root checker says I am rooted but I am unable to update supersuwith normal method.

same error
Hi,
I really need help!
I tried to install the new Android 7 on my Sony Xperia s. So I unlocked the bootloader, rooted it and tried to flash it with flashtool.
So something went wrong and when I try to start it only the sony logo appears. What can I do?
Now I only want my old Android 4.1.2 with firmware 6.2.B.1.96 back, but I find no download for a .ftf-file to include that into the firmware tool of Flashtool, and does that work to get my old Android back?
I can´t start the phone and I also can´t get into Recovery mode, I only can come in Flashboot mode and connect it to the Pc.
Can someone send me a link or help me otherwise. I really need my cellphone and now I only would like to have it back on my old Android.
Thanks for answers
Thanks

Does towelzxperia load now but you still get not rooted error or does it say same thing about towelzxperia not exploiting as before?

you tell me
stock rom 5.1.1. with locked bootloader
This tool won't work on 5.1. You can use Kingroot, and change to SuperSU, or unlock bl, and root with fastboot. You can easily backup and restore drm.I don't even know what I am editing and what's it's meaning so I don't think I'm gonna do it because I don't want to break the phone.
So is there no way to root the latest official stock rom lollipop with locked Bl???
Exactly, subscribing here to see future updates from you.I looked though these forums but sorry to say I am going nuts there are so many threads and discussion, part of them heavily outdated, it's hard to find what's relevant still.
Thanks man!
Can you link me the guide for that king root method as I understand I can do this with keeping the BL unlocked at all?

Root any Xperia running Lollipop [ LB / UBL ]Exactly, subscribing here to see future updates from you.
BTW, did you by any chance figured out how to make it work for you?
.
.
.
- Make sure device is connected
- Make sure USB-debugging is enabled
- Make sure no Sony PC Companion or other Sony software is running
- Make sure you have adb drivers installed (Example)
- Make sure the computer is permanently authorized for connection on the phone (you get a dialog the first time you connect)
.
- Flash factory firmware in flashtool. Exclude everything except system. No need to wipe anything.
- Yes. You 'might' have to reinstall SuperSU though (depending on the installation method).
Did you use the SuperSU from market? Because it's a known issue this SuperSU can not update binary. Use latest one from here: http://download.chainfire.eu/447/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99r4.zip
