I have not seen a working root method for 5.1.1. Be patient.

If bootloader unlocked, many options. If not, not yet, (maybe prf, haven't tried myself).

If you want to, start here - http://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/unlock-yourboot-loader/ - but make sure you want to... There are certain risks and ramifications involved. Personally, I did it right away bc I wasn't too worried about those things, but some people are more hesitant.

What options are there in open BL????

Here's what I did -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/root-stock-5-1-ub-t3203247

There's also at least 4 PRFs in the 'general' section of this forum. You could also make your own PRF. PRF Creator thread is in cross-device development forum. (BTW, I think PRFs work fine with locked bl, but I've never done it, just read some threads).
With unlocked bl, almost anything is possible, since you can flash any IMG any time to get into recovery and modify /system. As long as you have a stock kernel that will work, then you just flash it back when you're ready. Of course it's risky if you're messing with things you don't really understand.

you flash via adb?


EdiT:


adb is waiting for device....can u help me

Win10

Win10

What point are you at? Are you trying to unlock bl?

As far as getting adb to work, I've only used up to Win 8, so not sure about Win 10. I know that it's very common to have problems with it, but it seems like it can always be fixed. Besides installing adb package, you may need phone drivers. PC companion or Flashtool can help.

I accidently thanked your post, but didn't ment it.
Why don't you tell about the loss of DRM keys by unlocking the bootloader?
There are guides about backing up the TA partition before you unlock the bootloader.
With a TA backup you can always go back to the first time as you bought your device. :banghead:

I'm sorry you didn't know that ahead of time. I said in post 6 that there are ramifications involved. I didn't think I necessarily had to explain everything, but figured you'd look into it. As far as drivers, I mentioned in post 10 that PC Companion or Flashtool can help with drivers. If you use PC Companion, it will detect your phone, if Flashtool, there's a 'drivers' folder which contains a driver installation exe file.

I also mentioned that you could try PRF even without unlocking bl. I just told you what I did if you want to try. I'm glad to help, but it's your responsibility.

Anyway, the reason I was asking what point you're at is bc if your bl is unlocked, you don't use adb at this point, but fastboot. If you're connected in fastboot mode, (blue led), then go to adb directory in terminal, and type fastboot commands.
