It was clear that rooting some Sony devices was not as easy as it should be. This is for unlocked bootloader users, who want to quickly root a stock ROM by flashing a rooted boot.img. It is for the POLLUX_WINDY (ie. the SGP311/312) devices ONLY.
Do not install this on the Pollux (tablet Z with LTE), or it will no longer boot - use flashtool to fix it
There may have been some in the past, but these tend to be full of other "tweaks", like hideous amateur boot logos, and stupid changes like setting ro.secure=0. That's a bad idea, it can break things, and frankly, I know from experience of myself and others that there is a need for a FAST way to root your unlocked device after flashing a new ROM, rather than messing around with downgrading and OTAs.
This will NOT work on locked bootloader, but this is not intended for them. This doesn't include 9001 different recoveries either, like some "kernels" do. This is the stock kernel, with root added, and nothing stupid added.
There is one security improvement made - ro.adb.secure has been set to 1. This is an important security feature, please don't complain about it. If you don't use ADB, you'll never see it, and it won't change anything. If you use adb, it will offer you greater security on 4.2+ stock Sony ROMs, which don't have this feature enabled. You will be prompted to accept the computer connection on the phone, just like in "AOSP" Android 4.2 and above.
The downloads are available above, in the "Downloads" tab. If you have a particular version you wish to request, simply post the kernel.sin. I have made this for only the SGP311/312 (Pollux_Windy) Tablet Z phone images right now, but will consider expanding it for other devices if there is demand and people who can test.
Enjoy simple root, without the nonsense. None of the "don't mirror my files" crap. None of the "please give me donations", none of the "omg credit me as the best person ever". Feel free to share, use, re-use, mirror, enjoy. And I think you'll find that these files are rather helpful for the unlocked bootloader root community I've been thinking about making them for months, but it seems that nobody has ever bothered to.

Correct.
But, since I feel generous, if you upload me the kernel.sin file from your LTE model, I will make a rooted boot.img for it. You can attach them to a post here if you like - just the kernel.sin. Please name them per the stock ROM version, so I can label it correctly.

Hi there, thanks for your reply. What do you mean by the kernel.sin file from my LTE model (mine is the HK version) ? I have taken a photo shot regarding my pad's rom and kernel version details for your reference as attached. If there is not the information that you need, please tell me how to get the "kernel.sin" file from my pad ! Thanks again for your kindness !

The attachment is rooted for this version. As you didn't give me the firmware version (ie. 10.A..whatever...), I won't add it to the list. Please test and let me know if it works. If this fails, just re-flash kernel using flashtool.

You just did a ro.secure in the ramdisk
Am I right?

Nope. Setting ro.secure=0 is NOT the right way to root.
The ramdisk is modified, it will detect if you have root already, and if not, it will install SuperSU and the corresponding su binary on root. I also set ro.adb.secure=1, to add extra security for the device (now you need to approve ADB connections to unrecognised computers).
If you use ro.secure=0, this will break many apps with "root detection", as well as being a horrendously ugly hack, which introduces all sorts of vulnerabilities. ro.secure should always be set to 1
I strongly advise you don't use root methods that set ro.secure=0, as well as any kernels that do it. It's much safer to not have a rooted ADB shell lying available to anything that connects to your device... Including... you know... an app running on your device that initiated an adb connection to 127.0.0.1
So yes, this gives you root without adding stupid extra security holes like many kernels and "root methods" do

Instead of going through all the trouble of unlocking the boot loader and flashing an image, use the Vroot tool instead; it works fast and and does not require unlocking the boot loader. Search this forum for information about the Vroot tool.

