From Stock 5.1.1 to Custom 5.1.1 - Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear XDA Members,
I currently run stock 5.1.1 (14.6.A.1.236) with no modifications whatsoever and a locked bootloader.
I would like to install a custom rom (PAC-ROM LP-MR1 5.1.1) on my Z1C.
I did some research and these are the steps i came up with:
1. install sdk and drivers
2. unlock bootloader
3. fastboot flash recovery "fota.img" (shouldn't it specify somehow that i need it to be flashed on the fota partition?)
4. factory reset/wipe
5. install custom rom + gapps
Coming from a locked bootloader a fully stock phone is there anything else i need to do like a new bootloader or something?
Also I'll be doing it through Win 10 64bit, I hope that isn't a problem.
Any advice will be highly appreciated.
Thank you very much

First things first... Root. If you already did that then you're on the right track.
1. If you're not doing major development stuff, don't install the whole sdk. See here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48915118 There may be issues you'll have to work with on newer versions of Windows. I haven't done it on anything later than 7. Keep in mind, though, that you won't need the computer to flash your boot img or rom, but you will need it to unlock the bootloader.
2. -
3. You can do this with an app called Rashr on your phone with root. Just download a recovery img, then open Rashr and follow the instructions.
4-5. Boot into recovery, full wipe, (system data and caches), flash rom zip and gapps zip. Maybe best to not flash more than that at once to start, in case there's a problem and you have no way to figure out what it is.
BTW, PacMan is a great choice. I've been using it for months.

Thanks a lot for your reply.
I was reading on the cyanogen mod wiki how-to for our phone and it doesn't require a prior root.
I did those steps on my xperia m and it worked and i had never rooted it, the only difference is that i flashed cyanogen recovery and install cm12 which basically roots the phone and then flashed fota recovery.
Should i go this way again to gain root or would you recommend an easier root method for my stock build which is the newest.
If you recommend another root method when should it occur? prior unlocking the bootloader or afterwards?
Thanks

If this is your first time unlocking your bootloader, make sure you backup your DRM-Keys! You need to be rooted for that.
They are lost when bootloader gets unlocked. Some features in regards of camera performance are lost for example.

True, if bl is unlocked, then you can flash the kernel and recovery via fastboot, then flash your rom. You may need the boot.img from your rom zip file. Then use commands 'fastboot flash boot' for the boot img, and 'fastboot flash recovery' for recovery. If you're rooted already, you can just do it on the phone.

This is fantastic.
Do you think itll be ok to fastboot flash boot boot.img from cm12.1 rom zip then fastboot flash recovery fota.img instead of the cyanogen recovery that comes with cm12.1?
Do you think that might cause an issue?

Should be fine. It's also a 1 second operation to extract boot.img from your rom zip, which you need already downloaded and on your SD card before you flash imgs. You might even be fine without flashing the boot img - can't hurt to try. Just flash the recovery and reboot and see if you get a purple light. Then, volume button changes purple to orange, and you're in recovery. Some recoveries don't work with some kernels, (been my experience).

I now have cm12.1 with cyanogen recovery.
Which recovery is best for our phone, which one do you use?
I can find 2 options:
FOTA TWRP 2.8.6.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/fota-twrp-recovery-amami-t2909719)

I have only used xzdr with stock rom. I think in the past I've had it not work for me on CM, so I just stick to straight twrp by default. I know NUT has always been hard at work and has made steady improvements, so maybe not an issue now. Personally I realized that I only need 1 recovery anyway. There's a newer Twrp here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/twrp-v2-8-6-0-f2fs-z1-z1c-z2-z3-z3c-t3098573

One important fact that has already been probably mentioned is that installing custom roms on your XPERIA will worsen your camera, esp the front one. Keep this in mind.

[Q] Root for Sony T2 ultra Model #D316

I have looked all over and see some threads overlapping other threads, however I am not finding anything for the D5316 Model. I am running Android 4.4.2 Build Number 19.1.A.0.486 The kernel version is from Thu Jul 17 10:07:21 2014. I would like to root and get recovery on it to try a faster rom and get rid of the Sony bloatware. If you have been successful or I missed a link on how to do that please point me in the correct direction...... Thank you in advance.

