I was playing around with 4.3 last night and found a solution
- Flash the .67 firmware via flashtool
- Root 4.2 as you would have
- Backup the TA partition and Unlock your bootloader to relock the boot loader and avoid losing any DRM keys later
- Using flashtool flash the new firmware .569 (4.3)
- Then flash Doomlords advanced stock kernel
- Boot 4.3 and power down
- Using the recovery installed with the kernel flash a superSU.zip from somewhere around here.
- Reboot and you now should have root
- Reflash ONLY the .569 kernel from the FTF
- Power on and Restore your TA partition to relock your boot loader and return everything back to normal with root

You can't backup the TA after you unlock the bootloader!
It's the unlocking that kills the DRM keys.

Hi, i'm facing problem that i didn't make any backup of TA Partition. since unlocking the bootloader lost the bravia engine, is there any way for me to get it back (the bravia engine)? i noticed that the bravia still work for youtube's video, but not for picture.
thanks before

Stop asking the same question in every thread regarding root.
I already answered you in another thread.
The answer is no.

Totally agree with kingvortex
Do you think there is way to root 4.3 on locked boot loader without sticky thread or at least thread on the top list ?
No way right now to root 4.3 locked and when it will be found you will find a lot of propaganda & at least sticky thread for this in The Developer section .
So please Keep Calm and wait..

I don't get it ... so you are saying that you unlocked your unlockable bootloader? And you managed to root the latest update? That would be cool! But if I am not mistaken there's absolutely no way of unlocking a bootloader that is not allowed to be unlocked by the device. Anyways that would be cool if the devs give us this nice gift! But then again I am unaware that you can unlock the 4.3 as yet.

but what about your BRAVIA2/DRM keys???
I thought once you unlock BL it formats the TA partition...?
Ah I give up I'll wait until some easy options.... what I got was you cant backup your TA without root----> You cant root without your BL unlocked ( firmware .253 for now), you will lose BA2 and Drm if you unlock your bootloader.... So the question still rolls how to root your Z tablet with Firmware .253 without unlocking BL ?

maybe because the tablet is still very new, theres not many out there that people have their hands on..
might be best to wait until its been released world wide and a lot more of this is on demand?
perhaps.. does anyone has say .344 or earlier... firmware? I can make my firmware's back up first and then downgrade and then root it, do TA backup for future's sake, and then unlock the bootloader

From what I read, TA needs to be backed up before any BL unlock. once its unlocked the TA partition is gone for good along with the keys...no way of ever getting it back

BtW does any one has the old firmware before or .344 or is it 334 where goroh_kuns rooting works??

im happy to unlock BL but I don't want to lose BRAVIA/DRM keys
Hi everyone!
After searching for rooting newest firmware of 12.1.A.0.266 with LB, I found that it may be impossible without unlocking my BL. So I decided to unlock BL & root it via DooMLord's method and relock again. But I have a few questions.
I heard it's important to backup my TA partition before unlocking so I do a search for it. So I found that root permission is needed for backup TA. Since firmware 12.1.A.0.266 cannot be rooted, I have to downgrade to Android 4.1 and root it by DooMLord's method. It's all OK for me.
But I need to know, if I do restore my TA backup that taken while running Android 4.1, on my newest firmware 12.1.A.0.266, can it be conflicted that lasting bootloop or bricking my device? And relocking my device will it definitely lock my BL to factory status? Please be kind to help me with these questions. :good:
Thank you all :laugh:

No restoring TA wont cause bootloop but to be extra sure you can first flash 4.1.2 restore TA and flash 4.3..

My friend,
Thanks for helping me! :good:
If I restore TA mean I'm relocking my BL. So if I flashed 4.3 again I cannot gain root access coz it cannot root without unlocked BL. Am I correct?
So how can I root 4.3, if I flash 4.3 over 4.1.2 as root is lost after flashing a new firmware.
Thank & Regards! :good:
You need to root on 4.1.2, install CWM. Download and flash a 4.3 ROM and last flash 2.266 kernel
But there are proper threads for this xD

Yes brother..... I see several threads that explaining how to do that. But I wanted to root official firmware by unlocking BL.
If I restore TA, should I relock BL after that or, first relock BL then restore TA?
Thanks!

