To root your phone successfully read all parts of this article carefully.
Rooting your is an illegal process and not recommended by Sony or Google because if anything goes wrong rooting process may brick your device. Your phone’s warranty will get void after rooting your phone and you will be charged for any help for your phone in future. If you want your warranty back then you can have it by unrooting your phone.
You need a Windows-based PC with internet connection, a USB cable and your phone. On your PC disable all security related software like antivirus or anti malware or it will interfere between the process and may brick your device. On your phone enable USB debugging by going to settings > developer options > enable USB debugging from here (unlock developer options by going to settings > about phone > tap on build number 7 times).
Before going any further make sure that your phone should have 70% battery left on it. This root process is only for Sony Xperia Z3 on stock firmware version 23.0.1.A.5.77, do not use this process or files on other devices or you will get ended with a bricked phone.
