Grab it here and use LG extract. to get bin and fls files. Use Smart flash to install.

But you re still able to access CWM? Then you can flash ANY ROM you want... Or do you want to unroot it?

I am just looking for my old nandroid of v20n, you would just have to remove superuser files I guess and it would be fine. Maybe ro.secure=0 from kernel as well, but not really sure...

I am just trying to unroot the ROM provided by tantrums, but I think I need help, cause I dont know, which symlinks I need to remove, and if I maybe forgot any file, that could show them, that it's rooted.
I ll upload the ROM and maybe Redy or Gabz or another Pro can have a look at it
Follow THIS thread
Hope the other guys will help me soon, so you can unroot your phone and bring it to service
There is a 'UnRoot device' option in GingerBreak v1.2, maybe that might be enough?

I read in this topic that it doesn't work, but thanks anyway. Im waiting for the unrooted stock rom from NOOBY.
Now using CM10
Previously used Zeus ROM..
At times of using Zeus, I successfully installed Stock ROM (rooted or non-rooted) whatever I wanted without problems.
But after using CM10, when installing with smartflash tool the stock ROMs, I am getting bootloop...
waiting for good solution...

You definitly made a mistake somewhere. Try the v20s bin/fls files from my noob how to, since they also work for me. Did you wipe everything when you were in recovery + flash superuser.zip? Unroot ROM is ready, but you need CWM to flash it and will lose all kind of root access.

This is the untouched Sony FTF so if you flash with this, it will give you latest build by wiping your phone so root is lost. I created the zip file and stripped FTF for this firmware but didn't upload it. Let me know if you want it, Ill try uploading again... last time dev host was being a bit** about it.

Yes, I want. It will be very nice, if you can upload it.
Simpy flashing with the Falshingtool and uncheck the wipes?

No, on 4.3 it doesn't work like that.
1 - You need to flash back to 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 firmware with flashtool, 1 that will let you root your tablet with a 1 click root method from DoomLord.
2 - Install Recovery once rooted
3 - Upload the zip file to your SDCard and flash the zip from CWM or TWRP
4 - Power Off WITHOUT rebooting
5 - Flash with Flashtool the the stripped FTF
Boot and you will be rooted on the latest firmware.
Its the same way as in this thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588442 )except you will be using the latest files/firmware.
I'll upload the files later for whoever wants them ... getting off work in a few hours.

Previously had root and kept root after update.
Just follow these steps:
1) copy zip to SDcard
2) go into recovery and install zip (without wiping anything)
3) turn off phone
4) flash kernel via flashtool
done.

Waiting for the 4.4 version (Rooted) :good:
Two quick questions... One why is there a part one and two??? Doesn't flash tool only let you select one zip.
Second if I'm fully stock I can still flash with flash tool no root needed.???
May sound stupid but I was told ftf files can be flashed without root via flashtool

Hello everyone,
I would like to know how to convert a non-installable system apk (/system/app/*.apk) into a normally installable apk file.
If there are some needed tools please provide links as this will help me very much doing what I'm planning to do after my exams.
Thanks in advance

No you can't.
You need root.
But you can install it on a non rooted device and root it at the same time on a 534 FTF

Convert file System Apks to installable once, I think is not that simple and I hope someone know how to do that. Otherwise is simpler install recovery and flash them. Sorry to not help much more.

That's exactly what I was thinking about.
But lets get back to the topic, How to make the system apk installable? (I know that some apks in /system/app are installable, but I'm talking about the non-installable ones)

This part is not clear to me. If I installing the Recovery on non rooted device, how the recovery will root it at the same time? I will still have recovery without root.
Option 3 > installation on unrooted ROM.

Because the installation script can gain a temporary root shell
It uses that to install the dual recovery
then its as simple as flashing SuperSU.zip or a pre rooted rom to gain "Full" root.

So don't root your phone
Yeah but they said too that you can update manually even though your phone is rooted but i don't know how to update manually. Can you teach me?
People have tried many apps in the past, and reported that they do not work

mi how to root samsung star 2 sm-g130e withot pc
I have managed to downgrade my Xperia z1 c6906 to 4.4.4 fw. 187 and rooted it.
I wondering now what steps I can take to have it updated to the latest fw and keep root. I used flash tool to flash the 4.4.4 onto my phone and then used towelroot to root it.
I'm also unsure which recovery I can install on the device that will work.
I've searched around for some solutions to no avail and a lot of links for downloads were broken.
Thanks for your help

Downgrading to KK isn't necessary. Use the EasyRoot tool instead.
Alternatively, you can grab a pre-rooted FTF through XperiFirm/XDA or build one yourself.

Are you saying easyroot works on the latest 5.1.1 Sony firmware? Damn I'm an idiot.
I'll try to flashtool to the latest ftf from xperifirm and then easyroot it and go from there.

I don't think easy root works on 5.1.1. I tried it myself.
So what you wanna do is to downgrade to 4.4.4 and use EasyRoot from there, where it really works.
Then you make a pre-rooted FTF file + the latest version you want. You'll need a recovery for your rooted phone.
Flash it, and ta-da, you just brought your roots into the latest version!

you are correct the method linked above didn't work to root.
I did however managed to root 5.1.1 by using kingroot, replacing kingroot with superSU using the terminal editor and then flashing the dual recovery.

Fair enough, this was my old sony phone and I just wanted to breathe new life and usability into it with some custom roms.
If you did go back to 4.4.4 I think you can just pre-root a ftf file and flash it if you want the latest fw
