Please check this thread for FULL ROOT of the Xperia M with locked bootloader:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
Some of you who may have owned previous Sony phones may recognise the legendar Bina4y, he has been rooting Sony phones for years.
Just to let you know, root option 1 worked for me. You will see SU installed at the end. This is now the simplest and fullest root available on the Xperia M that I have used.
Bootloader
SharpnShiny said:
If like me and others you had trouble rooting for various reasons and don't want to go to extreme methods just for a simple root, know that there are other options out there!
One that is becoming very popular on XDA, is used on many threads I can confirm works for the Xperia M. One thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2434453
The root procedure is here: http://www.mgyun.com/vroot
It comes from a Chinese source but don't be intimidated if you can't read everything. When you download it, if offers everything in English. It's really simple, a lot like the 'One Click Root' from past versions of Android.
Enjoy! :good:

I think it's half root. None of my app have problems getting root access with it, but if I try to edit the build.prop, it does reboot.

Huh? Have any mods on XDA looked into this? I read a lot of tech news (like many on here) and I keep hearing more positive things about it.
Don't get me wrong, I do not work for them in any way! If Doomlord or any other super-pros get FULL root on this I will happily use it.

Kingroot work for me on latest build D8510g, but it did not work in D851e. Purpledrake I never worked for me and I could not do root. so I used kingroot

Kingroot 4.1 failed for me on D85120g with the message, "Root Failed no strategy now". It looked promising at first as it had a root now buttom but root checker says no root access.
Same issue
I have the same set-up on my g3 device and have tried both one-click root methods and get no where.. I've also tried stump, kingo root, and towelroot with no results either... Any ideas??? I have all adb and android sdk setup on pc(win10) with all versions of consumer and dev drivers..

Title pretty much says it all. Does using KingRoot on Z1 Compact 14A.5.0.270 delete the DRM keys ? Note that it roots without Unlocking the Bootloader.
Thank you.

No. It doesn't. At least my keys weren't affected. But immediately after rooting with Kingroot I used the replace Kingroot with SU program and everything went fine.

Kingroot is currently not working on 5.1.1. The requests have been made. Check out the Kingroot XDA thread recent entries. There are other rooting options in this forum.

Hi mate,
what method did you use to root 5.1.1?
I spent hours last night clearing 5gb of space on c:\ so I could update my z1 to 5.1 using pc companion.
Finally got it updated and now I realise kingroot doesnt work on 5.1 yet.
Any pointers would be much appreciated,
Cheers

One user in Kingroot thread says they rooted using an older version, (I think he said 4.1). I haven't looked into it more than that, but maybe worth a look. Besides that, probably a PRF is your only option with locked BL for now.

Cheers mate, I'll look into that older version of kingroot, failing that I'll wait (and hope) for them to update kingroot as I'm too chicken to go the PRF route... yet.
Thanks for the tip

Did you try KingRoot? (Not kingO) It worked fine with mine K420N.
Yes. Didn't get even close, even with OEM unlocked mode in dev settings.
ive used kingroot to root mines which it did but the thing is after installing L speed and Root booster i ended up with a Boot verifcation fail, i don't know exactly whether or not the problem was caused by Kingroot or by the other two apps

I just got my new K10 and iRoot did not work, so I tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/debloater-remove-carrier-bloat-t2998294 and it can at least disable the applications, so root is not so badly needed.
I have the T-Mobile 428 version, I have tried KingRoot, KingoRoot, iRoot, StumpRoot, LG One Click Root and Framaroot on this phone and nothing. I also tried a root method from a dev in XDA, just can't remember the name. It would be nice to have root on this device.

You got it wrong bro most of LG devices specially those running on Android M doesn't support "one click root". Lg K10 can be root by using adb, twrp, and super su package. Using commands in cmd will play a major role.
Follow this thread and look for its 1st page.

Hi all,
I need help because I want to root my phone but all info I read is confused (also because is difficult to understand English for me). I'm looking for a process for root my phone with Android 6.0.1 with losing DRM Keys. Is there any custom ROM with DRM Keys, recovery and root for this phone? Please, I would appreciate a lot if someone can guide me.

Kingroot is the simplest way to root!
other methods may be called "Dirty" (according to your definition) , involving unlocking bootloader, loosing original DRMkeys, flashing kernals (involving risk of bricking device / and/or stuck at bootloops) and finally gaining Root Access.
