Root J without unlock? - Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E

For xperia Ray there's a way to root it without official unlock therefore without loosing the warranty.
Is there such a way for xperia J?

You will get a flashtool plugin that will unlock the bootloader and relock it too then get a coustem kernel vengence or cm10 vengence will give you cwm and then get flashable zip of supersu and flash it
Safest method

Why not try this?
1. Go find universal adb installer.
2. Find unlockroot offline version (try to get the latest version, online version forces us to install crap before actually installing it).
3. Press the big root button.
Now using:
Sony Xperia tipo ST21i
stock 4.0.4
11.0.A.4.22
(rooted, locked bootloader)

Thank you all, I'll try

[FTF][ST21i] Xperia Tipo 11.0.A.4.22 INTL-GENERIC

Made a FTF out of PC Companion just yesterday after getting the phone.
download here
If anyone is collecting FTF links into any thread, they are free to update it there too
(Tested working, does not relock a unlocked bootloader either)

Do I need to relock the bootloader to use PC Companion for latest stock?

I want to go back to stock for now Xperia J, and do I need to relock the bootloader or just use SEUS/PC Companion to flash latest stock?
Thanks in advance.
If you are on a custom rom then you need to download the stock ftf file and flash it using flashtool to get PC Companion or SEUS to work.
You don't need to unlock bootloader.
Yes you need

I'm asking about re-locking it, it is already unlocked. Can I have more opinions? I don't want to brick the phone.
download the ICS ftf, flash, then relock bootloader.

Flash this via flashtool.
Credits to xperia.cz for this
First flash stock ftf or you will brick your phone

Yeah does it make any difference?
Just asking. I know it doesn't.

Sony PC companion requires locked bootloader to work bro.
Since you are already on unlocked bootloader, you can just download the ftf file you want and flash it using flashtool. Using flashtool you can flash firmwares on both locked and unlocked bootloaders
You need a locked bootloader and any stock ROM to update through PC companion.

Its easier following these steps:
1- I was in 11.2.A.0.21 CE;
2- Flashed 11.0.A.7.5 CE (unbranded) with flastool WITH wipping data (if you don't select "wipe data", the phone doesn't boot);
3- Rooted with UnlockRoot;
4- Updated over the air to 11.2.A.0.31;
5- Reinstalled Superuser from the Play Store.

It would be advised to flash the stock Sony images via the Sony flash tool like in this tutorial: http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/xperia-device-restore-stock-firmware-xperiaz-xperias-506415
