check bootloader unlock (non windows tools)

hello
im trying to unlock a x10mini. almost all tools are windows tools. everything ok, except that im running osx86. so i have to investigate with linux unlocking methods.
thanks to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1261898 (credits to the_laser and ff0000) i managed to run msm7227 script, this is the output:
Code:

but there is one suspicious line (the one with the mmap error)
i dont want to continue installing a custom kerner until im sure that bootloader is unlocked, but s1tool is not avaliable for nonwindows platforms.,,, i just want to check ib bootloader is unlocked now.
i have read in other threads about power on with the volume button pressed, but nothings happens.
ps: this thread maybe should go in the one i told but i cannot post on it.

HUAWEI Y201 PRO "Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18" not working

Hey guys,
Just get the phone, so nothing is changed except turning on "debugging mode"
It's a HUAWEI Y201 PRO running Android 4.0.3
I like to use some apps as root and therefore I tried Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18
Cause I'm running Ubuntu I configured /etc/udev/rules.d/99-android.rules and added the phone there.
adb is installed and seems to work well
Code:
[email protected]:~$ adb devices
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
78F5FD159EAB device
and running the script:
Code:
[email protected]:~/Downloads/Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18$ sudo ./RunMe.sh
======================================================================
= This script will root your Android phone with adb restore function =
= Script by Bin4ry (thanks to Goroh_kun and tkymgr for the idea) =
= Idea for Tablet S from Fi01_IS01 =
= (18.12.2012) v17 =
= ported to Linux by Kamistral (15.09.2012), =
= updated by codeworkx (01.10.2012) =
======================================================================
Device type:
1) Normal
2) Special (for example: Sony Tablet S, Medion Lifetab)
x) Unroot
Make a choice:
1
Normal mode enabled!
Checking if i should run in Normal Mode or special Sony Mode
Please connect device with ADB-Debugging enabled now ...
remote object '/system/bin/ric' does not exist
remote object '/system/app/Backup-Restore.apk' does not exist

Now unlock your device and confirm the restore operation.
Please look at your device and click RESTORE!

Successful, going to reboot your device in 10 seconds!
Waiting for device to show up again ...
Copying files to it's place ...
mount: permission denied (are you root?)
You can close all open command-prompts now!
After reboot all is done! Have fun!
Bin4ry
Press key to exit ...
So there is trouble with mounting it. If I did everything in the right way the script seems not working for HUAWEI Y201 PRO
Maybe someone of you could add the phone.
BTW in the head is still v17 instead of v18
Have fun

Is this based on the cwm v2 for ics? If so then does it have the cwm bug where you have to flash the cwm.zip within cwm?

[SOLVED] stuck on sony logo after trying to root :S

alohaa guys,first post and thread
sinds i cant post in the developers thread
ill post here
as the title says im stuck on the sony logo,after trying to root my z1c
flashtool still see my phone,but it says :device connected with USB debugging off
i tried a couple of times to get in the recovery menu,boot phone,and press either volume up or down S:
nothing ever happens it just shows the sony logo and dissapears,then it comes back again :S
i got the proper files on the mirco sd card,as written in the tutorial
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2642081
any help is appriciated,and i will look further also in the trheads if i can find a solution for this,but havent found anything yet,if there is any

I made the mistake to first connect the phone to the PC and then running flash tool. Try to start the flashtool first. When it asks You to connect the phone do so ( I think in fastboot mode).
Then the ftf files should be flashed properly and the phone boot up normally

yes flash tool was already running before,so it detects the phone,i tried flashing again and this time it worked,eg just the flashing
at .16 of the tutorial i posted a link of i flashed D5503_14.3.A.0.681_Generic_UK-nosystem.ftf ,but then afterward,still same logo from sony comes and goes,but it doesnt get in recovery mode S:
before i flash anything more,ill wait for anwers,i geuss overflashing doesnt exist but i very uncertian of what im doing now
btw thanks for the quick reply
edit this is what unroot gave me http ://i61.tinypic.com/jhufyg.png

Well, I'm a noob as well
I did the root process with instructions from another thread which was called noob proof it doesn't unlock the bootloader though. I don't have the link right now. But it is one on the top of the forum.
Btw the rooting process of this phone is IMHO very complicated.
Edit: sorry, I didn't see it was this thread you are talking about. I used the same ?
Gesendet von meinem D5503 mit Tapatalk

Please start again from step 1 of the guide. Post the output of dualrecovery installer once you run it.
Bootloop can be caused by multiple mistakes the user did.

guys thanks for the help,i managed to root my xperia z1c
and i think i know what went wrong,the first time i used Z1C-lockeddualrecovery2.7.123-BETA.installer
with option 3 [Installation on unrooted ROM]
at exact same time windows explorer crashed dont know why,but that resulted in a protocol failure??,and afterwards could not connect to device
error :device not found , it said a few times
this is why i could not get in the recoverymode
after starting at step 1 again
and i could start/boot with the flashed docomo firmware,i was very reliefed (btw whats up with that docomo sheep walking on the screen lol)
and useing Z1C-lockeddualrecovery2.7.123-BETA.installer, install.bat for the 2nd time i saw the difference

Try with this file and easyroot v8.

