Android version : 4.3 / kernel version : 3.4.0 / Build number : 15.4.A.1.9
I have unlocked bootloader succesfully with flashtool but when I tried to root it shows following log.
07/029/2016 22:29:17 - INFO - Trying to apply root exploit. It can be very long. Please wait ...
07/029/2016 22:29:17 - INFO - Root failed

I have tried many time with towelroot also but phone reboots and root fails.
(I would like to inform you that the first time I have tried to unlock bootloader of my phone, it went in bootloop.Then I installed a new rom(firmware) and again unlocked bootloader.)

What do you mean by "i am unroot my device" ? Your phone is an unrooted one or you want to unroot your phone ??
Install all drivers before using flashtool, else you will get similar errors.
check , usb debugging and unknown sources in settings in your phone.
Please if you can post the flashtool log.
Ive been trying for 4 days now to unlock my bootloader on my Z5P, it says ok and what not on cmd, I restart my phone and its reset but the bootloader still says 'bootloader unlock allowed: yes' ive tried using flashtool but it says my device is unsupported
Im using the E6853 on 6.0.1 MM
I have made sure OEM unlock is enabled and that stays enabled after reset, the fastboot drivers are installed, and I've tried flashing a custom kernel with an error writing to boot, any help? :crying:

Anybody here to help me
the ONLY way to ROOT is to UNLOCK the bootloader and flashing kernal.
i rooted my E6833 by this way ONLY. (two months ago)
but since then, new MM vulnerabilities have been found.
did u try KINGROOT ?

BOOTUNLOCKED allowed : YES
means you can unlock the bootloader by KEYS. (provided by sony) (you can request them)
buttt dont just blindly unlock ur bootloader, u will loose drm keys!
first step
install flashtool http://www.flashtool.net/downloads_windows.php
Yes i have flashtool .. Then ?

Hi guys, i hope i get some help with this!
I was on naosp 6.0 b12 and needed to downgrade.
I thought it would be as easy as open flashtool and flash latest ftf. But of course not.
Used xperia companion but it did not recognize the phone. Maybe normal.
Then i tried to relock my bootloader within flashtool. Didn't work, the phone always rebooted to naosp.
Then i read somewhere here that i should flash a stock kernel, i extracted one from the ftf and flashed it in flashboot. I got an error there so i thought that it didn't work either but... since then the phone is bricked.
When i try to turn it on i only get one green blink and a vibration.
What i have tried
soft and hard reset. No help
flash stock and naosp kernel through flashtool : i get the reply that my phone my phone is not rooted, the b/l is locked and cannot be officially unlocked!!!!!!!
And when i leave the phone connected in flashmode more than a minute the green led goes on and off...
Anyone have any good ideas???
Heeelppppp
I am just writing some names here just in case someone gets half a chance to have a look...
@mickybart
@m1st3r1
@Lunatiic
i have done some attempts to flash the latest ftf. It all seems to give error when the green led blinks off for 1 second...
Wait!
This just got weirder!
I managed to somehow unlock my bootloader again altought i did the flashtool process 10 times.
i am now able to boot naosp 6 b12 (or 13) again.
So back to the initial problem.
How to flash back latest official and relock bootloader.

With the latest release of Flashtool it is now possible to relock bootloader.
Download the latest flashtool from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2162907
Important
DO NOT USE ANY FTF TO RELOCK BOOTLOADER! THOSE OLD FTFs DO NOT WORK FOR THE 2013 DEVICES!!!
before u relock bootloader u have to be on pure stock kernel (flash only the kernel.sin using flashtool), else the device WILL NOT BOOT after relock
Steps:
now start Flashtool and click on BLU button
u will be asked to connect device in flashmode
once u connect the device u will get a prompt to "Relock"
click on it and when prompted disconnect the device
here is how u can lock back the bootloader and u can use the pc companion to remake ur device if it is damaged or can't find a way out,it will be brought back to the original state with the pure stock rom,but as far as i can tell,that site that was giving the codes for unlocking is not working anymore,not sure,didn't try it,but u can try it with the official bootloader unlock from sony too,it might work and start all again from the begginin

But my attempt to flash the kernel sin from the latest ftf did not fare so well...
any chance you've got broken ftf? try using another ftf.
to relock the bootloader, you need to be in stock rom (ftf) first, cause you had changed the partition of sxs when using naosp 6.
i never did relocking my sxs when using naosp 6 (i did it in mm era tho), but i had flashed back to stock ftf when using naosp 6, and there was no problem. just flash the ftf using flash tool, and select all wipe, no need to flash the kernel first.

Thanks for your answer. I have downloaded the first ftf i found a couple of times, i get a red ''null'' at flashtool
The other 2 ftfs i have downloaded are not seen in flashtool. I update flashtool and still no game... Now i am trying an older version of flashtool
Update
I extracted the contents of an ftf, and used flashtool to create an ftf. Then it recognized it, i flashed and got this

I see no light in the tunnel guys (and girls)
Flash kernel.sin from stock, relock bootloader, flash a ton of ftfs but not go. I get only NULL
I have found that i can then unlock bl, flash boot.img from b13 and then i have a working naosp.
Any suggestions?
Will i need to revert the partition changes somehow (emphasis on how!) ?
To answer my own question then.
All the ftfs were working, all my followed processes were good BUT
all that was needed was a previous version of flashtool...
With version 0.9.81.6
i did not need to flash a stock kernel, nor relock bootloader. Simply flash the ftf
Thanks so much for the suggestions. I lost a nights sleep but it was barely the means to an end

Dear XDA Community,
I have an Xperia M C1905 and I have checked the service info menu and it shows "Rooting Status: Bootloader unlock allowed:Yes" so I can unlock bootloader but I have heard that unlocking bootloader can cause the phone to bootloop. So I want to know how to unlock the bootloader, root this phone and add a custom recovery. I don't know whether I should take a TA Partition backup or not. I do own an xperia SP which I have but it is broken so the Xperia M C1905 will have to be used for the time being. Can someone from the forum show me the right links for unlocking bootloader, root, custom recovery. A set of instructions to follow since looking at the forum I got no idea which guide to follow for this phone.
Currently this phone requires the bootloader to be unlocked without causing a bootloop to happen.
It is currently running android 4.3 stock - Build Number: 15.4.A.1.9
I'm a noob at this since the last time I unlocked bootloader and added custom rom to the xperia SP was like 4 years ago.
Thread closed on OP's request.

Vatsal.