DISCLAIMER
Rooting devices involves dangerous procedures that might leave your phone in an unusable state if not followed to the letter. I am not responsable for you bricking your device. DO THIS AT YOUR RISK AND RESPONSABILITY
THIS IS FOR STOCK DEVICES ONLY
INTRODUCTION
Hi,this tool is intended to make the rooting process a little easier than already is however, is a work in progress and I am new to this, so I expect feedback, comments and advices as I am no dev. Thanks for the support
THE TOOL
This is a tool for rooting the International Galaxy Note (GT-N7000) only. It runs all the methods known at the moment. I have not developed anything but gather all the procesess in just one script file.
Take into consideration that this is not one click only, as the root for ICS and GB 2.3.6 need interaction with the user and in the latter case needs the use of Odin to downgrade.
Rooting Methods
Gingerbread
Version 2.3.5 is direct rootable with DooMLoRD'S easy rooting Kit (included in the script)
Version 2.3.6 is downgraded to a prerooted 2.3.5 rom (which is downloaded and pushed to the device). From there, you can flash Mobile Odin and update to any Android version you are willing.
IceCream Sandwich and JellyBean
You can choose among three choices External sdcard is required for this!!.:
1. Flashing signed zip version of Philz kernel (safe kernel + advanced recovery)
2. Flashing SuperSU in stock recovery without changing the kernel.
3. Flashing SU and busybox in stock recovery.
You can choose to root using Exynos Abuse app from Chainfire also (Not included in the script). For this method go to these threads:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2050297
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
The tool guides you through the whole process and prompts the instructions in the cmd session. The files needed to gain root access will be downloaded automatically by the script and md5sum checked. However, you need to follow instructions in order to suceed.
INSTRUCTIONS
This is a windows script only...to succeed, follow these steps:
Samsung drivers have to be installed. Install Kies in your PC to get the lastest drivers. Make sure that the phone is unplugged when you install the drivers.
Download the GalaxyNote-OneClickRoot.zip file and unzip it somewhere you can find it.
Open the OneClickRoot.cmd file as administrator (use right click over the file and run as administrator)
Enable USB debugging in the phone.
Plug the phone to the PC and just follow the instructions.
ENJOY!!
Note: The hack tools used in this script do not belong or were developed by me. I thank all the dev's and contributors that made this script possible. Thanks to:
Philz3759 for his amazing work with the kernels.
Dr. Ketan for the feedback and support.
Chainfire for his constant contributions to the GN community.
XDA for being such a great community.
All the guys in the aahkSupport IRC channel for letting be part of this community, the patience and the teaching (attn1, shad0wf0x, Anthony1s, burgd, Paxtoncamaro91, hyuh, and so many others)

So it's basically one tool for all directly rootable GB kernels ? No more checking the kernel and downloading proper package ? Not that it was such a difficult thing, but improvements like that are amazing Next time i need to root, im gonna definitely use this stuff.

Actually, it supports all Android versions. Direct rootable are done directly with Doomlord's tool, but all the other versions needs the user to follow instructions. Take into consideration that GB 2.3.6 needs to be downgraded first. But the downgrade firmware and the correct cf kernel are all downloaded by the script, even Odin is included...you just need to press start and follow commands, the rest in done in here.
For ICS, the files needed are downloaded and sent to your sdcard / external_sd. The phone booted in stock recovery and from there on, you have to flash the files....not 100% but don't have to look for the files and the correct thread. All the instructions are in the screen...
Hope you can test it. Thanks for the support....:good:

Easy way to downgrade...
I should have read the instructions more carefully before using this tool. I have been unable to upgrade my Arc S ever since I unlocked it and thought this was a simple solution. Unfortunately I didn't read the details before I pressed the button. The string 4.0.2.A.62 is the build number, not the Android version. Now I downgraded to 2.3.4

sony ericson emma link, as i can se all forgot abot this
Well,now this will most definitely be handy for those new members with unlocked bootloaders and a quick fix to getting device working again if they are in trouble i. e. hung or bootloops etc.etc...
No more crying messages.
(Really gets on my nerve.Because its always stated beforehand about the risk if something goes wrong,they never read this or pretend not to understand)
Its a good customer support act by SONY.
So,they have not given upgrades to 2011 devices.But,maybe now,after seeing all the threads here something might change.
By the way,would this tool in anyway hinder existing flashtool by bin4ry/androxyde in any way?
Just curious.
Thank you SONY.

Xperia V - "STAMINA mode" alternative
Please, can you recommend me any app that works on the same principle as a real STAMINA MODE?
Most important feature:
"Another really useful functionality, is that you can actually choose to white list your most important apps, allowing them to run in the background even when Battery STAMINA Mode is turned on. This way you will get notifications even when your phone rests in your bag or pocket. This is handy if you still want to be able to receive instant messages or IP calls at any time."
I found many apps in Play Store, but the problem is that they have a "WHITE LIST" feature, but this works on another pronciple - see below.
It does NOT stop any app and background data when the white-listed app is running. .
But I need this: Stop all backround data, stop all other apps and keep only 2 my white-listed apps running (chat + notes).

