please read the instructions, if M4 Aqua E2303 you have to be on firmware 26.1.A.1.128 and for M4 Aqua Dual E2363 you have to have firmware 26.1.B.1.85.
you can use flashtool to flash the ftf to go back on the firmware and then root the phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/root-how-to-root-5-0-lollipop-t3212108

1. Don't use vRoot
2. Tell us what model you have (C68xx) and firmware version.

C6802
Build number : 14.2.A.1.136
First of all, vRoot doesn't support 136. It only supports 532 and earlier, but don't use it either way. You can either downgrade to 532, root it, flash a ROM through recovery and be done with it, or you can update to 681 KitKat and root it by unlocking the bootloader, but only IF you've already backed up your TA partition.
There are several guides and threads on this topic, so please search and try to follow one of them.

[Q] downgrade back to kitkat 4.4.4

Is it possible to go back to stock kitkat 4.4.4 ftf from a stock lollipop 5.0.2 without having any issues like losing imei number or any other problems? My xperia z ultra 6833 was not upgraded from 4.4.4 to 5.0.2 with Ota. I flash with a stock 5.0.2 ftf via flashtool
Thanks

You have to wait til 5.0.2 is rootable. Check Sony site maybe you can unlock the bootloader on lollipop.

Why do I need to wait for 5.0.2 root? Or unlock bootloader? I wasnt rooted and my zu bootloader was locked when I upgraded from 4.4.4 to 5.0.2 with Sony flash tool. All I needed was a ftf file with same region

I'm not sure if you can downgrade that way. I would try? Maybe not? If anything goes wrong you could always just flash stock again.
If you root and unlock bootloader you can move between android. I'm on 5.0.2 I can go back to kitkat anytime I want.
Has anyone downgraded from 5.0.2 to 4.4.4 yet? without having to root or unlock their bootloader. The reason I don't want to unlock my bootloader is because I accidentally erased my ta backup. That's why Im trying to get back to 4.4.4 so I can root and backup my ta again to unlock my bootloader. I just want to know if it is safe to downgrade my 6833 zu without root or unlocked bootloader
Thanks
Lollipop uses a different firmware so probably not. I didn't black up my TA .. I just went about unlocking it.
Try to flash a 4.4.4 ftf?
Yes but I want to back up my ta first before I unlock my bootloader because if I don't I'll lose the xreality keys and warranty. so it has different firmware so 5.0.2 won't be downgradable to 4.4.4? so you suggest I wait for a 5.0.2 root.
Sorry yes I wanted to to flash a stock 4.4.4 ftf with Sony flashtool
I figured I would give an update I was able to downgrade from 5.0.2 to 4.4.4 ftf with a locked bootloader without any problems

So someone who gets an Ota for lollipop can turn around and root their phone? The only reason you're rooted is because you downloaded a pre rooted rom.
So again lollipop is un rootable
So has anybody followed this guide?
Was it effective? I am reluctant to unlock my bootloader but on how my xzu sounds on my earphones, I am very eager to install V4A.
i am go to sony service center for downgrade the xperia z ultra from 5.0.2 to 4.4.4 but they said xperia z ultra chipset cannot support downgrade there any solution for downgrade bcoz my z ultra only get software by pc companion and flashtool and custom rom cannot work plz help me i flsah custom rom then device stuck on sony logo

You're in the wrong device section. This is the Z Ultra forum. Anyhow, I see that you have the ZL, so I'll make this short. Tell me your region, and I'll make you a 4.4.4 FTF.
EDIT: I'm assuming the C6506 is the American version of the ZL, so the only 4.4.4 file that's available is the one for Puerto Rico. I'm building it now, so I'll put a link to it here when it's done.
