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.

For this yes, as you need recovery
Unless you install the recovery on 534 FW
However, you can flash a stock 4.4.2 FTF on flashtool without root

I was trying to install your CE1 version of KK but when it's installing in TWRP suddenly my phone woke up. I have tryed few times, but all time the same. I can't even flash ftf in Flashtool. I didn't wipe anything (i don't want to lose my saves from GTA ^^), I was installing it on already installed FR ver. What should i do?

can you please make another mirror, downloading from google drive is agonazingly slow, i've already tried the third time... it sais 10 hours...

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. :/

You need:
1. To downgrade firmware to .314 via flashtool and to root your tablet.
2. Install XZDualRecovery.
3. Install prerooted (.167) version via recovery (OP).

Thank you. I sat till 01:30 this morning to get my tablet back to workable state after trying to downgrade. In the process I lost some data.
The mistake I did was to flash your ftf file via flashtool after I did a OTA update to .167. From there things went south quickly. Now I'm back to .167 after flashing a generic .314 and doing an OTA.
Will start the process again to downgrade and then root and then install dual recovery.
Sorry for the stupid question. I'm from South Africa, is there a way I can get or make a flashable .167 for my region or doesn't it really matter using a RU version?

First off, i would like to say thank you for these FTF files
i flashed this FTF without a hitch, everything works as it should except my data connection. and for me, this is a deal breaker, i need the data connection (I'm currently with bell mobility)
now my question is...
can i take out the LTE bands from this 23.0.1.A.0.167 FTF and replace it with bell's (band4 1700MHz, band7 2600MHz)
sorry for this noob question, my other tab is the nexus 7... no FTF files to deal with.
firmware version
17.1.1.A.0.438 with a locked bootloader ( un-lockable )

Hi again. Managed to get the update done and now have. 167 installed with root. I'm having the same problem as blaze82 with regards to the LTE not working for me. I also need my LTE to work, so can this be fixed somehow?
An ex Asus transformer user, so the sony way of foing is also new to me.
Many thanks for files and help.

Just realized that there is no APN set for mobile Internet access. Added it and now my LTE is working.

Any flashable zip of new update .291?
Sent from Tapatalk Xperia Z3C

[Stock][PreRooted][D5503] 14.5.A.0.270 Customized CE1

ROM downloaded with XperiFirm and pre-rooted with PRFCreator.
CDA (customization version): 1280-7864
It will flash SuperSU and LockedDualRecovery (it will overwrite your current recovery).
You need to be on any rooted ROM already with custom recovery to flash a .zip file with this firmware!
You don't loose any data, you keep root, you update your firmware to the newest Lolipop build .270.

Just flashed.....Thanks Davka! :good:

Cant find details about .270 changelog, anyone knows?

Tnx guys !!
5.1.1 update seems is not that far away.
On my Nexus 7 2013 working perfect, final and polished version.
Hope same will be on a Z1 compact, .242 firmware is fine for me, except ocassional ram/redraw apps problems, typical for 5.0.2 android.

Can someone check please if there's an Hebrew keyboard?

Hi,
I searched for instructions flashing from .zip file but I couldn't find any. Could you please describe the steps?
Thanks and regards.

You can flash this only if you have Custom Recovery flashed in your phone. If you have then boot into it, choose Flash .ZIP file or similar feature and you flash it. You have to put the .zip file on the SD card before this step.
If you don't have Custom Recovery or don't know how to use it - this is not a thread for you, sorry.

Region
Now I have a doubt, if I flash this in Spain, would it work? Is Europe, but no central...

Does Xposed work fine with this update?

Hello , will we receive next update 14.5.A.0.283 ???? Or will we have to update through pc companion or so please ?????
Thanks

I will post .283 version when it will be available for Central Europe region. So far it's available for T-mobile branded regions only.

Hi,
Sorry if the question is silly but will I be able to update to official sony 5.1.1 after flashing this rom? Will I still have root after update?

The version of this PRF is 5.0.2, the 5.1.1 has not been released by Sony yet.

He meant if he will get the update notification once Sony releases 5.1.1 with this ROM installed. My thoughts are probably yes you will get notification since this is stock basically.

Then you should have no problems to write to external SD Card!

You need an rooted Device! Zip File should flashed about Recovery.
you could downgrade to a an older FW example to Droid 5.0.2 Build 23.1.A.1.28
(flash Ftf-File with Flashtool) and root your Device with Kingoroot or similar and install Recovery.
then you can flash the Zip from Op.