EDIT: Apparently, it's working now. All I had to do was reflash the ftf file in flashtool and it was able to keep the custom recovery and boot the phone past it....go figure.
Thanks for posting this, I am having some trouble myself and it's really frustrating. I am able to flash both CWM and TWRP. I am even able to boot into these recoveries but I cannot get the damn thing to boot past it. Pretty sure it's the kernel but I cannot find a place that will tell me step by step as to getting custom recovery on the model of this phone. I am still on 4.4.2. Can you please point me in the right direction?

Yes,
Basically what you have to do is download Dual Recovery and put it on your SD card or internal storage on the phone. Download Supersu 2.40 and do the same thing. Then go to the CWM recovery thread and download that. Follow the instructions there. Once you finish following the instructions just boot into CWM recovery, then flash Dual Recovery. Reboot the phone and wait until you see the green light. Press the down key once you see the green light. It should take you into TWRP. After that flash Super Su and then you reboot and let it boot all the way, done. Make sure you are bootloader unlocked and have working ADB AND FASTBOOT on your PC

Let's back up for a second.....
Give me a breakdown one more time from the very beginning.
1.unlock the bootloader
2. Download "dual recovery"and place on sd card
3. Download superuser and place on sd card
4. Install cwm recovery
5. Flash the dual recovery.....why? Is there something wrong with cwm?
6.Flash superuser
At what point is the phone rooted? Does flashing SU do that? I have used tools in the past on other phones. This is my first Sony phone.
If you care to, or the time to...could you please paste the links to each step (assuming I have them all correct or I am not missing something)
I really appreciate you helping this much I was ready to give up on this phone, cause I couldn't get any help! :what::banghead:
just the topic I was looking for!
mind if I follow this? I just bought this phone yesterday. Looking for a way to get Lollipop on it.
I was hoping to get a reply by now. Which model# do you have
I just flashed FXP ASOP 2/23 after I was able to get 2/08 running on the device and now the device won't boot past the android logo. I can get it flashboot mode and rewrite the 3 imgs (boot, system, and user data) however it still won't boot.
Any Ideas?

I am just trying to get root and recovery
I was able to get root by doing the following.
Flash the cwm boot.img. You will not be able to boot android but you will be able to boot to recovery.
Flash the dual recovery from cwm. Go ahead and flash supersu zip as well.
Reboot. Wait till you see the green light (not pink) flash and press the volume down button to boot to twrp or volume up to boot phils recovery.
I used twrp. Once in TWRP, I flashed the rooted stock firmware (mainly to restore a fully working boot.img), and reflashed dual recovery from twrp. Also flash the newest supersu zip.
Maybe a easier way, but worked for me.

How do I backup my stock recovery?

I want to be able to flash my stock recovery when I no longer want TWRP or CWM. How would I go about doing this?

This is not possible to backup your stock recovery. When you need that you can download it simply (base on your phone's build number). Also you can extract stock recovery frome your ota zip update(the file with img format inside of firmware folder)

Actually, the following usually works:
This has to be done before flashing custom recovery. Unlock bootloader, then fastboot boot recovery.img
With "recovery.img" being a TWRP file located in your fasboot folder. This will boot into TWRP without actually flashing it. From there, you can pick recovery in the backup options, to backup stock recovery.
But yes, I agree that stock recovery images are pretty easy to obtain from these forums, or extracting from a OTA or ROM.zip.

