Rooting Xperia T with cyanogenmod 12 - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

Hello all,
Today I got fed up with my Xperia T's stock firmware so I decided to move everything to cyanogenmod 12. Installed the rom but now I guess the permissions are not fine, so later I found out it would have been a good idea to root my device prior to my upgrade. Now I cannot find a way to successfully root my phone, I even tried RootKing and two other similar applications. I was wondering what rooting method can I use via the upgrade (Recovery is Cyanogen's)?
Best,
shorto

I rooted my LT30p with kingoapp from kingoapp.com or kingoroot.com not sure
Only problem was play store not working, when i tried to solve it device keep restarting again and again not sure what i did wrong.
If you cab figure it out, you can try.

My problem is none of these work since my permission are apparently screwed up so badly I cannot even access my files since I do not have permission to them, nor can I install anything.

Try CyanogenMod 12.1 - Neo's Homebuilds in the Xperia T Original Android Development section.
And for the Gapps I would recommend OpenGapps.

[Q] help - no su binary installed?

i have previously unlocked bootloader and rooted my device using the Hasoons all in one tool kit and then had been using ard 12.1.
I then fancied trying the latest GE 4.3 release (stock) which i downloaded and flashed and all seemed fine however when i went to check root was still there i have the icon but get a message saying that there is no su binary installed. I have tried to use the toolkit again to go back the root procedure in the hope i can re-install what ever is missing however for some reason now the tool kit comes up with an error message in the box saying waiting for device or device not recognized.
I have tried to sort the problem but now feel i am just going round and around in circles and really dont have the knowledge to put it right as im quite new to the flashing and modding side and dont fully understand all the terminology, im sure its probably something really simple to fix for those who know how so would really appreciate some advice.
My overall aim would be to be running the stock rom (or might even try the new arhd 4.3 ge) with root so that i can then use the volume + to wake mod as i find this really usefull as my power button is quite depressed and hard to use.

hello you are in need of the new 4.3 superuser.zip
http://download.clockworkmod.com/test/superuser-4.3-beta3.zip
if you are using CWM, when it asks to fix su upon reboot, select NO
Wow thank you!!!!!
You have no clue, or maybe you do, how lost I got trying to root my HTC One. This is all new to me, but this forum has helped massively. I found that the supersu zip I had was the older version when I already had 4.3 uploaded before rooting. This community rocks!
why do my gapps processes keep crashing?
NM forgot to full wipe
So I have the same issue - my only question is that I am running 4.4 now. Does this super user file still work or is there a 4.4 version?
Just use "SuperSu" if you face any root acces issues

Hi there, Im new to the rooting world, I have a htc one m7 from sprint trying to sim unlock it, as far as I know I unlocked the bootloader, tampered it, and rooted, but no access to super user so I can sim unlock it. I downloaded and installed this App that you mention, but still keeps saying no binary updated, and with this 4.3 version says there was an error installing superuser. Please help, I dont know what to do.
I was having this same issue on my Note 2 (4.3). I seem to have found a way to restore root that may help you as well.
I think this issue may be caused by the SU app & binary updates. Uninstalling the updates has restored root for me.
Go to:
​Settings > More > Application Manager > All > SuperSU > Uninstall updates
​(menu options may be slightly different on other devices)
This will roll back SuperSU and hopefully restore your root access.
Let me know if this helps.
Any updates on this? I'm trying to get root on an HTC One M7 that I just purchased and I'm running into the same error.
Thanks!

[Q] How to update a rooted 10.3.1.A.2.67 to a rooted 10.4.B.0.569?

First thing first, I'm a total newbie and English is not my native language. I'll try to explain my question as simple as possible.
A month ago, I bought an Xperia Z (C6603) and it had Android 4.2.2 (10.3.1.A.2.67) installed. I decided to root it by using:
DooMLoRD_Easy-Rooting-Toolkit_v18_perf-event-exploit
XperiaZ_C660X_KernelOnly_10.3.1.A.2.67.ftf
XperiaZ_C660X_KernelOnly_10.3.A.0.423_Generic_NL.ftf
These are the only 3 things that I use to root my device. I finally managed to root my device after lots of trial and error. So I don't know if I have CWM or unlocked Bootloader stuff after the root simply because I'm not an expert but one thing for sure, I've successfully root my device.
Recently, I noticed that there is Android 4.3 (10.4.B.0.569) update available for Xperia Z. Therefore, I really want to update my device from ROOTED Android 4.2.2 (10.3.1.A.2.67) to ROOTED Android 4.3 (10.4.B.0.569) but how?
I know that we have a lot of tutorials available on the forums and we got Google too but they are very confusing. So I hope someone could help me via this thread and I'll really appreciate it. Thanks!

