I think any working ROM should be fine but I will not pay for your bricked phone, ok?

Thanks already restored now my ta. One thing that surprised me though is that restoring supposedly relocks the bootloader which it did but the root maintained i thought relocking bl will also remove root and you have to unroot again with methods for locked BL

Pls.someone help me how to Relock Bootloader in xperia M
If you have TA backup, use that..
There are various guides on how to do that properly with what precautions you must take and all...
But make sure you flash it over the same firmware you had taken it from, else you'll end up having a brick.

ok guys here is my problem
am trying to unlock bootloader for my xperia m.so safety purpose(re locking bootloader in future) i will take ta partition backup. according to my knowledge ta partition will change on different FW.

is that fine? or do i need to take additional steps ,,,,, ????

In the quote of my previous post there is a highlighted part.
Just take the backup before you unlock the bootloader.
Backup TA partition before unlocking bootloader otherwise they will be lost forever

To get something u have to loose something.. There is no other way available.. You can take backup and restore.. If u dont want to backup restore then u have to stick with unrooted phone

There is probably a backup of TA.img on mobile.. It'll be in the sdcard. That's the home folder.

Hey guys,
I was just wondering if someone found a way to root the xperia Z5 premium running on marshmallow 6.0.1
Unlock boot loader with flashtool. Flash this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3355369. Simplest way
Sent from my E6853 using Tapatalk
but if flash with this method have not lost Drm keys?
first, you have to flash android 5.X any version
second, make a root kernel or download one
third, unlocked bootloader your devices
fourth, flash android 6.0.1 and flash root kernel
finish ! enjoy your root devices
Well... The method I mentioned has the DRM simulation included. Read some in the tread if you are unsure.
Not sure why you should mess with 5.x before rooting... I rooted directly when unlocking 6.0.0 and downloading the 6.0.1 version with flashtool.

The reason for flashing android 5.X is only if you've not already unlocked the bootloader and decided on taking a TA backup so you can restore the phone to stock in the future

You can fully reactivate your drm keys as well on an unlocked bootloader (so not just emulate and for restore to stock) if you backed up your TA with iovyroot on LL by flashing restore-drm-keys.ftf
