How to root my xperia pro

It depends upon the firmware you have got. .62 firmware cannot be rooted without unlocking the bootloader . Firmware below .62 can be easily rooted. Goto XDA Developer Forum to get the instruction.

I am using Sony Xperia Pro (Mk16a) with Android 4.0.4 (4.1.B.0.587). I have unlocked the bootloader. But I am unable to root my phone. I have searched all the way and tried almost every method but I couldn't succeed. I downgraded android from ICS to GB (android 2.3). I tried using flashtool and flashing it with "MT11i_4.1.A.0.562_kernel.ftf" and the using "doomlord_v1_xperia-2011-ics-root-emu-busybox-su" and also tried to use "DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su_2". I tried also with superoneclick v2.3.3 and "rootmk16". I have backed up my original firmware from SUS. Firstly I was getting error "adb server out of date. killing. daemon not starting". Somehow, I managed to fix it but even though I can't root my phone. I am attaching files which shows the error. While following the method as said on "forum.xda-developers. com/showthread. php?t=1286885" and also on "forum.xda-developers. com/showthread. php?t=1865796". In the prcoess after flasing the kernel MT11i_4.1.A.0.562, I cannot boot my phone to follow the steps. So I have to flash it again to original firmware. I have USB debugging mode on, unkown sources checked and connectivity set to MSC mode. Please help me to root it. images link "tinypic. com/view. php?pic=2z65d38&s=5" "tinypic. com/view. php?pic=10d8q6g&s=5" "tinypic. com/r/14t3hab/5"
