Hi All,
Where can I get the totally stock Sony Xperia Z 4.2.2 ROM from if I want the default Sony Xperience?
Mine has been customised by my carrier so I have no idea when I will get the latest update with it and I dont want to sit around waiting for them for ages.
A quick check with show you this:

Not sure whether you can flash this if your phone is locked by carrier
Yours is C6602, or C6603? Ether ways there are plenty of stock roms for each.
I created a Website to gather FTF for Japanese version Xperia since Japanese models generally doesn't have xda thread or other websites to share FTF.
http://ftf.xn--l8je9byecb9a3syb.xn--q9jyb4c/
At the moment there are only few models and versions since I couldn't find others...
If someone has FTF not listed on the Website, please post here.
I'll add it on the Website.
Devices on the Website (7/31):
Xperia acro IS11S
Xperia SX SO-05D
Xperia VL SOL21
Xperia Z SO-02E
Xperia UL SOL22
Xperia Tablet Z SO-03E
Xperia A SO-04E
Xperia Z1 SO-01F
Xperia Z1 SOL23
Xperia Z Ultra SOL24
Xperia Z1 f SO-02F
Xperia Z2 SO-03F
Xperia A2 SO-04F
Xperia ZL2 SOL25
thank you so much ! this is helpful site
Incredibly appreciated! Hopefully some of the international exploits will be found to be effective on these firmwares as well. Following the 2ch threads on root, and it seems like the biggest breakthrough has still been the restoration of DRM functions after unlock, but no actual root with a locked bootloader yet.
If we could just get that TA partition backup we'd be in the clear to flash...
That's a very neat site! ありがとう！
thank you so much ! for sol25 zl2

If you want the system apps you can flash only the system portion of the ftf file. If you want the kernel, you'll brick your phone.

You can flash Lollipop firmware for D5503 on your device. I also have a Japanese phone that is running a US Lollipop ROM (.236).

can anybody tell me how to flash without relocking baseband?
Cool I flashed my Xperia SX with newer firmware downloaded from your pages and now my phone is docomo-locked. What can I do?
Why you put the firmware on google drive? Do you know hard for me to download it? I lose 5gb mobile data, suck google no pause resume for that and always failed if download reach 2-2,5gb so sad.
Hello, XDA members
I've gotten my hands on a really cheap Xperia X2 that was originally sold in China, and as a result the entire interface is in Chinese. I've managed to find a copy of a generic English ROM, but I have no idea how to flash it.
I'm familiar with the process of flashing ROMs to the older Xperia X1, but that phone was built by HTC, so I'm going to assume the method is completely different for the Sony-built X2.
The file I've downloaded is X2_1233-7729_GENERIC_EN_R3AA035_CDF1234-0918_R10A.software
I've also downloaded a cab that will change the phone's region and allow the phone to install software from a different region if connected to the Sony update service. I don't have the phone yet, so I'm not able to do much testing. But the update software available from Sony's website only supports Android-based Xperia models.
So, I have two questions:
1. Does someone know how to take that funky .software file and flash it to the phone?
or
2. Can anyone verify that if I download an old copy of the update service, it will still be able to connect to Sony and download a ROM for the phone?
Hello,
Does anyone know where I would be able to get any (Customized DE) Stock ROM for the Xperia X Compact (F5321)? I found the site xperiafirmware.com but they only offer the CE Version. I also tried to download and unpack the German Version with XperiFirm. But I couldn't manage to bundle the files with Flashtool, since there was no Xperia X Compact to select from the Devices Menu. And I also didn't know which files exactly to include and which not. Also what about the files in the "boot" folder, should they be included? I also can't upgrade the Phone via the "Emma" Flash Tool from Sony either, because the phone isn't recognized by it.
So the simplest solution would be to just be able to get the Stock ROM ftf File from somewhere or someone and flash it via the Xperia (non official) Flashtool.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Simon
You have to close all windows except main flashtool after downloading. Then file will be created. Do you need nougat or marshmallow?
Since there is no operating system currently installed on the phone and the update from Marshmallow to Nougat failed. I guess Marshmallow would be the best option to recover the phone.
And even if I close all windows, I still can't select the Xperia X Compact in the Flashtool Devices Menu.
Which version do you use? Here you can download latest MM ftf.
