Hi XDA,
When i create a tft file, i have only cust-reset.ta, and i haven't got flota-reset.ta. Is this ok?
And should i include cust-reset.ta or not?
Other: What do you think, T-Mobile service center dragging my warrantee if i bring my phone with Central-Europe rom?
I had my xperia j with central European rom and they don't say anything about it. I had bootloader locked.

May be even more rooting restrictions. Well I hope not.
No, it's just a small update.
I have problem while trying to create ftf. I downloaded Swisscom CH firmware via XperiFirm, it went ok, but after making bundle with FlashTool I get ftf file with only 49.9 MB? I included everything (no .ta files), selected phone from list, and it went ok, but size is not right. What else should I do?
I have to flash another firmware, because Sony update has left my phone without service. So I am hoping that another one will fix my problem.
My phone is Generic D2303 (unbranded, SIM free).
I've downloaded the Customized MY version of the firmware, and I'm having problems creating the FTF file as well. The process stalls when the bundle is being created, on the boot_delivery.xml file. Not quite sure what to do, can anyone else bundle the firmware?
use the latest version flashtools it will do it all no need to bundle or create it will do it for you now .you should have no problems with it .i am using latest version .
Thanks, I found it. Apparently problem was in bad download (I downloaded both 4.3 and 4.4 Swisscom CH firmwares and there was the same problem), and now I tried another firmware Vodafone DE and it seems to be ok, size is around 1 GB.
And it does not solve problem with SIM card.
Work?
It might work on a D2306 if I flash D2303 firmware and upgrade?

You can test it, maybe it might work. Other way around it works. I have flashed a firmware from D2306 on my D2303, for me it works perfect!
Works, i have installed first kitkat release in mine. After that i had a D2303 model listed in system.
I have updated my M2, too. Can't notice any changes to the previous KK Version.
MIRROR FOR MEGA, AUTHOR, PLEASE ADD TO THE OP

I have a D6653 bought from HK, but I live in Philippines so I am going to flash it with Philippines market since they are both D6653 so I downloaded this via XperiFirm (see attachment #2)
I am following this guide: xperiablog.net/2015/03/17/guide-to-installing-xperia-lollipop-using-xperifirm-and-flashtool
However I am lost in the part of FlashTool and I have to put a brandingsee attachment #1)
in the guide they put "Generic Nordic", what should I put in mine? Also I only intend to flash since I want to change the region to where I currently live, can I still get future updates via OTA/PC Companion for my flashed region (PH) after flashing mine?
Branding texts doesn't matter, it's only for your own administration. Just call it customised ph or something else. It doesn't matter how you name it, the output is always the same (in this case your downloaded customised ph firmware)

So if my flash my phone for Customized PH, will I get updates for Philippines via PC Companion / OTA in the future?
Thanks.
I have downloaded system update in .ftf file for xperia m2 (d2303) and I want to flash it with flashtool. And here it is my question - .ftf is version 18.3.1.C.1.15_IT and the latest update from my POLISH operator (PLAY) is 18.3.1.C.1.13. So if I flash that with .15_IT (i think that IT means ITALY) will everything be ok? Will it work so I could use my network and everything? Nothing is rooted or unlocked (I will do it later this month).
Thanks for answers
I guess it should be fine. I have flashed versions for Spain, Croatia and France and I dont live in either of those countries. Everything worked. I think the only difference is in the apps that are packaged inside. Just go ahead and try it, if I was wrong, you can always flash another version, for Poland or some other.
Thank you for answer. I'll try and hope it works
Will be fine as long as you only download the correct ftf for your device I.e. Only D2303 I started on UK ftf then changed to Customized tw as that was the only jb rom I could find. Now back on customised UK only difference is the apps that come pre-installed

Hello everyone
Can someone provide a torrent, google drive, or mega.co link for the FTF of the stock Sony Xperia M2 D2306 for Fido/Rogers Canada?
In an attempt to root the device, I Flashtool'ed a Jellybean FTF and it bootlooped. I threw it into download mode, and flashed the only available D2306 FTF on here, which is for Brazil and it works fine, but even after setting the language on first boot to English/Canada or English/US, system notifications such as "USB Connected" are still in Portuguese.
If someone can tell me how to change it properly to English/Canadian or even US English, that would work as well.
Thanks!
EDIT: Bootloader locked, can't be unlocked. Can't install CM or similar. Repair device in Sony PC Companion does so successfully, but issue still persists after.
You can make it on your own with Flashtool. Select XperiFirm (last icon on the right) select M2 D2306, wait til it's downloaded. Close XperiFirm and wait Flashtool to finish creating of ftf. When done, you'll have ftf in user/.firmware folder.
Good Luck.

You could try editing the XML file in a global firmware file to trick your docomo variant into accepting it when flashing it. Don't know if it will work though. I have done something similar with a Hong Kong variant of a Z3 a while ago and it had a few problems connecting to the mobile network afterwards.
Before anything though, I recommend reading about about backing up the TA partition and DRM keys first as once they are lost, they are gone forever.
Do you have any video
No video, but here's a similar thread about the Z3 where someone flashed D6633 firmware onto a D6683 device thus making it possible to install a custom built for a D6633 afterwards. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/q-sony-xperia-d6683.3167196/
Here's a thread about backing up your DRM keys before they are forever lost: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/root-nougat-32-3-a-2-33-e6833-e6853-e6883-1apr2017.3437902/
