Find someone who can do boot.img and recovery for xperiu L1

Custom recovery isn't required if you use Magisk to root, but custom kernel is no exception.
I tried to modify stock kernel with Magisk Manager but it failed.
Currently I don't have Linux PC so building custom kernel may be a problem.

Use Android Image Kitchen by @osm0sis to convert the boot.elf (boot.img) and fotakernel.elf (recovery.img) to standard aosp .img format then test using fastboot (Bootloader must be unlocked) Check out other "mediatek" xperia device threads also.

I tried before.
It didn't work as it cannot unpack the boot.img extracted using Flashtool sin converter

@bigrammy
Do you help a create boot.img And recovery.img

Upload the boot.sin and fotakernel.sin only to a NO spam file host like mega or G-drive and I will take a look when I get some time.

Actually, you can download full ROM using Flashtool with xperifirm, and extract boot and recovery using SIN extractor.
Currently I am at work and I will upload them to android file host later Monday

Did you Really type that. :laugh: :laugh:
I have enough #***# on my PC without adding even more unnecessary Gig's for a device I don't even own.
As you will know there are many variants country to country single sim dual sim etc so I will need the boot from the testers variant and not just one I made guess at.

Here is the boot.img to test.
It has not been modified in anyway so encryption and verity are still enabled as they are in the stock .elf
IF it boots then we will move on.
Bootloader unlock is required just for clarity and anyone thinking of testing it.

I have successfully modified the kernel and mine is rooted.
The next one will be dual SIM version and it will come later.

So I need not of wasted my time after all
I am well aware of how to root a kernel and do all things regarding sony and mediatek and I think you somehow got your wires crossed.
I suggested to you how to modify the kernel.elf but you said you tried and failed that's why I offered to HELP I don't even have the L1 hence the reason for not going for the full on modification of the kernel until it was fully tested.
Anyway now your underway I will leave you all to get on with it.
Good Luck :good:

Unfortunately, I am still unable to make TWRP for L1 at this time.
Moreover, it appears that modified stock image doesn't work for other L1 variations, and all I have is US version. I uploaded all three variations and see the results.

It looks like SIM cannot be read with modified image.

Does this have the same issue as the .101 where the XZDR.prop file needs to be replaced in order to access recovery?

In your SDCard, simply delete the files in the XZDualRecovery or rename the XZDR.prop. If you delete them, they get recreated anyway and fixes that problem you had with 101
Oh, how much I love you right now. Thanks a lot! Will report if I encounter any issue with your files, though I seriously doubt I will.

Locked or unlocked BL isn't important with these files.
Just upload the ZIP to your SDCard and flash it in recovery, then power off your phone without rebooting and flash the stripped FTF with Flashtool and you're done.
Thank you guys!
But for those (like my self) who are not experts on this, could you please, provide a detailed (step by step) guide on how to flash it?
If I already flashed it to kitkat (not rooted), can I do it over this one?

My BL is locked, there are easier ways if you have an unlocked bootloader but this will work whether your BL is locked or unlocked. Ive been running it for a few hours now and no issues, root and dual recovery's are working.

If you already flashed 4.4.2 then you do not have root and therefore cannot flash these. You will need to flash back to an older 4.2.2 so you can root and then install recovery. Once you have recovery the steps are:
1 - upload the zip to your SDCard and flash it via recovery
2 - After flash is successful, turn off your phone without rebooting.
3 - Flash the stripped FTF file via FlashTool and boot your phone.
That's it

[Kernel][Root] Stock Nougat kernel patched with DM-Verity, DRM Fix (Single sim)

Hi everyone,
Just wanted to share stock nougat kernel(32.3.A.0.372 Customized IN) patched which has DM-Verity, DRM fix and can be used to root. I have successfully rooted my device using the steps explained by @serajr here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70595975&postcount=1702
Currently there is no way to get TWRP and disable Sony RIC.
For TWRP, use below fast boot command to boot temporarily and do whatever you want.
For disabling Sony RIC and get write access to system, use root explorer or any other apps which is similar, and edit the follow file /sys/kernel/security/sony_ric/enable to '0' when you want to modify any system files or folders.
TRY THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES.
Steps To root device:
1) Boot any stock patched kernel (boot.img) with TWRP from Marshmallow or Zach's kernel using following fast boot command and access TWRP while booting using Volume Up button.
Code:
fastboot boot boot.img
2) Flash attached zip
3) Flash latest supersu zip
4) Turn off, and boot your device normally
Hope this helps someone.
Please say thanks if this helped you.
Thank you.

