The safer way is to stay on locked bootloader and update with PC Compagnon or OTA. You can try to rebuild the Flashtool firmware to a TWRP update zip (never tested) if you have an unlocked bootloader.

Is that my Rom came full of app that has no way to uninstall and take up a lot of internal memory space.

Do you do a full wipe?

Please hit the thanks button if I helped
Installing incorrect ROM version caused this problem, for example installing Mini Pro(SK17) when you actually have Mini(ST15).

Get back to the original ROM using SEUS or flashtool. I think that could help.

If you unlocked the official way, then use the Relock_bootloader.ftf file and flash it via Flashtool.
If you didn't use S1Tool, then don't use it now either.

You can't via pcc or sus, you need to use flashtool to flash roms or recovery to install updates and keep root.

Hello guys,
i have searched a lot but couldn't find any useful guide on how to root xperia z2 6.0.1.
is it possible to root it ?? and if not, to what version should i downgrade and how to it + how to root the downgraded version and what are the softwares needed ??
my phone info:
model D6503
android 6.0.1
kernel 3.4.0-perf-gc14c2d5
build number 23.5.A.1..291
I really need to root it please help, thank you.
there is heaps of different methods out there, one just maybe needs to look harder,
one is http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/general/tool-rooting-23-5-1-291-supersu-t3437280
not a bad method that is relative easy,
really depends on what you want, custom rom, stock ,
if a custom rom, then i would recommend flashing a 5.1.1 stock rom and king rooting it then flash a good recovery and and a custom rom of your choosing
If you want to install custom rom:
1. Unlock your bootloader ( as required by most roms out there )
2. Flash TWRP using
Code:
fastboot flash recovery %filename%.img
In recovery,
3. Flash ROM
4. Flash SuperSU.zip
5. Done
If you just want root:
One-click root tools is your friends!

You those computer required ( e.g. Kingo Root ) root method and try again. Or you will need to flash a prerooted fw for your device.

Unlock your bootloader and try the SuperSU zip injection method. It is the last method I could think of at this moment.

Dont use EMMA, use flashtool by androxyde instead! It should be far better than EMMA.
Friends, I need a lot of help from you. I have the E2363 mode (Android 6.0.1)l and would like a way to root without unlocking the bootloader. As I do not have knowledge to make a firmware with root, someone could make and deliver for me to do the flash by flashtools? Thank you very much in advance!

Yes, if it's Marshmallow based Rom, you would still need unlocked bootloader.
the focus is wrong > it should be to make it possible to obtain recovery first

Sounds like your doing something wrong then You don't make the Pre-rooted zip for mm the same way as you do for lollipop and when downgrading/upgrading firmware you MUST wipe clean the device to avoid bootloop. Lollipop uses ftf, supersu and recovery.
Mm pre-rooted zip uses ftf, a dummy supersu zip and dummy recovery.
I know you can get rooted mm with locked Bootloader doing it that way as there's z3 and others using this way to get root on mm without unlocking the Bootloader. Unlocking the Bootloader to root mm is only a absolute requirement if your device has dm-verity security which the M4 aqua doesn't use.

I tried it in may ways like cleaning cache and wiping data but neither way pre rooted zip works with mm
Better bet is to upgrade > unlock bl > root

Hello everyone
I have been waiting for some time to update my XPERIA XA ULTRA to Nougat 7.0 and have been observing that many people are up to date with the update and would like to know if I can download and install the update manually.
If so, they could help me with the steps and the tools to do it.
Thank you very much.

No, I am waiting for my device to be updated in Guatemala I have it with a carrier here in my country, and I want to know if I can manually put it either with flashtool or from the bootloader update.
(sorry for my bad english )
To use flash tool you would need to have your bootloader unlocked.
I have that most branded xa ultra can't unlock bootloader.

Mine is branded, and can't unlock, useless and ignorant policies preventing us from getting the updates ourselves as the manufacturer doesn't seem to care.
I'm rooted would to flash 7.0 but no us ftf files.
All could fine is a 7,0 Latin America generic ftf and will not take trying to flash it.

You can flash stock ROM with flashtool without unlocking bootloader.
You can regain root after flashed to 7.0 (.182) by flashing boot followed by TWRP.
