Step by Step Rooting your Z Ultra - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

I won't be responsible for getting any damages to your phone.
You'll have to connect to a proxy server due to the application requires a Chinese IP
Step 1 : Download and install 360 One-Root - http://down.360safe.com/360Root/360RootSetup.exe
Step 2 : Go into Control Panel, Internet Options, Connections, Lan Settings.Type in 61.144.217.182 in the Address box , then 81 in the port box,at last,tick both of the boxes under proxy server and press ok.
Step 3 : Launch 360 One-Root , Press the green button (一鍵ROOT)
Step 4 : Wait and Enjoy a cup of tea. If the root process fail the first time, DON'T PANIC and repeat Step 3 to 4 Again.
Step 5 : Reboot!!!!! Or you won't be able to update su binary
P.S. Enable USB Debugging
If you have a Security lock , please remove it before trying to root.
Feel free to repost this and Sorry for my Bad English.

Good job
Very nice:good:

No need to unlock boot loader for this method? and we lost Bravia Engine?

It's all Chinese.

Just making sure that this root does not touch the bootloader - the bravia/xreality stuff is unaffected, right?

Everything is working smooth as butter
After process is complete, restart your phone.
After installation is completed (and phone is restarted) "Root 360" providing own "SuperSU" app (but in Chinese), if you want you can install Chainfire SuperSU from the play store. (I did that to update binary. (binary update was completely success).
(If you installed Chainfire SuperSU app, you can delete from system/app Chinese version of supersu)
People reported that bravia engine working.
(I didn't noticed any difference)

Hi Dear,

Why does it need to connect to a Chinese server is my question...
Not that I don't trust the OP, but if the process works there, I see no reason why it wouldn't here...

It's downloading some files. (Latest binarys maybe etc)

No English
I can't get the initial tool in English despite changing proxy.

That's what I thought... nevertheless we should be able to get those files without a proxy in a couple of days...
Anybody has a more detailed explanation on what or does on the ZU?

Because it grabs your IMEI and other sensitive info, and sells it on the black market. Oh.My.God.
Yes, i'm kidding. I hope

My phone didn't have phone security code. Anyway I success already using below tools.
mgyun vroot - SUCCESS! This one no need any proxy set.
The vroot actually is using 360 one also, as it install 360 inside.
Vroot site - http://www.mgyun.com/vroot
Root required apps running fine.
Boot Loader is still locked.
Bravia Engine still working.
Bravia Off - view using QuickPic | Bravia On - view using Album
Restart, shutdown few times - confirm Root still working.

This should work with OTA rootkeeper so we can get future firmware updates right?

I think no need keep, got user have 1.493 firmware LTE phone also root success. (mention at gfan china forum).

Thanks guys. Nice one.
It was so easy yet scary... ALL IN CHINESE, so choosing and clicking buttons to install was a blind hit and miss
Anyway, if you keep on failing after multiple attempts, not only should you check that the USB debugging mode in on, and also lock screen is disabled,
YOU SHOULD ALSO DISABLE McAFEE anti-virus app as well

I'm afraid of that hit and miss.

When root is successful, the superuser language is China?
May b, u need to install Superuser or SuperSu,then update binary, install to system in setting.China icon n binary will delete.So u can use English language permission request. But I don't believe China Tools.I extracted with 7zip Eroot.exe n Vroot.exe n Find with Olly.They use many scripts without owner's permission (Doomlord,Bin4ry,Farma Root etc...).They just modified that.

Yes it does
Edit: I can't update SU binary with Supersu. :/
It not works with the 2.254 firmware and it gives you phone restarts when try to do any root thing for example delete a system file.
SuperSu does not work either. I can update the binary but gives you unlimited phone restarts right after boot. So bootloop.
I deleted it in safe mode.
Waiting for the new version. :\
I have now installed supersu and updated binairy.
also i have tried superuser from chainsdd ant had no bootloop anymore but lost root when removing the chinese version.
how do i delete the chinese superuser app without losing root?
EDIT:
Somehow i managed to root my phone while the chinese superuser was removed and it didn't come back after root using Vroot
so now i am using supersu and it's working perfect.
EDIT:
Phone force reboot when removing system app or changing /system to r/w.

