How to Root your Play

If you just want root access then just use gingerbreak, bootloader unlocking is not needed. Also trackid will no longer work if the bootloader is unlocked.
Sorry for my english but my question is for Re-Lock the bootloader

I discovered a funny side effect when i was trying to fix my phone, I used divinci to flash a new image using their software and 10 credits given to me by Nielk (thanks mate)
It didnt fix the phone but did relock the bootloader oddly
Make TA backup before unlocking bootloader. When you want to re-lock it, write original TA back.

You keep referring to "keeping a backup of your TA". Still, to the best of my knowledge, we have no tools for that yet :-O Unfortunately.

Yes, I constantly do that because that's the most important part of Sony Ericsson S1 phone. If everyone here had original TA backups before unlocking bootloader, there won't be any need for 16 pages of discussion on how to fix bricked Plays and still not find a 100% working solution.

Here's my thought:
We first need free TA backup and write.
Then someone with fully working play should make TA backup (Both a and i Play)
Then I find out the addresses of security zone in TA.
You backup security zone.
Write TA backed up from working phone.
Write your security zone.
That worked on every SE phone so far with GDFS/TA.
What is the TA you're referring to?
Trim Area - part of the phone which contains unique and important data like IMEI, Sim locks, radio data, etc...
Ah, I see. It seems a lot like the /efs folder in the Sammy Galaxy S.

Yes, something like that, only thing is that TA has signed parts so it's almost impossible to unlock phone for free at the moment.

I bought this device in Canada, The provider is Bell.
My bootloader is locked. And following the Sony steps.. It says it won't unlock.
In device, tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. Bootloader unlock allowed says No,
All my favorite apps won't work properly without root.
If anyone figures a way to root it.. I'll give you $100.

$100.... it's sounds good? Okay from my experience I bought my XperiaZ from Australian Telco before and it said Bootloader unlock allowed:No
but when I flashed official generic ftf using flashtool. It's said Bootloader Unlock allowed:Yes. So if you can take a risk try it(do it by your own! and don't forget to back up!)... you might try to do that. Luckly my XperiaZ2 is bootloader allowed one. Hope I have a chance to get 100bucks

This is very dangrous, this depends on the contents of the FTF and i wouldent recoment this at al
Have you tried flashing the German DE generic FTF, i think it has stuff for the TA partition
This may do your job
I still dont recomend, do this at your own will if you know how to unbrick a device
Although i would try it but only because i know how to unbrick a xperia (lol this part usualy takes a while)

I noticed him that it must be done by his own.... But he asks us to is there are anyway to do that? so I just posted the way I did.
I am not recommending him to do that.... I just simply answered his question. Always flash ftf w/o TA and partition.
It is recommended everywhere and If once he started to searching about flash tool it is warned by everyone.
You can't back up TA partition w/o root. So I don't think there is any way to get XperiaZ2 to back to completely stock.
(Although i would try it but only because ←What does it mean? It doesn't make sense for me.)
Well, I tried to flash the stock FTF.. same version as my devices. It errored.. and I am now bricked.
You can't modify an FTF and flash it to a bootloader locked device, modifying it will break Sony's signature verification
I'm guessing there's no way to unbrick?

How i unbrick my devices usualy (if they are locked bootloader)
Pt1
Unplug device totaly
Hold power
Hold volume up
Wait for it to buzz 3 times in a row
(rubber bands usualy help)
(ensure battery isnt killed from doing this (low charge)
(aka dont leave rubber bands for several hours)
Pt2
Download and install sony PC companion
Go to support
Go to repair device
Folow instructions

You'll need to find Sony's signing key then. Good luck with that
Aww.... We warned you.... it must be done by your own and not recommended. Try SEUS.... (Not sure if it works for yours....
Everything what you've done with flashtool will be avoid your warranty..... I think when you downloaded flashtool they warned you again....
As EnviousData warned you too.... even I did not recommended to do that.... dear....
Ok, I managed to unbrick.. back to bootloader unlock allowed: No
Still.. If you guys have any ideas how to root.. $100.

Honestly i say keep your $$$ and wait for a exploit or root method of sorts
Me and my FTF will be a while and Z2 Development has started very slow and may be a while before anything of the sorts comes avaliable
I suggest if you realy want to root try exchanging your device for an unlocked one (or unlockable :/)

For some reason there is a difference in the quality of the pictures taken with lb vs ub.. Be aware of that before unlocking
Edit: if you search on Google you can see that sony states that with unlocking you lose the drm keys and thereby the algorithms etc.. So no image processing

1) Go to your phone dialer.
2) Type *#*#7378423#*#*
3) Tap Service info, and then tap Configuration.
4) Look to the Rooting status section. It will display one of three bootloader statuses.
Bootloader status 1) Bootloader unlock allowed: No (this means you can't unlock your bootloader at all, don't ask if there is any way you can cause there isn't.)
Bootloader status 2) Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes (this means you can unlock your bootloader, remember to take TA backups and make multiple TA backups in case anything happens to your hard drive.)
Bootloader status 3) Bootloader unlock: Yes (this means your bootloader is unlocked, I hope you made them TA backups.)
So, with the new update to 4.4.4 I can't use Play Station App and Play Station Remote, another things that I can't use or I lost with unlocked BL?