@tobias.waldvogel, for his amazing tool.
Can you please do the same for the Dual Sim one (E6533)? I can provide you with the kernel if you want

Please Help
UPDATE: Just had to Disable Xperia MyProtection. It got activated by itself after OTA
I try it but my phone not root, open superus show notification "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it". Please Help
DRM fix doesn't work. XReality (among other things I assume) are ever disabled.
On Marshmallow DRM fix was working fine (was using XReality engine despite the unlocked bootloader)

Yesterday I just received my new "OP7T Global ROM - HD1900".
Unbox it and played for a few hours with the build in version of Oxygen OS (HD65AA) with the latest update downloading in the background.
After a few hours I decided to try and root the device and instal Adaway so I unlocked the bootloader and flashed this boot image.
Everything went well but if I remember correctly there was a Weather App and a Recorder App in the out of the box pre-installed Oxygen OS and now after I flashted the root image with Magisk patched there are nowhere to be found. Is this root patched image suited for the global ROM or there is for the European ROM? Did the flashing of the patched image removed the two apps or the latest update doesn't include them?
here the same no SIM. anyone a new magisk boot.img European Version ??????

I thing this patched boot image is for the Global ROM Oxygen OS 10.0.11 HD65AA Phone model HD1900.
What version of the phone do you own?
You can always flash back the original boot image the same way you flashed the patched image.
(Although I have the global model, I wanted to test the European ROM and rooted with this patched boot image. I had problems with SIM recognition and lag. So I wipe everything and flashed back the Global ROM)

First of all you have to clarify what version of the phone do you have, European or Global.
Next step should be to find the stock boot.img for your ROM and then flash it with fastboot commands the same way you flasthed the Magisk patched boot.img

OK, if you bought the phone form official Oneplus store then you defensively have the European version.
The stock boot image is inside the Fastboot ROM zip. You can download the hole file from the following link
https://sourceforge.net/projects/fastbootroms/files/OnePlus 7T/
Assuming that you were on the latest update, you want to download the file 10.0.11-EUROPE-OnePlus7TOxygen
When you downloaded, unzip it and look for a file named "boot.img" that is your stock boot image. You can flash it the same way you flashed the Magisk Patched boot.img. Then the phone should boot with no problems.

I contacted OnePlus support and they said they will send me some files and then arrange a remote session to flash a new OS to my phone. If that does not work, I will try your method.

Question Fastboot Stock Roms

Hey guys, more and more Roms are coming out for our beloved OnePlus 9 pro. I had a 6 and 7tp before and there were stock oos Roms, which you could easily flash via Fastboot and have OOS back.
It's just more convenient to simply have one file instead of flashing all images and so on
It'll be so great if any developer could try to create one, since it shouldn't be so difficult (at least that's what I guess haha)
I created one (11.2.7.7.BA), it should work, but need testers. Ofc, Use it on your own Risk, but we have MSM Tool

I owe you a beer Sconny, you brought me back from the brink! I didn't exactly use all of your files, so I'm not sure if I count as a tester, but I was able to use your fastboot commands from Flasher.bat and turn that into a shell script. I ran it not really knowing it was going to work, so I ended up not wiping beforehand but it looks like it turned out fine. Oh and I didn't use your zip, used my own and dumped the payload myself. Thanks again Sconny!

Tested and it worked for me as well other than shows the same userdata wipe error as mentioned. Curious to ask if you could make a flashable zip to include just the latest firmware?

Maybe I should implement another command or manual wiping should work. Isn't that the latest FW?

Yes but for flashing custom Roms you only need need some of the images flashed to the other slot prior to flashing the custom ROM zip. The system IMG and vendor IMG and some others are not needed. Comes in handy when moving from one custom ROM to another.

