Any chance someone still has this ftf? I borked my z2 tab today and was looking for the latest firmware to flash that is still rootable. Think this is it. Endpoint will be running cm11 or cm12.

Thank you for this. I managed to get a Chinese 402 fimware downloaded, created an ftf out of it and flashed it successfully. Would be more helpful if this wasn't a Chinese build but its a start.
Edit: I chose 402 as its the latest firmware that is supported by doomlord root and recovery. The endpoint is to be back on CM11/12. Having a tough time as im not able to boot to recovery from the Chinese build. Also seems that there is a possible hardware issue as I am having intermittant connectivity issues with the tablet. It seems to come in and out of flash mode on its own in the flashtool. I am trying to flash a different firmware but it wont stay in flash mode long enough for the firmware flash to complete successfully. Pretty frustrating. I noticed this usb issue while using chargers over the last month or so too. Tablet would show that it was charging for a second then not charging intermittently. I thought it could be rom related which inspired the want to ftf back to stock but i think that there is something physically wrong with this tab now. Shame as its only six months old and was barely used.

wooo bad luck buddy, you should take it back to sony while you still got the chance (under warranty). If you have saved the DRM keys before unlocking the bootloader, you should relock it and flash a stock ftf (Canadian version). i dont know why the OP link doesnt work. but i had just checked my box account and the files are still there the .402 one
SGP511 Wifi Generic CA .402: https://app.box.com/s/o3webtra06yvet2zuva47vka3h981s4l
if the link does not work you either have to create a Box account or give me your email. i dont know why Box is like this.
gl buddy :highfive:

Thanks for the support
I tried again with the box link and it says: "the item you are trying to access has been deleted or is unavailable to you" Ill PM you my address.

Hello all,
I need this FW to flash the kernel of this thread (for CWM recovery + root) :

Good news

Very good news

Today I received an update on the PC Companion (I have the French version, not on a specific carrier) but it's stuck on error 1200 (Sony Mobile Update Engine Error 1200).
I will try to fix this error and let you know.

did you try to delete the folder with the numeric name in: "C:\ProgramData\Sony Mobile\Update Engine\db\"
and then start again?
by the way, is it possible to root the new firmware with EasyRootTool?

Solved error 1200 by desactivating my antivirus
Now, it's downloading the firmware (it will take around 2 hours)... and yes, I have a poor internet connexion :crying:
According to this tutorial (to share the firmware once it will be downloaded), I have to use Flashtool. But if I look on the "Tools3 menu, I dont' see the option "SEUS Decrypt". What should I do ?

False alarm, it's the same firmware than I had
I already was using firmware 14.4.A.0.108 and it updated to the same one ? And why today ? Maybe a second edition ?
@Pakman123 : what do you mean by my si number ? Is it 1279-7243 ?

The Z2 got very nice updtae to 4.4.4 with changelog similar to Z3 (camera apps, PS4 etc.)
I hope our Z1c will have the same update too..

Bear with me if this is a stupid question, but this is my first Sony phone. I have a UK unlocked S5503 running 14.4.A.0.108 which I bought second hand. It appears to have originally been sold by Virgin Mobile and some carrier-specific apps are in present in the ROM. For some reason also I'm not getting any LTE - the options under mobile networks/network mode are only 3G or GSM.
What I want to do is flash my phone to a stock unlocked UK firmware such as this one, when it finally comes out - which hopefully should get rid of the carrier apps and give me LTE.
What sort of update file should I be looking for? how are roms normally packaged, as full updates to flash from the PC or as updates you can flash from the phone itself? how can I tell which is which?

[FIX] fix fingerprint on US version rom of Xperia Z5 Compact

Hi,
So here I am I thought to myself it would be good idea to test US firmware so when I found an update (it was 32.2.A.0.305) I changed to us version but ended up not having fingerprint at all, so I checked everything a bit and figured it out that there are apps and libs and permissions and etc... missing from the system, so I download another firmware (MEA) and run a whole difference process to find out what has been changed in the system, so I deodexed the whole system, add the missing things (but deodexed though it would be good to someone tell me what is this fidoclient thing and fpc?) and then reflashed it, didn't worked at first, but as I had been added libs I suspected that there must be a change at the kernel level so I flashed MEA kernel and things started to working, I had finger prints at lock screen and telegram (boy I'm so happy right now :victory
Conclusion (Results):
There have been changes and some apps were missing from app and priv-app, libs were missing from libs and libs64 and vendor, permissions were missing in etc/permissions, a shell was missing from bin, and kernel should be a non US version to work! and that's it!
What you need:
A US 32.2.A.0.305 firmware flashed on your phone already,
Some Recovery (TWRP Recommended)... so you can flash the recovery file I give you (or by root and put the files in there manually ofcourse)
Flashtool -> http://www.flashtool.net/downloads.php
This file which has system addons to flash in recovery
This file FOR E5803 ONLY which is a kernel only to flash in flashtool (or a non-US kernel which you can flash it anyway you like which is recommended to having your own kernel for flash)
Common sense (necessary)
Instructions:
Go to recovery (assuming you have one) and flash the finger-print-fix.zip (assuming you know how to flash a zip)
Turn off your phone (in TWRP recovery you can go to Reboot -> Turn off)
Go into the flashmode (or fastboot mode) and flash any NON_US kernel (custom stock kernels will work as well)
Reboot into system and viola! you have fingerprint working
Report if works!
Enjoy!
Press the Thanks :good: button

