first you should deodex all apps and frameworks.
Use android kitchen to do that
then just take all deodexed apps and frameworks and keep it in system
see my deodexed folder
delete my system and keep yours and flash it
bloatware remover will work for c1904 as well you can use above one

Hi, is it really necessary to deodex before removing bloats? Can't we just delete the apks together with its .odex file?

Hi, is this thread still alive?
I recently after long time updated my C2005 to latest firmware (15.5.a.1.5) and played around a little bit - root, deodex and I've also tried this bloatware removal tool. I found out that flashing that zip actually removes also ActiveSync support (and default android Mail app), which I need for my corporate mail account. Is there an easy way to bring the ActiveSync support back or do I have to reflash the firmware?
If I'll have to reflash - how can I customize the bloatware removal tool (so it will keep the ActiveSync support)?
Thanks

If you don't want it to delete some apps, you have to unpack the *.zip, and edit the META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script (just remove the line of the app you don't want to be deleted)
And here you can download a system dump/only the apps you need of your firmware so you can reinstall Mail and ActiveSync: Dump

[SS][DS][SHARE][FLASHABLE]Full Root (Remount-Reboot fix) by [NUT]

If you root your Xperia phone using Framaroot(Gandalf Exploit), and edit /system files, a random reboot occurs. We have to fix this by Remount-Reboot fix which was originally created by [NUT]. ADB version of this tool has already been shared here and here .
But it requires the use of PC to fully root your phone. I found a flashable version of the same tool and wanted to share with you guys
Download
http://nut.xperia-files.com/?dlid=cmVtb3VudHJlYm9vdGZpeA==
Instructions
1)Download framaroot apk
2)Open the app, select Gandalf exploit ("Install SuperSU" should be selected in the dropdown menu)
3)Keep trying until you get Success notification It will notify you to reboot your device
4)Reboot. SuperSU should be visible in your app drawer. If not, repeat the steps 1-4
5)If busybox is installed, fine and good. Or else the tool will install for you
6)Reboot into recovery and flash the zip file
7)Your phone is now fully rooted
You can test whether your phone is fully rooted by modifying any system app(Like you can rename a bloat app in /system/app) and the phone shouldn't reboot. If it reboots, then your phone isn't fully rooted.
Note: As soon as you have installed this rootfixer and you saw it replace the already installed busybox, remove any and all busybox installer apps you have, it will probably break the rootfixer if you update busybox using that app. The version this rootfixer installs is rock solid and is used by most if not every kernel dev working on Xperia line kernels.

Will this work with Flash Gordon?
This message was brought to you from my Sony Xperia M C1905 using Tapatalk.

Number 6 - reboot into recovery and flash zip
Yeah if you have an unlocked bootloader and elixer kernel which is the only way to have recovery on this phone so far.
Alternatively flash Gordon should work but technically needs full root to flash it via that app

Yes, you will have to have CWM to flash this obviously. The main aim to create this thread is to enable the users to get full root when you dont have PC with you.
Currently, there are two kernels - ELixir and the 'stock kernel with cwm by alvinhochun'. You can create a flashable version of these kernels and use them, So you dont have to depend on PC to get full root.

The reason why it reboots if you edit system files its because the phone is half rooted if you use Framaroot(Gandalf Exploit) you have to full root it and if you full root it you don't need to flash this

OP dont get me wrong but for now cwm is for only UBL....
in UBL reboot fix is not needed...UBL can mount systems...and can edit them without any issue
in locked BL u cant flash anything...so y did u created this/?
and framaroot wont work on dual sim..

Help: Root Xperia ZL with Android 5.0.2

Hello XDA.
I own a sony xperia zl with android 5.0.2.
I would like to ask how can root the new version of Android? Until 4.4.4 it was relatively simple.
!!!! Please respond only if you have a specific tutorial !!!!
Thanks:good:

1.- Download a lollipop firmware ZIP and SuperSU ZIP
2.- Flash stock JB/KK with flashtools and root it
3.- Install recovery and boot
4.- Flash ZIP lollipop and (without exiting from recovery) install SuperSU ZIP

generally, My way is :
- root with kingroot (check on gg)
- replace kinguser with super user using Super-sume (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=darkslide.com.supersume&hl=en) or root.sh script (nok for me)
BRs

i use kingroot ...fast and easy...

To install Xposed, you need to do the following
1. Root the phone
2. Install a custom recovery (CWM, TWRP)
3. Flash the Xposed framework through the recovery
4. Install the Xposed APK.

Can I install Xposed on rooter HTC One M8 with stock ROM?

I tried to install xposed, but failed.
I need to know, can I install xposed with stock rom, but device is rooted and TWRP installed.
If yes, show me flashable zip file.
Regards

xposed needs to modify system files to install. The system files on this device are write protected, even with root. So you need the kernel mod to remove write protection. If Sense Marshmallow the wp_mod from the following thread should work (only need to flash wp_mod, not the whole ROM in the thread): https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/development/rom-stock-unlocked-developer-sense-7-t3262894
Make a backup in TWRP before flashing, just in case.