Hi, redpoint73...
Maybe I'm missing something here, but I'm not seeing an option to backup the Recovery in TWRP 2.8.7.0... Just Boot, Cache, System, Data and Android Secure are available (see attached screenshot). I remote booted TWRP from my laptop, as I did when I rooted Marshmallow around a fortnight ago, in order to keep the stock recovery intact.
It would certainly be useful to be able to backup the stock recovery via TWRP... I just haven't found a way of accomplishing it .
-----
But a possible option to backup the stock recovery would be to use the Flashify app...
Remote boot TWRP from your PC, acquire root, and then run Flashify...
Flashify PlayStore link...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgollner.flashify
XDA discussion thread...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2349847
This app uses <dd=if/of> commands to backup and potentially restore the boot and/or recovery images.
Although it does require root to work.
I've used Flashify on my Nexus 7 and Nexus 9 in the past, but never on my M8, except to backup... never to restore, so I cannot personally vouch for it's safety on the M8.
-----
What I'm unsure of about Flashify...
@redpoint73, @ckpv5, maybe you guys could shed some light on this...
Would such a <dd=if/of> created backup of stock recovery be flashable via fastboot?
And would it be safe to do so?
I know that TWRP uses <dd=if/of> commands, having looked through TWRPs logs... but I'm not quite sure how fastboot works when it comes to flashing stuff, and I'm very wary about doing it myself or recommending it for others.
Normally, you'd just use the Flashify app to restore any recovery/boot.img backups you've previously made...
But Flashify requires root to work, and with an unrooted system, this is isn't viable. So could one use fastboot in the normal way to flash such a previously made backup of the stock recovery?
-----
Anyhow, it's not critical at the moment for me, because I've not flashed TWRP to my M8, my stock recovery remains intact.
-----
I would recommend anybody reading this seeking to root their Marshmallow M8 to just remote boot TWRP from their PC with fastboot boot twrp.img (ie., don't actually flash it), perform an unrooted Nandroid backup first...
...and then flash Chainfire in the usual way.
This leaves the stock recovery intact, which will be required for future OTAs.
And there still might be some...
My Nexus 9 receives monthly security patches from Google (probably after the StageFright debacle of last year), and it may well be that the M8 will also continue to receive security patches, despite it being nearly two years old.
So you need to be ready... with an unrooted/untouched Nandroid of your own creation and the stock recovery.
I know that Chainfires systemless root method is supposed to address this issue, but if you're going to mess with system, you should have a Nandroid backup anyway...
...just in case.
Rgrds,
Ged.
Funny, I use the fastboot boot option to boot into TWRP saving my original recovery.

[SOLVED] Installing TWRP and rooting (Currently CMR & CM 12.1)

Hello everyone, i'm pretty new to software modding (started again yesterday) but i have successfully customized my previous Nexus 4 with Cyanogenmod in the past and other things thanks to very easy guides online.
Now that the guarantee is void, i'd like to mod my Xperia Z1 Compact.
After a lot of tears and Boot Loops™ i finally managed to install Cyanogen Recovery and Cyanogenmod.
Now i'd like to switch to TWRP, as it provides Nandroid backups, which CMR does not, but i can't find any reliable source for this.
The device doesn't show up in the devices list on their website, so i'm really unsure what to do as i don't want to brick my phone :laugh:
Also pretty much same situation with rooting, there are tons of various ways to root the device but the only tool i'd trust (Flashtool) doesn't allow me to root my phone.
Again i don't know which source to trust or what to do...
Any help would be highly appreciated!
Regards, Daniel

Rooting with unlocked BL is easy with adb/fastboot. Just download twrp IMG and copy it to /adb folder, and download SuperSU zip file and copy to phone. Then connect phone in fastboot mode, (power off, hold volume up, and connect cable, release volume when you see blue led), and use fastboot command 'fastboot flash recovery [name of twrp file].img'. Now you have recovery. Reboot to recovery and flash SuperSU.

I have a brand new Pixel XL from Verizon that I received today and was successful in unlocking. However, I tried to root and now I am stuck on bootloop. I cannot post in DEVELOPMENT because I haven't posted here in years (haven't had ANDROID in a while). Can anyone help? I am able to access via fastboot (I believe) but I must be flashing the wrong images. I don't want to brick this nice new day-old device. I have been at it for 5 hours via research on my own, but now I am looking for someone that can help me via P.M. or what it may take. I really want to get back to enjoying this device!