So as I understand it...
I should install official FW 23.1.A.1.28, which includes 5.0.2 I assume... root my device using KINGROOT and, later, install the ZIP in the first post of this thread in the recovery... that´s ok?????
23.1.A.1.28 should be installed using flashtool?? Is there any thread over this forum where I can download it?
I found this one:
== SGP611 (Wifi 16GB) ==
- 23.0.1.A.0.167: Xperia Tablet Z3 compact - SGP611 - FTF files
IS THAT OK?????
Thanks again in advance for your help

Yeah right, FW 23.1.A.1.28 or older (0.167) is ok und should be easier to root.
P.S. If I can find time for the day(s), I'm uploading the FW x.1.28 still (with root options) .

Update: Xperia Rom 23.4.A.1.264 & XZDualRecovery 2.8.23
Rom updated to latest Xperia Fw. - 23.4.A.1.264 only for SGP611!! :good:
- you can install dirty or clean (does not wipe user Data)!!
Don't forget.. do a Nandroid Backup before installing the Zip!
if you Install dirty:
- uninstall first Xposed Framework
- wipe cache & dalvik and install the Zip, enjoy :fingers-crossed:
You will find Download link & Changelog on Op.

Can you confirm that it will not work for SPG612 ? Looks like its the same .. or not ... This is always confuse.
For now, I am in .232 and need .264 on SPG612 (pre-rooted & recovery).
Tried to install OTA but, it restarted to the Android (open engine ..) and then, does nothing and continued to TWRP ... so, I restart to system and I see that update has not been applied.
What should I do ?
EDIT: Ok, I've tried to do the same as the author ... but .. maybe not enough for the update ?
So, I downloaded PRFCreator + last SuperSU + last DualRecovery.
I then used PRFCreator with all checked + signed => I got a first ZIP.
My first flash showed some error for FOTAKernel and Kernel (=boot).
So, I restored all partitions and created another ZIP without FOTAKernel => failed on the Kernel.
So, I restored all partitions and created another ZIP without FOTAKernel & Kernel => success
But, once I boot and goes to software update .. I still see the update "23.4.A.1.264" ... and I can also see that I run the exact same version ..
So, I suppose the update is not correct or partial .. (recovery is still present so, I could easily restore previous backup).
I've also tried to wipe cache and dvolk..* cache but same result.
Any idea ?
Is there a place to find all stock rom for SGP612 ?
EDIT2: let's try this one: http://www.xperiablog.net/forum/res...ct-wi-fi_sgp612_23-4-a-3-6_japan_generic.554/
EDIT3: OK, flashed and the only error was because of FOTAKernel which I don't care. Kernel was correctly flashed (+system +modem +..label).
After startup, no more update available and the expected "up-to-date" => perfect!

[D6633][FIRMWARE][5.1.1] Xperia Z3 23.4.A.1.264 [PRE-ROOTED] Customized PT

UPDATE (2016-01-09): If you have problems with SMS after flashing this try a Factory Restore, as some reported this fixed it for them.
UPDATE (2015-12-13): Since Mega errors out these days I uploaded it to some other places too, scroll down. Remember always to verify checksums on everything you are going to flash. On Windows you can install HashCheck.
UPDATE (2015-12-12): I and others used TWRP to flash ROMs and it works fine (aka no missing root, no bootloops), if you did not use it, and tried Philz or CWM and you've got issues, do try TWRP too before compaining. Also, for Xposed, if you had it before, try to UNinstall it and then REinstall it after flashing this ROM

Did you try it out already?

Yes! It works fine. Root, recovery, all OK.
The only thing I don't like is that it shows 4G instead of LTE and the icons are too separated, but that's just an aesthetic thing.
The rom works fine and fluid.

Thanks for confirmation.

hm,
most firmwares here in this forum are either uploaded up to mega.nz or drive.google.com
someone else suggested http://oceanhost.eu/

Yeah, am at it for hours and it will take more hours
Oceanhost? Up to 100Mb? umm no.

Since Mega errors out these days I uploaded it to some other places too, see OP

Thank you very much
Strongly appreciated :good:
I tried to make my own firmware with PRFCreator 1.1, downloaded the PT_23.4.A.1.264 and included SuperSU and dualrecovery but somehow I got it wrong and lost root
Downgraded to 23.0.F.1.74 and have root and dualrecovery again.
So I'll give it a try again and I hope I'll keep root this time.
Is lockeddualrecovery2.8.23 recommended for this upgrade?

That's what I bundled.

The new download source is working fine.
I used TWR to install the firmware and it worked like a charm, no problems with root.
My Z3 Dual D6633 is on 23.4.A.1.264 without any problems or bugs so far.

tks!!

what does it means that is from portugal?

It has some country specific bloatware/offers. Not really useful. But it was the only one .264 ready for D6633.
