Hey!
First of all I hope this is the correct section for this problem.
I looked everywhere, on xda, on other forums, and no luck, so I decided to ask my questions directly.
Well, it's like this. I have a XPERIA Z3 which is branded with T-Mobile. It has T-Mobile applications/bloatware, and T-Mobile logo on boot. My question is, can I remove the applications, and the boot logo without rooting?
Or can I download an unbranded stock ROM (or firmware, not sure if it's the same thing) for Z3, and that way remove the T-Mobile logo and applcations? Will that work?
If someone knows, please tell me where to download the stock ROM/firmware.
I hope you understand where I'm going.
Thanks.

Hey Hussain. Thanks for your reply. I am actually a newbie so I don't really understand what you mean by that. :/
Is that an application or something? If it is, what should I do after installing?
Thanks.
Bumping this, maybe someone can help me.

Just flash another FTF. Head over to the Z3 general section to see any of the threads on flashing FTF files.
You need flashtool (Download it from flashtool.net) then you can download a FTF and flash it.

Firstly, do not PM me for any questions !
Ask in the forum here. You may mention me and I will get back to you !
About your query, the firmware you mentioned has only camera quality issues ! There aren't any bugs to my knowledge !
If any user thinks there is something to add/ remove, kindly do correct me!
About how to roll back, you will need flashtool and FTF file of xperia to flash your phone with older version/ newer depending on your choice!
The details are available in general section !
If you are still confused, quote me back !

Can you elaborate!What exactly are you doing and how are you doing?
My guess is you are using OTA for updates!
Use PC companion to update to the .14 version! OTA failed for me too
Good luck
bicked phone
I just rooted my phone and I looked at some comments about people bricking their phones. I know what a bricked phone is, but I don't know why it cant be fixed. If it's a software error, shouldn't people with experience in that field be able to fix that easy? I'm just curious.

Well, I have been using Sony Xperia since 2011 and I have been flashing ROMs, modding, experimenting a lot with them, I never have managed to hard brick any of my phone !
It is always recoverable ! These users might be new to it !
It is only care to be taken to flash kernels,ROMs,mods which are meant for your device model only! Failure to take caution in this regard might result in hard brick!
Good luck.

Thank you
PS: since i cannot post the link in the thread as a new user i can pm someone who is willing to help me. Thank you

I found links to FTF ROMs for your device in the [ROM] Official Live_With_Walkman WT19i_4.1.B.0.587_Generic.ftf (Stock) thread, and in the [ICS] Generic WT19i/WT19a 4.1.B.0.431 FTF thread.
Those users/posts/links seem to be reliable IMO.
To check if a ROM file was changed, you need the original file too ... and then compare the md5sum of both files, if they are exactly the same.
If you have further issues or questions, please better ask in the Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, Active, Ray, Live with Walkman Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin forum.
There you will get (hopefully) quick and proper help :fingers-crossed:
Hello,
After the my moto "forced" me to update with the spamm, i updated it yesterday, but somehing must have failed, since my Moto doesnt start anymore.
when i start it goes till the screen where it says "ur device is unlocked" and its stuck there.
i tryed to go in Recovery mode, cleared cache and user data+settings. that didnt work.
what options are left for me? would an update help? if yes, how do i know which update i pick?
kind regards

The easiest method is to first root your device and then flashing a custom rom onto your device all the information will be available for you in your device verified section and the other way is to flash stock rom

Sorry, I thought your boot loader is already unlocked. This is one the basic requirements before you may be able to install both any custom recovery and any custom rom. There is also the fact being on the latest ASUS stock rom "Jelly Been".
That means you have to do your home work first before you do anything what can brick your tablet. How to do? you will find easily in the forum.

Does anyone know any sources for sony FTF files for the F8331? I have tried to download the files with xperifirm and make an FTF with flashtool but this doesn't work for me and I'm stuck with a paperweight of a phone till I can get an FTF for the device, if anyone can help me out here that'd be brilliant, many thanks for taking the time to read this.