Read the third post in the thread below to get set up and back to stock. Then we will work on root. If you tried to root and you bootlooped it then you used the wrong​ SU.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel/help/stupidly-bootloop-help-t3554242
1. Download a ROM. A stock version is probably in the forums somewhere if that's what you want.
2. Download TWRP image and zip from the TWRP thread.
3. Download SuperSU from the SuperSU thread.
4. Download a vendor image. There's no "official" vendor image thread AFAIK, but you can grab one from the Pure Nexus rom thread. NMF26V is compatible with all 7.1.1 ROMs & stock.
Now you have two options:
Fast: Put the ROM, TWRP(zip only), SuperSU and vendor image on USB flash drive, then connect the USB 3 to USB C adapter to your flash drive. Don't connect it to the phone yet. An external HDD/SSD should also work if that's all you've got.
Slow: While in TWRP(Instructions below) push the ROM, TWRP(zip only), SuperSU and vendor image files to your phone through ADB with "adb push C:\file_path\ /sdcard/" sans quotes. You will need to do this for each file, or alternatively push a folder containing the four files. adb file transfer is very slow.
5. Boot your phone to the bootloader, and connect it to your computer. This can be achieved by holding volume down and power from an off state.
Note: If your device is still bootlooping you won't be able to get to the bootloader. Hold volume up and power until the device shuts off to get out of the bootloop temporarily, then boot to bootloader.
6. In a command window, "fastboot boot twrp.img"
7. Connect your flash drive to your phone if you chose that option, or push the files through adb if you chose that option
8. Flash TWRP zip, ROM and vendor image. STAY IN TWRP
9. Return to TWRP's home screen > advanced > file manager. Scroll down until you see 'fstab.marlin'(in the root '/' directory). Tap on 'fstab.marlin' and delete it. Skipping this step means SuperSU won't install.
10. Flash SuperSU zip, reboot to system and you're done.

Thanks for your assistance. I now have root installed and I think I'm good except for one thing. I keep thinking TWRP is installed but for some reason when I reboot to bootloader, then select reboot recovery mode, it takes me to android recovery. I am used to recovery taking me to TWRP. I know TWRP works but I feel like I'm temporarily flashing it each time or something. I even installed the twrp app and I see I can flash zips that way, etc, but I wanted to know if you knew how to make the phone boot to TWRP in recovery? Or is that necessary?

I dont do it that way on this phone. TWRP and SU are modifying the same parts of the phone, and there are cases where it could conflict. Rare, not a big deal, but since i don't need TWRP installed i don't.
To install it ypu first boot to it.
Fastboot boot twrpFilename.
Then from within TWRP you install the TWRP zip.
Make sure it is TWRP RC1
All set
Thanks again for your help. I am running pure ROM as I mentioned and I seem to like it. Do you K or if Franco works with Pure or do you have a suggestion on a good rom/kernel? Is there anything else that you can suggest I should be using with the new phone? I remember there used to be tools that you could install that allowed you to customize the system even further but the name escapes me. . Is there anything like that or even a theme tool which is a must have when you are rooted and running custom roms? No big deal if not. Very happy with where I stand now. Really appreciate you getting me back up and running!
You are most welcome. I don't ROM so I don't know what kernels work with what roms for sure. But my understanding is that they are all pretty universal. I run stock with Franco.
Other than that i dont mod much. Ad blocker, black themes and a few adjustments to Franco.

Im running pure and elementalx with excellent results.
?Tapped from my pure pixelXl?
have you ever seen an issue where the phone boots to twrp even though everything was working fine? It starts happening if I do a restart. Then no matter what it boots into TWRP unless I wipe again? I believe it's happening after I flash root but I'm going out of my mind with trial and error. Any help would be appreciated.

