Been created and fully tested via latest Flashtool, which can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2162907
Also note if you are unable to flash this ROM with flashtool, make sure you untick TA, confirmed to be working.
Awesome flashtool tutorial specifically for the Xperia Z http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2240614
Also if you want to make a CWM or TWRP flashable file a great tutorial can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183077
I can confirm a new firmware update for NFC.
New Baseband, hopefully that fixes network drop outs - Confirmed it hasn't really helped much, still get no network errors often, clicking retry works fine (very frustrating)
Lightflow (coloured LED notifications) works fine in non root mode, not as well but still very usable (colour cycling of the flashing is a little more random).
Can confirm that the USB interface is much faster, seems to be at least twice as fast accessing the internal or external SD
Can confirm that the WIFI has the same problems as .434 and .350 for me. couldn't establish initial connection to any access point until I fresh rebooted the access point, and signal strength is pretty much the same.
Not sure what others are talking about new kernel, it is the exact same kernel for me

Indeed, 4 hours to download. Thanks to the OP and everything but I'll elsewhere.
Right guys, I had uploaded it to netload via FTP, and am not sure where it is, will look for the link or give you the username and password temporarily.
I will also upload it to depositfiles.

I have just updated the OP, are you using the latest beta flashtool?, and do you have all the drivers installed?
I have also included a link so you can make a CWM or TWRP flashable zip from this FTF file, if that helps

Seems that this last firmware version is unrootable, so,is there some regional or localized firmware .434 that when is rooted, it could offer a .235 OTA update?
My phone was bought from Telstra, and come with some Bigpond & Telstra apps.
The build number is 10.1.A.1.350
There are no any updates when I check in Software update
So, should I flash this firmware

This ROM is from Australia, my phone is not from any Cell provider therefore not locked to anyone. Each provider will customise and lock the ROMs to their networks, this takes time which is why you will not get the update yet. Wow, I can't believe that they are so far behind still. .434 was released in Australia the day the phone was officially released in Australia
You can flash this ROM over top of your current ROM and provided that you do not wipe the data partition you should retain all your apps and settings. Unless the bigpond or telstra apps are part of the system apps rather than installed apps then you might loose those.

I am not really sure, I don't think so though. I believe the non branded ones are pretty much global ROMs, and the localisation is typically only from the providers apn, the internet and mms settings that you download at the start.
I bought my phone from Sony Central and still havent received this damn update...pissed! Downloading this now.

It should be, I bought it from the Sony Central shop in Chatswood so direct from Sony. Jeesh, you would think these models would get the update first. I see some posts on Whirlpool with others in the same situation.
I've tried on PC Companion, Bridge for mac and the phone itself.
I got mine at Harvey Norman here in Melbourne - update appeared same as the others...strange yours didn't
I did flash the Singtel version that was posted in General so thanks to the OP for this - going to have some flashing to do this evening

Yeah, it's quite outdated :crying:
The phone is unlocked from Telstra but Telstra branded. That's why I hate branded phone, but Telstra offers 2 year warranty service. and Sony is quite unstable phone, easily got bricked.
I did install CWM recovery and root it.
Does it affect to OTA update? Should I unroot it to have the OTA update?
For rooting 14.4.A.0.157 update go to this thread by @Waledac but use following kernels for your device (Z1 Compact):
MOD EDIT @gregbradley
Please re-upload to another download site that does not require a redirect to a commercial site.
Please check your PMs
Thread closed until this is fixed
Thanks that worked fine for me,
i finally took the kernel only from the customized_de Firmware, don't know if there is any difference between these files.
My Z1C was rootet, then the Update to x.157 came and i couldn't update it via OTA or PCC. So i flashed the new Firmware with the flashtool and my root was gone.
All other Root Tools like towelroot, newroot or easyroottooll didn't work.
So it finally worked with your little instruction. Thanks!
Root is back
Thanks alot. After upgrading to .157 via PC Companion (OTA didn't work) I lost my root. This brought it back, while all other tools failed.
With another firmware
I update myphone to 157 via flashtool but with a BAL firmware, is this solution still working? it doesn't matter if my actual firmware is customized or not?

Hi,
I was on 108. Updated to 157 through PC companion, lost root and got root back by following the steps in the OP link with the files provided here. A couple of questions I have:
1. How to get CWM back?
2. Is it safe to apply mods for 108 on this such as the mod for a single screen status bar, dark apps for dialers etc?
Thanks for the work and for any insights.
apv
hard brick?
followed the linked guide, but flashed the 108 kernel for the big z1 on my z1c, and now phone wont boot. Is it possible to fix that?
---------- Post added at 02:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:06 AM ----------
never mind, managed to fix it with flashtool, even though I probably was REALLY close to a hard brick (no boot, no flash mode, just fastboot (blue led))
worked for me too thanks!
although I couldn't download the files from the OP I got them from Xperifirm..
the OTA wouldn't verify (not deodexed) so had to update from PCC and follow this..
I used the CE1 version from Xperifirm..

