Thanks for the tip , downloaded "D2303_18.0.C.1.13_CE" 4.3 Stock from a website flashed throught Flashtool then rooted with TowelRoot is nice because is generic not branded but the big problem came after 4.4.2 update because it was not OTA i updated via PC then the root seems to be not present i also checked " Survival mode " on SuperSU Pro but it seems to work only on OTA updates , can anyone recomend me a Generic firmware wich allows OTA up to 4.4.4 Please? Thanks in Addvance

Flash stock 4.3, root it with TowelRoot but don't update supersu, wait ota from 4.4 when finished use easy root to gain access to system then update SuperSu.
If it doesn't work I'll send you the link that i used when i get home.

Yes what you said before it has logic but the problems are the next .. TowelRoot don't install a SuperSU or Superuser App, and the next problem is that the firmware i talked about the ota are up to 4.4.2 not 4.4.4 , that's the reason i asked for a ota up to 4.4.4 firmware bro ... you want to say if i wait for ota 4.4.4 will come ? when i wanted to update from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 was telling me to connect to pc and update trought it ...
EDIT: Send me the link anyway Thanks

I don't know unless you try it , i suggest you to change you firmware btw to install a "fresh one" , then when you are on 4.3 root with towelroot without making any changes, then update to 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 via ota , when you reached you wanted firmware version then install supersu & root checker (but don't update supersu binary) from google play just to be sure , when you finished with downloading the tools open easyroot & root it and let the magic happen , after that update the supersu binary check it with rootchecker reboot & have fun best wishes.

Follow steps in post no #9, find towel root via Google root 4.3 with tr.apk not with Flashtool but don't update anything except Ota. When done use Easyroot to gain access to system update SuperSu.

hmm but my playstore dissapered for some reason....

It shouldn't. That's weird. Maybe you deleted accidentally.
Sent from Xperia M2 D2303

fixed it i think it happen cuz i restarted my phone while the playstore was updating. i fixed it by factory reseting the phone from the settings. the root dident go away, btw do you know how to unlock bootloader when go to that service menu it says unlock allowance : no or somer like that. does that mean it is impossible to do it without paying?

You don't have to downgrade!
Get this http://www.unlockroot.com/download.html (UnlockRoot Pro) - watch out for toolbars during installation, just uncheck them and press Next.
And click ROOT it works on latest firmware.

Seems to good to be true ..
Any one tested it ?
I did, today, it works perfectly. I am not making this up.
Edit: just enable USB Debugging and the program will do the rest. You really don't have to downgrade.
I belive you
It's just I've never heard of this magic thing before...
It didn't work earlier, it was fixed in that program 2 days ago I think and it can root 11.0.A.7.5 just fine.

Works like a charm on 11.0.A.7.5! The free version UnlockRoot will do it. You do not need to buy the pro version.

Do you have PC Companion installed on your PC and USB Debug enabled on your phone?
I had this problem and the only thing I could do is to root it on laptop. I guess drivers are messed up on your PC or something.
Can it root latest tipo update .22?

[Q] Stuck after Sony Logo

I just rooted my Xperia L using this method http://www.waledacdroid.com/2014/01/how-to-root-sony-xperia-l-c2104-c2105_16.html.
After the process I downloaded Root checker to verify my root access. It says it has root access already. So I assumed that my unit is already rooted. Next thing I did was I downloaded DextroDroid v3 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-l/development/rom-dextrodroid-v2-t2598697) and follow the steps to install it.
I followed the procedure properly but I was stuck at after Sony logo and I can't pass through it. Please help.

to install custom ROM you must unlock bootloader,to root you can flsah kernel like's thunderzap or phantom kernel so you can flash latest superuser
but if you install cm11 you doesn't need to root again,cause it's already rooted

You have to unlock your bootloader.

If sony give us new updates/rom ( which seems unlikely with each passing days ), you can't update your phone via OTA or via PC. You have to wait for someone to share the correct regional ftt file for your phone. Or you can create a ftf files for your device. There are numbers of good tutorials here in XDA or user google. :good:

"N/A" while fetching latest release under FlashTool

Hi,
I'm currently in a little mess. I was under ExistenZ and I want to try the latest 7.1.1 Nougat. So I relock my bootloader in order to flash the .223 via Flashtool.
When I'm trying to download the firmware via XperiFirm, I click on "Chek all" and I have always "N/A" instead of see the firmware number :/
I'm under Linux Mint 18.
Any hint to bypass this problem ?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I'm currently in a little mess. I was under ExistenZ and I want to try the latest 7.1.1 Nougat. So I relock my bootloader in order to flash the .223 via Flashtool.
When I'm trying to download the firmware via XperiFirm, I click on "Chek all" and I have always "N/A" instead of see the firmware number :/
I'm under Linux Mint 18.
Any hint to bypass this problem ?
Thanks in advance

I would try reinstalling Flashtool first and see if that helps.
Why did you relock your bootloader though? I don't think this is a required step.

I reinstall multiple times, also try the XperiFirm Windows version using mono ! Same issues :/
I relock it because I want to try the pure stock experience once a time

Well then I don't know how to fix that problem.
If you want though...
I have uploaded 6.0.1 / 7..0 and 7.1.1 Firmwares for both Xperia XZ and Xperia XZ Dual to my google drive.
If you wish to use it here is the link to the folder: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1-5Lr_Sntl5bzU2eEZCaFA3azg
I don't remember exactly from which countries the firmwares I downloaded and uploaded there are.
Most are either Dutch or Customized Germany firmwares.
Otherwise if you want a different specific firmware, you'll have to figure out a way to download it yourself

I'll try this, thanks a lot
The country of the firmware matter a lot ? Or I can still have the French language and the OTA ?

No problem.
You can still change language yes.
And you can still get OTA updates (when bootloader is relocked)

By the way did you have any problems relocking the bootloader? Did you restore TA backup first or what was your process.
I'm interested to know

This is not the first time I relock the BL. I wrote a guide, look my signature and this is the last step

Okay I've just read the last step and it seems clear to me. Just pushing back TA backup to phone using ADB automatically relocks bootloader. Didn't know that yet
Thanks.. didn't read that part very well yet, although I did use your guide to get rooted when I just bought my XZ a few months ago :good:

Xpericheck.com also put links to ftf of some variants, so this can e used as a substitute for not working xperifirm. The country variants doesn't differ much - mostly by the number of preloaded apps (some have facebook/spotify/avg installed as system apps) and by type of icons shown (nfc icon, lte vs. 4g icon, in NOBA you have icon indicating 2g/3g/4g even while roaming).