Never mind though as this was inaccurate on my part, vendor img is needed...my bad. This method just lets you flash to latest fw after you're already on a custom rom. So to say if a newer fw came out after you could update to it.
I will take a look on it when I've got more time, sorry guys. I need to test it on myself in order to provide this variant of restoring our devices, but I'm working much as hell atm and family stuff etc. Is more important. But I promise I will try to provide a fully functional package for all versions. System, ODM and Vendor is still buggy, but I have some ideas how to fix it
do u think this could work for AA?

There should be the same bug with wiping. But I have an idea, I gonna download AA and will upload here. 1 hour needed
Uploading right now.
Here is the AA Version. Wipe Manually, i have to figure out why its not working, for me it does (Maybe cable, usb port?)
I am not a Developer, i'm just doing this for fun and testing when i have time. As always, use at your own risk.
I disabled Verity for the 3 Partitions, maybe that will help. If you guys have some Ideas, please let me know.
Once it is working flawlessly, i will create a thread and update the "tool" for BA/AA/DA Devices.

I'm rooted on T-Mobile stock 11.2.5.5 would I be able to flash 11.2.8.8 via fastboot? Or would I need to convert to EU first?

Question Flash recovery on Galaxy A52S 5G without data loss

Hello, I have a galaxy A52s 5G and I'm trying to bypass pattern lock so I don't lose data by factory resetting. USB debugging is disabled and bootloader is not unlocked.
I can access download mode/stock recovery but that's about it. Doesn't seem like there's an official TWRP either. Is there a way to flash a custom recovery? Would flashing A52 4g's TWRP work? If not, what can I do
Arobase40 said:
Flashing A52 4g's TWRP onto a A52S 5G will lead to a soft brick phone !!! ^^
Someone else pretended he/she built a working TWRP for the A52S 5G but it doesn't work at all and even didn't test it him/herself before releasing it.
Another guy accepted to be a guinea pig but he bricked his phone by the way... ^^
We are all waiting after such a TWRP but there is none atm.
I'm myself trying to build one but I don't have enough time to build it because I don't have a good Windows PC and I don't feel comfortable with Android studio yet !
I have the source code but I have to put all things together so unless someone else build a working one you have to wait after it as we all do... ^^

Once someone builds a working version, would I be able to simply flash it using Odin in download mode or would bootloader need to be unlocked? Because otherwise I'm not sure what to do
Arobase40 said:
You can't install a TWRP without unlocking the bootloader anyway.

Is it worth trying to flash Aroma file manager through download mode? I'm not sure if aroma is compatible with any device

I am using this guide - https://www.droidwin.com/create-port-twrp-recovery-android/
But at step 7, the fstab.devicename_or_chipsetname file is missing.
And how do we edit default.prop file? Tried with notepad++, root explorer android, but the file only has a single line as
!<symlink>ÿþp r o p . d e f a u l t

There is a mistake in the guide. It's not 'default.prop', it's 'prop.default' in step 6 (13)
So after all the work, I got TWRP booting. But it's only booting, no touch response.

Firmware recovery.img has some files missing. These are present in recovery.img backed up from TWRP app. Or maybe this is just the way it is, I don't know.
Attached is backed up from the TWRP app. Maybe this will help.

What do you want me to do with a recovery that is not working for you ??? lol
I already have the device tree for A528B as source code but need to know how to include it in a Android tree source code : omni, cm or aosp..., but I need to know what is missing to build it and get it working... ^^

I am not building from source code like you. I took TWRP from A52, as the two devices are very similar. Then followed the guide - www.droidwin.com
I don't have any technical knowledge about this. It booted somehow. No boot-loop. But there is no touch response. And I don't OTG nearby, so couldn't test with a mouse.
Yes, ofc. You would know better. I am not a developer. I was only trying with that guide.

This is what I said : no touch response so simply useless as you won't even know if processes behind the touch options are even working... ^^
I remember someone else who pretended he/she will build a TWRP without source code but with some kind of "kitchen" and released it in this section but didn't even test it him/her/self. Someone else tried it but it didn't work. Then we never got any feedbacks from he/she... ^^

I never said that I am building TWRP for public. I was only trying for myself. The recovery.zip attached in the previous message is just the stock recovery backed up from TWRP app as it has some missing files from recovery extracted from the stock firmware.

It's default.prop in the guide. Build.prop is different right?
I am only following that guide. I don't know about how to build TWRP from source.
