[Q] Rooting Issues

Hi,
Im trying to root my xperia z1 with 4.3
im using vroot and the guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2439328
For some reason it asks me to let it do a full restore, i have backed up so i did wat i think it meant (dont speak chinese)
then after that instead of a tick it shows a cross and it obviously hasnt rooted the device?
What am i doing wrong?!
Thanks

You didn't do anything wrong, but currently Android 4.3 cant be rooted. if you want root, you have to flash 257 then 534 then root and OTA update to 257. and if you get OTA to the 290 android 4.3 you might keep root.

Do you know when root will be available for 4.3?

You can root, but you need to flash custom boot.img first. Just follow steps on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2573921

One of the 1st rules in XDA: Don't ask for ETAs
You must follow the threads and see, if one dev find a solution to root locked bootloader for 4.3. But take a look in the Xperia Z1 Android Development section. Or this thread, there a lot of hints and howtos for root.

Sorry I'm new! thanks for the tip!!

Yes. It's out finally but so late.

Question
Does this fw also contain bugs from the previously released same version of the ROM for rest of the world? I mean bugs like battery eaten by Google play services and Slacky settings, over all poor performance by ROM?

I haven't updated to this firmware yet, so don't know yet.

What about official updates if we flash this ROM? Will we get updates like 4.4.3 / 4.4.4?

you can receive official update as this ftf file is made from official file from sus provided your are not rooted and bootloader is locked

Bro do you have previous ftf files for 4.3/4.2.2/4.1 ?

Ok thanks

It worked great for me, also solved some issues regarding BT audio. I'm having similar issues with a Z, guess I'll have to do the same as well.

There's this thread of firmwares:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/list-stock-firmwares-d5803-d5833-t2906706
But I don't know how to tell one from another. My country isn't actually in this list and I bought the unlocked international version from Sony.

You can find this on the forums or search on google