Losing root after reboot

Hello,
I'm facing some small problem with my Xperia.
I own this device for 4 days, so please consider me noob (only for this device).
So I've unlocked my bootloader, rooted the phone and installed CWM, but the problem is that it is losing root after every reboot (I have to flash SuperSu libraries each time to fix it).
I've seen a thread about this, how to re-root my phone, however I can't find it anymore.
Could You help me to root my phone permanently?

Flash a pre-rooted 4.3 rom is better

Yeah, I know that's the way but I kind of don't want to change my ROM now, as I would have to set up everything (I know I can leave data, but it may cause FC's).
I also tried existenZ ROM, but it was slower.
I've found some thread about this fix, but it didn't work
Hi,
I have the problem with à Samsung Galaxy i9305. :

[Q] [HELP]Can't Root anymore (GT P1000L)

So, I acquired my GT P1000L quite recently (like, 4 days ago), and I started to look for methods on how to upgrade it from 2.3.6 to kitkat 4.4.4. And after hundreds of forums and threads, I finally found one that worked for me. Managed to install CwM recovery, CF root (A big problem that I'll explain later), and proceeded to install everything.
After a lot of cold sweat, since it was my first time doing this kind of upgrade, finally the Cyanogemod logo showed up, took 2 minutes to load everything, and it asked me to choose the language...And my sadness started when I discovered my touch screen stopped working.
So, after crying on the corner like a little kid, I found a tutorial on how to go "restock", I guess that's what is called, rolling all the way back to 2.3.6, Which didn't take that long, everything good and dandy, when I discovered 2 major reasons why it didn't work for me.
1: The CF Root that I used, only works with P1000, not P1000L (at least is what some people in the cf thread said), and CF was the reason why my touch screen stopped working.
So I decided to go back and see if I missed something, and saw a small warning saying that I should at least have CM 10.2 before upgrading to CW 11 (the one for kitkat 4.4.4). And that led me to my second problem, find a ROOT and instal CWM mod and go to 10.2.
So I searched, and found demonlord V4 (I think that's it), root, and tried it...And boom. The Root failed, and I was like WTF?
And when I decided to check the root's log, it said that some folders were protected, read only files (Something that never happened before). So I decided to try another root, Kingo root, and to my surprise, ROOT Failed again.
Tried ADB, Qatbd, none of them seem to work.
How can I root my device again? Or at least remove the read only protection?
The same happened to me! I still working to make my root work again! Anybody that can help us?????!!!!!!!
Take kingo root app on ur pc and root ur phones

z1 un-rooting possibility

hi guys, please forgive me for this newb post, ive used this site in the past for many years and never struggled enough to ask a question....I used a thread on here a few months ago to unroot my phone with three apps one of which was super su, I have the sony z1 c6903. using the guide on here had no problems rooting the device to do the things I needed to do....I now want to remove the root and revert to stock so my wife can use the phone and do all the updates naturally. ive been rading this forum for two days now and keep coming back to nothing, ive managed to use flashtool by androxyde, downloaded the latest firmware as I gave up trying to unroot it, did this and now have the latest software update all working and showing no need for an update anywhere...only now my camera has stopped working and ive hit a wall again lol.
is there anyway to just wipe the phone to standard and unroot it so its like its just out of the box?????
many thanks
stainlessniel
p.s
I used super su option to unroot and it said it did it and checked with root checker, it syas the device is not rooted properly

You can try to reset the camera by deleting camera data.
Next you can try the reset phone option.
if you are on stock with just root you can try using pc companion and use the option repair your mob...
ps:-not responsible for any bricked mobs...do some more research on this option.(i had done it on my xperia neo)
