Xperia V - Stock Kernel Unsecure+Debuggable 9.0.D.0.484

[championswimmer]

Hi,

Just got my Xperia V (LT25i) yesterday.

Here is Stock Kernel from firmware 9.0.D.0.484
It has set ro.secure=0 and ro.debuggable=1
Nothing else is touched.

Download Link

How to use this ??
Just unlock your bootloader from http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com and flash the kernel using

fastboot flash boot lt25i-unsecure-debuggable.elf

Instructions : -

for windows Users, just install latest flashtool and go to x10_flasher_lib folder, shift+rightclick and open command window here and enter the above code ^^
Linux users will need SDK installed with sdk in path and android-rules set in udev.

Thanks to Bin4ry and Androxyde for the awesome Flashtool that helps converting blob_fs files to sin
Thanks to my kernel kitchen that allows fast editing of ramdisk in elf

I have a LT25i that is International LTE version, with firmware 9.0.D.0.484.
This kernel is not tested on anything else.

Excellent, I will link to the all in one thread for the moment, but do you expect another forum for the V? I think there ahould be with such a differnece in firmware, but while you are here I will make you feel welcome.

Any chance of uploading the ftf? Let me know, I will stick it in the allin one thread as well.

svetius said new forum will be made soon when there are enough Xperia V threads to make this place cluttered and disorganised

FTF is uploading. bloody hell of a slow internet here.

Cheers, what do you reckon the chance of the ftf working on the T?

I can flash it but dont know much about this new firmware, is it close enough to be compatable? Saves me googling whilst I am cooking tea for my wife and 3 kids...

Since it is stock kernel, can I flash it with flashmode instead of fastboot on my locked bootloader?

You can use either flashtool or fastboot to flash kernels, flashtool uses fastboot

However, alhough these are stock based kernels, they are custom kernels and therefore not signed by Sony, therefore only unlocked botloaders will be able to flash them

IC, good explanation! :good:
1) If I want to save the stock kernel.sin from my ftf, do I just extract it with winrar?
2) What is .elf?
3) If I flash a stock kernel on unlocked bootloader, will it be problems?

Ps. I am coming from ARC and get my phone tomorrow:laugh:

1: yep. also to flash a sin kernel you need the loader.sin with it
2: .elf is the equivalent of boot.img on ARC it is packed in a different method but the way to use it is same
3: yes. no problem at all

Thank you again, last question :angel:

Where do I put the loader.sin and kernel.sin?
How do I flash it? (locked bootloader)

You cant flash it. You are on a locked bootloader.
But it is the exact same kernel you have except its rooted. You will probably be able to root using bin4ry's method, then you wont need a rooted custom kernel.

 

[datagubben]

I know now, just strip down a ftf file, keep kernel and loader.sin and use it later with flashtool when new firmware comes that cant be rooted with bin4ry.

This should work on locked bootloader.

If you want the stock kennel then you can download the stock kernel from the all in one thread. I have posted the 303 and 195 stock kernels there

Sent from my LT30p xda premium app.
How do I customise the signature on xda premium app?

Its not for Xperia V.

 

[gregbradley]

Its not for Xperia V.

Of course, my mistake.

 

[datagubben]

Good :good: Xperia V got its own development thread, but we need Xperia V General also! :crying:

This is not a discussion thread for the V its only for this development and I answered your PM about that. Please stay on topic.

Thanks

sorry for my ignorance, but what is an insecure kernel and for what serve?

insecure kernel is possible to root
