This is wrong thread for Q&A, but I can enlight you its not possibe today with locked bootloader. Have a good day!

Root is possible with locked bootloader.
Did it a few minutes ago.
Flashed 4.4.4 via Flashtool
Rooted via Easytool
Dualrecovery via .bat with Point 3 in the menue
Then flashed a 5.0.2 Zip I made with PRFCreator including Root (SuperSu 2.4.6) and Dualrecovery
Everything is working fine!

You can more accurately describe these operations how to do it ??

1. Download the firmware for your device with "XperiFirm"
2. Make a ftf of the firmware you just downloaded with "Flashtool".
3. Download "dual recovery" and latest "SuperSU" package.
4. Make sure you have a custom recovery already on your phone.
5. Read how to use this tool and make a zip for your phone to flash with it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/tool-prfcreator-easily-create-pre-t2859904
6. Flash the zip through recovery. Wipe cache, data and dalvik before ideally. Done. You will be pre-rooted with SuperSU.
PS: Don't try to install Xposed yet, it causes bootloops after first reboot so I am back on Kitkat until that's sorted.

Here is the tutorial for PRFCreator:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/tool-prfcreator-easily-create-pre-t2859904
Then flash the zip from sdcard1 via Philz Recovery
1st boot takes a long time
When already on 5.0.2, then flash a Kitkat FTF via Flashtool
Then root the 4.4.X with Easyroot
After that you have to use Dualrecovery installer, there you choose point 3
ZU will restart, pushing Vol Up will start Philz Recovery
In Philz Recovery Wipe Data, Cache, Dalvik, Factory reset
Then install Zip

didnt work for me
Thi method didnt work for me. My mobile is C6802. It went into a loop
The steps I followed were like this:
Flash kitkat with flashtool
Root with philz dual recovery
go into philz recovery
flash the zip file made with the link given above.
for recovery i downloaded philz dual recovery flashable

Try to make your own Zip with PRFCreator with a FTF for the C6802

Excuse me, does it work with locked bootloader? I'm coming from rooted 4.4 with locked bootloader but after I've followed your steps now I am in a bootloop

Followed again all the steps but checking more options in PRFCreator.... Lollipopo 5.02 with root is actually running on my Z Ultra
Thanks for your instructions!!

Actually there's a way to root 5.0.2 on UB without recompiling the .ftf and reflashing 4.4.4 back and forth. Just did that yesterday after having a bootloop with that pre-rooted .ftf.
So here's the idea (assuming you have an unlocked bootloader):
You will need the 5.0.2 .ftf, flashtool, fastboot, boot.img file from doomkernel v.22, XZDualrecovery zip and latest SuperSU zip from koushik's webpage (the one with 7 or 8 folders in it).
1) Clean flash any Lollipop .ftf with Flashtool.
2) Use fastboot to flash the boot.img from DoomKernel, thus you get a working recovery.
3) Restart the phone straight into recovery without letting it boot.
4) Flash SuperSU and XZDualRecovery, do the wipes (cache+dalvik) and power off the phone.
5) With Flashtool flash only the kernel of the Lollipop rom.
6) Reboot and enjoy! Now you have a fresh stock Lollipop ROM with full root access and a working recovery.
I suppose you could lock the bootloader back after that if you need it, though I don't see any reason to do that.
P.S. I will try to update this post with all links later when I get to my PC, posting with my XZU now.

If you're asking about my previous post, then you don't actually have to "get" it. You should load the very same .ftf into Flashtool and then uncheck every tick except "KERNEL". That's the way to flash only one part of the rom.

Yup, but you asked the same question yesterday i believe, and also think two days ago. You need an unlocked bootloader to flash kernels, and there are no ways around that.

for now it is impossible for LB, but I used this kernel as a bridge to get root and and then relock BL on my C6802.
yes you must unlock the BL first.

