Hi! I recently bought myself a Sony Xperia Tablet Z (SGP312U1/B). Any ideas on how to root it?
I have never had a Xperia device before so I'm not familiar with the way of rooting them.
Anyone that could perhaps tell me step by step on how to root it with Supersu or make/link a youtube video that tells me exactly what to do?
It's running android version 4.3 btw. I will highly appreciate the help and so will others.

Hi Everybody
I saw many posts about don't upgrade to .62 firmware because it's not rootable, but reading and searching in other threads (because I have a little xperience with other Sony and Sony ericsson models), I found this way to upgrade my recently adquired Xperia Play to the .62 firmware and rooted... and I just wanna share the links with you...
YOU NEED:
1. Firmwares (.42 for root and .62 to upgrade) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1589399
2. Flash tool (Very easy to use and many times, just follow the instructions) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351299
3. Root method (This is the most complete and easy tuttorial to root and upgrade) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695514
On that thread they xplain how to upgrade to ICS, but we will use that way to root the .62 Xperia Play firmware.
With this metod, you will have CWM like a gift, to make backups or flash MODs...
SCREENSHOTS BELOW
Thats all I wanna share with you... and of course, thanks to all the developers who made this threads for us.
I think when people say, "its not root able"
They mean that if you haven't rooted before you upgrade then you can't root using .62.
However if you root on a previous version and then upgrade, it'll work.
Always nice to have a guide for new people unaware of I though :thumbup:
When i rooted my play last time i flash 2.3.3 and in settings did an update and i was running rooted on latest software, but if i did it through pc conpanion it wasn't rooted, weird!

Hey folks out there... I have made a step by step tutorial video on how to root 5.1.1 of our tab Z... Hope it will help everyone
The vid is good, though firmware version numbers are different for TabZ and if you have 5.0.2 installed with all apps, before installing prerooted 5.1.1 it is not necessary to wipe /data/ from recovery.
