hey
I said that I did not have root before the update
In the tutorial , we need to have a rooted phone and then update to version 11.0.A.7.5
It is no good for me

You don't have to downgrade!
Get this http://www.unlockroot.com/download.html (UnlockRoot Pro) - watch out for toolbars during installation, just uncheck them and press Next.
And click ROOT it works on latest firmware.

Seems to good to be true ..
Any one tested it ?

I did, today, it works perfectly. I am not making this up.
Edit: just enable USB Debugging and the program will do the rest. You really don't have to downgrade.

I belive you
It's just I've never heard of this magic thing before...

It didn't work earlier, it was fixed in that program 2 days ago I think and it can root 11.0.A.7.5 just fine.

Works like a charm on 11.0.A.7.5! The free version UnlockRoot will do it. You do not need to buy the pro version.

I will try it then
Can I unlock the boot loader with root ?

Does UnlockRoot need an unlocked bootloader?

No, it doesn't.

Do you have PC Companion installed on your PC and USB Debug enabled on your phone?

I had this problem and the only thing I could do is to root it on laptop. I guess drivers are messed up on your PC or something.

Can it root latest tipo update .22?
EDIT: http://www.unlockroot.com/unlockroot3.php
Here writes that support 11.0.A.0.26 The latest is .22

For Any Development or if you want to install any custom Rom you need to unlock bootloader which voids warranty..this happened to me when i was on Xperia U and was scared to unlock bootloader but i did and void my warrant and enjoyed all custom Rom's later i sold it But Yes If u want to install any custom Rom's you need Unlock Bootlader Which I Think Sony is not allowing for this device....

No, flashtool will work on totally stock unrooted bootloader locked devices(use the latest version). USB debugging must be ON and don't include anything with simlock.ta in the ftf and keep flashtool in simple mode only. As long as you select the check boxes in the image and you include what I did you should be fine.

Help Unlocking bootloader

Hi there
I want to unlock my bootloader and I tried through sony's website but I could not succeed.
How can I unlock it without sony's guiding website and installing Android Studio.
Any help plz?

Hello Billabomb75
First check if you can unlock your bootloader by entering *#*#7378423#*#* in the Phone app.
Then click service info and then click on configuration.
Under rooting status it should say bootloader unlock allowed to unlock the bootloader.
If it says bootloader unlock not allowed you cannot unlock your bootloader.

If you would like to backup your TA partition for warranty then check this forum https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292598.
The first thing to do to unlock your bootloader is to go to this https://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/unlock-yourboot-loader/ website and choose your device, then after clicking continue you will need to enter your email for a confirmation email and tick agree to terms and conditions and click submit.
After opening the link in the confirmation email it will ask for IMEI which you should enter in and tick the two agree to terms and conditions and click submit.
Now check your email again it should have the unlock code for your device.
Finally launch flashtool and click on unlock icon, then connect device in fastboot mode( if connected then disconnect phone from PC, power off device, while pressing volume up button connect your phone to your PC), now it should ask you for your unlock code which you can copy and paste from the email Sony sent you and then click unlock.
This should unlock your bootloader.

But that is only for the H8216 (single sim) and H8296 (dualsim) 6GB - there is no build for H8266 (dualsim) yet xD

This wouldn't need a drm fix?
This also switches the Rom from xperia to pure AOSP?
Without the special features of the XZ working?

Not yet working for my best buy bought h8266. Says phone not supported.

My Xperia H8266 is also not supported...yet or never?

The disclaimer in developer site says branded phones aren't supported. But can't you just flash another region's ftf to debrand yours? Does xflasher support XZ2?
