I got a crap ton of micro usb cables so that won't be an issue! so if you say USB port do you mean the one on the pc or on the phone itself?

Most likely the computer/laptop.
If you have more ports use another one On PC prefferd one on the backside of the computer (Due to direct contact with motherboard) and laptop doesnt matter (all of these ports are directly connected with the motherboard of the laptop)

Strange since the script says "Device detected: C5303 (12.0.A.1.257)"
I have a locked bootloader since I read that it shouldn't be a problem
EDIT: Even more strange. Now after the second time doing this my phone seem to be rooted. Will try to flash 2.254
Sometimes it takes 2 goes to flash successfully

the log says that all is going well. What were you flashing and with what ?????????? try to explain a bit????
The phone has switched on. Switch off and try again.
Gaining root for xperia z through flashtool doesn't work as far as i know (might also depend on which firmware you are)
Just disconnect and stop rooting through flashtool. Use the new root method that is described multiple times in general already.

easy root
go to www.towelroot.com on phone. Hit the lamda sign and download the root.apk. Open the apk and hit run. It rooted my phone in seconds. 4.4.2 locked bootloader
Dear all,
I just wanted to confirm, that towelroot works perfectly, no trouble, no drawbacks.
And installation of SuperSU and busybox worked smoothly.
Done 2 days ago, with Experia Z (C6603) and 4.4.2.
And just to let you know, I am a "newbee" in this exercise(s).
Started to root and work with China phones (coolpad 7205 A and C), now starting to work with my Xperia Z..

[Q] Can't root Xperia V with 9.2.A.2.5!

I have the latest Flashtool installed, and both my V's are updated to 9.2.A.2.5, with the boot loaders unlocked on both.
I rooted both of them before the update (can't recall how I did it or where I got the information.) Now one of them is rooted and running Avast Antitheft; no problems there. The other, however, just won't root. Using the latest flashtool, which installs TowelRoot on the phone, the phone reboots right after I press the "make it ra1n" button, indicating failure to root.
Here's the log I keep getting in Flashtool:

And it just goes on and on like this. What am I missing or doing wrong?
SOLVED!
SOLVED! Here's how it turned out:
I found this...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2798411
... which didn't work - at the first few attempts:
a. Installing Towelroot from internal storage using the built-in file manager seemed to be in conflict with... well, Towelroot being already installed.
b. Chainfire's superSU kept giving me an error message.
So I figured I should uninstall both using the phone's app manager and try the instructions in the link above from scratch, and voila! Here's the log:

LT25i noob
Please help me out...I have been searching this forum for 3 days now and cannot find a straight forward answer, every thread says something different and I am confused as hell now!
I have the LT25i on 9.2.A.2.5, bootloader locked, but unlockable, and not rooted.
How do I unlock bootloader, and root, so that I can flash a custom rom?
Solved
I have actually just managed to get this all sorted...unlocked bootloader using flashtool and rooted by following steps here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2798411&highlight=unlocked
If only I could have found that thread 3 days ago!

Wow excellent advice...do you think I just stumbled across all the threads I read accidentally?
It is extremely difficult for someone rooting a different phone for the first time to know exactly what to type in the search bar to get the correct info.
There is not an up to date all-in-one thread for XV noobs
