Hey everyone. i have a rooted sony xperia z3 d6603 16GB wtich i want back to stock.
i rooted with giefroot v3 and used dualrecovery and i have a locked bootloader. but now i need to send my device in for warrenty purposes and i need it 100% factory stock.
How do i do it all the guides was for those with unlocked bootloader mine is LOCKED.
ALSO i flashed a pre-rooted lollipop firmware witch broke dual recovery so i no longer have a recovery.
And is there a flash counter like on samsung knox? does the xperia z3 have a tamper flag? will i loose my TA partition?
Thx, hope im not sounding tooooo noobie

No flash counter for locked bootloader.
You must flash the stock ftf [firmware] for your device.
There is a tutorial here.

It must be done through computer.
Download Flashtool.
Follow tutorials on how to flash ftf's.
It is not that hard, you'll manage it.

Sure So you mean that you were not able to flash something in flashmode, right? You're flashing with Flashtool, or PCC?

:laugh::good: oh yes..
Sony maked it hard to root it..
The problem here isn't rooting the phone. Doomlord's tool works pretty well to root a stock .21 and .31 JB. The issue is CWM. Don't install it... There isn't yet a fully working version of CWM for our phone.
Actually there is but it is a matter of swapping kernels, what he meant was there is no permanent CWM for Xperia J but if you are not planning to flash ROMs download Flash Gordon App, Root Required

Download a Lollipop FTF file and flash it using Flashtool

Do i need root?
No not to use flashtool use on totally stock just make sure you don't include simlock and .ta parts of the ftf. Has your phone been rooted before or is the bootloader unlocked? Usually the only thing stopping a update from verifying.

Nope i don't have rooted my phone before..
Do i need to erase sim and try again?

Don't erase anything before you make a backup. Flashtool works on locked and unlocked bl so Google Flashtool, download 9.18.6 version, install drivers and PC Companion (if you haven't already), download ftf with XperiFirm (last button on right in Flashtool). When proces end flash ftf to your phone.
Good Luck!

You lose all files music etc. When you flash ftf it's good to wipe all data cache especially if you up/downgrading so your phone will be as new. First start may take little longer than usual.
Good Luck!

Make sure you don't include simlock.ta and the other .ta section of ftf and you should be fine

If you are running the Stock KitKat rom , Then you should be able to download it from "Update Manager" . If not , Download the latest FTF using flashtool / xperifirm.
Worked for me.
