Hi,
Does anybody know how to Root Xperia ZL C6506_10.4.B.0.569 R1C_LTE North America Commercial and Journalists.ftf with locked bootloaders. i don't know how to unlock my phone bootloader.
Thanks,
Please help me.
The link u sent is for Xperia ZL "C6503" not "C6506"
The files provided in the link are only for that version.
Thanks Anyways.
Even though it's for the 6503 it should work fine for the 6506. I did it on my 6506 and I've had no issues.
Just flash the 2.67, root through the older kernel, install the XZDualrecovery and follow the procedure on the link. I've had no issues with this process, I even kept LTE access working! All along with root and my precious Xposed Module!
I have the .ftf file, not the zip file that I can flash from recovery (Are u able to flash a .ftf file from recovery, without using the flashtool? Because flashtool completely erases the phone's storage and even the recovery)
Can someone tell me the difference in the c5603 and the c6506? The firmwares I mean I'm in Canada and if.I use the.c5603 files my lte will be alright?

Steps to Root from .569 Locked BL
1. Backup via Backup/Restore
2. Downgrade from 4.3 to 4.2.2 (Clean install) using flashtool
3. Reboot
4. Root via Bin4ry (Root Many Android V.33), option 0
5. Install Dual Recovery (as per Nut's thread)
6. Flash 569 zip/su fix (dual recovery)
7. Power off
8. Flash stripped 569 using flashtool
9. Reboot
10. Restore backup.
So: no need to unlock bootloader/backup TA partition
Reason: Did not want to unlock, could not backup TA because I had no root.
Regards,

As you said, the main differences between the two is LTE band frequencies. According to GSM arena this is how the two compare:
4G Network
LTE 700 / 850 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100 - C6506
LTE 800 / 850 / 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2600 - C6503
So as long as your LTE is within the bands the 6503 provides, you'll be OK. In my case (Mexico Telcel) it's 2100, so with the 6503 ROM I still got LTE working as good as before
Take a dive through google and find the LTE band for your provider and you'll get your answer. Good luck!:fingers-crossed:

All of the former are obtained with a locked bootloader, right?
Because I've just bought my phone, and I don't wanna void the warranty, though I don't know if unlocking the bootloader voids the warranty here in Mexico
Ack, what the hell did that filthy jewish Telcel do the phones?