You can backup your drm keys anyway if you need to relock boot loader pretty much same as the z ultra procedure I think.
Ahhh okay. But I thought you needed root and to be able to do so you need to unlock the bootloader as there isn't a exploit to root yet ?

there is still no exploit to gain root and back up DRM keys.
the current root method available is for unlocked bootloaders only.
and once you unlock you cannot backup drm keys.
so either wait for an exploit to be found in lolipop or unlock the bootloader to gain root.
So what functions will lose?
Sent from my D6633 using XDA Free mobile app
i'm also currious to this,
can anyone confirm what functions still work
X-reality (i dont realy care about this)
camera speed/improvements (don't care either because it looks silly to take pictures with a tablet )
active noise cancelation with the MDR-31NC, for me really important, basicly the main reason of buying this Z3TC)
Anyone able to confirm that unlocking the bootloader kills remote play? It does for the phones apparently.
Hello!
In order to flash a no brand firmware you DON'T need do unlock your bootloader. Just use flashtool and a nobrand firmware

Not gonna happen anytime soon, since dm-verity security was introduced on the z3+ every Xperia since has needed a unlocked bootloader to get root there's also no way to back up ta keys currently either unfortunately. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

Yes if it's a sim free network unlocked device not locked down by a network/carrier and its supported by Sony for unlocking. Phones that come locked to one network are usually not bootloader unlockable. I was referring to locked Bootloader root, on mm it looks like it's a thing of the past from now on
*#*#7378423#*#* enter into the dial pad and in software configuration I think it is it will say
Bootloader unlock allowed: yes or no, if it's a yes no problem get the code from Sony via email and unlock(it voids the warranty though), if it's a no you won't be rooting it.

Make sure my Xperia is off and OEM unlock in developer options is on, also once the drm/ta keys are gone on unlocking there's no getting them back as there's no way to back up ta keys currently on our devices before unlocking which is why I'm waiting for now.

You are almost right. The only part I disagree with its that you said it will not happen any time soon. While dm-verity make it impossible to modify the system and permanently root it, if a proper exploit is found (which happens almost every month) the system can be temporarily rooted. When that happens, the TA partition can be backed up and the bootloader can be unlocked for permanent rooting. That's actually how z3+ is rooted.

You really make me laugh!! Almost one exploit by month ?! The exploit used in Z3+ was discovered in 2014 (the one used by Kingroot) !!! And patched since 3.18 kernel. Since when dm-verity on Marshmallow was beaten without downgrading to an old exploit on Lollipop?? Can you prove me that's possible to dump TA in MM. Answer me just to laugh a little more :good: See you next month for a new exploit
For me aidy.lucas is fully right!

F3213 - Bootlooder
Hi,
I purchased a F3213, single sim that was carrier locked, no way of unlocking the bootloader.
So after hours of searching, found a fellow in England who offered me a tool to make the phone bootloader unlock ready.
The Phone now works with another carrier, if i unlock the bootloader will i loose the DRM keys?

Unlocking it to work on a different network still won't make the bootloader unlockable. If it's been locked down by a carrier/network it'll stay locked even if the device will now work on any network.

If you can unlock bootloader, root is possible. Download the rootpack for your model and follow the guide for XA, read comments if needed. Read carefully the "unlock bootloader" part to be aware of what it does.
So if I root my F3213, does this allow me to get rid of all the crapware Sony put on there? Or will I need to flash a custom ROM in order to do that?

You don't need to flash a custom ROM to remove most of the system applications. If you have root you can use Titanium Backup to eliminate those unwanted apps.
I haven't rooted yet and just using the disable function in the settings/apps I've gotten rid of almost everything except the What's New thing. With that I just blocked the notifications and it doesn't bother me.
Hey guys. I have a question. It seems that in sony's android MM version, microsd cards can't be used as internal storage. I had in other rooted phone the Link2SD app just to expand my internal storage. On XA Ultra we get only 10Gb free, no root no unistalling trash apps, sooo, any way to expand it via sdcard until root is available?

MM have a feature called Adoptable Storage, you can find guide on Xda. Simple way is to use "root essentials" app on rooted device or with ADB command on not rooted device.
