Unfortunately, it does not work because Sony has prevent users from downgrading to mm via 7.1.1
sony prevented that since when?

I cant seem to downgrade from 7.1.1 to Marshmallow
You gotta help me
I spent 2 days fixing this
Flashtool worked for me with the "journalist" rom to downgrade to MM F8331. I followed guide, backed up TA first, used adb/fastboot to flash Androplus v4 kernel and recovery. Androplus kernel (v4) worked for MM, then used v26 for 7.1.1 stock rom (Ger cust). Have TA_poc modified kernel now.

i've single sim version with (unlock allowed BL : NO)
is there a way to root yet ?
or all hope is gone ?
Sorry for thread stealing say you already had TA backed up, could i root without losing everything, especially the contents in /data/data while being on 7.1.1 with a locked bootloader that does allow unlocking. Please help - locked myself out of a bitcoin wallet :crying:

It's really good news mate. I entered my email and IMEI, got unlock code.
I think our device will be able to unlock on next update. Because it says 'Rooting status:No' on this version.

After unlocking our bootloader,can we install a fully working kit kat rom?...if they exist
---------- Post added at 11:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:04 AM ----------
I also came across a file called projectconfig.mk in /system/data/misc and saw the line "MTK_FORCE_89T_CPU" and other values with NFC...once developers start with custom kernels after unlocking the bootloader,does this mean we can overclock our XC to 1.7ghz and somehow add nfc support (sorry for my noobiness,I'm a noob...noobing around!)

no you cant install nfc support couse is a hardware and not software problem. overclock will be possible untill we install a modded worked kernel

This is great news.
Re-test all the kernel builds i've compiled, and check if they boot
The projectconfig.mk is an config file used for kernel compilation...
Its present on my kernel source..
Regards
Any person check it? And How result?

1. if I unlock the bootloader everything on my phone will be wiped?
2..if I do root and unlock the bootloader in my current KitKat i will be able to upgrade to the lollipop?
3.Lollipop already have root? it supports the MultiROM?
4.if I root now be able to upgrade to the lollipop and then root again? but if there is an update after 5.0 will be able to use it (ex:5.1 minor fixes) with root?
Sorry for many questions

1. Unlocking the boot loader will wipe everything...yes... You need to take backup of everything before unlocking..
2. You need to flash custom recovery to root your phone... My sugesstion is don't flash anything as of now or root.
If you root your phone, you will get ota,but you can't install it... So once you installed lollipop,you root it..
3. Lollipop will support multirom..wait for some dev to develop it..
4. Rooting is easy.. There are plenty of guides there for rooting.. Wait for few days to get lollipop and root it..

5... You can't install any official update if you root it.. But you can flash the update if any one created a flashable zip

thanks for answering the other questions .
then I have to wait for the kernel to become compatible with the bootloader and the system itself correct?

Why are you doing this?
You have an unlocked bootloader (You claim to have been running Cm12 in another thread)
Just flash the latest firmware and the advanced stock kernel from the development section.
In fact you should send @zxz0O0 a PM and see how you can help the locked bootloader bugs be worked out for the Z3

You need to unlock the bootloader to root your phone. But there's no way to get the code. Older devices can be unlocked with DC-Unlocker but the P20 isn't supported yet. Only people who received the bootloader unlock code last year can root at the moment.
