read through the first page. i guess it use diff terms compare to samsung. could anyone guide me?
for example how to backup TA? what is TA? what is the proper/safe guide to root?
backup TA is for those who wanted to unlock bootloader to meddle with custom firmware/kernel-level tweaking.
TA partition needs to be backed up as it contains the key for Sony-priviledged features such as X-Reality, OTA update etc. since all those features will be limited upon unlocking bootloader.
For rooting, not rly necessary to unlock bootloader. the provided steps are safe enough, for now.
yes, Samsung devices are very different in many ways (even the hard key to capture screenshot) but the terms used are basically just "advanced" but it's easier to use Sony devices and fell in love with it.
