Follow the topic, you can update first without root if you like, but you still need to get back on 257 to root anyway.
i didn't get what do you mean, can i just follow the topic or no to go on kitkat ( and be rooted ) ?? , and sorry again for my question , it's my first android device
First revert back to .534 (Hope you know how to downgrade and flash ftf's using flashtool, if you don't please let me know),
Then root it using Kingo,
Install XZDual Recovery,
Then proceed with the link mentioned above.

Install dual recovery (no need to root)
Flash a pre rooted 4.4 rom

hey man qq
I kinda forgot how to do things here,damn S3 it was easy to root hahaha
I'm on 757 which is the latest fw, if I use this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=51781278
couldI save some steps and go straight so flash the zip file or do I have to flash the ftf and then the zip? I just dont get it, that guide is kinda confusing for me
thx
Don't worry and welcome to Xperia
You'd have to flash the FTF first. So flash .534 FTF and install XZDualRecovery before proceeding with the thread you've mentioned and do the steps provided there
thx for the welcome,although it's a welcome back hahaha got a xperia x1, x10 and the z1Don't worry and welcome to Xperia

do you have any direct link where I can download .534 and latest, all I can find is a torrent and takes 6hrs or so to download

Can't you search? Look in the stickies in the general section, the FTF mega collection thread

None of them are bittorrents, they are direct downloads
You are looking in the wrong place

Look in the mega collection thread in the general section
The links are fine and the instructions are there.

Hi. Can anyone provide me a mirror link for 14.3.A.0.757 because torrent is not working also cannot download via zbigz as well. I have downloaded stripped file.
Also i would like to know if i root z1 locked bootloader what will i loose. Like warranty, drm keys etc.
Thank you

That link aint working not sure if I can extract the ftf from my phone which is unlocked. Talked to doomlord and it seems rooting doesnt make you lose your drm keys but unlocking the bootloader does, you need root to get the TA backup

No you can not, but there are literally hundreds of FTF files in the mega collection thread that are not torrents for this user to use
All this info is given in the unlocking bootloader thread and the all you need to know thread.....
This information is readily available with a quick search
