Welcome! Is this for stock firmware only? Would be very useful for custom ROMs...
Does it root it 4 times in a row?

It is actually just for the Beta program, but I could possibly make an addition for custom ROMs

Yes Beta builds are only supported at the moment. I don't have a device to test the older builds. If anyone wants to add the feature I would be glad to merge.

Hello I would like to give this a shot, this is a silly noob question but I wanted to be clear before I try. To execute the python command, is this same process of opening CMD in ADB/fastboot folder? If so I am not exactly clear as what to type to run the command. Is it just >>bash
python root.py<< and all good or ....? Thanks you in advance for any assistance provided.

Install Python 2
https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-2714/
Then, if using Windows OS, run the script in Powershell or CMD
Thanks I will give it a shot in a bit and reply back, Thanks for the rapid response.
interesting I installed python from the link provided and ran the command in CMD and it spits back 'bashpython' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

How can you be asking this question in a support forum, in a thread specifically about how to automate the root process? While this thread is surrounded by other threads with custom kernels and custom roms?
Please don't buy this phone. You need root. This community does not need you

How can I get the source of android that works on HTC Kaiser?
I mean the source for the Android, not the linux kernel. It seems that the official one doesn't work.
Depends on which android version you mean. And you can find them in the rom development thread.

There is no Android that works on the Kaiser. The rom chefs take the Android version and run it in a Linux shell within Windows Mobile.

Extracting the code for yourself so you can reverse engineer and create exactly what you were after in the first place. Job's a good'un.

LOL. Not everyone here is a developer. You're posting here and you clearly aren't.
As for respecting others, perhaps you should follow your own advice, rather than stating that people here should feel some sort of embarrassment because they haven't provided you with the level of support that you clearly think you're entitled to.

Hello,
Since Dev Preview 3 i'm not able to use ADB anymore. My Device is detected, if using "ADB devices" but it's unauthorized. I tried nearly everthing on tipps around, but nothing works. I don't get any RSA Key Popup Dialog on my Nexus 6 to confirm connection. Anything new or special i need to do ? Also there's no list of keys i could revoke in developer settings anymore, i'm really lost.
regards,
nEUTR0n
You need to flash something from a kernel thread. I saw it mentioned in the vomer M thread about 2 days back or so.

Hi everyone,
As some of you may know, due to Sony cracking down on the beta program, it's impossible to share the new Beta firmware with everyone. @niaboc79 asked me if I could try to do a system dump and surprisingly, it worked fine with ADB.
I'm not really sure what you guys can do with it but I thought I may as well share it with everyone so you'll find it in the link at the end of this post.
I'm uploading it to Mega right now, it's pretty heavy (over 2 gigs) so please be patient but I should think it'll be ready in an hour or so.
Update: link provided at the bottom of the post
Have fun with it and if it is of any help, I'll post future Beta system dumps if and when they become available.

It will be better if he could back it up as .img files than we can easily flash it. Because it is not so easy to flash system folder. But maybe it isn't possible I don't know. I'm now trying something but it probably won't work.

Not some tutorial or something to install it, it was a question, as he mentions that works with ADB
Why do you guys keep posting these questions in development section? Its clearly written that its a system dump from the new Beta update.
ITS IS NOT A ROM, this is not ready for users to flash, this is a dump for developers to work with and hopefully create a working flashable ROM.
Please dont spam and wait for a flashable version.
People just dont like to read op or comments,anyway this will probably go out of beta in a week or two,same as last update did.Why such haste then,just dont brick your phones guys by trying to get this FW in weird ways,there will be a flashable soon
I don't know if it's possible to extract the boot.img without su privileges, if it is can someone provide me with how to do it and I'll gladly help.
And yeah, it's pretty obvious that this isn't a rom but it's harmless in the sense that in the current state, nobody can actually flash anything accidentally and brick their phone. So, I'm leaving it up as it is and people can do whatever they want, I'd be happy if a rom could be made out of this but I certainly don't pretend to have the skills to do it myself which is also why I'm only sharing what I can.

UT 16.04 is nice and all but how do i upgrade the os so i could use libertine tweak tool and chromium web browser or google chrome in general
Ubuntu Touch is not like a typical linux desktop, 16.04 is th current version for Ubuntu Touch, and trying to update it will result in a bricked ROM, Libertine can be setup in the settings, chrome/chromium will not work however the built in browser "Morph" is a chromium based browser. The broken zips should also be fixed now.
Is it available for N910 G
Is it available for N910 G
I am not sure if its a snapdragon or exynos version, if it is a snapdragon then in theory yes, but it is untested to my knowledge. you are welcome to try it and let me know if it works or not, I can add it to my build list if you have something like the modem not working but everything else works.