This works great for me! I'm using a new US Z5 Compact on 32.2.A.0.305, with TWRP 3 and AndroPlus kernel.

Working great for me too. US Z5 Compact on 32.2.A.0.305 with http://forum.xda-developers.com/z5-compact/general/customized-stock-kernel-32-2-0-305-6-0-1-t3477464 .

Yeah, I ended up switching to this kernel for the DRM fix to work on the US firmware.

What advantages are there to staying with the US firmware versus installing firmware from another country that already has the fingerprint scanner software?

I have flashed the LAM version (Latin America) of the E5803. I haven't noticed anything wildly different. I get fingerprint scanner with E5803 specific software. I haven't noticed any difference between call clarity or signal strength. All that with the added benifit of a locked bootloader and full original TA partition.

What version of the Latin firmware did you flash onto you E5803? I flashed the Customized UK V32.2.A.0.253 firmware on my E5803, and everything worked great. But a few days ago I let my phone do an over-the-air firmware update to V32.2.A.0.305. After it did so, the phone no longer detected my SIM. It continually displayed the "No SIM - No Service" message across the notification bar. Furthermore, when I would go to device settings to have it display the SIM information, it displayed error for all fields (or unknown, I forget which it was). I re-installed the Customized UK V32.2.A.0.253 firmware again and everything started working.
Just curious to see what version of the LA firmware you installed, I might try moving to that one if its some variant of V32.2.A.0.305.

In my previous post I was using the firmware for Z5803 Market: "Generic LAM", Operator: "Customized GEL". However, there was a notification that was slightly bothersome that required me to kill an app every time I rebooted. Therefore, I switched to Market: "Turkey", Operator: "Customized TR". I also switched because the Customized TR is actually the same Revison of software "R4C" as the "Customized US" software version. In-fact, I don't know if this is a placebo effect but the device doesn't seem to overheat as much now that I am on the "Customized TR" (Turkey) version.

I have not yet experienced an OTA update with this device yet so I cannot speak to what issues you might encounter using this method with OTA updates. XperiaFirm download and flash process isn't that horrible and since the updates are so infrequent (shame on Sony) it's almost a non-issue.

"Customized GEL" (Latin America Version): The version was 32.2.A.0.305 / R7C
"Customized TR" (Turkey Version): The version was 32.2.A.0.305 / R4C
Bottom Line
I live and work in the US only and haven't noticed any difference between the US version, Latin America version, or Turkey version with the exception of the fingerprint reader.

So you actually installed the E5803 firmware for Turkey and Latin American, and both enabled the fingerprint scanner?
I thought you had to install one of the E5823 International firmwares to enable the scanner (which is what I did).
If the above is correct, let me know. I may try to flash one of the E5803 firmwares.

Murphamillion said:

Yes Turkey and Latin America both are Z5803 specific firmware and both allow the fingerprint scanner to work. I'm pretty sure any firmware except the US firmware has the fingerprint scanner enabled. From what I have read, Hewlett Packard (HP) holds a US patent that would be cost prohibitive for Sony to license in the US.
God Bless America.

Fingerprint scanner didn't work on any firmware. My problem was in loose contact of FP scanner with it's socket. Disassembled my phone, cleaned, reassembled.

Are there any side-effects? Many phones once installed with a custom rom have bad things like that the sim card keeps disappearing

How to update and review f8131 xperia x performance to new android 7.0 nougat.

