The smaller version of Xperia Z1 is now on pre-order at several retailers in the UK. The new Sony Xperia Z1 Compact pre-orders, as Phones 4u notes, are expected on 31 of this month.

Prior to its market roll-out, recognised XDA developer, DooMLoRD has released a CWM-based recovery v6.0.4.6 for the Xperia Z1 Compact. Besides, the developer has shared easy methods to install CWM recovery and root package on the device. The root method uses SuperSU root package by Chainfire. Head over to the development thread to learn more about the CWM and root process for Xperia Z1 Compact.

Pre-requisites

1) Install USB Driver for Sony Xperia Z1 Compact to connect the Android device with the computer.

2) As the tutorial might wipe out all data of the phone, create a backup. If the device is having any custom recoveries such as CWM or, TWRP then backup data using the same.

3) If the Android phone powers off due to lack of battery while the installation process, it could damage the device. Therefore, the Xperia Z1 Compact should have charge above 80% battery charge.

4) The bootloader of the phone should be unlocked. [Click here for a guide to unlock Xperia Z bootloader for help, as the process is similar on all Sony devices.]

5) The CWM recovery and SuperSU root files work only with Sony Xperia Z1 Compact D5503. As applying this to any other variant might brick the device, verify the model number of Xperia Z1 by navigating to Settings>> About phone>> Model number.

6) Rooting the device will void manufacturer's warranty.
