Sony Xperia XA1 Plus / XA1 Plus Dual - Official firmware
G3412
Description пїЅ | Discussion пїЅ | Accessories пїЅ | Official firmware

Important information!

I warn everyone:
If you downloaded the firmware from your location to your phone, or you collect the firmware yourself, see the list of sections carefully! If you see the file "simlock.ta" - do not try to flash it, get a tablet with Internet access via Wi-Fi, and not a phone! You will not have a connection, you can block everything !!! If you are collecting the firmware - delete it in advance, or simply do not include it in the list of collected files!
Also, do not transfer Flash to the advanced mode "Pro" - in this mode, the section "simlock.ta" - if it is in the firmware and you have overlooked it - WILL BE BROUGHT. In normal mode, the latest versions of Flash have protection and do not flash "simlock.ta", but still be careful and watch what you sew!

• Unlocking the bootloader leads to the loss of DRM-keys, which leads to a loss of warranty (but !!! specifically, I repaired my device 3 times under warranty after unlock - blocked the loader and changed the motherboard by warranty!), Inability to be updated over the air, use of. Sony, the deterioration of the quality of image processing from the camera. Loss of DRM keys is irreversible !!!
  
• There is no native recovery on our phone!
  
• If the bootloader is unlocked - updates over the air do not arrive !!! Flash only with flash!
  
• To avoid errors, the Android version must be changed with all the wipes!
  
• Route for Android 8 on firmware 48.1.A.2.21 is obtained only with the help ofcustom kernel with "Magisk".
  
• Important! Protection from Gogle theft and account deletion. Before you reset your phone, reflash it, restore the phone software using "Xperia Companion" - it is better to delete the Google account from the phone in "Settings - Users and accounts".

Reason for editing: Kernel with Magisk 18.1 for firmware 48.0.A.1.131 (G3412, Android 7).

I did not fly. I, incidentally, am not in a hurry to update yet.

[bk-78]

A new firmware 48.0.A.1.117 for the CIS (RU / UA / KZ / BY) appeared in the flash drive in the Xperifirm program. Download it.

And the meaning is to download the firmware and sew it with a flash drive? Except, of course, problems with updating over the air ... And as if there is no custom yet ...

[bk-78]

jacadoyou never know what situations you have to sew.

[jacado]

bk-78,is it possible to completebackup, with custom recovery on our device,? Did not try by chance? It worries me more than new factory firmware. )))

[bk-78]

jacadodid not try. I do not need these backups.

Is a full-fledged backup possible, with custom recovery on our device,?

Not. The data section in TWRP is not mounted. And accordingly it is not backed up.
Rather mounted after"Format data" but it is the same that is not.

Sadly ... Then I don’t see much sense to root the device ... Superfluous (unnecessary) applications are easier to simply freeze ..

Magisk v15 update released
ATinstructionsdescribed the installation of v14
after the update, the phone requested a password (its set) when turned on, accepted the password, but issued that the data is damaged and you need a hard reset. I rolled back the boot partition with the patched v14 kernel back through TWRP.

At the weekend / NG holidays I will update, test and accomplish my goal. In the subject Magisk many complaints v15
* Yes, and at the same time I will update at 117, otherwise it is still 99 firmware.

Update Ruth rights MagiskSu c v14.0 ->v15.0 on stock firmware SONY XA1 Plus Android 7.0

In general, breaking a pair of tambourines, all this is due to the default encryption.
To upgrade without a hard reset* Well, it's lazy for me to restore all the data from scratch, although everything in TitaniumBackup is still there.

Anais10 @ 09/27/16, 00:35

2) Restore the stock kernel (by reinstalling the kernel itself or reinstalling the entire firmware completely - your choice). Ask questions about this in the theme of the firmware of your device.

You can upgrade without losing data:
1) DownloadMagiskManager-v5.5.1 off site
Or here: (directly from the Manager apk can not be downloaded!)
MagiskManager-v5.5.1.apk(2.35 MB)

2) Remove the Installed MagiskManager (v5.4.0 / v5.4.3) from the phone, set MagiskManager-v5.5.1.apk
The default jackdaw will be set."keep encryption"

Then by direct installation update Magisk v15

.zip archive* just
Magisk-v15.0.zip(5.81 MB)


Then Magisk will update normally, saving all settings (hiding banking applications, installed modules, such as non-system Xposed)

We should not forget that the direct installation of the Magzka .zip archive onto a clean drain core via TWRP will not arise due to the proprietary format of the Sony ELF core!

You must first putMagisk-v12.0-sonyfix.zipwith fix for Sony ELF (post # 3) and then update.

There are two ways:
a) Stay on Magisk v14
b) Do not install it initially and forget about the root.

Have a saved BackUp at least Boot partition via TWRP! (Mount ->Jackdaw on System ->back ->BackUp ->mark boot ->Swipe to the right) as well as the unchanged kernel boot.img (post # 3) will not interfere
For the possibility of a rollback, so as not to reflash clean. In case of unsuccessful installation, we will get a hang on the Xperia logo

All actions at your own risk! Information for reference only!

Hello. I can not unlock the bootloader via flashtool.

28/046/2017 11:46:04 - INFO - Device connected in fastboot mode
28/046/2017 11:46:09 - INFO - Unlocking phone using key AA3CCE50F3264AC9
28/046/2017 11:46:09 - INFO - ...
28/046/2017 11:46:09 - INFO - FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
28/046/2017 11:46:09 - INFO - finished. total time: 0.001s

The code rechecked, firewood reinstalled. Flashtool was the old version, updated - did not help.
Can someone else somehow try to unlock?

[aifinef]

Jourdi,
Greetings. XA1 Plus?
I opened normally, when there was still no our device in the flashlight.

[email protected], 14:57

1) Get the unlock code on developer.sonymobile.com
Our model is not there yet - choose XA1
2) Unlock the bootloader in the USB flash drive

Now you can add a device by downloading the file here.here.

[Jourdi]

aifinefYes, xa1 plus, also dual.
I also downloaded files, added, does not help.
In short, the flash unit is the last one, the firewood also reinstalled (in the folder of the USB flash drive which are located).
I start the flash unit, press the Blu button, the flash unit asks to connect the switched off bodies in the flash mode to determine, then connect to the fastboot ... and an error.
P.S. I took the phone yesterday, the firmware from the box was .66, updated to .99. Until I set it up, I know that after unlocking, the settings will be reset.

[aifinef]

Jourdi,
I opened the flashlight 99 normally.
And through ADB did not try to open?

I can not unlock the bootloader via flashtool.

This is MTC!
It is necessary in the settings for developers in the phone to allow unlocking the bootloader!
