[Q] Root for .253 Update ? - Sony Xperia ZL

Hi,
I hope I'm posting on the right section. I'ld like to root my .253 ZL. I did install the update from scratch with SUS. With it root from .434 went away. Is there any method to root the .253 in a classic way without downgrading or something like this ?
Thanks !

Idk about just the kernel, maybe. But fit sure if you flash 434 root the upgrade you should be fine. No need to unlock.

Thanks, Downloaded at 8Mbits/Sec without problems.
Given it's a ftf, and I have 6.2.B.0.200 (leaked with root) already installed, I should be able to use flashtool on my Win7 PC and just flash the ftf onto my XPERIA S.
I'm guessing I'll lose root access.
If I then have a non-rooted 6.2.B.0.200 build, what is the 'preferred' way to restore/gain root access again?
Should I hang ten awaiting a pre-rooted build which one would installed via CWM/xRecovery and a /mnt/sdcard/ located ZIP ROM. (reset, clear caches and etc)
Just thinking I should really start with a clean build to reduce any oddities and move on from the 'leaked' version(s).

Install it and run towelroot apk

Since I tried, it isnt possible with easy rooting toolkit, you need to flash back .230 kernel > root it > flash, back the .283 kernel. you are done

Oh no, you need to have the stock ROM first (flash FTF first) then can flash the deodex zip

Well, it doesn't really matter, it will show in about phone section, but no difference in 1904 and 1905.
The only difference is the phones support different 3G network signal frequencies.
C1904 supports 3G on 850MHz compared to C1905 on 900MHz.
So if 3G works, you should be OK.
Does anyone know what/if anything has changed in 15.4.A.1.10?

The 3G frequencies are measured in MHz, these frequencies are nothing to do with battery. Different countries and network operators operate on different frequencies and instead of bundling all of the frequencies into one firmware Sony have done it so that only certain ones are used with a C1905 firmware and others are used with a C1905 firmware.

To be able to do an OTA to .10 you would have to be on stock with a locked bootloader and a restored TA partition. You can't do an OTA with an unlocked bootloader and I am sure you need your TA too.
It is best to just download the new ftf and flash it with flashtool.

[Q] Bootloader Allowed No, but yes.

Hello. My Xperia Z1 Compact has Bootloader Unlock allowed: No. However, if I try to fastboot (volume up while connecting to PC), the device’s LED light turns into Blue.
I read somewhere that this means I actually CAN unlock the bootloader. Is it safe to try?
Thank you!

You can't unlock if says "no", you will hard brick your phone if you flash a custom kernel or a Custom ROM for unlocked bootloader

Hello, Meloferz! Thanks for replying! Well, I don't want to flash any custom kernel, I only want to get Sony's firmware updates, because my phone has an audio Bug, which has been fixed by Sony since March. My carrier told me they would not release any software update for this model, so I would like to let the phone update...

One last question... Is it enough to get the same language firmware (spanish)? Or does it need to be one for my specific country/carrier (Perú/Movistar)? Because, I've got their latest fw installed, but that's not the one that fixes my audio bug.
