This isn't an Xperia question and will have been answered many times before elsewhere. Short answer is you will need root.

If you're rooted then use Titanium back up, if you're on 4.3 and you don't have use of full root then that may be an issue, but otherwise, this works perfectly.

No. I don't think we need close the update access.
I'm giving this a try: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.projectvoodoo.otarootkeeper&hl=en
Worked fine in the past with my HTC EVO. It says it will work with anything that runs ext4 (the kindle does).

Yes we do, to keep root. My kindle is set up perfectly for what i want it for and dont want amazon to be able to mess with my kindle. I was hoping it was as easy as adding .bak and the end of some file.

It's true, if they have a ota you will get an notification about it and then you choose to install it or not, if you don't install it there is only a notification nothing else

It may be that OTA RootKeeper will allow over the air updates, and still let you keep root.

It certainly may have changed, but this isn't how it worked with the original KF. When Amazon pushed OTAs they automatically updated the the os. There wasn't even a notification that they were sending the update. I remember watching my KF turn on all by itself and then reboot while wondering what the heck was going on.

This appears to be a conundrum which many have tried to solve on supported (and un-supported) devices. I have searched high and low and have yet to find anybody with a working solution.

I used OTA Rootkeeper on my Nexus 7 with Sky Go and it worked fine, esentially temp unroot, and then use 'Root Checker' to see if your phone is actually unrooted. Make sure you fully close the Sky Go app and then try, it works for me. I'll test on my One and post the results in a bit
Edit: Just tried it, didn't work I'm afraid, hopefully another solution will appear soon!
Try this, it's what I have to do to get time warner live tv to work.
Go into system/app and rename superuser to SuperSU.
Next, go into the build.prop and there should be something that says build tags. It should say under that, "release-keys". Delete the words release-keys, leaving that part blank. Reboot. Should work if it's the same root checks as time warner.

Does this remove the root at all or will it still function the same and just pass the check?
Should just pass the root check. Root still remains.

Well I guess all you would need is the apk and side load it. I use dolphin chrome was great at first but little things bother me like the double tap zoom in sucks. And the last update made it run like ****. I like my bookmarks being synced but then again it really isn't that big of a deal.
Can someone get the apk up? Not having extended controls is horrible. Is there another browser that has edge swiping to control browser?

I still can't seem to get the stock browser to install. Tried placing the file in system/app and data/app... Installed once and I saw the browser at one point then every subsequent launch of the app was met with a "unfortunately..." Crash message. Ugh. I've been dying to get a competent browser on this phone. Guess I'll need to keep waiting.

Make sure you set the permissions correctly. Once installed, clear data/cache on it before you run it.
Would this work with Adobe flash installation

What do you mean "set the permissions correctly"? I'm not modifying the permissions with anything, and it sets its own permissions upon installation.
I installed again and cleared data, brought up the signing into google screen then it crashes. Can't seem to get it to stay opened.
Works beautifully!

Could I get a little instruction here?
I've downloaded the above Browser.apk. I've tried installing it from the downloads folder. Fails. Tried pasting it into /data/app, can't install. Pasting into /system/app, can't install. Tried root app installer. It installs and initially loads with the "signing into gmail" popup. Then crashes and crashes every subsequent launch immediately.
I'm dying to get this browser on the phone. Pleeeeeaaaase, can I have some installation instructions?

Yep, confirmed via root checker. And I did wait for a minute after boot for it to register root as jcase said that it doesn't Register su for a few seconds or something, in case you were going to ask about that.

I find this very annoying. Let's say i reset my phone, or install a new rom. Once i log in the play store just goes ahead and installs all the apps it thinks i want.
Is there anyway to stop this?

Playstore>options>auto update apps
Google Play Auto Update Apps ...
Here is the screen shot ...
Just follow these steps ...
After you factory reset phone, while you are logging in to google account, wizard asks to you, 'do you want to backup restore settings' mostly no body reads like these things and accept automatically. So market re install all applications from market again.
If you untick that setting, you will not get applications.
But do not forget, if you untick backup/restore. Your wifi settings will not restore either.

Thank you. I found this very helpful. It seems like a weird combination of options to me though. I would like to auto update apps, but i would also like to pick my own when starting with a fresh rom. Can't win them all!
Then, just thick restore everything, after that cancel all updates from play store.

No offense, but if you can't download a file off the Internet:
A) you shouldn't be rooting and deleting stuff
B) i'm not going to have the patience to help you.
Sorry, but downloading a zip file from the Internet is really, really basic stuff.