Update: Flashed 108 kernel again, verified still rooted, installed CWM following info available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261606
Subsequent to that, flashed 157 kernel again.
Now having the 157 kernel, with root and CWM and have been flashing various mods that were working earlier on 108 with no issues so far (have installed the dark apps mod for clock, dialer, calender etc and the mod for having a single tab notification/status bar with 6 icons in a row).
Been about 5 days since I did this and so far, everything is working fine.

Worked like a charm. Thank you!

Hi! Have you found the answer? I'm in the same situation, maybe someone can help!
I have found strange bug in G900IZTU1BOA1 firmware.
When you disable/freeze/remove/debloat from custom recovery or even download and change launcher from default touchwizz to nova (for example), you will be not able to boot phone after picking reboot from power menu. After quite long waiting time with black screen, you'll get info that system proccess has been stopped and 2 optrions (wait and ok).
After removing battery and boot everything seems to be fine again.
Anyone else?
What with other variants of Galaxy S5?

Good news, seems that the new FW 28.0.A.8.260 is rolling out today! First devices got that update in xperia firm, so lets hope for bugfix and better touch response!
Just downloaded and flashed via flashtool/xperia firm ..... no MM ... minor system update with bugfixes ... nothing new here ... Better performance scrolling, wiping etc. No more lags with nova launcher. Touch also seems better on first sight.
Thank you ! One question, seems that pc companion update is not working today...update check doesn´t work, maybe problems on sony´s side?
It offered me the update here in Austria with Bootloader unlocked Generic German FW .... But i couldn install because of the unlock so i went the flashtool/xperia firmware route ....now i miss the root on the new update -.-
Sent from my LG-H815 using XDA Free mobile app
Youre right bro!!! Seems good news....
Fingers crossed hoping a better keyboard touch response and optimized RAM managing.
Edit: After installing it, noticed an smoother screen scrolling and an AWESOME touch response, even with a 0.3mm thick tempered glass screen protector, the keyboard response is Perfect!!!
Good Job Sony.
Just Rooting W/O unlocking left
Hi !
Do you think i can skip .251 and wait the Z4 will propose me the .260 directly OTA ?
Or should I first go through .251 to be able to get to 260
I have not yet upgraded to 251 because of the touch issues...
Thanks.

It should be no problem to flash directly to .260 with flashtool if the touch issues are better. Will update my device today with flashtool as pc companion don´t give me that option since yesterday...maybe the servers from sony mobile are not reachable within pc companion but flashtool and/or xperiafirm is the answer

androplus kernel is working on update, so I really hope that someone will make a flashable -maybe prerooted- image for TWRP.
I finally rooted+recovery after months of waiting, I'm really too lazy to restart from a FTF
One day after update my FW i think i can say it´s an improvement in touch! No problems so far will hope this problem is finally resolved!
Does anyone know if it would be safe to flash another region firmware to my tablet?
Needing this update but hasn't been released to me yet.
Mine has carrier branded firmware, they are infamous for releasing updates VERY slowly, if at all.
If it is safe, which region would you suggest?

Choose any FTF with should work with your preferred character set.
With the LTE versions there could be some differences with enabled radio bands or not. I would try a HK version first.
Head over to xperia cross devices. There you'll find a thread about unlocking all radio bands. Dunno if it works with SGP771.

No .260 in the UK yet so I fancy "flashing". Just one question, I understand that I can use firmware from almost anywhere but what does "customized" mean in the Xpreifirm tool? I have an unbranded SGP712 so don't suddenly want to be locked into a vendor's bloatware!
Thanks
A word of caution if flashing an ftf. Make sure MXTP is disabled - especially if you reset after flashing or you will brick your tablet. This because I was stupid and forgot, resulting in my tablet having to go away for repair. Point of note - Sony UK offered to fix it but quoted 7 - 10 days turnaround. O2 did it in 3.

Mine was updated to this fw but no signal on my f3115. It was updated from sony service center due to need repair of charging port. Help.
I updated today to this new firmware and I'm now facing an annoying bug. Every time I reboot my phone some of my settings are reseted to default. For example "Font size" will go back to default. It will say in settings "Small" even though it isn't. Has anyone else encountered this problem?
Updated today, so far so smooth
It drains my battery... Anyone experiencing this? Like while im downloading through wifi battery is around 30% in seven minutes its drained. Device location is already turned off... Using wifi for the download. Factory reset done as well as battery reset...
