[Q] Rooting Lollipop 14.5.A.0.242 Question - Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello!
First of all I'm New to Z1 Compact Thread so Please bear with me
Basically, I want to Root my Z1 Compact running 5.0.2. And Flash Custom ROM afterwards. Now my Question is, do i need to unlock bootloader first before rooting? or can i just root my device first and then unlock my bootloader after? And is there any direct way to root 14.5.A.0.242? or i need to downgrade first to kitkat and then do the root process? Any reply is greatly appreciated. Thanks! :good:

[Q] root on stock rom

Hi all,
I have a new xperia z1 compact with the mobile branding on Android 4.3. There are some root features which I used on my old xperia s. But I want to use the pre-installed stock ROM on my z1c.
So my question is: is is possible to root the pre-installed ROM and preserve the capability of updating my phone from Sony?

Root for 14.3.A.0.757?
Hi,
Am quite new to the sony xperia device and if this is the wrong place to post this question, kindly ignore..
I have a Sony Xperia z1 Compact (D5503) device running 14.3.A.0.757 (latest sony update using PC Companion). This device has not been unlocked and has not been rooted at all.
My question - is there any way to root this phone at the current level i.e. 14.3.A.0.757 (with or without downgrading) without unlocking the bootloader?
Thanks for any support in advance.

If your BL is locked then you'll need to downgrade using the guide in the general section.

How to upgrade SM-T805 4.4.2 to 6.0.1 with existing root and knox 0X0 ?

Hi @ all,
I need a little help to upgrade my SM-T805 from 4.4.2 to 6.0.1 (T805XXU1CPH5).
I had rooted my SM-T805 in the past with this [GUIDE] How to root without tripping knox - Kitkat and Lollipop, Locked bootloader
Now my question is - It is possible to upgrade to 6.0.1 with keeping root an knox at 0x0?
And when it is possible i need some hints.
My first idea was to download the firmware and flash it with Flashfire but I do not know if this is the right way and whether there are certain things to consider.
Thanks in advance

P.S.: Sry 4 my bad english, I'm a german guy
I think you cannot. since mm need new bootloader. and kingroot no longer working.
