Hey, like the title say I want to extract the entire system to FTF file, classic FTF from my phone to flash it on other Z1.
How I can do that and which application I have to use?
Thanx in advance.

If you have recovery on both devices you can just backup on one and restore on other device.
You can restore system only without data and apps.
Google for tutorial, if you need ftf and can't do that with recovery.

They are Stock, no recovery, no root, I have to connect via USB and extract the FTF. I googled for tutorial and I get one for X10, Z and ICS but was not really helping and they are not for Z1 so if you can just semplify the search posting the right link or app for Z1 I will appreciate it.
Thanx.

So, nothing there.
I'm not sure for link, I just said - try to Google.
Hmm...
Really don't know, I guess extracting dump won't help to create ftf.
You checked on NUT thread?
He has tutorial for creating ftf, it's not same but maybe you get idea from there?
Check here and try to ask NUT on this thread - I'm sure he will know the answer.

Perhaps the Sony PC Companion app would be useful?

It's not meant to be an apk that you install onto the phone.
(1) Download the file onto your PC and unzip it.
(2) Enable USB Debugging mode on your phone.
(3) Connect the phone to your PC.
(4) Click on the "SuperOneClick" file in the unzipped folder.
(5) Click on the "Root" button.
(6) Wait until it says that root is successful.
(7) Unplug your phone from the PC and manually reboot it.
(8) Your phone is unrooted!
thanks, I will get a laptop from my work this evening and try.
So (yes I am a noob) should I downloading this file on the phone or on the computer??

You should be downloading it to a PC and running it from there.
Oh, I forgot to add that you need to reboot your phone manually before it is detected to be rooted.

I think you can create one but it won't be signed so it will only flash on unlocked BL phones like every other custom rom.

It's a .tft file, you can use flashtool to create it, you will need the blob fs folder from an ota update though!

Yes, I am doing it the exact same way I have done 100's of times before..
And there ware about half a dozen files. I will do it again and this time just take the 4 biggest...
OK, this is embarrassing. I cannot make this FTF correctly. It is always around 500MB and wont flash. It gives the error
Code:
ERROR - ERR_SEVERITY="MINOR";ERR_CODE="0017";ERR_DYNAMIC=" 0x80060011 ";
I am doing it the exact same way I have done hundreds if not thousands of times before on the Xperia T, Neo and X10. I am using the same laptop as before (Lenovo think pad running win 7). the only thing that is different is that I am using the latest flashtool (0.9.11.0)
I get no errors when flashtool makes the FTF and I get no errors when PCCmpanion uses the files to "repair" my phone.
Here is what I am doing.
1) Running pccompanion and choosing software repair
2) Letting it complete
3) Running flashtool and clicking on tools/seus decrypt/
4) Browsing to where the files are downloaded in the blobs folder
5) Clicking on all the files that it finds to convert them, moving to them to the right pane and clicking convert
6) Letting it complete and then using all those files in the bundle creation.
Like I say, flashtool gives no errors.
If I am missing something basic, please let me know and you have my permission to laugh at me and add to a faceplam thread.
Its really bugging me now though.
Thanks

All the same as I do except I delete the blobs folder first before updating and unplug the device whilst PCCompanion is downloading the updates. I'm using the same version of flashtool as you with the Z1 device package.
Should all work as you have said, puzzled am I.

fix it
. Using a root-enabled file manager, navigate to /system/etc/permissions
2. Edit platform.xml and find the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission.
3. Add an additional group definition for this permission...<group gid="media_rw" />
4. Save the changes to the file.
5. Restart.
Or
download attachment file extract & move to system/etc/promission

Give it a rest. We get it. The changes to external SD access have inconvenienced you. The changes are no surprise, so you shouldn't have upgraded if it was so critical to you to continue having full read/write access with every app.
Either use one of the fixes suggested in this thread or in the other thread you're complaining repeatedly in, or downgrade to 4.3.

This is a development site. Most people here are perfectly capable of rooting to workaround issues like this or even of checking critical changes in Android updates before blindly updating. I posted about this change in KitKat a few times in the large thread about the update that you've participated in, for a start.
Repeatedly complaining after you've been told how to fix your issue is doing nothing but pointlessly flooding threads in any case. Please stop.

Dude I can do anything I like and there is no error .. So if you really dont know why its not working for you simply just downgrade to 4.3 rather just thinking of others , if they like the phone they will keep it and if they dont then obviously everyone has their own choice to sell it or buy it. So please stop complaining and take some time to fix it if its not working for you then just simply downgrade ... AND CHILL
