After flashing phone witch generic no branded firmwere 4.4.4 phone doesn't finds update. What do I need to do?
Try to download the original firmware for your phone using the Xperia Firmware Downloader:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro...perifirm-xperia-firmware-downloader-t2834142/
Just select your phone model number and the brand, then click in the right side the firmware version.
Later use flashtools to pack the firmware:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/development/noobs-guide-create-stock-firmware-ftf-t2188129
(Go to step 3)
And flash the new ftf file with flashtool too.
Sometimes the best way is to download the firmwares manually from the forum and flash it, because some brands don't give the latest firmware to our phones (like mine). With this way, you will have the latest firmware, rooted and with dual recovery just flashing the zip file, but first you have to prepare your phone:
Use this guide to flash the latest rootable firmware, root that firmware and install the recovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/general/guide-rootrecovery-how-to-root-install-t3017056
then go to development section and download the latest firmware for your phone. Download a preroorted with recovery version to allow the manually updates later:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/development/
Even you can use some custom Roms like Existenz.
Greetings and sorry for my english.
Hi,
I have flashed pre-rooted with dualrecovery in my phone (Locked BL, though), and now a need to send it back for warranty, due to a screen flickering when using maximum brightness.
Is there a thread with back-to-stock instructions to the Z3, and specially for the 6633 model? or all I need to do is flash a stock firmware?
Is there any sort of eFuse or flash counter (as in Samsung phones) that i should worry about?
Phone details:
Z3 Dual 6633, Unbranded, Brazilian.
Locked BL
flashed Pre-rooted stock image, with dualrecovery
Just simply download the latest firmware from Xperifirm, After this use Flashtool to create the ftf file, and flash this on your device
A tutorial can be found below on how to make a ftf + flash it:
Here are two guides:
Guide 1
Guide 2
Best of luck and Happy Flashing!
Hello Everyone. I have a device that came with a Hong Kong FW. (F8332 1305-2218)
I'd like to have an MM FTF as a backup incase I want to downgrade in the future.
I know that flashing FTF files for other regions/countries is possible, so any MM FTF is okay but I would prefer having the FW with most features and least bloat-ware.
Is there any source other than xpericheck?
(PS. I haven't unlocked my device yet)

Thanks.
Xperifirm only shows the latest N firmware. I am now downloading it, but i need MM.
What do you mean by "create ftf (flashtool)" ? Can flashtool extract ftf from phone?

Hello, i tried to create my own flashable ftf with Flashtool and Xperifirm today and failed 3 times in a row.
Does anyone have a link to a flashable ftf with the latest update and the least bloatware that you mind sharing?
You can find it linked from here https://xpericheck.com/device/F8331
Called "Customized NOBA". .58 not released yet for Nordics so it's .24.
I'm also interested in the latest "Customized NOBA" .58 FTF
According to Xperiacheck it was released a few days ago. However no link for FTF yet.
How can I get a FTF for this firmware? Can I make it myself?
Yes, use Flashtool to download and create FTF.
Latest firmware (41.3.A.2.58 NOBA region) is now available from https://xpericheck.com/device/F8331
I forgot all the process of upgrading to the latest Xperia firmware. I have downloaded the latest firmware but got no idea which flashing tool and how to use it to flash.
kindly guide me.:fingers-crossed::good:
Hi, NewFlasher.
The latest .25 flashtool supports H32xx.
Download matching ROM with included xperifirm
