Root for XA1 G3121 - Sony Xperia XA1 Questions & Answers

Has anybody found an exploit to root this handset?

Just read up on it. I rooted my G3123 with a quick search here. You will use a root method for the Ultra. I'll look for it when I have time and post you the link. The only problem is supposedly the image quality on pictures goes down, but I didn't notice anything on my phone.

My only problem is a locked bootloader!! Forgot to mention that

What's the specific error?
Have you tried setting the oem unlock in developer options?
Have you tried using flashtool?

Can someone please elaborate on the guide posted. It seems as though to flash the TWRP you FIRST need to flash that guys custom kernel, is this correct? I want to keep my current kernel while also installing TWRP, is this possible?

[Q] Root for .253 Update ?

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.

You can flash this 434 global version,
here is the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2196718
And flash with B1n4rY tools you can search on google for it

Rooting method KK - SM-N750

Please go thru. I have not gone thru yet though.

EDIT: Do not try this. Not working.
anyone tried?
It's nothing but flashing CF Auto root which doesn't work as I've already tried it after installing OTA yesterday which ended up bricking my phone
yeah right there is a comment below that post saying it doesnt work....
I've shared recovery.img and boot.img file from kitkat firmware in CF Auto root thread so hopefully @Chainfire should be able to update the same

Sorry for this. Yeah, I also tried, did not work.
I saw that this was posted on 20Aug and the firmware version mentioned on the blog also Kitkat firmware, that was the confusion.
Did you try towelroot? Maybe it will work... it is more safer than cflautoroot..
In my snapdragon note 3 neo with kitkat towelroot is working fine..

I saw this thread but it's only for people that can turn on oem unlock within there developer settings. I can't and the crom service apk will not work on my device. Do you know of any other way. All of my other samasung devices I was able to unlock the bootloader cause they was through TMobile. Now I buy OnePlus devices for my second phone to unlock the bootloader and root. The U.S. carriers need to chill on locking the bootloader

I can still help you.
But I want to ask you are you only rooting this device or you want to install custom ROM after rooting??
If you want only the root then I cannot help you with out unlocking boot loader but
If you want to install custom ROMs then I have solution for installing without rooting your device.