HELLO!!! I understand any frustrations you may be having, as the pixel devices have changed a good bit for us as far as development. Anyways. I'm just going to throw some knowledge out there, then proceed to help get you up and running!
You couldn't post in the development section because of your post count, but even if you could, it would have been in the wrong section and it would have been removed, or moved to the questions section.
Also, I see someone has pointed it out earlier, but I'll say it again just to make sure everything is clear. The command you were running "fastboot boot TWRP.img" only boots TWRP temporarily. You are suppose to have two files, one IMG file and one zip file. You boot the IMG file, then once you're in TWRP, you flash the zip file, then reboot to recovery and you will have installed TWRP properly.
With root, flashing wrong files or using the outdated root method will cause boot loops. The correct way to root (again already been said) is the get TWRP up and running, delete the fstab file (see earlier post) then flash SuperSU and reboot. Just throwing this out there Incase someone comes across it, if you manage to boot loop your device due to to rooting, you can fastboot flash franco's kernel and it will fix the bootloop (,but you won't have root) this isn't the correct way to fix it, but it will get you back up and running without downloading the large factory image.
***About to edit this post to continue giving more info***
Here is a correct guide and good template to get you running.
start by flashing a clean factory image, then let it boot and get it set up.
Reboot to fastboot, fastboot boot TWRP IMG then flash TWRP zip using the latest versions (RC1 is latest, pm me for more info).
Reboot the phone to recovery to ensure TWRP stuck.
Go-to advanced, file manager in TWRP and find the fstab.marlin file and delete.
Then you can go ahead and flash the latest SuperSU (I use 2.79 sr3) and when it's done reboot to system and verify root.
After rooting you can go ahead and flash a kernel if you want, I use elemental which you can flash in TWRP, but see the kernel instructions prior to flashing.
Reboot and you have a nice stock ROM with root and kernel.
For flashing Roms, kind of follow the same template, most Roms require you to flash part of or the whole latest factory image.
If your on a clean install, go ahead and install TWRP as mentioned above.
Then use TWRP to install whatever ROM you want per ROM developer instructions.
Side note, some Roms replace the TWRP with cwm or stock recovery, so it's always nice to flash the TWRP zip after flashing a ROM.
After flashing ROM, boot to system to make sure all is well, then boot back to recovery and follow instructions above for root/kernel.
As far as the problem you're having now, it usually comes from flashing outdated SuperSU images. Do a search for 2.79 sr3 and use it to root (pm me if you need help)
You might have to start clean one more time, And flash factory image.

There is absolutely no need to delete the fstab file anymore. That only needed to be done when TWRP was still alpha 2, and almost three versions of su earlier.
ALL roms replace TWRP with stock recovery unless you are using lineage then you will get Cyanogenmod recovery, so reflashing TWRP before booting into system is a must.
If you are flashing root and or custome kernel and end up in a bootloop, flashing the stock boot.img to both slots via:
'fastboot flash --slot _a boot boot.img'
'fastboot flash --slot _b boot boot.Img'
will fix the issue and you will be able to boot up just fine. Again you will have to reboot into TWRP from the bootloader and reflash the zip. When you are done flashing the boot.img's you might as well just
'Fastboot boot TWRP-file.img'
Then install the zip!

[Q]E988 Boot certification verify

I have kitkat 4.2.2 stockbase, rooted, trying to install cwm but stuck in the secure booting error boot certification verify.
Previously i installed rom manager app and flash the cwm from the app. After reboot to recovery, only stock recovery that showed, then i reboot to system, install freegee in order to flash the cwm but fail as freegee doesnt support gpro kitkat.
After that i install gpro kitkat recovery and flash the cwm from the app, success, reboot to recovery but stuck on the error.
I uninstalled rom manager and freegee, but still no luck to get the flashed cwm recovery,stuck in secure booting error.
Any suggestion or thread reference? Why is very difficult to install custom rom on this device?i plan to install carbon rom :crying:
Thank you in advance.

Btw looks like you are the only person that still active in this thread...really appreciate it...thank you very much
You're complicating it too much, to be honest
Just do it this way:
1. flash stock 4.1.2 and keep it that way
2. root, install Freegee, install initial recovery (twrp, cwm, doesn't mater), update it to TWRP from forums (2.8 version is preferred)
3. you're ready to flash create stock backup and flash roms.
If I remember, all those changes are already implemented in both SlimLP and Carbon. Slim has newer kernel and gpu drivers, and that's it.
So you are saying i just flash the rom as is without any further change?Noted shady...i will inform you the result

Ive tried your suggestion with the following result:
a. Flash to stock 4.1.2 (v10e) : success but then the master file i downloaded is gone
b. Root, install freegee, initial recovery: success
c. Update to twrp 2.8 using twrp manager: success
d. Flash to Carbon: fail, canot enter recovery mode with message secure booting error,boot certification verify
So i just rollback to kitkat stock

So, you can't boot TWRP at all? It seems that TWRP you installed isn't lokified. Are you sure you've installed TWRP 2.8? I remember flashing it directly via flashify on my device and it worked.. Also, check TWRP thread for lokified zip, I think someone posted that.
Edit: you see now why almost everyone abandoned this device

After installing freegee's twrp, reboot to recovery. Then, it might be OK.
After that, reboot system and use flashify, the free version will do.
You can either choose to download the file or chose from your internal / external memory.
I'm using the latest version TWRP 3.0.2.0.
If it doesn't work at first, go back to start and try again...

