This guide will teach you on how to flash using this tool in case you've bricked your device or simply want to update on a rooted phone. This procedure does not require your bootloader to be unlocked.
1. | We start by downloading the tool from it's official website located here:
http://www.flashtool.net/downloads.php
You now want to install it with the downloaded installer and also install the required drivers if you don't have them(located in C:/Flashtool/Drivers).

2.| After the install we open the flash tool and click on the xperifirm button to download the firmware for our selected model.
3.| We download the firmware that rmatches our model and download it.
4.| You should now close xperifirm and click yes when it asks you to add a flash script and if you want to add the firmware to the bundle.
5.| We connect our device in flash mode by holding down the volume - and plugging the cable to pc and phone.
6. | In The flashtool, we click on the flash button, select flashmode, select your phone and model and firmware you download and configure the options on the right. After click flash and wait till the procedure completes.
Here is a video if you prefer that form of a guide:

Doesnt work for me... In UK, tried to De-brand from O2 uk... even installed the fastboot Google drivers from Flashtool folder, which installed fine. Flashtool cant "see" the downloaded rom, even using browser
Anyone flashed using NewFlasher...
I don't get asked if I want to create flash scripts and then when I want to flash the Flashtool says that it needs the flash script
EDIT: okay it seems that one can use an older flash script, see: github.com/Androxyde/Flashtool/issues/103

After one year and fully upgraded still doesn't work... Can someone tell me why? Thank you anticipated!
The option to add to the bundle didn't come up once I downloaded the firmware.

Hello everybody !
If you have downgraded from Lolipop to a KitKat ROM and you have issued black screen during call, I have find the solution:
You don't need to flash the Stock ROM. Just flash a Modem from a Stock ROM, Lolipop Modem doesn't work fine on KitKat, proximity sensor is busy and the screen don't wake up during call.
You can find here the latest Stock Modem (XNPH05Q) : MEGA | MediaFire
MD5 : 2fff2a1d9719294db84b714f4389ce6f
You don't need to wipe anything and it doesn't wipe anything. Just flash it and enjoy

Can't get it to install with TWRP. When I try to do it, TWRP restarts. On reboot still get black screen on phone call. Is it indeed flashable from recovery?
Yay, of course, it's a flashable .zip, do you use the latest release of TWRP (2.8.6.X) ?

Mmh, I try to flash and it's works fine, here a screenshot :

Then there's something wrong with the recovery or file. Try Calkulin's modem? If it fails again I think there is something wrong with your TWRP. Btw, you need to manually fastboot erase modem in order to flash the KK modem. Last time I tried it won't let me overwrite Lollipop modem with KK modem.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/rom-stock-rooted-xnph05q-t3027033
I can overwrite LP modem with KK modem.
The flashable zip seems work fine on two OnePlus. I think it's his recovery who doesn't work
TWRP 2.8.6.0, haven't had any issues with it aside with this. Just tried flashing it, didn't know I needed to fastboot erase the LP modem.
Probably better it didn't work when I tried; made me go in search of a different rom I haven't tried yet [emoji51]
i flashed the lollipop official rom "N900XXUEBOA6_N900OXEEBOA7_SKZ.zip" for Kazakhstan to prepare to install on of the developer roms which demand installing official lollipop before it, then when i try to install any recovery i got a failed message on Odin can any one help me ?

why cross my fingers? is there a risk of brick?
what do I do if I don't have fingers?
Whenever you flash anything to a phone, there is always the possibility of something going wrong, such as a power failure, flashing incorrectly, etc.
I know that, that's why I want to make sure I do everything right first!
Just scaring you, you cna always reinstall the stock ROM or whatever you like
Its simple for flash/install TWRP

Nice that looks great. Question: In how far is this better or any different from Wug Fresh (beneth the fact that yours does not offer root)?

Thanks for making such a great work! :good: I don't want to be rude, but some people are looking for a tool to completely replace NRT. Is there anything missing in your tool that we should be aware of? Anything we can not do but doable with NRT? Is it 100% compatible with Win10 and 8.1 factory images? Thanks!

For now all is working good, the only think you can't do with this tool is to root your phone, nrt tool use a modified boot.img to root it and for now i don't want to make the same
Hi @all,
in the past i flashed my Xc back to mm, backuped TA-Partition and tested 8.0 Omni Rom. After that i flashed back to stock including TA, everything was OK, bl ist locked again. Then i dont use the phone a long time.
Now i want to use it, but not with so much bloatware from sony. I found this tread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/x-compact/how-to/stock-8-0-root-recovery-t3747479
I downloaded newest Flashtool 09.24.4, but Xperifirm shows at all fw N/A , N/A, N/A ....
Then i manually download xperifirm.
with version 5.3.6 always N/A , N/A, N/A
with version 5.2.0 it is OK
I downloaded stock oreo fw. After downloading an unpacking i enter flashtool and create ftf. Now, when i try to flash this apears:

"lightbox_next": "Next",

I tested it at an second pc, same problem. A test with flashtool 0.9.23 shows a red error. Because its a stock fw, i think at this moment it is not nesessary to have bl already unlocked?
In developer opinions, bl oem unlock und usb debugging is on.
Whats my problem? What did i wrong?
Greetings

strange that it says no fsc script, if you created with Xperifirm... Did yo move the file to a different folder after build? I have seen that before, but usually because I used an ftf downloaded from somewhere else. If you downloaded from Xperifirm, and then closed Xperifirm and let FT build, usually everything would be there...
Hi,
i selected the downloaded and extracted fw (loaded an extracted by xperifirm) by flashtool and then dont move the files.
This morning flash was possible. I unlocked bl and use sony´s tool "Emma" for flashing. Took developers fw. Then before booting flash by fastboot boot.img (with my TA) an twrp recovery. Now phone runs fine.
But, the looked bl wasnt the problem???
I tried the combination file to unlocked i flashed the lastest firmware b9. But now i can't boot up . The screen just stayz at no command also i cant get into recovery mode

your using the Binary 9 like me... i scoured the net for custom roms but to no avail. So in short, theres no root for G935PVPS9CSB1 we need to wait for the TWRP to find a root way or something. to get rid of the soft brick just flash the stock recovery OFW in odin. all you need is the 'AP_....' file . here is the link[ https://fws04.updato.com/GALAXYS7EDGE/SM-G935P/SPR/SM-G935P_1_20190208104514_im5a3nxxn5_fac.zip"] after that just wait patiently
