Hello,
I have a Xperia Play R800i SIM unlocked with unlocked bootloader, firmware 2.3.4, 4.0.2.A.0.62.
Can someone link me to a Step By Step tutorial on how to root this phone? I have read this:
"Just download recoveryPLAY.img (google it) and place it in androidSDk folder where the fastboot.exe is located. Switch on your phone using fastboot and enter the command fastboot boot recoveryPLAY.img. Also download the RootXperia.zip and flash it once you are in recovery. Later on If you want CWM (recovery) on your phone , you can follow this thread."
But I don't know what fastboot is. I only know that in order to enter in fastboot mode on the phone you need to press the search button when connecting it to the PC.
Can you help me? And btw, if I manage to root the phone, will it wipe all my apps a.k.a. phone data? And what about the SD Card?
Thank You
Can't root if the firmware is .62 or higher unless you install a prerooted kernel.

And how to do that? Are there any disadvantages implied?
Thank you
Would there be any prob if I follow the tutorial to install the "Xperia NXT v1.1" Rom?
To flash a prerooted kernel you have to have an unlocked bootloader. The just follow the install guide for which ever kernel you install once you get your bootloader unlocked.
I was able to root mine without unlocking the bootloader. Search and try this pc software which is quite easy and efficient... Unlock root v 2.3.1.exe download at unlockroot.com. Hope this helps
Sent from my Xperia Play R800i.
I couldn't use that software because my r800i was .62. But I managed to flash a new room and install a new kernel. Thanks anyway.
Root Xperia ZL with Latest .244fw
I Take no credit for this I have done zero development work
All credits to the great @DooMLoRD
This is a just a Guide telling how to implement his method
Requirement
Latest Flashtool https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B8hAoiy5gSGVZU5zOHU4TFdJTkk/preview
latest Ftf file for fw .244
Ftf file for fw .423
Latest DoomLord Rootinf Kit v18 (no else would work in this case) http://www76.zippyshare.com/v/29480564/file.html
Make sure device is on latest .244 fw (If not then wait for the official update)
NOTE: We need complete file only to flash the Kernel.sin & Loader.sin
OR
Use the files provided by me which contain the required files only (easier method)
These kernel files are from C6502 if you have another device they might not work. In that case use the complete FTF files for your device and root using complete ftf method
Latest .244 file https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B8hAoiy5gSGVcDI4di1YTnNYSkU/edit?pli=1
Older fw.423 file https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B8hAoiy5gSGVbmtOY2lyMUc0OXM/edit?pli=1
How (Using complete ftf packages)
Flash only the kernel.sin & loader.sin from older .423ftf package using FlashTool
Uncheck all wipe options
Check all exclude option EXCEPT Exclude Kernel
Now flash this using flashtool
Reboot the device and make sure USB Debugging & Unknown Sources are allowed in settings
Now root using the latest DoomLord Kit v18 (No other version of kit will work)
Turn Off the Device and put in Flash Mode (Press Volume Down while attaching usb cable)
Now open the latest .244ftf package and repeat the check and uncheck process as earlier
Flash only the Kernel.sin & Loader.sin
Reboot the Device
Done !!
OR
How (Using given ftf files) EASIER WAY
These kernel files are from C6502 if you have another device they might not work. In that case use the complete FTF files for your device and root using complete ftf method
Flash the .423 kernel ftf package using FlashTool
Reboot the device and make sure USB Debugging & Unknown Sources are allowed in settings
Now root using the latest DoomLord Kit v18 (No other version of kit will work)
Turn Off the Device and put in Flash Mode (Press Volume Down while attaching usb cable)
Now open the latest .244kernel ftf package and flash it
Reboot the Device
Done !!
I take no responsibility for any kind of damage to your Phone
Do all this at your own risk
Thankyou @DooMLoRD for your great work
This is the 3rd post on the same thing (excluding Doomlord's original).

OK, I think I found the flashtool on Sony's web site, when I connect to Emma it says my bootloader is locked. I have to unlock the bootloader in order to just root?

you can root again in 4.3 re-lockable bootloader
*#*#7378423#*#* check your bootloader is unlocked or unlocked allowed
there is another method is there to root 4.3 and also in lock bootloader without downgrade to 4.1/4.2
I'm trying now to flash ftf excluding system and without wiping data and it is still loading

without wiping system wont work on your phone becouse you modified system app
so you need to flash system also
and you said bootloader unlock allowed then follow my steps(unlock & relock) on next post

Indeed It is still in boot loop but is there no way to access the device and change permissions without having to flash !!!
EDIT :I mean what about adb and fastboot
4.1/4.2/4.3 root for unlocked allowed bootloader may works on all xperia m varient
first check *#*#7378423#*#* service info ->configuration "bootloader unlock allowed yes" then continue
you need
4.3 ftf (for stock kernel & loder.sin to unlock bootloader)
flashtool
Root App supersu.rar
cwm kernel
steps
first place supersu.rar in your hone externel card
then open flash tool connect your phone in flashmode(volume up + connect usb)then click BLU button
if u get error that loder.sin missing then extract loder.sin from 4.3 ftf and place in correct place
then unlock bootloader
now root your phone using this method
now to relock bootloader
once again connect phone in flashmode then click BLU (relock success)
now to stock kernel
once again connect phone in flashmode click flash button and select 4.3 ftf
now untick wipe data & cache
and also tick all in exclude part except kernel (which means flash kernel only)
and click flash alone
thats all:good::good::good:

