Sorry but I can't find out what to do.
I want to remove about 10-15 apps from my xperia ray like tetris demo, trial wise pilot, or even more uselessapps like facebook, trackid, or sync(as sync is not working anyway).
So in fact, all I want is to remove all the irrelevant apps from the system.
Problem is:
I get confused searching the site. (ST18i/ .368 or .62/2.3.3 or 2.3.4; I couldn't figure out what to do. Bootloader unlock via official site was no problem; but then what?)
So I do not want a complete empty system, I just want to remove some apps which should not be locked in the . Do I need a full root, or is there a simple way?
Can anyone help me?
Hi, I'm not a dev and I'm new to android too, so maybe someone have to confirm what I say.
You don't have to unlock your bootloader to remove bloatware, just root it.
I think that there's no way to root .62 firmware (at least for now). You have to downgrade to .42 (using Wotan Server, for exemple) and root your mobile with Zergrush method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1320350), when root is done you can upgrade to .62 firmware OTA that will keep your phone rooted.
That's what I did when I reinstalled .62 FW in my X Ray with SEUS after a bootloop problem.

I can't be root in Xperia neo 4.0.2.A.0.69 after update the software truth the Pc Companion... Before that,i was root...but now no.
Rooting Status: Bootloader unlock allowed: No
I can't do anything to be root????
Please,Help Me Developers. I don't know what to do... Thanks.
The only thing you can do is to go back to firmware .42, root it here and update then OTA to .69
that's (as far as I know) the only way to root a .62 or .69 xperia.
the only problem is that Multiupload is dead. so the .42 firmware file is not available at the moment.
That's why I keep at firmware 58.

hey
i just did it like you said.
i downgradet to .42, rooted it and updatet it to .69.
before updating, it had root, now after the update root is gone.

Go to Xperia Neo thread. You can find all the info there.

Hi all,
I have tried to root my new Sony Xperia Miro (Vodafone UK). I have Android SDK and Superoneclick. Superoneclick gets stuck on "waiting for device" when I launch the rooting process (I have unmounted my SD). I have trawled Google, but I haven't found anything that helps.
The phone isn't listed on XDA, I assume, because it's hot off the press. Any advice would be appreciated.
Sincerely, Noob.

Do you need an unlocked bootloader for this?
Nope, at least, I hadn't. I pulled my Miro out of the box, set up the device with my Google account, and started the script. The first three times it failed, but the fourth time it worked. I suppose I didn't unlock the bootloader in the process.
I'll also try to see if I can. :cyclops:
King regards,
Jorge
I ran version 11 and got the first!!
Excellent!!
Many thanks to the developers!!
root miro
root didn't work on new firmware on miro :crying:
Sony repaired bug and now this tool dont work ..
You need to revert back to firmware 11.0.A.2.10 in order to root. I had my miro updated
to 11.0.A.5.5 but I was unable to root it. I reverted back to 11.0.A.2.10 (using flashtool
and ST23i_11.0.A.2.10_CentralEurope.ftf) and then I rooted it easily with "Root_with_Restore
_by_Bin4ry_v18".
If you are not planning on installing a custom rom, just flash it with a clear OEM 11.0.A.5.5
firmware so as to get rid of all the crap that came with your phone.
Hello, I have a problem, do all the steps but when I click on Restore in mobile, not the message that should be in the Windows console, either restarts or anything ...
Also when I click on Restore (the backup is loaded BootMe) takes not even half a second in "restored"
PS: I have debug mode and third applications on.
Guide I used: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
Other: That the 2nd time I root my Xperia S. The first time worked, but now no.
Someone help me?
You may have an updated firmware that blocks the exploit. If you do you'll need to flash a rootable ftf then root. Search the Xperia S forum for the files

If you don't want to lose DRM keys and Warranty, first flash a rootable .ftf file using Flashtool. You can find link in your forum. DO NOT unlock your bootloader. It voids your warranty. If you don't care, unlock it. And Use the search function before starting a new thread.

Hi.
I have one sony xperia u with android 2.3.7 and i want to simply root this phone and if this happened without loosing any data.
I have already try these steps
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x65ua5x4sMc
but at step 12 it seems like the mobile doesn't response at all and i don't know how to install the step 4(android sdk software)
And i try even that without any results.
I believe it need to unlock the bootloader so i can proceed with root but because i can't install the android sdk software the xperia u doesn't communicate with my pc.
before you go in the developers only forum find your device in the search box..if you cant do that go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1515
for rooting your XU try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460

go ahead and update your device..no harm in that..use bin4ry's rooting method after that..try using v13 first though before using the latest..

It is for d6903 not for d6603. And you cannot flash a pre-rooted ftf file if you have not rooted your phone before flashing. I think you should just flash the latest marshmallow ftf for d6603 and root you phone afterwards.

I'm pretty sure prototype protection is the apk that does that just delete it. Use kingroot to obtain root. find xz dual recovery theres actually an apk for it so if you found that and installed a prerooted zip you don't even need a computer becarefull what you are flashing if you flash the wrong stuff you could brick your phone.

Thanks for your reply.
You're saying that to install a pre-rooted Rom I should root first. Then install the rom.
Could you link me a good rooting software and flashing Roms?

I found a site which could Flash 5.1.1 W/O root using flash tools xperiafirmware.com, Could you tell me whether that method work ?
The best way is to flash kitkat and root with giefroot. 5.1.1 rooting methods by kingroot, sends your IMEI to an anonymous IP in China.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/general/guide-rootrecovery-how-to-root-install-t3017056 this is the common and safe rooting method. However, if you don't want to flash kitkat and stuff, you can flash Marshmallow ftf files(you can download them through Xperifirm) and root your phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/general/wip-sony-android-6-0-mm-t3337357 with this method
Thank you Guys for your help ! i flashed Marshmallow ftf and the phone is smooth and got rid of all the Prototype issues. thanks again.
i just got one off ebay with same issue, I am unable to get it to fastboot or bootloader mode with vol buttons, very strange, and nothing when plugged in with USB, does not turn on or display in win 10, i loaded the usb drivers for it but still nothing...
