DMR Keys....? - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

I was wondering if any body knows how to check if the DMR keys arg still active or if they are gone after a rooted process or just to check thanks

It's still there if you've just rooted. It'll disappear if you unlock your bootloader, so make a TA backup (check the development section for tutorial)

Thanks for your response. I just rooted so I hope they will be there but if I want to check how do I do that thanks.

I would like to know how to check to. I tried switching the engine on and off when I was completely stock and I could not tell a difference at all.

You don't need to check. Rooting does not modifiy the TA partition. Nothing can change this unless you actually delete it yourself. (then you are actually given a prompt before you actually delete it.)
You could play a video and compare them. you will see the different especially in characters faces.

I thank you all but. is there a way to check. just because and thanks again

I'm trying to help you help yourself. A thread full of posters reporting no issues should be enough to show you it's a decent and safe app. The worst that will happen is you'll have to reflash, so make sure you're backup just in case, but how many users in that thread have claimed they've had to.

You're the type of person who shouldn't be rooting their phone in the first place... You didn't search very hard at all...
And no, rooting does not give you "free" apps. It suddenly doesn't make the Market free, or unlock your phone. Rooting gives applications access to the operating system. e.g. tether, Titanium Backup, etc.
Use Titanium Backup to save all your apps & data.
Ah thanks, the main stuff is more controll after rooting + themes.

Haven't you been reading this thread or any of the others? If you upgraded via SE, non rootable, all you have to do is downgrade back to your previous version and then use the xRecovery + pre rooted 2.0.2.A.0.24 by Z method posted all over the Xperia X10 general and q&a forums. With these you also can enable JIT. Other guys didn't spell it out, they just provided links. I'll spell it out but I don't have links for you. Between both you have everything you need right here in this thread.

i hope someone found ways to root x10 with one-click-method, because i really don't understand how to use flasher / xrecovery
(EDIT)
Can someone help me, how to downgrade this un-root-able firmware to the previous one?
After downgrade, what i need to do is follow the 3 link above posted by xperiax10iuser, right?

HI XperiaX10iUser,
Thank you for saving my life
I tired the first method but kept getting NullPoint error, then i tried the nonGUI flasher and it worked like a charm. now i am reinstating the system image created by Xrecovery.
AgentJBM : i understand your frustration, however there was no direct link and the methods mentioned were not as clear for a Noob like me.

I wasn't frustrated. I'm just trying to help other noobs realize that you're not going to find one thread with A-Z. They give you A, H, P, and Z. You have to use search and links to do the ones in between. I'm a noob myself, just a step of two ahead of you, who understands both sides. They aren't being short or impatient. They just expect you to be able to navigate xda if you're going to be messing with your phone.

[Q] root issues

Hello guys, well today I updated my phone from android 1.6 to 2.1 via the SEUS. I tried to root my device but failed in vain. I tried out the z4 root 1.30 but that didn't work either. I am a bit agreeably using the flash method. Is there any workable alternative to get my cell rooted?i would prefer a single click approach.
Thanks
In a nut shell, no. You need to flash back to 504 firmware and start from there, as said on AF.
Flash and debrand with THIS, install THIS, then THIS, and you'll have an up to date, debranded and rooted X10.

To be frank I really have no idea about flash. I have heard that it is very risky. If something goes wrong then the device ends up getting bricked.

my x10 flasher is getting downloaded. Before i start the process, i wanted to ask you whether by flashing will my xperia get rooted? because for custom xperia recovery to work they mention that they NEED a ROOTED device. also they need an app called the busy box.
what should i do?
Is there any video tut regarding the procedure? I downloaded all the things necessary for the procedure.

then installed the Disable SMS to MMS Conversion apk(http://www.villainrom.co.uk/forum/mi...ion.1/viewfile), enabled it on the xposed apk and works like a charm.
I've tested this methods and it's proven to work. Although read a lot before you flash because flashing something not proper will easily soft brick or even hard brick your device. If you have doubts, put them in the correct place for the effect, or just don´t flash.

[Q] Rooting, DMR's and other things with my new Xperia

Good day, first of all I thank you for reading this post haha ​​and it would be great to help me and clarify several questions that I have with this beautiful terminal I just bought ...
Well ... I really like that about rooting and other stuff in my phone's haha ​​and now with this I have read many threads about these things...
The first thing that worries me are the DMR's involving the BIONZ, X-Reality and other things ... MY FIRST DOUBT IS: when i Root the device, I lost the dmr's? ONLY rooting and maybe installing a custom recovery... or only lose by opening the bootloader?
I have android 4.4.2 compilation 17.1.2 A.0.314 i can root my device and backup my dmr's without losing them?
I hope you can help me friends, I wish you an excellent day
You will lose your DMR by unlocking your bootloader so you need to back them up before doing that.
you can root your device now and backup the keys before unlocking the later on you can apply them back use the search tool to find all the threads that you want .
For now just backup your keys by rooting.
Good luck
