Time ago I rooted with towelroot (.108, C6903). I totally forgot to get some information about the ta partition. How can I check it? If it's gone, what did I lose?

*#*#7378423#*#* from your phone dialer, go to service tests, then security, if there are entries in there and show the status of ok then you don't need to worry, you haven't lost your ta partition. What I would suggest is that you then go ahead to the thread about backing up the TA Partition and do it.
Simple rooting via Towelroot does not remove TA partition. It's unlocking your bootloader that will remove the TA partition. So if you have not unlocked the bootloader, then your TA partition is still there.
you can find a useful tutorial of using "flash tool" and how flashing .ftf files, here:

Look, you're right saying that's an old thread but you should just download the latest corresponding files (http://nut.xperia-files.com) and you should be done! Otherway Google "how to unlock bootloader xz1" or stuff you need and you'll find more recent guides.

Hi there, ive came all the way here from the Defy turf and im really confused about flashing my new xperia z. ive tried my best reading the tutorials but it seems to be alot harder to flash the xperia z with proper backup, i mean i used to flash my Defy pretty much everyday without worrying much.
So my question is very basic.. btw I have root my xperia z through the "[Exploit by: goroh_kun & huhka_com]" method, and the bootloader is unlocked.
1. Is it possible to backup my unlocked stock Xperia Z with DRM & BE2? i know there are both twrp and cwm, but ive heard that once I "flash" my phone I will loose everything even with the SD card... (i mean when u talk about flash, there are tons of file types u can flash such as img, rar, zip etc and also tons of ways to flash, so which way to flash is the best without loosing eveything?)
And if yes, is there a step by step guide about how to use the flashtool? (i know there are million posts about what a flashtool is, but what i need is a step by step on how to install/flash cwm or twrp on an unlocked stock xperia z with DRM & BE2.) I mean I would like to be able restore if I dont like the custom roms.
2. does upgrading from the Sony update wipe out all data? i mean for the future 4.2 update can I just update without loosing from what I have at the moment (an unlocked and root stock xperia z)?
sorry to ask all these basic questions, but ive been searching alot with no clear answers...
thanks!:good:

uh bro. as soon as your bootloader is unlocked, DRM keys are GONE FOREVER. Unlocking your bootloader wipes everything too. by everything i mean your photos, music etc as well.
secondly, some updates might wipe data, and some don't

thanks for the reply. but i dont really understand, because I still have BE2 and track ID working, how do I check if I still have my DRM keys? i know i have an unlocked bootloader through *#*#7378423#*#* but i dont remember unlocking my phone apart from using the [Exploit by: goroh_kun & huhka_com] method to root my XZ. Can a XZ come unlocked from a Sony Retail store?

You're not confusing unlocked and unlockable are you?
The only way to unlock the bootloader that I'm aware of involves getting an unlock code emailed to you from Sony via their official unlocking website.
While the bootloader is unlocked you will not be able to update to a new official Sony ROM either OTA or via their provided PC/Mac software tools.
Locking & unlocking the bootloader is explained clearly here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2153261
The bootloader will be locked on all new, unopened XZs
regardless of place of purchase, a phone purchased from Sony will (should) be carrier unlocked however.

nope, recoveries dont back up your drm keys.
you have to use the Backup TA tool that was posted, this one

Remember, ALWAYS, MD5 sum check before flashing, flashing someone else's or corrupted TA will HARD BRICK your device,

Problems Solved
Hi,
I unlocked the bootloader and took a TA backup. I tried to flash the CM kernel, but could not do it as the instructions seemed too vague. Hence I wanted to go back to stock. So this is what i did.
I used the flash tool and flashed the stock ROM again. After that I restored the TA backup again. But I still see that my camera is not working. Hence wanted to know.
1. How to get the camera working after unlocking the bootloader ? Is flashing TA enough?
2. Will restoring the TA backup lock the bootloader again? If not, how to lock the bootloader again?

Also after flashing a custom rom (which needs unlocked bootloader), can i flash the TA partition to get the camera functionality?
No, as I said, restoring the TA relocks the boot loader, which means you can't boot a custom kernel. So any custom rom that needs a custom kernel will result in boot loops.

As Greg's already said flashing the TA file will restore you back to normal, which means that it's kind of pointless unlocking the bootloader as of yet, unless you can live without your camera, personally i can't.
Just root the device and flash Monx's rom, at least until someone fixes it (unlikely) or Sony release a new version of android and hopefully fix the issue with the camera, keep those TA back up's safe by the way, each one is unique so you couldn't borrow someone else's.

