You can change the customization number in your build.prop to 1271-0119 and download this firmware with Sony PC Companion. See [GUIDE] Download ANY firmware customization from Sony & create an FTF with Flashtool. Please also share it on XDA, because we still don't have that one.

The root is only temporary and is removed again after flashing the new firmware.

Rooting does not void warranty, who told you that.. There is a difference between rooting and bootloader unlocking. To change your customization number, you need to root without bootloader unlock. By the way, after flashing the new firmware, every trace of the root will be erased, so nobody will ever know that you rooted your phone temporary.

In part A of my guide, you can find the links to the appropriate tools that allow you to root without unlocking your bootloader. You just have to connect your phone with USB debugging enabled and run the tool. The rest goes automatically. So no need to request an unlock key from Sony or anything

Many websites say 'rooting' when they actually mean 'bootloader unlocking'. On that website, they're talking about bricking your phone and custom ROMs. That means they mean 'bootloader unlocking', because custom ROMs are not possible with a locked bootloader. While it's possible to root your phone by unlocking the bootloader, that is not always required.
For many Xperia devices, we have software exploits that allow to root your phone without touching the TA partition or bootloader. This means that all traces of the root will be erased if you flash clean stock firmware and Sony will never know.
This is not the case when you unlock your bootloader. If you created a backup of your TA partition before unlocking the bootloader, you could always restore your phone to factory state, but Sony will still know that you requested a bootloader unlock key.
Like I already said, you only have to root your phone temporary to change your customization number, without unlocking your bootloader. After flashing the new firmware, all traces of the root will be gone, so this method is completely safe and will not void your warranty.
By the way, did you edit your original post? I see you're asking firmware version 10.3.A.0.423 now. This is currently only available for the 'Generic TW' customization for C6602. This can be used perfectly in Europe and USA however. It contains all languages. You can find an FTF here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2337838 or change your customization number to 1270-5691 and update with Sony PC Companion.

True, there is no 4.2.2 firmware actually for US, they're still on 4.1.2.
Anyway x102x96x do a minimum of research before spamming "i need this!", you're not at the market commading this or that, manners dude!

LOL. Just some friendly advice. If you're going to berate people for not researching, I suggest you do it yourself before arguing
Look under Generic US in this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2315914
Those lists are retrieved directly from the Sony servers, so I would say that it's fairly official, no?

Any chance you could make an FTF, im guessing yours is unbranded / SIM free?
I want to remove the o2 branding from mine.. .
Theres a guide on how to create FTF files, but it does mean you will have to restore your phone to stock...no worries if not, im sure a Generic Global FTF will appear shortly.

A quick note on root, it works fine, but, there are some residual issues:

Even if i mount /system as RW... a few seconds later, device reboots...?
I'm on O2 UK Branded firmware.
[Bin4ry]
Yes thats what it does. It has nothing to do with a faulty root, it is just a security option on the Xperia T which should prevent modifications to the System partition. When i have time i will take a look and tell which daemon on device it is so we can kill the daemon and modificate the system partition.
Regards
Ok, i rooted my Xperia T with the above method but when i change something in the System folder the phone Reboots and puts it back to how it was
any ideas??
Build 7.0.A.1.303
----EDIT----
Working perfectly now. I just installed V13.
Use V13, i restored my phone completely using PC companion, then re-rooted, i can mount /system as RW, replace files etc..all ok.
Worked for me.
I just bought an xperia T and it was sold to me as an unlocked phone. But, it has a locked bootloader( from vodafone uk). I am wondering if its possible to get it unlocked(paid or free) or atleast put a stock sony firmware even if it has locked bootloader? I am new to xperia and I dont know much about flashing..
Thanks.

Read the all in one thread in the Q&A section. All your answers are there.
Briefly.
You can easily get a free unlock and easily root if you dont want to unlock.
You can easily flash stock sony firmware without unlocking or rooting.
Basically read the all in one thread and ask any questions there

Xperia TL locked bootloader
Hi,
I rooted my Xperia TL with a locked bootloader, and I read somewhere that I can only install custom roms which are based on the stock rom. Is there anyway around this?
No

Didn't work on my T with .195, in either normal mode, or 'new' mode.
Also tried to downgrade to 303 but that didn't work either, Flashtool gives an error.
Anyone know if you can use the OTA upgrade to root, and then downgrade back to 195?
You are using the wrong version.

Hi there!
I've unlocked using flashtool, installed CWM Recovery and rooted using the recovery-only root.
Now, I need to return the phone to as stock as possible - certainly removing root, but relocking the bootloader would be a good secondary objective.
My current plan is to use the flashtool to relock the bootloader, then use the PC software to repair the phone. Will this work?
Thanks for your help
Edit: I've searched the forums but can't find an answer, including in the starting thread - please link to a relevant portion instead of the whole thing if possible
Further edit: There's no 'relock' option in the flashtool - huh?

