Yes you can, since it's the same as flashing stock firmware in Odin if you had a Samsung device before

Yeah but Odin is Samsung's official flasher/repair called ODIN MULTI FLASHER tool i don't think that Sony is supporting flash-tool...:laugh:
when i debranded my i just used the build version 1270-7689 generic UK i just edited /system/biuld.prop and use pc companion to flash the debranded rom. much safer.

Yes it's but they don't support the versions available for us end users. Odin available here and there is a leak of the Samsung Odin which leaked some years ago and then developers have added a windows UI to it and made it available for us. No but I think it's the same here, some guy found a leaked Sony tool and then made a new one himself to suit the needs of us users. This is just my thoughts about Flashtool thought and not sure if it's true.
Edit: I had right, Sony is offering a Flashtool them self. http://developer.sonymobile.com/services/flash-tool/ so he/she didn't even need to get inspiration from a leaked one, but an official tool made by Sony.
Well you do it your way, but I'm offering this as a help to users that both want to unbrand or save their device from a semi brick.
But it's up to the user.

I don't know actually I guess that the root exploits that exist works on that version too and otherwise you could backup TA partition unlock bootloader, root with an su.zip then restore ta and wola a root that works on all versions and you'll still have locked bootloader and drm keys

Sony has certified two new firmware's at PTCRB !!!
The first one based on 4.1.2 (i think), it is the 10.1.1.A.1.319 at Jun 4, 2013.
The second one based on 4.2.2 or maybe 4.3 (i think), it is the 10.3.A.0.407 at Jun 4, 2013, too.

Thats crazy, why became the C6606/6616 (the US T-Mobile Version) the newest firmware first. The funny you can buy this version of Xpereia Z only by T-Mobile US.
For two weeks i became the .253 and wait now of the .307, two weeks update is the new way of Sony update policy .

Unlocking bootloaders has nothing to do with Flashtool. But yes, as long as you don't unlock your bootloader you can pretty much do whatever you want.
We're talking about flashing with flashtool, but how many people that own the phone never heard/went on XDA how many of them never heard of flashtool. All of those people rely on their operators to push updates.

Unless your phone from country "x " from provider "1" and you flashed to country "y" provider "n" so to be safe make a backup from your original blobs and take the time and learn how to create your "backup.ftf" ... At some point, could save your phone... Occasionally.

That's right. Before flashing anything to your phone, it's always a good idea to create a backup of the original firmware customization, so that you can easily restore your phone to factory state if required, especially if it's difficult to find an FTF file online with your customization.
Luckily, there is also a way to return to your original customization without FTF file, but it requires a rooted phone with a locked bootloader:

I'm very happy that Sony is taking software updates seriously for its flagship phone. The more updates, the better the phone can become.

What if we made a collection, for example, $0.5 times to 100 people for DooMLoRD that he did Easy Root toolkit for firmware 201 I do not know if that's true, but I read that DooMLoRD ended development Xperia SP. So this could be a kind of motivation for the recovery of the partial support of this model.
Maybe $0.5 is small, maybe $1 will be better. Everything is about discussion.

Since this is the last Official firmware update for SP, confirmed by Sony, I don't know why/if DooM has said he won't support the SP anymore. I'm sure he can acquire the necessary files easily enough and get a fix out. How long did it take him to do the last one?
Confirmed?
The development of a rooting toolkit doesn't depend on how much money is put on the table but rather if there is a vulnerability in the .201 kernel that can be exploited to gain root access.

Guys, Sony has NOT confirmed anything about future updates or end of life status..
Well, they have sort of: unfortunately that post on that french forum was made on april 1st so there is no confirmation if this was either a joke or if it was real
Guys,
Doomlord has stated on his twitter that there will be no Rooting methode for 4.3 (201 build).. This is because Sony has patched older exploits and according to Doomlord there is no exploit in the kernel whatsoever that can be used to root the device.
So you can collect all you want but without an exploit it is just not possible..

And nobody knows who is that guy that post that thing (actually, I just remembered, I see that post first here then Xperiablog).... not to mention was posted on 1st april, and is not an official announcement
If I'm serious, I think Sony will no give us 4.4.... but still is not confirmed, so NO
Okay two things:
1: Sony has noting confirmed on their OWN blog! XperiaBlog is one made by fans!
2: For discussion about wheter we get the update or not: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2516663
Another pointless thread.
So your all complaining that the latest firmware is laggy and still has issues, why do you expect that there will be another firmware?
You all moaned tirelessly "When is 4.3 coming out?" now you have it and its no good.
And now you want to root the crappy buggy firmware, and you MUST HAVE 4.4 on your sp!!!
I have stayed on 4.1.2 rooted it and put up with crappy wifi signals
I WILL NOT be buying another Sony mobile as they are no good at maintaining their phones firmware wise.
Every Sony firmware has bugs, and I for one am fed up with it
but downgrading and then upgrading is time consuming...you may have good internet connection but not everyone has it!! ONLY IF there was an availble tool to root .201 fw directly then it would be great for all the non rooted and LB xsp usrs

There isnt any exploit so you cant do this other way. Make this with downgrading... or... Unlock BL - simple.

It means Sony has not updated TMO with the info yet. That is understandable considering the international models don't even have a test version according to PTRCB. Once it's in testing (for TMO version: D6616) it will be listed.
Since you have the international version you will probably get it much earlier than us.
The Z1/Z3 are finally mentioned, status shows as "Manufacturer Development".

Root alone won't let you update to a generic 5.0.2 ROM though. Still need to unlock the bootloader.

No you do not. You can have root on a Sony lollipop rom with a locked bootloader.
However, if you mean CM or AOSP etc, then you always need an unlocked bootloader for that

If you have recovery you can create a pre-rooted flashable zip from a lollipop FTF for your device and flash it.

Hi all
Just got my new Sony Xperia Z5 Premium today
I am wondering if there are any ways to root this phone as the DPI is pretty large for my liking and if there will be Cyanogenmod for it in the near future ?

Ok so the only way I can root and install recovery is using ADB to root ?

This is not about rooting, it's about security and malware!!!
Will they ever release Cyanogenmod for the sony xperia z5 Premium ?

And what do we need to root on a locked bootloader? Security holes. It's an interesting issue, but I doubt it can be used to gain root on the most recent firmwares (with dm-verity and such).

I can't imagine it not getting CM13...Sony let's you unlock the bootloader and also released binaries for AOSP support...developers should have AOSP based ROMS for this phone in no time...personally, I'm going to use Sony's stock ROM for a few months before unlocking it.
So I got my device and unlocked the bootloader. Now PC Companion refuses to update and when trying to register for Emma it claims to have sent a confirmation e-mail, yet I've never received it. No matter how many times I try.
Please somebody ease my pain and tell there's a way to at least root this now?

Of course not!
If I read instructions, how could I be having problems in the first place? (So thanks!)
Well, now at least Emma notices my phone, however "No available services". Can I dl the newest stock rom somewhere so I'd at least have that up to date?

You can use Z5 TWRP if it boots.
