LB and O2 ?

Anybody get this to work on a Locked Bootloader?

What about a locked bootloader and O2 locked phone?

I'm still having no luck after following the instructions.

If you install the ROM and LB Recovery and switch it on (only did this as a test) it will power up to the Sony logo (doesn't go further, though) and you can get back into Recovery. The phone goes dead after flashing the kernel/baseband.

install 534; root using kingo root; install dual recovery; boot to cwm; clear cache; restore factory; clear dalvik; install rom; restart press no; open sim tray; press red button till it vibrate; install kernal ftf using flashmode..

Xposed Activation

I have resolved the previous issue, but I have new one :D, it is about activating the Xposed Framework. It installs fine, but after reboot, it still says not activated... Does anybody have a solution?

I'm pretty sure this is as good as it gets right now. I don't think anyone with a locked BL will be able to get _full_ root right now, which is why xposed framework won't be able to install correctly.
I have the exact same problem, also Ad Away ad-blocker will have the same problem merging the hosts file in system.

You are right about LB, but I have UB, so... it is very okward to say the least.

This method not working on 4.3 ROM's with unlocked bootloader. The X-Reality still not active, and you change the system files to 4.2.2 versions, so if you restore your saved TA, must restore that files too to get back X-Reality, or you must restore your system from backup. Tested myself.
Could you able to make it work?
Can you explain more detail about how to get the x-reality work with unlocked BL if you can, thanks

If you unlocked your BL without saving TA partition before unlocking, you must say good bye for X-Reality forever! Your DRM keys lost forever, and you can use your own keys only, restoring from other phone = hardbrick your phone.
So, if you unlocking your BL first time, when you are on 4.3 rooted ROM, BEFORE unlocking make a backup with BackupTA (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2292598). Save it carefully because inside this backup you have your individual DRM keys, and if they're lost, lost forever!
After unlocking bootloader just repeat backup process (not overwriting original file....), now with unlocked BL informations inside the backup.
And now, if you wanna relock your bootloder, restore original, first backup, and if you need unlocked bootloader, restore second! So if you like xposed, install it in unlocked state, with desired modules, reboot phone, and restore Locked state backup of your TA partition! The magic is done: you have working Xposed, and working X-Reality! This method you can use for every application that needs RW access to your /system, because you can write it just in UL BL state...

it is save to unlock your bootloader from the official version 4.3~ but it is still better to have a backup TA

Open picture in Album, and you can see that the picture slightly enhances itself...Contrast and color saturation better after one second. But if your TA backup made with original, never unlocked bootloader, you can believe that after restoring your DRM keys are intact again.

I have made a backup on TA on 257 do I need to make another backup on 290 or is one backup sufficient.
The TA partition is ROM independent, so no, new backup is not necessary!
