Just testing the Sony C3. 470 Lollipop firmware. Only bug is the front camera, too dark when you're taking pictures. Many users are facing this problem but aside from that everything is smooth. As you can see I managed to install root successfully and without problems, managed to get system access or mount as well.
Ps. If you really need the front cam, I suggest don't go for the update, front cam is really bugged at this release.
Feel free to ask, and happy updating!
Hi, can you explain what method did you use to obtain Root?
I understood that you had to be obliged to Unlock your Bootloader and for this model C3 (2533), it was not possible.

My experience is that you can not root a Sony equipment that has locked the Bootloader. Perhaps what is shown here, is that installed a recovery and then the SuperSU, however, he can not enter the system partition. It should be then a semi-root.
When you can not unlock a bootloader, then there is the option for someone to build a separate kernel, it should flash after installing a new ROM, using the Flashtool. This usually takes time for someone to develop.
Spanish: Mi experiencia es que NO se puede rootear un equipo Sony que tiene el bootloader bloqueado. Tal vez lo que se muestra es que instaló un recoverý y luego el SuperSu, sin embargo, él no podrá escribir la partición de sistema. Debería ser entonces un semi-root.
Cuando no se puede desbloquear un bootloader, entonces existe la alternativa que alguien construya un Kernel separado, que se debe flashear posterior a instalar una Rom nueva, usando el Flashtool. Esto normalmente toma tiempo en que alguien lo desarrolle. Asi lo tuve que hacer con un Xperia ZR. Esperé 6 meses y alguien hizo un Kernel.

For me, is quite different because i was able to root all the sony devices I had even with the locked bootloader. Seems that some difficults exists to root some devices because of the kernel's date and no one has been able to build a tool to root those devices, just like Giefroot or Xperia Root and also Towelroot. We must wait for a developer´s patience and availabilty to create some tool. until then, we're out of the root process.
Spanish Para mi es un tanto diferente por que fui capaz de rootear todos los telefonos sony que he tenido, incluso con el BL bloqueado. al parecer, existen todavia dificultades para rootear debido a las fechas de los kernels y nadie ha sido capaz de crear una herramienta para rootear esos dispositivos como por ej: giefroot, xperia root o el towelroot. Debemos esperar la paciencia y disponibilidad de un desarrollador para crear una herramienta y hasta entonces estamos fuera del proceso del root.
We reached the same: Wait

Hello, in the end we reached the same: Wait. Yes, I have also had many models Xperia, almost all with locked bootloader (allowed: NO) and all known tools, only Vroot or iRoot (of mgyun.com) has worked for me. Specifically, for the Xperia ZR months passed and nothing, so I found a method for rooting, flashing a modified kernel. Almost a year later, I could see that with iRoot could already rooting effortlessly, like the M2.
Just get to root my phone, I'll post here.
Spanish: Hola, al final llegamos a lo mismo: Esperar. Así es, yo tambien he tenido muchos modelos Xperia, casi todos con el bootloader bloqueado (permitido: NO) y de todas las herramientas conocidas, sólo el Vroot o iRoot (de mgyun.com) me ha funcionado. Especificamente, para el Xperia ZR pasaban los meses y nada, así que encontré un método para rooting, flasheando un kernel modificado. Casi un año despues, pude ver que con el iRoot ya se podía rootear sin mayor esfuerzo, al igual que el M2.
Apenas consiga rootear mi celular, lo postearé aquí.
If you can NOT unlock your Bootloader, this post is for you!
I admit, the program from our Chinese friends of Kingroot.net, it works. Root is obtained, but temporarily, since restarting the phone, turns to a semi-root. Okay, it's not the most optimal if you need constant access as root, but at least you can install an advertising blocker like Adaway or Adfree, modify the host system tables and reboot, independent no longer have full root , goodbye to advertising!.
I recommend it until we have a definitive solution to obtain Root.
Spanish: Lo reconozco, el programa de los amigos chinos de Kingroot.net, sí funciona. Se obtiene Root, pero de manera temporal, ya que al reiniciar el celular, se vuelve a un estado de semi-root. De acuerdo, no es lo más optimo si necesitas constantes accesos como root, pero al menos, se puede instalar un removedor de publicidad como el adAway o el Adfree, modificar las tablas hosts del sistema y al reinicar, independiente que ya no tengas full root, adiós a la publicidad!.
Lo recomiendo hasta que tengamos una solución de Root definitivo.

Latest Update solves the front cam issue !!
Hi Guys.
Hey!....so far....(thinking when we started to find a way to root the C3 with locked bootloader) all exposed here is good news...
And even if the Chinese version work to gain root, even partially, it's still good news...
and...to wait for a more Stable or official way to get the full root....I sort off...think....mmm....is now going to happen soon enough..
Today I got Lollipop for this one (wich was a gift for my mother) so still I need to at least make to work this app: SDCard Caches plus Booster Pro.
Any help on that will be Super appreciated! :good:

Good afternoon, I have two boards, an acer iconia b1 with old android, I can't update it to a newer version that lets me use zoom or meet and another Chinese tablet with the same problem, is there any way to switch to a more android version new to be able to use those applications?

To upgrade the Android of your devices you need a Custom Recovery ( like CWM, TWRP ) suitable to your devices, and a Custom ROM matching your devices.

Hi all. I have a Motorola G3 xt1542 Android 5.1.1 with root that recently installed a ROM taken from this forum (Personal Argentina (1GB) - XT1542_OSPREY_RETLA-PERAR_5.1.1_LPI23.72-43_cid12) and I had no problems installing it. My problem is that android is very very very heavy, in fact I am using a Samsung with the almost obsolete 4.4.4 kitkat and it works much better.
I've heard there are Android 7, 8, and even 9 roms for this model, but I'm not really going to install until I'm sure. I need a stable and fluid rom and android, as clean as possible of applications. Please, I need your help, since I am still paying for a Moto E7 plus that was stolen from me and I will not be able to have another mobile for a while. I hope you can help me. Thank you very much in advance. Greetings to all

Mi problema es que android es muy muy muy pesado, de hecho estoy usando un Samsung con el casi obsoleto kitkat 4.4.4 y funciona mucho mejor.
He oído que hay roms con Android 7, 8 e incluso 9 para este modelo, pero realmente no voy a instalar hasta que estar seguro. Necesito una rom y android estable y fluida, lo más limpia posible de aplicaciones. Por favor, necesito su ayuda, ya que todavía estoy pagando un Moto E7 plus que me fue robado y no podre tener otro móvil por un tiempo. Espero que puedan ayudarme Desde ya muchas gracias.
