[Q] Flashing monx ROM - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

1st: Sorry to post here and creating a new thred - have no permissions to postreply in the monx thread
I've already fully rootet Z1 by method from NUT in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2572988
Now I would flash this ROM and after read all this 141 sites I'm a little bit unsure what to flash. In OP I find this for my situation:
SAME FIRMWARE BASE
Flash rom thru recovery without wiping anything.

Since my Z1 is running on the same firmware-base .290 and I have a working recovery and full root, it is really enough just to flash this zip-File?

Ok, full wipe, format system and data and then flash monx zip and everything is fine?
Can @monx® confirm this?

I just did a clean root using [NUT]'s method yesterday. After that you should have a stock rooted rom on the same firmware version. All I did was went into the recovery and flashed the .zip of the full rom. Then I wiped cache and dalvik and that is it. It works no problem

[Q] Xperia T not installing Custom Rom?

Hi,
So I have a Xperia T lt30p and I am trying to get a Custom Rom installed onto it. The current version is Jelly Bean 4.1.2. The roms I have tried are Hybrid, Cyanogenmod 10.1.2 4.2.2 and the new Omni 4.2.2 kitkat rom. I go into recovery (clockworksmods) and wipe data/factory, cache, and dalvik cache and then I go into install zip from sd card. I first click on the rom which says "Completed Successfully" and then I install the Google Apps which also say "Completed successfully". However when I click "Reboot system now" all I get is a black screen!? I waited 5 minutes and then realised nothing was going to happen so I pressed the power button and the phone VIBRATES but still nothing on the screen, then try again and it just vibrates again? Why is it doing this? I know how to get it back up and running again which I used pc companion for but I do not understand why the roms are not installing!? Can someone tell me how to fix this and provide me with a custom rom they have used which works for the Xperia T. I am really bored with the JB 4.1.2 and would like to move a step ahead!
Thank You
Please reply ASAP!!!! :'(

Re: Wipes - Isn't it also a good idea to include /system as part of your wipes when installing a fresh new rom from CWM? (So wipe 1) Data 2) Cache 3) Dalvik cache 4) /system) ?
No Idea

When I was trying to install a Custom Rom, I was following a video and a step by step guide and it did not mention to wipe the system so I didn't do it but I guess you could go ahead with it? Shouldn't harm the phone.
what nightlies did you use to flash your phone? as there have been some problem for xperia t, v to boot correctly for cyanogenmod rom prior to 20131105 if i remember correctly. also, no matter what rom you flash if it is related to cyanogen then it will carry the same problem, as they use the same source to build the rom.

This is called a bootloop. All you need to do is press VOL UP + POWER, then connect your phone to your computer in flashmode (connect USB while holding VOL DOWN button) and flash .534 using Flashtool
Yep, just Hold Volume Down, connect to PC and flash a Stock FTF.

No just go into recovery, flash the monxdified rom zip and then clear cache and dalvik. I have done the same thing and it works perfectly fine. You can flash any 4.3 rom in this way, as you are on the same firmware.

Monxdified, iHackers and all stock based roms don't need a custom kernel (that's why you don't need to be bootloader unlocked to use them)
Just go into your recovery flash the zip. After the zip is flashed you will get an option to clear dalvik and cache.
It is always recommended to do a factory reset before flashing a custom rom, as it might misbehave. You can however try it without factory reset and then if you see that it doesn't work properly just do a factory reset and flash the rom zip again.

[SOLVED][Q] TWRP mounting problem Xperia Z1 (installing paranoid android)

Hi,
I'm trying to get AOSPA4+ (paranoid android 4.2) on my Sony Xperia Z1 (c6903).
I followed this guide:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2714333
But when I tried to format my system to factory through TWRP, it gave some mounting errors.
Code:
Formatting cache using make_ext4fs function.
E:Unable to mount '/data'
Updating partition details...
E:Unable to mount '/data'
E:Unable to mount internal storage.
I already tried going to mounting option manually through TWRP, that didn't work. However, I peeked at the file manager and it seems that '/ ' has some folders and data, but in sdcard and external_sd, nothing's there.
Suggestions to get around the formatting issue? Did it already format when I unlocked the bootloader? I'm guessing I can't format because when I flashed boot.img it removed the OS, therefore no debug mode. Or something...(idk)
I don't know if is necessary to flash just the boot.img from the zip file to get recovery and working rom, maybe this make some issues. You can try in different way, flash back a stock FTF and wipe everything (to get rid of issues), then install TWRP from PC and flash the whole .zip Rom.
omg what did i do??

I flashed 14.3.A.0.757 [NUT][UNBRANDED] and it won't boot anymore! I lost recovery! It's not hard bricked because there is still life..I hope I'm right...
HELP me! I'm so scared..how do I recover from this? My phone gets to the purple boot animation screen for about 4 seconds, freezes for 3, then bootloops.
Press and hold power and volume up button until it vibrates 3 times
then just flash a stock ftf from the mega collection thread
then start again
KEEP CALM AND FLASHSTOCK

Sorry for the stupid questions. I want to be extra careful and not break my phone.. :-\

use flashtool from flashtool.net to flash a FTF file for your phone....
just flash it and then spam me back....

That's not a big problem, just flash the stock kernel from ftf.
It would be better if you flashed the whole ftf so you can start from a clean phone.

WOW it worked like a charm! Thank you so much (adding + rep for saving my phone).
All I need to do is downgrade to 4.2, get root, upgrade back, then flash paranoid android's zip through flashtool? Or TWRP and copy boot.img?
You could, but here is an easier way
flash a ftf ending 534 for your phone
instal dual recovery
flash your choice of rom
(comment deleted, disregard this post)
Being unlocked makes no difference, it just means you can flash custom kernels as well
PS
So many people unlocking their boots and not really knowing what that means..

This I'm assuming is done through TWRP? Or adb and copying boot.img?
Assuming it's done through TWRP, put gapps and Rom on /sdcard, then install ROM then gapps?

I think the OP in that rom thread is saying to install boot.img first to get Recovery, but I will try in different way, use TWRP which you probably will install from pc after you flashed stock .534 FW, when you are in recovery you are ready to go, wipe everything first then install the whole .zip files and gaps in sequnce like the OP is telling. Done, you should have the rom working on your phone.

I will try this. I did something similar to that, except I didn't format my system on recovery. This led to some error that I don't really remember, and then my whole problem came up again, no boot, boot-looping at the 3 second, w/e.
I'll try formatting first before installing, hopefully that will resolve the conflicts that I had. Thanks for your suggestion.

Wow, I must be really unlucky right now. Flashed stock .534 and tried to get root, but Root (from bin4ry v33) says my adb server is out-of date. Chose method 0. Rebooting my phone didn't work.

as far as i know the procedure for installing lollipop is same as all roms before so it goes like that... 1.go to recovery 2.wipe(factory setings) 3. flash this rom and reboot. this rom contains STOCK FIRMWARE so no need to flash stripped ftf also it has ROOT and RECOVERY so there is no worries of loosing it.hope i helped u
Thank u cocagenda2 , but what about the kernel
Should i flash a lollipop kernel ? becouse i'm on kitkat now
I tried to update from 690 w/o wipe nothing, it's working but do not use .690 mods like framework or else - not compatible
