Hi DoomLoRD
Just a gentle reminder, as requested, for the D2303 CWM Using the kernel Extracted from 18.0.C.1.13 FW.
:good:Thank you so much for the help
As far as I know TA backup needs root and to root you need to unlock the bootloader.

I think @DooMLoRD hasn't visited this thread for a while. Let's remind him with this one
More support for our version of the M2 will come with time. It's only been out just over a month now maybe two months.

hi @G-FACE !! long time no see... you have the X10 right?
my development laptop has gone for repairs so cant build anything right now..
but you guys should check out TowelRoot... you might get root on LOCKED bootloaders too!!!
Hi ya @DooMLoRD Haha, glad you remember me. Yes I am, and I'm keeping my good old X10 as a second talky-talk phone.
I was trying to help out to root my friend's M2, and yes TowelRoot worked perfectly on it. :good:
Don't flash this on dual sim model! It's a different kernel. It will end in a bootloop!

12This is a CWM-Based Recovery 6.0.4.6 Touch Recovery for Xperia M2 (Single SIM)!
Credits and special thanks to Koush and everyone else involved in Cyanogenmod project!
[ info ]
This Recovery is built from CWM 6.0.4.6 sources!
I dont have this device with me and I dont intend to buy one... a friend wanted root on his phone so I created this to help him out...
all the testing was done remotely on users devices...
@mods
I know that there is no device specific forum for this so I have posted thread here in Z2 general section... please move it to the device sub-forum once its created...
P.S: I know that some people think that its no big deal to have recovery/root on unlocked bootloader, and I do agree with that upto certain extent... but now that you have recovery/root you can do a LOT more... just unlocking bootloader wont give you anything!!! devs need to lay the foundations for further development... i have seen so many devices with unlockable bootloader and without root/recovery, but no one bothered to create recovery/root for those users...

Most probably dt image is not packed properly. Send me the kernel you made. I'll try to fix it up ASAP.
Cheers,
AJ3@DooMLoRD I almost finished making D2303 kernel with CWM but I need little help with packing.
Does dt.img has to be in GZ archiwe like CPIO RAMDISK?
Because this command (from your tools)
points that I should use dt.img, but kernel doesn't seem to work after I put everything together.Code:./mkbootimg --base 0x00000000 --kernel zImage --ramdisk_offset 0x02300000 --tags_offset 0x01E00000 --pagesize 2048 --cmdline "console=ttyHSL0,115200,n8 androidboot.console=ttyHSL0 androidboot.hardware=qcom user_debug=31 msm_rtb.filter=0x37" --ramdisk ramdisk.gz --dt dt.img -o boot.img
I'm getting this error at boot attempt:
Code:lozohcum@XubuntuHDD:~/eagle/msm8226_m2$ fastboot boot boot.img downloading 'boot.img'... OKAY [ 0.432s] booting... FAILED (remote: dtb not found) finished. total time: 0.575s lozohcum@XubuntuHDD:~/eagle/msm8226_m2$2Rooting Instructions

[ how to root ]
- once you have flashed the kernel from the 1st post
- download the latest SuperSU update.zip from: http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu
- save it on sdcard of device
- reboot into recovery
- flash the supersu update.zip
- reboot from recovery into OS
- you should now get proper root access!
[ installing busybox ]
- it is highly recommended to install busybox after rooting!
- just go to andorid play store and download the busybox installer.
- once the installer is downloaded, install busybox in /system/xbin
- reboot device after install and thats it!
regards,
DooMLoRD2
