I flashed a Xperia Z3 stock rom with root and recovery. I do not want root or recovery anymore, if I flashed the latest 6.0.1 ftf file using flashtool, would root and recovery go away from my phone?
Thank You
Yes

Hello, i have a problem with installing .182 update for my M2 D2303. My M2 have brand (i finally got update today), root and blocked bootloader. I tried flashing zip in flash tool, but it just normally rebooted, and nothing changed. Is there any way to update it?
Updates won't work on rooted or bootloader unlocked devices. Flash ftf via flashtool or a pre-rooted zip via recovery
I am using unlock bootloader Xperia Z3 right now, having rooted custom rom and recovery. Currently I need to have my device become non-rooted for testing applications. I can flash FTF but my device will lost recovery and it would be tedious to flash recovery and rom again.
I tried to find any non-root rom but can't find yet. Or do I need to flash FTF to have non-root rom?

If you are not rooted you are stuck with official stock roms only. Just flash a FTF.
However, this will not lock your bootloader, you will have to restore your TA partition to do this or use flashtool.
I'm using a Z3 Dual (D6633)
I saw this while im surfing in xda http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/general/recovery-root-mm-575-291-lb-t3435214
But i need to know this...
Im in .291 build right now. But this post tells "if you are on .291 flash .575 kernel". Is that ok? Flashing a different build number kernal ? will it work or will it ruin my phone?
Quite Easy, just follow these steps and download some files;
1. Download D6633_23.0.F.1.74 Kitkat firmware and flash via flashtool,
2. Then download GIEFROOT ROOT and root Kitkat with GIEFROOT,
3. Download XZ DUAL RECOVERY for Z3, and Install recovery via PC,
4. After installing recovery, download flashable .291 MM Update and flash it through recovery!!!
5. Hurrah!!! Enjoy the newly rooted device!!!
*Search on XDA for necessary file or, ask me.
I think flasing prerooted rom is more easy.
Well, i've flashed an aosp 7.1.1 firmware to my z3 UB but the battery drains fast and the camera is too dark, so, i want to return to 6.0.1 sony stock rom but i flashed 6.0.1 kernel (fastboot) and flashed the rom (recovery) and bootloop occurs after that.
Any suggestion? help
You must flash stock firmware with flashtool
I have the same problem, but i fix it:
1. You need to flash some android 7.x.x non-aosp(lineageos, etc) rom.
2. Then flash nailyk's recovery - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767124626 (ONLY WITH FASTBOOT,NO ZIP)
3. Then from this recovery wipe data cache and dalvik.
4 Then try flahs .ftf with flashtool.
If all this do not work you need to download and install official flashtool EMMA form Sony - http://developer.sonymobile.com/open-devices/flash-tool/how-to-download-and-install-the-flash-tool/ and then flash with last ftf in this programm. After flashing in EMMA you'l be able to flash .ftf in Flashtool... Please say thanks if i help u)))

I used FlashTool from PixN Rom 7.1.1 , to get stock rom. Worked.
I flashed the 7.1.1 AOSP, had no battery drain or any other problems/bugs. Was a good rom. But decided to go back to stock 5.1.1, mostly because of Sony DRM keys. Unlocked my bootloader but forgot to backup the keys. Good thing is that there is a fix for that, if you didnt back them up. Only on stock Sony firmware you can get them back.
The easiest way to fix the dark camera issue and the Sony special "things", you need to be on stock and restore DRm keys or flash the DRM fix.
Use flashtool to flash stock ftf, than just flash recovery via fastboot and download any rom you want to flash after that.
I recommend flashing stock 5.1.1 than custom 5.1.1 or MM.
Dont forget flashing SuperSU
Hope this helped you. If you need recovery img i can upload it for you.
hello, im wrongly flash file(kernel?), and now my phone shows as e6653 at flashtool..
phone condition:
1.can boot to twrp,flash,adb mode
2.wont load custom rom(stuck at rom logo)
had tried :
1. companion, missingphoneinfo error
2. flash stock so-01h, this bundle not for your phone, also error with e6653 firmware
3. extract kernel from so-01h firmware, but flash error
dtb not found
please,any solution guys?
no one at here have setool box
:crying:
Get Flashtool 0.9.22.2
Download So-01H FTF available on experifirm
Flash the FTF
TWRP and root will be gone but you will have a working phone wit stock MM
I tried this and worked. Nothing else worked for me. No custom roms or Nougat ftf from anywhere.
If you found any way to install custom roms please let me know too.
Thanks
