For stock roms u dont need to unlock. Only if u want to flash a custom kernel f.e. for cm12 u will need a unlocked bootloader

Bootloader
will the bootloader remain locked if I flash this?
and if yes, will rooting still affect anything like performance, camera, etc negatively?
thanks

If you flash a rooted ROM you'll be rooted. If you flash an unrooted ROM (and a stock ROM is unrooted), you'll still have to root.
Kingo is a lot easier than flashing a ROM is all you want to accomplish is rooting. Flash a ROM if it's different than the ROM you're running, and you want those differences. (If you're at NB4, use Kingo 1.5 or earlier, the latest one (1.6, IIRC) won't do NB4.)

Cant get into recovery
Hello, and thanks for helping me!
I have the 283. Stock Sony ROM and Stock Sony Kernel. I flashed the recovery for the 283. with command lines in linux. after I flashed it it booted perfectly well except that the LED light doesnt appear. I tried to get into any recovery but it just doesnt work.
Have you got any solution? did it happened to you?
Please help me!
Thank you!
If the boot.img was flashed successfuly then you would definitely see a blue LED and feel a double vibration when rebooting.
Your bootloader needs to be unlocked, you need to be in fastboot mode and you need to use this command
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img

Maybe you are not following the instructions right.. You need to ODIN flash the firmware. Then boot into custom recovery and flash the deodex zip. Its not one or the other.. You need both
Also, Lollipop takes a good ten mins if not longer to boot..
just wondering?
I'm little confused, Do i need to be rooted already to flash this rom? or can I flash this in Odin direct from unrooted stock 5.0.1?
No you don't need to be rooted to flash over odin. Go ahead and enjoy the upgrade and root privilege

New unknown update available. Anybody installed it? No idea if root is available..

I installed it this morning. It adds an "close all" button to the active apps list and the led is working now even in silent mode.
afaik the only option to root (especially with locked bootloader) is to downgrade to 23.0.A.0.93, root your device and than upgrade while retaining your root access.

I have rooted 23.1.A.0.690 iwth working system rw and recovery. Should I do the OTA update, or will I lose all the goodies? If no, how should I proceed?

pretty sure I read that the OTA update will remove root access.
The update will remove root no matter if it OTA or through computer, click here to go to a thread with pre rooted zips for this firmware
