Dear friends,
I've read other question threads about this and searched a lot on the internet as well, but I haven't found a clear and direct answer to this.
My questions are as follows:
1 - Will Unlocking Bootloader and Performing Root Make Me Lose DRM Keys? If yes, how does it affect my device?
(The penultimate time I was left with the camera app unable to take pictures in low light and without updates via OTA). It was the Xperia Z3.
2 - Will I be able to install Gravitybox, Xposed Framework, Xposed Edge, Xposed Additions, Gesture Navigations, etc...? It's been 7 years since I've needed to root a device (the last one was the Xperia Z5), so I'm out of date.
3 - Is there a Photos and Videos widget for current versions of Android 12 or 13? I just can't bring that Widget to my new device even though I can get the Xperia Album to work normally.
Thanks in advance for all your help and advice. Forgive me for the google english and have a great day.
I can only help with question 1 lol no you don't lose any DRM keys from what I can tell. The only thing you will lose is widevine l1 to l3

1. You lose widevine L1 to L3, so no more HD content from prime , netflix, etc...
2. You can run Lsposed but gravity box wont work on android 13, worse it can cause bootloop and without twrp, idk if we can fix bootloop without full wipe. Idk if others module will work. Edit: lsposed work fine for me (xposed framework )
3. Idk, you may search playstore for photo widget?
so, do i understand this correctly, the trim area partition is lost and can not be backed up prior to bootloader unlocking, but you effectirvely lose nothing but widevine and the camera is not affected in any way?
No you don't lose anything from what I can tell lol also you can get widevine l1 back if you lock your bootloader and repair it with their tool

I just received my device and successfully unlocked the bootloader. When I wanted to root my device I couldn't find my current ROM in XPERIFIRM, I need this rom to get the boot.img file. "Okay", I thought, "I just need to flash one of the ROMs available here and everything will be fine". So I could not in any way get or generate the ftf to flash on my device via flashtool, The flashtool doesn't even recognize my device.
Can anyone give me a light? I really want to ROOT my Xperia 1 IV XQ-CT72 and keep Android 12.
About the current version, follow the number.
Version Number: 64.0.A.8.82
Is there any way to flash a new ROM that I don't know about?

I have read about how to install Gravitybox on Android 12. However I have not been able to install EdXposed and get it working.

Gravity box wont work and may cause bootloop. And i think latest firmware is android 13. If you has CT72 i would suggest go for SEA version
Btw i forgot to say yesterday but use new flasher (google it from xda) to flash your firmware

Hi! I have Huawei Mediapad t1-701u.
I wasn't able to root it yet. ?
What did you do to obtain root access on this device?
Can you help me, please?
Thanks.
Get the lastest KingRoot from the source!
By the way, any "reasonable" recovery? CWM? PhilZ? TWRP? Any?

I tried the lastest KingRoot version but it didn't work.
I'm on stock recovery and my my Mediapad runs T1-701uV100R001C100B109.
I haven't tested yet. I gathered all (few) useful things.
One is latest KingRoot and then I have downloaded latest Huawei firmware which seems to be "Huawei_MediaPad T1 7.0_Firmware_T1-701w_Android 4.4.2_EMUI 3.0_V100R001C232B009CUSTC232D001_West European_Channel-Others.zip". And I am pretty sure this firmware update doesn't "fit" my device, as it's a "T1-701u".
The point is that without root and without a decent recovery, there's little to play with!

I tried to install another firmware, T1-701uV100R001C100B005, and then rooted with KingRoot (latest). It worked perfectly, but there were some issues. Front camera didn't work, and themes application crashed.
So I re-flashed the backup. Waiting for solutions. BTW, even without root, I can enjoy my Mediapad.

Very unlikely!
There are only a few apps for FM radio. Spirit FM is one but I am not sure it will work on the T1-701u and am not even sure the FM radio has been wired in. GSMArena is not sure about the presence of the FM hardware...

