Just received the notification for OTA update for 9.1.B.1.67, wondering can I keep the root if I use OTA update on my TX?
Can we root the phone with this latest update without unlock boot locker?
Would OTA rootkeeper able to keep my root after I update to 9.1.B.1.67 using OTA? Cheers.

@caff111: I own an Xperia T and recently I had an update notification, I updated my phone via PC Companion, since the OTA update was not available, and lost root.
However, using Byn4ry's method @ xda-developers I was able to root my phone again.
Here is the link, in case you are not familiar with this particular rooting method:

I guess my experience would apply to you, since both handsets are practically identical.

But some people mentioned that this root method does not works with the latest update 9.1.B.1.67 on Xperia TX? Can anyone confirmed? I am scared of losing my root. Cheers.

@caff111
You can use
DooMLoRD's easy root toolkit from xda for that FW. I just used the script for my Z and it works like a charm. So much easier than Bin4ry's root tool that needs you to choose a device and press buttons and wait etc. Just run it and press go.
@Big_D
If T gets 4.2.2 TX should do too, the hardware and FW is almost identical. Literally a couple dozen lines are different. They'd be stupid to not push to TX too. However, from past experience, IF TX gets 4.2.2 it won't be until early next year (gauging by the fact Xperia S only just got 4.1 in the last couple weeks).

Is anyone's Xperia TX/T extremely glitchy? My girlfriend has a TX and this is her list of faults:
* Battery life is useless. It lasts less than a day with full power save settings on and only moderate use. In comparison, my Xperia Z with similar use and the same power save settings lasts up to two days.
* Random Chinese error pictures showing up in the photo album (the phone is imported but definitely genuine).
* Text messages come through twice very often.
* The phone is slow and even common, well-supported apps crash quite often.
* Her 500mb monthly data allowance gets used up really quickly, sometimes within three days so she has to have data turned off until she needs to use it.
* Random screen sepia colour glitches when waking and sleeping the phone.
* Set alarms sometimes don't even go off, but if they do, it's often hard to turn the alarm sound off as the screen and side buttons are unresponsive.
* Screen can be unresponsive sometimes.
The phone seems completely useless! We have reflashed the firmware and it fixed nothing. My Xperia Z does none of this stuff.
The problem is, if we take it back, how do we prove it is stuffed if these glitches don't happen all of the time?

None of the above. Although very recently I've found that the WiFi hotspot will turn off for no apparent reason at a random time.
Also, I've found that manually turning the data off, instead of relying on Stamina mode, seems to make the battery last a whole lot longer. I'm not sure Stamina mode even works.

It most certanly work on my XP. Without it, it is impossible for me to get more than 2-3 days of standby.
