Short answer: Yes and No.
Long answer: You can, if you have unlocked bootloader.
Just simply flash any stock 4.4.4 kernel, flash DualRecovery and SuperSU.
Then flash back only kernel from original FTF. (you can do this by checking exlude on everything else that isn't kernel)
Boom, root.
Keep it mind to NOT INSTALL XPOSED. Even the alpha, doesn't ALWAYS work on sony FW, we still debugging that.
Hope it helps.
if i have recovery but locked bootloader can i just simply flash superuser or it will brick my z1?

This is what I did but don't have full root access can't install BusyBox my add blocker can't write host files to system can't delete system apps with root explorer but supersu root access prompts popup so im guessing this is to do with selinux being set to enforce and not permissive

*INSTALL NUT'S DUAL RECOVERY*
That's has nothing to do with SELinux, is just Sony RIC process that is not killed.
RIC protects system partition from write.
The NUT's Dual Recovery can kill it at boot time.

*** FIRST OF ALL, MAKE SURE YOU FULL FLASHED THE FTF FIRMWARE, NO ZIP FILES, FTF FULL ***
1) Download the latest SuperSU flashable zip and place it on you internal memory / sdcard (SuperSU Latest: http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu )
2) Download the latest XZDR *flashable* file (XZDR: http://nut.xperia-files.com/ )
2) Power off the phone
3) Fastboot a 4.4.4 custom stock kernel, like TrinityFX one. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z1/development/kernel-fxtrinityultimatekernel-fast-t2801620)
4) Then, power on the device to recovery and flash the SuperSU zip file and XZDR file
5) Power off the phone (either by recovery or keeping pressed power + vol up)
6) Flash THE KERNEL ONLY from FTF.

Hey all,
I have a little complicated story here:
Yesterday I got my Xperia Z, a branded T-Mobile one which was unlockable. First I rooted with the exploit and after that I made a backup of my TA partition for later uses. I had to install TWRP to set the bootloader to unlockable with this file. So by then the bootloader was unlockable again like in the very beginning.
Later I watched this video and did all the steps until the bootloader was unlocked. Then I went back to the root thread with the expliot and rooted it the same way like I did before.
My goal is to successfully flash CyanogenMod 10.1 on my Xperia Z, so I watched this video from the same guy. When he said that I needed CWM I went back to the bootloader unlocking video and did everything after unlocking the bootloader, which was flashing root, insecure fw and the kernel. I accidently used a newer one which didn't work like you can see in this picture:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The Xperia Z still works like before and I have CWM 6.0.2.8 installed, but I'm unsure if I could brick it because I accidently used another kernel beforehand. Also, I can't reboot to CWM with an adb command, but it works by pressing vol up when booting. Does that make a difference?
If so, what can I do to get CyanogenMod 10.1 on my device?
Actually I'd be really happy just to know if my bootloader is really unlocked, since I have no real proof.
CWM is also asking if I want to "Disable recovery flash" which would prevent my rom from flashing the stock recovery on boot.
Okay, that's everything for now I think. Would be really nice if someone could help me with this.
Thanks in advance!

Yes your bootloader is unlocked becuase you successfully flashed unsigned kernel, now you need to download CM10.1 and inside it will give you a kernel to flash and rom to install

Do I just have to flash via CWM or do I have to extract the boot.img out of the .zip, flash it via fastboot and then with CWM again?
(That's how it's presented in the video about flashing custom roms).

you will have to unzip the folder and it should give you two files boot.img and a zip, zip is rom so copy that over to you phone, you can only flash kernel via adb or flashtool so what you need to do is open up cwm and install after install complete then flash CM kernel.
I am still on locked for the XZ but this is what i had to do on X Arc which i am 99.9% sure it is the same way

This is what's inside a CM10.1 nightly:
In the video about custom roms the order is like this:
1. Extract boot.img out of the .zip
2. Put cm10.1.zip and gapps.zip on sdcard
3. Flash boot.img via adb
4. Restart into cwm
5. Factory reset/wipe cache
6. Install cm10.1.zip and gapps.zip
7. Reboot and it should start CyanogenMod 10.1
Should that also work?
Sorry for so many questions and step-by-step asking, I just don't want to brick it or get bootloops, since that would completely throw me off.
Thanks in advance!

1 Download the prebuilt release of CyanogenMod you wish to install. (Or if you've built CM yourself, look in the $OUT directory for the .zip.)
Optional: Download any supplemental 3rd-party applications packages for the device you wish to use. (You have to install a 3rd-party app to get the Google apps, like Gmail, Play Store, and Youtube.)
2 Place the CyanogenMod rom .zip file on the root of the SD card.
Optional: Place any supplemental packages' .zip file on the root of the SD card.
3 Extract the boot.img from the zip, you will need this file for fastboot.
4 Put the phone into fastboot mode:
5 Open a terminal on the PC and enter the following:
fastboot -i 0xfce flash boot boot.img
fastboot -i 0xfce reboot
While the device reboots, press the Volume rockers a few times to load recovery.
6 Once the device boots into the ClockworkMod Recovery, use the physical volume buttons to move up and down. On most devices, the power button is used to confirm your selection, although for some devices the power button is used as a "back" button to go up one level, in which case the home button is used to confirm the selection.
Optional/Recommended: Select backup and restore to create a backup of the current installation on the Xperia Z.
7 Select the option to wipe data/factory reset.
8 Select Install zip from sdcard.
9 Select Choose zip from sdcard.
10 Select the CyanogenMod file you placed on the sdcard. You will then need to then confirm that you do wish to flash this file.
Optional: Install any additional packages you wish using the same method.
11 Once the installation has finished, return back to the main menu, and select the reboot system now option. The Xperia Z should now boot into CyanogenMod.

