But, don't have another thing to do without downgrading the android version?

after downgrade you can also use CWM to flashing anything you like. Flashing XperimenT 1.7.1 is the best way after you root your device.

Incorrect, you can use flashtool to flash stock FTF's from Sony.

[ROM][TX][STOCK] 7.0.A.3.212_Rooted

Hello Guys...This is a stock rooted (CF SuperSU) with busybox rom for LT29i.
The Rom is pretty stock. Only modifications were to root and zipalign the rom. As there are not loads of stock roms in .zip for the TX i though i'd give it a go for those who want a stock rooted rom
Click Here to Download For Odexed ¦ Click here to Download for Deodexed
Installation Instuctions:
1) Downgrade to ealiest 1.307 Rom by flashing an FTF (Obivously backup anything first) through flashtool
2) Root using Bin4ry's method
3) Flash CWM for Locked Bootloader (am using a version 6.0..x.x)
4) Install Zip from SD Card my Rom you downloaded from CWM
5) Install Zip from SD Card a flashable version of CWM
6)Flash This after flashing rom otherwise your phone will keep rebooting if you try to edit system files (Thanks to Sharaz22 for this link and Leo for reporting the issue and solution)
7) Flash a 3.212 FTF through Flashtool again (exclude everthing except kernel). This will get you back to latest kernel
1.307 FTF, 3.212 FTF, bin4ry's root method and CWM installation can be found in Gregbradley's all in one thread in Q&A
For those already having root and CWM on an earlier version you need only start from step 4
Credits:
Thanks to Gregbradley for this precious help...this was my first time cooking :good:
Thanks to Dogsly for this 3.212 FTF from which this Rom was extracted
Thanks to all other persons who helped indirectly
Disclaimer
This goes without saying. I will not be responsible for a bricking, damage or explosions that may happen
I hope that you guys enjoy it...Hit thanks if you do

Well done, glad you finally got there with this and glad I could help

Hi,
I have stock 212 and unlocked bootloader and Advanced Stock Kernel V5 (from here, I thought that with installing that kernel I would have root on 212.. wrong).
Since I got already CWM, can I just flash your ROM or do I need to follow all the steps from OP?
Thanks!

[Q] How to root from 9.1.A.1.141 ?

Hello,
Can somedy explain me how to root my lt30p with stock JB 9.1.A.1.141 ?

currently the only way is to unlock your bootloader.
But you could try flashing the .140 stock kernel, rooting using bin4rys method, then flashing the .141 kernel back. I have heard people talk about that method but not heard anyone say it has been successful yet

so easy
i've got a tool
i can email to you
i am freshman here
i cant reply direct link

From the last threads, If I understand well, I guess the best method method is the following :
1- To come back to .140
2- To root it with Bin4ry's method
3- To install the .141 rooted and deodexed proposed by TiMiN8R
Am I right ?

Yes, after rooting though you need to install recovery for locked bootloader in irder to flash the .141 .zip from Timin8r

no, just flash a .140 ftf from the all in one thread using flashtool
EDIT but if you are doing that to root it, there is no need, just use the latest doomlord version to root on .141

[Q] Xperia Z1 C6903 Vodaphone, Bootloader unlock : not allowed. How to ?

Dear All,
First i thank you for you huge contribution to human needs in this planet ! You Rock dear community.
I'm more a reader than a contributor in most forums, i usually find the answers only by searching other people posts, but this time i couldn't find an answer .
I have an Xperia Z1 C6903, Vodaphone (i guess from spain), running Kitkat 4.4.2 with latest firmware 14.3.A.0.757.
I was trying to root it, i red practically all the methods here in the forums & elsewhere, and there was always one step that i couldn't bypass : UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER.
I took my code from Sony website, i tried many methods in vain. In my Phone it shows of course : Bootloader unlocking allowed : NO
My question is very simple : Is there on earth (even on other planets i can take the trip) any method to unlock my bootloader ?
Thanking you All in advance, and apologizing if this question is already answered in another topic, i really couldn't find it.
Awaiting your Help Dear Community.
Best Regards,

NO! There is no way to unlock it, there is no way around. Sony will generate the Code from your IMEI anyway but if will not work. Do not even try on Earth to find a way because there is not.

There is absolutely no need to unlock the bootloader in order to root.
Which is good news for you because you cannot unlock anyway.
In order to get root on the latest firmware then you just need to follow the link in my signature

@gregbradley, excuse my question, but have you done this before on unlocked Z1 ? i mean will have full access to my phone ? (Install Super user, Titanium backup ... etc etc )
Thnaks Again.

once or twice
Just follow the 3 steps in the link
There is no need to unlock the bootloader, no need to backup TA partition (You only do that id you are unlocking the bootloader anyway), no need to use any dodgy rooting methods (Like Vroot etc)
Flash a 534 FTF
Install dual recovery
Flash a pre rooted rom
Takes about 10 minutes

Hello Again,
Done ! The method worked for me, my Z1 is fully rooted now even with my locked bootloader ! Thanks again
Only, and for those reading this post, specially Xperia Z1 C6903 owners, for step one you have to pick a specific FTF file and not any FTF ending with 534, The only one working (and gaining you Root access later on the process) is FW 14.1.G.1.534
Although you are on a recent FW, don't worry, after accomplishing the other steps, you will be back to the latest one.
N.B i tried many of the FTF ending with 534, but it didn't work except for FW 14.1.G.1.534
Cheers.

If you do not know what to do after rooting I must question your reasons on why you want to root.
However, you may want to do it to learn about android and that is good enough.
There are numerous guides and how to posts in order to gain root on that FW, one of them is linked in my signature. There are now more direct ways to do it, but the one in my signature is good enough. Try that, it will mean some reading and learning, but that the joy in the journey

please search a little too. Anyways, wait for the latest update for ur phone. That will install 4.4.4 on your device and your build number will end with 108. Once you get that update rooting ur device becomes really easy. There is easy root tool available. Just download and start that program in ur PC and follow the onscreen instructions. Again, that will work only on 4.4.4 so wait till then.

You can do it. For that you need to flash an older 534 rom, root it and then install dual recovery and then flash the latest rom. I dont know why you are in such a hurry.
