Hi,
I've been looking throughout the forum but I couldn't find any way to get my phone (Xperia M2 D2306) back to a state where OTA updates are possible (if it is possible at all).
I flashed the unofficial CM 12.1 version posted here using TWRP, although it mostly works I couldn't use FM Radio and found it quite laggy, so I've decided to revert to the most recent stock version (an FTF file I found using XperiFirm).
My concern is:
Do I need just to wipe everything before using flashtool and also is there any intermediate step I'm missing?
If successful, does the phone allow OTA updates from there on or they'll always have to be applied from the PC?
Thanks.
Relock bootloader with ta keys for ota updates to work Otherwise flash ftf via flashtool
hi Everyone!
I have stock D6633 Dual sim run MM6.0.1 (LB). Could i use OneClickRoot to root it? thank you
i am a new sony fan
I don't think you can root your phone directly from marshmallow
You have to downgrade to an older firmware, root your phone and install recovery, then flash a pre-rooted marshmallow rom
you can follow this guide
