You can't root without unlocking the bootloader. Bootloader is a sort of a security lock to prevent any messing about with the firmware.

Can u check link that its guide for installing recovery then if I flash kernel through recovery then it will root on lock boot loader
In Sony its possible that we can root without unlocking boot loader
Please reply
I don't want to lose my warranty
Thanks in advance
Even the method in the link requires an unlocked bootloader. You can't root without unlocking the bootloader. Either way of you root you'll lose your warranty.

@azhar.munshi.... It can't be stated more plainly than @rudi_j7 has put it ----YOU CANNOT ROOT OR INSTALL A CUSTOM RECOVERY WITHOUT UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER ---- it is no use trying to quote links stating how it is done to Moto G devices because those links don't exist, and what is the point of quoting "Sony" devices when we are dealing with the Motorola Moto G.
Owners of Moto X and E are able to root without unlocking bootloader
Rooting without unlocking the bootloader usually involves an unpatched exploit of some kind. An OTA could make you lose root on a permanent basis, and you may or may not be able to flash kernels, which would be an issue for custom ROMs.
Either way, no such method has been posted for the Moto G yet.
can i root moto g without unlocking BL n if yes then does it void my warranty
I think there's a way to root in 4.4.2 without unlocking the bootloader (tethered root, though, and /system will still be write-protected). Search the forum.
I have zero access to a PC. I want to temp root in order to unlock the boot loader with sunshine.
Any alternatives on how to temp root without using a PC?
I have put together a guide; here's the thread

So far the only method that doesn't involve unlocking of the bootloader is that you root the 4.3 firmware and update to 4.4.4 via OTA.
Maybe if developers find out something for Xperia Z3 we can take advantage of it. All firmwares after August 2014 can't be rooted with ordinary tools.
Is there any root method available currently?
Any luck with root
Any new info guys, withe the root an bootloader??
