Okay, so you've read Mills' instructions and sort of understand them.
1. Download the CWM recovery from multiupload
2. Boot off of that file (DO NOT FLASH): fastboot boot recoveryPLAY.img
3. Copy this to your memory card and flash it with the booted recovery
4. Reboot and test root

Right? Okay, let me translate all that for you.
First things first, you need to unlock your bootloader. To do so
Mills00013 said:
Obtain a bootloader unlock code. Right now the only way to get one is through ashergray or myself. This will change soon but for now its limited in release.
Once you have your code, follow the unlock instructions on either Sony's website directly or by following the instructions here. Please note that you already have your code at this point so if you follow the instructions please disregard anything telling you to obtain a code. These are for GSM models.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So kindly ask one of them for your unlock code, and my best suggestion would be to get everything ready so you can unlock the bootloader and flash the booted recovery all in one go.
So download the recoveryPLAY.img and set it aside.
Then download the RootXperia.zip and set it on your SD card in the root directory. So in the main F:\ folder.
Download the drivers and fastboot.exe here http://www.multiupload.com/RS6367SQMT
Okay, we got everything. Follow these instructions http://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-unlock-bootloader-xperia-arc-play-neo-pro/ starting at step 6 but please read my notes below also
at step 7, you will hold down the SEARCH button and plug the USB cable into your phone.
When you go to look for the Driver in Step 10 of the guide look for the one on the list that says "Android Bootloader Interface 2.0.10.2 Google, Inc. c:\?????\oem28.inf", that's the one I used.
Once the drivers installed you can locate fastboot and run it, but do this in the command prompt. So you know, go to Start > Run..> type in "cmd" and your command prompt comes up. Type in "cd\" to get to your root directory, then type in "cd c:\documents and settings\.....whateverfolder you have fastboot.exe sitting in"
So Step 13 of the guide, you're in the ...\fastboot\ folder, you can now type in fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version and that will tell you if you're connected. If you get a <waiting for device> you probably loaded the wrong driver. </life>
If not, then you got the 0.3, so continue with unlocking your bootloader in step 15. Put in your command and the key you got from some really helpful people.
Okay, so you just unlocked the bootloader, awesome. Don't close any windows. Now remember that "recoveryPLAY.img" we set aside? Go get it and move it into the same folder that you have fastboot.exe in.
# Boot off of that file (DO NOT FLASH): fastboot boot recoveryPLAY.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Okay, with your command prompt still open and your recoveryPLAY.img in the same folder as fastboot.exe, type in "fastboot.exe boot recoveryplay.img"
Copy this to your memory card and flash it with the booted recovery
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
In about 10 seconds the screen on your phone will change, you will now see the recovery screen on your PLAY. The volume buttons are UP and DOWN, the power button is ENTER or SELECT. So navigate through the menus to install .zip from SD card, and look for the RootXperia.zip (we put it on your SD card earlier remember?). So you found it, Select it, it will run, the phone will tell you life is great, so scroll up to the top and back out until you see the option to reboot your phone.
Reboot and test root
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Select Reboot and once you come up, go to the Android market and download something that requires Root, such as Titanium Backup or ROM Manager.
Finally, thank everyone involved for making this happen. Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098131
I did this on Windows XP, so I'm not sure if everything is exactly the same for any other Windows OS. Mods, feel free to move, delete or what you please with this thread.

Thanks a lot!!

Oh, my, gosh! THANK YOU SO MUCH! You don't know how much this means to me!

Thanks 4 dummie guide for noob people like me!!!!!

“S1Boot Fastboot” under the head “Other devices” i dont have that in my device manager
i cant seem to find "Android Bootloader Interface 2.0.10.2 Google, Inc. c:\?????\oem28.inf"
either...
my device manager says:
Android ADB interface under Android Phone
and
PCI input Device under "Other Devices"

To find s1 boot, you need the BLUE LED on

yea, i know
blue led light is still on

Thank you very very much for this simple and easy to follow guide. I have a very basic knowledge of all of this and many of the guides posted required I fill in gaps I didn't know how to fill.
Thank you!

Android ADB interface under properties says 2.0.10.2 Google
but i tried to update it with the folder and it said it was up to date....

In the cmd windows type in fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version
If a value is returned, it means the phone is correctly connected

to clarifie things - the search button is [select] on the play

FYI, the original method for obtaining unlock codes from Ashergray or Mills has been blocked by Sony. Now, the only way to unlock has to be done through Allejandrissimo, and costs money.
A free solution is being worked on, but we are nearly back to square one as far as unlocking goes.

how much money?
because I'm getting so tired of running out of space every time I download an app

Halfway down the page Androhero has a (non-rooted) way to free up space (it works, I have anout 100 apps with 100mbs free)

hello.. My system windows 8.1, please let check the cable connection and driver installation under Windows Device Manager " DEVICE STATUS: UNKNOWN "
In addition make sure you have enabled USB debugging menu "Developer options" and check if your device is displaying a prompt authorization to be sure to always check to allow the computer and press ok

AgMiki,
Thank you for posting this guide. I have a very noob followup question: once the phone has been rooted, am I limited to installing ROMs that have been customized for the ze500cl? If so, what ROMs for the ze500cl are available? I'd love to find a way to install Android 5.0 AOSP.

