How can Root Xperia Z1 C6902 Lollipop 5.1.1 without pre-rooted rom. Is there other methods to root my Xperia Z1 C6902 Lollipop 5.1.1 . My xperia is installed with orginal Lollipop 5.1.1 stock rom. I want to root it. But i don't need Pre-rooted Rom, is there any method for rooting it. And also i don't want to downgrade it for rooting.
wait till kingroot
either unlock your bootloader or wait for a exploit
I really hope not.
Every Android version has a root exploit, that is a nightmare for security, this has to stop...
just my 2cents, in general you should be glad if there is none
Are you sure you have access to /system ?
Kingroot is not compatible with z1 5.1.1 yet

No there isn't. towelroot is super old and doesn't work with 5.1.1, and there is no one-click method for 5.1.1 on the Z1. Only pre-rooted flashable zips are working right now.
Please don't give advice if you don't actually know what you're talking about ...
@ubrider you don't need to be rude - I suggest you delete your comment for your own sake.
As of the moment, there are no known 1-click root process for Xperia Z1 running 5.1.1 Lollipop. You can however downgrade your phone to Kitkat by flashing a Kitkat FTF using Flashtool. You can also downgrade to 5.0.2 and root it using Kingroot which is a 1-click rooting process. Once you have gained root access you can replace Kingroot with SuperSU if you want, install a custom recovery then install a pre-rooted 5.1.1
@ubrider, If you have solid proof that there really is an existing 1-click root process for our Xperia Z1 running 5.1.1., please share it to the community. This is what I get: https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=Sony+Xperia+Z1+5.1.1+root
Please, stay on topic. If you don't have anything constructive or polite to contribute, do not post. If you have a problem with another user, please ignore them, use the report button and allow the moderators to handle it, or deal with it yourselves via private message.
You can create your own pre-rooted 5.1.1 firmware with prf creator, from yours ftf. Then flash back to 5.0.2 without wiping data root with any oneclickroot solution that suits you and have a superuser or supersu.
And install xzdualrecovery. Then flash your pre-rooted firmware w/o wiping data.
This way you won't lose your apps data and won't need to unlock bootloader.
That was what I did installed xposed etc. No problems faced.
Or you can wait till kingroot updates it's all up to you
Finally the one click method is here.....
Guys Kingroot has finally Released the root exploit for Xperia Z1 c6902....i am not sure about c6903....

I apologise if this is previously sorted out, but I am pretty new to the xperia lineup(2nd day).
I have a C6902 with build number 14.1.G.1.531(android version 4.2.2)
Can I use bin4ry's tool to root?
And then directly use the XZdualrecovery installer?
At present I do not wish to unlock the bootloader neither upgrade to kitkat, but want to try stock based custom 4.3(flashplayer! Yay!) JB. Will iHackers 3.0 be installed without loosing root and the dual recovery?

Anyone?

I'm not sure about the bin4ry thing but there are many ways u can root on z1 since it's on .531
maybe vroot or king root
yes, then u can install dualrecovery and go for iHackers 3.0, your dualrecovery will be still here after installing

Late reply, but to be exact: There is a Locked Bootloader CWM available for the E1. I can no longer find it here on XDA, but I have the installer. I modified it myself because the script didn't quite work for me. But you still can't install it without root, so it's kinda useless.
In order to root, you either flash CWM (unlocked BL) or you flash back the .0.47 kernel, root, then flash the 2.13 or 2.14 kernel back. There's no other way known yet.

the app is: System app remover
no since you have rooted your phone you wont be able to update via OTA, you can only use pc companion and flashtool

Hello People Can Any One Tell Me If Theres A Way To Root The Xperia Z1 With The Last Firmware 5.11 Without Downgrade To 5.0.2
kingroot ?
As of the moment, there are no know root procedures for 5.1.1 that have been posted in the Xperia Z1 General section other than pre-rooted FTFs downloaded using XperiFirm through Flashtool. Although - if my memory serves me right - I think I read somewhere here that if you have an unlocked bootloader, you shouldn't really have to worry about rooting as apparently it is easy to get root access. I really haven't explored the part of unlocked bootloaders even though I have a phone that I can unlock my bootloader though to be honest.

I am new to xda and this is my first post.
I found this thread very helpful but am stock right now...I want to root my xz1 already on 5.1.1, right now I have both ftf files of 5.0.2 and 5.1.1.
My problem now is...how do I create a pre rooted 5.1.1 from the ftf file? And does installing a pre rooted firmware gives all the privileges such as installing fonts?..I'd greatly appreciate your assistance.

You have to use a Windows prog called PRF Creator. With it you can created your pre rooted zip file.
The pre rooted zip file will give you root privileges to your phone. With root you can basically do whatever you want.
To flash the zip you need a working custom recovery on your phone.
