root my xperia sola... help. - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

hi, im currently on .154. I just read the instructions that you have to flash .110 kernel, install root and reflash .154 kernel. Im worried i will loose my data in this process. Can anyone tell me how to root my phone without flashing those kernels? some help would be much appreciated.

I dont think there is any other way to do so........... Create a backup instead and then go for it.............
Edit: Please if you try the below mentioned method just let me knw if it works???????????

Hey mate, You can flash the Kernel alone without losing any Data. Just untick all the Wipe options on the right top side and include only the Flash Kernel option (Tick Exclude for all other options ) Check attached pic for more info

Edit: If you are flashing the entire rom, ie if you're upgrading from GB to ICS or something, you'll lose your data. No questions there.But if you are talking about rooting process involving flashing Kernels, my above answer is valid

thanks a lot for your tips

[SOLVED] Can not see internal memory anymore after play around update custome roms

I install many custom roms, kernel even baseband. Now I wonder why my phone can not install any software via market. I check and can not see the internal memory, could anyone help me out?

Im guessing its due to a missing framework file or something
Do a clean flash to .42 or .62
and then install a ROM the proper way
MOD please move to right section )
What do you mean flash .42 or .62? Flash kernel or baseband or original rom? where can i find the link please?
Here I send you the screen of CWM that I tried to restore from original backup but no luck because it prompt there is no MTD partition "userdata"
I don't know where to post suitably sorry.
Either but flash a full ftf, search for links or try wotanclient.
Assuming you'll want to root 42 Is your logical choice, it makes sense to keep one handy for emergencies anyway
Problem is already solved by wotanclient , thz buddy!

How to know my original Kernel Version?

Hi,
I just rooted my SGS2 using the following kernel: CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-PROPER-v5.4-CWM5, the problem is forgot to write down my original data, so is there a way to know it?
and does rooting the phone also changes the Build Number and Baseband Version?
Here is my current data:

"lightbox_next": "Next",

}
search for the correct stock rom..try here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487 anyway, why do u want that for?
build and baseband are not modified by the kernel

Well I'm afraid the kernel I used won't be compatible with the phone, isn't that right?
I'm sorry I'm new to this

If you want to unroot all you have to do is go to www.sammobile.com and download the stock firmware and flash through Odin. You will get your stock Kernel back. So don't worry, try some aftermarket kernels
Sent from my GT-P7510 using xda premium
if it isn't compatible, the phone won't turn on, or pass the Samsunggalaxy GT-I9100 screen. so don't be afraid. just in case, and to be safe, if your phone is working OK right now, you should make a nandroid backup in CWMR (volumeup+home button+power button). and then you can mess with anything you want (except stock kernels made from 9 of july of 2012 to now) and there will be almost no problems
you can try any kernel...not every kernel works fine in terms of battery life and hardware manage. even though is the one that came with your custom rom. the same is for modem(baseband)

No, please just try some and find your personal best fitting rom. Everbody has his own functions he needs, etc
Problem solved...great, I recommend you try the ROMs for yourself...thanks.

I have boost mobile lte
Reflashing your ROM should only be done as a last resort. You can hard brick your device if you don't do it right or use an incompatible ROM. I stress this with all Moto E surnia varients because not all ROMs are available yet. Trust me.
For force close issues, make sure you have a TWRP recovery installed. Boot into it.
Under Advanced, select Fix Permissions. Allow to fix, should take less than 20 seconds.
Reboot
Most of the time this will solve your problem.
Otherwise, you can always try to reinstall the system apps you think might have caused the issue.
If you're not rooted boot into stock recovery, wipe cache, and do a factory reset. Or you can try through the settings, but I don't know if that will work.

Stuck on Android is starting/starting apps

So I went and restored my phone but it seems to be stuck on the optimizing apps/starting apps screen and won't go anywhere else? Anyway I can fix this? I've tried to flash a boost mobile (my carrier) stock rom but I get the same problem.

Which ROM/Kernel are you using? You can get better help if you post in that forum. If you're using stock rom, make sure you're flashing it in the right way, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e-2015/general/stocks-firmwares-moto-e-t3113235 for instructions.

@gameSTICKER has a good point. In addition, have you updated your partitions to the respective version of the ROM you are flashing? Out of curiosity, which build and version stock ROM have you flashed to your xt1526, are you using a custom recovery and, if so, what version?
