I just bought a new Sony Xperia Z1S for my daughter but I don't see Z1S in this forum. Would it be the same as Z1 ? If I need to root the the phone, can i use the resource from this Z1 forum.

you have to root and install recovery from 14.4.B.0.37 without deodexing the system then update via OTA to 14.4.B.0.56 , then you should be all set, easyroot works for 14.4.B.0.37 btw, and lockedbootloader dual recovery by nutt

[A]Some noob question about Z1s

Root z3 5.1.1

Hi guys can you please tell me how to or were to look if i want to root my sony xperia z3 5.1.1 firmware 23.4.a.1.200
thanks in advance
Maybe you'll be more successful when you ask/search in the correct forum for Z3. This is Z4/Z3+, which neither has a 5.1.1 firmware, nor is it rootable without unlocking the bootloader.
Cheers
Kingroot will root the Z3 now. But as Silent_simmal said, this isn't the correct forum.

Xperia Z1 Docomo (Japan) - How to upgrade firmware?

I have bought a used xperia z1 docomo so 01f. It's the same as any other Z1 except it's from a japanese carrier. It is running on jellybean 4.2.2, i wish to upgrade it to lollipop 5.1.1.
OTA is not working obviously. I can't seem to find much help regarding the upgrade on the internet either.
I'm now thinking about flashing a american carrier rom on it via flash tool (atnt, tmobile, etc). Would that work?
Otherwise the other option would be to flash a lollipop custom rom...
Any help would be appreciated.
