Can't find it!

A good place to start looking for how to root is in any sticky threads in the general section or in the development section.
If you had looked in the original development section, you would have found this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2327472

Thank You very much. It helped. I also have one last question. I have installed CMW-Based Recovery v6.0.2.8
How can i cancel the sideload option? It says sideload started. I have accidentally chosen for that option and now it says "Sideload started..."
What do i need to do to cancel this??

[Q] How to root an Xperia TX???

So yea, I'm looking everywhere on how to root an Xperia TX. I admit I'm a bit of a noob but I just want to root my phone. I previously had an Optimus One and I successfully rooted that and applied a custom recovery loader along with a custom ROM aswell so I'm not a complete noob.
Every where I look, the website is either not reliable or the guide is for the Xperia T or V. I'm a little worried about following an Xperia T guide so I just wanted to ask what would be best to do or if anyone has a guide that they can link me to?
Thanks in advance.
I have to say, I am really enjoying the community even though this is my first time posting.

Still a little unsure, it says nothing about the TX and I dont exactly know about firmwares and such.

First.
Remove the mention of the app from the OP. Any mention of warez etc is banned from xda.
Secondly.
Just follow the instructions to root.
If you are on newer firmware 195 or 223 then flash a TX firmware that is 303 (Or equivalent)
Then use bin4rys method to root, then the method to update back to newer firmware whilst keeping root. Its all in that thread.
Same for me, it wasn't clear in that thread.

You just saved me and my phones life I just ordered a TL29i and it will arrive next week. First order of business is to root! Do these come with a locked bootloader? I know Sony has a website to unlock it for "developers."
It depends, I would have asked the people I was getting it from before you ordered it... Beyer hope it is otherwise there is no unofficial way to unlock yet

How do I customise the signature on xda premium app?

Did you ever get your LT29i (TX) rooted successfully? Just un-boxed mine and charging it before I even try rooting it. Any tips or advice on reading through all those threads?

NO you HAVEN'T! Look in the general section, on the same page you started this thread on, or type your thread title into Google, then you'll see it's quite clear you haven't.

Then you have to wait for an exploit.

I want to be able to unlock my bootloader, but starting another thread about bootloader unlocking however isn't going to achieve it, so unless yours is, then you're stuck with the current methods.

[Q] Help rooting my xperia z

Hey guys, I don't normally post questions like this without going through the forums and sticky threads first but there is just so much info. and stuff going around that it's just confusing me. And i am a total newb when it comes to phones and rooting and unlocking bootloaders and stuff. So i was hoping if you guys can bear with my utter noobness and help me out a little.
I have a xperia Z C6602 on android 4.2.2 and build number 10.3.A.0.423
I am wanting to root the phone, so if someone can point me in the right direction that would be really helpful.
Thanks in advance

6606 Z help

Hello, I picked up my Tmobile Z last week, I've decided to root it and getting ready to install a recovery, not sure what one yet.My question is and sorry if it has already been answered. I am trying to install a 4.2.2. Rom. From what I am understanding i have to flash a stock firmware from a 6603, please correct me if that's wrong? I've looked at a few but not sure what one I should be flashing. If anyone could point me in the right direction or give me some info it would be much helpful . I'm not new to flashing roms etc this is just my first locked down Sony I'm doing it on.

This is better posted in the general section. If you are already on 4.2.2 stock then you don't need to flash the stock Rom. Just install dual recovery ( instructions on the relevant thread) back up current Rom and flash whatever 4.2.2 custom Rom you want.

It was a little confusing for me too at first.. But yeah, flash for the c6603. Use the firmware stuff in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42917602
The op also links to the other tools you'll need.. Just read through that stuff carefully and you'll be fine.

Yes It kept lte. didn't need to mess with any apns or anything... It Just works like it should.
Word of advice though... In the update, under xperia settings in the settings menu, there is an option to download apns for your carrier.. Don't do it. It wipes T-Mobile's lte apn and you have to remake it... I learned that the hard way...
