sony xperia z 10.3.1.a.0.244 bootloader locked rooted

Try install a untouched one.
If you cant find one, ill upload one of mine this night(german time)

probably need to flash the system r/w exploit or something like that. phonebook and contacts apk are system apps which would require you to be able to write to the system to change them. hope this helps

Please do not duplicate threads.

If your recovery works, get into recovery and flash the rom that you are on without doing a full wipe. Alternatively do a full wipe and flash whatever you want.
You could also do a fix through SUS or PC Companion but that will most likely do a full wipe and remove the root.
After you are done root again and apply any MODs that you have had previously. Apply the MODs one by one to see which one (if any) causes the problem on your phone.
Next time please post help related issue in the Q/A, help forum.

Your link doesn't work. Usually you can just check what's inside the mod zip file and replace them with the same files from the stock which should restore your phone back to stock.
LOL he flashed Rizal's Cybershot mod... that is meant for 4.1.2 dude...
did u do a backup before u flashed it? cos if u didn't u're gonna have to replace a _LOT_ of files...
my suggestion is to reflash (flashtool) your firmware, only do not wipe data
Still help needed
Guys first of all thanks for addressing my problem
Yes i didn't do a backup....
Just tell me what to do and i'll do it...
Anything to get my camera back
I dont want to lose any data...
use flashtool to reflash the ftf, make sure u UNCHECK the part where is says Wipe Data.
good luck
Mods needed
Guys do anyone of you know mods to get:
1.Double Tap to unlock from Lockscreen from g2
2.samsung s4 camera port
3.ios 7 Lockscreen
And more awesome mods?

If your bootloader is unlocked, yes, if not, don't yet know of any that actually works.

For one who has a lock bootloader, The only way I know is that u have to downgraduate to a vision which is easy to root and REC, Andriod 4.1 for example. After that u may update to the latest vision by a flashable zip using the CWM, then flash the kernel by flashtool.

True, I actually did that before now that I remember. I just made a deodexed/zipaligned/rooted 4.3 flashable zip ROM out of the latest .199 FTF, but I haven't tested it yet; I haven't seen any other flashable 4.3 ROMs for XTX.

Cool. With mine I first want to see if I can manage to add Philz recovery to the stock kernel which I'm currently using, that way it will be a complete flashable zip file, with recovery and everything.

By any chance is the zip you made deodexed? If it is, does "Settings" force close when you open the sync menu for your Google Account?

Well, I initially flashed the version found here, but after booting it wouldn't detect my Sim Card, so I then flashed my version, and the only problem was what I mentioned in my previous post - Settings would FC every time I'd open the Sync menu for my Google Account.
Every time I flash a ROM I always wipe /system for good measure, but then I tried again with the initial version that wouldn't detect my Sim Card, except this time I didn't wipe /system manually (which supposedly is done by the script anyway, from what can be seen in the updater-script), and now it's working fine, no issues at all.

Btwn u can find a flashable zip port in cross development section. Use that..

I managed to get the original album apk from my FTF. I've tried Root Explorer and FX w/ Root to install the original apk and I get an 'App not installed'. Not sure how I managed to do it last time. I guess worse come to worse, I'll just reinstall the whole phone, but trying to avoid that.

Yeah i tried it too. The album works fine for me but the walkman constantly fc'ed. Tried installing the walkman backup i had with no success. The only way to make it work again was to flash the firmware again. FYI I'm on stock rooted.

I think it's best to wait for someone to port 4.4.4 from the z3 to the z2. It shouldn't be That hard.

I know its too late but instead of flashing firmware again you can just remove the apk's and update center will see that the apps are missing and it will download and install them again.

I have one question, you work Sound Photo and one more thing you have problem google.proces pops up an error that the service is stopped
Can I simply flash this rom with Cwm over PureXZ Ultra v3 or do I have to flash a kernel with flashtool afterwards? Locked bootloader here.

Just flash the ROM after wiping data, cache, dalvik cache..
#Borias yes you can flash it, just make a clean install,wipe everything through recovery and follow these steps... 1-flash the rom 2- flash directly on cwm any 283 kernel of your choice (I prefer Hodor kernel) 3- Reboot system and let it settle.. 4- Reboot into recovery and flash superuser fix 5- Reboot system and enjoy it.

Yes you can. You don't need to flash stock kernel because PureXZ ultra has a kernel image inside the zip. So no special steps are needed.

Use CWM or Philz Touch to flash the ROM.. And if u r coming from 4.3/4.4.2 or any other CM/AOSP based ROMs, flash the 4.4.4 stripped kernel from zippy's thread.. See instructions for that..
I installed XZDual recovery and it rebooted me to Teamwin recovery, is that wrong? I was on rooted 4.4.4

saw your post that you said you will be rebasing the rom.
will you be able to include:
- x-reality/super vivid options like how it was on your current v3?
- and whatever you're doing that makes the camera start up faster and lockscreen glitter nicer!
also i noticed that sometimes while trying to unlock my screen i have a black wallpaper for a few seconds instead.
not sure if thats a bug, but its nothing major as it doesnt always happen.
(note: it happens on the default wallpaper as well)
thank you!

All the stuff from V1 and V2 will be there along with some improvements.. Plus that lockscreen black image is a bug from Stock.. I'll try fixing it anyways..