It is not a mainstream tablet. It is just another tablet with bare-bones specs from Huawei. Plus it is run by Spreadtrum processor. You won't find any custom ROMs. Root it if you can and make it to your liking and use it. Don't waste your time waiting for a custom ROM that never was.
Anyone.Help me to install custom recovery such as CWM,TWRP,etc.Is there any recovery in this tab?
Only a hint: at Huawei official site is (for germany, maybe also for other countrys) a new firmware: download-c.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=73107&version=267628&sit eCode=de
I flashed this, rooted it with kingo root app. Now I am able to remount /system/bin
I am used this for change the content of the "charge" file to
#!/bin/sh
/system/bin/reboot
The Mediatab boots now when I put the charger in the tablet. (For car navigation).
Works well for me. Device is a Huawei Mediatab t1-701u

can u use xposed framework on that firmwere???
Hi guys, first I want to apology if it has already been asked.
I'm running Android 6.0 (32.1.A.1.185) on my E5823. My phone is rooted and have Xposed installed (Hi Niantic)
I can't get rid of the notification for 32.2.A.0.224.
Should I update?
Will I loose root and Xposed? If so, how can I get rid of this annoying update notification?
Thanks a lot
You won't be able to update the official way without getting rid of the mods/root.
Sent from my E5823 using Tapatalk
Okay thanks. How am I supposed to update then?
Can I remove this annoying persistent notification?
the difference not that big, i would wait for 7.0 nougat if i were you
probably coming somewhere in 2017 Q1 - Q3
(i'm really waiting for last version b4 rooting my device, also i don't want void my warranty, and the reason rooting ruin ota update like *bushako* said
(i guess you have to use flashtool\adb to flash) i didnt use flash tool for a while (used on my previous sony)

Uninstall Xposed framework and then you'll need to flash stock kernel using fastboot which would also remove whatever custom recovery and root you have.

I wouldn't recommend it. Even if you do succeed in updating you could end up with a bricked device or just mess up your firmware and would have to do redo everything. Best is to bring it back to complete stock and then do the update.

Okay, thanks for the reply
I don't really see the problem. Just flash the latest firmware using Flashtool and then root again by using the rootkernel mod in this forum. Xposed and such aren't a problem either.
Hi
Is it possible to use Flashtool with twrp/root/xposed? Btw I think my bootloader is still unlocked.
And what should I use to root? Something like this or this?

If your bootloader is unlocked you should be able to follow both tutorials just fine.
In short:
Flash new firmware using Flashtool
Patch kernel of new firmware and flash it
Flash SuperSU and Xposed using TWRP
Enjoy life
If you need step-for-step help, just send me a PM with your instant messasing contact details. I'll help where needed.

You'll first need to downgrade to an older firmware in order to backup the TA partition. This thread describes everything very detailed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z5-compact/general/how-to-backup-restore-ta-partition-root-t3479532

In my case MM 6.0.1 (.224 or .253) solved the battery drain issue during night/sleep, so i would highly recommend it. There is also a discussion regarding this.
as suggested by others, i would not directly OTA upgrade with modded kernel, Supersu and Xposed installed. I would do it with flashtool.
If you want to stick with the current version, simply disable/hide/remove the Software update app (or "hide all notifications from this app".)
I froze it a while ago with Rom Toolbox, but thanks

Hello.
I want to use Android Pay, but app showing me error, that Google cannot confirm software on my Z2.

I don't want to flash stock with Flashtool (I will lose recovery).
What to do now?

Is it known what exactly does Android Pay check? I have stock 6.0.1 and Pay is working fine for me. Now I'd like to flash LDAC mod to get better sound with wireless headphones (https://forum.xda-developers.com/cr...-xperia-x-ldac-ahc-port-enjoy-hi-res-t3370105). This mod apparently just adds LDAC library into /system/lib and appends few parameters to /system/build.prop. Any opinions whether it could break Android Pay? Thx!

afaik, they're all rootable except the verizon variant...
hotspot...? if you mean, using your data network as a wifi hotspot - unless there's some kind of issue hosting a wifi network while rooted, this device does let you host.

If you buy the phone directly from Motorola/Lenovo, you can put a Verison SIM in and then you can also unlock the bootloader. Takes longer but if you really want to unlock it, this would be the only way I know.