Using this method, you don't have to flash .230 kernels or use towel root.
For Unlocked bootloader only.
for unlocking any xperia device bootloader, check this link.
Requirements
Sony Mobile Flasher by Androxyde
C650x Superuser Mod
Advanced stock kernel for KK 10.5.1.A.0.283
Install all necessary drivers for xperia zl like flashtool drivers and adb drivers.
Steps
Open "Sony mobile Flasher by Androxyde".
Connect the device to the system using fastboot mode. For this, turn off the device and connect it to the system using USB cable while pressing the volume up button.
Now in "Sony Mobile Flasher", click the flash button on the top left corner and select fastboot mode.
Now click "Select kernal to flash" button.
Next, browse for the "Advance_stock_kernel_for_KK_10.5.A.0.283" image file. For getting the image file, you need to extract the zip file you have downloaded.
And now click OK. The flashing will be finished in seconds.
Now you have a custom recovery for the Xperia ZL.
Next, copy the "C6506_10.5.1.A.0.283_Superuser_Mod.zip" into your Xperia ZL and reboot the device to recovery.
In recovery, Select the "Install" option and find the "C6506_10.5.1.A.0.283_Superuser_Mod.zip" file and flash it.
Now reboot your device, And you are rooted!
For "Sony Mobile Flasher" screenshots, Check this link.

Yes, as long as you keep one important thing in mind: this method is for unlocked BL only. Downgrading a kernel works for both locked and unlocked BL.

The above method works perfectly for all the xperia ZL models(C6502,C6503,C6506) with an unlocked bootloader. I personally tried it, so don't worry at all.

It's very simple to get the boot.img file from the .zip file. Just right click the file named "Advanced_stock kernel_for_KK_10.5.1.A.0.283.zip", and select the following option "7 - zip -> Extract here". Now you can find your .img file in the extracted location.

For rebooting your xperia device to recovery, First turn off the device, and then turn it on while repeatedly pressing the Volume up button until the recovery mode appears. I'm not sure about what kind of permissions you are talking about. Feel free to ask any doubts.

sorry I´m can´t understand. It is not verry complicated system, but I don´t know where or why I can´t.

For having a custom recovery mode, your phone doesn't need to be rooted. For Recovery, flash the
"Advance_stock_kernel_for_KK_10.5.A.0.283" image file given in the main thread. Using "Flash tool by Androxyde" (Check main thread).
The screenshots for installation are given in main thread. After installing the recovery, Proceed with the rooting process.
If you can't follow the above method, try this method.

Hey, I followed this guide on my Z5P (cant copy the link, search it in google - twigstechtips blogspo sony z5-compact root without losing ta) until the last stage (not included) and everything succeed.
Now I have mm with root, so I tried to install RomAur, I copied the files (kernel and rom) to ex sd but I couldn't got access to TWRP I use adb command and power off the device and press plus/minus button but still without success.
Later I tried to flash with cmd the img file of the TWRP, the process succeed but still I couldn't get access to it.
Another question, I saved my DRM key, can I integrate it with Aur-Kernel-V3.0? cause I couldn't understand how I should do it on modified kernel.
Sorry for my English..

let me help you out as i have spend a few hours trying to solve this issue with my E6853.
1. DL Z5P_AndroPlusKernel_v4a.zip & twrp-2.8.7.0-E6853-20151122_material.img
(if your phone is a dual version,then DL the dual kernel and recovery.Pay attention to the model number,flashing a different one may brick your phone)
2. make sure you have ADB(fastboot) and all the relevant drivers installed(you can google them or find them in xda)
3.extract the kernel and you will get the image file.place them in the same folder as where you installed your adb (aka fastboot)
4. place your phone in fastboot mode.
5. using adb command,flash the kernel img and then the recovery img to your phone.
6.reboot and press vol up to enter into recovery.
i was not able to get twrp 3.02 working so i am using the old 2.8 version.if you can get the lastest one working,let me know how.

Hey,
Thank you very much for the explanation, but I figured it out and I am running twrp 3.02, I flashing the stock modified kernel [UB] [32.1.A.1.185] [E6833/E6853/E6883] [16-04-2016] by KbaB.BroS using the adb and it's works.
For my second question maybe you can help me, I saved my drm keys(MY TA FILE) and after I flash the stock modified kernel I flash romaur using recovery.
My question is now can I restore the my drm key?

you can flash your TA keys by following this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z5/development/root-automatic-repack-stock-kernel-dm-t3301605).
basically you need to "convert" your TA.img to the .ftf file and then flash using flashtool.
e.g: flash_dk ta.img DK.ftf
the author of this program have already stated Flashing this file with flashtool will write your device key to an alternative unit, from where the drmfix library will pick it up. and Nevertheless be prepared for problems if the custom kernel does not match your Android version.
its pretty straightforward. if your kernel is using the same program i mentioned,then the drmfix should be included,therefore u just need to flash your own TA keys using flashtool and you shld be ok.
if memory serves me well, your fido keys shld be showing ok if the drmfix libaries picked up your own devices' TA keys instead of the fix.

the adb (fastboot)command is flash_dk ta.img DK.ftf
(this does not flash anything to your phone while using fastboot,it will convert your ta.img file to .ftf file and you will need to use flashtool to flash it.)
fido keys is part of your TA backup.it will show up if you do a security check.
again, you need to read through the guide and the posts there.