As of now there is no option to relock the bootloader. You can unroot the phone by simply performing a repair system command in Sony PC Companion or flashing a stock rom. This has been explained in every single rooting or custom MOD thread.
Ya you are right. Relock bootloader using flashtool and repair or flash a ftf from flashtool.
And IIRC in the beta version of flashtool u will find option to relock under BLU. And btw u won't get back DRM keys and no Bravia engine.

I don't see the option to relock anywhere - perhaps as I did the unlock on another PC?
If you can't get it to work with PC Companion use SUS (Sony Update Service which you can download from Sony's website) http://www.sonymobile.com/gb/tools/update-service/ --> for UK

Thanks - I expected there to be a separate button for relocking - whoops!
I've flashed the stock ROM and that's gotten rid of the root. It also says that the bootloader can be unlocked, so that seems all perfect as far as I'm concerned. Thanks for your help, ladies and gentlemen.

I thought once you unlock BL it formats the TA partition...?
Ah I give up I'll wait until some easy options.... what I got was you cant backup your TA without root----> You cant root without your BL unlocked ( firmware .253 for now), you will lose BA2 and Drm if you unlock your bootloader.... So the question still rolls how to root your Z tablet with Firmware .253 without unlocking BL ?

maybe because the tablet is still very new, theres not many out there that people have their hands on..
might be best to wait until its been released world wide and a lot more of this is on demand?
perhaps.. does anyone has say .344 or earlier... firmware? I can make my firmware's back up first and then downgrade and then root it, do TA backup for future's sake, and then unlock the bootloader

From what I read, TA needs to be backed up before any BL unlock. once its unlocked the TA partition is gone for good along with the keys...no way of ever getting it back

im happy to unlock BL but I don't want to lose BRAVIA/DRM keys
In general, I would like ask about unlocking my Xperia LT30AT. I've unlocked a phone before but it has been a long time.
I seem to recall that when I unlocked my first phone, I downloaded a developer kit that you use to root and unlock the device. I am interested in doing that to my LT30at, but I don't want to use any custom roms like Cyanogenmod.
What I would like most of all to do: to
(1) root and unlock the phone,
(2) keep the (functionally) authentic Android OS, and
(3) Get all the AT&T apps off the phone for good.
...but I would settle for just the first one, for starters.
Any suggestions? Thanks! MX

it's interesting to me for the same model lt30at.
In addition I wanted to know if you lose your 4G LTE Thanks to all who respond
* P.S. many links to files in the root of the sony t is no longer usable
To root this device you should use the flashtool, you can't unlock bootloader at all. Me I rooted it added a recovery. Then flashed a unbranded firmware via the. Recovery. Kept root that caused everything to work pretty Ok now my att TL is rooted with 4.3 with a few bugs

Since you want the phone to be rooted, you have only 2 options:
1) If you want to stay on 4.1.2: flash any generic 4.1.2 FTF using Flashtool and exclude the baseband in the process, then root the device.
2) If you want to upgrade to 4.3: follow the guide in my signature.
Bootloader cannot be unlocked.

If you update to 4.3 using Flashtool you will lose root access to the device because there is no exploit available yet. Carrier lock is SIM lock and is managed separately from ROMs.

Are you sure it's "bootliader unlock allowed: yes"? LT30at have always come with locked bootloader.
Carrier lock us SIM Lock. As I've said before it's nit affected by any kind of flashing. It's stored in a different location.

Yes , Bootloader unlock allowed in my device is YES . Firmware is 9.1.F.1.120 , android 4.1.2
So can i update my device to 4.3 ?
You're probably the first person I've seen with a TL with at&t firmware (I'm assuming since it's 120 firmware) that has an unlockable bootloader.
Yea I must 2nd that how did that happen

As you're still using a stock based rom, open the dialer and type *#*#7378423#*#*
This will open the service menu, check under general service info (if I remember correctly). You'll find there whether or not your bootloader is unlocked.
Download flashtool by androxyde and the rom you want to flash (you'll find it here on the forum) and flash it via flashtool.
If your bootloader is unlocked, lock it with flashtool (though it won't make any difference as I'm pretty sure you didn't back up your DRM keys)

by installing stock rom i meant to say android 5.1.1 firmware..
and in that service menu it says
bootloader unlocked allowed:yes..
so does it means i have alrady unlocked or it is locked and unlocking is allowed?

It means your bootloader is unlockable, but currently locked. You do still have your TA partition and DRM keys. To install stock 5.1.1 you can also use sony pc companion, it should be the easiest way. All your current data might be lost, though
