What have you done before? Have you tried to install a custom rom? But that's no problem, first you've to reflash the firmware, by doing this:
Download flashtool (can be found in dev section)
Download the firmware .587 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24467321&postcount=1)
Install flashtool
Put the downloaded ftf file into the firmware folder of flashtool (C:\Flashtool\firmwares)
Then start flashtool, click at the flash button, choose the firmware, check "No final verification" and click on Ok
Follow the instructions
If the firmware have been successfully flashed, turn your phone on
Optional: Then you can root it again and install CWM if you want
When you've got a question, just post it :good:
can you please advice how do i update my firmware from .431 to .587?
one post above yours - there is a solution for intall .587

you flash this kernel for 587
We all have gotten a sneak peek of Sony's lollipop update onto our beloved z1 compact. Through the many ways available I for instance used an ftf file. But they do not come pre-rooted like the zip file alternatives.
The only way to root ftf I am told is to flash a kernel pre-installed with a recovery then flash SuperSU zip. I have flashed like 3 different boot.imgs only to find no TWRP/Philz/cmw recovery.
Can anyone give me a WORKING kernel that will boot into a recovery? Would really appreciate this.
Found my solution
Edit: I just found a cm11 snapshot boot.img kernel, flashed it. Booted to recovery and flashed a pre-rooted rom zip. Easy as pie.
Thanks all.
Just flash KK firmware 108, root it, install recovery latest version, and afterwards flash any customised prerooted ROM of your choice.

This is too much work. Work that I have to do. It's the only way to root this ftf. damn it
It's up to you.
I've done it.
I made a pre-rooted ftf using PRF creator and compiling the SUPERSU v2.37 and Z1C locked dual recovery 2.8.12 from Nuts site.
You can use Xperifirm to download the the firmware, then use Flashtool to decrypt the fileset and create the FTF, then you're good to go.
Hello guys.Does this method works??Without unlocking the bootloader? http://techchomps.com/root-14-5-a-0-242-android-5-0-lollipop-on-sony-xperia-z1-compact/

Awesome, which version region did you use? Mind sharing?
I am almost running out of options
So after everything done can we restore TA partition and relock the bootloader?

I'm from the UK but I used the "Customized US" version. It works all the same, I've put together a UK one now but I'll need to wipe data before I can use it.
I'd share if I didn't have awful internet. The file is massive, unfortunately.
You'll find multiple threads on how to do different parts.
You need to create your pre-rooted firmware, then you'll need to download KK with Xperifirm (probably .108) and flash it with Flashtool.
Root KK using Easy Root Tool and install XZDualRecovery using the desktop client.
Once you're rooted with SuperSU/SuperUser and Recovery you can install the pre-rooted firmware (PRF) as a flashable zip within Recovery itself.
There's also work arounds for Xposed which you can find too, I've used them and it's all working as it should for now.
I also have a locked bootloader, so don't worry about unlocking it. I'll have a look around for the threads I used and post any I find.

I'll leave you to find your own SuperSU or SuperUser zip, same with XZDualRecovery as they're frequently updated so you're better off finding the latest versions.
But how can you flash 108 if you are already on 242 and you have a locked bootloader? You must unlock it first...

What I did is that I downgraded with Flashtool, rooted KK, and then flashed a prerooted rom through the recovery. No need to unlock the bootloader.

How did you downgrade really?
You just flashed the 157 FTF in flashmode? It's doable?

OK, there seems to be some loss in translation somewhere. Hope this will clear up some stuff:
1. Flash KitKat (kernel, system, everything).
2. Root it.
3. Install recovery (here)
4. Since you don't want to make your own pre-rooted firmware, here. Click on 'Google Drive' for the zip, and FTF. You need both.
5. Put the zip in your SD card/internal.
6. Boot into recovery and clear all data (dalvik, system, data, everything).
7. Flash the zip. DO NOT REBOOT.
8. Shutdown and use Flashtool to flash the .ftf you downloaded. Check System and Baseband on the 'exclude' column.
9. Have fun!
@dazzerfong OK,first of all thanks for your answer. What I'm asking is how did you do the first step with locked bootloader.
Flashtool->Flashmode->KitKat 157 FTF->Then root it blah blah?
Are these steps correct or not? Im about to try today cos I really miss root on my phone.
If you are already on Lollipop and your bootloader is locked you can get root this way.
1.Download the correct KitKat (.157) ROM for your country/operator using Xperifim.
Convert it to FTF using Flashtool. (there are tutorials,search)
2.Flash the FTF you created using Flashtool's Flashmode. Include everything.
3.Root your KitKat (.157) using the forum's tutorials and also install [NUT]'s recovery.
4.Boot into recovery and flash your pre rooted ROM in flashable zip format.
(There are also tutorials on how to create this with Xperifim and PRF programs).
5.Enjoy rooted Lollipop with locked bootloader.

Yep! All done with locked bootloader (or, if you want, unlocked, but you're wasting your time if you're unlocked). So, first you flash the FTF of a KitKat ROM.
Rooting, use Towelroot or something. No idea why, but Towelroot refuses to play with my TWRP (recovery), so I used the old method.
@dazzerfong
One last question cos I just did all the steps but I couldnt reboot into Lollipop after flashing my pre rooted rom zip file.
6. Boot into recovery and clear all data (dalvik, system, data, everything).
7. Flash the zip. DO NOT REBOOT.
8. Shutdown and use Flashtool to flash the .ftf you downloaded.
Check System and Baseband on the 'exclude' column.

On step 8 which FTF you mean exactly? I assume you mean the FTF from which you created
your pre rooted zip initially? In my case the Customized GR version?
N.

You should have downloaded 2 things so far: the zip, and the FTF. That FTF is Lollipop stock: doesn't matter where it's from. Flash that in Flashtool, but remember to check 'System' and 'Baseband' in the 'Exclude' column.

Downgrade to .108 (with flashtool) in order to directly root the phone, whereas with .157, you'll have to flash an older kernel with flashtool in order to get root.
Once rooted, just get yourself a flashable prerooted firmware (zip file) and flash it from the recovery (after a wipe factory reset; wipe data; wipe cache; wipe Davilk Cache and Wipe System).
My t2 give me an error ..after flash tool ..factory service start up ..power off...how to fix this plz guys ...i need your help
download the latest flashtool if you dont have latest ver.
Also download latest stock firmware, if you want to download by using XperiFirm

You only need the latest version of flashtool if you have a 2015 or newer Xperia device 9.18.6 or earlier are the better versions and wipe clean the device ticking userdata and cache this will prevent any problems you can also use flashtool to download the firmware instead of xperifirm.
Hello there,
I see that there are already some threads about that but i'm a little bit confused. Can please someone posts clear instructions and links for the tools needed in order to downgrade my xperia M5 to lollipop?
So you need to download the latest version of flashtool from www.flashtool.net then look up your m5's model (eg. E5603, E5606, E5653) and download the software from http://www.xperiablog.net/forum/resources/categories/2015-xperia-range.73/ here (generic just means not set to a specific carrier and it doesnt matter about the country), then click the lightning button in flashtool and select flash mode then select your software and then follow the instructions
Thanks very much for the instructions. I also combined some guides found on the internet and performed the downgrade. You should download the firmware via xperifirm, bundle it in flashtool and then flash it.
