How to Root Sony Xperia Z2

Xperia Z2
Xperia Z2 is one of the Sony's flagship Android smartphone and a solid upgrade to its predecessor, the Xperia Z1. However, overall the changes between the two models are more evolutionary than revolutionary. At 5.2 inches, the Z2's 1080p display is slightly larger than the Z1's 5-inch screen and so are the dimensions, but overall the design with front and back glass panels encased in an aluminium frame hasn't changed. The new model is also still waterproof and dust-resistant to the same standards as the Z1 (IP55 & IP58).
A Snapdragon S801 quad-core processor and 3GB RAM allow for smooth operation of the Android 4.4 OS. 16GB of built-in memory and MicroSD-slot.

With a 20.7 MP 1/2.3-inch CMOS sensor on paper the camera specifications look identical to the Z1's but the new model is now capable of recording 4K video. New software features include TimeShift video that allows you to slow down portions of a video and Background Defocus which simulates a shallow depth of field by capturing a series of images at different focus settings and blending them.

Even though the phone has got amazing specifications there are still some advantages of rooting this, some of them being:
1. Titanium backup.
2. Nandroid Backup. 
3. Debloat the ROM with stuff  you do not desire using ROMCleaner.
4. Adblocking.
5. Flashing mods like increased in-call volume, increased brightness, interface customization etc. 
6. Raise the read ahead values to load up apps, webpages, and other stuff faster.
7. Overclock for performance or under volt the kernel to save power.
8. Getting Pure Android UI by flashing new ROMS.
9. Getting unlimited coins, gold etc. in games.