To make it easy, unlock using flashtool. It'll automatically make a TA backup. Later when you're done flashing stock kernel you can easily click relock and it'll restore TA and relock it for you as easy as 123.

Bro,
Is that unlocking BL via Flashtool exactly same as unlocking via official Sony method? If I unlocked BL besides official method, can I relock it again successfully? And so, since official method needs to device connected with Fastboot mode, but Flachtool needs device connected via Flashmode to Unlock/Relock BL. Why is the different with this methods? Pls kindly explain this......

Yess absolutely the same. I'm not sure about relocking it after using the official method but I think restoring the TA key actually means relocking it. Well actually you will need to fastboot on flashtool right after the flashmode. There is no difference in result. It's just an alternative way to unlock and relock. Unlocking using official Sony method is the old way of unlocking. Flashtool is just to make it easier and simpler. The result will be the same. But be sure that you make the TA backup before unlocking it for the worst case scenario not to be able to relock it

if losing Warranty is not a problem to You then Yes, it's the quickest way. Doing this you will be unable to do a Backup TA so your DRM keys will be lost forever with the warranty.

I unlocked on 4.3 and Camera, Track ID working. X-Reality turn On and Off but I never, even when I was stock, saw any difference. So if you want unlock on 4.3 (FW .136) it's ok.
1stly i have 4.4.2 (.757) running on my z1 and i downgraded to .534 and i rooted the device by vroot and backed up the DRM keys successfully.. and then i flashed to .290 and unlocked the bootloader by flashtool and then downgraded to .534 and then installed the dual recovery and then flashed using the flashable recovery using recovery and then i found that camera is not working properly.. camera is opening and when i press the shutter butter its trying to focus the area and after focusing it freezes and doesn't shutter... so this is my problem... please help...
So much fail.
Do not use vroot, it sends your imei number to an ip address in China.
Also, unlocking your bootloader on 4.2 will break your camera, it clearly says so on the Sony official site about unlocking your bootloader.
Now, the solution.
Restore your ta partition.
Use pccompanion to update to the latest firmware
Unlock your bootloader again
Flash a custom kernel of your choice
Install super user app of your choice

I have to ask
Why are you unlocking your bootloader? What have you done it for? You do not get a recovery mode just by unlocking the boot, you have to flash a custom kernel with recovery in it
You either do all the downgrading and install dual recovery if you have a locked bootloader
OR
You unlock your bootloader, flash a custom kernel with recovery and install super user app
there is no need for both approaches and that's why you are getting problems

Why did you unlock the bootloader? What did you want to do with it?
You can not install a recovery without a custom kernel, xperia devices have no recovery partition, it can only be installed by pushing the ramdisks to the system partition or by flashing a custom kernel.
Please follow the advice I gave several posts ago.... that is your solution.
Then spend some time reading up on xperia device flashing.
1) Xperia devices have no factory recovery or recovery partition
2) Unlocking the bootloader is the fastest and easiest method to root and get recovery (If you are allowed to do it)
3) If you cannot or do not want to unlock the bootloader, then go through the downgrade, root, dual recovery process...

Greg said fifteen times - follow his guide for here.
Yoy can't flash custom kernel especially not fastboot custom kernel on locked bootloader.
Whole purpose of unlocking bootloader is to flash custom kernel.
You are confused with all this informations, I would recommend that you read few things here on XDA to understand terms and other things.
You could seriously damage your device with just one wrong step.

My Xperia Z Status:

- Already unlocked bootloader, rooted and CWM installed.
Questions is:

That mean I have to replace CWM Recovery with stock kernel before relock the bootloader. And the device is still rooted, isn't it?
