Flashing Help - Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm on the latest 5.1.1 - 23.4.A.1.264 Firmware on my Z3 Phone, Locked Bootloader. I'm trying to flash but I keep getting "Processing of loader.sin finished with errors." could someone help?
I'm trying to install http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/general/sonys-android-concept-marshmallow-t3229030 as it says it works with Unlocked Bootloaders.
I've installed the drivers for Flashmode/Fastmode but still nothing. :c

Need help to restore my motog bootloader and stock rom

Hello there everyone.
I have a problem with my MotoG XT1032, I bought from Phones4U.
I unlocked the bootloader ages ago and tried to install custom roms, when that didn't work for me (my phone company didn't allow unlocked devices on their network) I went back to stock ROM.
I then updated my stock rom a few weeks ago to Android 4.4.2.
It seems to have messed up my phone. It tells me the bootloader is "UNLOCKED" status code 3, even though I tried the tool on here "Motorola moto g - relock, restore and more" to try to lock it. It flashed a US ROM, but I want the retail UK 4.3 ROM for my phone as mine is UK version.
I have had horrible problems trying to flash British retail firmware on my phone. Whenever I try to flash the stock firmware I get error messages:
"Preflash validation failed!" and "version downgraded for gpt", version downgraded for tz. etc. I have all the drivers installed and my phone is recognised in normal mode when connected and in fastboot mode by my pc.
I can only use the scripts to flash the US ROM, but the bootloader remains unlocked. I want to flash the stock UK firmware for 4.3 back to my phone and I want to relock the bootloader as if I had just bought the phone. I've tried numerous times to flash firmwares but none of them work except the US version. I cannot also relock my bootloader as I get an error message
"SST lock failure!".
Please any assistance is much appreciated, I am getting desperate. I want my phone restored to UK ROM and relocked bootloader.
Here is my OS and system specs and programs for you guys if you need this information:
OS Windows 8.1
Architecture: 32-bit OS
Programs: Motorola Device Manager
Google USB drivers
Fastboot and ADB installed
Phone recognised by both fastboot and PC.
ROM: US Retail 4.4.2 from the Moto G restore relock and more tool.
Phone model: Motorola Motog XT1032 UK version

KitKAt Firmware Brick

Hello guys well a friend of mine handed me his phone because it was having some problems ( he couldnt change the date and this bringed him all sorts of problems), so i performed a factory reset and it didnt help. After this i got a hold of the KitKAt firmware to re-flash it (it was already on 4.4.2 i believe or at least 4.2.2 ?? anyway im sure it was already on KitKat, the only version of KitKat i have been able to find is this one. ( http://www.grupoandroid.com/topic/110965-firmware-razr-hd-xt925-kit-kat-android-442/ ).
I tried with RSDLite first and it gave me back an error on boot.img so i tried the flash_all.bat that came with the download and i got the same error, something like failed to check Hab on boot.img , so i tried the Manual Fastboot method and to no avail. IT gives me preflash validation failed on both boot.img and recovery.img.
Im guessing this is the kind of error yo uget if your phone doenst have the boot loader unlocked and you want to go to a previous firmware, and well yeah.. i mesed up and didnt unlock the bootloader first so it is LOKCKED, but to my knowledge i should be able to flash the same version of the Firmware right? and if this isnt the KitKAt already on the phone where do i get it..
Im Stumped..
hopefuly one of you guys can help me.
thanks
For anyone interested, the problem was that i already had the 4.2.2 firmware on the device ( im not sure how they managed this).. then i tried to flash over it with the 4.2.2 i found there and i hadnt unlocked the bootloader and although to my knowledge this shouldnt be a problem well.. that hapenned.
So i went through the process of unlocking the bootloader via fastboot and the motrola unlock your bootloader site and it worked, i succesfully unlocked the bootloader and then the KitKat firmware flashed with no problems. the only problem peristent her ei sthat i cannot change the date.. aghh

Registration failed - 9860

Hi,
I have rooted my n9860 TGY , i have noticed that i am unable to do OTA , it keeps saying (registration failed) when i press manually update..
Is it related to root ?
I did install on Odin the latest firmware
Unlocking bootloader and then rooting will not work on OTA. Stock firmware can only be updated over OTA if bootloader is locked.
So you will have to manually flash your phone from now on.

That damn can't downgrade message!

I tried to downgrade my phone to earlier Samsung firmware, but the download failed with "pit_flash_binary unsupported version". Now I wonder - would I get out of trouble if I installed some custom bootloader, then restored Samsung bootloader, then uploaded older firmware? If yes - can I get a link to some instructions?
