To start, I'm sorry if this is in the wrong place. It looked like the right place, but I'm an extreme noob to this site.
--------------------------------------
My phone is an Xperia Play Model R800x Android version 2.3.4 Build number 4.0.2.E.0.57 from Verizon in the US and I have tried rooting it many times in many ways. I tried SuperOneClick and It didn't work. It got stuck on Step 7. I tried DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit and it said it was unable to Chmod everything/everything failed. I even tried manually doing it using this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18615502&postcount=7 . It said "Hellions with BLUE flames!" or whatever it is that it says. I think I tried it another way also, I don't even remember. I know these methods have worked for other people though.
I've tried all the above methods multiple times. I do have the Android SDK Tools installed and I installed the Platform-Tools. I do not have PC Companion because it for some reason wouldn't recognize my phone.
Questions:
-Is there any way to root it without downgrading the android version?
-Am I having problems because of the build number? I've only seen it on one other thread on a different website.
-Do I absolutely need PC Companion?
If anyone could PLEASE help me. I've been at this literally all day.
Thanks in advance!
As of now there is no way of rooting 2.3.4 for the R800x
You need to use flashtool to downgrade to 2.3.3 and then root

Well now I feel stupid.
Do you know if anyone is working on a way or should I just downgrade it?
I had a feeling I shouldn't have upgraded it...

Dear All,
Please be patient with me.
I live in UAE and cant find professional developers like your here.
I have Xperia play R800i 2.3.4 xxx.62 kernal.
I just want to get rid from pre-installed games and apk.
I tried to root my phone using Sony web site steps with fastboot steps.
the application could not push the superuser to the phone "I got error copying superuser .. r-only file"
After that I found the I can read the root from my phone but I can not control the files.
I just need to root the phone without loosing PSX emulator of flashing new custom roms.:silly:
Is there easiest way?
I found software on net named oneclickroot (30$), is this one real or fake?
Please help me I'm new in rooting phones.
Thanks.

Rooting your phone is free don't by 30 dollar software its probably a trick. Just unlock your boot loader from Sony sight and flash a custom kernel that's rooted

Did you tried to root with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2219711
You can always downgrade to .42 firmware and root it with zergrush.
It's easier to root it with custom kernel (unlocked bootloader), but you can do it even without unlocking your bootloader.

Hi, when trying to root my Sony Xperia U it doesn't work, I tried both options 3 and 4 but no luck, when it asks to unlock the phone and click on restore or something, I unlock my phone but there's nothing there.
Any suggestions? Thanks
LG AS730
I have researched as much as i could on here for this model and basically find nothing useful. There is a post that shows a method to root but i could not get that process to work.just wanted to give my input. I used root genius and it rooted mutt phone just fine. Now if i could get lg to tell new how to unlock the boatloader i would be in business. I saw the email that one developer got from lg about oem unlock. This does not work on this model. It just reboots normally. Any help on how to unlock my boatloader would be appreciated.
Rooting Xperia Z
Sorry to ask this, but does your root work with an Xperia Z c6606 10.4.C.0.814 running android 4.3. The phone is from T-Mobile if that makes a difference. It is not unlocked. I'm brand new to rooting, but my warranty of one year just ended, so I wanted to try rooting. Also, does the root delete any data, like pictures? Sorry to bother you with this question I'm very unexperienced.
Just rooted an Xperia ZL C6506 to Android 4.3 using Bin4ry's v.36 root kit!
I have my 2nd unlocked Xperia ZL C6506 phone (after the 1st one fried)! I upgraded the OS via OTA to Android 4.4.2 and then 4.4.4. The phone kept connecting to Baidu servers on a constant basis but only when on LTE in California. I would then delete the Baidu folder created (sometimes every 3 minutes!) The phone kept connecting to Baidu servers and the Baidu subdirectory kept getting created on the internal SD, the phone kept rebooting every 3-5 minutes and it kept overheating.
I finally got fed up and rooted my phone yesterday, using Bin4ry's v.36 rooting toolkit. I'm on Android 4.3 now. I originally tried the firmware 10.4.B.0.569 which performed better in terms of battery life and phone temperature, as well as the Enterprise Service not starting (in Security | Device administrators). I got greedy and flashed the 10.4.1.B.0.101 firmware (still Android 4.3) since it's newer. I noticed the Enterprise Service getting selected after rebooting, although I turn it off (uncheck it.)
Regardless, this rooting method saved me lots of grief and worked great. By the way, I tried all the options of the application, and the one that worked was option "0) New Z2 Root Method by cubeandcube (thanks man!)" [I think the developer's ID is actually "cubeundcube"]
Thanks Bin4ry for an awesome application!

[Q] Trouble with Bin4ry's Root [Please answer] [Kindle Fire 2]
About 4 days ago I had a perfectly working Kindle Fire (2nd Gen). But the all the apps I wanted all required root! I had a little look into rooting my Kindle Fire, and I stumbled across a YouTube video that led me to Bin4ry's topic. The video directed me to use the "Normal" option (Option 3 I believe??) so I went for it. An Interface came up on my Kindle came up telling me to backup my Kindle (So I did) and then another one came up telling me to restore it. The computer interface told me that restoring would do nothing, so I did. Then it rebooted my Kindle, and when it first loaded up, the first noticeable thing was that when it came to the LockScreen, the was no picture. "No Worries" I thought, and went to unlock my Kindle. Second observation. It was soooooooooooooo laggy, and e v e r y t h i n g m o v e d l i k e t h i s. Literally. I tapped a button, and it took thirty seconds for the button to tap. Then another minute to actually load somethinng. At this stage, I panicked. I had no idea what to do. I'm not sure if this is normal or anything. I also ran a check, AND I'M STILL NOT ROOTED!!! The good things are that
1: It's not bricked.
2: The Computer recognizes it as a USB device .
3: The Computer recognizes it as an ADB device.
4: I can navigate to the "Restore" button if I have to.
I would highly appreciate it if someone could please direct me how to fix this problem (Preferably without restoring). It would also be great if anyone could direct me to a valid Kindle Fire 2 rooting article. If you have got any questions about operating system, ect, just ask me.
Cheers
New Z2 Root Method might work...
Did you try Option 0 - New Z2 Root Method? It worked for my Xperia ZL, when none of the other methods worked.

not able to download the root binary files.
hi i'm trying to download root files but they r not downloading....please help me
Device: Sony Xperia M C1905
Software: 4.3
Bootloader: Locked
Basically, every single method I have tried to root this phone has failed. All I want to do is have root access to my phone, I want to be able to:
Use CynogenMod (FOR CLASH OF CLANS)
take my apps2SD
Delete any crap from my phone
Full Customization abilities
All this can be achieve by rooting but MY BOOTLOADER IS LOCKED.
There are numerous ways out there that just don't work.
Does anybody know how to first root my phone, and then to have access to a mod?
I want the mod to be able to do all the things I listed previously.
I know this is possible with CynogenMod on other phones, but my bootloader is locked, and I just don't know what to do. Done numerous tutorials, none seem to be working or some don't even have any download links.
If someone could give me a step by step guide on how to mod and root my phone that would be perfect.
I will respond very quick, and will ask you questions if I need help.
I will listen and try to follow your steps, but please give me specific details, I'm not a pro modder.
Thanks
unlock the bootloader from sonys site and then look on cms site for instructions, its noob friendly
