Interesting, hadn't seen that yet. Lengthy process but good for those that have locked bootloaders.

Use flashtool

First, you need to unlock your bootloader (if your bootloader could be unlocked). Refer to this link to check if you can and for instructions on how to unlock it.
Then root your phone with these instructions, read from "Rooting instructions".
Hope that helps.

The op has LOCKED BOOTLOADER, so before rooting he has to flash stock GB in order to use de xploit mentioned

hi
tank you for it
i have question about my device; ihave sony xperia sl and my question is :
can i root my device.please help me to rooting my device.

Unlock the bootloader and root like classic (install the Koush SuperUser app and get the .zip file from it, then flash it via recovery).
You could use [email protected]'s 'Root MANY android' tool if you dont want to unlock the bootloader.
Serious noob question...

Taking a Risk

Guys i have a question to ask.First thing is my bootloader unlocking allowed is to No.But there is another guy on this forum who had the same status but he says he managed to unlock it.Now i want to try my luck cuz i want to taste Jellybean & i cant afford to buy an new phone.So the question is if i try to unlock my bootloader it wouldnt brick my device in any way even it is unlockable?
And why do you need to unlock bootloader to install jelly bean?
I have an Xperia Sola.

It could get bricked mate. It's not a good idea i think.
Why don't you install just a custom rom based on ics?

OK thanks mate.I am currently using a custom rom based. I think with announcement the of kit kat ICS will become the GB now(no updates & losing app support).But I have a question to ask from you as you are a much respected member of the forum I think a long time ago when Galaxy S4 was released some carrier released it with locked boot loader but people were able to find a software to still flash kernel on S4 won't that work on Xperia devices ?

Thanks for your kind words mate.
Have no idea if it can be used on xperia devices too. I think trying installing a mod from another device it's more risky than trying to unlock your device.
Also, i wouldn't recommend you install JB on a 512mb device. You always will have some lags even if the rom is optimized. So my suggestion is to keep using ics custom rom.
Don't be afraid of the 4.4 kitkat. Don't think that ics will not receive some apps from Googleplay and i am telling you that because didn't happen even if 4.3 is already out.

Great. I WISH I didn't update to 257. Now I've lost root. I've got a locked bootloader and refuse to unlock it.
Now those having a locked bootloader are not able to root at this time.
