Requesting details on flashing nougat TFT on my Xperia Z5. - General Questions and Answers

Dear XDA users,
I want to instal a nougat TFT on my Sony Xperia Z5, ofcourse I've read much of the guides here on the forum, though almost every other guide seems to be a little different than the rest...
Therefore I would like somebody to guide me through flashing the firmware. I downloaded Sony Flashtool, and the nougat TFT, (the latter I downloaded from this thread, so you know what file I'm working with: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z5/general/z5-e6653-32-3-0-376-update-rolling-t3553418 Here's a few things I would already like to know:
- Do I tick the box 'kernel' in the 'exclude' list, or no?
- I do have to tick all the boxes in the 'wipe' section, correct?
- Are there any settings I need to change from how I have them in this image?

- And ofcourse is there anything else I need to do or not do at all? I just really want to avoid bricking my device.
BTW, my bootloader is unlocked and I have TWRP custom recovery, and currently do not have root, but could root if need be.
Thanks in advance, Muchwowww

Thanks a lot for all the detailed replies, I winged it and it worked so I'm now rolling with Nougat, Toblerone ain't got **** on mejh.

question about the firedroid x10 mini pro

sorry for the post here. but i cant post at the development area. cuz im new. but after trying a few of x10 mini pro roms. i find the firedroid is the suitable for me. but there's a catch. my keyboard light wont light at all. i followed all the instruction from the developers, others forumers and guide. but still no help for me.
21.6.12
found the solution. thx for x10man for saying the info on the dev forum.
how to repair the keyboard light.
download this file if you want to repair the rom with the keyboard light not working and just drag and drop in in your downloaded rom.
*caution- i've tried mine and it works. never tried on other version of rom other then the firedroid. and i've never tried by updating it.
just drag and drop in the custom rom zip.

**ps- i used cyanogenmod 7 and x10 mini pro. dont try this using other cynogen and phone model. i dont want to be held responsible. but try if you dare. that's the risk of using a custom rom.

It means your device cannot be rooted by this app. You have to go the official way

I know that....but what's the official way?

Rooting
First of all there will never be a official way for rooting and the word official from the above thread means find your device on the forum and search for the post about how to root.
Risk factor remains but if instructions are followed properly there will be no problems
Rooting without computer is not supported by all devices. It depends on procedures available to root the device you are using.
Well starting 3 threads for a simple question isn't gonna get you anywhere. Seriously JUST READ more before spamming this section.
Anyway I already replied to your question in your other thread.

I don't know how to do the above but I can say unlocking this version alone
won't make you happy, even if it is unlocked you can't update it without a Docomo sim,
so flashing will be critical.
Great phone though, once you learn how to get rid of the animated goat character walking
around on the home screen.

But the Seller tell me, it is possible to update with OTA.
I am still waiting the Android 5 update... T_T
Or just kill NFC, use the global ROM better ?
Hard to decide ...

Confusion regarding firmware model.

Hello there guys. First of all thanks for this wonderful website/forums. I've used rooting tutorials for my phone in the past here and also regarding some bugs that I had on my phone. Thanks!
Anyways now onto my confusion regarding my Android TV Box. I'm trying to understand what is the exact CPU model number of my Android TV Box as I need to flash the stock firmware.
In order to do that I need to know correct CPU model number or else facing the risk of bricking my device.
I used the app droidinfo and others, but I keep running into a confusing. On the device tab under 'Model' info it mentions the CPU firmware as 'rk3318_box'. While under the build fingerprint it shows 'rk3328_box'.
Even on the device factory reset boot menu it shows rk3328_box. So I'm stuck with confusion whether it is a Rockchip RK3318 CPU or RK3328.
The manufacture website says RK3318 but then this device info apps has thrown me into uncertainity. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
