Is there a full root for 14.2.0.A.290 C6903 already? Does anyone uses the guide below and has successfully rooted their devices?

Any idea also if whats best to update? OTA or PC Companion? So i can root afterwards?

Does the camera worked the same after unlocking bootloader? i've read that bionz is lost after unlocking bootloader? i think bionz is processing camera images?

I updated mine with PC Companion, because I couldn't wait for the OTA update and I used those instructions.

Update to 4.3 -> Unlock -> flash Custom Recovery -> flash SU

that's all

Agreed, Looks like it has problems with drivers and stuff.
