My boot loader is blocked so i can't enable it, but is there any way i can flash my firmware with a new ROM?
For example when my mobile phone search for updates i could redirect that request so i could simulate an update with a new rom, so my phone would download it and install it, is that possible?
Or is there any way?
(The mobile phone it's already rooted)
Thanks
anyone?

You can flash stock rom firmware on locked bootloadet too! All you need is flashtool + search button

You could install a "stock" based rom with an unlocked bootloader. There is NO way to install a more recent version of android without bootloader access or an official update.
An example of a stock based rom is GIMLO for Xperia Tipo and Miro (and a few others I believe), runs the base firmware but is fully skinned and much faster than the stock ROM.

I'm Canadian user. I flash stock 4.3 stock Rom, using system update tried to update to 4.4, but got error, do I need to lock the bootloader? or can I just flash 4.4 stock firmware?

If you have them, you need to remove the root and custom recovery.
1- Do I need to unroot the phone(xperia L) and relock the bootloader to flash the stock rom?
2-Does flashing the stock rom removes CWM(I want to remove it)?
Thank's in advance!
you can return to stock firmware using FLASH TOOL for xperia ( google it )
With this you can lock the bootloader but before that flash the stock rom @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-l/general/sony-xperia-l-flashable-ftfs-locked-t2560642
and yes flashing stock rom with FLASH TOOL will also remove CWM
hit thanks if that helped because today i also returned to stock rom

Xperia l update
Hello guys. I'm new to this forum and i have one simple question.
I have an Xperia L c2105 rooted and with unlocked bootloader. Today when I connected it to my pc i received a notification from PC Companion with an update. I couldn't update it because the program said that I have a modified software or something like that.
Can I update my phone without losing root and with the bootloader unlocked? If i flash the stock rom update do i lose root and my bootloader will be locked?
PS: Sorry for my english, i hope you can help me deal with this...:good:
C'mon guys no one can help me?

Firstly,updates via pc companion or SUS requires lock bootloader..if you have TA backup just restored it and it will be updated officially.
Second...Flashing new firmware will erased everything and your bootloader still will be unlocked if throu flashtool..
Third...when using flashtool, there are a few choices you can make like saving your data and etc but its recommended to wipe everything..
your data etc can be backup using 3rd party app..
The easiest way to root is using extended stock kernel v6 kernel..It has built in root and its binaries..
Thank you very much. I didn't save TA when I unlocked the bootloader so I assume that I can't get it locked. So in this case I will do the update trough flashtool. After flashing the update I will just restore root. Have a nice day

Just download the respective firmware and flash it via Flashtool.
You won't lose the drm keys.

1. So no problem if 4.4.4 (.93) is rooted?
2. If it's OK. Any chance to root Lollipop like i rooted
.93? (Giefroot method)
Thanks
No you can't root 5.0.2 with that method.
If you want to retain root, the only way is to flash pre-rooted zip via NUT's dual recovery.
I must unlock the bootloader to do that?
No you do not.
But you must ask questions in the question and answer section.

Hi
I am running Xperia Z5 (E6653) unlocked bootloader, Stock MM (32.1.A.1.185), modified stock kernel (only added SuperSU, TWRP, DRM Fix).
Is there any way I can go back to stock Lolipop (stock MM will also work).
Edit: What steps do I need to restore TA partition and relock the bootloader?

you can use flashtool to download a firmware (XF icon) and from there you can flash a stock kernel and presumably you could use the tools you used to backup your TA to restore your TA which would lock your bootloader
