Hello,

there is no problem to root 18.1.A.2.25.

it's not so easy than .21 or .23 but it's well working

first, you need to be on 18.1.A.2.25 :
1- allow debbug USB, and to put the scard in MSC mode
2- connect the phone to the PC, in order to have the question about allowing debug. answer yes but don't forget to tag "allways allow", because, it will not be possible to accept once you will have flashed the kernel 18.1.a.1.14.
3- shutdown the phone
4- Flash only the kernel 18.1.a.1.14 with Flashtool.
5- start the phone and connected it to PC. don't be afraid, you only see the SONY logo, and after the screen turn black. you haven't display, but the phone is well working.
6- Root the phone with RootKitXperia (last version is 20140719)
7- shutdown the phone. as you have no diplay, it's not possible to use the regular screen "shutdown", so hold the power button and the vol+ until the phone vibrate 3 times (firstly, it vibrate once, but stay holding buttons and the phone vibrate 3 times)
8- Flash only the kernel 18.1.a.2.25 with Flashtool.
9- start the phone
run SuperSu and accept upgrade.

enjoy

Kernel links are all I need :( I can't find the firmware anywhere, any chance you could post them/upload them somewhere for us? thanks!
