4 Steps Rooting for Xperia Go JB [6.2.A.1.100] from DooMLoRD of XDA [Locked and Unlocked Bootloader]

[eljunpacomios]

I do not own this post or whatever, just sharing.

Guys, can anyone try this rooting method and report back? I was not

able to bring my USB cable at work so I am not able to try it now.

STEPS

1. just download the file, extract it completely using winzip/winrar DooMLoRD_Easy-Rooting-Toolkit_v14_perf-event-exploit.zip
2. go to the folder where its extracted and execute "RUNME.bat"
3. read and follow the instructions on the screen!
4. REBOOT THE DEVICE AFTER THE SCRIPT HAS FINISHED EXECUTION!

does the method brick the phone??....I too want root my GO....

[eljunpacomios]

In my case, no.. it did not brick my phone..

[eljunpacomios]

Proof.

BEFORE

I had more than 230 files/applications in

system app, some of which I do not use. it cost me ~426MB in

storage.

AFTER

Now, I have 185 files in system apps ~231MB in size.

Working 100% many thnaks to DooMLoRD..........debloating frees 250MB ROM space, reduce my NANDroid backup by half........doing some modification on apps since this FW .100 does not include any file manager so I am making one built-in........

You'll probably want to revert to the older Xperia Home launcher and weather widget from 6.2.A.0.400 as well, since the former has an odd issue where the apps tray background isn't stretched properly, and the latter retains weather information much longer when disconnected. Just remember to delete WeatherWidget2.apk (that's the one from 6.2.A.1.100) so you don't have two weather widgets, though it's perfectly harmless to leave it in anyway.

Both apks were extracted from the 0.400 firmware and are 100% stock (right down to their digital signatures by Sony), feel free to use jarsigner (jarsigner -verify -verbose -certs ) to verify that it is so.