Oh sorry, yea its decent enough, ive got the kitkat launcher on it I find it better and the "Ok Google" is brilliant, strictly speaking you don't need a rom from here, having a stock rom will work as all the mods that you can get will come from xposed anyway.
Give it a whirl and see how you go, thats the best way to know with rom's m8 as some people just don't like what others do.
Hi All
So firstly I should say I only have myself to blame. I'm quite a techy guy so I just assumed i'd be able to root my phone without any issues and pick it up as I go. What i've quickly found out is i'm in way over my head and i'm an absolute noob!
Any advice would be greatly appreciated from those guys out there that actually know what they are doing. I have read many forums but i'm still lost.
My story is as follows:
- I have a Z1 that was locked on stock firmware 4.4
- I read that it would be a good idea to unlock the bootloader so i did this
- I wanted to root my phone but from what I read I could see I would have to downgrade the firmware to 4.2. So this is what i did.
- By doing this I lost my IMEI number, got very worried i'd ruined my phone. I tried many things to restore it, there were a variety of different solutions online, none of them worked. I eventually flashed a 4.3 firmware i found on this forum which restored my IMEI.
- I then read through a few posts of people who had similar issues and advice was given to downgrade again (if i wanted to root) but this time exclude the baseband etc. I did this, but lost my IMEI again! the advice didn't work
- So I then went and updgraded again! to 4.3 to restore my IMEI and network access
- There doesn't seem to be a way to root on 4.3 so my phone isn't rooted, that's ok. But when i try to use my banking apps they don't work! they say my phone is rooted even though it isn't! I have checked with root checker
- Like an idiot, i didn't back up the phone when i first started doing all of this, i didn't really know what i was doing so I am now in a situation where i have the worst of both worlds. They are, i can either 1. downgrade the firmware to 4.2, root my phone but not have a valid IMEI and network access or 2. stay on 4.3, have a valid IMEI and not be rooted but certain apps think i'm rooted so i can't use them.
So all in all i've just messed things up and i'm in way over my head. I would really appreciate some advice
Thanks
Yes you are right.
Also, there is no issue with losing IMEI when downgrading, it happens to everyone, but it comes back when you upgrade.
Also, if you unlock the bootloader there is no need to downgrade, that is a locked bootloader method of rooting
You should root before unlocking the bootloader in order to backup the TA partition, but you are too late now...
Solution
1) Use flashtool to relock the bootloader
2) Use pccompanion to update to latest firmware
3) Unlock the bootloader again with flashtool
4) Flash a custom kernel for stock based ROMs
5) Install SuperSU from the play store.
DONE!

I don't think so, the unlocked bootloader method is very generic and there are hundreds (if not thousands) of guides and probably as many videos.

Hi Greg, can you give me a bit more advice please.
i'm just looking at the tutorial to relock by bootloader. It says "before u relock bootloader u have to be on pure stock kernel (flash only the kernel.sin using flashtool), else the device WILL NOT BOOT after relock"
The problem is i'm already flashed on to an FTF image that was on this site. From so by doing this am i going to brick my phone? i'm confused and i don't want to make things work so your advice would be apprecaited

4.2: Camera doesnot work (BIONZ is disabled)
4.3: X-Reality doesnot work, camera still work
4.4: X-Reality + Camera still work
BUT DRM KEYS ON TA PARTITION WILL LOSS FOREVER IF YOU DO NOT BACKUP BEFORE UNLOCK BOOTLOADER, AND ALSO YOUR WARRANTY.
i dont have the warranty anymore so 4.4.4 is the best to unlock cause x-reality and camera still works?

It is recommended not to do that first, but to root first
That way you can backup the TA partition to relock your bootloader and restore your DRM keys if you want to. If you unlock first then you lose the DRM keys forever.

Is there a way to disable the sensor so I can enable and lock screen on call just by the power button? I'm seeing some app on the play store but I prefer a tips from you before make some other damage.
If it's possible without root, but if the only solution need root (so unlock the bootloader) I'll do it.

you can flash the phone with the correct version and region, just select flash system only, you won't lose any of your data, i did that several time for testing mods, don't forget to backup TA partitions if your BL is locked, just in case :highfive:

I'm just curious how can i do it myself? Where is this option to recalibrate proximity switch?
