1. "Capture screen" function is gone from power-off menu.
2. DualShock 3 support added
3. NFC Icon
4. MyXperia
5. Other changes which mentioned in other threads (like transparent UI elements etc.)

Generic = unbranded. You can flash it to any C6602. Even when flashing branded versions, it will never put a simlock on your phone.
If you use Google Translate on that site, it says 'Not packaged simlock.ta'.

Good news.
I own my Z almost 3 months, but I never rooted it yet. That's crazy for me, before I was thinking, that root will be first thing to do. So I just couldn't find reason for root. I think, that I'll root it, when next version of android will be available (4.3 or 5) as custom rom, because after it's announcement I will not be able to wait for stock rom. Also may be I'll flash CyanogenMod, when it's camera will have stock's functionality.
So. I can't say anything about rooting this particular device yet.

flash it ...... 4.2.2 too smooth ....nice work . thx

Hey calm down, there wouldn't be a ftf if I hadn't created it. If it doesn't work with Tapatalk, use something normal like Firefox. No-one is asking you to use the file I have created.

Cheers TheCraig, I really am just trying to help and get involved more. I have used the files here previously, just wanted to give something back. Wanted to try and get the EE branded 257 firmware too but I couldn't get it to download on it's own, only OTA and as far as I know you cannot create a FTF from an OTA download.

Don't worry. Some of us understand you are just trying to help.

I'm in the UK and I have an Unbranded Xperia Z1 C6903 which was bought separately (bought it sim free, not from EE), but my mobile plan provider is EE.
Would this be the correct FTF to flash to my phone or do I need to wait for an unbranded one?
Thanks!

Try it and see

You can use any UK C6903 FTF. For instance, I have an unbranded Z1 running on the O2 network, but have installed the vodafone FTF and it's running fine.
There is some vodafone bloatware included which are uninstallable without root, but heyho, everything is running smooth and dandy.
If you don't like it, you can always reflash.

Has anyone tried to disable exchange PIN requirements on the new 4.3 ?
I've traditionally used this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117452
and hope it still works with this new updated mail app. else I'll be going back to 4.2.2

No go at the minute. You can patch the files but there's no way of getting them to system/app without root (which you currently can't (easily) do at the minute)

Hey mate,
just wanted to let you know that I did it.
Used SEUS to flash to latest stock FW.
Then unlocked bootloader, and flashed CWM using this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588331
Then flashed the latest SuperSU via CWM, and successfully obtained root.
Then I used the v3.4 of the exchange patch here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117452
voila. 4.3, rooted, CWM, and with exchange security overridden.

Locked bootloader for me unfortunately...

[TUT]New way to get root! (4.4.2 and below)

Well, if anyone's been following the front page recently, Geohot was able to create an apk that would root our phones that is running Kernels before June 3. Tested it myself and figured it's the easiest way to root if you're on Kitkat. This should work on most phones, if not all.
Source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2783157
APK Download: towelroot.com
1. Download towel root apk from towelroot.com.
2. Run towel root and let it install the SU binary and reboot your phone. (With the latest update, You don't need to reboot your phone to be rooted)
3. Download and install Super SU apk version 2.0 from playstore or here.
4. Run super SU and let it update its binary by normal method (no recovery needed if super SU version is 2.0+).
[Optional]:
5. Reboot and run Super SU yet again and go to settings to move Super SU into /system as a system apk.
6. Reboot to get full root as system app.
7. Install recovery and busybox (busybox should not be installed in case of using [nut]'s dual recovery).
Steps provided by Cookie Ninja. (Modified a bit by me)
RECOVERY: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261606
and that's pretty much it. Installed recovery, Updated my Binary through TWRP and I'm all set. :laugh: (You can update it through the normal method now. It's fixed!)
I've tested this on my Xperia Z (C6603) Locked Bootloader running 4.4.2 Stock Kitkat 10.5.A.0.230
Confirmed Working for LB 4.4.2 and 4.3.
If you're looking to root 4.4.4, please follow this guide by KingVortex

Not tried yet, but if it works ( and i think so) geohot is a genius. Again. :thumbup:

Interesting indeed. Wonder how pinkie pie found that one
In case anyone is interested is using a very similar to exploit to rage Against the cage.. An old exploit
http://thesnkchrmr.wordpress.com/2011/03/24/rageagainstthecage/
This will trigger most anti viruses, can't see anything else in there that's dodgy, but it's just the brute force attack ratc that triggers them.

Yeah. It works. You need only install SuperSu.apk v1.99 because this from market play cant actuall binaries.

what should i need to do? Tnx!

It depends on what caused the problem...
In most situations its enough to flash correct firmware in Odin (you won't lose any personal data). If this doesn't solve your problem, then you should make factory reset in recovery mode.

tnx alot!

First of all you have to know your device model and CSC.
Model should be something like SM-N910C/F/H etc. It is written in download mode or under battery.
CSC you can find in recovery mode. It will be written on the bottom of the screen (for example: XEO/XEH/...).
Then go to www.sammobile.com and under FIRMWARE section put that informations. Choose the newest software from the list and flash it with Odin.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH ON HELPING WITH THAT!

No problem.
It is hard for me to say which exactly CSC code you have, so what can I suggest is to install this XEO 5.0.1 firmware - http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/47802/N910CXXU1BOE3_N910COXA1BOE3_XEO/ .
Probably it isn't your country code and it will couse some "force close" errors after boot. If so, go to recovery mode again and check correct CSC code. You will not see "dm-verity verification failed" error anymore as soon as you won't try to root or something like that. After checking correct CSC you can finally get correct firmware file and bring your device back to normal life.

Sure you can. But you have to chose correct firmware for your model. There is no XEO variant of N910F so you can only flash German one when 5.1.1 (or any other) is out. In most situations it will work fine without wipe, but if you want to get DBT OTA's in the future, you have to do factory reset.

sorry noobo here, how do i know which firmware is the correct one :/

Check it here:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N910F/DBT/
When Samsung release 5.1.1 ".tar" file, it will be shown on the top of the list. Then you can download it and flash to your phone. It is firmware for SM-N910F N4 DBT (Germany).
You can also flash 5.0.1 file and factory reset your phone. When 5.1.1 is available you will get OTA update.