"Super stamina" is just the stock "extended stanby mode" on xperia T and V. It's not the stamina mode of newer devices.
@nreuge: Really? I thought it is a ported original SONY STAMINA (based on the picture).
How do you know it?

Ok, this one is a real port of the new Stamina mode. But unlocked bootloader is required...
1. Which STAMINA did you mean previously?
2. Why did you mention unlock bootloader? I thought I can safely relock bootloader, or not? (In case of warranty claim.)
Many thanks.

The system app for "extended stanby mode" of T and V is superstamina.apk. It's why one call it superstamina.
Regarding the bootloader, I've never tried to unlock it, though I'm considering doing it. Yes, you can relock, but if one day your device is broken down and that you need warranty claim, will you be able to relock?... It's at your own risk!!
1. Yes, you can relock it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2092227
2. The author of this Superstamina port wrote me that it is not compatible with XV
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40501794
So, we need to use this one (http://d.pr/f/zufy) - that is working with XV.

well, days ago i installed .145 firmware and flashed the custom rom. after flashing the CFW it shows my rom is .140 but im sure it is originally based on .145
now im goin to flash the zip u gave me but i want to remove the __MACOSX folder and screenshot file in ur zip folder and u removed so many other files in the framework folder. i think its better to replace the framework folder as chinese one bcoz it might be modified framework,services, bla bla files.
Correct steps should be:
1 - flash .145 FW via Flashtool (e.g. this one: https://disk.yandex.com/public/?hash=vUJGu4EeBG9bSU7iknGU3ak3+5zc1GqIufSoaCgwzAQ=&locale=en)
2 - unlock bootloader
3 - ROOT the firmware
4 - Install e.g. ES File Explorer
5 - Add or Replace only these 6 files below in /SYSTEM folder (of course you need to be rooted)
in /APP:
SemcPowerSaveModule.apk
Settings.apk
SuperStamina.apk
in /BIN:
xssm
in /FRAMEWORK:
core.jar
framework.jar
6 - then reboot
Let me know if it does work.
Failed bro :/
Bootloop !
Now i will flash the clean .145 firmware and will test it again. if again fails we lost it again
In that chinese forum no one giving replys to make it work
---------- Post added at 11:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:24 AM ----------
btw while flashing the .145 firmware i want to exclude the Kernal in flash tool bcoz i already flashed the chinese kernal for S-mode. is it safe to power on the os ?
You need .145 FW - it is written there in the title of that forum thread (if you use Google Translate).
I recommend at first flash FW via Flastool and then that kernel also via Flashtool (.ELF).

there a guy said it seems to work with only vKernal and he is using .140 based custom rom !!! isn't the vKernal posted that posted in their thread ?
I really appreciate your effort - I am not a developer, only a techguy.
It could be nice if you can try this: "vKernal and he is using .140 based custom rom".
Many, many thanks.

I am very sorry for that. My friend on other forum got it working, but he cannot tell me how he did that. He is not sure.
Thank you very much for your time. If you have any good news, please, let me know ASAP.
Thanks again.

Please read the instructions clearly and flash, i will not responsible for any Brick/failures on your Tablet.
Stop by and thanks to @[NUT] without him we don't have the root now.
Copy Paste from his Forum and modified for SGP351
Requirements:
Flashtool by @Androxyde
XZDualRecovery 2.6 RELEASE or newer.
Current FW version: 10.3.1.A.0.307,
Special features:
SuperSU integrated in system, FULL root, no reboots when remounting /system RW!
XZDualRecovery 2.7.62 BETA (CWM & PhilZ Touch & TWRP) pre-installed;
Tailored FTF to minimize the chance of accidental system wiping!
No need to clear caches!
For both locked and unlocked bootloaders!
In the following guide I suggest you use an external SDCard but that's just good practice, you can use your internal storage or even an USB OTG storage device in TWRP if you like to install, that's no problem!... If you are modding and the likes, best is to have an external sdcard, just for safeties sake.
for SGP321\SGP311\SGP312 click Here
SGP351: How to update to 10.4.B.0.569::
For SGP351: Download the files here (SGP351 latest 4.3.zip and SGP351_10.4.B.0.569_US Stripped.ftf), save it somewhere you remember; (mirror)
Put 'SGP351 latest 4.3.zip' on (the external) SDcard1;
Put 'SGP351_10.4.B.0.569_US Stripped.ftf' inside the Flashtool/firmwares folder;
Create a backup of your phone in CWM or TWRP and don't forget to backup the contents of 'SDCard0';
Flash 'SGP351 latest 4.3.zip' in Philz, after flashing the ROM,
do not reboot but go back to the main menu, then go to reboot->power off;
Flash everything in 'SGP351_10.4.B.0.569_US Stripped.ftf';
Reboot to system without clearing (dalvik-/)cache.
The first boot will be considerably slower and after a long wait at the boot animation you will see Android optimizing the apps on your phone.
I have done this myself, using this method and I have not found any problem yet, again! :fingers-crossed:
Enjoy! :laugh:

