Yeah, I tried flashing my Z1 with TWRP directly from the phone with the Rashr app, and it still doesn't work.

That's my last ditch method, after reading up on xda threads and various blogs, I tried to flash while connected to a computer, but not only are the steps slightly more complicated, it all doesn't really work too.

Meanwhile all that my samshit devices need are Odin and everything's just take care of.
>>
>>51962456
On sony devices you need a custom kernel to have a recovery. Each kernel comes together with the recovery. Try installing a kernel first.

>>51962336

Memory consumption functions normally.I never had problems with it.

Also I had no problems with lag, gagging or anything like that. Battery consumption remains excellent.

Even IF that would be possible then such information can't be used in any way where I live, kid. It doesn't have any value. I don't know how this works in murika but I don't really care.

No it doesn't, especially when it's custom made by the car producer and can't be easily replaced. Any more questions?
>Dumbfuck.
Kek, nice argument m8.
As long as I keep it to myself it's private. If I upload it to the internet it's not private anymore.
