Currently srs root works with jb
I had successfully rooted my c1604 with it
Just click root(all methods)
It will connect to servers and start exploit3
When it displays the message just select the exploit on your mobile
Now u r rooted
It takes around 1 min to root

Ok. 1st use update service to fix the phone back to usable state. Then root the phone. Do these two steps first and after that, make your own clean .ftf just to be safe.

Yes I know. Have you run the update service? Didnt the pc asked you to turn the phone off? You say you only saw the xperia logo, so I told you to pull that battery out, since the phone not responding when you press that power button.

Rm30? Thats cheap. My place charges rm50 to fix this problem, so I fix it myself. 3 times already, just because I flashed something incorrectly. Its your choice if you decide to waste money and wait for about a week just to find out that those tauke use the same method as in here, use update service.

to update/repaid your phone is toooo much easy to do it...why to spend money? you can do the same as the phone market you tell but without spend any euro/dollar/yen/krown etc....do you agree?

<FLASH THROUGH CMW RECOVERY>this wat means?

Means put the mod .zip files to root of microsd. Then boot to cwm. Turn off the phone. Then turn on. When you see sony logo, press volume down multiple times until you see cwm. Remember you must already have root and cwm before doing this.

Hey buddy guess you are a beginner...
Rooting your phone does not delete anything if the method used for rooting is safe.so nothing will change after rooting.
But from then on you can do anything with system files..
So unless you delete them,nothing will be lost...
And accidentally if u mess up,u can use repair option in pc companion to fix your phone( if you are planning to use simple root tools.and not unlocking bootloader)
Ps: after rooting you will have a temptation to edit system.files

Well.. i am afraid to root my Xperia J.. What if i do something wrong? what will happen? Will i be able to fix it?

Don't panic that much....as a matter of fact I too did first time..
Just try some one click root tool
They are safer
Try unlock root or srs root..they are pretty much fast and easy..
Since you are a first timer don't think about unlocking bootloader and flashing super user

[SOLVED] Sony Xperia Miro Reboots Upon Boot

My friend has this phone, when I open it, it boots normally (Has battery) but the touch screen doesn't seem to respond and it automatically reboots itself in a loop. It has the original firmware,

*UPDATE* Actually it's Sony PC Companion and i now got it on my computer...

I tried to be more specific since i started the thread, sorry if i couldn't provide enough info for you my friend i will try to be more detailed for you now if i can.
So my friend has this phone, Miro, she doesn't know much from technology and stuff so i told her to help her out, and i want to get some help from previous owners or anyone that could possibly help me,
So i open the phone from the button, normally, it boots normally, and while on the pin screen, the touch screen doesn't work/respond, and it restarts itself in a loop going in the same position again and again, my idea was to update it, maybe it would work that way, today i will get the phone and try to sort the problem out, i downloaded Sony PC Companion on my pc, but i don't know if this is enough, that's why i need you now, maybe you can suggest me some other kind of solution..
Thanks for responding kreatonn

Sent it to Sony service like lozohcum post might help. The phone is still in warranty?? If still, then it's good.
Sent from my Xperia Miro using xda premium

I SOLVED THE PROBLEM MYSELF! and NO i never take my phone to support because it takes too long and it just comes back unsolved or replaced without actually fixing the problem
So after searching for many minutes of my life through sites and articles, i came up with one about recovering bricked phones, well i wasn't able to use Sony PC Companion because it wouldn't detect it. Or it would but it would restart itself and lose the connection in seconds...
The solution is to FLASH the original firmware with Flashtool
So to solve the mystery
1. Download the original firmware from the xperia collection: HERE
2. Download Flashtool
After all of this history, be sure to get all the drivers needed for the phone you have, if you have windows 7 it will download them automatically if you run and try to flash it since it detects and downloads them with windows update, or else you have to get drivers for your miro and install also the drivers that flashtool needs you to install (it has a folder drivers on it's installation directory)
So when you install Flashtool, Open Flashtool, and Turn off your phone (Remove the battery, and put it back after a few seconds), Do not turn on your phone, just put it on the USB port with the cable.
On Flashtool
1. Put the downloaded firmware into the installation directory of Flashtool, inside the folder, "Firmwares"
2. Open Flashtool (or 64bit version if your windows is 64bit)
3. Press the Thunder, and choose Flashmode
4. On the window that appears, choose MIRO's FIRMWARE and hit OK
Now it has this screen where it waits for you to do something with the usb. It's easy
5. While your phone is turned OFF completely and is probably charging on the USB, Press the VOLUME DOWN button and turn on your phone, the LED will turn GREEN or BLUE i think.
6. The program automatically detects the phone and starts flashing the original firmware
So after that i waited like 2 mins to complete the flashing on Flashtool, and 5 minutes to open the mobile (first time is always slow)
and it would respond, the touch screen and everything.
Thanks for your responses!
