Rooting does not erase data.
Use the Root option, not Flash.

Are you using doomlord's zergrush root method? That's the method that you should use to root without losing data.

If you are on 4.0.2.A.0.62(GB) Build, you have to flash the 4.0.2.A.0.42 firmware first because the 0.62 build cannot be rooted with 'zergrush'.when you've done this you don't have to wipe your data.

You can root without flashing anything.

thank you
Could I upgrade my phone with this utility? I've unlocked bootloader. Also I've installed Doomkernel and flashed a custom rom. Now I want to restore the original firmware and I don't want to brick my phone.
Use that or the flashtool.

Ok! I' ll use that, because I can't find the last ftf file for Italy trade. Thanks. But after flash, Shall I have to unlock bootloader and root the phone again?
You won't lose the lock but you will the root.

Do not update if you want to keep root. It blocks root.

If you root before you update, then you will keep the root. Just don't install Clockwork mod. I think that screws up the update, causing it to fail. Anyway, My phone is rooted and on 2.3.4 and I did just this.
I'm going to ftf back to 2.3.3 to get root

unlock your bootloader and you can root every firmware version by flashing superuser zip file in CWM, even 2.3.4
I need to know that after rooting do I need to do a full wipe on every update?
Also those who have rooted, after rooting are you'll sensors and everything working properly

I experienced the same after I unlocked my BL with flashtool 0.9.15 (fw .681): no data lost
Was it the first time unlocking ? You too removed SD and sim card?

It was for the 2nd time and both cards were still in the device. Earlier I also posted this in the Flashtool thread but till now no response. Curious, after Xperia S and SP this is my 3rd device and the 1st one which did not wipe data after unlocking
My xzr never wiped even on the first time

And what about after relock?
Or relock AND flash back TA partition?
I relocked by flashing backedup TA

Yes
