Problems rooting my xperia ion! Acces denied... - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello fellow xda'ers !
I recently tried to unlock the bootloader for my XPERIA ION and I think I managed to do it. It rebooted in a "new" state so everything I had was gone. Not sure if that's what's supposed to happen?
Well, then I tried to root with the "bin4ryv18" runme.bat.
It goes fine until it keeps on running ,so something went wrong...
Also when using another program, it says it "failed on data/local/tmp permission denied".
I don't know how I should continue from here? I'm quite a noob when it comes to this.
Do I flash something first ?

Yes but insn't that an early version? I just flash the file with the command "flashboot...kernel.elf"? And after that i'll be able to root it?
If so, can i then update to a newer version?

Honestly I don't know, because I don't have an Xperia Ion. I don't want to say yes or no because if i'm wrong you phone could get bricked. But a similar question is asked in that thread and just wait for someone to answer it.

You can use an exploit to get root, but flashing kernels will need time.
Im rooted... But hey let's think logically. If Sony pc connect is installing/ upgrading roms... Shuld be some how easy to install custom Rom but ti keep the kernel... I will try something home. Im thinking that if you can repair the phone from that software that should mean that it has access to bl. No?
In that case you theoretic have to find the path wher is downloding the rom and to change the name of the custom Rom with the original Rom! Im wrong?

Everything PC Companion flashes is signed with an asymmetric, private key that is only available to Sony. The bootloader checks that signature using a public key. The private key also can't be computed from the public key, which is why it's called asymmetric.
Let it bee the biggest problem. I need to find the pat wher is downloding the files.
have to be somewhere a temp directory wher is makeing the download

[Q] Rooting a LG Optimus L7 v10j

I saw this topic (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895472) and I installed the v10j firmware on my LG p705. Sucess. But i can´t root it, just because I only can see de img extracted form .kdz file on the folder when it got´s locked and start to be used to flash... Is there a way to create a kdz file with this modified system.img.ext4 ? What can I do to be more lucky to root this phone?
Thanks!

The computer should just have LG drivers installed.Run the script and select the 2nd option-special. Don't forget the two lines when the phone boots the 2nd time.Read the thread thoroughly ,this tool works,it worked for me with same version 10j.
Use this modified one

Edit- it should have supersu try to use rootchecker or titanium back up find out

Hey,
I tried that old-school a lot of times and finally I could root it. When I saw "lg keyboard has stoped", I really knew that finally worked. The strange thing is that the system haven't came with a superuser app, so I installed "superuser".
Btw, thanks for helping. Around 0:30 (gmt -3) thr procedure got sucess, just few before your post. I thanked both your posts!

Looks like the devs are having trouble to unlock the bootloader, and thats why we dont have great roms like cyanogen for our phones. I hope that they can unlock it, not only for cm10, but overclocking tools too...

Seems like its complicated, at times we appear too close then again too far,does it mean the fellows at LG managed to lock their device in a manner that no one can find out ?

Maybe because of L7 isn´t a "best seller" cell phone, we have less developers to this cell phone... If Optimus was like a Galaxy SII, surely would have been unlocked...
I´m just waiting to the Jelly Bean update. I was a little lucky that my model isn´t from Brazil (brazillian model is p705f, with a very old actual firmware, like v10c), so I can put p700 or p705 newest firmwares, but i´ts a bit boring that we can´t go ahead in that phone customizing..

[Q] Impossible to root sony xperia P

Hi all,
I've tried every method in xda forum to root my xperia P lt22i without success.
It mounts ICS Build Number 6.1.1.B.1.54, locked bootloader, kernel 3.0.8+, usb debugging mode on, third part software allowed, back up and restore already installed.
When i try to flash the .559 kernel, flashtool returns me an error during flash, but I don't understand bacause i've installed all the drivers included in the package. When I click the root button it runs good till the end, but after the rebooting no sign of superuser app.
When I try to run the runme.bat of Binary's app (every version of it), it runs smoothly to the end and it returns to me that the phone has been rooted, but there's no trace of the superuser app after the rebooting.
Is it probable that I could have an unrootable phone?
Thanks in advance for your advices and answers,
Stevuna.

Currently, Sony's stock Android 4.0.3r5a cannot be rooted, nor can it be downgraded to an earlier, rootable version. "Reading" is your friend.

Xperia U about to be thrown at garbage

I'm sick of this junk phone!!!
It's locked and I have no idea who told those guys from the development section that it can be rooted even if bootloader is locked, couse i'll be damn if it worked for me.
I tryed every option shown and none worked.
Hell it dosen't even show me the restore option, every time I have to manualy go to settings and hit restore.
And in <<only one>> option I get the RootMe restore option, the one for those with open bootloader...
And I also get a lot of error in the command promt, and that shouldn't happen.
Dose anyone have any suggestions or anything? Couse I can't talk with those guys due to this new user thing... X(
I can't use it, can't sell it, I swear that for 200E that it cost me, i'll throw it away

The "soft" mod is no longer an option for many other devices not only smartphones. The method you guys have here is usless for phones that have the bootloader phisicaly locked by sony!!!
I'm looking for a way to bypass the sony lock, the hard way...
Where are those old fonefreekz when you need them...
And is very unpolite to call someone a noob only "cus u" think he knows no s***. I was cracking phones long before Android was publicaly released...

I found this after 2 minutes searching xda...
The guide is for Xperia U 6.1.1.B.1.10 , i don't know what firmware do you have.. so if its any newer than 6.1.1.B.1.10 than you should just flash ONLY the kernel for 6.1.1.B.1.10 , then follow this guide till the end, then after root is achieved.. flash back the original kernel for your version of firmware.
I always root this way, and i never had any problems , just before rooting set the display of your phone to NOT turn off for at least 5 minutes, not 30 seconds as it is at default.
I have some kernels if you need them
Xperia U 6.1.1.B.1.10
Xperia U 6.1.1.B.1.54
Xperia U 6.1.1.B.1.100
I have the 6.1.1.B.1.54 and my god haven't I tryed this option too. It was the very first method I found on xda back in 2012 and it failed. I will try it again however but I expect the same result as the first time...

all u need is a little patience. first flash stock 6.1.1.b.1.10.ftf that u can download from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2391151
in the android 4.0 section flash it using flashtool and repeat the same methods u tried earlier and report it.
It doesn't matter dump ur phone but being this way u'll never get to learn stuff............
Remember to calm down first, so your head will be clear. I was also exasperated when I was unable to root my phone with .54 kernel. I had a lot of difficulties because I am on ubuntu 13.10 and I had to first properly install the packages required by flashtool. After a gruelling 3 days of failures I decided to step back a while so I could calm down and relax. Finally I got my phone rooted after I redownloaded a .10 kernel.

When u hurry hurry hurry u will overlook a ton of things and miss a lot of essential steps even though you say "i have tried all methods and did them correct" a human is a human and obviously can make mistakes without even knowing them. and then u fail and get hatred but thats the part where u need to cool down. In this thread i have seen a lot of Correct answers for you i even used them and managed to root my Xperia U st25i with 1.54 firmware aswell the kernel is essential in it to so take some time and relax read the threads properly and even if something fails to download Search on XDA or google and u will have so much correct answers that u will be amazed of
if u are on .54 fw then u need to download .10 kernel and flash it via flashtool and then use bin4ry's method (restoring the RootMe file) and then reflash the .54 kernel
u will get the kernel in the op of the thread linked below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028139
and if u seriously want to get into rooting and tweaking your phone's system then the first thing you need is a calm mind or else you will end up bricking your device
