[root] [m] [4.3] [ub] how to root xperia m.

[haresh311999]

Hello Everyone Yesterday we got the FTF file for the official Xperia M 4.3 Update, But we were disappointed that none of the root methods worked on our device so I have Made this guide to root Xperia M successfully.

Requirements:
1.Download the Zip from this link http://download.chainfire.eu/396/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94.zip
2.Download The kernel with CWM from this link https://mega.co.nz/#!1pYHFLxQ!9vPbrrIn8LwHnlXZCjWplLCdRwfTgHKSfH-D8sWeqQg
3.Unlocked Bootloader.
4.Pc with flash tool installed.

Steps:
1.First turn on your pc then start flashtool then turn off your phone, start the phone in fastboot mode by holding the volume up button and then attaching the usb cable to it, then click on the thunder icon then select fastboot and click ok.select the flash a kernel option, select file extension as .img from the dropdown menu then select the 4.3-boot.img that you have downloaded and click open.
2.Boot up your phone normally.Then move the UPDATE-ROOT-4.3 that you have downloaded to your External SD card as the recovery is not detecting the Internal storage.
3.Power off your phone then boot into recovery mode mount system and data then flash the UPDATE-SuperSu-1.94.zip and reboot to system.Now you have successfully rooted your device.

Please, make an option to root with locked bootloader, mine says that's not allowed to unlock it Without root I'm like without hand...

Why apps don't ask for superSU permissions?

 

[bkman08]

can not download kernel... downloading from site has been temp. disabled.

 

[lake0ftearz]

Even with unlocked bootloader, I can't use Link2SD ... Sony is what a pain in the ..ss

Mount2Folder is working ...

 

[ckrishnakanthc]

Can anyone host the boot.img onto a different site? Dropbox has temporarily disabled the link..

See in settings that you have not set to grant to all the applications automatically...