Instructions:
Note, you must have drivers properly installed and make sure your adb recognizes your phone with "fastboot devices"
1. Plug your device into PC and put it into fastboot mode!
2. If you haven't unlocked your bootloader then this will and it will entirely wipe your device!
3. After your bootloader is unlocked, phone will boot cf-autoroot, big red android icon will appear on your screen, wait for it to finish.
4. Reboot, done!
I will update link when chainfire makes official root for 5.0, this is cf-auto-root for 4.4.4, but it works fine
if you are already unlocked you can just run the following command in fastboot:
fastboot boot CF-Auto-Root-mako-occam-nexus4.img
just make sure you extract the img first and it should work.
Touch recovery 6.0.4.7 works fine
Thanks for sharing this info, i have installed cwm and root =),
does anybody knows if Xposed is compatible with lollipop?
the script will bypass the unlock part if you are already unlocked and just flash the img
noob here..
Ok so the updated CF auto root has patched kernel or just some patches to fix se linux and other patches to enable root..??
Im asking this because the CF auto root is based on KOT49H so will the kernel be replaced by patched kernel from KOT49H??

Chainfire updated the tool. Even if it says it's for version 4.4.4 he's updated it for 5.0. It does alter the kernel to set SELinux to permissible but don't worry about the alterations as it is made for 5.0.

No. 5.0 uses ART as the new runtime which isn't yet compatible with Xposed.

Weird, my camera is still working here. Running the factory OTA. This did give me root which the SuperSU 2.19 zip didn't (but Super SU gave my root on CM12 fwiw). My bootloader was already unlocked and it didn't wipe anything for me.

Definitely not! It is unknown yet when it will be.
Sorry guys if i missed this info...have anybody of you managed to make booting options work like in twrp app or quick boot.
I rooted successfully my N4 today, however booting options don't bring any effect when tapped.
EDIT: reboot command in terminal emulator works as it should though.
hi men, I try to use Linux for now, so what will I do in Terminal after unlock bootloader ?
Thanks you ^^

Chainfire updated the link with root for 5.0 :
http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/#fastboot
I updated auto root link.
Do I need to have a custom recovery beforehand?
I flashed the 4.4.4 image file you provided before and root works fine. Now that chainfire updated it to 5.0, should i flash the .img file of 5.0 again ?? I'm on stock 5.0 and latest TWRP.
Another thing, Before flashing any custom kernel should i flash the root image file again and then kernel.zip file or just kernel.zip file is enough ?? I can try this myself but i don't want to mess-up my new born Lollipop

Thanks to you, now I have a rooted a1
Update: had some trouble with supersu but now everything is okay. I think even after uninstalling kingroot apps they prevent supersu from updating the binary. I solved that by flashing latest beta of supersu which is 2.49, so I suggest you to attach that instead of version 2.46. Also I suggest you to attach rashr instead of flashify

Huh? On what terms you're referring?
Like flashing / wiping etc?
Yeah, Philz took some more time than TWRP in the terms of flashing, wiping, etc....
BTW, TWRP is faster than Philz, I would like to suggest you TWRP.
Meantime, I ain't blaming /degrading Philz.. It's the stable recovery we ever got.
I was also a Philz user, but shifted to TWRP Since then...
You know, TWRP got new features like ota installer and etc, which makes you flashing OTA's on the go simple.
Use this TWRP - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24562946973632081

Couldn't boot to recovery to restore backup.. After sometime managed to boot to recovery restored backup did not boot again so booted to recovery and wiped data, system, and cache and now stucked at sony logo
Flash you'r phone with flash tool
Find the stock recovery and flash using SP Flash tool. That's the only fix I can suggest.

You can't flash stryflex rom to locked bootloader, you need to unlock it first.
As for now just install Sony pc companion and use it to repair your phone
Or download stock ftf and flash it with flashtool, but the pcc method is better and safer.

Even I had this problem but when I turn WiFi or mobile data on and then it worked. But I can see your WiFi is already on... m not sure what's wrong. may be someone else will help you.

Hi all,
I recently rooted my Z1 via Kingroot (kingroot.net) And replacing it with supersu via terminal emulator method. After opening app, it asks to update binary but always fails and asking to reboot and try again.
Hope someone could help.
Thanks

Yeah, even I don't know why it fails to update binaries. I'm thinking now to downgrade it to KK and flash it using PC

Try to root again with kingroot. After this install TWRP recovery from PC. Choose root permission with SuperSu (or something else) then on your phone will ask root permission from kingroot because SuperSu not work yet. After install recovery try to unistall Kingroot and install SuperSu package from recovery. You must turn on usb debugging when install recovery. Sorry for bad Englisch.
Yeah try that.. Just do it

Nope first flash dual recovery or twrp or whatever you like.
I had this problem too and this is how I solve it
1. Full unroot with supersu and reboot
2. Root again via kingroot v4.52 (mrw script won't work with kingroot v5)
3. Download the latest Supersu.apk from your pc (or phone browser)
4. Rename Supersu.apk to Superuser.apk
4. Replace the old superuser.apk in mrw folder with the new superuser.apk that you just downloaded
5. Run the script again to replace kingroot with supersu and update the binary.

Thank you for the additional info, I have read that we can flash custom recovery even with locked bootloader, that's a good news for me. Lol

I won't recommend flashing recovery unless your binaries are working properly.

Yes, it updated successfully, I followed your step by step guide by replacing the apk file in mrw folder. Build no. 14.6.A.1.236 here by the way.