Sorry guys, I'm thinking about buying this phone with a carrier, so I will have 30 months of warranty covering everything. If I unlock the bootloader and flash the recovery I will lose it. Does anyone know how to find the factory image or backup the stock system (recovery and everything) to restore it to stock in case of problems? Thanks in advance
I have the XT1710-10 Dual SIM variant of the Moto Z2 Play, what should i do to succesfully root the phone. Can somebody guide me in detail ?
and i am not clear about this 32 bit and 64 bit twrp

I thought the TWRP version you linked is not working properly. Are you saying that it works, now?

Which way? What error?... You must go to Motorola's unlock bootloader page (@pizza_pablo kindly shared the link for you already) and >precisely< follow instructions. You can also search for "unlock bootloader Motorola" here or in YouTube. There's aplenty of video tutorials, plus every single Moto device since Moto G requires the very same procedure, so you can follow any. Good luck and don't cry; you'll notice that unlocking is the easiest part.
One more thing: I strongly suggest you to research as much as you can about the subject >first< (it clearly looks like the first time for you) especially on Moto Z2 Play rooting and very especially on Oreo rooting. There's a bit of confusion there.

Use the 64-bit twrp in the other thread.

So, can we use 64 bit TWRP on 32 bit OS?

Yerah...Verizon phones are always locked down, unless you have a Pixel. That's precisely why I dropped them like a bad habit. Well, that AND the fact that they are the most expensive cell provider out there.

Stable magisk will work?
Has anyone tried this to convert their ROM and did it work?
So I tried this and it worked, changed Chinese rom to Global Rom, without having to do copy all the code like in the other convert thread.
I moved from UI3 chinese rom to UI2 global, then just had to certify the device to get access to google play!
can one please make a video orpictures about it?!?!?!?
i don't get into that TWRP

Which magisk you are using alpha or stable?
Click to expand...

I've tried both versions. but I don't quite understand how it all works... (Sorry google translater)
I used magisk alpha through twrp.
I can't do a video sorry, all I wanted to do was let everyone know that it works and seems to be a lot easier(for me anyway) than the other way of trying to get a global ROM working.
I think I'm too stupid for that
can write me a step-by-step guide ?
its literally a step by step guide in the first post.
you'll need the files from the links provided!
unfortunately it doesn't work for me, no idea what I'm doing wrong
Bootloader unlock isn't required?
My bootloader was unlocked, yes

Hi, I just have a few questions
1. You used the EU Rom from this thread right? And if so are you receiving OTA updates? According to a different thread on this topic, people are having to use the IN Rom in order to still receive OTA Updates.
2. Are apps like Google Pay working, and other functions of the phone like NFC and 5G working?
1. I used the EU ROM, which is .a09 I was on the ui3 Chinese ROM.
After flashing the ROM I have done an ota update and am now on a.17
2. I'm not sure about Google play as I've rooted the phone and this version of magisk doesn't have hide, so doesn't work
Everything else that wasn't working on Chinese ROM ui3 is working.
Vowifi, volte, NFC, Android auto 5g(no switching problem) all now work
I was considering getting a new phone before this, as so many features were annoying me or missing on the Chinese ROM.

Hopefully, my final question,
I can't seem to find a way to unlock my bootloader on ui3, may I ask how you unlocked your bootloader?
The only solution I can find at the moment is to downgrade to android 11 ui2 CN Rom .A24 and then unlock the bootloader through that way since the deep testing app for unlocking the bootloader will not install on ui3 for me.
Thanks in advance!
(ps. I don't have the app already installed, I have checked 5 times already.)
You might need to downgrade back to UI 2 as I unlocked my bootloader using deep test before updating to UI3. (Yeah I looked at that after I had gone to UI3 and it said it was already installed, but couldn't find it or search for it either)
Hi again, what am I ment to do from here? This is after doing the fourth step. @unparalleled82

Depends if you want to root it or not. If not then just reboot and should be on the version you've installed

Well, something has gone wrong. when rebooting it only seems to go to the realme UI recovery I didn't want root so I could use Google Pay. I am not sure what do do now. Should I wipe data, and try to redo the whole thing? (edit: if you are a newcomer and see this message, be sure to look at page 2 (spoiler: it worked!))