Thanks for respond, i have to download the jb stockbase again as the file used for lg flash tool is missing, looks like flashtool keep it somewhere...btw, when i use flashtool to flash the jb stock (offline mode), it.doesnt complete 100%, at 99% device was successfully boot and normal but state in flashtool screen is 99% and message to.retry is showned up.
Fyi, after flashed to jb, i cant execute fastboot flash command, the result is waiting for any device, but adb devices command return expected result. Enable debugging setting is already checked also.
Quiet interesting this device...salut to programmers of this device...

G Pro doesn't support fastboot commands (or is really limited in that field, I'm not sure what to say/think), due to some mess LG made. Mine didn't even want to 'adb reboot bootloader', it simply rebooted device back to system, and was pain in the ass for many things because It has custom download mode, it has custom boot sequence, everything is locked down... everything is different from everything else you're used to. Thank God back then a+b OTA system didn't exist, we'd never get any AOSP support not...
Do as g0at1 said - flash TWRP from Freegee, boot it to make sure it works, reboot back to system and flash newer TWRP from Flashify or any other tool like that one. I did have E988 (just Taiwan variant), and never had that much issues, nearly every time it was a straightforward 'flash JB KDZ, root it manually, Freegee, newer TWRP, backup, flash ROM', and trust me, that one was "revived" many times.
In the end, if even that doesn't help, flash CWM from Freegee, and update it with Philz Touch for E980. I think it will support Lollipop ROMs without any issues, just don't ever boot directly into it if you're not ready to mess with dd from recovery mode - always use adb.

This device was one of the hardest devices to work with... and I had Note N7000 with bad MMC which nearly bricked five times running unrooted stock firmwares Samsung provided. And Tegra-based Galaxy S2 clone with many hardware and software issues on stock... And many nameless devices with chips made by "big" vendors, like Allwinner, Rockchip etc which got some older CyanogenMod version builds with some or even complete success... And I never, never had that much issues porting stuff to any of these above, as I had with G Pro. Heck, working on a overclocking and underclocking for G Pro took me nearly two months of coding, testing, scratching everything off and starting from the beginning to just get it to some functional level and make it work as intended... and when I look at that code, I still have a feeling that it isn't completed and that some fixes are still necessary. I won't even start with GPU issues, I've spent more time than I'd like to admit on patching sessions.

:good::good::good::good: salut to you...the true programmer..never quit..yes im agree with you...i had played with nexus 1,2,3 before but never found something like this...
OK then, i will try g0at1 suggestion, hopefully it works... Like you said its only JB, root, freegee, newer twrp, backup, flash custom
Update
I couldnt wait to try again,i cant download the jb stock for a while due to internet quota limitation, so i did this:
1. Flash to stock that i still have v20c 4.4.2
2. Reboot to stock recovery then reboot to system
3. Run roottool.kitkat batch script (found from http://www.gadgetstroop.com), reboot to recovery, sideload installation of root script with result success
4. Reboot to system, run Root Checker to ensure device has been rooted
5. Install cwm recovery with GPro Kitkat Recovery 6.0.4.4 with result success
6. Reboot to cwm recovery success and do nandroid backup
7. Reboot to system, install flashify, download latest twrp official 3.0.2 and flash it using flashify: success
8. Reboot to recovery, now the recovery become twrp
9. Install package Carbon 5.1 unofficial: fail with message "cant install this package on top of incompatible data"

I use SlimLP for a long time because it's the only one that works smoothly for me. You might not have any trouble flashing it Through the latest TWRP.
Have fun!
