You can´t root it without downgrading to Gingerbread first, unless you unlock your bootloader and go that way.

lilflix7, first of all to understand what is rooting you need to understand the basics of a Linux system, as Android is nothing but a system using the Linux kernel. "root" is like a default administrator account in Linux , which gives you hardware level access. For example giving hardware level access to applications which manage CPU Scaling for battery efficiency. By default the vendors lock out the "root" access just to protect their warranty incase you do something harmful (i.e. deleting important system files") or a malware granting itself administrative privilege to mess with your phone. But some of us have found ways to enable it incase we want better control of our phones for more customization (i.e freeing up some space by deleting unnecessary system applications) and hacking. The methods vary depending upon the make and the models and most importantly the Android Version .. As it sometimes varies between gingerbread and ICS .. With ST15i with ICS please don't consider rooting the phone directly using the scripts, you might end up with a brick.. Downgrade to a Gingerbread Kernel after which you may have a soft brick due to the kernel mismatch, but then you can run the DooMLoRD rooting tool with busybox....After this process switch back to the stock kernel and you are rooted xD .. Please note Firmware 4.0.2.A.0.62 and 4.0.2.A.0.69 are difficult to root on a locked boootloader. So to root gingerbread you need to flash either 4.0.2.A.0.42 or 4.0.2.A.0.58 and then Root.. This might sound hebrew to you as you are new to this phone, so i suggest you to read through the forums before you decide your call. As "rooting" your phone will void your warranty AND MOST IMPORTANTLY BRICK YOUR PHONE if you do something wrong.. Here is a detailed guide on how to root ST15i (talk.sonymobile.com/thread/41119?start=0&tstart=0).. I have tried it on my week old ST15i and its rooted flawlessly now xD.. All the very best..

Dear XDA member....!!
I new to this forum and I am a average android user.
I am using Xperia U and got to know the benefits of rooting the phone from the XDA.
i am gonna root my phone for the first time in life. I will root my droid with flashtool-0.9.9.0.
But I have some questions in my mind, which are as follows:-
1) Rooting with flashtool-0.9.9.0 will void my warranty?, if yes, than how can i get it back.
2) If in case i want to unroot the phone than how can i do the same without damaging.
I just asked this questions before rooting my device, as i dont want my device to be damaged. I am very happy to see the way all members help each other. Even the new members, like me, got full support / help which is really amazing.
Thanks in advance..!

Hello.
I have xperia sola as written in the title.
But there's a problems rooting it. I have already tried Bin4ry method and it failed.
I want to stay with the stock rom, just to root it.
Btw, Bootloader is open. (will be closing it after root, I have an hardware problem- creating a hotspot)
How do I root it the easiest way ?
Thanks!
edit: the phone says 6.1.B.54, but when connecting it to my pc it says .10 , so I guess its the correct one.
