Has anyone rooted and Z2 yet? Care to share what roms you use if any especially if its CM11, I'm currently waiting for a more stable version of Cyanogenmod

I have not been able to root it. I apparently Mt firmware is too recent. I tried to unlock the boot loader the Sony way too but the instructions were quiet vague

Do contact me before you start Rooting your device, You need to download the Recovery file specific to your device, else it will not work.
So contact me first on

Cheers

My method is way better