The output looks like it says v10 but the content of folder /files is definitely not from v10. So I guess you mixed something.
The problem is that it can not cd to the folder /files, so are you sure you unpacked everything?

Are you wearing a towel on that pic? That's not a requirement for towelroot to work.

I think some of us are not being successful because of some small barriers/details. The easyroot seems to work very nicely. I re-did the FTF and root process to see if I would have the same problems:
1) First I started with a fresh stock FTF flash: I chose UK Generic 108, though I'm sure any of the 108 FTF's will be fine. (D5503_14.4.A.0.108_Generic_UK_1279-4053.ftf).
2) Then of course made sure I had the Z1Compact ADB drivers installed. I believe if you install Sony PC Companion, it comes with these drivers (correct me if I'm wrong?). But you don't want PC Companion to interfere with the rooting process so if you have PC Companion installed, make sure it is closed / exited / gone from the system tray!
3) Then downloaded the Easy root v10 from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2784900
This easyroot method is great - it roots, AND allows read/write access to the system area (if you need it).
4) Then extracted easy root v10 to a simple directory (like c:\temp\z1ceasyroot\)
5) At this point, make sure the phone isn't connected to the computer yet. Check to make sure you did the right settings on the phone.
Pausing here because some of you mentioned that easyroot started by saying it couldn't find the towelroot APK. I got this same error message - this was when I realized I had forgotten to do the USB Debugging & Unknown Sources settings!
Enable USB Debugging
To do this, go into Settings, Phone Info, and tap on the Build Number 7 times. Then go back into Settings, into Developer options, and turn on USB Debugging.
Enable Unknown Sources
Then in Settings, go to Security, and turn on "Unknown Sources"
6) Now you're pretty much ready. Open command prompt and navigate to the easyroot v10 folder.
7) Connect the phone to the PC - NOTE - on a fresh ROM install, the first time you connect the phone to the PC it will offer to install PC Companion. Skip that and tell it to go away.
8) Make sure the phone's screen is on, and not busy with any messages. It may be helpful to set a decent timeout (like 2 minutes) before the screen shuts off.
9) Now run the easyroot install.bat - the reason I mentioned above to have the screen on, is because if you are on a fresh rom install, this will be your first time connecting to the phone via ADB. A notification will pop up on the phone's screen to ask you if you want to allow the ADB connection. Say yes (and check the box so it doesn't bother you with that again).
The easyroot will run and do what it has to do.
NOTE: On my first run, it got stuck at "creating vm (loljavasucks)". I hit CTRL-C to break the process, closed the command prompt window, opened a new one, navigated back to the directory, and tried again.
NOTE: On my 2nd run, it got stuck just after the above, at "cleaning up". I did the same thing (stopped the process and closed the window.)
On the 3rd run, it ran completely.

10) Once that was done, I powered off the phone, back on, and went into the Play Store to get SUPERSU by Chainfire. Once that is done, you're finished. Like it suggests at the end of the rooting process, you may want to donate to the people that worked hard for this root method, install the NUT dual recovery, and backup your TA partition (Backing up your TA is important if you plan on unlocking your Bootloader!)

Using Xperia Z3 D6633 .
I hadn''t upgraded to Lolipop ( still am on 4.4 ) so I took a short cut to root- I could "root" using Kingo Super User Root.
But it wasn't root all the way. System partition cannot be mounted rw . Why do I want rw mount ?
I migrated from another phone where all my apps are in /ext4 partition of my sd .
L2SD on Z3 will not work -"Mount operation not permitted" .
I followed ALL above steps ( X 5 times ) .. and it hangs on the "javasucks" step

What do I do now ? Pl help
( some notes : not sure if this is relevant
One thing - I tried Un-Installing KingoSuper User .. hoping it will put things at zero - just in case it had any bearing on this root installation. It kinda never really uninstalled because it installed itself as system app. Using L2SD I uninstalled it - but it never uninstalled quite. Google play showed it as installed. A reboot- and it was back again to fully installed form . So before running above steps - I froze it and I am still stuck )

It got the recovery in !
and then L2SD could get /ext4 to mount and I could see the old linked folders but I dont know if this is too good to be true. I sill am looking around to see . My previous phone - L2SD had to remount and reboot for the Ext4 to show up.
