Does the Rootable Kernel/ TWRP 3 - E6683 by Moonbutt74 work with Locked BL? - Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All
I reference the thread here
[Rootable Kernel/ TWRP 3 - E6853/E6883 Marshsmellow ] [32.1.A.1.163] AU]
Does this work with a Locked bootloader?
or is there a way to backup my DRM keys for the device before I root?
Thank You very much in advance for answering my question

I tried it on my z3+. It didn't work I have unlocked bootloader. Any possible chance to make it work I updated to mm. We have no development. And I don't believe I'm capable. If you can try. I will pay you

Hi, the answer to the portion of you quoted post in red is no. We don't do that here on XDA.
I would like to help you with the Xperia Z3 but I am no longer willing to work with devices i do not have.
If you get yourself setup for development, acquire the appropriate kernel source, and other related resources however, then
sure, I would be glad to help out as far as I am able. I am understanding that most Xperia devices are using a similar bootrec setup
in the boot.img? If anyone can confirm that, thanks.
This z5 boot.img will not work on the z3.
Final point of order, this forum is dedicated to the Xperia Z5 series , the correct place to post this question would be in the appropriate place
for the Z3.

Just had a look at the above Xperia M (C1905) ROM build.prop and it indicates the follow:
Singapore: Customised SG
######################## Customized property values #########################
ro.semc.version.cust=1274-5468
ro.semc.version.cust_revision=R1C
ro.somc.customerid=442
##### Values from product package metadata #####
ro.semc.product.model=C1905
ro.semc.ms_type_id=PM-0490-BV
ro.semc.version.fs=WORLD-i
ro.semc.product.name=Xperia M
ro.semc.product.device=C19
ro.product.model=C1905
#########################################################################
There are many 'world' releases from different countries.
I'd be interested to see if the Serbian 'world' 15.4.A.1.9 release has SMS(txt'n) character optimisation option as the 15.4.A.0.23 version did.
I know the Malaysian 15.4.A.1.9 release doesn't have an SMS character optimisation option (FYI)
Update - Oh, and you may want to check the Wireless 5GHz regulations for the country you're in if you plan to use 5GHz WiFi.
Singapore has a different set of regulatory channels/frequencies compare to say Europe.
Checked WiFi conf on other ROMs and don't see any differences in WiFi ini between the ROM's so no reason to think Singapore would be any different as a 'world' unbranded ROM.
I did get caught out using an Indonesian Xperia M (C1905) Android 4.1 ROM once and at the time it didn't even support 5GHz WiFi (regulations for Indonesian 5GHz WiFi changed to now allow it, but not sure if that's now reflected in ROMs)
Remember the devil is in the detail.
Please help me download link from MEGA. Thank!

There is a root method in the Cross-Device section (towel root). CWM currently no available on our phones, but I think its work in progress

[Sony] Xperia Open Devices Project

Sony Mobile is committed to supporting the open developer community, and one way to show this is by publishing parts of our code as well as selected tools developed by our internal developers.
For some of the Xperia™ devices, we provide Android™ Open Source Project (AOSP) device configurations on GitHub. This means that the software will be open for you as a developer to use and contribute to. This is a way for us to support the open Android community, and it is also a tool for us to facilitate and verify contributions to AOSP.
If you want to build AOSP for your unlocked Xperia device, you find all the resources you need in the sections below.
http://developer.sonymobile.com/knowledge-base/open-source/open-devices/
Unified 3.10 kernel sources
https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/kernel
Project git
https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/
@jerpelea
I compiled AOSP using Sony's instructions and was able to boot fine into the ROM.
I also used the offical recovery mode update from Sony's developer page.
I can enter recovery with power + vol down, but when I use 'adb reboot recovery', it does not work (boots direct into the AOSP, like a normal reboot). Is this expected?
Do I have to use the extract_elf_ramdisk in my AOSP build, like CyanogenMod?
Thanks!

I have a C6902 device, and I'm unable to see the open devices bootloader update for my phone in Flashtool, both while using stock and AOSP. Will it only work for C6903, or can I get a .ftf file and flash it with flashtool?

But those are only for Lollipop Unfortunately still no camera on marshmallow
It appears as some people have been able to unlock the bootloader if the c6916 z1s (USA), using the regular z1 unlocking method on the Sony dev site. This didn't week for my z1s though. Is the camera permanently broken regardless of ROM after unlocking the bootloader? And why does it with to do this with some c6916 z1s units and not others? :/
Can you confirm is it possible to unlock the bootloader please.. Anyone else have tried it. Thanks in advance

EDIT: Well, what I see on Sony web is the XA1 and XA Ultra, not the XA1 Ultra.
But, maybe XA1 and XA1 Ultra have same bootloader?

It should work even you take XA1. That is why they need IMEI number to sort out. I just download the kernel source and need some info to build custom recovery. I successfully build kernel.

Sorry, but I don't understand you very well.
Do you mean : 1. We can take XA1 method for XA1 Ultra?
2. Do you have a XA1 or XA1 Ultra, and you have downloaded the kernel sources, so you can build a custom recovery?
This would be a great news for me... even if I don't get the phone yet.

I mean you can choose xa1 from the list and continue the process/ steps to unlock the bootloader. I ordered XA1 ultra and waiting for shipping. Regarding to kernel yes.. I downloaded the kernel source and build a kernel .. I am going to build TWRP recovery. But to do that I need some information etc to start working with custom recovery.
After 4 days working. I am now enjoying my XA1 ultra. Rooted+my own kernel build from source and even with working custom recovery twrp. :good:

Would unlocking the bootloader have any impact on the phone such as high image noise/poor image quality?
If not, what are the negatives of unlocking the bootloader?
Previously on my old Xperia Z2, unlocking the bootloader removes image enhancements and introduces noise in the camera...

The only way to update is by using flashtool to manually update. However, you will need to root once again after updating using the same method as before.
Also, to update via flash tool, you will need to get hold of the FTF file to update.

Same here. Is yours by any chance also a Canadian unit? Perhaps they're being inexplicably locked here. (Mine is from Wind/Freedom, and the service menu lists the bootloader as not allowed to be unlocked)
