maybe this question is stupid ...

At the moment i have the iHackers v1.1 Rom, but i want to update to 4.3 because of the bl.

Use prerooted one. It's the only one method to have root on 4.3.

No, the prerooted version is also under testing and is not full rooted. Wait few days.

I can't update to .201 via OTA.

So today I have received an OTA update to the newest .201 firmware. I tap install, it downloads and turns off as usual, progress bar shows up and on second dot when progress bar is in the half, the updating stops and phone turns on. What is wrong?

An unlocked bootloader perhaps?

No. It's locked ;/

Do you have a recovery installed?

@XspeedPL
Yes, I had recovery, but I uninstalled it because I thought it was problem, but not, it's still the same ;/ I have CE1 rom.

Instead of OTA update, you tried updating through Sony update service or PC companion?

@spp85
No, because I want to keep root.

Perhaps (not entirely sure ofcourse) is that the cause / issue?

You mean that root is causing this problem? If it won't work then I will eventually update via PC Companion.

Are you using Xposed? Because that caused the update failed when I updated to .254 OTA

Nope. I don't use Xposed framework. I'm out of ideas ;/ Looks Iike I will have to unlock bootloader once again to root to .201

Lost imei after Flashing custom kernel

Hello guys,
I actually wanted to get that double tap to wake and pac/aokp on my z1. I was on 4.4. Did the backups, unlocked the bootloader. I flashed pimp my z1 kernel via twrp. Then I flashed aokp. Imei lost. Same thing for pac. I even tried restoring all partitions from backup and since I was on UB it shouldn't be a problem,right?
Well, even though I restored stock rooted rom which worked perfectly fine before I still did not have the imei.
I went back to stock.534 for now.
Do you guys have any tips for me? Im out of ideas on a crappy rom and I'd really love to get pac/aokp or any other custom rom that is cm based.
Sorry for typos. Writing with stock Sony keyboard is a pain.

If you were trying everything, so you lost your IMEI for ever.

I'm not getting a simlock and I got my imei back. The problem is that if I flash custom kernel with custom rom my imei is gone.

yes, that thread explains how to properly port the rom so you don't lose IMEI or get simlock
which custom roms are you flashing, please provide the links to the thread.

I've tried 2 so far. Both with the kernel provided with rom and with pimped kernel.

Thank you for your interest.

are you on c6903 or c6902?
I know your tapatalk says c6903 but that could have changed depending on your build.prop
Did you flash the c6902 modem packages from both of those roms or not?

I'm using C6903. I'm positive about it.

did you flash the packages though?

Nope. I'm using C6903 I don't think that's a good idea to flash C6903 modules on it or is it?

Those packages are for c6902
It might be worth a go. You may have an actual c6902 handset (Check the box and/or SI number) that is now reporting its c6903 due to a build.prop entry
Try it, you can always flash back to stock FTF as you did last time.

Greg, honestly. I'm using C6903. That's written on a box, on that small thing that slides out of the phone and I can use LTE network without a problem. It's a 100% C6903.
I'll do that though, but I don't think that this will change anything.
Wysłane z mojego C6903 przy użyciu Tapatalka

OK, if you are 100% sure, don't flash the modules
I will have a think and get back to you
I am about to go out with the kids for a long walk
Speak soon

Thank you. Hopefully we will sort it out.

I also tried to do ota to.136 which fails after I press install and the phone gets rebooted. I restored my TA so.that's not an issue.

Never do an OTA with an unlocked bootloader, it explicitly says so on the Sony website where you unlock your bootloader.
EDIT, you relocked, that's good.
Which FTF can you flash and get an IMEI working again

Yeah i know. I double checked if my bootloader is relocked before updating.

.534 FTF gives me back my IMEI. Havent checked anything else yet. I do need a working phone function.

I restored my previous backup and flashed stock kernel via ftf and I'm back to where I previously was (except that all of the contents of internal memory is gone)

I really want to try custom roms.

Update to stock android 4.4 kitkat using SUS or PC Companion or Flashtool (your choice, no difference) then unlock bootloader and do what you want.
I remember when I used to downgrade from android 4..3 (.290) to 4.2 (.534) I used to loose my IMEI. Unless, downgrading to .257 then to .534 So maybe you should get stock android 4.4 before you try 4.4 custom ROM & Kernel

So you can't do anything right now. Unless you have made a backup of your previous stock system...

Mabr could someone who is on stock rom make a backup and send it to me.

I'm not sure if your phone would recognize someone's backup...

I downgraded from B378 to B182 and i want to use the Magazine unlocker so i can get notifications on the lock screen. I downloaded the themes from here http://www.modaco.com/forums/topic/377102-huawei-p9-themes/ since there wasnt any Magazine in my Themes app. But when i try to apply the new lock screen it wont change and i still have the iPhone lookalike lockscreen. What can i do? The phone is not rooted.

Edit: I went to b136, then b166, then updated back to b182. Themes now works.
