Forget about what i say up here. I just want to root it please

Unlock the bootloader,install twrp recovery through fastboot,flash a custom kernel and install Magisk.
You will find guides to everything what i said so i don't need to write instructions here,look them up yourself.

[Q] How to make this option in custume ROM

Hello, That's long time to get suitable ROM for me. I have tried all of ROM with stock kernel. Some of ROM have apk installer like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Anyone know how to make or adding this installer option in my ROM?
Thanks
Well,if you want to get that button,you should install another rom or you may adjust the place where the application install in settings>application>manage application,
Moreover,I suggest that you should flash another kernel because there are fewer and fewer ROMs for stock kernel~

my magic number is 11w47, I can't do anything
thanks for information bro
OK just delete PackageInstaller.ODEX before applying this patch.
And then install it via CWM Recovery.
"SPECIAL THANKS" Goes to yousef-p for this patch.
Tell me if it works.

but,not all of 11w29+ can't unlock bootloader.
some can...
check first using the s1 tool..
if its can detect an read your id,mean you can.
but if can't..it's very risky..
try to unlock using other method..

You need to read carefully.
The ROM *requires* nAa kernel to work and should be flashed in CWM recovery.

flash this with flashtool. this is stock rom for x8 untouched so you have to root it and make other steps again!

Not xRecovery. Just root with x8toolbox, unlock bootloader, install a kernel and flash the ROM in CWM recovery. xRecovery is old, it's not used anymore.

A bootloop after another !

so i found out that working with a 4.2.2 version of android is making my device extremely laggy, so i basiaclly completely formatted everything via windows from my mobile and decided to start fresh, i want to downgrade, i know how to do it and all,but it keeps getting stuck in a boot loop when i flash this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
so anyway i went on to another trial which is this one and odin wouldn't go through the installation
so i tried to download a zip rom and install it after adding a kernel, and it just keep restarting the phone when i try, all i need is a smooth rom with a suitable version of android for my i9000, if you can't answer, just post a link to a rom.
You need to install stock rom first, then add cwm, then install! If you just do this 4.2>2.3 you will get a bootloop
I didn't saw your 2 pic.
stupid question.. have you wiped?

yes i did wipe ofc ^^
i am installing the stock rom, and is it really important to get the stock rom for my country ?
i am installing a kernel before the stock rom, maybe that would work and yes i am downgrading from 4.2.2 to 2.3

If running stock rom you need to disable RIC by repacking kernel with a script
Follow step 5: https://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/root-root-stock-firmware-modern-sony-t3558904
And read this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xp...ia-z1-lollipop-5-1-1-build-14-t3246373/page12
SUPERUSER said:
Its recommended to use these sketchy last resort rooting options to get root to be able to backup ta partition before unlocking the bootloader or whatever you need to do and then replace it with a proper root.
If you are running stock rom and want to root this.
Then to keep it simple I recommend to flash a stock rom with flashtool and then follow the guide here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/root-root-stock-firmware-modern-sony-t3558904
You need a stock rom downloaded to repack the stock kernel and then flash it back to the device.
So Its much simpler if you actually download a stock rom and flash it while you're at it.
http://www.flashtool.net/index.php
While you are following the guide make sure to disable ric in the script too.
Otherwise you won't get rw to system partition.
Since chainfire supersu is completely handed over to that chinese business I recommend to migrate to magisk instead.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
And lastly when the phone is booted up install busybox

SUPERUSER said:
Sorry ....somehow I didn't see your notification and totally missed to reply to you.
If you are stuck on the sony logo you configured the script wrong.
Say N to everything but RIC or the phone will not boot.
I repacked the kernel from my Togari to demonstrate but the procedure is exactly the same for Honami.
