well i hate to tell you but you are stuck, unless you try to update to release 6b. There is not root method for 6a or 6b at this time. the update to 6b may fix your issues

Hi,
I'm currently running 4.0.A.2.335 on my Mini Pro,
I've been getting the message to update to .58 for a couple months now, but was waiting to update because I wasn't sure if I was still going to be able to root.
So simple question: update before root or after?
Grtz!
Its not important, important not to use internal wi-fi updater when bootloader unlocked. in any case you must get root after every update, because all data will be removed

You cant update your phone to .58 if your phone currently rooted. You need to unroot first then update then reroot back.
So the answer is update first, then root

That's safe.
For my own information: do you have an AZERTY SK17i, and if so, would you please do me a favour and post your /system/build.prop (after rooting of course, can't access it otherwise) here or in my thread?
I'm looking for the 'generic Belgium' CDA code Currently running a french one but it came with some very irrelevant apps and I have another issue with it.

Nothing has been changed yet (phone is not rooted and hasn't been flashed yet). Stock can also mean, 'running SE firmware' as opposed to a custom ROM, regardless how the SE firmware was installed.

Ok, i finally rooted my chinese sgpt111cn that was on stock ics.
Now i still can't get google accounts even after changing region to Us.
Did someone try to downgrade from chinese stock rooted ics to US honeycomb?
Do you think it's risky?
I can't wait for my chinese tablet to finally become fully usable!!!
Thanks for your advices...

yes of course, no luck
seems the chinese version of the market HiMarket is not replaced and I don't find a trace of the moded market after reboot, even though Aio says everthing went well...
I also tried copying it myself with root ES explorer, but even that doesn't work. It seems the chinese version lacks the google service framework as well, so I copied and installed it... no luck.
There are so many difference between the chinese and US ICS, I think the only way is to flash a new fm...
or wait until 4.0.4 so that I don't risk a downgrade, unless someone already found a solution to change a rooted chinese stock ICS to a US one ?

You will need root but...
Region changer should work. Change to US then reinstall US zip...

yes that's what I'm doing, I changed the region and got the zip (signed-nbx03_001-ota-120803002)
now it's stuck because I need to change vendor prop and decrease the build # I guess.
I'll try that and let you know how this works, what could go wrong anyway ?
worst case I'll end up with US ICS unrooted and will root again with the new method that worked on my chinese 4.0.3 r1a
I'm using Aio 4.0 btw, and disable hack_recovery download from sites.google because the shell could not connect, I don't know why...
I was able to download it through browser and put it locally myself anyway. all the rest if ok until the bad sku #, so vendor prop change should do the trick !
can someone tell me exactly what values to change to be able to downgrade in the prop files (vendor/build) ?
if I mess up those files, do I risk brick my tablet ?

Vendor.prop change incremental to 111104048. default aio incremental, I think. This cant brick tab But the region.zip can, tread with caution. After that AIO should a work with region changer.
Finally a root method that works!

Definitely you can, but I am unsure about re-blocking your bootloader.

Hi all,
I have Sony Xperia Z Tablet which I want to gain root access for.
Device details:
Model number: SGP311
16GB
Android 4.3
Build Number: 10.4.B.0.577
Not sure if relevant, but the tablet was bought in USA.
I'm pretty much a newbe here, so I would like, if possible, to get a link for a simple tutorial how to root my device.
10'x!
If only there was a search button...

Hi Felimenta97,
Thanks for your reply.
I have seen the post you've linked here before I've posted my question (I definitely know how to use the search option ) but its seemed somewhat complicated/Indirect way compare to the simple ways of rooting I'm used to from my 2 other devices (SGS3, Nexus 4)
Is there any simpler/straightforward way?
Thanks in advance!

Nope. There is no current exploit in 4.3 Sony firmware. So, you either unlock your bootloader, or do that process.
Wait till 4.4!
If I was you, I'd wait till KitKat upgrade comes out! after that I'd root my tablet

I tried with VROOT, but seems like there's no update yet. Was researching about 4.3 root methods, there a few, most of them you have to go back to 4.2 and then upgrade, but a direct root, no, I haven't found one yet :good:
Is there any simple way to root this device?