Do you have full root with locked BL?
Locked BL for what i read you need stock kernel too....
I tried but i only have parcial root..
Can't mount system as rw...
Yep, was going to say that reflash of stock kernel ftf removes system write (eg partial root) ~ but as @blueether has "suggested" (either here or another thread) the @[NUT] recovery "may" remount and fix this without need of a modified kernel (I'm not completely sure).

this is what I did:
- flash ftf, (EDIT: in my case I boot the phone to check if ftf flashed successfully, phone boot and and wizard setup running, turning the phone OFF, then unclocked the BL with flashtool
- 'fastboot boot 757.img' (not 'fastboot flash boot', jackies one, with vanilla cwm)
- enter CWM, have to immediately did
- flash supersu.zip
- flash this fix (system r/w mount fix
- flash nut dualrecovery (latest beta 119 will be better)
- restore TA with TWRP from kitkat .681 nandroid (restore only Trim Area)
- done.. reboot, still got full root
^^ good work, and nice link @Lc1975 confirming nut recovery does disable rickill

Soft brick my phone doing this...
Done every steps like you told here...
but when i reboot only have red light blinking and vibrate... nothing more...
Maybe because i locked the BL with Backup TA...
had to flash again the ftf...

Sorry to hear that but I don't know whether it is relevant or not.. After flashing full clean ftf (step 1) I boot the phone to check flashtool did the job. It boot and bring to the setup wizard. I turn the phone off and then did second step (unlock with flashtool and then 'fastboot boot 757.img') and so on..

Yeah, that'll happen if you re-lock your bootloader on a custom kernel. It has happened to me a couple of times, and you can solve it by simply unlocking the bootloader again.
^^ to be safe, you can reflash stripped ftf from @[NUT] rom thread to return kernel to stock (instead of relying on a TA backup of what will usually be an old kernel if you're upgrading)

Thanks for your answers..
i already unlock again the BL with this one it's the sixth time..
Damm!!!

[D5833][5.0.2] 23.1.A.0.690_R9C [SuperSU/AndroPlusKernel]

Hi guys!
I know there are fellow impatient D5833 owners out there who are tired of waiting for lollipop and want to try it out already, so I made this ROM. Tried and tested. Please report any bugs.
This is not the official FW from Sony for D5833. I am using the D5803 stock firmware.
Backup! If you want to downgrade back to KitKat you are going to have to do so using Flashtool, you will lose all data.
Do not install on encrypted devices.
Flash this ROM at your own risk. I am not responsible for any damage.​
Info:
Customized NCB_1288-5411_23.1.A.0.690_R9C
SuperSU-v2.46
AndroPlusKernel v50a
Required:
- Full root on KitKat (Stock - 23.0.A.2.93/23.0.1.A.5.77) with recovery.
- Unlocked bootloader.
Installation:
1. Download zip.
2. Enter recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache.
3. Flash zip.
4. Reboot.
Download

1) You should indicate that this is for unlocked bootloader only, not for all.
If you flash this on a locked bootloader, you'll get a blank screen or a bootloop.
2) I guess this should be in development section
3) What about basebands? D5833 works on different LTE frequencies...
Can you add the mods you use

Oops, forgot to mention that. The thread is moved in the correct section, my mistake
Regarding the baseband, I've experience no problems using C Euro/Nordic D5803 basebands on D5833. I could not get 4G on Israel, USA, SA, Turkey. I'm on EE 4G network in United Kingdom. I found that my 4G is faster on this baseband after testing with speedtest

I have backup in the Backup and Restore app and i'm aware i need a locked bootloader to use it though. Can i relocked my bootloader after a successful reboot? Is there any consequence?

Is this the only backup that you have? I'm pretty sure that the Backup and Restore app isn't working because of no DRM keys.
I'd advise you to move that backup data onto your PC, and then try the DRM function restoration by jimRnor
FW android 5 D5833
Hi man, thanks for your effort, I have a D5833.
My device is rooted, locked bootloader (DRM intact) and the 23.0.A.2.106 version, which is the downgrade made in the process (http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/how-to-root-backup-drm-keys-t3013343).
By the requirements this tutorial would not work on my phone. Is how you do a firmware (D5833) Android 5 pre-rooted?
Hi,
Is it possible to flash this ROM over Cyanogenmod 12?
If not, what steps are necessary to do this? My bootloader is unlocked.
Thanks!

