Describe your problem.

Hello,
is there a special instruction for sony xperia 10 phones?

I used instruction from here: https://kernelsu.gitlab.io/blog/kernelsu-installation/
I try to install it, but ultimately no root at the end:

  • sony xperia 10 bootloader unlocked, non rooted stock sony firmware.
  • downloaded correct version of firmware for my phone (android 16 022026) with xperia firmaware downloader
  • patched vendor_boot (there is no init_boot in sony firmware) using wildSU app on phone and copied to PC: vendor_boot_kernelsu_next_patched_20260223_124300.img
    adb and fastboot installed, working well with phone on PC Proceed mode - patching img file on phone rather then PC.

then:
fastboot flash vendor_boot kernelsu_next_patched_20260223_124300.img
Sending 'vendor_boot' (98304 KB) OKAY [ 2.788s]
Writing 'vendor_boot' OKAY [ 0.430s]
Finished. Total time: 3.242s

reboot phone.
WildSU do not detect root. 🧐

checked this thread: KernelSU-Next/KernelSU-Next#608 and did not understood solution.

If anyone have line-by-line commands instruction...
