Friends... After rooting my xperia m dual... Do i able to receive software updates from sony?
Yes rooting you can but unlock the bootloader then you cannot receive OTA updates for firmware as it will brick the device

Hey guys. I bought an xperia m single sim (c1905) a week ago and rooted as soon as i got it. I wanted more so i tried to unlock the bootloader, but realised that my bl was not unlockable. I read on a few sites online that i can still flash 4.2.2 firmware on my phone. Is this possible with a locked bl? What are the risks involved? If so, is there a download.link for the latest 4.2.2 firmware?
1 more thing, is there any cwm recovery for locked bl?
Thank you guys for your help

Yup you can flash the 4.2.2 firmware of Xperia M Dual.
It wont void your warranty as its stock xperia rom only.
You may re flash SS M firmware whenever needed.
No Hou cant have CWM in a locked Bootloader Device.
You can use flash gordan instead to flash zips.

I have rooted n unlocked bootloader on XM 1904..
I hv flashed 15.1.c.1.17 ftf I want to upgrade to latest version..
Is there any chances to brick the device?
If you do it carefully there are no chances of brick,
Best way is, go to Sony update service and say repair, it all update to latest FW.

DO NOT USE SONY UPDATE SERVICE OR PCC this will brick your device hard as you have unlocked bootloader and Sony state this in their website you will have to download the ftf from this forum and flash it via flashtools

See if this thread helps. There is nothing much diff b/w c1904 & c1905 in terms of Firmware.

Ok guys once again, we are presented a new firmware for our lovely xperia M dual sim. Rooting should be the first thing on everyone's minds, so i was wondering if anyone has found a way to root this new firmware on locked bootloader and unlocked bootloader.
I hope a solution is found soon, cant wait

For unlocked bootloaders and locked bootloaders we should have a working cwm recovery...

I'm pretty sure you have to use Sony PC companion or flash an .ftf using flashtool.
