(Help)Any tutorial how to downgrade nougat to marshmallow? - Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers

Can i downgrade my xperia xz from nougat to marshmallow? Any tutorial?

yes
use flashtool
search for marshmallow ftf in this forum

i tried it before but i failed to flash it.. i downloaded an indian ftf because its the only 6.0 ftf i found on the internet.. i dunno maybe i just made mistake flashing it.. can u kindly give me the exact procedure how to use the flashtool.. tnx

Please follow this guide:
I can't downgrade before. Here's what I did:
Download latest FlashTool
Uninstall the current flashtool installed
Delete flashtool files on your local drive like C: or D: , etc
If you are using Windows, please navigate to the following path:
C:\Users\*username*\.flashtool
Delete the .flashtool folder
Reinstall the Flashtool and the patch (jar file)
Download MM from Xperifirm (the commercial firmware is still on MM)
Create the TFT file. As you create the TFT file, it will tell you that there's a Flash script for your device. Click Yes. Clicking no will need you to repeat from step 1
Once the TFT is created, flash it now
IF you encounter an error with the date, flash it again.

[Q] Where do I download stock (newest software) for Xperia Z3?

Hi
I just got confirmed by Sony customer service that after unlocking bootloader and rooting, you can still update your device with flash tool. But is their any website, like the one for Samsung, where you can find official and newest software updates and download them, so they're ready to be flashed to your device?
Thanks in advance

Out of curiosity, they're outdated stuck right?
I mean they're outdated and so. Aren't their an website with the newest possible updates?
I mean like the D6603 model, haven't been updated since september so any minor updates since are "lost" on the device, right?

I know that. I ask where do I download the latest version of the Xperia z3 software in the future.
Like if I unlock bootloader now, and Android L comes out tomorrow, I can't get it, cause I can't update with PC companion or OTA update. Neither can I flash it with Flashtool as I don't have the update. So back to the question. Where do I find new updates?

You cannot install the update with this after unlocking the bootloader but this is where you download the very latest files and then you can convert them to an FTF file and flash them with flashtool.

You have already been given the link to the FTF collection thread in an earlier post. That is where you get the latest FTF files.
Or do what I just said, use PCCompanion to download the update, convert it to FTF and flash with flashtool

Arh, I get it now. Thanks for your time and sorry for the inconvenience!
I will try search a lot more later!
Take my thanks!
What's about using XperiFirm with Flashtool? So u'r just up to date without having a look into forums etc.... That's my prefered way to stay up-to-date for all of my Z to Z3 phones.

+1!
I don't have branded version "WO" of L02 but according to MiceRus from 4pda.ru you can debrand L02 by changing "oeminfo".
Debrand function added on Multi-Tool.

With "Wo" Logo,it's H60-L02 China Unicom Custom Version,share the same code name with WCDMA Standard Version
It is said that user of custom device can try to flash EMUI2.3 B113 version(H60-L02 Standard - Chinese Version)to "turning“ the device to standard version.
FYI:
It seems that the OEMINFO partition has to match the firmware revision, at least the provided OEMINFO in the Multitool doesnt work here together with the 5.16.1 FW on L02.
From what I understood on 4PDA the same can happen with b307 vs. b310.
yes! i see multitool "debrand" option. it's worked. very very thanks.
Good for you .

To all who try this method could you please feedback on which ROM did you try it and if it worked or not?
Oeminfo file isn't included on FullROM updates or OTAs, unless it is a part of other img file.

Only L02 models have branded version.
Are you sure that "ADB shell" got root permissions?
Feedback from greek forums is that debrand working, thats really odd.
Did you try to do it manual and still didn't works?

Had to do it manually anyway (no windows), Strange that it works for some, because I tried yesterday and today again..
I dont think that I need to wipe the device after flashing, because thats the only step I did not try out...

i dodn't think that wipe will help.
btw did you try to reinstall full rom after debrand?
if you install it with local update you will not lost any data.
Did local update with both versions.
- Local Update with b310
- Dumped original OEMINFO
- Flashed modfied OEMINFO
- Rebooted (did only start into recovery)
Also tried 3btn upgrade after unsucessfull start. Could you post the md5sum of the image?

Use Flashtools to find the ROM that works for you then flash it in fast boot. Look through some tutorials on how to use it on YouTube
All you need are in XperiFirm, download your firmware you need, use FlashTool to create bundle then flash it in flashtool

Flashtool does it all for you, no need to use xperifirm independently been like this for a while now.

If this is a full firmware when you will extract it you will find a dload folder in this there will be update.app just copy dload folder to SD and start flashing with three buttons.
If this is a ota file you just need to put whole update.zip in dload folder and start flashing....

Do you know how we can convert the other flash files for the official flash tool to sp flash tools? If I had a scatter file I could use my device and upload the rom from the device to make a SP flash tool compatable image.

Yes it can be, if you can extract the .nb0 file then you can browse the firmware images according to the scatter files, but as i saw .nb0 file is not exctractable due to encryption, and OST tool can descypt it but its can only flash not extract
Why dont you flash through provided firmware
I might reverse engineere OST later if I have time.
Can you send me the scatter file?
Using mobile data atm so don't have enough data spare to download anything else.

Has anyone actually flashed this firmware? We've already had instances of people flashing a supposed custom rom and bricking their phones. I think care needs to be taken before trying this kind of stuff - especially when it comes to Nokia phones
