.zip is 694 MB. So I think all apps are in there.
I flashed the pre rooted file and the phone is now rooted, but the build # still says 6.0.B.564! instead of .654
I think that's a typo in the post, there is no build newer than 564

Thanks for the clarification
Hmm.. strange. fastboot says:
Code:
FAILED (remote: Image won't fit, partition too small!)
Is there a way to make the boot-partition bigger?
EDIT:
Haha, sry, i tried to install in boot partition, not system partition.
Is there a way to root without unlocking bootloader? Maybe some universal guide to root?

You will likely be waiting some time, because it's possible to downgrade and flash pre-rooted zip or to OTA certain FW's maintaining root, I don't see devs putting a lot of effort into finding an exploit. That said best hope is probably an exploit being found for Z3 which is transferable to Z2, but as I say you may be waiting some time.

You don't need, you can flash back an original ftf anytime or repair with Sony PC Companion. We are talking locked bootloadr, so until you don't unlock it, you have warranty.
But if you already have root on prev. firmware, you should install DualRecovery and boot into TWRP and you can backup your system there.

Yes, if you have older firmware on the phone, you can try the root options available and you can use recovery without unlocking th bootloader. If you have the latest, than you can possibly flash an older firmware to your phone and root that. But you need to read a bit, to understand everything correctly.
I have successfully rooted my Z2 on 4.4.4 locked bootloader

TWRP thinks that I use a different phone

Hi I'm a noob to Root, Recovery, flash and everything but I'm technical noob.
I just want to install CM12.1 Nightly to my Xperia Z2 (Bought it on ebay)
The official rom with Lollipop was installed.
First step, Bootloader unlock, no problem, official unlock code from Sony, use Flashtool, done.
But second step, get root access was more difficult.
I tried a few tutorials but the problem was lollipop, as far as I understand.
Than I found this tutorial:
(Google: "How-to-root-Sony-Xperia-Z2-and-Z3-on-Android-5.0.2-Lollipop")
I'm not allowed to post urls.
With some small issues everything seem to be fine.
Check with RootVerify App, root granted.
Restart TWRP starts, great!
Install choose CM 12.1 zip.
Error: "This package is for device ... sirius (I know that's my phone!); this device is leo." WHAT? NO! It's not!
Can someone help me (Noob)??
Kind regards
Make sure you have proper twrp installed that will allow you to install cm12.1.
Also you may want to try for example cwm or just manually flash boot.img (extract from rom).

I don't think that it has something to do with the TWRP version (2.8.6.0) because also in Windows it's now shown as Xperia Z3 ;(
Befor it was the correct Xperia Z2 shown.

Can you get into fastboot? Have you tried to download whatever rom you want and extract the boot.img and flash it with fastboot?
If you have an unlocked boatloads, you can always flash a boot.img with recovery. It's very hard to brick your phone.

Nah. Just use flashtool to flash stock firmware if you don't know how to get recovery working back again.
And about extracting boot.img
You open the zip which contains new system. There should be such a file. Then you just flash it using fastboot with this command: fastboot flash boot boot.img
If you want some more precise tutorial then just check out keywords like "fastboot kernel flash"

[F3211/F3213/F3215][KERNEL][STOCK] Stock kernels built from sources

Hi,
I will release here my updated "boot.img" files for the Xperia XA Ultra Single Sim.
You must have an unlocked bootloader to flash with Fastboot.
You don't need to be on the same firmware as the boot image that you want to flash.
You have to flash SuperSu again from TWRP just after flashed new boot to avoid bootloop.
All boot images have "ro.secure=0" and "ro.debuggable=1" in default.prop file
and "forcencrypt" of internal memory switched to "encryptable" in fstab.mt6755 file.
The Fastboot command is:
fastboot flash boot NAMEOFIMAGE.img

Follow the guide from @Yooooomi to flash new firmware on your Ultra to avoid bugs and brick: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xa-ultra/how-to/flashing-xa-ultra-flashtool-t3551319

Nothing. I made it for rooted users and because you can't repack the kernel from "ftf" firmware. (usefull if you want to play with the ramdisk)
You can ask Sony for a kernel changelog

Hi, there is no modified boot for 36.0.A.2.146 firmware that's probably why you have a bootloop. Download 36.0.A.2.123 firmware with Xperifirm included in Flashtool.

I'm pretty much in the same boat as Appleknight based on his reply in the other thread. I've got a more-than-full-time job, a lot of other interests, no experience compiling kernels and no time to learn.
I understand that it probably gets frustrating putting in all the work and not getting much in the way of recognition or gratitude for it, so I understand if you have chosen not to produce a root-pack for Nougat. That being said, If you (or anyone else with the skills to do so) would produce a root-pack for nougat on my 3213, I'd be more than happy to donate - say $20. Not sure if anyone else is interested in sweetening the pot...

I'm pretty much in the same boat as Appleknight based on his reply in the other thread. I've got a more-than-full-time job, a lot of other interests, no experience compiling kernels and no time to learn.
I understand that it probably gets frustrating putting in all the work and not getting much in the way of recognition or gratitude for it, so I understand if you have chosen not to produce a root-pack for Nougat. That being said, If you (or anyone else with the skills to do so) would produce a root-pack for nougat on my 3213, I'd be more than happy to donate - say $20. Not sure if anyone else is interested in sweetening the pot...

Sorry but I'm not interested, I'm not a mercenary.
I prefer receiving 20 cents from 100 users because they like my work (or 100 thanks ?) rather than $20 from one user because it need my work. I hope that you understand my point of view. But I'm sure that your offer will motivate some people.
I can respect that.

TWRP 3.0.2 for Xperia Z5 Compact (32.2.0.A.305)

I've rooted my z5c before, but I used rootkernel method, I can't install twrp with this .305 firmware. So I want to know if there's any way I could install twrp so I can root my phone again. Please don't tell me to search I used search before making this thread. Thanks

No worries,
Mod already got notified
You can flash twrp recovery to your fotakernel partition via fastboot, however this won't give you the ability to root your phone by flashing supersu if that is what you think.
You need a patched kernel too and this should come with twrp anyway(expect for the nougat ones til now)
You can make yourself a patched kernel with rootkernel, which need a little trick to work since .305. It's mentioned in the rootkernel-thread.
Or you can get yourself androplus kernel. Just google it.
Or you could upgrade to latest MM-firmware .11 and install my patched kernel
