Install Sony PC Companion, connect the phone to pc and the ADB drivers will be install automatically.
If you are in 11.2.A.0.33 firmware then you need to downgrade it to 11.2.A.0.31 in order to Root your phone.
You need to use Flashtool to downgrade your phone. Click Here to download Flashtool

You can try Custom ROM. Currently i am using AVD Rom, one of the best Stock based custom ROM for Xperia J, it works with both Locked & Unlocked Bootloader. Also you can try CM10.
Every ROM is different made in accordance with the user experiences and requirements.

Cm=cyanogenmod
And...in my opinion stock cm10 +riches kernel is faster than stock so if you want to overclock cpu and such things , install cm. but before , flash stock 4.0.4 dunno which build number it is XD
cause when not your gsm is not working
And another good thing, think you know it, riches kernel comes with dual recovery

When yes flash boot.img from cm then boot into recovery . Make factory reset,cache and dalvik wipe and go to mounts and storage , format system ... install avd rom , make permission fix (its in advanced) then dont reboot it , just take out battery then flash vengeance,simple or the stock kernel

No .you can't enter cwm after flashing ftf stock .587
cause it has no cwm pre-installed.
so flash a custom kernel for ICS then
enter cwm
do factory reset
wipe /system under mounts&storage
then flash ICS rom
.
.
that should do it

Hi, i'm from Colombia, and I have this Sony Xperia E C1504, Rooted with SRSRoot, but my current firmware is 11.3.A.0.56, and i find this http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-j-e/general/how-to-xperia-e-c1505-firmware-11-3-2-t2435957 (Firmware 11.3.A.2.23), I have some questions, i'm sorry i'm newbie here, doing this, the only thing i flashed was an old tablet with 2.3.3GBread.
1. Will this firmware work for me? ( i have C1504 and it says C1505, also, im From Colombia, does it matter?
2. My phone is rooted, do i need to flash the kernel when i move (if i can) to 2.23 in order to root like is shown?
Ty for your time, i just had to ask
Okay, firstly, there isn't any firmware with build number 11.3.A.0.56 - I'm taking it you have 0.47 instead of 0.56.
Sure, you can install it - I have a C1504 too, and I think it is safe to say that you can use any Xperia E firmware - even the Xperia E dual ones (C1604 or C1605).
and about root?
Sir, thank you, i have one more question. My phone is rooted with this current firmware, in order to root the 2.23 Firmware here's how to do it:
1. Flash kernel 11.3.A.0.47
2. Root your XE using Framaroot. (Gandalf exploit)
3. Flash kernel 11.3.A.2.23
But, since i've my phone rooted, do i need to follow the steps above?

Okay... I didn't even know that we had a 0.56 firmware....
@XperiaEss Unlocked bootloader and fastboot aren't needed to flash FTF files; only flash mode is required for that, and flash mode works on locked bootloaders too.

yessss...exactly....but can it be flashed through CWM?? (img,elf,sin)
So, can i do it, right? Flash that firmware to update it, i've used titanium backup, and everything is now in mi SD.
But, in order to root? do i need to flash kernel? is that the only way ?
@leolook Yeah, sorry we took it a bit off-topic. If you mean you want to upgrade to 2.23, downgrade to 0.47 kernel, use Framaroot and then upgrade to 2.23 kernel again - sure, no problems. LOng as you have a Titanium backup or Nandroid, you're fine.
@XperiaEss Those can be flashed via fastboot, which needs an unlocked bootloader (unfortunately).
@NSDCars5
so.... boot.img in roms work with flashing with CWM
but seperate boot.img files has to be flashed through fastboot?
if i put a boot.img in a zip wii it cwm flash?

Probably, but you also need to modify the updater-script (in META-INF/com/google/android) to extract the file. The line will read something like:
Code:
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p3");
(This one was from jjm34's CM10.)

CM10 has some problems with GSM; try this. Flash CM10 and the Nandroid. Backup everything with Titanium Backup. Flash the stock FTF (I know, I know, you've heard this before, but do this). Now boot the stock ROM once, set up your phone, blah blah. Now turn the phone off, and flash hsr0's kernel. Now in CWM or TWRP, do a factory reset, wipe /system, then install CM10 and Gapps. DO NOT FLASH BACK THE NANDROID! Restore from the Titanium backup instead. You're done!

Hello friends.

What do you mean by 'upgrading to a higher version'??
the latest version for jb is v7 and all those after that are for kitkat only.
Also you can flash a kitkat kernel and flash a kitkat rom WITHOUT installing JB first. It means that you can install r15 along with any kitkat rom without going through the installation of v7.
Hope this helps.

Installing modules flashing the kernel zip using recovery.
Follow these steps
Extract boot.img from the zip file.
Flash it using fastboot (I assume you know how to flash). After that your kernel will be installed. Then power on the phone and let it boot completely. Then copy the kernel zip that you downloaded and from which to you extracted boot.img to your internal storage.
Reboot your device and enter recovery. Flash the kernel zip (This step is called installing modules)
Done. Restart
Hope it helps
