how i can root the new firmware 6.1.1.B.1.54 for the xperia u ??
First, you need to flash the B.1.10 kernel available here and then, root it using Bin4ry's Tool After that, flash back B.1.54 kernel and you are done
and how i do it? can you write an instruction
i know, my english is bad ^^
Do you know how to use Flashtool ? What you need to do is either get the kernel file or the entire Stock FTF from here, then flash it with Flashtool
After selecting Flashtool, deselect all the options on top right relating to Wipe and select all options on bottom right pertaining to Exclude, except for Exclude Kernel (we dont tick Exclude Kernel). Then click Flash and connect your device and you succesfully flashed just the kernel of that FTF
Step-by-step please!
i dont get it
please can you make a step by step instruction for me please
i know my english is bad ^^
Take a look at this video It shows how to flash an ftf with Flashtool

Hey bro,
Sorry for late reply When you flash stock ftf, you'll lose root What you need to do is flash back just the Kernel of B.10 [In Flashtool deselect all the Wipe Commands and select all the Exclude Commands except the Kernel) and then you can root with Bin4ry tool or Flashtool. Then after that, flash back the kernel of B.54 or whichever firmware you wanted by the same way I just described
Hope it helps
Cheers

Hi there,
I'm new to this world, i've an z ultra with 14.1.B.1.510 with locked bootloader, i've no notification for new update...
I don't need to flash costum roms, just the stock kitkat one, but i'd love rooting to use titanium backup and a few more programs.
It's the better to root with my actual rom or should i update first and then root~?
It's mandatory that i unlock the bootloader?
What's the best/simple way to root this device?
Thks
You don't have to unlock your bootloader to update to stock 4.4.4, you either download official PC Companion software and it will tell you that there is an update for your phone, or download Flashtool install the drivers included in Drivers folder and download a 14.4.A.0.108.ftf flash it through Flashtool and you are done

Thks.
And about rooting? What's the simple method?
if you root before updating, you will lose root, you should update and then root your device, use Towelroot, it works flawlessly on the aforementioned ROM "14.4.A.0.108" I used it my self; Good luck

Hi guys,
I recently bought a Xperia Z2 Tablet SGP512, and for some reason I find the touchscreen quite unresponsive if connected with USB to the computer.
Anyway I've updated to the latest Stock firmware (Android 5.1.1, build 23.4.A.1.200) and now I'd like to try another ROM.
Since I haven't unlocked my bootloader yet, I want to make a backup of the TA partition. But in order to do that, I need to root the device. And I haven't found a simple way to root it. I can't find how to keep my TA partition safe; do you guys know if the following will erase my TA partition:
If I downgrade the firmware?
If I flash a pre-rooted firmware?
Is using flashtool the good way to go (flashing a ftf file)?
Thank you for your help.
Hello guys. I have a problem with my Z2. Recently and unfortunately i have updated to 6.0.1 and now i want root access on my phone to install viper4android but i couldn't find any solution. I will give all the information and you can suggest me what to do.
Phone: Sony Xperia Z2
Model: D6503
Build Number: 23.5.A.0.575
Kernel: 3.4.0-perf-g43a728
Bootloader: Not unlocked but in service menu shows it can be unlockable (however official sony site doesn't show my phone to get the code)
What should I do in this case?
If I need to downgrade, I am okay with 5.1.1 but I don't know how to downgrade with locked bootloader.
If this is the case how do i downgrade?
Is there anyway to unlock bootloader at the moment for sony devices?
Is there any root method for 6.0.1 or will be soon for Z2?
Anything could work please help..
PS: English is not my native sorry for mistakes. Thank you all.
Another topic with this question.
So, for downgrade, you don't need unlocked bootloader, just use Flashtool program, install drivers for device and Flashmod and flash FTF for your device model.
For now, no way to root Android 6 with locked bootloader.
You can always unlock the bootloader, once in service menu is positive status (Yes).
If you want to unlock bootloader, use official metod for example, but don't need for this (unlock bootloader, flash custom kernel and ....), , only to install sound mod.
That is the problem, look at official sony web site, my device is not on the list for bootloader unlock. So can you offer me a guide how to downgrade to 5.1.1, a noob friendly guide.
1. Download and install the program flashtool by Androxyde. - http://www.flashtool.net/downloads.php
2. Install drivers from installation folder /Drivers - Driver for model Xperia and Flashmod drivers.
3. Download FTF file for YOUR MODEL DEVICE with 5.1.1 from here for example:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2759934
and copy to folder with Flashtool/ Firmwares
4. Start Flashtool and click on Flash icon.
5. Choose Flashmod (not Fastboot), and find the FTF, that you download before with 5.1.1
6. Follow the guide in the program Flashtool and all will be the OK,

Hey man,first,you need to downgrade to KK (.314 it´s the best one) and then root and install recovery,then update to LP .232 or .264 and then go to MM,follow the instructions that Monipeev gave to you (but choose .314 fw) and then follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...ck-d6502-03-23-4-0-546-completeguide-t3171219 Hope you get it
Bro i don't want MM right now. I just want root access so if its 5.1.1 i am okay with that. Monipeev i will try your method and notify you about the result tomorrow.

Okay after this how do i root the easiest way? kingroot one click apk ? or you suggest something else for locked bootloader bro ?
Go through the steps of Root compilation .264 Android 5.1.1, with a version of the application Kingroot that uses the author of the video.
After root success, replace Kingroot with SuperSu.
Root Android 5.1.1, .264

it was about drivers. i have installed all of the drivers (even those i don't need) in flashtool folder. also windows installed semc and somc drivers by itself and i have successfully flashed. i hope i dont get bootloop because its been 2 minutes and im still waiting for it come to menu btw i didn't wipe the userdata and applog while flashing.
Edit: just a last thing how do i replace kingroot with supersu, i can google it but since you are guiding me through this
Edit2: okay no bootloop awesome, now the only thing left to do is rooting. thank you so much for your help bro. i will notice you if i have a problem again. i hope this thread will be helpful for others too like me
I think if you follow this guide, you will finish ok:
http://www.w0lfdroid.com/2015/05/How-to-Remove-Replace-KingUser-KingRoot-with-SuperSU.html?m=1
there is a program called superSuMe apk. does it work ? any idea ?
I'm sorry, but I have no experience with this app.
At least that is described in its description.
wow now i get ''unfortunately the process com.android.media has stopped'' message and phone keeps resetting..
Edit: i think i will reflash with wipe options..
Surely it would be better.
its done
