Hello
Have somebody tried to root their Z3 compact with locked bootloader using Kingo root app?
Just asking. I don't own Z3 compact but i would like to hear if everyone had tried to root their Z3 compact with locked bootloader.

nope
i just tried it with the newest firmware.
it just says ''waiting for device'', then downloading required dependency files'', and ''checking root status'' over and over again.
after 10 minutes the phone restarted, but that's it. no luck.

Hello developers, I am considering to root my new Xperia Z1, but I don't want to unlock the boot loader. I was just wondering if I use vroot to root the Z1 but without unlocking the boot loader, will it avoid my Sony original warranty? Thanks. My firmware is 14.1.G.2.257

Well it may or it may not. You can just easily reflash stock firmware and root will be gone anyway. Done it once and they never suspected anything

In almost all cases you can restore your phone back to it's original state so they will never know, in the case when your phone is so bad that you can't restore it back with PC Companion or flashtool then you are still good because the service place will not be able to tell either, because your phone will not be booting at all .
i had my xperia z1 rooted in the past and after the update i lost the root, i tried using the easy root xperia tool but unfortunately it doesn't work now, my phone is locked to rogers, and also has a locked boot loader is there any way i can root this now?, or do i have to wait for a root to come out.

As it says in the title, and I do apologize if that has already been mentioned: is it possible to install twrp or cwm and root the Xperia Z3 Compact on Lollipop 5.1.1 whilst keeping the bootloader locked?
Cheers.

hello I also have an xperia with the bootloader blocked that can not be unlocked.
What you have to do is to downgrade with flashtool looking for the software of your model, after you have already done the downgrade you can root with kingoroot for desktop and you can install the recovery I recommend the dual here they say how to do it.
if you are looking for a rom here there are some for bootloader blocked greetings.