Help Please!! Having Some Problems(Gapps aren't work) on My Z Ultra

Hello bros,
I bought Xperia Z ULTRA (C6802) from China last month. I am using in Turkey now but there are some problems. The first time i opened the phone, the google apps(play store,chrome, google+,gmail etc.) are not included in it. I downloaded google play store apk and set up it. When I open it, the app immediately stop working like what happens in this video:
How can I fix this problem ? What should I do? Any suggestions?
Also, the games(Asphtalt 8 etc.) from Gameloft give error ".... has stopped working" For this, I also need help.

Make a backup of your data and repair your firmware with PC Companion(plug your phone on your PC and make like if you want to update, it'll say that your phone is already up to date (if you did the update) and if you look a bit down on this Window you'll see you can repair the phone).
Don't know what they did with your phone before send it to you, but normally Plastered and some gasps apps should be on the phone already.

The only chinese Android devices i've seen that doesn't come with gapps, are fake devices. I doubt that's the case here, but it's incredible weird that a Sony phone doesn't come with gapps.

It would be cool if you could take a screenshot of the "About" screen (in settings). What should work though is to root and manually move the Play Store apk to /system/app.

Here I made very simple guide to Root your Note 3, if am right this will work almost all the Note 3... 100% safe method..
Rooting Steps
1. Preferred adb tool on the computer, and have installed adb drivers..
You can install the driver thru the tool..There is option called USB in the tool click there and select option called Driver Scan this will find your phone driver, please enable the USB debugging on your phone before scanning.. USB Driver Scan feature to attempt to automatically construct and install a driver for your device. You do not need the Android SDK. IF not install the driver manual..
2 Please download the attached tool.. Once the Download is done please extract the same and kept it ready.... Mac and Linux user post over the thread I will update that too...
Windows Tool link ( http://bit.ly/1l58VcH )
3 on your phone Settings - Developer option - Enable the USB debugging
4 on your phone Settings - Security - Allow unknown source file install
5 Connect your phone to Computer, using usb cable.. (Wait for 30 seconds)
6 Open the extracted folder and double click the Impactor file..
7 Now click on Start this will start the process.. it will root your phone in 30seconds..
8 Reboot your phone, install the Root checker apk from google play store.. Verity the root access.

I have the exact same problem. I can access the main xda site, but not the forum. Can't access the forum through the xda app or tapatalk either. If I put data saver mode on in chrome, then it works through chrome at least. If I make my phone into a hotspot, other devices that connect to it also can't access xda forums. Tried this with 2g, 3g and wifi, none work. Everything is normal on my laptop and tablet using the same wifi.
Only thing I can think of is that I flashed the modem of kitkat because I have thr d6502, which model is your phone?
Oh wow so you're encountering the problem too. I'm using D6633.
I thought it was fixed, but after reboot, same issue. It seems as if quickly at boot if I try to access the forum, it works. If I wait for a few minutes, it doesn't work. Very weird.

Hey guys after I installed stock lollipop I can't access few pages like forum.xda-developers.com and gsmarena.com.
It shows that something to do with my dns serve.
If anyone came across or knows what's up please collaborate with this matter.

I have this issue too with my Z3 Compact / 5.02
Only solution is to insert the IP to /system/etc/hosts ("207.244.72.9 forum.xda-developers.com").
Because I tried several DNS Server without success. This is strange.
This problem also happened to me (Xperia Z3)!
I have fixed the problem only flashing .FTF again (full data wipe)
factory reset via recovery not solved!
Edit:
the problem appears after that I restore my DRM keys using this method [EXRxYKG]DRM FUNCTION RESTORATION FOR UB DEVICE
If you unlocked the bootloader there is an app that prevents you from posting screenshots or even installing benchmark applications. If you have functional root try to delete PrototypeProtection. The app has a list of apps and sites that are banned, for example this forum, GSM arena and Antutu

It seems the issue is also on the Z3, my device had this problem.
I uninstalled PrototypeProtection with titanium backup and all works!
Just asking what exactly does Prototype Protection do, does it just block access to the apps and websites, does it do anything else?
Also, is it an app installed by the DRM Restore zip? If so, why did they bundle it?

Prototype Protection comes in all Sony phones, the DRM restore zip doesn't install it and it just blocks apps and websites.

I don't know, something is making the prototype protection kick in. It is a system app, the DRM restore zip doesn't include anything more.

Ok. Then any ideas why it is bundled with Sony devices

Judging by the name of the app and the comments in this thread, i'm guessing it's there to stop users going to a prototype / display phone for example, rooting it and upload stuff from the phone.
I would like a technical explanation too, maybe someone can decompile that apk and analyze what it does exactly?
