[Q] Reboot fix not working for Xperia M dual C2004 build 15.2.A.2.5

Sri007 · Feb 13, 2014

I want to swap internal-external sdcard or mount folder app so that I can play big games with large data. For this, I rooted my phone with Impactor, and tried remount reboot fix by NUT and reboot fix by Anto Kus. But till now the phone reboots on using folder mount. Also my phone reboots while using a dual partitioned sdcard to use it with Link2sd. I have tested root checker which shows phone is rooted. I am using Titanium Backup without any problems. Should I go for bootloader unlock?
My phone xperia m dual c2004, 4.2.2, build 15.2.A.2.5.

Thanks

I had already installed busybox and followed the procedure shown in the thread. The busybox is supported but inspite of root access, I can't change permissions in system files as a result the reboot fix is not working. Somewhere I read unlocking bootloader will help. Is it?

yes u must unlock bootloader for use full root access like change permission etc

No, you don't need to unlock your bootloader to get full root access. Try this updated version of the reboot fix and then you're fully rooted...

Unlocking your bootloader will give you full root access without using root tools, exploits, etc., but many proprietary Sony apps will not work anymore because your DRM keys will be wiped when you unlock the bootloader...

I have already backed up bootloader using TA backup and got bootloader key from Sony website. But can I claim warranty, if I restore locked bootloader? Or warranty is void, not reversible.

Ya, I know about the cons of unlocking bootloader. Thats why I am still waiting for other ways. I have also tried the fix by NUT from the forum which u gave link but still not fully rooted as it is unable to write in system folder. But other root operations like removing bloatware is done without any problems. Thats strange. Busybox is installed by NUT which supports part of the fix but the other scripts did not work in system.
By the your xm dual c2004 was updated to build 15.2.A.2.5 or is it from out of box like mine?

What script is basically not working

The scripts in the fix tool like killswitch.sh, etc. which needs to run to avoid reboot while mounting.

Is your phone same model and build like mine? I think it is due to the build version.

yes its same build 15.2.A.2.5

If not working then you may update it via sony update service and reset phone

then follow guide again to root

According to guide use the same busybox as mentioned open and install it

or try from beggining again

Here are steps
use injector
install super su from google play
open and use super su
and install it binaries
install busy box x as mentioned
then open it and install allow root access if asked
then use reboot fix by NUT
follow cmd guide
and allow adb when ask permission
then phone will reboot

Then its written wait to check fix
And then its done press continue
done
use folder mount have fun
then

My C2004 also have full root access with locked bootloader, just updated to 15.2.A.2.5 through Sony Update Service, used Cydia Impactor, installed SuperSU from Play Store and then ran the script I linked to you. After all I have full root access, can remount system without problems and my bootloader still locked...

I have again followed the procedure as you mentioned. Everything worked except the fix. While waiting to check the fix, the phone reboots again. I am attaching the snapshots of the terminal window from which you may know the problem.

Ya, I know I have seen in a tutorial video on youtube. So, what's the solution you think? Which version of Busybox are you using?
