i was on .569 fw before and i try to update it to the latest fw which is .283 using pc companion. after i try to update it, it says update failed. it is because i rooted and unlocked my bootloader before.
so i relocked my bootloader and flash stock .569.ftf using flashtool. and try to update to .283 using pc companion again. it finally worked. i succesfully upgraded my phone to the latest fw .283.
but then i realised root is gone, and i cant access cwm reovery when phone boots and pressing volume down button over and over again.
so i guess my cwm recovery is gone too.
so since im on fresh stock .283 fw, i need someone to give me a cwm recovery for me to flash on fastboot mode using flashtool.
and can i root .283 just by flashing superuser.zip that i flashed on .269 to root .283?
thanks in advance. i need it urgent though.

You will need to flash .230 kernel then root using any method mentioned ( like towel root) then re-flash the .283 kernel. once you have root, you can flash NUT's recovery for your phone. you can not directly flash. you will need to use computer to run recovery batch file

So I got updated to .101 firmware when my phone returned from repairs from the Sony centre. However, I'm unable to flash the .67 ftf in flashtool to downgrade and obtain root :/ It simply says that my phone is connected in flashmode and nothing happens after that, followed by disconnecting my device after a short while. I'm unable to flash the flashable zip in recovery due to some error to try and upgrade from the .434 firmware where I actually get root. Now I'm stuck on .101 firmware and I can't get root since I'm still using a locked bootloader

well it should work properly,i also flash the .67 ftf & root it then flash a pre-rooted ROM.
show the screenshot of the flashtool errors.
There aren't even any errors, it just says device in flashmode and nothing happens after that :/

Select the FTF you want to flash and only connect your device in flashmode when prompted. A flash has never failed for me that way.

Yes that's what I do always but ever since my phone came back from repairs, it's been like that. Flashing the .434 ftf works perfectly fine though.

Just downgrade to .534 through flashtool and use nuts dual recovery installer then flash any of the latest rom from the development section.
Dowgrade via Flashtool, Install DualRecovery then install the Pre-Rooted FTF .757 from Here:

If if you are not able to, you can always flash stock ftf file from here:

i tried to install on previous ftf (forgot which one) and it works, however, new custom roms required .157