I didn't use that method, I backed up my DRM keys and used http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/development/to-drm-keys-unlock-bootloader-custom-t3065914 to restore DRM functions. Since this rom has AndroPlus in the zip, relocking the BL is going to result in bootloops

You'll need a full wipe (sys, data, cache, dalvik cache) since you're going back to stock, backup your apps and data and flash the zip from recovery, enjoy!
FW android 5 D5833
What I do not know about is to make the pre-rooted FW, tried and failed. Wanted to put directly the FW Android 5 without going through the final .77, but do not know if this is that there (http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/how-to-root-backup-drm-keys-t3013343) is the D5833:
26 - Read the information and follow the instructions Given by the tool.

Well, if I understood your post correctly, the rigtht process to change from CM12 to your Firmware as followed:
1. Download the zip to sdcard0 or sdcard1 (external SD Card)
2. Start in recovery mode ( Cyanogen recovery possible only on CM12)
3. Full wipe (wipe data/factory reset)
4. install downloaded zip (apply update)
Is it right? I´m not shure what you are mean with "since you're going back to stock..."

I bought XZU 10 days ago and it updated to 14.6.A.1.236
Thanks to your guide, I rooted and got SuperSU now.
But I could not enter CM Recovery after trying Vol U or D + Power button.

U need to hit Vol+/- when booting up, it should vibrate and LED should light up to Yellow or Pink, once it vibrates and LED turns on, hit Vol+/- that should put u in recovery

Yes bootloader is unlocked now
Sony Emma detects phone but says no services for your device. So I don't know if it has Sony Open bootloader or not.

bootloader
Hi guys. I have Z Ultra C6833 with the latest build number which is 14.6.A.1.236 and with locked bootloader. I updated my phone via online update of Sony and without flash tools. I have question:
1) can I use your method in my phone? I mean should I unlock my bootloader or not?
2) does it create problem that I updated my phone via online update and without Flashtools?
Thanks
Perfect, easiest method yet.

[STOCK][Marshmallow] D855 30B KDZ + Flashable Zips (system+boot+modem+root)[UPDATED!]

This thread is for the D855 variants. Files are from software version 30B (Android 6.0 Marshmallow).
Included below: TWRP-flashable stock rom, boot and modem zips. KDZ and individual images are also included.​
*There is NO anti-rollback qfuse used in this update so downgrading is still possible. See below for more downgrade info.
Please do not mirror files!
Requirements:
You must have TWRP 2.8.7+ installed to use these files. Thanks to Dees_Troy as always for that.
Best to already be rooted and have TWRP installed while on Android 4.x - 5.x then flash the zips in this thread to update to a rooted stock Marshmallow. It has been reported that 30B can be temp-rooted with Kingroot 4.6.5. So you COULD flash the 30B KDZ, temp-root with Kingroot and then read my long/annoying post here to perm root http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64626209&postcount=529 . *update on root* With the info I provided in the previous sentence.. AutoRec for D855 has been updated for Marshmallow 30B.
Install Directions:
These directions should be used by everyone who wants a rooted 30B system. Don't want root? Then it's probably easiest to just flash the stock KDZ.
Before beginning it is suggested to backup your EFS in TWRP then save it to an external SD card or the cloud or your PC etc etc...
1. D/L 30B boot(V2), modem (Hybrid) and system zips along with SuperSu 2.52 and place on internal storage.
(Thanks to Chainfire for SuperSu and thanks to msubhani for confirming 2.52 works)
2. (Re)boot into TWRP. Backup current partitions: boot, system, data, efs. Press home button.
3. If coming from 100% stock Lollipop then a factory reset is optional.
COMING FROM ANY OTHER ROM needs a factory reset [Wipe button > swipe slider]
4. Install modem, boot, system and SuperSu zips (in that order!)
[Install button > select modem > Add zip > select boot > Add zip > system > Add zip > SuperSu > swipe to confirm]
All done.. time to reboot back into Android. (if TWRP asks if you want to install SU, no!)
Any issues with apps crashing etc after boot up may require a factory reset in TWRP for a fresh install of M.
Any issues with no root after flashing all 4 zips... boot back into TWRP and just reflash SuperSu zip.
Downloads:
LG-D85530B-Flashable.System.zip
100% stock untouched system. Also comes with cust partition. MD5 = e10f135e92d5246370ea6f5b8d36c6e5
Mirror here.
LG-D85530B-Flashable.Modem.RPM.TZ-AutoHybrid.zip
This is a hybrid 30B modem, rpm and tz zip with parts from 21A and 30B. 100% 30B modem does not yet work with Bump-compatible bootloaders so the option is to use this hybrid modem or use a Lollipop modem. Original 30B modem is still available in the Codefire Directory link further below if needed. Also HERE is the 21A modem/rpm/tz combo just in case you don't want to use the hybrid.
LG-D85530B-Flashable.Boot-AutoV2.zip
This is a flashable stock 30B boot.img. Boot.img contains kernel + dtb + ramdisk. I repacked this to make some things work then Bump'd it. Thanks to Codefire for BUMP.
CODEFIRE DIRECTORY
KDZ, stock images, flashable zips and all other 30B-related files available here.
30B KDZ Mirror
Downgrade/Revert:
1. Use LGUP HERE to flash a previous KDZ version. The LGUP thread assumes you have a G4... so instead of downloading the "8992 DLL use the DLL installer LGUP_8974_DLL_Ver_0_5_CODEFIRE.MSI HERE instead.
2. Restore your TWRP backups. Depending on your TWRP build it may or may not backup modem. If it does not and you flashed the 30B modem you will have to find a Lollipop modem zip elsewhere. All versions of TWRP should backup Boot, system and data.. so only other variable is modem/rpm/tz.
3. Use LG Flash + TOT + NEW DLL HERE to downgrade. I think LGUP is the better option tho... LGUP can flash both KDZ and TOT and doesn't care which COM port it's using.

