Hi guys,
I've been trying to root my XPS for hours now.
Managed to succesfully unlock bootloader. Flashed the 67 rom, not trying to root it using fastboot,
file: sys_xps_root_67_1g.img
it's been stuck on <waiting for device> for a while now.
I read that i may need to fix the driver installation. How do i do this? (If it is the cause of the problem)
Tried to post this up on the development section but being a new member, i can't. (need 10 posts)
Thanks in advance for reading up to here.

If you have already flash the .67 with flash tool then all you have to do is to go to fastboot and flash the .img file you named up there.
Doomlord has some instruction how to get into fastboot which is simple.
+ Plug one end of wire to your PC
+ turn of the phone (no wire connected)
+ hold the volume up and plug the other end to you phone and when the notification light comes on as blue.
+ then you open cmd on your fastboot folder, and type "fastboot flash system filename.img"
If you don't really know how, read some informative posts in development section.
Good Luck
Yes that's what i've been doing. However it seems to be stuck at < waiting for device >
I've been trying to find out if it is a driver issue but i think i have no idea what i'm doing.
Try this way (i had to spent 1 night to found it myself):
Open device manager then connect usb to pc +press volume button, in device manager window, there is new device shows: s1 fastboot, right click on new device, choose update driver, browse to driver folder then install, your phone now should stay in fastboot mode.

Weird enough you were able to unlock your bootloader.
Turn it off.
When turning it on hold down volume.
It will be ok

You need to install fastboot drivers. When you are in fastboot you need to go 'device manager' or something like that on PC. Find android and use update drivers bottom option (install manualy) and point where your fastboot drivers are.
Fastboot driver

Can get the link for the drivers for micromax a58 need a heck of waiting for that to be installed with twrp recovery
I have read the tutorials and attempted to install TWRP to no avail. My computer does recognize my oneplus x when connected but it is not recognized when I tried adb? No device attached. I put the device in fastboot manually, but the computer still won't recognize it. I think maybe my first error was trying to flash the recovery with rashr. It said it was a successful flash, but when I boot into recovery the device just stays on the oneplus logo. It is rooted by kingroot. Any new ideas would be helpful.
Thank you!

I can boot into Android (if you mean just the phone booting). I installed drivers from that were on the phone and downloaded the drivers at my work computer. Both computers recognize the phone, but not in adb or fastboot.
Use the drivers in the thread a to root and unlock bootloader, it works

I had a similar issue with my z2 where i could only get into fastboot mode. Tried flashing firmware. No luck. So suspected a hw issue. Replaced the battery and it worked fine.

Please Could you explain for me? i have the same probleme and i don't have a solution.
I have the answer, same problem, and got into TWRP Recovery:
1. Obviously, ADB, Fastboot, Drivers, flashtool installed (In windows 10 you need to disable driver signature enforcement, which resets after reboot)
2. Download techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/sirius , and Pick Stock kernel Repack ( credits to Dees_Troy https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2772879)
If flashing anything via fastboot fails (too many links, not allowed, no permission etc), unlock bootloader via
Code:
fastboot oem unlock 0x"(code from here https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/get-started/unlock-bootloader/)". You can find IMEI in the little latch above micro sd card slot/
3. Flash Via fastboot Kernel Flash DooMLord Method (I flashed stock system first viafastboot from xperifirm, not sure if necessary)
4. Restart phone, press Vol down repeatedly
Fastboot mode with Bootloader Unlock Allow: No
Hi, I don't know, but what I'm going to tell you is a bit strange, I don't know if someone happened to it, it turns out that I have a sony xperia m, model: c1905 and it turns out that the bootloader is locked in: no, but so for stumbling probe in fastboot mode and if you let me in the blue light turns on,It was from vodafone, but it is free, because it does not put any number in what is SIM LOCK, but if it puts an X but not numbers, we are going to be released, but it has surprised me and even more, that it lets me enter fastboot mode With the bootloader unlock allowed: no, then it is to know from there, what should I do,If now, I should unlock it with the code of the bootloader unlocking sony page or I don't know, that's why I ask before doing anything, and then without knowing what I do, load my phone, I would be grateful for this if there is any solution , and if someone else has happened this strange, thanks and regards
i tried to do it my self. follow an instruction from a official website and other
https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/get-started/unlock-bootloader/
https://www.getdroidtips.com/how-to...-plus-i3213-i4213-i4293-i3223/#Pre-Requisites
which i got stuck at, when i boot into bootloader mode . the phone seem to restart and appear only black screen with blue indicator.
then i tried to check if it still connect to adb or not, with {adb devices} its not listed there
PS.
-the drivers work fine
-my Xperia 10 plus model is I4293
The LED is all you get. The screen stays black for fastboot and flash modes. Not sure why adb devices isn't working.

one thing weird
i using a Xperia Tool (Xperia Companion) and it display the text that my phone need to unlock the screen or allow to use data tranfer
which i already check a USB debugging to be on, and every time i connect it to my PC, it still ask me a permission to be allow or not
maybe this is a problem here ?
It cant be listed in ADB if the android isnt running.
Blue LED means fastboot mode. So to check if the device is in that mode you do "fastboot devices".
Once the LED is blue you can unlock the bootloader with the command "fastboot oem unlock 0x<insert your unlock code>".

I guess you are using windows. This is issue on windows when you don't install adb drivers. There should be tutorial on Sony site how to install them.

Yes, I am using Windows 10, but let me clarify my understanding first.
From what you said, I need to manually install the ADB driver by Device Manager > Portable Devices > Xperia 10 Plus > Browse my com... And that driver, I should get it from Sony site, but I only see Xperia 1, 5 and 8, not 10 nor 10 Plus.
However, I could see my phone by using command adb devices through minimal ADB and Fastboot. Does this imply that the driver is installed already?

Adb and fastboot are not the same thing so you have to get fastboot driver.
I have no clue where this driver is as I use Linux only which includes the driver by default.

I see. There is a fastboot driver on Sony site, but it was uploaded since 2014. I successfully installed it, but still nothing seems to work. I will try on Ubuntu later. Thanks for your help.

I was using windows 10. From what I can remember, my problem is that I didn't install driver correctly (I'm not sure which one). I am not really sure if this fastboot driver the one I used. I saw my device in Device Manager, but I got waiting on device... just like you. So what I have done was locate my device in Device Manager and install the sony driver over that device. If sony's driver was not the correct one, then it was another driver that I can't remember, but the instruction still the same. Sorry for an unclear message, but I can barely remember anything now.

Go in Windows Device Manager and check the device . If needed install drivers manually
