I got the nougat update through the xperifirm and flashtool. I have a problem with unlocking the bootloader because it says that my bootloader is unlockable but when I put in the key for it and follow the instructions on the sony website it says that the process failed? I cant flash twrp either. Help please!
Model: F3216
Im not sure but I think it may be already unlocked but im unable to flash recovery. I can't toggle OEM unlock option in developer options. If that helps

Sorry but it's a clickbait! The author just changed Marshmallow word by Nougat For now it's absolutely impossible to root XA on Nougat. No kernel sources = no root

Hi,
1. Generally less than a week but as you probably know Sony removed the last firmware so kernel sources release will probably be canceled too for this firmware.
2. No you can't it's not the same kernel like you can't use XA sources to build XA Ultra kernel.

You have to build the kernel from sources, edit the ramdisk of the stock boot and replace the stock kernel with the one built from sources in the boot and TWRP.

Hi there,
Here's an FTF of the Norwegian release of Lollipop 5.1.1 from Telenor. It's completely stock, without root or a recovery, so you'll have to root and install it yourself.
- ROM download: Click
- NUT's Dual Recovery: Click
- SuperSU: Click
I do take requests, and I can make other regional FTFs.
Good Job

Okay, so it's the same as mine, and the FTF is built by me, and it's the same build I'm running on my Ultra, so I'm not sure what happened on your end. Can you describe what you did before it stopped working?
I was able to flash it using flashtool, but when i turn my device on, it goes into a bootloop
So i just flash a regular kitkat ftf file to revive my ZU

Okay, so you didn't do anything strange or unusual, so I'm not sure what happened. I would guess that a lot of people would complain here if they had any issues with this ROM, but that's not the case, so I have no idea what's going on.
I can build a local 5.1.1 FTF for you if you want? Just mention your country, and I'll build it for you.
That would be great

Huh...! Weird. No, you shouldn't be on anything special. Just flash it with Flashtool. What's weird here is that I'm running it myself, and I haven't had any issues, so I have no idea what's going on. Did you get any errors or weird-ish messages from Flashtool while flashing?

Nah, that won't make any difference. I have an unlocked bootloader.
EDIT: WAIT A MINUTE. Let me guess, you came from a custom ROM, correct? And not a stock Sony ROM? You see, when you flash the FTF, the new Flashtool doesn't give us the option to wipe before flashing anymore (not that I've seen at least), so we're basically flashing over the old ROM, so if you're on CM12.1, and you flash stock 5.1.1, it will cause issues since you're now running a weird combo of CM and Sony. You have to wipe CM first.
So I know how you'll get it running. Do a full wipe in recovery (by flashing or hotbooting a custom kernel), then power off and flash the FTF. It'll boot now since it's completely stock and clean.

To new a device yet and it'll probably be like the z5 in that respect- unlocked Bootloader root only, unless kingroot works which I doubt yet. I'm going back stock when I get mine I think.

If the x range uses drm-verity which I think all the new Xperia device's have since z3+ then root will only be on available unlocked Bootloader devices like the z5 range is. This device is still to new. Kingroot doesn't work for now if ever. Someone needs to build kernel+working recovery. For now guessing you're all gonna have to wait same as xa owners only x device with any support so far is x performance.

Hmm... Okay... So I have unlocked Bootloader.. The internal data (sdcard) was wiped. Kingroot doesn't work, correct. All other possibilities were also without success.. I created a firmware zip with PRFcreator inclusive the supersu zip. But I can't flash it to the mobile with flashtool or adb/fastboot... A renaming of the zip to FTF doesn't work, since flashtool does not recognize the ftf file as correct ftf file. It's only possible to flash it when I have customized Recovery
Is it possible to flash this firmware zip file anyway with working supersu.zip? I read something from converting zip to ftf...
It's not possible to copy the required supersu files into the system.sin and then flash the system.sin?
Or any other possible solution without customized recovery or new kernel? (I have stock firmware with stock kernel)
Can I install now everything from new and will the apps and app data stay on mobile when someone has generated the kernel and recovery and I flashed it to my mobile? Or will I lose it again after flashing bootloader/kernel/recovery?
Do you know if there is someone who works on this topic for working kernel and recovery for xperia x? Where can I track this?
Is there any How-to how I can make this work myself? Or is it complicated? the sources of xperia x should be available on Sony developer page, as I think I saw it there yesterday.
Many thanks in advance for your responses and time!