Not just so having root permissions you can install various apps like Titanium Backup, Adaway, launch various types of script to get your hands a little everywhere.
Rom have to wait for it unlocked the boot loader and which are cooked the rom, but I think for what it will take more time.:good:

Have you tried T4 on 550CL? This is what works for 551ML/550ML.

That was a typo AgMiki. 500CL. Have you tried T4 is the question. Its the exploit for 550 and 551. If T3 is working, it's a moot point. I'm just curious.

Tasker Profile KingRoot Install

I have a profile that installs Kingroot on boot. BUT it requires AutoInput for it to work properly. Also, my profile is directed towards my internal SD card pointing it to file KingRoot-4.1.0.249.apk
Please feel free to tweak, share, improve..... etc etc...
IF This Device_Boot.prf.xml.zip file is useful, dont forget to hit the "THANKS Button"

Thanks a bunch IceTwig. I got it partially working, but it hangs at clicking to start root for me. I'll need to further investigate the autoinput plugin. There is definitely a learning curve, it's like learning tasker all over again. I'll follow up again when I make more progress on it.
But what about the Xposed install you mentioned in the other thread?

Add To Option #4 on the Task "Continue After Error"
dunno why I left that off. I was trying to make the profile work whether it was a new install or a re-install. A new install had the "NEXT" option because its listing the permissions and it wants you to scroll further.

Apologies, I wasn't clear enough......... Open Tasker, under this Profile > Root task, hit the "+" (plus sign) to add to the task, select "Plugin", select "Autoinput", pick "Action", click on the "Pencil" at the top right to edit, scroll down to "Advance" and follow the previous instructions. You can cancel this new added routine to the task after you clicked the "Unlock Screen"

Step by step instructions would be awesome....for people like me who are new to this proceedure. Thanks

Either my install is borked or my phone. There is no unlock screen option.

It took me more than several tries to get it to work, and if I had to do it again, it would probably take me the same, not because I don't know how to do it, but with reboots, hangs and phone not doing what I want it to. Hence why instead of instructions, I made the profile. Most of the instructions are already there, and Tasker is NO easy task to get around if you are not familiar with it. Hope that makes sense.

Huawei Updater & HiSuite to update Mate 9 to Oreo?

I found this here:
Method 2 – Update Mate 9 to EMUI 8.0 using HiSuite
1) First you need to download two files.
Download Huawei Updater 2.0 – Download
Download Huawei HiSuite Tool – Download
2) Run Huawei Updater, check the box “Custom ROM” and “Custom Port”
3) In Custom ROM enter the correct ROM version for flashing [for example: MHA-L29 8.0.0.321 (C432log)]
4) In Custom ROM enter correct ROM URL (For example: http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1819/g1699/v100248/f1)
5) Now click on “Start” button and accept waiting alert messages.
6) Now connect your phone to HiSuite. Make sure device recognized by HiSuite and connected properly.
7) In HiSuite windows, open Settings –> General –> Custom Proxy and configure below changes –
Address: 127.0.0.1
Port: 41279
8) Go back to main HiSuite windows and click on “System update”
9) Press Update and wait for download firmware.
10) Your device will reboot and start upgrading.

But 127.0.0.1 gives a "no internet connection" error and 192.168.1.1 (from ipconfig) times out also with an error.
Is this a legitimate way of updating? If so why the errors?

i try update and no internet conection too
and, after says the device no have update, my rom is 8.0.0.321 (C432log), BUT have in FF a new 321C432log day 27 and no update

I'm getting no errors, it downloads it all and reboots to recovery. But since I have TWRP it doesn't get past that.
I will backup everything and try a full install.

I wonder if anyone got that second method working and if you need UBL for that.

Are you using 127.0.0.1? And what ROM and address in Huawei Updater?
My current version is MHA-L09C900B186 unlocked international version so I've used "MHA-L09 8.0.0.324(C900)" and "http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1819/g1699/v99803/f1" gathered from the PC version of Firmware Finder but no luck, 127.0.0.1 just gives no internet connection error.

Install patched recovery from Hwota first, then try again.
Every update goes through following steps:
Initiate update
Download
Authorization
Install
This method with Huawei Updater replaces first step. But you are right, that authorization blocks installation.

Yes, one of the steps is: "Next, navigate to the Settings app and go into Update option. Press the menu key and chose Local update."

There's no password, its all open and working, but please make sure the qualcom drivers are installed on your windows machine and recognise your phone as per the instructions on the link in op, cheers.

I have not test this and I hope I won't have to do so soon, but If that's work as expected this should definitively get pinned.
Thank !

Thank you, This has worked for me too.
fyi, I have a 128gb version.

Ti amo !
Grazie.....

Thank you for confirming your storage and this should work just fine for both the 128GB and 64GB, I was just making sure. B/C the OnePlus One had a multi storage version.
