Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy!
first of all, thank you for posting this tutorial. I cant continue the installation because flashtool show me "Your device bootloader cannot be officially unlocked". i know only version D2203 can be officially unlocked. I am doing something wrong ?
PS: you said "ESPECIALLY FOR MODEL D2202 and D2212. "
I heard that some D2203 models have this problem. This method successfully works for D2202 & D2212.what's your firmware version?

Just follow the instructions carefully.. you'll eliminate the chances of bricking..!
Obviously bro.. Its gonna stay there .
Links are working now..
Could someone confirm if it really works in the E2243 model ?
I'm noob and I am afraid of performing the procedure and brick my phone.
I really need root because this model ( D2243 ) only has 2GB of internal storage .
I saw this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58115875&postcount=222
But i'm very afraid to do the procedures.
does the problem of getting usb'ed exist in this method?
Please screen shot my id [email protected]
Sir Please send me screen shot .......... thanks

Init.d support?
Hi,
The described steps worked fine 3 times for me (bricked for another reason ) on my D2212 Dual (Brazil). Now I am having a hard time to achieve a working init.d. Did try "universal init.d" and "init.d toggler" and none worked. Looking for flasheable zips found none E3 specific and so I didn't risk (yet).
Thanks!

So, since I've unlocked my bootloader to root I won't be getting updates from Sony. Checking XperiFirm there are two Brazil customized roms, one still on 4.4.2 (18.4.B.2.14/R5B) which I've used, the other missing files from Sony (18.4.B.2.14/R4B) and no US/intl there.
Any tip where can I find a 4.4.4 to flash?
DRM keys?
Brother What about DRM Keys?

I dont know whether your problem has been solved or not, I just try to help you and others who may have similar issue.
Installing flashtool driver in windows 8/8.1 need to disable driver signature in the computer setting:
Go to Settings
1.) Change PC Settings
2.) General
3.) Scroll down to Advanced Startup > Restart Now
4.) Trouble shoot
5.) Advanced options
6.) Windows startup options
7.) Restart
8.) Press F7
9.) Reboot
Now you can install the driver

Greetings and welcome to xda. I think this is the correct custom recovery for your device
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/twrp-recovery-micromax-canvas-pace-4g-t3350469
all the instructions are there, if you are unsure of anything just ask in the thread and the experts will help you. Once you have twrp on your device installing and backing up roms is a breeze all though there does not seem to be a great deal of development for your device
Good Luck

May i suggest that you do plenty of research first before attempting to root your phone, asking in the off=topic is not the best start. May i recommend that you work out what device you are after rooting and then go to the device forum and start to read anything you can find on rooting and also google how to root your device and see other advice you can learn first.
Also maybe have a look at this getting Started on XDA thread - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=961655
