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

Hey all,
Does anybody have a tft for a UK generic (UNITED KINGDOM) as the only ones on here are mislabelled Ukraine files (Should say UA not UK)
There is an guide available for creating an ftf file yourself. It can be found here
You can also look for the World A (C2104) or Generic World (C2105) which is the international version.
A list of ftf files can be found here
And last, you can also use my C2105 UK ftf file in my signature, but its 15.3.A.0.26 and not 15.3.A.1.14

The guide to pull the relevant firmware from sony itself isn't working. Rooting and changing the build prop items is fine, but the update tool bounces entering flash mode with 'there is an issue with your network connection' which there isn't.
There is no UK version in that thread.
And i have no idea what version yours is

Ok I managed to get the build prop method to work today. No idea why it was failing yesterday. Either the servers were do or I did use a different root tool today. I will upload it shortly since it isn't on here.
Hi,
As far as I am aware there is no UK generic firmware here (there are Ukraine and USA etc...) but you can change your build prop values so that you get UK generic updates (that is what I have done). The latest generic firmware (.14) is not available in the UK yet (still have to wait ). When I get the update I will try and make a ftf.
Sony has released the 18.3.C.0.39 Firmware for Xperia M2 D2303, I have no changelog, but here is the FTF link to the generic malaysian version. Please mirror it if you can.

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.

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.
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.

HI,
Ive done a search and cant find many specifics.
I'm looking for stock firmware for three UK for a E6633. I've downloaded flashtool and read that it can automatically download for you but I cant figure out how. Also I have got XperiFirm and there isn't any three firmware for E6633 although there is for the E6653.
Can anyone help me where to get the current three firmware for E6633 or can i flash the E6653?
Currently have generic E6633 firmware 32.3.A.0.376 but would like network specific.
Phone is currently unrooted and locked bootloader.
