I have Xperia M2 dual D2302

in another way
can i flash D2305 & D2303 stuff on my D2302 ???
note : D2305 & D2302 has the same cpu chipset and i am using only one SIM card

The phone won't let you. There is a thread in general section that shows you what happens.

Wierdly i had a problem where my M2 was having a freeze issue after update through sony where it would crash and then boot up with an error and a non functioning touchscreen. every boot up did this. I plugged into the computer and backed up the phone with the sony software and then did a recovery on the phone. Once the phone was back to zero, I tried to restore the backup. It would only let me restore music and photos saying that I was flashing a D2306 backup to a D2303 phone. Sony had repaired my phone with D2303 software!!! I did another restore on the phone and all back to normal so I think there might be some compatiility between 2303 and 2306 but basebands may cause problems. however, try not to risk it anyway!

Xperia E (Single Sim)

Hi All,
I have been a samsung user from the last 2 years and quiet familiar with rooting, custom Roms and flashing, recently i got a samsung xperia E (Single Sim) and using the official sony boot unlocking method tried unlocking but sadly after the whole process went smooth i ended up in boot loops.
Can anybody help me as to how do i review the phone back or go back to stock rom again? Unlike samsung where we only have Odin and Sammobile for all firmware in sony there are so many different version of flashtools floating around and i can't seem to find a stock Xperia E firmware.
Can anybody be kind and post links to the tools required for flashing and the site where i can get a custom rom if any or stock roms to get the phone working back.
You can try sony emma. Its still beta, but some people say xperia e firmware is in there. You did unlock bootloader from sony, so it should return the phone to unrooted, but unlocked phone. As for flashtool ftf, if you can remember what version it was, you can try search google. Most important, charge the battery by other way (another phone, clip-based battery charger)
Sony Xperia Tipo ST21i
Hello,
Did you get your phone working again? If yes how did you do so? I wondering this because i have the same problem as you and I installed the firefox via emma but there was no original update available.

I've been a Samsung user the last years too, and i just got my brand new Xperia E. I was following Sony's guide on how to unlock the bootloader, and I had the same problem you are talking about. I found out, after unlocking the bootloader you have to flash a ftf file (at least, that has solved the problem in my case).
I turned it off by taking away the battery (I had to) and then used flashtool (google it) for flashing the new ftf file. I followed Vasudev99 's tutorial (thanks, by the way). I'll give you the link, in which you can find all files you need and all steps you have to follow.

[Help] Wifi issue with M2 D2303 latest firmware!

Hello People
I recently got the latest firmware for my D2303 (18.3.1.C.1.13) with an unlocked bootloader. However sometimes I can not switch off WIFI and displays my network asking for my network key of it says failed to connect to network. Although the only way I can regain the functionality of my WIFI is to reboot or toggle airplane mode. When I toggle airplane mode is successfully turns WIFI off and once I switch it on it remembers my network key and successfully connects.
Now what I have done to troubleshoot this problem?
1st reflased the firmware with flash tool
2nd wipe Data/Cache
Any help would be grateful!

You didn't have to use flashtool. Use PC Companion. Sony's tool does the update for you.

Ok, I know, but my purpose was to change form Customized-ES to Custominzed-IT.
Once done that I would have downgraded my phone to Kitkat in order to root it.
Some minutes ago I managed to run 23.4.A.1.232 on my D6603 but I have some compatibility issues, preinstalled GAPPS don't run and the screen back illumination never turn off. I really don't know whats going on on that phone...
Now I'm using sony companion tool to repair the phone, if all goes right and I'm not going back to Customised-ES later I'll try to root it.
Basically all of this was a trial to understand if a was able to root it.

Tried installing CyanogenMod, didn't go to plan....

Hi all,
Im brand new to Android and this forum so go steady....
I have an xperia M2 running 5.1.1 Lollipop and I successfully manged to root it. I then tried to install the CyanogenMod CM 12.1 using their official website.
Download here download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=nicki
Tutorial here wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_nicki
I cant post the actual links because im still a noob.....
My bootloader was already unlocked so I skipped the first step and went straight Installing CyanogenMod. After completing step 4 and restarting the phone the screen went black, I knew the phone was on because of the vibration when it turns on. I have since managed to flash a stock ftf file and wipe the phone which has put it back factory.
So my question is, what did I do wrong? Wrong file? Wrong input on Windows CMD?
The end goal was to install the Flux CM 12.1 Theme but obviously I didn't get that far, any help would be great, thanks.
I have locked bootloader so i don't know for sure
you need to update your bootloader via Emma or flash ftf that @linuxct have made than you can flash CM
Good Luck!

I'd already done that, i followed a guide on here that unlocked the bootloader then i followed another guide to root the phone. All that went perfect, its the above that gave me the problem.
it's not a nikki device (isn't the original m called nikki)it's called Eagle the m2 is and I don't think there is a official build for Eagle m2 there are unofficial builds available on here,Facebook and g+ Although my bootloader is still locked aswell I'd say your trying to flash the totally wrong software for your phone and should do some more Reading before you turn your m2 into a paperweight.

Ah of course, Eagle...that makes sense! Thanks....i'll do some more 'reading' :good:

Help me please! Sony Xperia XZ SO-01j

Hello XDA Dev community!
I'm new and I have heard good reviews about this site. I hope you could help me with my problem. I managed to buy an Xperia XZ So-01J model locked to NTT Docomo then got it unlocked thru a code. I need to flash it to a generic stock rom but I keep getting the partition.sin error and soft bricking my device in the process. If I tick partition.sin in the "exclude" category, a new error comes up again from the .sin files. Am I missing something here? I'm new to the whole Xperia game but I got a little knowledge about it epecially with Flashtool. I used to be a Samsung user and have never encountered something like this flashing roms using odin and a custom recovery.

Dear are you using latest xperia flashtool which use fsc script. I think you are using old flashtool. Also check drivers are cirrectly installed. Signature verification should be off in window.

Welcome dear.
Use 0.9.23.2 if possible. Put off the signature verification in window. Turn off antivirus. Dont plug any other device in usb port.
Installed drivers from driver folder of flashtool.

If it's f8331 then just install boot image from androplus through fastboot and then install recovery through fastboot and install custom rom.
Responses are still very much appreciated. I still have hope the SO-01J can be flashed with a generic ROM.

Hi!
I am also experiencing the same situation. Who can help me?
Who can help me?
:crying: I m haven the same condition with you. Who can help me? Asking for help.i used all the flashtool,but it still dont ok.
I have the same condition with you.I do it yesterday.you should use 0.9.23.2.Flashtool flash so 01j .ftf. Yesterday i went to japanese NTT'S Home net to download it.
Did you flash the international ROM? Or still use Docomo 6.0.1?
same problem here , i try to flash 41.3.A.2.24 AU on my Sony Xperia XZ SO-01J but it always appear error at all sin files start from partition.sin
anyone have solve this problem?
AFAIK you cannot flash that file to that device.
you can't flash other rom into this phone, it only accept docomo rom. the bootloader is locked and it's not unlockable (as far as I know unless docomo allows it or someone managed to find a way). so I did the next best thing, by removing some of the docomo apps through adb. I also removed some Sony apps like Xperia Tips and Whats New and a few others (facebook etc). battery life has been better since less things running in the background now, free RAM is around 1gb though I don't play games at all.
