4) Once your xperia e has fully booted up, go back onto flashtool and select the ARROW Icon and browse for the Framaroot APK & Install.
Why is the ARROW Icon in my flashtool unclickable? It is gray, not black like the BOLT Icon.

Arrow icon is for isntalling apks.
Go to phone settings,developer options>enable usb debugging and then security>Allow installation from unknown sources,and then connect phone to usb.

but I have those options on in the Xperia and the flashtool still doesn't recognize the debugging as on.
I have installed Sony PC Companion because I read somewhere that the drivers would be fully intalled byy this program but the problem remains the same

Root your Xperia E
Before proceeding any further you need
to download the required stuff in order to
be ready to Root Sony Xperia E (C1504/5) -
New Firmware 11.3.A.2.23 or Old

Now that you have downloaded both of
the above mentioned stuff you can now
move on to the procedure section.
On your Sony Xperia E
go to Settings->
Developer options->
Check USB Debugging .
Again go to Settings->

Now Turn off your
Antivirus because it
sometimes conflicts in
between the process.
You can activate it
again after the rooting

Now connect your
Xperia E to PC and open
AdbDriverInstaller .
Click on Install.
This software
automatically

I was able to find an easy method of rooting and installing clockwork mod recovery on the Sony Xperia tipo ST21a (should also work on the st21i model) with a locked bootloader.
What you need:
1) a Windows PC
2) a sony xperia tipo
3) a working internet connection
4) usb cableto connect your phone
5) unlockroot pro
6) the zip file for cwm
so first of all, we need to download the program unlockroot pro [37.94MB] download link is here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0By158glMMBkhMVNBTGtyYnZpem8/edit
once its downloaded, run the installer and follow the instructions provided. after this is installed, run it. you will be asked for a code, just enter this: URPTKVMURDKBFEYNOFUK
there shoul be obvious direction from there to root the phone
after the phone has rebooted, make sure you have usb debugging enabled (settings -> development -> usb debugging) and you will need the zip packege to install cwm which can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-j-e/development/tipo-clockworkmod-t2003069 along with the instructions on ow to install it (it's really straight foward )
thanks, and i hope this helps
