install all drivers that need for x8 here and here
1. use flash tool - click PADLOCK icon
or
2. use x8toolbox

i have pc company i believe that covers it as i have read

use superoneclick

the problem is that i used superoneclick and it stucks at a point where it says rageagainstthecage
BlackRabbit1703
how do i install
X8_drivers??

turn on usb debugging then use superoneclick, try newer version...if u'r using newer then use 2.1.1..it worked for me.....have u installed gordon't gate drivers?
if superoneclick 2.1.1 not working then install gordon gate drivers then use flashtool for root

no need for flash mode with x8toolbox, you just connect it without doing anything, with usb debuging on

[Q] Ubuntu - Rooting and Unlock the boot loader

I got the flash tool working on Ubuntu 13.04 and i tried DoomLord easy rooting tool kit many time but it just run the script in Ubuntu and do nothing.(I extracted the file and click on the .sh file).
I have enable usb debugging and unknown sources. (Open JDK is also installed to get the flash tool done)
I want to know how to root my device using flash tool and unlock the boot loader.
Someone can help me on this (I'm not a advance user of Linux) or can someone send some links from which i can learn on this issue.
I have also installed latest android tools fast boot on Ubuntu.
Thanks for developers in advance for their commitment and other members who share their knowledge freely.
Thanks again:good:

Hey Mate!
I used Ubuntu 13.04 to root my device and then unlock bootloader.
Its super easy. But you need to tell me whether after plugging in the device, it's getting recognized in Nautilus or not.
Let me know. :good:

No my bootloader is allowed to be unlocked.i have the unlock code already. So what's is point of locking the device by the carrier.

Did you download the latest version of Flashtool?
I suggest you root first. While rooting keep in mind:
(1) enable "USB DEBUGGING"
from (Menu\Settings\Applications\Development)
(2) enable "UNKNOWN SOURCES"
from (Menu\Settings\Applications)
(3) [OPTIONAL] increase screen timeout to 10 minutes
(4) connect USB cable to PHONE and then connect to PC
My files were extracted in Downloads folder in a folder called root. So adjust your steps accordingly.
Go to this folder, right click on linux_me.sh and select properties. From permissions, set as executable.
Then go to terminal. and type
cd `/Downloads/root
sudo sh ./runme_linux.sh
Type in the password and hit enter. Follow the instructions and you will be rooted.
Hope this helps

Rooting
Thanks for your reply in advance.
This command is not working it says can't open runme_linux.sh
Im so disappointed.I cant even use the flash tool.
Can someone please help me on this.Please.
Thanks
Can Someone please tell me how i can get to know whether my phone is carrier locked or not.

Got the things done
Hay sarkar i got my divice roorted with doom easy rooting tool kit. It was a super easy method.Thanks for your advises and time.

[Q] need help with rooting

I have an Xperia T its says that the boot loader can't be unlocked but is there still a way to root the phone to put superuser on it.
Its my first android and any help will be appreciated and please direct me to where i need to be.
the build number for the phone its 9.1.A.1.145

Yes, rooting is possible without unlocking the bootloader. Please read the All-in-One thread, all the information is in there. Then, use Doomlord's Easy Rooting Toolkit to root.

Have you enabled unknown sources in security?

yes and it didn't work so is there any other root loaders that work on mac as i don't like using my little sisters laptop

hahaha
You never said it was mac
Try a Linux machine, or windows 7

i was on a windows laptop and its not very good and i was asking if there was any mac versions of the root loaders

again,
try linux

i haven't got a linux machine only a windows 8 laptop and an iMac so is there any .sh that will work on mac

Can confirm that option 2 no longer works from the .145 firmware. I need to go back to stock and restore my backup TA to send the phone back for warranty repair. I start the display service test as instructed and nothing happens. I'm on windows 7.

I have the same problem even though I have been rooted before. Haven't found a solution yet.

Use mtp (media transfer mode) instead of msc. I had this problem and I fixed it with this method

The solution I found was just to flash a .303 ftf and root it from that. Rooting becomes very easy.

Looking to go AOSP from Stock KK [4.4.4]

Sooooooooooo,
I have a Z1 [C6903] that I picked up yesterday. It came with 14.2.A.1.136 Jellybean 4.3.
I wanted to
Unlock bootloader
Install custom recovery
Root
Install any nice AOSP ROM [preferably LP-based]
I installed the Minimal ADB-Fastboot 1.4.
I also installed the Flashtool 0.9.18.2.
I also installed the Z1 device, Fastboot, and Flashmode drivers [version 1.6.2] from the driver folder. It first failed, and then I disabled driver verification then everything went smooth!
Device manager recognized the phone in MTP and Fastboot, and Flashmode modes. Drivers installed correctly I presume.
Then the challenges arrive:
adb devices returned it as "offline"
Android studio couldn't push a project to it because it was offline
fastboot devices identified it, but fastboot -i 0x0fce getvar version returned an error [getvar:version FAILED (command write failed (Unknown error))]
Things I've tried to do to rectify the connectivity issue:
I'm using a SurfacePro 4 so I can't switch USB ports [only have one].
I've tried different cables - they yield the same result.
I've enabled and disabled USB debugging, revoked access, unplugged and replugged, rebooted, etc. Still no change in result.
Since the device had some OTA updates pending, I ran those and now i'm on 4.4.4 with 14.4.A.0.157, with some other updates currently waiting for me to accept so they can download. I've decided to post here for help and won't run those updates unless it increases my profit
PS: Even after the updates, adb and fastboot still are unchanged in their results.
Help please
Update:
It was a freaking USB cable. I had tried two of them. None had worked.
I finally unleashed my Anker USB cable and Boom! We good to go!!!
Thanks all!:highfive::highfive::highfive::highfive:

The phone shows up in the computer, it just doesn't show as online when I run the adb devices command.
That's what I need help with.

ahh have you tried using
Code:
adb kill-server
adb start-server
and trying again?
What should happen is the authorisation window pops up on your phone

Excellent! I did that, too. even manually closed and restarted adb.exe to no avail.
The thing is, my Z1 DOES NOT show me the authorization pop-up! Ever!
I've done this a million times on other phones, and I know the procedure. It's just that this Z1 is not showing the authorization popup
Thoughts?

this could work with you
i assume that you rooted your phone you will do that:
1. open your favorite file explorer(suggest: ES File Manger)
2.go to /data/misc/adb/
3.delete "adb_keys" file
4.enable usb debugging
5.reinstall your drivers
6.open command and kill adb server(adb kill-server)
7.connect your device and run command (adb devices)
8.look at your device you will find text box telling you a new pc check always trust bla bla and click trust or something like that

Hey there! Please check here for a firmware file that works for you.
When you've downloaded, use the Flashtool to flash it to your phone.
If you want help flashing it to your phone, check this thread out.

This could problem with installing drivers as PC don't detect adb in debugging mode
So disable driver verification again and install drivers from flashtool remember to check
1. Fastboot drivers
2. Flashmode drivers
3. Xperia Z1 drivers
And restart
If the problem not fixed try adb universal drivers just Google it
I was have same problem with win 8.1 but I didn't all that I just installed win 7 and do it
Remember to backup ta before unlock to backup your DRM keys
