Bootloader Unlockable: Yes

This means that your device is able to be unlocked. It does not say that it is currently unlocked. Root is not needed for bootloader unlock.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] spectheintro:
:(

What determines its vulnerability? Is there some way I could introduce vulnerability, by flashing an alternate ROM of some sort? I really want to hang onto the tablet, but if I can't start modifying its build props and getting rid of this bloatware it'll have to go back.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] LordManhattan:
Correct, and if the bootloader is unlocked it will say "Bootloader Unlocked: Yes" under "Bootloader Unlockable".

Source: Bootloader unlocked Z Ultra.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bin4ry:
I don't know your device sorry.maybe ask a dev from it how to work through it. Also I see now that you get some strange error before the mount error.maybe it's osx related. I would give it another try on windows or another Linux system.

Hi,

Hello,

thank you for your great efforts.

I have a Sony Xperia Z1 with build number 14.1.G.2.257 and I want to use my Linux machine to root the phone.

In RunMe.sh I see these options:

0) Xperia Root by cubeundcube"

1) Normal"

2) Special (for example: Sony Tablet S, Medion Lifetab)"

3) New Xperia Root by Goroh_kun"

G) Google Glass Root (thx to Saurik for the ab file)"

What option do I have to chose for the Xperia Z1 with build 14.1.G.2.257 ?And, as a paranoid open source fanatic, how can I be sure this software hack does not do any evil?I guess either I have to trust or I do not trust...

I tried to root my Z1 with 2.257 using method 3 from the script.

It did not work :(

When the message appeared "go to test settings => display and wait", nothing happened for 10 minutes. Then I rebooted, no root.

The phone seems to be okay, I just hope the failed root attempt did not cause any damage....

at least so far I saw no damage after the failed attempt....
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bin4ry:
Yes that exploit is closed for this kind of new firmware. But that info is already a few times here :) only possibility is method 0, maybe it works no idea yet.

Methods never harm (except the special ones but that's warned in the op). Look in the script it's all opensource!

HP 7 (Slate) 1800

I was instructed to come here if the Bin4ry root method did not work.

It did not, as I got a mount: permission denied, and obviously nothing worked after that.

It is 4.1.2

Software Version: P702T_V01 24_130919

IFWI Version: 06 D9

Kernal: 3.0.34+

Build: JZ054K.rng.LX.20130919.141741

Any ideas OR another way to root. ADB see's the device and Impactor gives me "Signature Bugs Unavailable".

ANY help would be GREATLY appreciated.

******************************* edited ***********************

I was able to root it - easily - with the TwerkMyMoto exploit. I think it's the kernel, as a WHOLE lot of apps do not work with it - especially Avast Firewall.

I'd still be interested in anyone who did use Bin4ry.

Thank you, but I'm very curious why it didn't - didn't get the permissions it needed. Any way to find out?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bin4ry:
You are interpreting itbthe wrong way. The permission error comes up because the exploit is fixed in your firmware! Permission error means NOT that there was a error in running the exploit, just that it is fixed already on your firmware ;)

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tlongren:
I hear this tool works to root the cheap Trio 4.3 Media Player devices running ICS.

I don't have access to a windows box, so I ran ./RunMe.sh and got a LOT of errors after choosing option 1.

All of the errors are similar to this:

./RunMe.sh: line 220: ./stuff/adb: Permission denied

It occurs on various lines. From what I can tell, it hasn't done anything. I never get prompted to "Please connect your device with USB-Deubgging enabled now" or anything, it just runs all the way through the bash script and nothing seems to actually happen.

Tried running it like "sudo ./RunMe.sh" as well, but no luck. I even chmod'd all the files in the stuff folder to 777 and made sure my user had ownership.

Got any ideas what's up? It's probably just this crap device, lol.

Really want to get it rooted and play store on it (it only has Amazon app store now), giving it to my daughter for Christmas (even though she already has ipad mini and my old Motorola Defy).

Thanks to anyone who's got any insight into this!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Bin4ry:
Nope Sorry.

Well this info is not enough. Does you have a problem with the script not running correct or does the script just not root your device? If second then noone can help you, because it is like it is, sometimes exploits get fixed.

If the script does not work correct you shoul post the output here.

The solution to this issue is to install 32-bit libs through terminal. Below are the commands dependant on your OS. I take no responsibility if you use the wrong one or it is typed incorrectly.

Fedora: yum install ncurses-libs.i686 libstdc++.i686 libgcc.i686

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bonsai120:
I had some black grafic mods on it for black email app, black phone app and so far. This was the reason for using a recovery for being able to flashi this zip's. Possible that this was reason too for not being able to make OTA installation.

You also can use proved and updated Bin4ry tool to root stock .67

I did it for ZR C5503 originally updated via OTA to .67. The updated tool uses the same exploit.

The 2 questions remains:

1. How to update rooted .67 to 4.3 so the root will be preserved - Will OTA really work and what preparations needed?

2. Someone mentioned FolderMount v2.5 don't work on emulated SD like ZR for 4.3, if that's true how to move apps to SD (internal has only 4+ GB on ZR)?