Just a thought... Considering the XZ phone and the Tab Z LTE have the same firmware number, 10.4.B.0.569 can you flash a fw from the z phone to the tablet? or am i being stupid? i.e. this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2565850

Thank you for your work! That's exactly what i need! :good:
Edit: installed the SGP321 version and I can confirm everything is working fine, including root and recovery!
@`SBR` you can modify the guide, you won't be needing the supersu_fix for this ROM, your package will work just as good, the fix has been applied to the update 2 package
I'm a bit pressed for time and can't support all devices at once with these packages, so exactly THIS is why i created the DIY thread, so people like you can do the same and help a fellow user get a proper rooted ROM with dual recovery :good:

Dropbox links are inoperative due to too much traffic generated, so i can't (better we can't) download the files required to root XTZ (SGP321).
There's a possibility to upload them to another service, like MEGA or GDrive?
I never downloaded the 321 so cant help with those files since I have the 351 but in the meanwhile until links are fixed by the op I put the ftf and latest zip on my drop box for the SGP351 for how ever long it lasts.

Flashed my SGP321 and it works as promised.
Ok, I downloaded 4.1.0.524.apk from the link below for my UK T800 running KitKat v4.4.2 and it worked, and knox is still valid.
Build Number KOT49H.T800XXU1ANFB
I am still on the stock rom, I have never flash my T800.
I tried the latest KingRoot a couple of weeks ago and it just failed, both apk and pc.
I have tried 3 root checks and they all say i have root.

I will need the app that pops up when it askes for root permissions is that kinguser, and the other is kingroot all three are running.
What can i remove or disable??
Thanks
John.
Delete it, it'll start bugging you. It's an app management app. Leave kinguser and delete everything else.
Why not convert to supersu?
Do i not need kingroot or is it`s job done? , So if i need to unistall root, I need kingroot or do i just install it from the apk i used to root in the first place.
I will have a look at supersu , is it a replacement for kinguser.

You don't need kingroot any more.
To replace kinguser you need to follow my rooting guide.
Should be easy for you you've already done half of it. Just install your original Rom if you want kitkat.
I dont want to do any flashing, I am happy with stock kitkat rom now that i am rooted.
I have done enough for today.
Thanks for your help.

I am not interested in Lollipop, too many reports of problems and i dont like all of the white in the stock apps and settings crazy for an oled tablet, there is nothing new that i need now that i have rooted and can read/write to my microsd, I wonder if we will get Android M.
Look at the amount of power white uses compared to an lcd display.
I had my T800 running constantly for over 260 days, No restarts or shutdowns or crashes or anything, kitkat is totally stable at least the way i use it.
John.
Did lollipop get the battery charge and discharge time listed in the link below.

So kingroot really does work on my T700 with Kitkat without tripping Know. BUT - I cannot get rid of it and replace it with SuperSU. Tried any method I found, but it simply seems to protect itself. Did anybody manage to replace the latest Kingroot installation with SuperSU? Any help is VERY MUCH appreciated!

Ah, O.K. I will try the method to remove Kingroot, that is explained there and will propably stay with KitKat.
BUT - if I wanted to go to Lollipop with my SM-T700:
I do not understand this part:
Now we need to flash a Lollipop BOOTLOADER. I have provided a link below for the T800 and T805. If you have a T700/705/T807/T707 or if the ones provided don't work then you will have to extract it from the Lollipop stock ROM and then TAR it up.
Could anybody tell me a little bit more in detail how this is done?
