Xperia M Dual c2005 rooting - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys.. I'm fairly new to this website (registered a few days ago but knew the website for ages)
My cellphone is an Xperia M dual (C2005)....
The thing is, I used towelroot to root because I didn't want to use the adb thingy.. The conclusion is I don't have custom recovery..
Since I want to flash I'm never aware of whether I'm gonna brick or not my cellphone...
So with that being said, I would be glad if someone could link me to a 4.4 KitKat ROM (I want this http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2722892), a way to install custom recovery (without fastboot preferibly, if there is a way) and how to backup&restore the data in case of bricks! ... If you could guide me step-by-step, that would be amazing!
Thanks if you have read all that text!
Have a nice week!
And pls, im begging that we talk on other place like facebook or something else if u dont have anything like that forget it and we'll just talk here

Hey You can have any game in your U20i ,there is only one problem that you have ,that is were you able to play a game in your mini pro! Rooting your x10MP does not delete your sd data (but may your phone data, if you upgrade to another firmware and root, will delete phone data ).
heres the link for rooting- forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=950324
And another thing please go through x10MP section before asking this kind of questions!

Hey, bro!
First of all, there are no stupid questions, weŕe all learning here .
Rooting, in itself, doesnt let you play more Games/Apps.If you want to use more and especially newer apps, you will have to install a Custom ROM on your device, commonly known as flashing. A custom ROM is a is an android operating system that is different from your latest "official"(made by SonyEricsson) OS. Custom ROMs for our device are very practical, because our latest official Android version is 2.1, which doesnt support many apps. Currently, the best working custom ROMs for our Phone are the ones based on 2.3 Gingerbread.
To get the very best out of your Phone, you will have to unlock your bootloader (which is slightly risky) and flash a custom kernel, which is also part of a new Android OS(tutorials you will find in the following link).
If the procedure of unlocking your bootloader is to risky/difficult for you, there is another alternative: to flash a ROM based on your preinstalled("stock") kernel. For this you HAVE to root your phone, which doesnt have any risks and isnt difficult, install xrecovery (a program to install new ROMs) and then flash a "stock kernel based" ROM. Everything else you need to know is in this Links:
All custom ROMs and Tutorials for xrecovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1588192
For unlocking your bootloader:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1462278
PS.: You wont lose any on your sdcard and phone if you just root your Phone. If you flash a new ROM, you will lose the data on your Phone, but not the data on your sdcard.

[Help]How to root or toggle fullscreen on Sharp SH930W

Hello developers.
First, I swear that I already searched all the forum posts for my device support (Sharp SH930W - Japan smartphone) but there are none.
I can't find the way to root my phone and of course I can't install ROM (if available) for this phone too . I know that this is not a famous smartphone but it running Android 4.1.1 and have all the standard apps, the phone is quite powerful itself (dual core, 2Gb RAM, 5inch IGZO screen)
If there is noway to root it, perhaps help me to toggle fullscreen mode (hide status bar, bottom bar). I tried many app on CHPlay but all of them for rooted device or older Android version.
Please help.
er, emergency. Please Help?
Got this phone in Thailand... Some help with rooting would be greatly appreciated
Edit: the SHBreak tool might be useful, but I haven't figured out how to use it - bit.ly/ZPh6An (can't post proper links yet, sorry)

I am waiting :good::good::good:
So, right now the situation is:
SHBreak didn't work
Bin4ry's root didn't work
No flashable custom recovery available
Can't extract stock recovery (to get started with CWM builder)
How are we supposed to get started? Probably by finding a proper exploit, but I can only wait for that
Bin4ry said that his root won't work (I checked out on the pre-FeelUX firmware as well) and I still haven't got an answer from the guy responsible for SHBreak. Maybe somebody who speaks Japanese could help in the communication process
hi guys,
well, here we are....bought the mobile in Taiwan, like the display and it was cheap (11900 NTD which is around 300 euro). no root modified ROM or rooting available.
wondering how long it will take...

elmo
oh
we are obviously too early, released in e few countries only...
I got mine few days ago from HK, You get a lot for 300e...
I can put it in fastboot, does that mean phone is unlocked, or you can have fastboot on locked phone?

Help for installing a custom recovery and rom in HTC Desire 700 dual Sim

Hello people,
So I've been using this phone for quite some time(HTC desire 700 dual Sim) it's running on stock Android which is 4.1.2(it sucks, I know) I am not super good at phone and stuff but I am quite interested and I have already rooted this phone. The problem is that I cant find a custom recovery and custom rom (I would like any new ones, like android 6.0,which obviously will never make it officially into) so yes, I prefer 6.0 or similar ones... I would like to request you guys to help me in this. Would like detailed step to step instructions. I know my phone is stupid and I should replace it but atm I am not willing to buy anything since I have to pay rent. Thank you all. Sorry for my bad english.
