Rooting the TX

This is based on Bina4ry's Xperia unrooting script in this post on XDA Developers, but there were a few steps missing that took me some time to figure out. 

Note: This method works with firmware 7.0.A.1.307, which is what my TX came with.  There is a newer firmware out (.3.195) and at the time of writing Bin4ry's script does not work with it.  If your TX came with .3.195, you will need to unlock your TX's bootloader and use one of the other methods.  Note, however, that unlocking your bootloader means you will lose the Sony DRM keys on your TX forever, and that may break functionality with some Sony apps/products/services.

Steps:

1) Buy a Sony Xperia TX.

2) Download Bin4ry's Xperia unrooting script here.  Always download the latest one.  Unzip it to a convenient folder of your choice.

3) Make sure your TX is not plugged in to your computer.

4) Download Sony's PC Companion from here and install it.  Wait until the installation is complete and don't forget to reboot if the program tells you to.

5) Make sure PC Companion is on, and then plug in your TX.  If you haven't plugged your TX in before, Windows will prompt you to search/install drivers for your phone; cancel it, because we want PC Companion to install those drivers for you.  If you have, just let PC Companion do its thing.

6) Go to the folder where you unzipped Bin4ry's script to and click RunMe.bat

7) Choose option 1) Normal.  The script should detect your TX automatically and just do its thing.  Your phone will reboot once or twice during this process.  Don't bother it.

8) Enjoy your rooted TX.

Troubleshooting

*The script is stuck waiting for my phone!*

The drivers for your TX have not been installed correctly.  Make sure you've installed PC Companion.  Failing that, uninstall PC Companion and try to uninstall the drivers for your TX, and then follow my guide from step 3.

*Something else is wrong*

Refer to ]Bin4ry's XDA thread.  Chances are the answer to your problems is somewhere in the comments.  Sometimes it's not; Bin4ry assumes you've installed PC Companion, for example, and it took me a while to figure out that this is my problem.  In such cases, register on XDA and ask.
Thanks for your very informative reply bro. thumbup.gif

That is why I hate on-screen button so much because it eat up into your precious screen real estate thus make me avoid such models.

thats what the cool thing about the tx. if viewing photos, apps, videos, and games the on screen buttons will disappear! it is 4.6" screen but only slightly longer than the Arc. Imagine that!
Oh really? Then how would you manage the apps that require the buttons when it already disappear? How about browsing and the like?

you can tap the area/volume key and then it will reveal three small transparent buttons....like the ones u see in Xperia S. Tap again and the buttons will fully appear. the menu buttons will always be on your right. about browsing i am not sure yet havent got the chance to test the phone