Hey there, this is a Guide to Update the Xperia X Performance F8131 To the new Android 7.0 Nougat, also with a Small Review if you want to know what’s new, or you will wait for your region to be available.
I made this guide because i had an issue that i tried to flash the FTF via flash tool, but it is useless the flash tool needs to be updated before we can flash android 7.0 Updates. DO NOT TRY TO FLASH THE _39.2.A.0.327 YOU WILL BREAK THE SYSTEM OF YOUR PHONE. Also for those like me that doesn't want to wait for the update to be available in your region.
First of All i am not responsible of bricked phones by using this guide.
Review about the Software (WITH SCREENSHOTS)​
Well First of All is that the lockscreen have a few New Changes for the notifications and the clock (its bigger Now)
Now the Quick Widgets in the notification bar are now small al of them.
Also the Wifi and antenna icons are slightly different
Now we have Stamina levels that we can Change to get better Battery.
On Camera we have the new Camera APP that Xperia XZ Has that can change many more things in manual mode.
Contact and Dialer have a few Changes.
It feels Slightly Faster than before, so you can check it up.
Thats all i can tell from now, we will see in the time.
Process to do the Update:​1- You will need the latest flash tool available, you can download it in http://www.flashtool.net/downloads.php if you don’t know how to use this tool, please search on the internet first.
2- You will need the software update F8131 35.0.A.1.275 Customized RU you can download it here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxPbn7RHkJD1WElDV2xHMkhyMzg/view Thanks to [email protected]
3- What you will actually do, it’s to flash the 6.0 MM ftf on your phone for Russia because in that region it’s available to download OTA the Update for 7.0 Nougat.
4- Flash the downloaded FTF on your phone with the usual method (Remember to charge your phone at least at 80%, you will need that battery).
5- When your phone finished and booted, just connect to a Wireless Network and go to settings ----> About Phone -----> Software Update and click update and let it work.
6- You will do 2 updates, one to the 6.0 Update .297 and then the 7.0 Nougat update will be available.
7- Enjoy the new software Update

Stock ROM for Xperia X Compact?

Hi, I assume someone much smarter than me will be able to point me to a Sony Xperia standard/stock ROM which I can flash with TWRP.
I had loaded TWRP and manages to accidentally wipe out the system with no backup (it's a new phone anyway). I found some ROMS from European telcos, etc. but would like to install the "standard" Sony Xperia ROM for XC.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
PS. I think it would be easiest for me to able to install it through TWRP.... but obviously, anyway to recover my phone would be great.
PPS. Still can access device with adb and Flashtool, but not from Fastboot or Sony PC Companion.
PPS. I have installed OmniROM in the meantime... but don't want to spend too much time on it if I am going to wipe it out anyway.
PPS. I am in the US.
Update:
I found XperiaFirmware. It's downloading F5321_34.1.A.3.49_CE.ftf. Per the download website, will take about 18 hours on average, but it is progressing better than that.
I also found XperiFirm tool which downloads much faster, but I don't know which version. My understanding is that US customized is for CDA version of the phone. I also ran across the post about enabling the fingerprint reader by downloading the UK customized version... But based on latest attempts to do this, since UK version has been upgraded to Nougat, this approach is not working anymore...? But anyway, I could give it a shot to try a European version which is still on MM,

Update: *Whew*
I used XperiFirm to select a ROM. I didn't know which ROM, but I was intrigued to enable the fingerprint scanner. Due to some recent posts that the original method of using the Customized UK (or as they would say "Customised UK") version no longer works as the posted firmware was for Nougat. As a workaround, some people downloaded CE version, but CE version has also been recently updated to Nougat. I noticed a CE5 version which still seemed to be the MM version.
However, I also wasn't sure what differences I may see in the European version as some posters were complaining about some cosmetic differences, so I downloaded Customized US even though I thought I read somewhere it was for CDMA network. I also decided to download one called "Commercial and Journalists" which was the same MM version.
I decided to install it first as I was anxious about trying to get my phone back. I was able to load OmniROM but since there were some known issues, my preference was to use authentic Sony firmware. In addition, I took some low light pictures with the OmniROM version, and they turned out really bad. Not sure if it was the ROM or what, but it was very disappointing. Also, I couldn't get root access to it. Also, even though OmniROM seemed to support the fingerprint scanner, I couldn't get it to register my fingerprint well.
I downloaded the Commercial and Journalists version from XperiFirm, let it unpack it, and then used FlashTool to create the bundle, not including fwinfo.xml or the .ta files.
It started up Android ok, but I noticed I seemed to have lost my TWRP. Anyway, while starting up Android, guess what? The fingerprint enabled software was there... and it works like a champ!
Since I seemed to have lost TWRP, I started from instructions again from http://www.stupdroid.com/2016/10/root-sony-xperia-x-compact.html and was able to get it back.
Then, I tried to get root, but following the instructions, I got the error ""There is no su binary installed" when opening SuperSU.
I then flashed UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip from https://download.chainfire.eu/696/supersu/
And now I have root access!
Whew! I don't know what damage I've done overall... and since I don't have a nano SIM card yet, the worst case scenario is that what I have now doesn't work as a phone (but I doubt it). After what I went through (accidentally deleting the system from my Android phone), I now have a rooted Xperia X Compact with the fingerprint sensor enabled. Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good?
And, when I took some low light pics, they turned out better!
