How long could it take for the OTA update to appear?
I have a locked bootloader and the rooted 4.3 ROM. Is there a way to install this ROM and keep root?

Anything from hours to eternity... So far the update is available via PCC or SUS only, nobody knows if there will ever be an OTA.

I don't think so.
Can't wait, flashed the update manually
@ponchofiesta Doomlord has already updated his root method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2620794 So you can re-root
Well, I unlocked the bootloader now, flashed this ROM and rooted it.
My battery life is now really bad but I think it will normalize over the next days... I hope so.
And: Is it not possible anymore to add lock screen widgets?
Question; is it natural that a generated FTF-file based on a generic NO (Norwegian) unbranded phone differs in size from the one posted by the TS?
Tried to make an FTF myself, but I see know that the file Flashtool generated is ~986MB, so ~30MB smaller than the one posted above.
Is it possible to get the original video/audio/media files from this firmware to download?

It is. Look here.
Actually these are the stock files from JB, I don't know if handsets delivered with Kitkat would have other demo content (if Sony would ever ship with KK at all)

Is there any flashable zip version available?
Hallo, Need Help!
how do I extract the files!
Sent from my D5503 using xda app-developers app
Download them all into the same folder, unpack the first one with 7-zip - the extraction will automatically extract the contents from all three archive files. Output should be a single .ftf file.
As of today this version is outdated, the new version is 14.3.A.0.757 and can be found here

Is there any way to update my rooted .253 from [nut] with this without loosing root?
Or should I just flash kernel, baseband and fota to get the right system?

At last! A .253 which contains the Sony Account Manager.
I took advantage of the Xperia Privilege offer and couldn't watch any of the movies I purchased on any of the previous .253 releases.
After flashing this firmware with Flashtool, can I use PC Companion for new updates, for example. 4.2.2? And, will i get my updates whenever the region the FTF is from gets them?

Can I go back to my original firmware? (Locked Bootloader/No Root)
And, is it better to use Flashtool v0.9.10.2 beta6 or beta4 version for flashing?

You can do it by yourself, using this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183077
But I saw, that the baseband version is the same as in [nuts] rooted .zip, so I don`t know if it`s really needed to update with this one.
Problem extracting
Hi I keep getting this error when trying to extract these files
CRC failed in 'C6603_10.1.1.A.1.253_Generic [email protected] File is broken
I've downloaded twice, using 7zip to extract.
Any Help?

Did you download both parts and put them in the same folder?
Can you check if their file sizes (in bytes) and/or MD5 sums match with the values on the download page?

No, that shouldn't matter. It's strange, because over 100 people have already downloaded these files. I'm currently downloading them myself to check.

First I had a corrupted download with Mozilla Firefox (MD5 did not match).
Then I downloaded again with Internet Explorer, after which the MD5s matched and the FTF extracted fine, both with WinRAR and 7-Zip.
Re-downlodad and extracted on my internal drive, all seems well. Thanks for checking.

Hi,
I installed this when it got available: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2279661
But I want the FW from the german region and still maintain my root access.
So what do I need to exclude in Flashtool ?

I think you'll first have to flash 10.1.A.1.434 Generic DE, root it and then perhaps you can do an OTA update to 10.1.1.A.1.253 (if available) and retain root.
This is my first contribution as an FTF file.

You should only exclude any *.ta files from the package. I think loader.sin should have been included.

Loader.sin is the same in all firmware customizations. Here is the current one: https://www.dropbox.com/s/z7nykfypuw2kss1/loader.sin
FTF files are just ZIP files, so you can open them in any file archiver (like WinRAR, 7-Zip, etc.) and add this file.
Otherwise you would need to follow part B of this guide to download the firmware again: [GUIDE] Download ANY firmware customization from Sony & create an FTF with Flashtool

Hi!
My flashmode is not working properly, could you please make a stock boot.img kernel?
Just the stock kernel, no mods.
Then I could flash kernel in fastboot.
Thanks for your great work!
Thanks,
How did you made the rom and stripped ftf from an full ftf file? I am waiting for NUT to update his DIY guide for 4.4 so I can use my own ftf file to make a rom, but maybe there already is a way to do that?
Does it work with Locked Bootloader?
I am currently on iHacker's rom and flashed with his recommended stripped kernel (should be 4.3's kernel)
I already have TWRP installed, can I just flash your ROM and use Flashtool to flash your stripped kernel?
Will that affects future downgrading?
Thanks for your work:good::good::good:

Yes, it will work on locked bootloader as its based on stock firmware so has stock kernel
Do I have to have a rooted device. Because I'm from the UK, and really eager to try out the kitkat. However, I'm not sure if it'll be safe.

Unless you install the recovery on 534 FW

After using this ROM for 20h there was only one call notification that was routed via the earpiece. So it is not bad, but not great. :/

Out of interest, what is the customization version as stated in your service menu with this FTF?
When I flashed my own self-created FTF with my UK phone I noticed that with 757 my Customization had changed to be the same as on the "Nordic" thread, as I described and uploaded my FTF there:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2711918&page=2
(though, that could also have been something to do with me not excluding the TA files)
The customization number of this firmware is 1279-4727, so it's good.
Darkimmortal's '14.3.A.0.681 Generic UK' also has nordic customization number. Pretty weird, maybe Sony screwed something up

Could have even been something to do with creating an FTF from PC Companion when you have an unlocked bootloader? (you get an error message meaning that you can't flash with PC Companion, but can still extract the downloaded files to create the FTF) Sony's software team is in Sweden so Nordic is probably the default. I had just unlocked my bootloader before creating my FTF, and I know Darkimmortal had stated he had done the same.
Or maybe something to do with messing around with those DoCoMo firmwares (with their TA modifications) that Darkimmortal had also posted? (as I had done too)
Anyway, it makes absolutely no difference, and is probably better to be on a Nordic firmware customisation as will probably receive faster updates.

My bootloader is still locked - I didn't get any error message, I extracted the files as normal to create the FTF.

Do you know where to find the version of this FTF for the SGP512 (Wifi only + 32GB)?
No idea.
How?

Could you please tell how did you make it? I have SGP511 with currently installed stock 17.1.A.2.36 but no matter what I try with PC Companion it downloads me 17.1.1.A.0.402 files even in repair mode
I downloaded the firmware before the .402 was available for me. That's all.

Lucky you. I've bought Z2 couple of days ago, so .402 was already rolled out on the Sony servers.
Well.., will look for alternative approaches how to dump my stock .36 version.

The reason why is because the update hasn't been rolled out in your country yet. When a update is don't it takes a couple of weeks or even months to be worldwide

Did you install the drivers that come with flash tool? there's a drivers folder inside the flash tool and there is the installation file for the drivers... install the flash mode drivers, the fastboot drivers and the Z2 tablet drivers

Hi!
Is there any option to download them directly from the programme, or do I have to look for the drivers on the internet?
One last thing, What Emma is? because I downloaded thinking it was the next flashtool for the newest xperia devices...
thanks!

The drivers are within the flash tool zip, extract the package and inside you will find a drivers subfolder
I flashed to this .ftf from 23.0.1.A.4.30 and my device will not turn on. Nor will it give vibration feedback when attempting to turn on. I tried volume down/power button. I tried the little red button next to sim card slot. Not sure what to do at this point...
I guess it decided to turn on... nevermind
Hello, does anyone have a link to the ftf for SGP512 (UK region). My tablet is running 4.4.4 and I want to downgrade to 4.4.2 so I can root
EDIT, does not matter, just used the Nordic firmware to downgrade, rooted, then upgraded with modified UK firmware that was pre-rooted
