Search.
I don't think . 55 (stock) can be rooted as of now.. Though I have seen some Pre -Rooted .55 stock Rom here in XDA..
The only way to root. 55 is to flash the Pre-Rooted .55 Rom..
There are at least two threads on how exactly how one does it.
I would know, I did it myself by searching, not expecting everyone to spoon-feed me the answers.

Then Try to post in the right section first. Otherwise Mods will close/delete your thread.
Which ROM you have? Gingerbread or ICS?
And what is the build number? GB - 0.42/0.58/0.62 or ICS -4.0.3 or 4.0.4
I have Gingerbread 2.3.3
Build number 3.0.1.a.0.145
You're running an old version of android. Not even 2.3.4
But if you just want to root this version, just search for Gingerbreak. You just need to transfer it to your phone and install it like a regular .apk
Cheers!

Well Xtacy already suggested you the way, which is right.
Can you upgrade the Android Version, Like the latest Android 4.0.4. That is easily Rootable.
You can also upgrade to Android 2.3.4 [Build 0.42 or 0.58] which is easily rootable to using Doomlord kit.

Hi all
My phone is a Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 (GT-I8160) PDA:LD8 PHONE:LD8 CSC:LD3 (XEO).
I rooted it some weeks ago with this method : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2006183
Kies ask me to update my phone for this version : PDA:LK6 / PHONE:LK6 / CSC:LK1 (XEO)
If I update my phone, should I root again my phone ? With the same method, or an other because of the different version (was LDA8, will be a LK6) ?
Thanks for your help.
Sorry for my bad english :laugh:
Unroot it first... Then root..

Alright, first of all.. please learn to search the forums. This is to avoid spam and repetition of questions. There's a Q and A thread for Ace 2, which is found here.
You might ask, "why will I post there?" Most users are subscribed to that thread, waiting to see if someone posted a new question thus, increasing the chance that your question will be seen since most users are accessing the forums from their smartphones, they tend to overlook the other parts of the forums.
If you have time, PC with Odin, and common sense then try this method. Flashing a pre-rooted stock rom (Note: This method will not increase your counter). As for the LK6 firmware, see this
For the latest firmwares (pre-rooted), see the thread here
Hi everyone, I'm sorry if this has been answered before as I've actually found many threads but they all seem to redirect to the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
My questions is as follows; using the method above, how can I update an Xperia S that is already rooted without loosing root? The thread above seems to explain how to root altogether, but I just want to update and keep the root. Thanks in advance for any help provided. My Xperia S is on 6.1.A.0.452 and I'd like to have 6.1.A.2.45. I've also seen people talk about JellyBean but as far as I know that's not available on the Xperia S until February, how are these people getting it?
.45 and .50 can be rooted...

Could I bother you with a guide based on the method shown in the following link? I would really appreciate it. I'm totally a noob, but I learn really fast, so guidance for this rookie will guarantee you that I will learn to do things on my own. Thanks!

Just use the binary root tool at the top of the development forum

Till now, the only way to get a rooted jellybean on locked bootloader is to flash a prerooted firmware or create your own prerooted firmware
here is a tutorial for same

Thank you for giving GOOD advice.
thread moved and closed
Just got my ZL and I must say (till now) this phone is kickass. As you might have imagined, I cannot wait to root it, but I have also seen talk of an update on the XDA forums, I have been through tons of threads on both rooting and upgrading, but am still a bit confused.
My ZL has the follwoing specs:
Model C6506
Firmware; 10.1.A.1.434
Android OS: 4.1.2
So the question is, which is the best way to go for rooting/updating the software?? Thanks

Personally, i would do the following :
1. Update the official way via Sony PC Companion, which should bring you to Firmware 10.3.1.A.0.244
2. Follow one of the guide to root.
3. With it rooted, install CWM / TWRP.
This is my preferred method, others may do otherwise.
Thanks.

This is not a question that should clog up a dedicated development section. That's what the general section's for.
Question don't belong in Development, thread moved to Q&A.
Thanks
Sorry for posting in the wrong section.... I'll give takagen's suggestion a try. I'l llet you know. Thanks.
Tried updating via PC companion but no updated firmware available. Any way to force the update or flash it?? Thanks.
Nevermind. Im reading doomlords thread.
