DRM key after flashing stock - Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys,
maybe it is a stupid question but i have unlocked my bootloader and restored TA Backup a couple of month ago. Then i flashed back full stock rom with flashtool unrooted as it is. Now i want to root and flash my e6653 again. Do i need to make a new backup and restore of my DRM Key or is it already done by making this earlier ?
Thanks guys

Im sure you dont need to make a new backup.

So can i direct Flash a custom Rom and rooted Kernel or Do i need to repack and root my Stock Kernel First?

First backup is OK. You can use this TA.img anytime.
No need to do this again. You are already BL Unlocked.

[Q] I need to relock bootloader and unroot to flash the stock rom?

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 flash ftf and you're back as stock
just flash the ftf of your version, root it, then restore your TA backup, then unroot. STOCKED NOW!
Thanks for your reply. I got some questions. I have 15.3.A.1.14 but in pc companion shows that i have the older one. If i flash the ftf ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-l/general/sony-xperia-l-flashable-ftfs-locked-t2560642 ) 15.3.A.1.14 will everything be ok? And when i flash this ftf will i have stock kernel, rom and everything? Could you please tell me step by step what to do because im a little bit confused and i dont wanna do a fool mistake and destroy my device Thanks in advance.

You can flash the firmware provided that it's actually the same as the name says. Just perform a clean flash, root your device, restore TA backup and again flash. Your device will come back to the default state.
Hit thanks if it worked

Unlocked bootloader root

Hey guys I am on Android 5.1.1 which. 546 firmware.
I have unlocked bootloader now I want to root my phone and install twrp.
I need help on how to do it.
Thanks in advance
Wrong way round.... You shoukd root then unlock. That way you can take a backup of your ta partition. Now you have lost it (and your drm keys) forever.
But to get root here is just one way, just fastboot an insecure kernel, (any from a custom rom such as cm) and then flash any rooted rom. Dont forget to flash a compatible kernel to the rom you flashed afterwards. Do not boot the phone in between each step
Close it then bro @gregbradley

sony z3 d6653 lolipop 23.4.A.0.546 root help

i unlocked the bootloader but theirs no way to root without downgrading to kk..
is theres a way fo rooting with this update can i have it
im new to sony and had a bricked problem yesterday
played a little bit with flash tool and managed to get out of it with the Unlocked bootloader..
And you were aware of such keywords like "camera DRM", "TA partition", "backup" before unlocking, right?
I've aswered you elsewhere too, but, the procedure is kinda universal (for Z phones that is): downgrade to KK, giefroot, XZDR, update to pre-rooted LL.
What's your issue with that? You do it once and you just flash the next version, keeping data, but wiping dalvik&cache.
i didnt keep the drm backup...
now i dont think i can restore it
it doesnt matter all i need to do it to root this and have the full power to my self
done and rooted and everything works fine..now i nned toknow if theres any pure android marshmellow available??
...
To root with an unlocked boot loader is the easiest thing, just flash an insecure kernel.
As for ROMS, head over to the development section and take a browse there.

If you flash the stock firmware with Odin you do not lose your data.
If you want to completely back to its original state, you have to make after a factory reset.
Without Factory Reset You keep your data [emoji41]