A pre-rooted zip can only be flashed to the device with a working recovery you can't change it to a ftf and flash it via flashtool not gonna happen. As far as I know there's nobody working on kernel and working recovery for the x or xa yet. For now your just gonna have to wait like the rest of us unless you compile kernel+recovery yourself kingroot obviously wouldn't work as the device isn't supported yet shouldn't even be needed on unlocked Bootloader root

Hi,
I will release here my updated "boot.img" files for the Xperia XA Ultra Single Sim.
You must have an unlocked bootloader to flash with Fastboot.
You don't need to be on the same firmware as the boot image that you want to flash.
You have to flash SuperSu again from TWRP just after flashed new boot to avoid bootloop.
All boot images have "ro.secure=0" and "ro.debuggable=1" in default.prop file
and "forcencrypt" of internal memory switched to "encryptable" in fstab.mt6755 file.
The Fastboot command is:
fastboot flash boot NAMEOFIMAGE.img

I'm pretty much in the same boat as Appleknight based on his reply in the other thread. I've got a more-than-full-time job, a lot of other interests, no experience compiling kernels and no time to learn.
I understand that it probably gets frustrating putting in all the work and not getting much in the way of recognition or gratitude for it, so I understand if you have chosen not to produce a root-pack for Nougat. That being said, If you (or anyone else with the skills to do so) would produce a root-pack for nougat on my 3213, I'd be more than happy to donate - say $20. Not sure if anyone else is interested in sweetening the pot...

Sorry but I'm not interested, I'm not a mercenary.
I prefer receiving 20 cents from 100 users because they like my work (or 100 thanks ?) rather than $20 from one user because it need my work. I hope that you understand my point of view. But I'm sure that your offer will motivate some people.
I can respect that.

Kernel G8232 FW 41.2.A.7.8
Kernel G8232 FW 235

Thanks to tobias.waldvogel for his awesome resources.
Don't forget to flash the recovery. Here's the link
Recovery
Also, recovery can be accessed only through the official way i.e.
Power off >> Press the power key and the volume down key simultaneously >> As soon as the SONY logo appears, release ONLY the power key, don't release the volume down key >> After 20-30 seconds the device will enter recovery mode.
Please copy the flashable SuperSU zip file to the external sd card before entering recovery as the internal memory can't be accessed in recovery.​

thank you for your fast reply!
I have a Hong Kong firmware phone, can i download another country firmware with .235?
At the moment my bootloader is unlocked, and my camera not working properly. I really want to at least
get my camera back working again. a rooted phone is now a secondary objective.

how does one get one for the Xperia XA1?
Hello,
now that also in Europe some more FW came out with 41.2.A.7.8: What about the Kernel for G8231?
Or is it possible to use rootkernel for XZs and Nougat 7.1.1 too? Didn't try, i have to admit...

xa ultra is a good device and deserves longer life help it from drowning
I guess it is because of bootloader lock
Bootloader can be unlocked

It's not simple to have custom rom on it, Sony provides only the Kernel sources. To build a rom we need the "device tree" and "vendor tree" too. On XA I'm trying to build missing trees from scratch.
We appreciate everyone who is striving to make this device live longer

That, and my carrier locking my bootloader, is what pisses me off with my XAU.. this is my first Sony device ever, and might probably be my last..
Odd, but my other MTK phones have better development. My Jiayu G3 and Neo M1 have lots of ROMs back then. Maybe to much SOC fragmentation from Sony perhaps?
