no, it gave me no messages at all, just didn't work.
I think the problem was with the 09184 version, hours after I downloaded and installed it (which didn't work) they updated it to 09185 which worked with me after installation.
So, it's working now.

Don't forget that the Sony flashtool only works for unlocked bootloader.
If you just want to update using ftf, sony's flashtool won't work. It's just a different tool. If you want to update using ftf use the flashtool from http://flashtool.net like @gregbradley said.

I am having a problem flashing KitKat v. F.1.74_CE
I had to downgrade to be able to root and the thread said that as long as my Z3 is the dual version, I would have to downgrade to F.1.74 to be able to root, so I downloaded it and used flashtool version 0 9 18 5 to flash. but while in the middle of the process (after deleting my phone data), the flashtool says "processing of system.sin finished with errors".
this is the error message
27/020/2015 13:20:04 - INFO - Flashing data
27/020/2015 13:20:26 - ERROR - Processing of system.sin finished with errors.

When you don't want to use any custom ROMs you often miss your Stock Android.
Here is the guide that will direct you How to go back to Stock Android in Sony Xperia E Single.
I've made My Stock Android Firmware file .FTF
First of all get it from the link shown below:
Mediafire Link : http://www.mediafire.com/download/c4an99t62k6krmj/Sony+Xperia+E_11.3.A.2.23_Generic.ftf
I have made Sony Xperia E Single C1504 Stock Firmware based on version 11.A.2.23
Which will not give any error while flashing.
It will give a smooth flashing.
Now, download Flashtool for Sony by @Androxyde in case you don't have !
Link : http://www.flashtool.net
Install Fastboot Drivers and Flashmode drivers.
Steps :
1. Put downloaded .FTF file into this directory
C:\Flashtool\firmwares
2. Now open Flashtool and Put your phone into Flashmode.
3. Click on the lightening icon in the upper left side first.
4. Select Flashmode and select firmware you want to flash incase you haven't put .FTF file in the Flashtool firmwares directory you can still browse it and select it from the dirctory which contains that file.
5. Check
- Cache
- Data
- No final verification
6. Now click Flash.
7. Get yourself some coffee or beer and wait.
8. Voila ! Now you have your Sony Xperia E Single back into it's Original Stock Android.
Cheers... !
Hello,
Looks great! But what apps are pre-installed? Because I'm rooted, and I have deleted almost every system app, so yeah... Still good out there for the people who don't want/can root their phone. Thank you in advance.
Have a nice day

This firmware contains the all preinstalled apps which comes in the Original Stock JellyBean out of the box. And I have tweaked this firmware that way that Flashtool will probably not show any error while flashing. And the whole process will go smoothly. So basically this is the same firmware with the latest version. Cheers.

No flash counter for locked bootloader.
You must flash the stock ftf [firmware] for your device.

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.

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.

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.

That's EMMA Sony's own software tool for unlocked bootloaders not flashtool that's referred to in here. Your friend has flashed single sim firmware onto a dual sim device hence the message on the screen.
Use flashtool to flash the correct dual sim firmware wipe user data ect when flashing and it'll be good as new.

Hello, I just got my Xperia XZ F8332 CDA 1305-4972 R1D Singtel SG and I tried to flash a firmware from another region to get less bloatware and faster updates. I used flashtool and the process failed (flashing system.sin finished with errors) and the device was bricked after that. I used Xperia Companion's software repair tool and the device is working with its original firmware. I would like to know how to solve the system.sin flashing issue in order to install another firmware on my device. Thanks for your help.
I usually have this.
Make sure the firmware downloaded fully, and if it comes up just retry (Or different firmware)
Make sure you have all the drivers installed

Seems like something wrong with Flashtool or the FTF. Are you using the latest version of the Flashtool? Make sure to run as administrator (just in case), also try with different FTF. It would be better for you to make your own FTF using the XperiFirm.