CM devs have already got their hands on this to grab the blobs for CM13! http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/q/topic:g3_M_blobs
Currently the new 30B modem doesn't mesh with the downgraded bootstack which is needed for BUMP. Current fix is to keep the hybrid modem I linked in the above post or using the 21A or 21C modems... I've also linked 21A modem/tz/rpm above so you won't have to hunt for everything. Everything required should be in this thread somewhere.
I plan on poking the modem stuff more once I can get an M build for my G3 version.
First of all thanks a lot for the zips
Just one question, in the instructions its says 'Flash FULL 30B ZIP', does that mean all the zips or just the System? I have this doubt because the bootloader is new so we cant use bump on the new bootloader right?

could it be because i flash it over fulmics
no sim card message, no root.
i loaded up the recovery, appriciate the devs work. But no go on this side of the word
So, clean install would kill root, right?
Can I do a full wipe on fulmics and install the 3 zips along with sharpening fix and supersu?

Lineage always messes up going back to stock roms. I've had this problem to on 20g to after being on lineage. You'll have to kdz to 20f and get twrp. I had put this on the flashing instructions you must be on 20f/g. .
It does include modem.

I'm no developer. I just want to update without rooting or custom recovery. I try it 2 ways, and fails the normal way, and the stock recovery doesn't recognize the update.zip the 2nd way. I probably have it named wrong. Either way, I doubt it's impossible. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I don't want to flash a rom. I asked how to flash the stock update from the stock recovery because the update errors out when I try to do it the normal ota way. There is an option to update from SD in the stock recovery. It's just that it doesn't recognize the stock update.zip in the stock recovery because I probably don't have it named right. Was just wondering if anyone knew what to name it, where to download the update.zip, how to update with it etc. Didn't mean to offend anybody ?

at least 20f and root required.
saw nobody put it up so i decided i would.
Mine still has rooted 10c. How to update to this latest ROM and rooted ? TIA
Does 7.0 improve idling/sleeping battery ?
Yes that is probably one of its biggest changes vs MM.
Follow this guide to a T: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g-pad-83/development/nougat-7-0-v521-guide-to-update-v521-lg-t3533338
then boot into recovery, copy my TWRP backup to internal/microsd/usb, in TWRP restore the system and boot partitions that are automatically checked.
Download the latest systemless or system mode supersu.zip and copy it to the main install folder C:\Program Files x86\Minimal ADB and Fastboot\.
Then in twrp click ADB sideload > do not check anything to erase > open minimal adb/fastboot and type adb sideload whateveryounamedyoursupersuzipfile.zip and you should be good to go.
