1.) if you flash recovery in fastbot you no longer have a rom installed.
2) No need to root if youhave unlocked bootloader, just flash an unsecure kernel.
To fix this, flash my kernel (Follow the link in my signature) then flash the rom of your choice in recovery
EDIT
Please search before posting and please post in the correct section
now im downloading kitkat 4.4.4 to flash and then i will root with the new tool ,, i need to what is the next step to flash recovery and custom firmware and mods
i read about dual recovery , fastboot ,flashtool , boot loader , unlock boot loader but i dont understantd so if anyone can help me in this !!
If you root with the newtool it will install recovery as well.
Dual recovery is just a recovery package that gives you the option of 3 recoveries
You do not need to unlock the bootloader to get recovery, but you do if you want to flash a custom kernel.

From the development section yes.
If you want to flash custom roms from the original development section you need to unlock the bootloader

yes you can flash custom rom base on sony stock, not AOSP (CM, PA, AOKP...)
i didnt get it !! what is the difference ? and how to unlock boot and is it dangerous ?
The difference is the kernel. Locked bootloaders will not boot on a custom kernel. In order to unlock your bootloader just Google "Sony unlock bootloader "
Sent from my C6903 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
ok what i lose if i unlocked bootloader ? and is it easy to lock it again or factory reset ?
I unlocked my device as soon as i opened it and flashed a custom recovery. Now I cant find the firmware files to restore my stock recovery to update my device to the newest bootloader version.

Will restoring Firmware bring back Stock rom ? or it would just remove root access from custom rom ?
