[ROM][TX][STOCK] 7.0.A.3.212_Rooted

Hello Guys...This is a stock rooted (CF SuperSU) with busybox rom for LT29i.
The Rom is pretty stock. Only modifications were to root and zipalign the rom. As there are not loads of stock roms in .zip for the TX i though i'd give it a go for those who want a stock rooted rom
Click Here to Download For Odexed ¦ Click here to Download for Deodexed
Installation Instuctions:
1) Downgrade to ealiest 1.307 Rom by flashing an FTF (Obivously backup anything first) through flashtool
2) Root using Bin4ry's method
3) Flash CWM for Locked Bootloader (am using a version 6.0..x.x)
4) Install Zip from SD Card my Rom you downloaded from CWM
5) Install Zip from SD Card a flashable version of CWM
6)Flash This after flashing rom otherwise your phone will keep rebooting if you try to edit system files (Thanks to Sharaz22 for this link and Leo for reporting the issue and solution)
7) Flash a 3.212 FTF through Flashtool again (exclude everthing except kernel). This will get you back to latest kernel
1.307 FTF, 3.212 FTF, bin4ry's root method and CWM installation can be found in Gregbradley's all in one thread in Q&A
For those already having root and CWM on an earlier version you need only start from step 4
Credits:
Thanks to Gregbradley for this precious help...this was my first time cooking :good:
Thanks to Dogsly for this 3.212 FTF from which this Rom was extracted
Thanks to all other persons who helped indirectly

Follow the instructions in the OP and you will end up with this ROM and it will be rooted. But you need to follow those instructions precisely.

Yes. Dropbox blocked the link due to excessive traffic. I am uploading to another mirror right now. Shall be ready soon. I will keep you posted.
The 1.307 FTF can be found in Gregbradley's all in one thread. In the Q&A section

Thank you very much my dear friend:good:
Finally rooted my xperia tx:laugh:

Hi,
I have stock 212 and unlocked bootloader and Advanced Stock Kernel V5 (from here, I thought that with installing that kernel I would have root on 212.. wrong).
Since I got already CWM, can I just flash your ROM or do I need to follow all the steps from OP?
Thanks!

ROOT for 4.3?

Any root available for 4.3 that does not involve downgrade of firmware?
Like the 360 root or Vroot that i just "plug and play"

You will he aware when root is available but at the moment nothing along them lines for 4.3 is been done/confirmed working
Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk

Think unlock recovery, install custom cwm, flash latest supersu should work though

also possibl when OTA updates starts popping up mybe updating OTA might keep root from .257 if you had it rooted...
but no one tried it yet, i'm waiting for OTA personally.

i tried with kingo... but a message say that want install mtk camera, maybe is the exploit for root.. but i stop the installation

lol... the new firmware has not even been out for a full day and people are already asking for various things... let the devs play with it a little.. geez....

What I know will be released soon a rooted firmware .290 Android 4.3. So stay tuned, when come out just update and done.

I've created rom for recovery with root and recovery, root works, but root file managers can't mount system for write but titanium works fine

Fully Rooted Firmware with Android 4.3 was released today!

No, it's not the root method as well. It's just a 4.3 zip and we flash it into the 4.2 (.257) kernel

I know is not a Root method. Devs do not do miracles but if you want 4.3 rooted this is the way.

That does not give full root, mounting system is still a problem that we are working on.

Unlock bootloader and install an insecure kernel
or
Downgrade, root, install a recovery then update to a pre rooted rom.
Look in the development section for the links, they are not hidden.

[Q] Root on Vodafone ROM

Hi all!
Well my problem is the following: I would like to root my Xperia Z1 and have the latest KitKat Rom, nevertheless I like using Vodafone's stock Rom as it includes Vodafone Wallet app, which allows me to pay with my phone using NFC. The problem appears because it's not possible to use Vodafone Wallet app on a Rom which is not original from vodafone, but I don't find any .zip fle which includes a rooted version of vodafone's 14.4.A.0.118 rom.
My question is, could anyone make a zip of that rom which is already rooted, deodexed and so?
Tank you in advance, Axel.

Don't get it...
Why don't you root your, Vodafones firmwares?
Deodexing is very simple as well...
You have tool for it in cros section.
Flash ftf
Root it
Install recovery
Extract files with that deodexing tool to your PC
Deodex them
You'll get flashable zip
Flash that zip

As far as I know for rooting it is necessary to downgrade to .534, root it, install custom recovery, and install an already rooted zip drom it, isn't like that?

No...
That was old method.
You have easy root and few other root tools for direct root.

Okey, i was able to root and install recovery, however, when deodexing rom, I falshed the Zip and now my phone won't boot. Any idea about how can i solve it? Really, if not asking for too much, if someone could upload the zip i'm asking for he/she would make me really happy as I'm not such an expert. Thank you in advance

That's the tool I used and now my phone won't boot. Tried both, with and without zippaligning the apks

I am just testing it now.
I did flash a deodex.zip this morning to my Vodafone .118 FW that someone had uploaded and I ended up in a bootloop. It was a strange one as it was part way through the bootanimation when it rebooted.
Once I have made my patch I will test it and let you know.

Okey! yes I saw that patch 5 min ago and tried and again had the same problem... I guess I'll flash an FTF and stay w/o doing nothing until someone is able. And really, thank you very much for helping me, hope you are able to find a solution

There are some issues on some fw, yes.
Try to ask @Ben Ling what changes he did in scripts to avoid bootloop.
You'll have to change few lines, nothing complicated but I don't know which one...actually I can't remember.
You have my post on that thread
Try to fix those line and then try.
Or simply ask Ben to do that for you...

[Q] Is it already possible to create a pre-rooted flashable zip?

Is it already possible to create a pre-rooted lollipop flashable zip?, though I would like to get 23.1.A.0.726 PH (philippines) region? What do I need to have in order to create one and flash it to my phone.

There is a complete tutorial in the general forum. Of course your region has to have this version released

I've actually looked in that section though I was never really clear (maybe it's just me),
I've already downloaded the version I wanted to pre root and turn into a flashable zip but I dont know which recovery to use..

Thanks mate! Though my problem right now, I just found out that without debloating it before flashing, it would have problems with google play and experience bootloop with xposed.
